IMPORT ANT RECORDS
ARE NECESSARY
To Answer Hagerman Charges
Against Secretary and Surveyor

In the letter addressed to the Presi
dent of the United States by ex-Gov.
ernor Herbert ]. Hagerman, dated
May Is, 1907, in which the ex-Gover-
nor attempted to place the President
in an unenviable and improper light
charges are made also that Acting
Governor J, w. Reynolds and Sur.
veyor General Morgan O. Llewellyn
acted in an unlawful manner in Ger.
tain land transactions by the Territor.
ial land board in the case of the sale
and transfer of about 5000 acres of
Territorial land to r. A. Schomberg
and number of others.
A representative Of the New Mex
ican called on Acting Governor Ray
nolds today and requested information
concerning the charge. Acting Gov.
ernor Reynolds stated that the matter
referred to could and would be easily
explained by an examination of the
official records In the case and until
such examination could be had be did

In this connection the reporter Of

the selection of public lands for the
Territory, or the Board of Public
Lands now out of existence and Of he

terror in the National Capital Even
such important records as the books
containing the minutes of official pro.
ceedings and Of the deeds issued by
the Territory to persons who have
purchased land were among the rec.
ords in Washington. 1t seems that
about one of the last official acts of
Ex-Governor Hagerman was an order
to the Commissioner of Public Lands
to pack these records and turn them
over to the Ex-Governor who for.
Warded them to the Secretary of the
Interior at Washington, where they
now are. The reasons for this extra
ordinary proceeding were not made
public then and they are not now
generally known -
Several attorneys who were re-
quested to give their opinion on this
act of the Ex-Governor stated that
they believe it to have been highly
improper and unjustifable as the
proper place for these records, contain

A Striking Article ON nIvnrne

a striking divorce article entitled why
American Marriages Fail" by Mrs Anna
\. Rogers of Washington, D. c., appears
in the September Atlantic Her theory
is that in nine divorce cases out of ten,
the wife is to blame, because with her
marriage is tine great duty and work in
life, while of necessity with the husband
business or profession divides his inter-
est. Mrs. Rogers holds that American
women are overfed, over dressed and
override. The frantic and extensive
shopping noticed in our large cities the
devotion to personal vanities, and the
general extravaganza of living are all
signs that making a home and dwelling
therein does not fill the modern woman's
hours. AS the writer herself is a woman,
the article exhibits a peculiar sympathy;
moreover, it is, in the main, optimistic
It is a wise, deliberated, and clarifying
treatment of a perplexed subject.
