DEMOCRATIC CONDUCT
AT the Election at Roy Was Grimm
ally Disgraceful.

The following dispatch from
Roy to the Santa Fe New Mex
lean tends to show that the
democrats cry of Fraud" may
have been raised for no other
purpose than to divert attention
from their own peculiar election
methods:
The election here passed off
in a most disgraceful manner, the
democrats conducting their side
of the fight with lawless and
drunken men. There were riots
and shooting at the polls and the
six special officers were unable
to cope with the situation. Vot-
erS, especially those of the re-
publican side, did not dare go to
the polls to cast their ballots and
the democrats resorted to the
most shameful methods to carry
the precinct.
Nazario Flores, a notorious
bully and fighter was the princi-
pal leader and he was aided by
two others, Jose Archuleta and
Leandro Archuleta. The latter
is awaiting trial on an indict-
ment charging him with assault
ing an officer in the discharge of
his duties here several months
ago. The four officers on duty
election dag were assaulted with
pistols and rocks and these bull
lies otherwise intimidated the
voters.
After putting the special of
ficerS to rout, Leandro Archuleta
went across the street to the
Floersheim Mercantile Company's
store and pointing a revolver in
the face of Special Officer M.
Trobauh, who was unarmed,
threatened to kill him. The
clerks and customers in the store
were badly frightened and fled,
thinking that some one was
going to be killed. However,
young man by the name of Doug
lass Wright made Archuleta
put up his gun and leave the
store.
AS a result of the riots here
on election day, eight criminal
proceedings have been brought
against the guilty parties, the
complaints being made by the
special officers. The matter has
been brought to the attention OF
the ditrict attorney and Judge
for this district, and Governor
Hagermau, and it is reported
that the grand jury will be
asked to investigate"

DEMOCRATIC FRAUD"
The Las Vegas Optic Expresses a
Very Sensible View on the
Subject.

That democratic campaign
methods during the last campaign
were far from being above re-
proach is a fact we'll set forth in
the following paragraphs from
a recent editorial in the Las
Vegas Optic, published in Mr..
Larrazolo's home town. Says the
Optic:
The republican compaigu
was clean, open and honest. The
republican leaders did not send
out secret inilammatory literature
just before the election, basely
appealing to race prejudice,
making bitter personal assault
upon the character Of the
opposition for delegate, and
weaving a tissue of false state
ments about him. The democrats
sent out such statements in per-
sonal letters to thousands Of
voters. All through the cam
paign the democratic speakers
aud democratic leaders appealed
to prejudice and relied on the
efficacy of personal deuunciation
of the republican candidate. If
their candidate had been beaten
they would have let it go at that,
but now that he has been elected
they do not propose to accept
with meekuess another series of
vituperation and abuse.
Such charges circulated broad
cast in the territory on the very
eve of the election as that Mr..
Andrews was an enemy of the
Spanish speaking people, that he
had robbed the people by secur-
ing the conveyance of large
tracts of land to cattle companies
and other corporations, that he
had secured the creation of big
forest reserves. held up the anti
gambling bill, was immoral in
his private life, were unworthy
of the democrats of this territory.
IT these charges had been true
they would have made them
openly and without fear of con-
tradictiou. That they circulated
them secretly when it was too
late to answer them is sufficient
evidence of their entire falsitV." "

proprietress of the Park House,
after spending "a part of the
summer in Magdalena spent a
few days in Socorro last week on
her way to Kansas and Oklahoma,
where she will visit relatives
whom she has not seen for many
years. Miss Murphy made many
friends during her residence in
Socorro. which dates back some
five years ago when She came on

ARRESTED FOR MURDER
John Pate Accused of Killing Jim
mie the Duck" Three Years Ago

John Boswick, popularity
known as Jimmie the Duck. e"
was found dead in his bed three
years ago at his home in the
MogollOn mountains of the ex-
treme western part OF Socorro
county. The impression went
abroad that Boswick died Il
natural death, but that impress
sion has since gradually given
place to the conviction that he
was the victim of foul play, and
Sergeant Rob't w. Lewis of the
mounted police arrested John
Pate at Mogollon on charge of
having committed the murder.
Pate was suspected of the crime
for the reason that he had scoffed
at the idea of Boswick's having
died a natural death and said
that if the remains were examin-
ed it would be found that he had
been shot, and for the further
reason that he was reported to
have tried to induce Chas. Clark
to go with him to kill Boswick.
Pate has had possession of Bos-
wick's ranch since the death of
the latter, and this fact has not
tended to allay the suspicion
against him. He was to have
his preliminary hearing before
Justice of the Peace John Dwyer
at Mogollon last Saturday.

