So. according to the census of 1Q00. the Mexicans in the two Territories numbered 125.000. Of whites In New Mexico there would be. by the census of 1900. 97.500. find in Arizona 70.000. making 167.500 whites. as against 125.500 Mexicans. But assuming that the immigration into those Territories since 1900 has gone on at the same ratio that existed between 1890 and 1900. there would be an addition to those Territories of 64.000. I can not conceive that such an immigration into those Territories would be composed of any class except whites. If that is so. and that number be added to the 167.500 already there it would indicate a total white population in the two Territories at the present time of 231.500. as against 125.500 Mexicans. I must admit also.
