December 10, 1902.--Submitted by Mr. Beveridge and ordered to be printed. (394 pages, with two maps.); shelved case 1. Albert J. Beveridge (1862-1927) was an American historian and US senator from Indiana. He was an intellectual leader of the Progressive Era and a biographer of Chief Justice John Marshall and President Abraham Lincoln. He supported Theodore Roosevelt's progressive views and was the keynote speaker at the new Progressive Party convention which nominated Roosevelt for U.S. President in 1912. In 1901, Beveridge became chair of the Senate Committee on Territories, which allowed him to support statehood for Oklahoma. However, he blocked statehood for New Mexico and Arizona because he deemed the territories too sparsely occupied by white people.[wikipedia] Oklahoma and the Indian Territory would not be admitted until 1907, combined as Oklahoma, and Arizona and New Mexico were both not admitted until 1912. 1338719.
