POLITICAL SITUATION

| tory NOW. teople hem.
Albuquerque Advertiser.
Time is rapidly developing the
truth as to the fearful corruption of
the Otero administration, and each
day brings to the people some new
| evidence of cussedness upon the part
| of some membe of the old political
| gang. The latest is the sensational
disclosures in connection with the
| School of Mines at Socorro.
1t has been known for many years
that the Otero machine demanded of
all territorial educational institutions
and everything else in sight, cam
| paign contributions, but it has been
very hard to get anyone to tell about
it, as it was to lose your job if O.
tell.
The system was to levy SO much
against the institution selected for the
robbery, and that amount was divid-
ed up between the employees of the
institution, according to the impor-
lance of tne position held, and the
amount Of salary drawn. 1t is alleged
that in some cases the salaries were
increased so as to cover the campaign
contributions expected. but in all
cases a man holding a position mad
to make good" or he would be- let
out under some pretext.
OF course. the oteroites will loudly
deny all such charges. and o liar
at everyone concerned, put the fact
remains tina they got h money and
that at least two e prominent ed
ucators, have lost their positions be-
cause they failed to come to the front
with the contributions demanded of
them.
1t is now believed that Hon. l.
Bradford Prince, of Santa Fe, was
thrown out of the college at Las
Cruces because he was not a contri-
butor t the otero campaign funds.

COMPETITION GROWING KEEN
Among Counties for the Agricultural
Colleges.

While Sumter county has taken no
step as yet to secure one of the eleven
agricultural colleges soon to be located,
other counties are busy and already
spirited bids are being made for these
schools to be located in the several
congressional districts under the act
passed at the legislative session.
Although Gov. Terrell has not yet
advertised for bids to be made in &C.
cordance with the requirements of the
act for the location of these colleges,
he has already received offers from
thirty or forty counties, which are anx-
ious to have them.
These are just 145 counties IN the
state and it IS not unlikely that every
one of these will want the agricultural
colleges which will go to the district
in which it is located.
Under the terms of the act the coun-
ty which gels the college must gave
not only the land, not less than 20(
acres, but must also supply the neces.
sary buildings, and the county which
stands ready to put up the largest
amount of cash for buildings an6
furnishings is mos9 likely to bid.
If Sumter IS going to make bid for
the Third district college it is high
time something was done.

In congratulating Mr.. Mcdowell on
purchasing the Monroe Advertiser in
Sundays issue of the Times Recorder
1t was stated that he "spent a month
in Americus relative to entering the
newspaper business with MIR. w. A.
Brooks, but finding the field entirely
covered, he wisely decided not to en-
gage in losing proposition,
Purely by inadvertence the word
daily" was omitted from the original
copy, now on file in this office, wherein
the word "daily" appears Immediately
before the word "field."
The Times Recorder had no inten-
ton to do injustice to any body nor to
any enterprise. It was simply endeaY-
to pay Mr.. Mcdowell compliment
and stating, what is commonly under
stood to be fact, that Americus is not
sufficiently large to support two daily
papers.
The Times-Recorder never intended
any reference whatever to any weekly
paper in existence or that might be es-
tablished. 1t was certainly foreign to
the thought or purpose of the writer to
reflect upon or do injustice to Mr.. w.
A. Brooks or any enterprise in which
he might be engaged. -

LARGE FACTORY FOR AMERIcus
Reported Wagon Plant to Be Estab-
Iished Here

Americus is to have large wagon
factory at an early date, it is said. A
gentleman from a neighboring state
was in the city yesterday and said that
arrangements were beng made by a
company of manufacturers to establish
such an enterprise here at once, He
said, furthermore, that an eligible site
on the Central Railway, near the
city, had been selected for the
proposed plant. Americas, Sumter
county and this farming section
buys hundreds of wagons every
year, but since the Indians went away
and the whites came we have been
buying our wagons in the north and
west. There are thousand tralnloads
of oak and hickory at hand here, and
no reason in the world why such ye-
hicIes should not be made right at
home. Let the wagon factory come,
and any other enterprise of like kind.
There is room for hundred such.

GREAT INJURY TO THE corroI
Output In Sumter VIII Be Cut Short
BY insect,

Equal in destructiveness to the dread
ed boil weevil is the worm that is play
ing havoc in the cotton fields here. Al
ready the Times Recorder has told of
the ravages of this insect and the in
jury wrought in certain localities, but
recently complaint has become general
and the crop output here is going to
be greatly reduced Capt. John A,
Cobb exhibited yesterday a large stalk
taken from one of his cotton fields and,
apparently, unframed. 1t was filled
with grown boIls, seemingly sound,
and to the casual observer prom
ised a fine yield of cotton. But
when the bolls were cut open
every one was rotten inside, the boil
worm having entered there. And the
same complaint comes from many Sec
tions of Sumter and nearby counties,
where the boil worm has wrought ire
parable injury to the cotton crop.

Again the sable cotton picker rode

the cook problem IN town is thus rem

kitchen foundry is thus deserted and
the washtub abandoned as the char
coal queen of both domains hikes hence
to pick cotton. The farmers here
after labor invaded the haunts of the
idle men as well, and not a few va
grants of that class were carried away
yesterday for a week of honest labor in
the cotton field. Just now the fields
are white with cotton and labor is in
very great demand.
