the entire weight of mohair. 1000, 600
pounds, grown in the United States an
nually, nearly one-half is contributed
by New Mexico, and the most success
full goat raiser in New Mexico Is a wo-
man, Mrs. M. Armer of Hillsboro, to
whom really belongs the credit for
bringing the industry to general no.
tice among the stock growers.
Ten years ago Mrs. Armer's husband,
who was prospector, lost his life in
the mines near Hillsboro then a great
silver producing camp. The widow was
left without money and with several
small children to support Among her
few possessions were a few common
Mexican goats. To these she added a
few half-breed Angoras and one pure
blood Angora ram.
With this stock she went into the
Angora goat business. At the Kansas
City live stock show one of Mrs. Arm
er's entries, pure blood Angora ram,
took first prize in the Angora class,
and sold next day for $4,000.
Another Angora belonging to the
Taylors at Lake Valley, near Hills
boro, sold for almost as large a sum.
Mrs. Armer is today a very rich wo-
man. Every dollar of her money has
been made in raising Angora goats.

with only al occasional trial of minor
Importance to attract attention.
Never before in the history of the
county has q political campaign so
tied up affairs in every department as
at the present. This fact is probably
due to the many contestants in the
fight and the desire of the candi-
dates to work as hard as possible for
nomination and election.
Probably the most notable vacancy
will be that in the office of judge of
department four of the superior court.
Judge d. K. Trask, Democrat, who
for years past has been judge of the
superior court and is one of the best
known lawyers in the west, will leave
the bench at that time to retire to
hard business life.
1t has been virtually conceded that
had Judge Trask consented to enter
the race for the superior bench, an
election would have been his for the
asking, but Judge. Trask refused, and
former District Attorney James Rives
will occupy the bench in department
four.
Will Practice Law
1t is stated that Judge Trask will
again hang out a shingle as attorney
at law. Before winning the bench
Judge Trask was partner in the firm
of Trask & Brooks, but now he will
work in the firm of d. K. Trask

Indians
BY Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1s.-The annual
report Of Francis 70. Leupp, comrnis-
sioner of Indian affairs, was made pub
lie today. Mr.. Leupp says that no con-
gress passed so much legislation Oh
vital Importance to the Indians as the
last session of that body.
TO promote the training OF the Indian
in the culture of sugar beets and to
secure legislation looking to an equit-
ob,e division of tribal funds, thereby
making the Red men free and inde-
nendent citizen, are the two projects
for which the commissioner is working
hardest as future accomplishments.
10 carry out the beet sugar plan
legislation is needed authorizing the
extension of Indian land leases beyond
the five-year period.
Regarding the allotment of tribal
funds, the commissioners says that
while he would prefer notifications in
the Lacey bill which passed the house
and which is now before the senate he
would rather see this measure become
law than to have no action taken.
The expenditure for the Indians for
the past fiscal year aggregated $685.
0S9 The commissioner explains that
items of largest increase were the ones
fulfilling the treaty stipulations-S1,7 ,715,-
921--and the irrigation project, on which
S3,194,793 was spent.
Mr.. Leupp declares the Burke law of
last session will enable the Indian Of
flee to manage the affairs of the help
less class of Indians with undisputed
authority and to remove from the roll
of wards and dependents the large and
increasing number of Indians who no
longer need any supervision from a
bureau at Washington.

said. 1.-The Indian is of more than one
Sort ranging from good degrees of in

COLON, Nov. 1S.-President Roose-
Welt and his party sailed Saturday night
at 10 o'clock for Ponce, p. r., on board
the United States battleship Louisiana.
After riding on horsebac ck through the
muddy streets of Colon Saturday after
noon the president went to the resi-
dence of Mr.. Biers, general manager OF
the Panama railroad. for dinner.
AT $3.50 President Roosevelt reached
pier No. IL. where there was an en-
thusiastic gathering of a least 800 per-
sons, principally canal employees at
yCristoba1 and other points along the
line Here. the president assembled the
bandstand and made a thirty-minute
speech.
In giving his Impressions of the work
on the canal he said he was pleased
with what had already been done and
paid his respects to those who had ad-
versely criticised the work.
How about Poultney Bigelow' came
from among the audience.
Scores Critics
With much deliberation the president
remarked that in every large work
there was always some one to find
something that was not done as it
should have been, but the employees
should on no account pay attention to
such criticisms as the critics would sink

long after the exotics had been for

The president said he also was inn
pressed with the magnitude and great
ness of this work and he would like to
see one of his sons concerned therein.
He congratulated all the heads of de-
partments on the work being done, and
with especial warmth he congratulated
Captain George Shandon on his success
in maintaining order in the canal zone
and in lperfecting, the splendid police
force under his control
In conclusion, the president said he
would like to remain longer on the 18TH
mus, but it was necessary for him to
get back to his work in the United
States.

he can return with his followers every
night, for, unlike the sheep, the goat
will not thrive when driven day in and
day out from feeding ground to feeding
ground.s
The nights are chill, even In southern
New Mexico, and in winter especially
the Angora requires a shelter. With
this small amount of care, good water
and plenty of underbrush to feed on,
the Angora thrives in New Mexico, and
his number is multiplying amazingly.
One corporation owning ranches in
the mountains of Grant county is now
grazing between 5000 and 10000 An
goras This company is one of the
largest in the business. For the hous-
ing of the goats in winter a mile of
sheds have been built. The company
owns and controls several small noun
tain ranges which, to the inexperienced
eye, would not seem fit to offer support
for grasshopper, but the thousands of
Angoras thrive among the rocks.
Industry Growing
While the industry is growing amaz-
ingly and while the Angora requires
little attention during all but the breed
ing season, yet the industry is not one
to be entered into without some capital
and much experience.
The Grant county corporation re-
ferred to went into the 1>ngora business
without experience. The first season
it neglected to provide sheds. A great
snowstorm came and the result was
1000 dead Angoras, all of them ex-
pensive. The single lesson was,enough.

ital for the pure blood Angora is
worth real money and lots of it, as can
be seen by the fancy prices paid to Z
Mrs. Armer for her prize winners
But the profits are large and the
countless acres of mountain side in
New Mexico, where sleep
cannot find livelihood and where cat
tie will starve, are filing up with An
goras. 1t is predicted that at the pres
ent rate of increase the Angora indus
try will rival the sheep industry of
New Mexico, and that the mohair sent
to the market will equal in value that

fairs in Justice Pierce's court at the
first of the year. Constable Cline will
leave that court with the Inaugural
tion of 1907. During the past three
months Deputy Constable McCullough
has been in charge of all civil work
of Pierce's court and his long expert
ence in such affairs has fitted him for
the work, which 1t is announced he
will enter, that of manager of a col
lection agency.
To Sell Real Estate
In the other township court it is an
nounced that Justice Young may take
up real estate in preference to return
ing to the bar Constable de la Monte
will remain in charge of the constable's
office and his officers with him.
Cal Hartwell, who was selected to
defeat Ben Ward for the assessorship,
gave up a good position as county
officer to enter that fight. 1t is
rumored, however that Hartwell will
be well cared for by his powerful
friends throughout the state.

changes will be made in the county

Police Like Hammel
He accepted the position as chief of

There Is not an officer on the police
department today who would not risk
his life at a word from Hammel.
