Padillas, in Bernalillo county, June II,
1888. His grandfather, Xaxer Chavez
was the first governor of the territory un-
der the republic. His father, Mariana
Chavez was highly educated prosperous
and upon hi. death left his family we'll
provided for. The young Chavez was
given splendid education, spending sew
eral years in st. Louis, later going to New
York city and Fishkill. He studied med
icine two years, which stood him we'll in
hand during his later life.
In 1862 was member of COL Pino's
company who went out 10 fight the Nav
ajos, and which resulted in the death of
many of these braves. In 1860 President
Lincoln commissioned him amajor of
volunteer company that was being raised
and which afte ward came to be known
as the note1 regiment of Kit Carson, as
he was the lieutenant colonel. Col.
Chavez es :orted the first governor Of the
territory of Arizona, to the capital, Gran
ate now Prescott. He was honorably dis
charged from the army in April, 1865. He
was a member Of the 3oth, 4oth, and 4Gst
congresses. Since 1875 he has been mem
Der of the Territorial council, and has just
about completed his second term as Sup.
erintenent of Public Instruction of
the Territory.
On Tuesday of last week Domingo Bal
les was arrested at his home near ProgreSo
on suspicion, for the murder of Col. Cha
vez. On the train he was very reticent,
and did little talking although he was not
unwilling to accompany the officers. Ar
irving in Santa Fe the train was stopped
at the stocltyards opposite the penitentiary
it being the intention to take their prisoner
there for safekeeping. However, whsr
the county authorities understood wha'
WAS being done they objected and he
was taken 10 the county Jail. He has been
in the sWeatbox since on different occas-
ions and has given out some things which
are considered vary important. 1t was
reported that he had confessed to having
been the murderer bat that he had been
PAID for the deed. The report however
has been contradcted here.
There is strong circumstancisl evidence
against the man and no stone will be left
unturned to unroet the whole affair.

ESTANCIA VALLEY
DEVELOPMENT
ASSOCIATION.
First Meeting Success. Getting Down to
Business.

On Tuesday evening about forty resi-
dents of the valley met at the schoolhouse
to perfect an organization, having for its
aim the improvement and development
of the Estanca valley. That the gather
ing was successful was very manifest by
the interest taken in the deliberat ons of
the evening. John w. Corbstt was
chosen permanent chairman. After a
short speech of thanks for the honor con-
ferred, he took the chair, when Mrs. J. P.
Dunlavy was chosen secretary for the ev.
enng. The committee on Constitution
and Bylaws made its report, which after
having been amended, was adopted. The
committee on permanent organization de-
clined to report, preferring that the officers
be chosen in open meeting. The vote for
vice president was tied between Mrs. Har-
ry Avcrill and A. H, Garnett The latter
Withdrew and Mrs. Averill was declared
vicepresdent A. H. Garnett was chosen
secretary and A H. Cox, treasurer.
Twenty.four members were secured at
this, the first meeting, No doubt the
unmber will be gradually added to until
all the settlers of the valley will have be-
come active members. After che business
of the evening was completed, tie COM
mttee on arrangements took charge.
Tickets were sold at fifty cents each and
the drawing for lunch boxes took place.
The way the gool things disappeared was
proof til It there are yet a number of good
cooks in the valley. Postmaster HswNins
WAS lucky enough to draw number I3,
which contained a solitary large beet pick
! le 1t was suggested. that this "dead beet
brought him a larger share of lnnch than
anyone else secured. Be that as it may all
had great sufficiency and there remained
anumber of basketsful after all were salts
fed.
The association will have printed for
distribution circular letter descriptive Of
the valley, A movement was started t.
test the strength of the present wells for
irrigation purposes more thoroughly thar
has been done heretofore and also to make
more thorough test for arteSian water.
The next regular meeting of the associa
ton will be the last Tuesday in NovembeI
which is the evening of the 27th.

Special to the News.

PnoS Wells, Nov, 2o.
Col J. Francisco Chavez was shot and
instantly kiled at Pinos Wells, Saturday,
November 26, while eating supper at the
house of Juan de Dios Saas, The assas-
sin fired through the window at an angle
as the colonel was seated near the wall
and not opposite the window. The bullet
went completely through the body Just
above the heart and buried itself in the
wall. The colonel arose partly assisted
by Donaciano Chavez, the mail carrier,
who was eating supper with him, walked
a few steps and then fell to the floor dead
An examination revealed tracks leading
away from the window to the road near
by. A guard was at once set to keep 9th
ers from crossing it and destroying it.
kilograms were at once sent to Cover

train came down Sunday with Page B.

