was killed in the Civil war, was born
I'm Kentucky. Young George remain
ed with his mother at the place of
his birth until 1874, and by his la
Dor aided i'm her support. Being thus
early thrown upon his own resources
he was forced in consequence to neg
lect his education, but in the school
Of experience he learned many valu-
able lessons, and developing the tall
ents with which nature endowed him.
He became a well developed man OF
broad general information. AT the
age of II, he moved with his mother
to Dodge City, Kan, where Mrs. Cur
ry died In 1879. IA the age of II
years, George Curry came TO New
Mexico and located near Fort Stan
ton, Lincoln county, where he began
work on a cattle ranch. For this
work he received the large wages of
$50 for three months services. Then
he secured a clerkship in the store
of j. G. Delaney at a salary of $25
month.
He entered politics in New Mexico
in 1884, receiving an appointment as
deputy to J. ]. Dolan, then county
treasurer of Lincoln county. He was
elected treasurer of Lincoln county
four years later, and from that time
till 1894 held offices of trust in Lin
coin county In 1894 he was elected
To the territorial senate 10 represent
Lincoln, Chaves, Eddy Dona Ana and
Grant counties. His policy oi square
ness in office and personal popular
ity won him large support and he
was elected president OF the upper
house of the Legislature, which posi-
ton he held with distinction, He
has studied closely the questions and
issues of the day and few men are
more thoroughly informed on the po-
litical history of the country than
George Curry.
He served as clerk of the Fifth ju-
dicial district court of New Mexico
and was a major on the staff of Gov
ernor II. Thornton in 1895.
While a resident of New Mexico he
always took a deep interest in the
welfare Of the country and was ever
ready with hand and pocketbook TO
aid any proposition for its develop
ment.
At the first call for volunteers when
war with Spain was declared, George
Curry was i'm the front rank of
those who responded, and he went TO
war as captain Of Troop II, First
Regiment OF the United States Rough
Rider Cavalry. He went through the
war in Cuba, and when operations
shifted TO the Philippines. he re-en-
listed as a captain. His record is
that of a gallant soldier, "a statement

the president which spoke so plainly
of the actions of the former governor
that he would doubtless have been
constrained to remove the man from
office summarily had not Hagerman
read the writing on the wall and re-
signed of his own accord.
From Monday. Jan. 22, 1906, when
Governor Hagerman was inaugurated
under the most favorable auspices of
any man who ever filled the office OF
executive, until a few days ago, when
he left New Mexico for Washington,
the political situation in New Mexico
has been a continual turmoil.
The republican party unused to an
executive who would as soon place
in office a democrat as a good repub-
lican and who appeared to oppose
everything the party desired. was
unable to maintain its usual solid or
ganization. County offices TO the i'm
portant position of delegate to con-
gress all were jeOpardized by this boy
executive and it was only By the most
heroic efforts that the party leaders
were able to partly stem the tide and
maintain republican supremacy in
this territory. He could not be reas-

AS no RESULTS OF SNOW

Omaha, Neb., April 1s.-Five inch
es of snow fell during the night and
continued this morning. The fall Is
general in eastern Nebraska and is
the heaviest in April for many years.
1t Is not believed that any serious
damage will result. Although the
opinion as TO its effect on fruit and
early vegetables varies, in grain cir

kill the green bugs which had been
threatening the winter wheat crop.

BIG MUSICAL FESTIVAL 4.
AT LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY

Louisville, April 1S.-The railroads
thought the musical festival given
tonight in the first regiment armory
of such consequence as to give ex-
cursion rates of one and one-third
fare. which IS something they are
very chary of doing in these latter
days. Many merchants have sold
season tickets to out-ofstoWn custo-

The south end OF the armory was

scriblng $500 to the festival fund.

