OUTRAGEOUS TREATMENT
OF GOVERNOR HAGERMAN,

The political enemies of Governor
Hagerman have left no stone untura-
ed to secure his removal. and that
this character of complaint is a dis
tinct disappointment to the friends of
good government in New Mexico; for
it is a recognized fact that the people
of the territory have enjoyed the best
of government the past year than for
many years past, and perhaps the
best in its history.
The many accusations made by the
gang against Governor Hagerman
seem to have fallen on barren ground
and apparently had little weight with
the president, but the representations
made by Bull Andrews aid the Las
Cruces major, that the governor had
disrupted the republican party of
New Mexico, that harmony could new
er exist so long as he remained in the
executives chair, won the day, and
the president in a weak moment for
sock the ~preachings of his entire po-
litical career, turned the square
deal" picture to the wall, listened to
the voice of the INSCRIPTIONS politi-
cal gang of grafters, against the over
whelmi1g sentiment of the people,
and turned down a man whose every
act has been in line with good govern
ment. honestly and economically ad-
ministered. OF course it is charita-
BILE to say That the president was mis-
informed, that he acted on the evil
dence before him, and that he took
radical move to relieve the strain
ed political situation in the territory.
But has he succeeded? Did the reno
val, or calling for the resignation of
good official, which amounts to the
same thing, cause the people of New
Mexico. except the ga1gsters who had
heir official scalps dangling at Gov
Hagerman's belt, to feel any
higher regard for the occupant of the
House.-Capitan News.

lar. Surely it is not in calling the
natives "Mexicans" that we have Civ
en- offense. Germans, Irish, English,
French, Russians, and even Chinese,
do not object to having their national
ity designated. Are the Mexica1s
ashamed of their own country? We
see no reason why they should be.
We are bound to make a distinction,
I, too, between Spanish and Mexican
| citizens. We do not class the intelli-
gent Spanish population with the ig-
norant Mexican residents, many of
whom are said to be voted by the
grafters before they are naturaHzed.
From the best information at our dis
posal it appears that the Mexicans
object to other men being called
white.
In Texas there are two kinds of
Republicans, the Lilly Whites" and
the BLACK and Tans." Up North in
places people are distinguished as
tcolored" or plain" without regard
to party. The Indian is the original
American, and undoubtedly there are
lots of natives" OF this Territory
who a neither Spanish nor Next
can blood in their veins. We heard
former Mayor j. F. Hinkle, of Ros-
well Boosting the other day that his
children were born in New Mexico.
Then they are natives-but the man
who i~nsinuated hat there was any
Moxica7 blood in than would nave a
fight on his hands.
Now, what state pride a our chill
dren feel in a state where they must
ever be regarded as aliens. though
born here, while immigrants from
Mexico enjoy the honor of being the
only "~natives?" Shall American chill
dren be regarded as foreigners in
their own country. inc under their
own flag?

Governor fIagermAn Of New Mexico,
was 3 well known character thru-out
this territory and took part in many
exciting happenings during that UNI
settled period.
Dick Rogers, the noted outlaw, was
one Of Curry's friends before the for
mer's lawlessness got him into trou-
BILE with the government and later re-
suited in his death. Even after Rog-
ers began his life of outlawry Curry
stood by him as a friend and assisted
him in many ways although always
ca%utioning him against further wrong
doing.
Among the most notable of the af-
fairs in which Curry was interested
was the pursuit of Rogers by company
H, New Mexico national guards, in
the spring of 1885, after Rogers lad
shot John ~Hixenbaugh, sheriff of Col
fax county. Governor Ross organized
the company for the express purpose
ed Jim Masterson, captain. There
were sixty men in the company.
Drove Militia Out of State.
For days n weeks this company
secured Colfax county looking for
Rogers, but his numerous friends
among the cowboys kept him inform
ed of the militia's movements, and he
succeeded in keeping hidden. After
six weeks of this camping in the
prairies and mountains of New Mexi-
co, the company returned to Ration
and camped in the old Marcy stable
over night. They had no guard out.
and were captured before morning by |
the cowboys, who escorted them to
the top of Ration pass at the Colora-
do line AID warned them never to re-
turn to the territory. Curry was one
the party of cowboys.
Charles Wheeler, who was then
Governor Curry's employees, furnished
Rogers with fresh horses whenever
the outlaw was in eed Of a new
mount il order to escape the militia
pursuing him, and it fell to the lot of
Curry two or three times to take the
mount to wherever the bandit
was hidden.
Curry was a great believer in slaw
and order, but he believed in the
ethics of true friendship fully as
much, and many a time assisted his
to safety after they had got
into trouble of one kind or an
Brother Was Killed.
During an attempted Jail delivery
of a prisoner named Dood, who, the
cowboys asserted, had been unjustly
accused of a crime and railroaded to
prison for a long term, Dick Rogers,
Red River Tom and Jim Curry, a
brother of George Curry, were shot
and killed. George Curry the Joined
a and which set out to avenge the
deaths of the three, but the band was
rounded up by a troop of United
States cavalry sent from Fort Union,
forty miles away to quell the trou-
BILE. The members were afterwards
turbing the peace and inciting riot.
Shortly after his event Curry left
Ration and went to Lincoln county to
reside. There he was one OF the fore
most citizens. When the Spanish war
broke out he Joined the Rough Riders
there and served under Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt throughout the war.
When Roosevelt became president
Curry was remembered, and since
1900 has filed several government
positions.
He is known to all his neighbors in
New Mexico. and to all the members
Of the Rough Riders as a man abso-
Iutely without fear, with a great
se1se of justice and a true friend.

A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING.
Dr.. J. D. Sweaney Weds Miss
Glenn Calhoun.

On Wednesday evening at O'Clock
Nov. 20, there occurred at the PreSby-
terian church in this city beautiful
wedding when DR.. j. ID. Sweaney and
Miss Glenn Calhoun were united in
holy wedlock. The ceremony was
said by Rev. J. G. Carothers in very
felicitious and impressive manner.
The decorations consisted of palm
leaves, ferns and other ever green's
around the altar. Amidst these en-
during emblemS of continuity were
the soft lights of two dozen candles
which made the scene one worthy of
the happy occasion. The building
was crowded for sometime before the
appointed hour by those who had
gathered to express by their presence
the popularity of the bride.
The soft echoes Of the wedding
march, played on the organ by Mrs.
M. A. Townes of Minter Csty accom-
panied by Miss Esther BroadStreet on
the violin, announced the wedding
party. Slowly the uSherS, MeSSrs
Evans Townes and William Hughes,
DR.. B. S. Dudly and Crawford Gar
ner measured their footsteps down
separate aisle towards the altar.
They were followed by the bride and
Mrs. Evans TOwneS, matron Of honor,
and the groom and his brother, Mr..
j. Sweany. When the altar was
reached in few moments the solemn
words were uttered which linked
their destinieS together.
The bride is a sister Of Mrs. j. E.
Hughes of this city and is a prepos-
sesSing character. She has not only a
cultivated mind but an amiable dis
position and is charming in person.
The groom is most excellent gentle
man and enjoys large practice at
