PREMONITION THAT SOME
THING is GOING TO HAPPEN

Albuquerque Journal Correspondence.
Santa Fe, N NJ, June 4.-There
seems to be a vague feeling among
the members of the Bursum-Andrews
gang that something is about to hap
pen in New Mexico as a result of the
stirring up of the Territorial timber
land transaction which has been caus-
ed directly by the removal of former
Governor II. ]. Hagerman as the re-
suit of the maneuvering of the Bur
sum-Andrews-Llewel combination.
The land transactions. chiefly in tim
ber lands, covering almost the entire
period of the administration of form
er Governor Otero. although they had
been much discussed, had not attract
ed a great deal of public interest Of
late. up to the time that the Pennsyl-
vania Development Company transac-
tion and Hagerman's part in deliver
ing the deeds to the lands in Ques-
fion was used as a basis for Hager-
mans removal
Since that time as a natural result
the whole question of the disposition
made of the Territorial timber lands
has been re-opened, with the result
that a thorough investigation of the
whole course Of these transactions
seems inevitable. all coming directly
as the result of the fight made by the
gang ON Hagerman- Naturally Hager-
mans casual transaction Is but an in
production to the history of the Terri
toryss land business, and investiga-
ton Is going to introduce the names
and careers OF several other Terrific
rial and Federal officers. whose part
in past land transactions appears to
have been a little more prominent

FROM ROSWELL, N. M.
j. S. Kirby Writes of the Climate and
Other Things including Politics

OlhCT TOIAISS-
Roswell, n. NJ, April %, 1907.
To The Examiner, Independence, Mo:
AS once AID while l see an item
| from my old time friend c. T. Dealy,
who for years lived near Cockrell, and
is now living in some part of the state
of Oklahoma, l feel that it is not in
truding for me who lived il jackson
county as boy for 33 years, to write
you about this great country. The fer
tility of its soil is just begun to be
found out, and no one can predict the
future for the next ten years. All up
and down the valley for a distance of
60 miles, artesian wells are being
brought il every day, with a flow of
from one to eight feet over an eight
inch casing. and the irrigation system
is now being studied so, that you ce'l
irrigate at least double the amount of
ground they did three years ago. This
country last year raised 10000 tons
of alfalfa, which makes the finest feed
in the world. l cannot speak as to the
apple crop here, as we have recently
had snow storm, as you had north,
and in old Missouri and 1 have not
heard what effect it had on the fruit
crop. And while l am speaking of the
outlook for this country as a farming
district. I want to say it is just in its
infancy, and greater things will be
told of it in the very near future.
I see you touched on the cattlemen's s
convention il the last issue of the
Examiner" and as you did so. want
to tell you something of it. We had
the greatest time ever held in the his
tory of the gatherings of that body
There were more than 5000 people
mere. whose homes were not even tri-
butary to Roswell, and while the peo-
pie of the East think the far west such
a wild place, they were here three
days and there was not white man
arrested during this length of time.
only two Mexicans and two negroes
put in the holdover, no special drunks,
and not an accident of any descrip-
tnon and the only holdup during the
convention was the Megaphone Min
strels from Kansas City. l want to
say right here. that / do not know
how your spit ordinance is working
back there, but it certainly works
here, during the whole convention
there was not a man seen to spit on

Hinten who is the most recent con-
vert to the land of sunshine, and VINO

and retail dry goods store here. and is
fast gaining fame as window deco
rator. to vouch for what l have said.
The windows he has decorated for the
cattlemen's convention, and for Easter
here would be a credit to most any
eastern city. Fayette Jones who for
years lived in Independence, and Hen
ry Etzenhouser, who was for many
years a resident of Atherton, were
here during the convention, and spoke
loud praises for the wonderful Pecos
Valley

BRYAN OPPOSED

TO THIRD TERM
A Baltimore dispatch a few days
ago quotes William ]. Bryan in an
interview as follows:
When il congress l endeavored to
secure an amendment to the constitu-
ton making the President ineligible
for a second term, and in both my
campaigns | also announced that if
was elected I would not be a candi-
date for a second term. / would hard
ly look favorably, therefore, upon a
third term.
Il assume that the President will
adhere to the opinion which he has
expressed upon the subject and will
not be a candidate again. 1t would be
administration if, coming in by an
enormous majority, he had so reduced
the popularity of his party as to make
it impossible for any other Republi-
can to be elected.
IF his reforms are of a substantial
character there ought to be some otn-
er Republican sufficiently identified
with him to represent them as a can
didate. 1t would be strange if the
President was strong enough to vio-
late the anti-third term precedent set
by Washington. Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe, and Jackson, and yet was not
able to develop a worthy Republican
successor"
Mr.. Bryan might have added tnat
even General Grant failed to get a
nomination for a third term, though
a strong effort was made to nominate
him
