Special correspondence OF the New Mexican.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, Dec. 1.-The
Democratic bosses have consulted with
the chairman OF the Democratic central
committee, W. B. Chllders, and orders
have been issued to whip everybody into
line and attempt the organization Of the
coming Legislature regardless of all conse-
quences. The contests initiated in Rio
Arriba county against Jaramillo, member
elect of the council, and Read, member
elect of the house on the Republican
ticket, were simply put ill for blind and
in order to have something to 60 on; the
Democratic executive committee here
know well that these two men were
honestly elected, but if they succeed in
organizing the legislature, Jaramillo and
Read are to be fred out ''instanter. ]"
Frank Perea here is to he used
to clear out Mel9uiades Chaves,
although the latter's majority is
very large; Gable and E4sley, of
Santa Fe county are to come in and help
organize the former is all right for them
and the latter is being worked on with
might and main.
learn from trustworthy source that
Romulo Martinez and Chairman Childers
had quite wordy set-to here lately; the
latter insisted that Martinez ought to go
in and help organize; the former said /:
Il failed to receive a ma ority of the votes
nd do I IL -,
story then goes that Chairman Childers
insisted that it was his, Martinez, duty
to go in nevertheless; the party demand
ed it and so on and so forth. Then and
there Martinez, am told, did not give in );
but Chairman Childers instructed the
Santa te local bosses to work him, and it
is believed down here that Martinez Will
succumb and 60 in.
The Democratic leaders and executive
committee men here express great con-
tempt for the territorial officials and
Judge Seeds and seem not to care; they
say that they have the Santa Fe county
officials with them, and that they Will
hsve a sufficient force here to overawe
the secretary, the governor and the
court, and do pretty much as they
please. They count considerably upon
the cooperation of the officials of your
county. Ancheta is to be kicked out the
first minute; and Chaves, Slower and
Perea are to be made fun of and used as
q foot ball whenever possible.
The executive committe here, | hear,
is helping your Democratic leaders in the
preparation of charges against Secretary
Thomas and Judge Seeds, and the whole
power and influence OF the united Demo-
cratic leaders all over the territory is to
to be used to get them out, especially
Secretary Thomas, before the last Mon
day in this month.
If the Democratic leaders here carry
ont their plan of organizing they want to
send Judge Lee up to your district; they
claim they can do good deal with him,
but nevertheless, privately they cuss him
and want to get rid OF him they have
spread the report that they have great
influence with him, but that Is for their
own purposes, but nevertheless, if they
can give him lick they will do it.
They expect to organize and say they
will not be fooled as they were once or
twice before. 1t behooves you Santa Fe
people to be on the look out; you have
INSCRIPTIONS men to deal with. Nv
