Abstract
"Idaho was admitted to statehood on the third of July and Wyoming would also have come in at the same time had the bill, which was passed, engrossed and signed, been adopted with the amendment of the house. The senate passed the Wyoming bill by a party vote of 29 to 18. This action was for no other purpose than to strengthen the republicans in the upper branch of congress and to hold that power as an unqualified negative on national legislation against the adverse popular uprising for years to come."
