TANNER INAUoURATED.
The Oath Of Office Administered to the Cover
nor Of Illinois.

SPRINGFIELD, Illinois, Januaryj11 -
Never since Illinois was admitted into
the sisterhood of states has the inaugu-
ration of governor been attended
with the wild jubilauon, pomp and
ceremony, the display and pageant,
that attended to-day the swearing In
OF Captain John h. Tanner. Con-
scous Of the fact that its early over
throw Is inevitable, aud that 1t was
probably the last victory It would be
able to celebrate, tho "Chicago ma
chine', "Republican Tammany",
"Twelve forty-five CLUB" az 1t is
variously designated by Its friends and
opponents, let itself loose and gave
itself up to day Of wild abandon.
Every Chicago ward captain had 10 his
room cases of wine and boxes Of cigars
for the entertainment of his brethren
from the country; but amidst all the
Jubilation, there was an aroma OF
funeral-baked meats, and a reckless
ness of prodigality that recalled the
warning of the Holy Writ: "Eat,
drink aud be merry, for tomorrow ye
die" 1t was estimated at 8 O'Clock
this morning that not less than $4,000
strangers had arrived in the city, either
to take part in or witness the various
features Of the Inauguration.
Governor Altgeld's address was dig
nified and courteous. After the ad-
ministration OF the oath of Office to
Governor. elect Tanner, the latter de-
livered his inaugural address. A gen.
eral reception in the governors rooms
folio wed.
The inaugural ball to be held on the
legislative floor of the state house to-
night, will, it is expected, rival some
lively functions of similar nature,
stories of which have been waited from
New York at infrequent intervals.
Sandwiches and lemonade punch are
to be barred from the supper-room.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., January Ill
1t is said that, with three exceptions, all
the Illinois republican congressman
have refused to pay the full quota of
their assessments toward the cost of the
inauguration ceremonies at Springfield
to-day. Ordinarily, the citizens Of
Springfield have been content aud will
ling to contribute the money to defruy
the inauguration expenses, but this
year, when it became known that the
machine intended to spend at least
500, 900, they kicked In the traces. So |
an assessment was made upon the repu
blican office holders of all the first and |
second-class cities in the state, and
upon the republican congressman
Some Of the latter, it is said, were asked
to contribute as much as $1,000; hence
there was kick and howl, . point
blank refusal, and a staying away from
Springfield to-day.

New Mexico presents precisely the

New Mexico presents precisely the
same advantages. In her beautiful ele-
waited valleys the sun shines every day
throughout the year. Diseases of the
lungs are unknown and catarrh is never
heard of in this territory. In no other
part of the country are the advantages
for money making so numerous as in
New Mexico. Many of her industries are
as yet IN a state of embryo. New towns
are continually springing up and forcing
their way to the front. There are mill
ions to be made in the beet sugar indus
try here during the next few years. Her
mines offer uncommon inducements to
the prospector and mining investor alike
Horticulture has been for years very
profitable industry, and along these lines
development Is going on at rapid pace
So is it through the long list of indus
tries. Statehood for New Mexico would
mean advantages that can hardly be esti-
mated, but the status already attained
must be made known to the people Of
the country at large. Then will New
Mexico be received into the sisterhood of
states which constitutes the grand Union
one and iuseparable.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1897-07-01
STATEHOOD FOR NEW MEXICO.

There are many good and substantial
reasons why New Mexico should have the
long sought and we'll earned crown of
statehood, while on the other hand not
single logical argument can be adduced
against this desired boon. One thing is
clear enough, and this is that in order to
attain the desired end the question of
admission must be pushed to the front
and kept there by constant agitation. In
this phase of the matter the New MEXICAN
proposes to take prominent part be-
lieving that In the end, Which in the very
nature of things can not be far off, its
efforts in this direction will be crowned
with success. But one newspaper cannot
bear the whole burden, and the agitation
now on for statehood should be made to in
clude the honest and constant effort of
every citizen and newspaper inthe territory
of New Mexico. 1t is only by combined
effort that the end sought can be attained,
and now is the time to get into harness
where the exertion of pulling together
may be practiced. This is the secret of
all great moves where the government is
party to the proposed contract, and in
this particular instance the government
has solemn promise to redeem, made to
the people of New Mexico by its repre-
sentative, General Kearney, and reiterated
by clause in the treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo. The United States government
will not and cannot refuse to recognize
these promises if properly and energetic
ally set before the authorities at Wash
ington. One reason for 30 long delaying
the fulillment of this solemn compact on
the part of the government is found in
the fact that the territory has been kept
in the background. Very little is known
of New Mexico in the east. The territory
is generally supposed to be long stretch
of desert land, producing nothing more
valuable than cacti and hostile Indians.
1t is really lamentable to observe the
dense ignorance respecting New Mexico
in the great eastern centers of population.
That we have few mines is generally
conceded, but this is about the extent of
our productive capacity according to the
average easterner. From hyRienic
point of view her advantages are just be-
coming known to the world. During the
past few years the rush of travel has been
directed towards southern California, and
fortunes have been made and lost in a
single day in speculations there. The
continual development of this section of
the country is assured because in that
region can be found what multitudes from
the east and northwest have sought in
vain--freedom from many of those dread
diseases 80 prevalent throughout other
parts of the Union.

agement to say that the terrible wreck
which occurred near Missouri City on
Saturday night was one of those unfore'

the reach of human Intervention. The
plan of construction throughout the entire
Wabash system is careful and substantial
and nothing probably but the unfortunate
and unusual combination of circumstances
which caused the disaster of Saturday
night would have weakened the bridge
over Yowles creek. In rebuilding, how
ever, the dreadful warning which has
shocked the community should be duly
needed and result in extraordinary pre-

THE HORTICULTURAL FAIR,

Now that it has been decided definitely
to hold horticultural fair in this city
during the month of September, it be-
hooves every person having the future of
New Mexico at heart to put a shoulder to
the wheel, and labor faithfully for the
success of this proposed exhibition,
which will to great extent represent the
enterprise and patriotism of our citizens.
There is no reason why it should not be
made rousng success-the kind of sue
cess that our people will look back upon
for years after with pride and pleasure
All the elements of successful exhibi.
tion are at hand, and the only thing re-
qured is good faithful work on the part
of those intereste land every man, wo-
man and child in the territory is inter
ested or ought to be.
In the selection of his committees Mr..
Boyle has exercised excellent Judgment
and 1T would be difficult to improve upon
the personnel of these espective bodies.
Without exception they are made up Of
gentleme who will use every possibleex
ertion to insure that high degree of sue
cess which this great undertaking de-
serves.
The proposition starts out under very
favorable auspices. The horticultural
yield will be unusually heavy this season,
and it therefore follows that an advan
tageous showing of products along these
lines can be made. Then again thu
pro- ect is launched with the assured sup
port of men who have the reputation o
achieving success in whatever they under
take. On the whole the outlook is brigh
for most successful exhibition.

get the town marshals aud oity chiefs OF
police TO make careful investigation
and report the number to be found in
each town and city on given day. This
is good time of the year to make the
count, for most of the tramps will be

cause it is harvest season and work is
plentiful in the country. The average

The lark went up, the mower whet his

On golden meads kline Illuminating lay,

Just as today.

In the green wheat the poppy burst atiame
Wild rose and woodbine garlanded the
