TRELFORD ACCUSED OF
CRUELTY TO PRISONERS

Arthur Trelford, appointed by Gov
ernor Hagerman to be superintendent
of the Territorial penitentiary, was
on Thursday given a hearing before
Attorney General Prichard, on the
charge of cruelty to prisoners under
his charge. He was represented by
attorneys. Formal charges had been
filed and witnesses were heard in sub
sanitation of the charges. Trelford
and his friends assert that the charges
are of political nature. and original
ed because he was appointed by Gov
ernor Hagerman. Jap Clark was one
of the witnesses against Trelford. 1t
is apparent that the old gang, placed
once more in power in the Territory,
temporarily at least, by the action of
President Roosevelt, are determined
to get Trelford's scalp.

amount or more will fall within the
next twenty-four hours. 1t rained yes

from the west indicate that not mach
rain has fallen in that section, altho'
today it appeared from Roswell that
it was Eaining heavily to the west
Today a rumor was circulated at
Portales that Roswell had been wash
ed away, and the telegraph Office
there inquired as TO the truth of the
report from the local Office. The rain
was a good one. but we can stand

SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES
IN ALFALFA GROWING
From FL Paso Herald.

From Ell Paso Herald.
According to a Tucson newspaper,
ranchmen in the Santa Cruz valley
are receiving SIS a ton for their al
falfa right now at the height of the
growing season, and it is predicted
that the price will rise to $40 or even
s25 later in the year
/ There is a market in this neighbor-
hood for every pound of alfalfa that
can be raised in the Rio Grande val
ley. 1t is folly for Land owners in this
valley to wait for the completion of
the Engle dam five or six years hence
before placing their lands under cufti-
vation. Every hand owner in this val
ley should put in a pumping plant and
pumping plaat would pay for itself
in a few months, and then by the time
the Engle dam were ready to release
water the lands having been under
cultivation for a term of years would
be worth four times as much as raw
land.
There is another lesson in this lit
tie item from Arizona. The Pecos
valley is especially adapted to success
full alfalfa growing. Now the market
is restricted for the only direction TO
ship with any economy is east, and
there the ruling prices are very much
lower. The Pecos valley should be en-
aibled to dispose of all of it's surplus
alfalfa in the west. and the way to
bring about this condition is to build
a railroad direct from the Pecos Val
ley.
1t is safe TO say that the region be
tween the Pecos Valley and Phoenix
embracing a rich mining, timber and
cattle country. will not in generations
produce surplus of forage and food
products; but we can achieve a more
economic distribution and reduce the
imports from outside, by improving
the transportation facilities.-El Pa
so Herald.

The Williston project is the most

located a short distance from the
shore Nearly 10000 acres of land in
this vicinity will be irri gated by water
from this system and an area of simi-
lar extent in the Nesson valley will al
so be benefited by pumping systems.
The soil in the vicinity is rich loan
and the reclamation service officials
believe will become the most produc-
tive in the Northwest as a result of
the irrigation system.
