school by showing that he educated his

and that, as Il member OF the Illinois leI.
iStaturc, he made strong fight for
public schools. The marShalship is
still in doubt, though Major Lew
elIyn and Col. Hudson are still in the
ring and SO is Richard Mansfield White,
Of Hermosa. Col. Frank Chavez il in u
fair way to win the surveyor generalShlp.
\ gentleman from Sierra county. whose
name We do not remember, has the in
side track for the Las Cruces land Office.
They say that Steve ElkinS IL power
with this administration. They were re-
ceived courteously by tho president and
! the heads of the departments. When
/ they complimented the president on
making the appointments from the ter
ritory, he laughingly replied that he
might have to make some appointments
| the rule" They are well pleased and
| think that New Mexico will stand better
chance OF admission when she again
knocks at the door.
Judge II. J. Cuniife has strong backing
for Mexican consulate. The judges
many years experience in this section and
in Old Mexico, and his intimate acqnaint-
ance with the language, manners and
customs of tho people OF cur neighboring
republic, peculiarly fit him for the office
to which lie asprcs Il as Cruces News.
A special from Washington to the
Globe Democrat says: "Mr. Francis W.
Relard, Of the Lindell hotel, st. Louis,
arrived to-day with some strong !ndorse-
ments for the land Office at Santa Ee. He
was very quiet about ii, bnt his mission
leaked out. Mr.. Bedard viii put his
papers on hlo and start home without
waiting for the result"
Mr.. Z. l.. Vanderreer arrived home
~ fresh as Il mountain daisy and as genial
as ever, despite his failure to capture the
judicial prize he sought after. Mr.. Van
,ierveer made up his mind that Judge
Whitcman had the inside pull for this
place soon after his arrival at the national
capital, and acting. upon this in
formation he withdrew from the
contest bciore Judge Whiteman WAS
nominated. Nevertheless ne is grateful
to his friends both in Santa Fe and else
whore for their efforts in his behalf and
takes a just pride in the tiattering indorse-
ments he ereceived from such distinguished
westerners as Senator's Stanford, OF Cali
, iornia; Stewart, of Nevada Teller, of
Colorado, and from representative men at
| his former home in the state OF New
York. If the appointment had fallen
to any one within this district
there is no doubt that il would have come
to tlr. Eanderveer. Referring to the
/ OF her New Mexicans now ut Washington
he SAYS they are not in harmony and that
most of them seem to be uneasy about
their own chances, hence occupy the better
part OF their time trying to bust the
chances Of the other fellow. As betw cen
/ the candidates for governor he thinks
Judge Princes star is in the ascendant,
and would not be surprised to learn that
the nomination had been made at any
moment.
