Mr., BaCa was born in Santa Fc
county in 1858 and has always
been prominent in New Mexico
politics, and no man who ever sat
in the councils Of the Territorial
Assembly has a cleaner record
than the Hon. Manuel c. De Baca.
He was found on the right side of
the Martin Flood bill in tho last
Territorial Assembly, and of every
other measure that would save the
expenditure of the peoples money.
He is a power to reckon with in
territorial politics and always
stands for right and justice for all
the people. He fought the bloody
Comanches and helped to blaze
the way for the American to settle
the fertile soils of New Mexico,
and today stands for the letter
mcnt of his race and the advance
mcnt of his native country.
Asked if he would be a candi-
date for reelection, he said: Il
