The Story of Our States By JONATHAN BRACE XLVI.-NEW MEXICO AS I TS 4 1 o, Afme m I plies, New Mexico's his tory Is close f ly allied with Old Mexico. It was the Spanish who were its first ex plorers, Db Vaca visiting this region in 1536 and Coronado four years later. The natives were the Pueblo Indians, al though they are somtines errone ously reputed to have been Az tecs as they were well advanced in the arts and had a compara tively high civilization. These Indians were cInque~recl in 1598 i by Juan tie Onate, and became subject to Spianaish rule. being forced to work the- mlines and pay tribute. Missions were estab- } + lished and Santa ''. was founded about 1005. Except for at period of' toin years when the hutlians revolted and miaintained-t their italepen dence, New Mexico reimained in ier Spanish control until in .1821 f Mexico gained its indeilleialence from Spain and New Mexico became a province of lexico. Thus it remained until the out break of the Mexican war, when in 1840 Colonel Kearny marched from iort Leavenworthm with his troops, occupied Samnta lFe and declared this region a part of the United States. By the Treaty with Mexico in 1848, the upper f part of the state was formally ceded to the United State.. and the Territory of Mexico was or ganized in 1851, whlich 'reached } from Texas to California. Arizona was set off from New Mexico in 1803 and a few years later a portion was contributed to Colorado. Application for ad(1 mission as a state started in 1850, but it was not until 191(1 that New Mexico became the forty-seventh state. N'w Mexico ranks fourth in size ainu'ng the states with an } area of 122.034i square miles, but } is sl"is(ly popuh tted and accord ingly has only three electoral } votes for P'resident.
