President Haggerman Here.

President J. j. Haggerman of the
Pecos Valley R. R., arrived this noon
from Colorado with his private car and
party, continuing on to the Pecos Valley
this afternoon. With Mr.. Haggerman
are Percy Haggerman, r J.Bolles, AL
fred Uthlein, Eugene Wuesthoff and a
.C. Campbell. These latter gentlemen
are to be shown over the valley by Mr..
Haggerman and they will be able to do
that section considerable good.
With the party were Benz B. Law
renee and wife and Mrs. c. B. Berger
of Denver, who are en- route to the City
of Mexico on pleasure trip. Mrs.
Berger is a daughter of eX-U. S. Sena-
tor n. p. Hill.
President Haggerman had the follow
ing to say:
The extension of the Pecos Valley
railroad hinges upon the return of gen
eral prosperity to the country. No new
railroads are building now, except parts
of great systems, and the procuring Of
money for building the new line de-
ponds upon the financial conditions,
tariff uncertainties, general business
conditions clearing up. l think this
will be brought about in a short time
and the proposed extension of the Pee
os road will likely be put through be-
fore the end of the year.
The sugar beet factory now in
operation at Eddy will be enlarged,
aud another one, three or four times
as large built soon. However, the
building of the new one depends very
much upon the character of the sugar
schedule in the new tariff bill. | think
it is probable there will be a reasonable
| specific duty on raw sugar and an ad-
ditional duty on refined sugar, at least
equal to the export bounty paid by
| foreign countries l do not believe
the government will pay bounty as it
did under the old Mckinley bill, and I
| think no bounty should be paid. With
| fair protection | believe the sugar in
| dustry can be extended to large pro-
portions in New Mexico. Owing to
climatic and other conditions, New
Mexico produces the richest sugar
beet ever raised, and the demonstra-
tiOn of this fact, made in the Pecos
valley, is worth millions to the ter
ritOry.
The exemption bill now before the
Legislative assem- bly,, will, if passed, do
much to encourage the investment of
capital in the sugar business in the
territory. The legislature is to be
CONNIE nded for its enlightened action
in encouraging foreign capital to seek
fields of investment here, and this is
certainly a glaring contract with a
good many Of'the western states, and
the contract is all in favor of New
Mexico. This fact is known, comment
ed upon and appreciated by eastern in
vestors, and will bring rich returns in

County Commissioners.

At the meeting last evening of the
county com missioners, postmaster and
eX-couuty commissioner John Julian
appeared with a letter from County
Attorney Harvey calling the ex-com-
missioner's attention TO the fact that
under misconstruction of the statutes
he had drawn $50 year for services as
road supervisor. The attorney asked
him to please refund.
Mr.. Julian stated to the board that
the county owed him for three years
services of county road supervisor. Mr..
Courchesne said that where commits
sioner actually supervised the roads he
was entitled to pay for the same. Mr..
Julian was requested to draw up his
claim.

By an unfortunate com bination of
circumstance which will sometimes
occur even in the best regulated news
paper offices, Mr.. Davenport, the tenor,
was overlooked in yesterdays report
Of the library concert. The omission
was the legitimate outcome of trying
to write up a musical criticism and at
the same time answer a thousand and
one questions from several people on
matters of no more musical moment
than the moon is like green cheese:
with the mind further distracted by
attending to the wants and no wants at
ali of visitors to the Office, and answer
ing frantic yowls from the composing
room for copy Immediately if
not sooner-and the sooner the b 1T
ter.
Gentle, brown eyed, blue eyed,
chestnut haired, blone haired, red
headed reader, if you can't realize this
distracting state OF things, just you try
to work the game" your own dear
self, and see how quickly you will get
up a stump. Mr.. Davenport has a good,
lyric voice and is pleasing singer to
listen to. He has made himself espe-
cially valuable in Y. M. G. A, and
church circles by his kindly and timely
assistance, and he is worthy addition
to the Ell Paso musical world. So
pardner, you'll forgive US this trip,
won't you?
