your part and l, to the fullest
extent of whatever capacity may
be in me, will do mine"
The Inauguration reception
and ball in the Palace hotel in
the evening was the most brill
liant social event that has taken
place iii the territory in years.
Not less than 1000 persons greet
ed New MeXico'S new Governor.
After the greetings were over a
large number of those present re-
paired to the brilliantly decorat-
ed ballroom where the pleasures
of the dance continued until
three O'clock in the morning.
Every feature of Governor
Hagerman'S inauguration was
successful in high degree, and
1t can not fail to be the earnest
wish of every loyal citizen of the
territory that the same may be
said of his administration, when
ever it may close.
