HON. GEO. RICHARDSON, PREsi.
DENT OF TERRITORIAL COM.
MISSION BELIEVES LAS We
GAS WILL GET RESERVOIR.
Gentleman Discusses General condi.
tions and Speaks Enthusiastically
81 Progress Of Pecos Valley.

Hon, G. w. Richardson, Of Roswell,
New Mexico, president Of the terrific.
rial irrigation commission, expresses
the belief that one Of the first reser-
voirs established by the federal gov
eminent under the national reclama-
tion ACT viii be at Las Vegas. He
bases his opinion upon his " b
ough knowledge Of conditions here
and the highly gratifying reports made
TO him by Hydrostatic engineers Davis
and Read.
Mr.. Richardson and Attorney ]. l.
Leonard. OF Roswell, are here to rep,
resent the defendants In the case OF
Milheiser VS.. Long ct al, involving
water rights On the Hondo. MT. Leo.
nard, a member Of the Missouri bar
Is also one OF the defendants. Tho
case viii come up before Judge Mills
tomorrow. Attorney Chas. A. Spices is
also one Of the attorneys for the de-
PENDANTS.
Mr.. Richardson informs The Optic
that Engineer Read will dispatch =
surveying corps to Las Vegas within
thirty days. The gauges are now In
place In the Galllnas and Sapello and
thus far the readings have been very
satisfactory. The corps will make SO
thorough a survey that when the gov
eminent gives the authorization, ac-
tual construction work will begin at
once.
Mr.. Richardson gives a fine report Of
the Pecos valley OF today. During the
last two years. he says, the growth
has been rapid and substantial. The
irrigation interests OF the section are
OF vast Importance and are susceptt-
BILE of much greater development. One
government reservoir on the pecos Is
practically assured and another on the
Hondo is probable.
Mr.. Richardson has been a cool
friend to Las Vegas In her claim for q
reservoir. He asked Engineers Davis
and Read to investigate our conditions
and supplied them with letters to Hon
Frank Springer and others. He is en-.
thusiastic over the possibilities Of II
rigation In New Mexico and MS presi
dent OF the New Mexico commission
has ever labored intelligently and as
siduously for the advancement Of irri
cation enterprises, He may have the
somewhat rare satisfaction Of knowing
that his work is widely appreciated.

which will be located at circus
grounds.
Performances will be given at , and
p. M. Norris q Rowe's big shows are
nearly double the size of Hast season,
and many new features have been ad-
ded, including one of the most prom
inent troupes of acrobats in the coun-
try. Fargo, Duke and Duchess, the
dwarf elephants, have been taught
many new acts, which are wonderful,
and the educated seals are appearing
in new and novel feats of skill. Two
Siberian camels, ard pair of Llamas
with their numerous tricks, are per
formers of high class merit. These
combined with the best animals that
have been with the show in past
years make more than an interesting
entertainment. A funny clown band,
and large hippodrome track, upon
which all kinds of races and Olymp-
ian games and pastimes take place are
also new, special features. A grand
free street parade will be given at IL
o'clock on the morning Of the exhibit
tion at which time the entire COM

Social a Success.

The Halloween social, given at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. p. L. kast
ner, on Saturday evening was the
greatest success of any of these annual
socials yet given by the Ladies' Aid
of the Methodist church. The Kast-
ner residence was crowded with
guests, and all enjoyed every minute
of the evenings entertainment, in
fact so enjoyable was the evening
that it was we'll along towards Sunday
morning before the company took
their departure for their homes.
\ short program was rendered, con-
sisting of vocal solos by Mrs. McCash,
Mrs. Garrett and Miss Block, accom-
panied on the piano by Mrs. r. NJ.
Ling. Rev. McIntier read Robert
Burns Tam O'Shanter" also, and a
number of Halloween games were
played. The exterior of the building
was Illuminated with Chinese Ian
terms, while Halloween pumpkins
were in evidence everywhere. The
committee having this entertainment
in charge certainly deserve great
credit for its success. They were
Mrs. Ziba o. Brown, Mrs. W. o. Ay-
ers and Mrs. b. b. Dolly. Mr.. and
Mrs. P. L. Kastner also assisted in
welcoming the guests to their home
and in seeing that they wIre enter

of the social.

New York. Nov. 3-Election day in
this city dawned clear and bright and
the early morning polling was ex-
ceptionally heavy. not only in the
democratic stronGhOlds, but in the
uptown precincts where the fusionists
are very strong. Long before the
polls opened, at six o'clock, waiting
voters stood in line. The three can
didates for mayor all voted, Devery
and Low being among the first at the
polling place Mcclellan was later
in casting his vote. Voting was rapid
and peaceful. Arrests of alleged il
legal voters began early, but only in
small numbers. Reports from the
state this afternoon indicate heavy
vote. At Troy, Philip J. Riley was
wounded by special deputy sheriff.
during an attempt by the latter to
keep him from the prescribed dist
ance away from the polls.
Senator John c. Fitzgerald was ar
rested at the polling place of the first
election district, in the sixth assem-
bly, district, on complaint of the re-
publican watcher who alleged that

discharge of his duties. Fitzgerald
was paroled until tomorrow.
