this portion Of the County in re.
gard to Superintendent of
Schools, the Republicans un.
doubtedly struck the popular
chord in the nomination of c. A.
Chambers for that responsible
position.
The intense earnestness with
which the Professor is imbued in
the welfare of rural schools
coupled with his strong person
atty and freemasonary of man
ner is an inspiration all along the
line.
1t is essentially necessary that
a Superintendent should be am
icable, obliging and painstaking

strength of character to express
himself decisively when meeting

hoping to gain strength for fu.
ture ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. In the
discharge of his duties, if the
Supt. is competent and the
teachers are made of the right
kind Of material, stronger and
truer friendship is probable if
proper censure is made than if
all was praise.
A district employees a teacher
to disseminate knowledge. The
Supt. is employed by the county
to see that the very best methods
are studied to gain the end in
view. Those who follow the pro-
fession of teaching as a life work
are as anxious to succeed as are
the patrons to have a first class
school. Thus is it not only nee
essary but incumbent on the Co.
Supt. to fearlessly point out the
weak places and aid in the estab-
lishment of higher standards.
Teachers might be lkened unto
those engaged in other pursuits
in that too many drop in a groove
and follow methods too narrow.
AT this point it should be the
mission of the Supt. to broaden
and systemic, as the lack of ex.
ecutiye ability is apparent; and
do so in a manner forceful and
pointedly enough to carry requi-
site weight.
Such a man would be a lever Of
great proportions and prepare
the way for advancement in the
common schools. 1t would be
we'll that teachers make a record
whereby they can carry recon.

stalled.
IS TO BE A MUNICIPAL PLANT
Mayor Bursum Has Been at Work
on the Project for Some Time
TO Good Effect.

There is a very strong prob
ability that Socorro will soon
be equipped with a modern, up
to date electric light plant.
Mayor Bursum has had the pro-
iect under consideration for
some time and that means that
If such a plant can be made to
pay expenses it will be Install
ed.
Monday morning Mr.. BurSum
arrived in the city from the
north accompanied by William
A. Buddecke, president of the
Las Vegas Railway q Power
company. The two gentle
men canvassed the city very
thoroughly during the day with
a view to arriving at close esti-
mate of the probable revenue to
be derived from an electric light
plant, and The Chieftain IS glad
to be able to say that the results
were such as almost to insure the
undertaking of tie enterprise.
II present plans are carried into
execution the proposed plant will
be owned by the city. Whatever
other features of the plans may
be made, that one will doubtless
remain intact.
An electric lighting plant is
one of the modern improvements
that Socorro very much needs.
The spirit of improvement is
now aroused in the city and
everybody will doubtless be
ready to give this project his
loyal support.

about Organizing Such Leagues

lowing letter:
October 18th, 1907.
Hon. II. o. Bursum,
Chairman, Republican Central
Committee,
Socorro, New Mexico.
My Dear Mr.. Bursum:
AT meeting of the citizens of
Santa Fe to organize a statehood
league, / was requested to cor
respond with the Chairman of
the Republican and Democratic
Central Committees of each Coun-
ty in the Territory of New Mex
leo, requesting them to assist in
organizing statehood leagues and
adopt such other measures as was
believed would assist us in our
fight for statehood during the
coming session of congress.
After mature deliberation, l
thought it best to request you
and Mr.. Jones to correspond with
your different Central Committees
instead of myself. | believe this
will be best.
Everything looks favorable and
| believe with the people of New
Mexico, united as they appear to
be, we will secure the passage of
an enabling act during the COM
ing session of congress.
| will be pleased to cooperate
with you and Mr.. Jones in any
way that you may suggest and
think it would be we'll for MS to
have a meeting in the near fu-
ture with a view of discussing
matters more fully. The state
hood fight must be made in the
name of the people of New Mex
leo; after we have secured state
hood, we can then fight our po.
litical battles at home.
/ will be pleased to hear from
you and receive such suggestions
as you may think proper.
Very truly yours,

would bring. The administra-
tion's policies are accepted and
approved. Only the knowledge
that Roosevelt will continue at
the helm is needed to inaugurate
anew an era of prosperity on a
safer and sounder basis than
ever before. Call it third
term or a second elective term,
as you like; the exigencies of the
times demand that he serve four
more years. 1t is a patriotic
duty which he owes to his coun-
try. He cannot shirk it, if lie
would, without making self
greater than country and forfeit

not shirk it once the people
make their wishes known. Now
is the time for them to be

that he was not satisfied as to
what was really best; that he de-
sired to hear from actual and
bona fide representatives of the
interests most concerned; and
that whatever might be for the
greatest benefit he would gladly
cooperate toward securing. 1t
is my belief that whatever injus-
tice has been done has not been
done with any idea of injury to
any one, but it has been done
on account of not understand
ing the real conditions. | have
every confidence that if these
matters are properly presented,
that if our claims and rights
are clearly expressed, in order
that the true conditions of the
public range in which all of us
are so vitality interested, may
be known and understood, that
we can confidently expect justice
at the hands of the government
officials"
