My advice TO you today, as you leave
this school, is to take with CompOsure
whatever may come to you. All ambi-
tiOus men aim high. but seldom reach
their highest expectations. Some men,
however, go about their work bllndly and
with no definite purpose In life 1t seems
TO me a crime for people always to mean
well and yet never reach their well mean
ing.
MY friends. these diplomas mean much
to you. They show that you have equipped
yourselves for your life work. They tes-
tTy that you are not mOuntebanks or
charlatans. The day Of raw leather men
has gone by forever, and we are glad that
IL IS so.
Education is now demanded. not only
in the learned professions, but in every
branch of business and trade as well !

The final thought which I desire to

Rev. Joseph McConuell's mus
ical lecture Monday evening was
a success in every way. A large
audience was attracted. In fact,
a number of persons left the hall
on account of not being able to
find seats. The financial results
were very gratifying. The en-
tertainment was given under the
aus plces of the Episcopal ladies'
guild, and the profits were enough
to paint the church and make
other much needed improvements.
The lecture itself was a real
treat. The lime light views of
old-world scenes famous in song
and story were excellent, and an
air of reality was impaired to
them by Mr.. McConnell's ami
mated accounts of his own ex-
periences in the localities repre-
sented. The musical part of the
entertainment was suited to the
scenes produced and was much
enjoyed.

EDITOR CHIEFrAIN;

AfeA RN raAAfA 49,
We wish to call the attention
of the cattlemen Of Socorro coun-
ty and the territory in general to
the danger that is fast approach
ing us from the depredations of
sheep herds from all over the ter
ritory. They have been con-
stantly closing in on the ranges
of the cattlemen for the last ten
years. They have been gradual
ly getting the best of US in the
laws of the territory until they
have got the law on their side.
It seems that by law they have
right to come right up to a
mans patented claims and if
anything is done to them the
offender" as he is called, is
tried by a Mex an jury and sent
to the penitentiary for a term Of
from five to fifteen years.
Can't something be done before
it is too late? Can't the law pro-
tect the cattlemau as we'll as any
one else? Has not the cattleman
any rights whatever? Does the
sheepmau own this territory If
so, since when? There must be
a stop put to this some way. If
it can't be done one way let us
try another. We stay at home
and attend to our business. Sheep
herders come from all over the
country and Craze on Our ranges.
If we tell them they are crowding
us too close they are on the war
path at once and ask us how
many acres we have. And 49,
may we ask? how many acres of
land have they? Haven't we a
better right to four or five miles
around our patented ranches than
sheep men from other counties or
even from the same county?
Isn't that fair? We ask no more.
Let us unite and see what we
can do, but let us make violence
our last resort. Any fair minded
man will agree with us. Never
theless, we must make a trial.
No effort, no prosperity.
Very Respectfully,
L. V. MEDLEY.
