III USEFUL Wis fhi' hNh'
The attorney general % New Mex
ico. Mr. George W Prichard. holding
hls office by appointment Of Acting
Governor j. W. Reynolds. has an
uannre with charming %frnnkness 90
thp penfle ~ this territory THAT whlie
he n attorney general, individual
rights are NOT of sufficient importance
tn be even 50 much "A considered
mat under the laws Of Sew Mexico az
construed by prichard, there are mo
such things a. individual rights ana
II thcre were. aha he tPrichardf IL
above individual rights and above the
Law.
The attorney general has said ID
Captain Arthur Trclford. You're from
Kansas New Mexico laws were rot
made FOR vow or your protection. You
have nothing TO DO with them get
mni."
p%richard. of course. knows That
csptain Trelford r. a citizen Of Ncw
Mczico and q taxpayer tie knows
that Trelferd has as many rights un-
Ter the law IN this territory as any
other citizen ana Ia making his frank
declaration to Trelford ne make
To- he rest 81 the people ~ Sew Mex
leo. and Ia any man who ~ unfortun-
ate enough TO Incur fhc displeasuro
~ prlchard aud the men who direct
him.
Even were Trclford a citizen 81
kansas. Il does not seem to Dee a very
wise thing To say GO the rest Of the
nation that people from other states
have ma rights On New Mesico. We
are trying. most ~ ua, 90 encourage
immigration 20 Now Mexico. We are
doing Whit we can Go induce people
te come here To make their homes
The attorney generals declaration that
such people have no rights Viii not
prove particularly encouraging to
those who are CONSIDERING making this
TERRITORY their home For outside OF
New Mexico Mr.. prlchHrd ~ not
known and his bald statement AS the
first law officer of the Territory may
be believed abroad People nia\
