Strong South and East.
On the eve Of election it appear
from information received by the New
Mexican from various sections of th
Territory that the registration Is th
largest ever had in the Territory an,
that the vote to be polled next Tues
day will be the heaviest ever record
ed Republican success on the dele
gate and legislative tickets is assul
ed and majority of the counties viii
be carried by the candidates of tn,
Republican party for county offices.
The immigration into eastern New
Mexico has been very heavy, but onl,
part of the new settlers, namely, those
who arrived in the Territory an(
took up their residence in it before
May 9th, will be legal voters and en-
titled to a vote. In the northern par
of the Territory that is from Santi
Fe north. it looks as if the Joint state
hood vote will be lighter than was hop
ed and that if it is carried it vii
be by a small majority. In the south
ern and eastern parts of the Territory
namely. in the counties of Sandoval
Bernalillo, Mckinley, Valencia, Socor
ro, Sierra, Luna Grant, Dona Ana
Otero, Lincoln Eddy, Chaves and
Roosevelt, it is believed the vote fol
statehood will be large.
