Dakota memorial on statehood and division in Dakota

The Sioux Falls memorial argues for Dakota statehood under the existing constitution, cites Chief Justice Taney and statehood advocates, and outlines votes and historical precedent. It stresses the benefits and broad support for division, urging Congress to submit the issue to a full popular vote.

Division of Dakota Aims to Create Separate Southern State

A northern member introduced a memorial and joint resolution in Bismarck urging Congress to divide Dakota along the 40th parallel and admit the southern portion as a state. The measure cites universal support in territorial conventions, the large area and population, and notes public debt division by region. The piece discusses political queries and urges timely division toward statehood.