The news OF foul murder OF Col.
j. Francisco Chavez came as a
thunderbolt from a clear sky to the
people of Eatancia last Sunday
morning. The colonel had passed
through Estsncia on Saturday COM
ing from the mountains whittier he
had accompanied two teachers to
take charge Of schools, one his sis
ter, the other his niece. He took
the noon train for Torrance, where
he went by stage to Pinos Wells.
The deed was the most inhuman
and pernicious that could have been
prepetrated.
While seated at the supper table
with his friend Juan d. Salas, the
shot was fired through window,
entering the side and penetrating
the body. The colonel arose, took
a few steps forward and fell a
corpse. A special messenger wa s
at once sent to Torrance from
where messages were sent to friends
and relatives of the deceased.
A hurried examination showed that
murderer had stood some twelve
feet from the window and awaiting
an opportune moment fired the ia
tai shot. Turning quickly he hast
ened away, and taking horse fled.
The trail was guarded until the
next day. when bloodhounds from
the territorial penite ntiary were
put on the trail which they followed
until obliterated by other trails.
Sheriffs Kinsell of Santa Fe coun-
ty, Baca of Valencia county and
deputy Chase of Lincoln county
are still In pursuit.
On Tuesday Page B. Otero,
game warden, passed through
Estancia with Domingo Bales, who
is accused of being an accompllce
in the affair at least, if not the real
murderer. He was arrested at his
home some distance from Pinos
Wells. 1t is thought that more
probably that the real murderer
having so much the start had eScap'
ed but that it was not the work OF
one man alone.
Several theories are exploited as
the motive for the murder, but it is
probably that it was combination
of affairs. 1t is widely known that
the Colonel has for some time beer
vigorously prosecuting several OF
the settlers in that part of the coun
try on charge of theft, and was
instrumental in sending two of then
to the pententiary last year
Others had sworn revenge. Dur
ing the recent campaign the Colon
ell stirred up wrath of a large mum
Der of Torrance people in the man
ner which he conducted the cam
paign and it is believed by a grea
many that taking this as an oppor
tune time the threat was carrie,
into effect. But whatever tn
motive, the deed was the vilest an
most atrocious character and the
assassin, if captured will meet hi
fate, no expense nor trouble will b
spared to run the assassin to eartl
if tits within the realms of posslbll'
ity. Large rewards are offered for hi
capture and the matter will not be dropped

RE ELECT HON. j. 6. TURNER

Hon Joe Sid Turner, of Eatonton,
Ga is candidate TO succeed himself
as State Prison Commissioner. His
record has been such as to entitle the
unqualified endorsement ofevery voter
in Sumter county. He has made a
splendid official and the people should
and Will return him to Office by huge
majority.
HIS opponent is a young man, un
known and untried. He has advanced
no arguments for his own election but
has contented himself with feeble at
facts on Judge Turner, which have ut
terly failed of their purpose.
Judge Turner's record speaks for 1t
self. His administration of the affairs
of the prisoners of the state has been
clean, honest and able. A recent
examination of the commissioner
books shows them to be in perfect
condition. The commission has made
money for the state by sale of the
cotton from the state farm every year
at the top of tho market. The convict
lease system is now in admirable
working order,
y Absolutely no argument against
Judge Turner's candidacy can be
brought forward, He has been endor-
sed by the people of his county and
it is a good sign when man is popu
lar at home. His friends have rallied
to his support everywhere and indi-
cations point to his election by an
overwhelming majority.
Sumter county should be in the Tur
rsr column on election day, Let US re-
turn this tried; true and trusted ser.

ton.

The SOUTH is GOING AHEAD

The South is work ng out her own
destiny, and grows in greatness lt
seems that a correspondent of the
Ros.on Transcript has found much to
admire In The courage, energy and per-
sistencv of the Southern people In es
tablishing cotton mills and other IN
dustrial enterprises. He is frank and
honest enough to say that "threefifths
of the capital and all the labor i nA'
tive. This explodes the assertions
fir eque ntly made by Northern news
papers that the cotton manufacturing
enterprises of the South have been
established with Northern capital
The same correspondent says: 'South-
ern men, starting with little money,
little experience and little knowledge
have acquired all three" This is
quite true, but it is safe to say that
what the people of the South have
done in the past twenty years to de-
velop the cotton manufacturing in
dustry is mere trifie to what they
will achieve in the future. In the
great resources of capi al and labor
the South is now more independent
than it has been at any time since the
civil war, and there is not the least
probability that it will look to the
North for assistance in the develop
ment Of its cotton manufacturing
industry. There is no better evidence
of this than the fact that since Janu
airy of the present year the improve
ments in the Southern cotton mills ii
the increase of the number of spindles
and new machinery have amounted IN
value to $4, 900, 900, but this it is saic
is mere bagatelle compared to other
improvements that have been project
ed. These include the installation
of improved machinery for the manu-.
facture of the higher grade of cotton
goods, in the output of which the
Northern mills have long held a
monopoly.