MAGDALENA CAMP IS BUSY
Much Development Work Being
Done and Large Ore Shipments
Made.


Correspondence from Magda-
lena to the Albuquerque Morn
ing Journal:
Magdalena is just closing one
of the busiest seasons in it's his
tory. The sheep interests have
been unusually active this year
and shipments of both wool and
lambs from this point have been
heavy. One Albuquerque COM
mission house has shipped out
55, 900 head of lambs while the
seasons record for wool ship
meuts is 5000 pounds. Beck
er, Blackwell & Co.. and the
Ranch Supply company. both
large concerns, are doing a big
business, the latter company
having recently built a large
warehouse and begun the extern
sion OF their store room. Mag
dalena is looking up and in
addition to the enormous
ranch business the mining
interests are picking up.
The Graphic is now employing
90 men and it is expected that
this force will be doubled during
the winter. This mine was sold
two years ago to eastern people
for 100000. 1t is said that it
has paid for itself already. +.
H. Gregg is the manager of the
property at present. The Kelly
group is also doing shipping and
100 men are now employed in
the camp. Several of the mines
which have been idle for some
time are to be opened during the
winter and great deal of devel-
opment is being done. A good
many claims in this district are
held by Albuquerque men.
The Mine Development COM
pany is continuing an extensive
system of development on the
Key group, containing 200 acres
of mineral ground (the largest
acreage in any group in the dis
trict.) The group extends for
$500 feet along the summit of
the Magdalena range, and west
from the summit to the east side
of the Graphic Group. The
company is driving tunnel,
working three S-hour shifts,
from the west side of the range
to connect with the south work.
ingS that were commenced on the
east side and driven on the ore
horizon to the southwest. The
face of the workings on the west
side are approximately 200 feet
from the face of the workings on
the east side. There is the
largest stope of cerussite exposed
in the workings on the east side
known to exist in the district at
the present time, and during the
past month a very important
body of a similar grade of ore
has been encountered on the west
side of the range.
Shipping will commence as
soon as the workings are connect
ed, and a thorough system of de-
veloping the ore bodies that has
not, on account of air, been pros

cations promises to equal or 'ex-

PREPARE TO RETURN THANKS
Governor Hagerman's Proclamation
Calls Attention to Blessings
Received.

Thursday, November %, is
Thanksgiving Day, made j. holy
by the Pilgrim fathers and
sacredly kept to the present gen.
Grafton by the people of the
United States. 1t is for most
people a day of rest, a. day of
feasting and of rejoicing. Govern
or Hagerman, in the following
proclamation, calls the attention
of the people to the occasion in
accordance with the proclamation
of President Roosevelt:
Territory of New Mexico, Ex-
ecutive Department.
The past year has been one of
unequaled prosperity in the
history of New Mexico and of
the nation of which the people
of this Territory are a part.
Spiritually, and materially great
strides have been made towards
that perfection which should be
the aim of individuals and of
nations. 1t has been a year of
bountiful harvests, of large in
crease in our herds of cattle and
sheep, of great progress in agri-
culture, in irrigation, in mining
and in the development of all
the natural resources so lavishly
furnished us by nature for the
support and happiness of our
people.
Throughout the nation the
spiritual life of the people, and
and the public conscience, have
been quickened; official wrong
doing has been exposed and
civic weakness uncovered. In all
parts of the country there is APP
parent a remarkable awakening
of public sentiment in suppression
of avarice, graft and greed, a
movement which must culminate
in the enactment of more whole
some laws, and ultimately in the
publication of the body polite.
From the early davs of our
Republic, when the pioneers from
across the sea first set foot on
the shores of New England the
American people have acknowled-
ged their dependence on the
allegiance to the God of Nations
and have expressed their trust in
and given thanks to him.
AS evidence of our gratitude to
God for the blessings which have
been showered upon us and in
obedience to time honored GUS
tom,
l, H. ]. Hagerman, governor
of the Territory of New Mexico,
hereby proclaim and set aside,
Thursday, November Goth, 1906,
as Il day of general thanksgiving
and prayer, to be observed by all
the people of the Territory.
Done at the Executive Office
this the 10th day of November,
A. ID. 1906.
Witness my hand and the great
seal of the Territory of New
Mexico.

