Returning Mobiles are Enthusiastic
About Entertainment.
Journal, June IS.
The Albuquerque Mobiles of Ballut
Abyad Temple of the Mystic Shrine
returned to Albuquerque last night
after a week in Roswell, where they
have been officiating at the initiation
of some sixty-seven candidates for
the justly famed trip across the heat
ed sands. The travellers returned tired
but happy, anxious to get to bed, but
willing to stay up just long enough
to tell of the royal reception and
entertainment rendered them in the
metropolis of the Pecos Valley.
1--WE have had the time of our
lives" said Potentate John Borro-
dale as he hailed a cab for home at
exactly quarter to 3 O'Clock. 1T would
be difficult to describe to You the
lengths to which the Pecos Valley
people and the citizens of Roswell
went to entertain us. We were taken
on long drives through the valley,
we were greeted by severaI thousand
people as we marched through the
streets on the customary parade. The
business houses were decorated in
honor of the Shrine and we even had
a newspaper printed all in rec in
honor of the Mobiles, although the
inference that the town was painted
red should not be drawn. 1t was real
ly a royal reception that the Roswell
people rendered US II the visit was
a cry enjoyable one throughout.
Our time was largely taken up
with the work incident to the initia-
ton, but we found time to AXE sew
eral trips through the valley and we
found all the stories of its remarkable
development entirely true. The Pecos
Valley is a garden spot, and it is
evident that its growth is just begin
ming. The entire program of the cere-
monial session was elaborate and ele-
CANT. The banquet was one of the
most enjoyable l have ever attended
and ] am sur every one present
feels the same way about it. The hall
was beautifully decorated and every
appointment vas perfect from the ele
CANT menu t. the electric designs
with which the walls were hung.

PROSPERITY IN THE
c VALLEY.


The statements of the three nation
al banks of Roswell were published
yesterday, showing total deposits of
over a million dollars. While the
First National is several years older
than either of the other and still
holds a strong lead in the mount of
deposits, the Citizens National and
the American National statements
indicate a prosperous condition.
OF course there is some rivalry be-
tween the banks, but all of them
have steadily increased their bust
ness and deposits. Three years ago
the First National was the only ma
tional bank in Roswell; but while
the Citizens National has since that
time more than doubled its deposits
over what it carried before it was
nationalized, and the American Ma
tional has entered the field. the
growth and prosperity of the commu-
nifty has been such that the First
National in spite of added competi-
ton has advanced with h others.
Since the change of management and
ownership a few months ago the
American National has made rapid
progress. With such men as w. P.
Lewis, ]. w. Rhea and George NJ.
Slaughter as directors, this bank has
the confidence of the business com
munity, and its growth is assured.
Naturally there are certain finan-
cial groupings of business men in

HAeERMAN SCORES AGAIN.

When Governor Hagerman went
into office, among the other relics of
the inefficiency of the old crowd, who
had run the government of New
Mexico for eight years, he found it
had leased about 100000 acres of
land which congress had granted to
New Mexico for the support of vari-
Gus Territorial Institutions. not only
without any authority of law, but alb
solutely in violation of the plain pro-
visions of the Act of Congress grant
ing the lands to the Territory.
About the time he went into office
the Territorial government had been
called down by the Secretary of the
Interior and the Attorney General of
were declared to be null and void. It
was therefore up to the new Cover
nor to try to clean up this mess, and
try to protect the interests of the
numerous people who had innocently
leased Territorial lands under the
~supposition that the Legislative AS
sembly, the Attorney General, Cover
nor Otero and the Land Board of
New Mexico knew what they were
about when they made the leases.
Governor Hagerman went to Wash
ington and explained the whole mat
ter to the Secretary of the Interior
and to other Federal officers, con
cealing nothing. He suggested the
terms of a bill to be passed by Con
gress to protect those who a hon
estly leased the lands. This was ap-
proved by Secretary Hitchcock, and
recommended to the House Commit
tee on Public Lands. before which
Governor Hagerman went to advo-
cate the passage of the bill. The
committee quickly approved it, and
it soon passed the House.
Now the welcome news comes from
Washington hat it passed the SEN
ate yesterday, and is up to the Presi-
dent for approval, which it will no
doubt receive. 1t will be a great re-
lief to many in this vicinity who have
leased lands and fenced and improv-
ed them at considerable cost.
Under the provisions of this bill
NJ only can the interests of those
who have in good faith leased Terri
toria1 lands be protected, but the
Territorial institutions will get a
large annual revenue from the leases
which would otherwise have been
lost.
This shows the value of a man in
the Gubernatorial chair who is known
to be as straight as a gun barrel, and
has no axe of mis- own to grind. The
authorities in Washington know this
as well as we do, and when he makes
a statement they believe what he
says, and try to do what he recon-
meuds

the former beliefs, about Jesus, the
