Claims on placers covered certain areas, and vein mines were located on the ledge vertically, in general not following dips, spurs and angles.

CREATION OF TERRITORY.


CHAPTER XVI. CREATION OF TERRITORY.


REAL CAUSES FOR CREATION OF TERRITORY - EF- FORTS OF CHAS. D. POSTON - INTRODUCTION OF BILL FOR CREATION BY MR. ASHLEY - PASSAGE OF SAME THROUGH HOUSE AND SENATE - SIGNING OF SAME BY PRESIDENT LINCOLN - DESCRIPTION OF PASSAGE OF BILL BY CHAS. D. POSTON - APPOINTMENTS OF OFFICIALS OF TERRITORY-STARTING OF OFFI- CIALS FOR TERRITORY.


Undoubtedly the Confederate invasion of Arizona and New Mexico, and the organization of Arizona into a separate Territory by the Confederates, which was acknowledged by the Confederate Government, with the discovery of gold in large quantities in Arizona, of which the Government at that time stood in great need, were the real causes of the passage of the bill through Congress in the session of 1862-63 for the creation of the Territory of Arizona.


Charles D. Poston, who was in Washington at that time, aided by General Heintzelman, was active in promoting the measure, which had the support of Ben Wade of Ohio, in the Senate and Ashley, of Ohio, in the House.


On March 12th, 1862, Mr. Ashley introduced a bill for the organization of the Territory of Arizona, which was referred to the Committee on Territories. This bill, adopting the sugges- tion of New Mexico, fixed the north and south-

eastern boundary line of the new Territory on the meridian of 32 degrees west of Washington, which is 109° 2' 59" 25 thirds west of Green- wich, and included the area as at present in- cluded within the boundaries of the State of Arizona, with the exception of about 12,000 square miles lying west of the Colorado River, which was subsequently annexed to the State of Nevada.


This bill, after a lively debate, was passed through the House by a small majority on May 8th. 1862. Watts, the Delegate from New Mexico, and Ashley, from Ohio, were its chief advocates in the House, and Wheeler of New York, led the opposition. It was argued that Arizona's white population of 6500 evidently included the Mexican population, for, at that time, by the best accounts, the native born Amer- ican population was not over 600, and they, and the four thousand civilized Indians were entitled to a civil government and protection as citizens of the United States, which it was contended they could not receive as long as it was under It the territorial government of New Mexico. was also argued that the great mineral wealth of the country was ample justification for the necessary expenditure in creating a new Terri- tory. The opposition claimed that the popula- tion never had been sufficient for a territory; that the 6500 population shown in the census in- cluded Mexicans and half breeds, totally unfit for American citizenship, that the American popu- lation as enumerated at that time had been driven out and that the territory was in the posses- sion of rebels and hostile Indians. Under such

conditions it was contended that no real protec- tion could be given, and that a territorial govern- ment would be a mere farce; that the bill was in- tended to benefit office seekers, and that in view of the great expenses of the government, Con- gress had no right to divert any portion of the public monies for their benefit, but should con- serve it all for the protection of the country against its rebel and savage foes. By this bill slavery was prohibited and the Capitol was lo- cated at Tucson.


In the Senate the bill was supported by Mc- Dougal of California and Wade of Ohio. After some debate the bill was postponed from June, 1862, to December of the same year. Final ac- tion was taken on the 20th day of February, 1863, when the clause designating Tucson as the capitol was removed, and, under the champion- ship of Senator Wade, the bill was finally passed by a vote of twenty-five to twelve and signed by President Lincoln on the 24th day of February, 1863.


Charles D. Poston, in giving his connection with the final passage of this bill says: "At the meeting of Congress in Dec. 1862 I returned to Washington, made friends with Lincoln, and proposed the organization of the terr. of Arizona. Oury (who I suppose had been elected dele- gate in '62 to succeed McGowan) was in Rich- mond, cooling his heels in the ante-chambers of the confederate congress without gaining admis- sion as a delegate from Arizona. Mowry was a prisoner in Yuma, cooling his head from the political fever which had afflicted it, and medi- tating on the decline and fall of a West Point

graduate. There was no other person in Wash- ington, save Gen. Heintzelman, who took any in- terest in Arizona affairs. They had something else to occupy their attention, and did not even know where Ariz. was. Old Ben Wade, chair- man of the senate com. on territories, took a lively and bold interest in the organization of the territory, and Ashley, chairman of the com. in the house, told me how to accomplish the object. He said there were a number of mem- bers of the expiring congress, who had been de- feated in their own districts for the next term, who wanted to go west and offer their services to the 'galoots' and if they could be grouped and a satisfactory slate made, they would have influ- ence enough to carry the bill through congress. Consequently an 'oyster supper' was organized, to which the 'lame ducks' were invited, and then and there the slate was made, and the ter- ritory was virtually organized. So the slate was made and the bargain concluded, but toward the last it occurred to my obfuscated brain that my name did not appear on the slate, and in the language of Daniel Webster I exclaimed: 'Gen- tlemen, what is to become of me?' Gurley politely replied, 'O, we will make you Indian Agent.' So the bill passed, and Lincoln signed all the commissions, and the oyster supper was paid for, and we were all happy, and Arizona was launched upon the political sea."


In March following President Lincoln made appointments for the territory as follows:


Governor: John A. Gurley of Ohio, who died August 18th, and, on the 21st, John N. Goodwin, of Maine, was appointed in his place.
