This is known as a progressive age

a progressive town for the reason that
it is constantly making improvements

A WORD TO THE BOOSTERS.
Albunuerdue Journal. Mar. III.


One of the very best chances that
just now presents itself for a little
profitable boosting for Albuquerque
is in the proposed automobile line
from the city up Tijeras canyon to
the Estancia plains, n thence
across to Roswell. A proposition has
been made to our people to give us
a daily automobile service. each way.
over the road from here to Roswell.
with carriages that will accommodate
eight OF nine passengers in addition
to mail and express matter. This
would mean a good deal better means
of communication than could be fur
nisned by a first class stage line, be-
cause ii would make so much better
time, and would be the next best
thing to a railroad. 1t would bring
together the citizens of the two ter
mini, and of all the country between,
and would practically insure to the
merchants OF Albuquerque all the
trade of n of the richest and most
rapidly growing sections of the
Southwest.
To secure this line it is necessary
for the people of the town to put up
the sum of eight thousand dollars,
and there is no other way hat we
know of in which five times that
amount could be invested that would
do the town as much permanent
good and bring us as much business.
Let the Boosters club take hold of
1t. The money car be raised in half
a day. and the line can be running
in less than a month. Boost 'eri

Fatal Farweii Fire.
From Texico Democrat.

from TeXlcO
One death, another person in a
critical condition, and the total des-
truction of a house, are the net re-
suits OF attempting to fill a gasoline
stove, while the stove was burning.
Last Sunday evening Miss Verna Ste
vens was getting supper for herself
and Hurley Dale, who has been re-
siding in Farwell for a short time.
n attempting to fill the oil tank of
the stove, the oil ig1ited and either
the tank or the oil car exploded. In
stantly the two people were wrapped
in flames and the house set on fire.
An Intellectual attempt was made
by Dale to get Miss Stevens from the
room, also to extinguish the flames
by use of bed quilts. Neighbors quick
ly gathered, and after two or three
attempts were made, the young wo-
Medical aid was then summoned and
everything o to alleviate her suf-
fering, and if possible say her life.
The young woman fingered until
three O'Clock a. m, when she passed
away.
Mr.. Dale is badly burned about the
hands, nead and face aad lower limbs
and is in critical condition, with the
chances of his recovery extremely
doubtful.
Mr.. Dale came here from Iowa
Park, where his people reside, and
where he is a member of the l. o.
O. F. lodge in good standing. Miss
Stevens has a mother and other rel
atives at Carthage, Mo.

NOT AT ALL
Albuquerque Journal.

From albuquerque JOuTIdl-
Any intelligent person, of any po-
litical party, who will take even a
superficial view of the condition of
things as at present existing in he
Republican party of New Mexico. will
be forced to conclude hat it is not
at all strange that h Bursum ship
has gone pom the rocks. The Bur
sum machine was in the first place
mitted it to run things il its own
way it has run them in a manne to
bring about it's ow1 destruction. Mr..
Bursum received his inspiration from
Col. Frost, and the Colonel was at
one time the government of New
Mexico. He received his political ed
ucation in Louisiana in reconstruction
times, and rs an expert il politics of
that sort he was without a superior,
in New Mexico or elsewhere, and as
long as his paper was the inspired
oracle of the Republican party of the
Territory his word was law. With
such backing Mr.. Bursum, or n
other man, could carry out h Bur
sum policy, or any other policy. But
the scepter mas departed from Judah,
and the law-giver from between his
feet.
That is what makes the daily raw
ings of the venerable has-been so
amusing to those who know what's
the matter. and that's what causes
those who are familiar with affairs
in New Mexico to regard the collapse
of the Bursum machine as a matter
of course. A better, cleaner, and more
American-like order of things mas
cen brought about in the politics of
New Mexico, and no better evidence
of that fact can be found than is pre-
scented in the passing of the Bursum
machine.

IA the Cit. OF Ration there are nine
teen saloons sand seventeen licensed
gambling tables. The former pay khe
city $500 a year q the latter 600
a year each. Equal sums are paid to
the territory for the county and the
district school funds.
In the towns of Roswell ald Artesia
gambling has been abolished by Dr.
dinance. and the experiment of exceed
ingly high liquor licenses, as much rs
$4,000 has been made with satisfac-
tory results.
That most of the games are unfair
requires no proof. In his message
Governor Hagerman treats of this fea
ture thus:
Some of the games as played here
afford tae player $50 per cent. less
chance of winning than similar gam
es afford in the large gambling estab-
lishments of Europe, which pay enor.
nous dividends to their stockholders.

the pr~oprietors.
There has been long n gradual
preparation in New Mexico for the i'm
pending prohibition of public gamb-
ling. About 1880 the female warb-
lers, or concert hall singers, were put
out of the business by territorial en-
actme1t.
Then came further Tightening of
the lines which did not become eff
fective without a struggle-the law
against packing guns. By the six
shooter law every man on arrival in
town OF city was compelled to shed
his r%evolvers and cartridges and leave
them in the custody of some resident
pay a fine If from $50 to $500 if he
refused or neglected to do so. Still
heavier fines were imposed for using
or brandishing a deadly weapon.
Now the territorial council is con-
sidering a bill providing that ANY
person within the territory of New
Mexico who deals, plays, carries on,
opens, or causes to be opened, or con-
ducts either as owner or employee,
whether for hire or not, any game of
faro, monte, roulette, ~lansque1et,
~rouge-et-noir, rondo, fantan, poker
v and a half, twenty one, chuck
aluck, slot machine, or any bankins
or percentage game, or any other
kind of game played with cards, dice,
or any device, for money, checks, cred
it, Or any other representative of val
ne, is guilty OF a misdemeanor, and
shall be punished by a fine of not
more than $4,000 or by Imprisonment
in the county Jail for not more thar
one year, or both"
AS in all reforms the impelling
force mas been a gradually crystal
izing public opinion. Both Arizona
and New Mexico have ambitions in
the direction of statehood. The de
feat of the joint proposition last fall
has increased the rivalry between
them.

fee and sandwiches, instead of the

national lecturer of the Woman's

LAND INVESTIGATIONS.

The Advertiser is in favor of all
the land Investigations possible, and
is in favor of the investigating of all
the governors of New Mexico for the
past eight or min years concerning
their doi1gs in lands
The Advertiser is well posted on
the doings of the Territorial officials
in connection with the land deals of
the past. as it has been interested
in the administration of the public
lands. n it oes not believe that
Governor Hagermaa is in any way
connected with n shady dransac-
ton in connection with the Terrific
rial lands.
We suggest that a few more i1ves-
LEGATIONS be held and that they go
back as far as the granting of a
blanket option to a gentleman named
Burke. and in that connection the
collection of his paper and the dis
tributiol of the proceeds might be
of great interest to the people.
