GOVERNOR HAGER-
MAN MAKES GOOD.

Governor Hagerman has succeeded
in defeating all vicious and bad deg
islation proposed by the old gang. He
has made appointments of his own
choosing, and all have been confirm
ed. There are several new men in
office. Both the Territorial and Trav-
cling Auditor are retained. They are
considered very fit men, and had the
endorsement OF the best business men
of the Territory. The appoi1tees for
Treasurer, Land Commissioner and
Coal Oil Inspector are well known
business men of ability and with
clean records. While there mas not
been much legislation of any kind
passed. and nothing of Importance
that the people wanted, it is not the
fault of the executive The failure of
Legislation must be aid at the doors
of Bursum. Holt, Frost and their
gang. However, this is III last of
Bursum and mis- sort. There will not
be any more Andrews Pennsylvania
ideas of government by n through

ficted o. the people of New Mexico.

Icompleting the route from Roswell
to that place. None Of them viii say
for a minute that the road should 1ot
be built. All say the money should
be given, but every man thinks 1t Is
the other fellows" that should put
up the coin. It was ever thus in do
ing a great public enterprise, the mer-
it of which cannot be assailed.
The excuse for not digging and
by which the delay is caused is. taat
Roswell should give part of the bonus
since Roswell would be benefited as
much as will Albuquerque. This ex-
cuse is absolutely groundless.
Albuquerque has been asked to put
up $4,000 as a bonus. Roswell men
have already put up ST. 500 in the line
and equipment of the Roswell-Tor-
rance route. Roswell put this money
in the venture when it was not known
whether it would be a success or not.
Roswell not only put in more thar
twice what Albuquerque is asked to
put in, but took all the risk, did the
pioneering and hardship of a new pro
position. Albuquerque is taking hold
of what it knows to be a success, pro-
fitting by RoswelPs experience. Fur
thermore, Albuquerque is getting the
same management that Roswell has
found successful.
Albuquerque's end of the road IS
much more difficult to build than Ros-

SINGER Sues Shuberts.

New York, March 2O.-Two suits
against the Shuberts were called to-
day in the city courts. the plaintiffs
being Templar SAKE, the London sin
ger, who seeks to ecove $4,000 claim
ed for wrongful discharge, and Walter
E. Perkins, a comedian, who sues for
1915 alleged to be unpaid on his con-
tract.
Templar Sake was a member of
The Blue Moon" company at a large
salary. when the a of My Lady's
Maid closed, throwing a number of
less expensive singers out of employ
ment. Mr.. SAKE alleges that he was
released to make room for one of these
lesser fry and estimates the damage
to his purse and dignity at $4,000. The
Shuberts plead a clause in the con
tract which provides that if at any
time the services of an artist prove
unsatisfactory to the managers they
may release him without notice. At
torneys for Sake alleges that such a
contract is illegal and hat such act
ion as provided canno be taken arbi-
trarily. The result of the suit is await
ed with great interest by theatrical
people, as it will settle the legal stat
rs of tine celebrated Shubert iron
contract.

Washington, March 20.-A statistic
ian of Washington gravely announces
that during the short session of con
gress recently closed the orators OF
the senate and house, aided and albeit
ed by the president and heads of de
partments, inflicted 9,247,3S6 words
upon a long suffering publican av.
erage output of more than $4,000
words an hour. This estimate is bas-
ed On the Congressional Record and
a considerable portion OF the total
consists of messages from the presi-
dent and reports from the depart
ments.
However, some of the best examples
of modern American oratory do not
appear in the voluminous and weari-
some pages of n Record, having been
stricken out at the personal request
of the speakers. One looks in vain
for this illuminating ~utterance of a
middle West congressman: THE Am

l u empyrean of Maine or sweeping
defiaatly over the Pacific main, will
not draw in its spurs or retire n

who declared: The foreign steam

these remarkable statements are al
equal to that attributed to a
southern statesman: Il am up a tree.

A VERSATILE GOVERNOR.

1T is pretty we'll established that
some of the Albuquerque Morning
Journal editorials are written in this
city and in the Capitol building. This
is a free country, to be sure. but the
man who engages in that sort of bus
mess must expect retaliation. If he
does not, he has much to learn con.
corning human nature and politics,
and especially New Mexico politics.
Santa Fe New Mexican.
The Colonel, by ~cowardly in1uendo,
is trying to create the impression
that the Governor dictates the edi-
torials of papers that are supporting
his policy of giving the Territory an
honest business administration. 1t is
undoubtedly true that some of the
Albuquerque Journals editorials are
written at Santa Fe. for the reason
that Mr.. A. B. Hening, associate edi-
tor OF that paper, is in Santa Fe re-
porting the proceedings of the legis-
lature, and there is nothing unusual
or strange in the fact that am editor
away from home should write n
mail editorials, both leaders mt
briefer comments. Possibly this is
why the lower house kicked Mr.. Hen
ing out of the galleries. However we
imagine the Journal is able to manu-
facture its own editorials, even with
out the assistance of our versatile
and accomplished Governor. Perhaps
the Colonel could dictate editorials
more to the point II promoting the
interests of the old gang. As for "hu-
man nature and New Mexico poll
tics" both appear to the Record to
retain many of the primitive passions
of the ancient cave dwellers.

THE PRESS AND STATE.

From Houston POST
Twenty-Five years. g there was
not a single wspa in the Unit
ed States whose news columns were
absolutely free from p~artisanship. To-
day there is no reputable newspaper
in all the LAND which Toes not give
reasonably honest reports of events.
To be sure, the effects of personal
bias and prejudice are found in the
chronicles of the press, because, like
all other writings, they receive some
colorilgs from the prejudices of their
authors, but as statements of fact
they are. as a rule, reliable. COinci-
dent with this development of the
press toward higher standings has
been a gradual growth along lines of
independent thought among the mass
IS of the people, from which has I'M
d~oubtedly sprung the reaction against
illegitimate methods in politics and
in business. which has stirred the
country during the last twelve
months.

wells yet she is having less than
half the amount to put up. 1t will
cost more than twice as much to
build Albuquerque's end of the road
than it did to build Roswell's end.
If anyone is asked to help AIbuquer
que raise the $4,000, bonus it should
be the little towns that will he on
the new route that will be greatly
benefited by its building, including
Willard, Estancia, Mcintosh, Mortar
ty, n Chilli. The road has cost
them nothing. 1t will benefit them
greatly.
Among the reasons that the road
should be built are, that the road will
put two enterprising metropolitan,
American towns of the Territory in
close touch with each other. The be-
nefts OF this proximity are many, n
of which will be their ability to "get
things in the future. Albuquerque
should come through. Roswell has
done it's part. Roswell always will
do its part in a public enterprise 1t
is up to Albuquerque to snow what
kind of stuff it is made of.
