GREAT POSSIBILITIES.
The Resources of San Juan County and 9
Proposed Railroad.
lFhrmingtOn Times

w e VIII Ilu'CS.J
There has been a great deal of rail
road talk during the past year, and it
is said that several of the companies
have their eyes on this section. A hazy
idea seems to exist, however, that this
county depends upon it's fruit crop and
that, as it only takes a few trains to
haul out an immense fruit crop, the
question of returns is sufficient to him
into the county at this time. But it is
not so much what San Juan county
now ppropduces as what she can pro-
duce, that ought to be the inducement
to a railroad, and also what she needs
in exchange for our productions. We
have no lumber in this section, yet we
need it. and our Arizona neighbors need
it. On the other hand San Juan con-
tains the possibilities of numerous
great manufacturing industries, tan
ming, creameries, canneries, glass and
earthenware, not to speak of more. Our
supplies of coal are almost immeasura-
BILE; natural gas we know to be present,
with every probability of vast supplies
of coal oil being under Jul feet. But to
develop all these things requires capt.
tai. Capital will not come without alb
solute assurance of railroad transport
tation. Thus very much of our possible
prosperity hinges absolutely on the ac-
ton of the railroads in the near future.
At the same time, by demonstrating
the manufacturing and other possibili-
ties of the section the people IAN do
much towards ensuring the advent of
the railroads.

Resident oil New Mexico.

Several of the ultra Bryanite papers
are worrying greatly because President
Mckinley may see fit to appoint Hon.
Daniel Mcmillan to the indgeship of the
fifth district. Mr.. Mcmillan is no longer
a stranger to this territory, he has be-
come a resident of it and has been such
now for some time. His appointment,
therefore, will not be a violation of any
home rule principle. But aside from
that fact, it is the fault of the Repub-
licans in the territory that they did not
unite several months ago upon one of
their own number in recommending him
for appointment, a recommendation
which undoubtedly President Mckinley
would have been pleased to take into
consideration when he makes the APP
pointment.

Printers Ink and Public Education.

The New Mexican is in receipt of the
of Las Cruces which shows a gratifying
advance in the cause>of public educa-
ton in that town. When a board of ed
ucation begins to see the value of prin-
the advancement of the public schools,
a step forward has been made. The
catalogue as an introduction dwells on
the climatic advantages of Las Cruces,
has been made in educational lines, en-
deavoring thus to prove that Las Cru
ces is an ideal home for h~ealthseekers.
Men with families will always ask
place to which they intend to go and
settle, and this little pamphlet will do
much toward turning their faces to-
ward Las Cruces.
After the introduction, the catalogue
gives in brief outline, the curriculum,
the methods of discipline and teaching
and an alphabetical list of the 1923 pu-
pills enrolled in the public schools. The
book is illustrated with half tone pic
lures of the pretty school house and of
views in the Mesilla. valley. The pro-
gressive board of education in charge of
the schools is Presiliano Moreno, presi-
dent: Luis D.. Valdez, secretary; Jose
r. Lucero. The example of Las Cruces
in thus setting forth in attractive man
ner it's public school facilities and al
followed by every other town in the
territory which has school advantages
worth while falling about.

A Falsehood Nailed.

John Duffy, the well known and
sometimes reckless colored man, has
returned to town from Santa Fe, where
he served a year in the p~enitentiary
less the time he was employed as a SER
want in Governor Otero's household
Las Vegas Optic.
The above is an unmitigated false
hood, that is as to Duffy's having done
any service for Governor Otero, and
published simply to injure the govern
or. The man Duffy vas in the peni-
Tertiary from the day he arrived in the
city until the day he left it, and the
governor never employed him and the
man was never in his house. 1t is GER
tainly peculiar that a paper, published
In Las Vegas, the governors home
town, and for whose advancement he is
doing everything within his power,
should stoop to such contemplate bust
ness in order to injure him with his fell
low citizens. Leading attorneys have
informed the New Mexican that the
is libelous, and were the governor
to file suit. in their opinion he could re-
cover heavy damages.

tion: $4s, 600, 900 the coal production;

ARIZONAS STATEHOOD ASPIRATIONS,
They Were Dealt a Stunning Blow by TIL
Democratic Vote,
Denver Republican,

The defeat of Governor N. o. Muir
ply, Republican, by Marcus A. Smith,
the Democratic candidate for delegate
to congress from Arizona, has been a
setback for the statehood aspirations of
that territory.
Business men and others who have
been interested in putting Arizona's
statehood claims before the people of
the territory for approval, were sur
prised at the result of the vote, Smith
having a majority of about 1000 over
Murphy out of $1,000 votes cast. 1t Is
claimed that the chief factor in the de-
feat of the Republican statehood ticket
was the Mormon vote of the territory.
Ten thousand Mormons have settled in
the upper part of Arizona. They are
and are consequently not in favor Of
statehood, believing hat the admission
of Arizona would bring thousands Of
immigrants. Murphy expected = ma
jority of the Mormon vote, on accalint
of his woman's suffrage views, whereas
1t Is now apparent that the Norm ms
voted solidly against him.
Arizona is the only terrific y in which
the question of statehood entered poll
tics. Inasmuch dis the vote Was against
the statehood ticket, it Is felt that Ari-
IONA must now take it's cha .ces with
the other territories. GoverLNr Muir
II v and other statehood le.a.e's in Ari-
roma claim that they will organize a
commission and go before congress to
plead for the admission of the territory, |
but 1t is generally felt that the vote has
temporarily settled the matter and that
Arizona's individual claims cannot very |
we'll be put forward in the face of the
contrary expression Of her people as
at the polls.

Grant County Changing for the Better

In studying the recent campaign there
are some funny and some singular cir
cnmstances connected with it.. One of
the funny circumstances is the follow
ing: The two Democratic papers IN
Grant county, the Silver City Independ-
ent and the Deming sheet, made a very
bitter, venomoLs and constant attack
upon the territorial administration.
They did this for months prior to the
election and during the campaign they
kept it up. The result in Grant county
was that from a strong Democratic
county it became a doubtful county, CIV
ing Larrazolo, the Democratic candidate
for congress, comparatively speaking a
small majority over the Republican can
didate, viz. 1873 votes, when two years
ago it gave a Democratic majority
against Pedro Perea of SAT votes. Four
years ago they gave a Democratic mas
jority of over 1000 against T. B. Catron,
who was the Republican candidate. In
the recent election the county also elect
ed two Republican county commission
ers, a Republican sheriff, a Republican
county clerk and Il Republican collector
and treasurer, these being the most i'm
portant offices. Besides, the admins
tration in Santa Fe still lives and the
chances of Governor Otero's reappoint-
ment are most excellent.

Governor Thomas, of Colorado, is
bound that his administration shall end
amidst the pomp and pyrotechnics of a
real war. He has modified a company
of cavalry to descend upon the hungry
Indians who are shooting a buck or two
in western Colorado in order to keep the
wolf from the door. The campaign that
will follow is bound to excite the admira-
ton of the military leaders of the world
and will doubtless result in the Indians
being chased across the Colorado boun-
Diary into Utah, from where they will
quietly steal back to their reservation.