Senator Dolliver of Iowa, before a Y.

sociologists who purpose to deliver the
race from all care, toll, burdens and COM
petition.
Those of my acquaintances," said the
Senator, who have reached this desired
haven are either deadheads or the wards
of government Institutions
He said the tendency of these teachings
was to produce drones and declared some
OF the recent struggles between labor and
capital had approached the ridiculous.
The socologists have missed the phi
losophy of human life" he continued.
The law of labor, struggle, service and
sacrifice is the mold in which rugged man
hood is made by achievement A contest
is demanded to make character. If you
give boy $4,000 to start life with he
does not start. He curls himself up on
the door mat and sleeps"
The questions of labor and capital ar
rayed against each other and of the dis
position of 100000 negroes, Mr.. Dolli
yer declared, would never be settled by
social scientists.

The Farmers Fruit.

1t has been frequently stated by those
who make a business of fruit growing
that the farmers orchard will soon
be a thing Of the past. They assert
that the labor for caring for it and the
constant warfare against fungi, insects
and blight will restrict fruit produc-
ton largely to, the specialist; that the
farmer can better devote his land and
work to farm crops and buy his fruit
We don't believe in this doctrine, and
this year will convince many that it is
false When farmers have to 90 with
out apples or pay present prices for
them they are very likely to figure or
producing their own. There is no
great mystery or expense about car
Ing for an orchard that puts 1t beyond
the ability Of any man who can run
farm. Prepare to care for the orch
ard. Though some expense and some
study may be necessary they viii also
be profitable. If the farm orchard is
about played out, set a new one. And
If small fruits are not grown prepare
to raise enough for home use. There
is no more sense in a farmer buying
his fruit than in buying his garden

Avoid Chean Fertilizers

1t Is hard for the man who has de-

high prices asked for commercial fer
tllizers, and, perhaps, it is quite natural
for him to buy the cheaper grades.
thinking to save something on the
transaction. This is a serious mistake
and one he must pay for by reduced
crop, so that in the end his cheap fer
tilizer has been more expensive than
if he had bought the highest-price arti-
Gle on the market If one is not
acquainted with the needs of his crop
or rather of his soil it is a safe plan
to buy the complete" fertilizers which
are planned on the basis of furnish
ing the average amount of each Of the
three essential plant foods required by
most crops.
If one understands that his soil re-

1t is quite true that the price of from
$40 to $50 ton seems more than the
stuff is worth, but remember that the
same argument holds good with the
cheaper fertilizer, and even more so
because the necessary bulk must be
made up Of filler" so-calIed which
is usually of some material having lit

him to demonstrate this idea at his

Climate and CrOps.

The climate has much to do with the
quality of the product Years ago It
was noticed that wheat from France,
when cultivated in Canada, had to be
acclimated before it gave satisfactory
results. Climate has also an important
influence on the proportion of gluten
and starch in wheat, the wheat grown
in a warm climate containing more
gluten, proportionately, which is equiv
alent to large amount of nitrogen.
Wheat contains the largest amount of
gluten in proportion when it is ripe.
In an experiment made with a variety
it was found that when wheat was cut
eighteen days before it was ripe 1t
contained only 6 per cent of gluten,
but when fully ripe it contained IL
per cent; but, as gluten Is not quite
as white as starch, it will follow that
when wheat is cut a little before 1T Is
dead ripe it will make whittier flour
than when it is cut at a later period,
but 1t VIII be less nutritious and less
in quantity. These conditions are,
however, subject to the variety Of
wheat and the climate and soil.
