A FOUR HORSE TEAM.

1890 = wv UNtIIy IIIUVptIlU0IIlJ
While driving in Bremen county the
latter days of last week this writer in
terviewed a farmer who was disking
his field where he raised corn last year.
Four fine, stately horses constituted
his team. We ventured to suggest that
this team was worth $500. His answer
was: Il have been offered $3.50 for one
Of these horses and S225 for another
If some one should offer me $1,000 to-
day for the four, ! wouldn't sell them,
at least not until ] had talked it over
with the boss at the home end of the
route" He said they were just colts
from four to six years old, and that
the lightest horse weighed 1,400 pounds
and the heaviest 1,500.

CONNECTS AS COMPETITORS.

tCedar RapldS Gazette.)
The state federation of labor will
make concerted effort to abolish COM
vict labor In Iowa. All will agree that
convict labor should interfere with free
labor as little as possible. But all will
certainly also agree that the convicts
should be employed. They must not be
kept in idleness. And those who have
no trade should be taught a trade.
Convict labor should not come in COM
petition with free labor to the extent
of hurting free labor; that is if tt is
necessary to sell the product of CON
vict labor in order to provide labor for
the convicts the state should be paid
for the convict labor the same that the
private manufacturer would pay for
free labor That is the least that
should be done II there are other
means of preventing competition, use
them, but 1t would be manifestly unjust
not to allow convicts to work, and to
work at some useful trade.

Had a Good Time.
The travelling men took the city
by storm. They came for a good time
and they had 1t in every respect.
They enjoyed all the good things of
life from the moment they hit the
pavement at the station until they
again took up their grips and hiked
for more business, and some of them
have not yet quit the city but will
remain until the close of the fair.
They welcomed the governor to
their midst and in return got his
warmest thanks and they particlpat-
ed in the big parade, later meeting
at their headquarters and handling
considerable business. Their "fe-
male" ball game was a feature of
Albuquerque day at the fair grounds,
and they wound IL all up by their
organization and election of officers.
They will come again on Thanks
giving day when It is believed the
membership will be doubled.

FIFTH CAVALRY BOYS
PLAY LIVELY
BASE BALL
Troop. Wins by Score of |
to 0.-SOldierS Know
the Game,

If the teams entered in the terri
torial fair base ball tournament had
been out to Traction park this morn
ing they would have probably picked
up a few pointers on the national
game, and Albuquerque fans could
have taken a few lessons in the art
of roofing.
The base ball teams Of troop l and
X of the United States Fifth cavalry
played one of the fastest games seen
on the Traction park diamond this
season. The score was l to in
favor of troop 1. Brewer was on the
firing line for the Is and had the X s
on his hip from the toss-up. Wick
ham pitched good ball for the KS,
but his support was not as fast as
the support of his opponent. The one
run was made by Walters and was
the result of a single, a sacrifice and
an error
The line-ups were as follows:
Troop Davidson, 2b.; Walters,
ss.; Trunklepaugh, IT,; Sims, 1b.;
Wright, CT; Hoagh, cf.; Collins, RI;
Conley c.; Brewer, p.
Troop K-McDonald, RI; Hanson,
II; Henry, c.; StOwman, 3b.; Leyen-
decker, 2b.; Smith, CT; Whiteman,
S.; Underwood, h.; Wickham, p.
A large number of troopers from
each troop witnessed the game and
cheered their favorites Justify and
roasted the players on the other side
with lively jest and witty sayings.

Reception Held Last Evening
in Honor of Chief
Executive.

Governor George Curry was a
guest last evening at a six o'clock
dinner at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
II. b. Ferguson in old Albuquerque,
few other guests also being pres
ent. From $3.50 until IL, a reception
in honor of the governor was held
at the Ferguson home. Mr.. and
Mrs Ferguson and Miss Ferguson
were assisted in receiving and serv-
ing by several wel known Albuquer-
que ladies.
The pretty home was beautifully
decorated in honor of its honored
guest and the evening was spent in
a most pleasant manner. large
number of prominent people were
present during the evening, includ-.
ing many from out of the city.
Governor Curry's well known pop
ularity was attested by the hearth
ness with which he was greeted by
his friends, and with Mr.. and Mrs.
Ferguson and daughter as hosts,
there was nothing left to be desired.

THEY ARE HERE
FROM EVERYWHERE

one of the interesting features OF
fair attendance this year is the
widely scattered area from which
the throngs of visitors have been
drawn A glance over the list Of no
tel arrivals during the past five days
demonstrates the fact that this year 5
fair has drawn not only a bigger,
noisier and more liberal crowd Of
sightseers, but that the attrac tons
Of the big carnival reached out into
a larger territory than ever before,
and that people are finding the AL
buquerque fair worth coming to
from adjoining states. A large num-
Der Of Albuquerque people are en-
tertaining friends and relatives from
way -back-east and the practice of
postpOning visits to Albuquerque
friends by fasteners until fair week
Is becoming a common practice,
and adding materially to the total
attendance figures.

