When it comes to show down on eli.
mate Santa Fe is "out OF sight" Adyer
tise the facts.
The regular monthly reception at the
Governors residence will take place to-
morrow evening, when every one will be
welcome without any further invitation.
Splendid rains yesterday afternoon, but
too late to do the peach crop much good.
More reservoirs must be built if Santa Fe
is to enjoy an uninterrupted season Of
prosperity.
An excursion OF eight coach loads Of
people left over the narrow gauge this
morning for visit to the ancient chapel
of Lourdes at San Juan. There were 500
people in the party.
Scores Of Santa Feans who contemplate
attending the territorial fair complain that
they have written again and again to the
Albuquerque hotels and find it impossible
to secure accommodations.
That was a rafting old "fill in" the city
dads caused to be made over in Don Gas
par avenue. 1t will last until the Acequia
Madre begins to flow and then is likely to
become more dangerous than ever.
The Board of Trade continues to exert
its influence for the, good of Santa Fe.
Let every live man ia town become a

the capital city.
In letter just received by Governor
Prince from Secretary Noble, the latter
says: 81 am at my desk in good health
and ready for all the work that is before
me, which is saying good DEAL" This
efectually sets at rest the talk about the
sickness of the secretary and his possible
resignation.
1t is surprising how many people there
are in Santa Fe who do not read the
newspapers. Ain ost daily the New Mex
IcAN publishes matters of note relating to
local interests calculated to do good for
the town, and which, it is often discov-
cred, so.called leading business men
know nothing about. Read your home
paper.
1t is said by old timers that little
judicious work can be made to result in
opening out new road to Cerrillos and
San Pedro that would be from five to
eight miles shorter than the present road.
If this can be done it would serve to at
tract much trade to Santa Fe that now
goes elsewhere. Business men should
agitate the subject.
Under the quickening influences OF the
prosperity prevailing throughout all New
Mexico, the capital city's interests are
moving to the front in great shape these
days. If the people now put their Shout
ders to the car of modern progress and
unitedly push it, long strides toward per-
manent success can be accomplished dur.
ing the fall season now opening.

Mrs. A. L. Morrison, Miss Mamie and
Joe Morrison arrived this morning. They
report fine rains, good grass, fat, sleek cat
tie and large crops of hay at Mount Morri-
son and all through that part of Arizona.
However, Mrs. Morrison says she doesn't
want anyone to speak to her about any
climate but the glorious skies and exhil-
Grating atmosphere of Santa Fe. She
will do her summering at home after this
and let others 60 away and gain the ex-
perience, if they chose to, but Santa Fe
is the ne plus ultra for her.
