HUNGRY FOR THE TRUTH.
Many Applications Now Coming to
the New Mexican for InfOrma-
ti0n on New Mexico.

When it comes to advertising New
Mexico and her resourceful attractions
the New MEXICAN claims to occupy po-
sition at the very top of the heap. Not
day passes but that from half dozen to
a dozen applications come by mil ask
ing the NEW MEXICAN to forward infor-
nation touching the territory and the in
ducements offered to home seekers. Dur
ing the past thirty days, in fact, ever
since it became heralded about the coun-
try that we had recently issued Sp ecial
Illustrated immigration edition, these ap-
pllcations have become more numerous
than ever. 1t seems that the people have
turned their faces toward this fair land,
the future sunshine state, and are posi-
lively hungry for facts and figures and
descriptive matter dealing with our re-
sources. Some of these letters of in
| quiry inclose postage stamps for reply,
| but the most of them do not 80 that In
| the course of time the cost of answering
them amounts to no uncomfortable sum,
| but the NEW MEXICAN believes in casting
bread upon the waters, and so makes it a
rule to give these appeals from seekers
after truth careful and prompt attention.
Appended are few letters indicating the
| nature of the queries coming to this Of
| fee.
