GOVERNOR CURRY WINS
ROOSEVELT TO CAUSE.

Cairo, H., Oct. 3.-Governor Curry,
on the steamer Mississippi with Pres
ident Roosevelt, in an interview here
today said:
eo"The President has authorized me
to say that he is for statehood for
New Mexico alone, and that he will
do all that he can to secure the pas
sage of a single statehood bill at the
next session of congress"
The governor added that the bill
will be introduced and crowded to
the front at the coming session of
congress. Mr.. Curry declares his in
te1view with the President was ex-
ceedingly satisfactory, and he is CON
idelt that New Mexico will shortly
be admitted to the Union.
The past few days have been al
most as strenuous ones forsethe New
Mexico governor as for the President.
Governor Curry arrived in St. Louis
minus his baggage, and was forced
to patronize a local clothing estab
lishment in some haste in order to
attend a banquet at which he was
guest on the evening of mis- arrival.
He will leave the Presidents party
tomorrow or next day in order to has
ten back to important engagements
in New Mexico.

WHA1 Is A HOME7

(Joel Chandler Harris, in Uncle Re-
mus Magazine)
What constitutes a home? Folk or
furniture? A house, or those who in
habit it? This is a mystery that the
wayward pen cannot solve with a
flourish. home is expansive, indeed,
for it includes all who are born in its
charmed circle, and many more be-
sides; but is it a thing that grows,
that is subject to evolution? Make the
answer to suit yourself; let it be
whimsical or serious; but you may
be sure that the spirit of nome is not
to be found in warehouses. nor in the
auction shops, nor in the market
places of the world. 1t is an ethereal
essence, with a fluency which fills ev-
cry corner from cellar to garnet, and
gives out it's perfume even to the
stranger. that enters the door. And il
you nave ever had whiff of this sub
tie perfume, count yourself fortunate
among the children of men.

Not What They Wanted.

From Harper's Weekly
A small town in the far West was
looking for some one to teach its
school, and applicants for the post
We're few as the district was remote,
and its population somewhat too new
to furnish many possessed of the ne
cessary education.
One morning, however, candidate
He was a tall, rather gaunt
youth, whose accent Enthusiastically
proclaimed him as haili1g from New
England. The trustee in whose hands
the appointment lay knew pretty well
what the town wanted, and he asked
the stranger to give his qualifications
as quickly as possible.
In faultless English the youth pro
ceeded to set forth his pedigree, nam
ing his father and grandfather, and
showing a marked tendency to dilate
upon an ancestry which, if proven,
should easily have gained his admis-
sion to the Sons of the Colonial Wars.
The Westerner mad looked puzzled
and after a few minutes he interrupted
the story.
''Now, look-a-here, young man." he
exclaimed, there's been some mis-
take What we want is a man to
teach school, and not one for breeding
purposes

CLUB COMMITTEE HAS VERY
SATISFACTORY MEETING
WITH MYERS.
NOTHING TO PUBLISH
When the Traffic Manager Has Con-
ferred With Connecting Lines Some
New Rates on Commodities of Var
ous Kinds Will Be Announced.

The railroad rate committee of the
Roswell Commercial Club, composed
of w. A. Johnson, Harold Hurd, A
Pruit and r. H. Kemp, met last night
with d. l.. Myers, traffic manager of
the New Mexico Eastern Railway Co.,
and had a lengthy conference on the
unsatisfactory rate matters recently
discussed in more detail by the Daily
Record, with the result that salts
factory arrangement was made,
whereby reductions on many lines
will be made to the Pecos Valley in
the near future.
The committee has nothing for pub
lication just now as to the details of
the agreement with the traffic mana
ger. but their assurance THAI the meet
ing was satisfactory and tnat Mr.. My
ers did all that could be expected of
him, will suffice until Mr.. Myers can
consult connecting lines and officially
announce the reductions that are to
be made. This, it is assured, will be
forthcoming before long. Mr. Myers
left this morning for Amarillo.

somewhat and the New York crop to

Everyone now admits that the crop
is short Even buyers agree to this
condition. What about prices? They
are hign, very high, it seems to us.
Prices range from $3.50 per barrel to
So f. o. b. cars at shipping stations
The crop in Colorado is short, but
there will be a good many apples
there, nevertheless. A report from
Paonia says it is estimated that 10
carloads of apples will DE shipped
from there and while no prices nave
been made, it is thought that strictly
fancy apples will start at $3.50 per
box for the better grades.
Speaking of prices, the highest get
paid for apples this fall in San Juan
county is S1.S5 per box, received by
Henderson Bates, living four miles
above Aztec. 1t must be remembered,
however, that Mr.. Bates orchard con-
tains extra choice varieties. An idea
of what his apples are may be gained
from the fact that Receiver Fred Null
Ter, of the Santa Fe land cffce, has
written for box to send to Presi-
dent Roosevelt
Average prices around here range
about $1.50.-Sal Juan County Index.

