Jointure urged by Hidalgo to Arizona New Mexico voters
In a Porto Rico letter of Aug 24, 1906 Hon J C Hughes appeals to Arizona and New Mexico voters to support joint statehood. He argues population, land grants, education funding and federal aid favor a combined state, rebuts opposition claims, and urges citizens and labor unions to back the Hamilton Rodey plan. He warns against separate admissions and corporate meddling, stressing historical context and GOP inertia.
