GOVERNOR OTERO at The CAPITAL
Tells Of New Mexicos Prosperity and Her
Coming Statehood.

A special dispatch to the Globe
Democrat from Washington says: Gov.
NJ. A. Otero, OF, New Mexico, whose
father and grandfather before him were
residents of that territory and promi-
nently identified with it's development,
is in Washington looking after the in
terests of the territory. He is a pleasant
hammered man, short, but thick set,
with clear, keen eye, under large,
high forehead. Gov. Otero is highly
enthusiastic over all that pertains to the
territory.
"For the first time in the history of
the Republican party, believe, said he
today, "their national platform names
territory specifically as recommended
for admission to statehood. We went
to Philadelphia early, engaged fine
rooms at a leading hotel, and talked and
entertained for New Mexico. The re-
suit was the strong recommendation for
statehood In the party platform.
"Financiallv and otherwise, the terri
tory is In an enviable position. Lately
we have been paying off some of our
bonds, which is quite an innovation.
The revenues are large; there is conf
Portable sum in the treasury, and our
new laws affecting the collection of
taxes are working excellently. There
has been great prosperity in our coal
mines, especially q. the Salado, Bloss-
burg, Gardiner, Gallup and other mines.
A considerable trackage of railroad
has been built, opening up these proper
ties. The grazing industry, especially
with sheep, has increased enormously
in recent months"

CENSUS MATTERS.
Hon. Pedro Sanchez, census enumera-
tor, returned to the capital today after
a brief visit to his home in the beautiful
Taos valley, to Mora end Las Vegas
Mr.. Sanchez states that the census
work is now being rapidly closed up,
the enumerators having as rule per-
formed their labors with celebrity and
thoroughness which commands his ad-
miraton Some surprising gains in
population and industrial development
have been reported, but all such facts

CHANGES IN INDIAN SERVICE.
With the beginning of the new fiscal
year, July 1, several changes will take
place in the conduct of the Indian edu-
cational work here. The Pueblo Indian
reserve day school, now and for years
under the direct supervision Of the
Pueblo Indian agent here, will then fall
to the care of the two heads of the nom
reservation schools at Santa Fe and AL
buquerque. There are twenty-five of
these schools, and they are equally di-
vided. so that they will be conducted
under the supervision of Professor
Crandall, of Santa Fe, and Professor
Collins, of albuquerque. Owing to this
change, the Indian office has allowed
each of these supervisory officers an
additional assistant clerk Miss Anna
B. Bush, late matron at the Santa Fe
school, goes as Professor Collins clerk
at Albuquerque, and Jose Valdez, of the
agency, will probably be assigned as
Professor CrandaIps assistant Colonel
Walpole halls the change as one calcu-
lated to rebound greatly to the benefit
of the education of the Indian youth.
During his administration he has shown
what energetic attention to educational
interests can do toward stimulating the
Indian to patronize the schools. Indeed,
the record he has made is extraordi-
nary, for when he assumed control of
the Pueblo agency there were but seven
day schools, with 1873 pupils in attend
ance, whereas there are now twenty
two schools. with SIG pupils.

| A trip through the Santa Fe noun
tains reveals the fact that great deal
of substantial work in the line of devel-
opment is being done in the district be-

! of Willow creek, on the Pecos. On the
divide between Macho and Indian

ising vein, which shows 10-nch streak
of highly mineralized quartz, looking
like gray copper. The vein is 5 or feet
thick. No tests for actual values have
as yet been made. as Jones says he Is
satisfied to sink deeper before he goes
to the trouble Of securing assays.
COPPER CLAIMS.

so doing considerable work in the same
locality. Five miles from Glorieta the
Bradley gold-copper claims are show

development. An extraordinary mass
Of low-grade ore Is here visible from
grass roots to the bottom of the shaft,
40 feet down. At the mouth of Willow
creek A. W. Alexander. the well-known
Cerrlllos miner. has had force at

Is also now to claim popular attention.
Seven miles UP the gulch north Of Can