WILL CONSIDER NAMING ITS REP
RESENTATIVE ON THE WA
TER COMMISSION.
THEN THE CITIZENS NEXT
If Council Names a Man, as 1t Prob
ably Will, the Honorable Body Will
is to Be Named the Independent
Member of the Commission.

A recess meeting of the city coun-
Gil has been called for tonight at 1880
at which is to be considered the prop
osition of naming a representative on
the water commission to look after
the matter of getting a municipal
water system. The Commercial Club
has selected a representative on this
commission in the person OF Hon. j.
F. Hinkle. According to the plan the
council will select a representative
and the citizens unattached to either
body will name the third If the coun-
Gil names a man tonight and thus ap
proves the plan of operation, it will
also call a citizens meeting, the busi
ness of which will be to name the
third representative.
1t is considered certain that the
council will approve of the plan.
So many members of the council
have already expressed themselves
favorably on the subject that it can
hardly fail.

GIRL THROWN BACKWARD
FROM MOVING TRAIN.

A young woman who boarded the
train to see off a friend, attempted
to leave the car while it was in mo-
ton today and, not understanding
how to dismount, stepped off back
ward and was thrown heavily on her
face and head. Luckily she was not
thrown under the wheels and was not
seriously hurt. Foolish habits are
plentiful, but one of the most general
in Roswell is that of getting on the
train to see off departing friends. 1t
is useless to talk, preach and write in
reproof of such things and 1t will take
a strong lesson to nave any effect in
this line in Roswell. But it will come
sooner Or later.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC FOUND
GUILTY OF GIVING REBATES

San Francisco, Cal, Oct. 3.-During g
the investigation yesterday by Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Lane
into alleged rebating practices of the
Southern Pacific and Santa Fe Rail
way Companies in California, ]. NJ.
Brewer, freight claim agent of the
Southern Pacific, was examined in an
attempt to show that mis- road had
granted rebate payments 10 interstate
shippers and the company had sought
to evade responsibility under the fed
eral law by making rebates apply to
shipments in the state.
Up to adjournment it had not been
shown that rebates were in reality
granted in interstate shipments.
Over fifty concerns, it is claimed,
were granted rebates. Most of these
hundreds of transactions were SHOWN
to have taken place during 1906.

Power of Punctuation.

Even a comma may play the very
deuce. Not many years ago a distin-
guished graduate of Oxford decided
to enter the Non-conformist ministry
announced this intention in NANTES
to containing the words, 4 shall wear
no clothes, to distinguish me from
my fellow Christians" That delight

Norris & Rowe bring their circus
to US this season with the satisfying
fact that it is the twentieth year OF
their partnership. In the series of

experience of years, backed by un-
limited financial means tave been
brought into action for the making
of a circus, menagerie, museum, hip

GOLD EAST OF PEcOS.
Doctors Clarke and DunaWay
Made the Discovery.


From Artesia News.
Not content with being the finest
fruit and farm section of the United
States, and with having an oil field
being developed within its bounda-
ries, the Pecos Valley now comes to
the front as a mining region, and as
it has the best of everything else it
must start out with the best and most
costly of minerals. Also Artesia leads
again, as the gold was discovered al
most due east of this place.
Drs. Clarke and Dunaway were
looking for specimens of copper east
of the river about two weeks ago,
and picked up a rock which on close
inspection proved to be gold bearing.
Tney drove back to the place where
they had found the first sign and Sc
cured other specimens. On returning
home they subjected the rocks to
some process unknown to the COM
mon herd and now have several little
gold balls to show for their work. If
the gold is found in paying quantities
we may expect business 10 look up
in this vicinity even more SO than it
has in the past few months.