FEW COMPLAINTS OF
tXORBITANT PRICES

But few complaints and these Of
minor importance, have been heard
during the week of eXhorbitant prices
being charged fair visitors. Though
the crowds have taxed the facilities
of the city in various lines, they have
been taken care of with uniform fair
ness and satisfaction. The restaur-
ants have done a rushing business
during the whole week but prices
have been maintained at practically
the regular standard, and the barber
shops, where petty graft has so Of
ten been claimed in larger cities,
have held TO the regular price sched-
ule In some quarters a scarcity Of
rooms has led TO some increase in
charge through voluntary offers, one

porting an offer of $3.50 per night
for a bed.

can secure statehood in a very short
time.
The governor was shown an inter-
view in an eastern paper quoting
him as authority for the statement
that President Roosevelt would be a
candidate for a third term and had
so announced himself. while on the
Mississippi river trip.
The governor dictated the follow
ing regarding the interview:
Albuquerque, n. M, Oct. IL, 1907.
Dispatches referred to do not
quote me exactly correct My mis-
sion to the president was in regard
to statehood and other matters of
interest to New Mexico. l took oc-
casion to tell the president that the
people of New Mexico feel very
kindly to him and appreciate what
he Is doing for the west. The presi-
dent did not discuss his candidacy
or anything relating to the presi-
dental election with me.
In my opinion the delegation to
the republican national convention
for the denomination of President
Roosevelt, and his own friends here
could not prevent it if. they desired,
as the feeling is strong here that he
should succeed himself in order that
he may carry to a successful con-
clusion the policies that he has in
augurated. Should President Roose-
vert refuse to accept the nomination
the people of New Mexico will sup
port whomever they believe will
come nearest to carrying out the
policies of President Roosevelt.

DAILY TRAIN SERVICE
FROM HERE TO
ROSWELL
Santa Fe viii Put on Through
Passenger Service On
November | Via Belen
Cutoff.
WILL OPEN GREAT
TRADE TERRITORY
Albuquerque viii Receive Busl-
ness From Vast Section Which
Was Heretofore Practically
Closed to Duke
City People.

1t Is reported on what is consid-
cred excellent authority that through
daily passenger service will be es-
tablished between Albuquerque and
Roswell on the Santa Fe via the Be-
len cutoff and Texico on November
l, and that a train will run each
way between the two cities, one leav-
ing here at Z a. m. and arriving at
Roswell in the evening and the other
leaying Roswell at a. m. and arriv-
ing here in the evening. The trains
Will run over the main line from
here to Belen and thence over the
Eastern Railway of New Mexico, or
as 1t is commonly called, 1.-The Be
len Cutoff" to Texico, here 1t will
pass the train coming this way and
proceeded hence to Roswell.
OF Vast Benefit.
The benefit of this service to AL
buquerque is limitless. since 1t will
give direct daily service with Ros-
well and a large number of towns
which have heretofore had practic-
ally no communication with the me-
tropolic of New Mexico. The entire
Pecos valley will be opened to this
citys trade and business which has
gone to El Paso and other southern
and eastern points will come this
way.
Beside Belen and the towns on the
main hne, Mouptainair, Willard and
other towns on the cut-off, Texico,
Portales, kenna. Roswell and towns
to the south will also have first class
connections with this city.
Opens Wide Territory.
So vast is the territory which this
service will give to Albuquerque for
ta mi 70 N no
described. All the Pecos valley from
one end to the other with it's scores
of fine towns. all of which are grow
ing very rapidly will be directly ION
the way" and as most New Mexico
people would rather visit Albuquer
que to do their trading than any
other place, there Is little doubt that
the wholesalers and retailers of this
favored city will reap a bountiful
harvest of business.
Shows Railroads Friendliness.
The service not only opens the big
trade territory to Albuquerque but
it also shows this city the friendli-
ness of the Santa Fe railway and its
principal officials toward this city.
1t was on a recent visit of the gen.
eral officials to this city that the
train service to Roswell was discuss
ed and arrangements made for its
operation.
Fare VIII be Reasonable.
At present a trip to Roswell is an
expensive matter, just shade bet
ter than trip to Chicago, in fact
as far as cost is concerned, and by
far the best route is over the Santa
Fe Central to Torrance and thence
by auto to Roswell, a trip that has
many great drawbacks.
Under the new system, the fare
will be reasonable and a trip to Ros-
we'll will not be expensive.
The new train will also be OF
much benefit to Roswell, in that 1t
will give that city many connections
which it has not had before and en-
able It's local business men to enter
new territory

Tales of famine and cannibalism
among the natives in northeastern
Canada were brought here today by
j. A. Osborne, an editor, who has
just completed a trip of exploration
of that desolate country. At Moose

had fled there in terror. His uncle
he said, had killed and eaten eight
human beings, and he also saw a
woman who last winter, during a
famine, killed and ate her two chill
