The Question of Local Option.

From New Mexican.
The New Mexican publishes in an
other column communication from
]. ]. Hagerman, one of the wealthiest
and most prominent citizens in the
Territory. concerning the local op,
ton question. Mr.. Hagerman in his
letter presents a powerful and dras-
tic picture of the situation in Ros-
well. The chief reason why the New
Mexican does not believe that it is
Mexico, were such a one to be enact
ed, is that in it's opinion, every coun-
ty in the Territory would adopt The
open saloon policy, and there would
not be a proper restriction and con-
troll of the liquor traffic. especially
on Sundays. To be sure, the condi-
tion ofoaffairs is not as it should be
at present, except in very few of the
counties, but the conditions are i'm
proving, and the New Mexican be-
lieves that the district court judges.

the strict enforcement of the Sun

per and speedy collection of all liq-
uor licenses as well as those for the

Charlotte, n. c., Jan. 5.-A general
meeting of the hard yarn spinners
of the south was begun here today
to consider matters of vital interest
to the trade. The recent slump in
cotton brought about a chaotic condi-

them to act at once if they would
avert something that must be close
akin to a catastrophe. When the price
dropped many mills were loaded up
with raw material, bought at high
price. and the question now is how
to get rid of their products without
a serious loss.
