It seems to me it is not. It has occurred to me that the haste which is now being made for Its admission is suspiciousand perhaps fraudulent. and the same remark would apply to other Territories which are striving for statehood and are not shown by the last census to have sufficient population. Nor is it any guaranty that this Territory will have sufficient population induced and encouraged to immigrate to it from the fact of admission. such has not been the history of States admitted with a small population heretofore in &ll cases. I refer to the State of Nevada. which I believe today has a smaller population than it had when admitted into the Union. The census shows that there are but 62.260 persons within that State.
