new MEXICO day.
Appropriate Exercises Held at Omaha Ex-
position = Address by Ex-Governor
Prince-Invitation Extended to
All to Visit the Sunshine
State"


New Mexico day at the Omaha cx-
position was properly commemorated,
though with simplicity, as the absence
of funds did not permit the free distri-
button Of fruit and badges, which made
the similar occasion at Chicago memoir
able. All of the New Mexican visitors
in the city gathered promptly on Tues
day morning in the spacious mineral
building, in gala attire and representing
all sections Of the territory. Soon they
were met by former residents, like the
Rumsey family, Rev. G.. A. Neeff and
wife and others, all glad to renew old
acquaintance.
Commissioner Leeson had appropriate
ly decorated the New Mexico depart
ment, and Mr.. Albright marshaled the
representatives of the press. Hon. l.
b. Prince, as president of the commits
sion, called the meeting to order and
after brief preliminaries made the ad-
dress of the day He commenced BY
expressing the regret of Governor Otero
that official business prevented his at
tendance and by words Of congratula-
tlOu w OuV CAPOolVioHs oihSlUiS NV phS
wonderful success of their enterprise,
and to Commissioner Leeson at the eX-
cellent exhibit he has brought together
from New Mexico under adverse circum-
stances.
He then proceeded to tell the assem-
blage of the boundless resources of the
territory, comparing it in turn with each
of the eastern states and finally with
Colorado and California, and showing
conclusivcly that there is no part Of the
Union so richly endowed or with such
prospects of future development as the
Sunshine State After dwelling on
the climate, which makes life happ-
ness instead of misery, he invited all
present to come and see for themselves,
promising hospitable reception to every
visitor
The address evidently made deep
impression and was received with much
applause.
The band then played "La Paloma' in
honor of New Mexico and in short time
the formal exercises were concluded and
the social features of the occasion
formed q pleasing conclusion to the
celebration.
