Letter from O. D. M. Gaddis to William H. Andrews
O. D. M. Gaddis expresses his strong support for the joint statehood of Arizona and New Mexico to William H. Andrews. He feels that the conventions in Bisbee were a sham and that federal officials and representatives of corporations are determined to interfere and make sure joint statehood does not go forward. He believes the joint statehood sentiment is growing and looks forward to the upcoming convention in Phoenix. Gaddis hopes President Roosevelt will come to the aid of the proponents of joint statehood. He is worried about ballot stuffing at the voting booths.
