Politics and Worn for the Interests

Delegate.ele II, b, FERGUSON arrived
in Santa Fe from Albuquerque, last evsn-
Ing and has put ina pleasant day among
his friends at the capital, says the New
Menican, This is Mr.. Fergusson's first
visit here since the election and he has
been overwhelmed with kindly greetings
and congratulations. A New Merican
scribe called on the gentleman and solicit-
cd an interview for publication. He said
there Ewere many subjects relating to the
welfare and advancement OF the Terri
tory's interests which he might touch upon
at this time, but only briefly and general
ly, and therefore any interview would
scarcely prove satisfactory. He thought
that much would depend, In the shaping OF
bis course In the next congress, on what
t%ranspired during the approaching short
session, and for that reason deemed u wise
ITO await development.
Tho delsgate-e lect expressed the hope
and the belief that New Mexico would
make giant strides toward prosperity dur.
ing the coming year; he spoke OF the
healthy condition Of the Territory's re-
sources; the improved tone in busine
and the confidence in the future as shown
by the tendency Of our own people and
outside capitalists to ~inaugurate and push
new business enterprises, n he declared
that bis recent extensive canvass OF the
several counties had more than ever i'm
press ed him with the greatness, the variety
and the solidity Of New Mexico's splendid
resources.
AS regards political matters, Mr.. Fer
gusson declined to talk. saying: ~ think
New Mexico and the country at large have
had about enough of politics for a while,
and my idea is that we should now all fall
to and talk business"
