NEW MEXICO is BECOMING
MUCH MORE PROGRESSIVE

A Herald reporter learned yester
lay evening that there was delegate
from San Juan county, New Mexico
our neighbor on the south, in the city
and few hours of scouting around
during the evening and morning found
him getting his shoes shined, and he
didn't have much time to catch his
train.
Mr.. j. Il, McCarty, of Fruitland was
going out to Santa Fe to represent
his district, which is one of six, in a
meeting of the land and irrigation
board which convenes in day or so
AT the last territorial Legislature this
board was created with the purpose
of better facilitating the sale, settle,
ment and improvement of territorial
lands. The plan is cooperative with
the general government and has Its
sanction and aid. The policy or pur.
pose is to hasten the agricultural de.
velopment of the territory.
When this territorial board recon.
system of water way for irrigation the
government takes it up and investi.
gates. and finding it practical at once
provides for the work.
New Mexico is coming out of the
kinks.
Mr.. McCarty's district embraces the
water sned of the great San Juan riv.
er region in New Mexico. He is a
bright progressive fellow and withal
n Republican.
