Bradley placed the carpetbag on the
corner of the mat and pulled off the
shabby overcoat. The Jacket and
trousers beneath We're also shabby. but
it was at his shoes that Miss Prissy
glanced, and, oddly enough. their con-
dition served to break the formality.

The arrival was a short, thickset man
with n sunburned face, sharp eyes,
hair that was a reddish brown sprin-
killed. with gray and close clipped
mustache Of the same color. He wore a
blue overcoat over blue suit and held
a cigar firmly in one corner of his
mouth. His movements were quick

Mr.. Small. who was buttoning his

is the greatest in their history for
any similar period and shows cor
clusively that immigrants and set
tiers are arriving in the Sunshine
Territory in great numbers and are
becoming permanent residents. A com
monwealth hat can snow such an in
fiux of farmers and homestead set
tiers in less than five months is GER
tainly in the public eye in the right
direction and is now gaining at the
rate of $4,000 Inhabitants per year.
1t is no exaggeration whatever to say
that at present the population is
100000 and is steadily increasing.
During the year 1906 many homestead
and desert land entries were made
by immigrants and homeseekers.
The year 1906 will beat the record.
In the Santa Fe land district the
records thus far show h following
business: 826 homestead entries; SO
final homestead entries; 80 desert
a entries. The Las Cruces land
district shows the following business:
1872 homestead entries; II desert
land entries. The Clayton district
stands at the head of the list show
ing the following business: 1,647
homestead entries, 1862 final home
stead entries; 81 desert land entries,
Is fnal desert land entries. The Ros-
we'll land district makes a good show
ing, the entries this year up to May
20, being: 1,435 homestead entries.
81 final homestead entries, 1874 desert
land entries, IL 1na desert land
entries and 40 combinations.
The number of homestead entries
actually made in the our districts in
dictates clearly, and unequivoeally
that in the farming sections alone
the territory has gained between 49,
900 and 10000 inhabitants, counting
four persons to eacn homestead entry
man, a very conservative estimate.
In the cities towns. villages and
mining camps it can safely be as
sumed that the increase has been
fully as much, if not greater.

charged by Oteroites that Hagerman
hates a Mexican"
the Otero gang organs. headed by
the New Mexican, are constantly pub
fishing editorials making much of a
local incident over in Eddy county,
resulting in the Mexicans of a GER
tain locality being barred from demo-
cratic primaries. This does not strike
the uninitiated as being out of the
ordinary in politics, but it is differ
ent when il is understood that the
Otero strikers are busy calling the
attention of the native voters to the
articles in the gang news
translated for that purpose, and then
~impressing them with the idea thai
Hagerman is from that section, and
in some way in sympathy with the
movement.
So far as the Advertiser has been
able to observe, Governor Hagerman
makes no distinction between the two
races, simply selecting his appointees
from the applicants available accord
ing to his ideas of their qualifications
for some particular line.
The Advertiser will promptly in
form the public of any mistakes made
by Hagerman, al a republican gov
ernor, but in the interest of good
government it is equally important
that he be given credit for all the
good he does.
While ever ready to take advantage
of the mistakes of the enemy for the
good of it's own political party, the
Advertiser will endeavor to be per
fectly fair with the people, and also
inform them of the efforts made in
their behalf.
NV Mexico needs honest govern
ment much more than it needs polit-
ical parties, and the Advertiser will
proceed accordingly. The nation
needs tru democracy more than any
thing else, and must have it, but New
Mexico is not yet a part of the ma
ton. and needs just honest govern
ment.

JUSTICE TO HAeERMAN.
From Albuquerque Advertiser.


AS a political proposition, it mat
tiers not how hard h members of
tine Il Otero gang make it for Hag-
erman, but as between men, and for
the good citizenship of the territory,
Governor Hagerman deserves the sup
port of every man. regardless of pol
itics. This support should be extend
ed to him as long as he tries to give
the territory an honest and fair ad-
ministration.
Last week he took action in he
charges brought from Quay county,
involving the honesty n official in
tegrity of two of the commissioners.
He naerd the charges, and made an
order removing n democrat and
one republican from Office. He then
appointed to the vacancies one dem
ocrat and one republican, holding that
the people had made their selections,
and that he should attempt to meet
their wishes as far as possible. Now
it happens that one of the men re-
moved is what is called a Mexican,
hat is, of Spanish descent, and the
governor appointed a man of h same
blood to fill the vacancy created.
Certainly, this doeA not look like race
prejudice upon the part of Governor
Hagerman, and attention is called to
the act simply because it is being
