The Record still holds one grew
ance against Billy Hearst, b Demo
cratic candidate for governor of New
York. Perhaps ven that Has not the
fault of Mr.. Hearst-but several
months ago his Chicago American
gave the Pecos Valley a black eye.
by printing in "Screamer" headlines
across the first page a statement that
fifty thousand acres of irrigated land
in the Pecos Valley had beer stolen
by a Chicago firm of immigration agts
and that half he people of the Valley
would lose their homes. There were
several things wrong abo6t the sensa-
tional story that was telegraphed from
Roswell by some person who a no
interest in either facts Oh conkequen-
ces. In the first place there is not
now nor was there then, fifty thou
sand acres of irrigated land in the
Valley-and of hat nearly all was
decided long before the Tallmadges
ever came to the country. Further,
we do not even TO this day know of
a single person who has lost his home
or stands in any danger of losing it
on account of the operations of the
Tallmadges. True some fentries have
been suspended on account of the
scare worked up through sensational
methods, but the entr3men rather

No honest settler who complies with
the land law will be Injured. n IL
ties to and already proved up can
not possibly be Affected in the least.
People in the East, off course do not
know these things, and the sensation
al stories about ALLEGED land fraud
in the Peco Valley have frightened
homeseekers so that It may be two or
three years before Jne Pecos Valley
regains the CONFIDENCE of the public
which it enjoyed tbefore Teddy's
Stmuck-rakers" wereI sent into the Ter
ritory in search Of adventures and
reputation. Theref was any
good eason whyI the investigation
should have gottSn into the newspa-
pers at all, except in the form of a
plain statement of facts. In Roswell
at least Mr.. Clarkson who had charge
of the matter at first constantly in
sisted tina he could not give out any
thing at all in regard to the names OF
the persons involved. but intimated
with the injunction that he was not
to be quoted) that nearly every immi
grafton agent and real estate dealer
in the Valley had been guilty OF vio-
lating the land laws. These hints
were magnified by some person I'M
known and sent all over the country.
and such papers as those of MIR.
Hearst put sixinch headlines on them
People read in a hurry as usual. and
the Pecos Valley was condemned by
thousands of people. 1t will require
lots of advertising to restore conf
dence. no matter what may be the
decision in the Tallmadge cases. Let
us hope That no technicalities will be
allowed to interfere and that these
cases may be speedily disposed of in
such a way as to clear the fair name
of the PecoS Valley.
