getting OF the reunion, in regard 10 the
suggested compromise. II found the
opinion blnost unanimous" said Mr
Marion this morning, That Albuquerque
Is more interested Ia having n successful
reunion Of the gallant boys OF the Re %
Riders, than TO CRAFTY any local pride II
may have in securing the reunion fos
this place. They are oi the opinion that
II .the celebration is split up II viii be an
absolute nzzle at both places, and they
would prefer to have II held at Las Vegas
than that IL should Oe a failure.
Nevertheless our people feel that Al
buQueique under every circumstance IL
entitled TO the reunion, having recruited
more Rough Riders than any other city
in the United States. Furthermore every
officer of the regiment In New Mexico
and n majority OF the Rough
Riders themselves have expressed pref.
erence for holding the reunion here II II

curing the reunion In its entirety, but
further action In the matter will be de-
ferred until the arrival OF the committee
who went TO AriZJna TO interview Coz,