HON. GEORGE CURRY
THE SOLDIER GOVERNOR

George Curry the newly appointed
governor of New Mexico, was Rough
Rider and "A captain of one of the
troops of gallant soldiers that fought
at San Juan Hill with Colonel
Roosevelt, Major w. II. II. Llewellyn
and other prominent men now serV-
ing in official life.
He returns to New mexico after an
absense of nine years, resigning as
governor of the Island of Samar,
Philippine Islands, an honor he gain
ed through distinguished duty as a
soldier during the Philippine war.
The story of how he was lost on the
Island of Samar for several days and
reported killed Is yet fresh in the
minds of the people of New Mexico.
The valor displayed on the battle field
shows Curry thoroughly fitted for
any position which he may be ap-
pointed to nil. At the time he was
reported killed in the Philippines
Captain Curry had yentured into the
interior, where his command had
been surprised by a band of Phili-
pinos outnumbering his soldiers six
TO one. After holding the enemy at
bay for n day and at last realizing
that ultimate annihiliation was GER
tain, the gallant captain gave the or
der for every man to save his life If
possible. After laying concealed in
swamp for two days without rations
and with nothing but swamp water
to drink, Curry made his way back
to camp. where he Immediately or
ganized another command and went
back to the scene OF the first battle.
The subjection of the natives and
the declaring of peace on the Island
of Samar was the result

RAILROADS MUST BE MORE AC-
COMMODATING.

OOMMODdlkNu.
The decision of the United States
Supreme Court in the case of the At
lantic Coast Line against the Corpor-
alton Commission of North Carolina
is doubtless something of a surprise
TO the railroads. 1t seems that the
eomission made an order that the
Atlantic Coast Line should make A
connection at Salem. n. c.. with an
other line running from the eastern
part of the state. The purpose of
the commission was to accommodate
a large number of travellers. The
railroad refused to comply with the
order on the ground that it would
have to put on another train to do so
and also that the order practically
amounted to confiseation Of prop
erty.
The Supreme Court didn't accept
the view of the railroad. The rail-
roads are constructed with the view
of accommodating the public-at
least, that is one purpose of their
construction. Therefore, as there
was no reduction of the passenger
rate the court couldn't see wherein
there was confiscation of property.
As a matter of fact, railroads are
altogether too arbitrary in the mat
ter of making connections with other
roads. 1t appears to be their deter
mination not to put themselves out
in the least to make them for the ac-
commodation of passengers. We
have called attention a number of
times to the refusal in this state of
trains to wait a few minutes for their
authorized connections. thus incom-
moding many passengers Within
the last few months it has been the
rule to miss connections rather than
make them, and travellers and people
expecting their mail have been dis
appointed time and time again.
There have been occasions when a
wait of a few minutes would have
enabled the train that was behind
time to make the connection, but
there didn't seem to be disposition
10 be accommodating.
From the foregoing decision it
would appear that if a case were
made the courts would rule that the
railroads must arrange to make con-
nection where ordered by the Rail-
road Commission to do so and that
they wouldn't be excused for failing
to do so unless for a reason beyond
their control. In South Georgia the
people would certainly feel obliged
if a case were made against railroads
that so often miss their connections.
We predict that there will be such a
case made if the railroads do not do
better in the matter of connections in
future Savannah News.
Here in Florida connection is one
thing the railroads do not make, and
if you believe they do, try trip to
Punta Gorda or Tampa from Live
Oak via the Coast Line.

At the Thomas Jefferson Memorial
Association, a letter was made public
from ex-president Grover Cleveland,
approving the plan for reunion of
the descendants of the signers of the
declaration of independence at
jamestown on July 4th- The ex-
president says: 1T seems to me
that a reunion of the descendants
of the signers of the declaration of
independence on or about the date
when this immortal document was
signed would be a most impressive
incident in connection with the
jamestown exposition. Such a re-
union should certainly have a tenden-
cy to stimulate patriotic sentiment
and arouse among those who are
within its influence a better apprecia-
ton of the initial efforts of the faith
ers of the republic to establish new
nation. and impress upon it the best
ideals of a free government"

The Tampa Tines is not so sure
that a two-cent passenger fare will
force any branch lines in Florida to
shut down operations, but it is pref
ty certain in its own mind that trav-
cling in Florida is worth three
cents per mile to the man who does
it, and the railroad which carries him
ought to have that much-for the
present. We are in the stage of de-
velopment. and developing agencies
must be encouraged. Railroads are
