SKETCH OF NFW
SUPERINTENDENT
Marion L%ittreIl. an Old Resident Of
New Mexico Has Taken Posses

In view OF the interest created
throughout the territory by the APP
pointment OF Marion Littrell OF
this city as superintendent Of the
territorial penitent arv al Santa Fe.
and the fact that he has long been
a we'll known and highly respected
citizen OF Ration and Colfax coun-
", a short sketch OF his interest
ing career will no doubt be read
with interest.
Mr.. Littrell came TO the terri
tory in the DAYS OF the open range
when the cattle king and the sheep
baron were virtual masters Of all
they surveyed and their 1--we stock
roamed at large. lie was then a.
bout eighteen years old and has
since resided continuously in this
county. From cowboy he rose
to be foreman Of an extensive cat
tie ranch and figured conspicuous
" in the past history OF the county.
His official career began when
he was elected sheriff. In poll
tics he is a staunch Republican.
Mr.. Littrell is a native Of Arkan-
sas, where he was horn in 1885.
While a young man he drifted in
to Texas and several years later
came to New Mexico. Following
his arrival here he became 4 ranch
man and followed that business
until he became sheriff. He was
foreman for twelve years OF the
Maxwell Cattle company which
ranged its cattle on the Maxwell
land grant. He was first elected
sheriff in the fall OF 1898.
Mr.. Littrell's family consists Of
his wife, four daughters and son.
They are we'll known here and
have always moved in the best
social circles. He is a lifelong
friend Of Governor Curry and no
doubt this fact had considerable to
do with his selection by Acting
Governor Observation-Disclosures.

Marion Littrell qualified Monday

sum of $4,000 by the proper au-
thoritiea, whereupon he received
his commission and proceeded to
the penitentiavy, accompanied By
Assistant Superintendent r.. G.
Garrett.
Mr.. Littrell then made demand
upon the former superintendent to
turn over the institution in order
that he might take immediate
charge. The ex-superintendent
demurred to this, acting on advice
OF his counsel, X. II. Hanna,
practically insisting on a forcible
removal. The action Of Mr.. Trel-
ford was Immediately reported to
Acting Governor Reynolds, who
thereby instructed Superintendent
