cause of Earthquakes.

A special from Albuquerque, New
Mexico, says: Refugees in large NUM-
bers are arriving in the city from
Socorro, where great damage has been
wrought by succession OF destruc-
tive earthquakes since July 2. In that
time not an hour aas passed without
one or more quakes. The center OF
disturbance is a zone 80 miles long
bv about 10 miles wide, running from
the Ladrone mountains southeasc
through Socorro, San Antonio and
San Marcial. This side of the belt
the shocks have been hardly felt
Each one is preceded by loud r'lmD-
ling like heavy thunder, which can
be heard approaching from the north
west before it reaches Socorro. People
are leaving Socorro on every traln'
and those who cannot leave on trans
are leaving by wagons. About two
thousand people are camping out ID
tents, and no one dares to go IN
doors. Practically every residence ana
business block in the town has been
irreparably damaged. There has been
much distress among the people who
are camping in the open, as heavy
rains have fallen in the last two
days, one being the heaviest for hfty
years. :
Most of the people are going to FL
Paso, although many are going to Al
buquerque and Santa Fe.
The shocks generally occur as snort,
sharp jerks, the ground seeming TO
slip violently. It is believed that the
adjustment of rock strata in the rug
ged Ladrones and Magdalena noun
tains is the cause Of the continued
shocks.
Provisions are growing scarce, and
real distress is feared among the ref
ugees.
The noise and the quakes are
trightful," said Mrs. J. J. Leeson, a
refugee from Socorro. 81 have expe-
rienced earthquakes in Los Angeles
and San Francisco, but never anything
as terrible as these prolonged jerk
ings of the earth at Soccoro. Wate:
placed in a bowl will show contin-
uous vibrations between the greater
shocks, showing that the earth is new
er still. Not a house in town is safe
to enter, and chimneys and walls
topple with each recurring tremor."

to the southwest of the city, have
failed to reveal any new hot springs !

ed Thursday. The entire property
damage at socorro will not exceed
$1,000, as only the old adobe houses
have suffered In surrounding towns
the property damage is also slight,
owing to the cheap character Of the
buildings affected and the absence Of
costly structures.

THE LIFE WORTH LIVING.

This is the life that I would lead:
A cottage on a grassy hill.
A few immortal books to read,
4 woodland way to roam at will,
&arden spot to turn with spade,
IL snelter of naples shade.
This is the life that suits me best;
The daily burgeon OF the East,
The daily blossom of the West,
The milky way my nightly feast,
The blue of skies my dearest boon
The solace of the afternoon.
This is the life that woos and wins:
A living far from crowd and can.,
A home secure from raucous dins,
A realm away from roar and rant,
The monarch of a modest hill,
To have and hold the world at will

reelection of that great Ameri-
can, our beloved Rough Rider
President, Theodore Roosevelt.
1t is gratifying to all of us, no
doubt, that the republican party
of New Mexico is stronger today
than it ever has been before; that
it is more harmonious, more unit
ed than for many years; that
while it has room for differences
of opinion on subjects that are
vital or that are trivial, that it
yet commands the loyalty and
the support of fully 10000 out
of $4,000 voters; it is a subject
for congratulation that the party
is keeping pace with the demands
of the times, with growth and
progress; that it is not narrow
in its principles or their applica-
tion; that it has been successful
during the past eight years in
administering the public affairs
of New Mexico and most of its
counties and towns; that it can
give a good account of its stew
ardship with which the people
have entrusted it.
When the labors of this con-
vention are done, know you can
go home to your people and tell
them that the very best that the
welfare of the territory demands
in material aud in a political
way has been done. | know
that the results of our delibera-
tions will have to pass the final
Judgment of the voter; that they
must be approved by the court of
the last resort, the people; that
they muse stand the test of news
paper discussion as we'll as re-
view by the many firesides of
this commonwealth; that they
will be analysed and criticised
out in the silence of the range;
in the clamor of the lumber, the
coal and the mining camps; in
the hum of the mills and factor
les, amidst the hustle of the
streets and the shouts in public
meeting places, but | am conf
dent that they will stand the
test and that the verdict will be
by at least 10000 majority,
well done!"
When Mr.. Bursum concluded,
the prolonged applause again
demonstrated how completely his
audience was in sympathy with
the man and with the sentiments
he expressed.

SHERIFF BACA'S CASE
against Sheriff Leandro Baca and Appoints
Misais Baca to Fill the Vacancy Created

Governor Hagerman issued an
order of removal last Saturday
against Sheriff Leandro Baca
and appointed Misais Baca of
this city to fill the vacancy, as a
consequence of the Governors in
vestigation of certain charges
against Sheriff Baca in this city
short time ago. In pursuance
of his appointment as sheriff.
Misais Baca furnished an official
bond which was submitted to
Hon. Frank w. Parker, Judge of
this judicial district, approved
by him and filed in the Office of
the county clerk. The general
sentiment seems to be that there
is no objection to Misais Baca as
sheriff, but there is a decided
difference of opinion on the ques-
tion of the power of the govern
or OF the territory to remove a
county officer from an office to
which he was elected by the
voters of the county. Sheriff
Leandro Baca will determine this
question in court. Misais Baca
presented himself in the sheriff's
office yesterday and demanded
possession and the present incum-
bent declined to comply with the
demand. Sheriff Leandro Baca
is, therefore, still in possession
OF the Office and says that he
