The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1907-08-10

1t occurs to the Record that New
Mexico also has a comparatively small
population, and its politicians are do
ing all they can with what little graft
there is for them to divide. We also
understand that the special agents
were sent by President Roosevelt,
and that the new governor will carry
out the policy of the national execu-
tive to the letter. Naturally it will be
somewhat annoying to the more prom
inent politicians of the old regime
but the Federal government is not
exceeding it's powers under the law
by this interference"

Curry which arrived in the city this
evening" (The Colonel has probably
forgotten what he said the other day
about tax lodging cattle kings.)
"K. S. woodruff, ex-sheriff OF Chaves

the party delegation from Chaves
county, which arrived this evening to
attend the Curry Inauguration tomor-
row.
81 Smith Lea, of Roswell, treasu-

The new governor and
Mr.. Lea were peace officers together

And now note this item from the
"old reliable" New Mexican:
Nathan Jaffa, cashier of tie Citi-
zens' National Bank at Roswell and
president of the board of regents of
the New Mexico Military Institute h
the f1ourishing Pecos Valley town.
was one Of those who accompanied
Governor George Curry via the auto
line to Santa Fe and reached here
this afternoon with the party. Mr..
Jaffa is one of the foremost citizens
Of Southeastern New Mexico, and
pioneer of that section. (Disregarding
the fact that Mr.. Jaffa did not go to
Santa Fe, the balance of the item is
all right, but it seems to US that the
New Mexican should have also made
a note of the fact that Mr.. Jaffa is
the man who has been selected to fill
The office of Territorial Secretary and
Governor.)

The Comet Was in Plain Sight.

The Comet Was in Plain Sight.
Numerous people got up between
three and four o'clock this morning
to see the comet that was announced
by some unknown person yesterday.
Those who looked in the right direc-
tion beneld the celestial wanderer in
plain sight. Among the latter was a
Record representative who was called
over the phone at $3.50 by friend
who is suspected of staying up all
night for the purpose. The sight was
worth getting up to see. The comet
appears directly east, about thirty or
forty degrees above the horizon at
that hour. 1t appears like star of
about the third manitude, with a tail
of nebulous light of the usual cut and
fashion for fly-time and projecting
some ten degrees over the dashboard.
1t is stated that the comet will be
visible again for the last time tomor-
row morning at the same hour. A
shower of meteorites is predicted by
Washington scientists for tonight, al
so, and the show will be a two-ri1g
exhibition with fireworks for those
who get up to see it

AN ELOQUENT PLEA FOR
THE OLD TIMERS


Among the hundreds of prominent
citizens from every section of New
Mexico who are here to give Governor
Curry a loyal and hearty welcome
were many of the pioneers who came
to the territory years before Governor
Curry arrived aad who therefore knew
him from the date of his arrival in
New Mexico and have watched his
career ever since. This outpouring of
many old friends ought to be and the
New Mexican believes is very CRATE
full and complimentary to the new ex-
acutiVe. These old timers have done
yoemal work for the upbuilding and
advance of this commonwealth and
this work was hard, arduous and dan
gerous. Their valuable services to the
territory should not be forgotten.-
Santa Fe New Mexican.
The Colonel, of course was too mod
est to add that he is one of the oldest
timers of them all.

CURRY TALKS AFTER


HIS INAUGURATION
According to the Santa Fe New
Mexican, Governor Curry made the
following talk just after he had been
inaugurated on Thursday:
1.-The only instructions 1 received
from President Roosevelt when call
ed upon him at his summer home in
Oyster Bay were to give the people
of New Mexico an honest, economical
business administration" He contin-
ued: I'm view of the conditions here
and of which as yet 1 am not thor
oughly familiar, l believe it would be
better to let the people judge me by
my actions rather than by words.
Il hope that the people of New
Mexico, and especially the press, will
lay aside their personal grievances,
if they may have any, so that we may
all work together for the advancement
of the Territory In my opinion poll
tical strife and dissatisfaction might
retard statehood, which we all so mucn
desire''
What are your views on the state
hood question:" Governor Curry was
asked.
FaNors Single but would Accept Joint
Statehood.
81 am in favor of single statehood
for New Mexico if it can be secured,
but would accept joint statehood with
Arizona in preference to none at all.
had too many other matters to talk
about relative to the conduct of the
territorial administration here during
my short visit with the President to
discuss statehood, but I intend to
make a trip to Washington at the re-
convening of Congress to try to get
bill through. Few senators and con-
gressmen are now in the national
Capital
do you contemplate making any
changes in the Territorial officials?"
mo, not for the present at least.
There may be few changes later on.
l am going very slow in this matter.
1 think that is the safest way to do.
''Of course, 1 feel that if there are
any officials who are not in sympathy
with the administration of President
Roosevelt or of myself, they should
tender their designations.
I'm filling vacancies in the impor-
tant Territorial offices whenever they
occur, l shall make my appointments
as far as possible from members of
the Republican party who are support
ers of the policies of President Roose-
velt
81 intend to keep the boards of con-
troll of the different Territorial Insti-
tutions entirely non-partisan, having
in view the best interests of these in
stitutions. AS l said before in TAX
ing my appointments I shall endeavor
to appoint good officials
Governor Curry stated when asked |
about the present Investigations of al |
legged land frauds and other alleged |
Illegal transactions now being pur-
sued by federal officials, that he
would render all possible assistance
TO any legitimate Investigations where
the government might have been de- |
or the statutes evaded
He said that he had not yet held a |

tant attorneys general of the United |
States who are here but expected to |
go over the situation with them Fri |

NEW MEXICAN WILL SUP
PORT GOVERNOR eli

In a double column editorial, the
Santa Fe New Mexican gives reasons
why it's support should be considered
indispensable, and then declares pos
itively that Governor Curry will have
its hearty support in carrying out the
policies of President Roosevelt, spe-
cial agents and all. 1t may be unnec-
essary after all for the Daily Record
to act as official arbitrator.

From the Chicago News
Don't be afraid of a little fun at home.
Don't shut your house lest the sun should
fade your carpets; and your hearts, lest
a hearty laugh shake down some of the
nusty old cobwebs there. If you want to
ruin your sons, let them think that all
nrth and social enjoyment must be left
on the threshold without when they come
home at night.
Young people must have fun and re-
Taxation somewhere. If they do not find
IL at their own hearthStones II VIII be

Don't repress the buoyant spirits of
your children; half an hours merrl lment
around the lamp and freside of home
blot>s out the remembrance Of many a
care and annoyance during the day. and
the best safeguard they can take with
them into the world is the influence Of a
bright little domestic sanctum.
