FOREST RESERVE
IN OTERO COUNTY
Causes Much Comment--Raiiroad
Wells on FL Paso & Northeastern
Drying UP.

Alamogordo, June 11.-Residents Of
Otero County generally and particular
ly those in the Sacramento Mountains
are worried over the report that a
forest reserve is to be established in
the vicinity. According to the prelim-
mary surveys, such reserve 1t is
said, would take in considerable of
the well known agricultural region OF
the Sacramento. Stock growers say
1t will mean bankruptcy to them.
Officials Of the railroad all deny the
statement that the wells along the Ell
Paso & Northeastern are gradually 60
ing dry but 1t is reported on good au-
thority that such Is the case, 1t is
the opinion of many that the recent
earthquake which wrecked San Fran.
cisco, has caused the sinking of water
in these wells. The railroad is now
compelled to run water trains

ITS TOO SUDDEN"
SAID Mr.. BRYAN
When Told of Boom
for Presidency
in States.
DEMOCRACY VS.. SOCIALISM
The Campaign c Contributions
Must Be Accepted Only
From Certain Classes.

Berlin, June l1.-"Thls Is too SUD.
den,' said William j. Bryan with a
laugh, when he was told today Of the
adoption by the recent state Demo
cratic conventions, of resolutions IA
Vorlng his nomination for the presi
dency In 1908.
This Is the first announcement of
the news to me-" Mr.. Bryan continued.
u have been off the main caravan
route for some time and have been
absorbed in what I have been seeing
and doing"
Mr.. Bryan has been moving so rap
idly since he left Vienna on Friday
that letters and kilograms did not
reach him until today. AS far as the
possibility Of the nomination is CON
cerned he had little to say, declaring
that it was too early TO speak of that
question, but taking up the subject of
the political requirements Of the day,
he said before he left home he had
tried to distinguish between Democ-
racy and Socialism. Democracy rec
ognizes competition as legitimate,
Socialism sees competition as an evil
to be eliminated by public ownership
and the operation of all means of pro-
duction and distribution.
Distinction Between Socialism and De.
nocracy.
While this distinction between So
cialism and Democracy should not be
overlooked" he continued, "the Dem
ocratic platform must be one of pro.
gress and reform, and not merely an
opposition to the Republican policies
or Socialistic ideas. In the fight for
absolute elimination of private monop.
olies and for the regulation of corpo
rations it Is necessary that our party
be free from any suspicion of an alli-
ance with the corporate interests that
have dominated American politics. To
this end campaign contributions must
be limited to those who have the pub
lie interests to advance"
Mr.. Bryan will leave for st. Peters
burg tomorrow; will visit Norway and
sweden, and arrive In England In July.
He will then visit France, Italy and
Switzerland. He expects to sail for
New York August 22d and arrive Aug
ust 29th.

Bank Officers.
Mr.. Reed Is hard worker and in
the business world at large no name
stands higher for integrity and pro
gressiveness. To a representative Of
the New Mexican he said that he has
faith in the city of Santa Fe faith
such as Is expressed In the founding
of the United States Bank and Trust
Company. He said that he Is fully
aware that the city has been dormant
for years, but he believes that an
awakening has come; that the splen

town are beginning to attract capital
and people, and that it will be mat
