THE GREAT PEcOS VALLEY
OF NEW MEXICO,

from the Earth.
In this issue of the Earth is a story
of the Pecos Valley of New Mexico,
wnere the general government re-
Gently has opened two big irrigation
projects. The Pecos Valley is an old
story in The Earth, but it is develop
ing so rapidly, and its arabic area
growing so wide yearly by added
means of irrigation, that observing
correspondents can always give to
it fresh interest. In his issue. the
correspondent tells especially of the
HOndo and the Carlsbad projects, and
of the big area of and which the
water they will supply reclaims from
the desert. The readers Of The Earth
already nave been told by its CORE
spondents of the fertility of the Pc
cos Valley and of the diversity and
profit of it's farm products. Ia it's
native state, the soil of this valley
is arid n unproductive, but the nour
ishing touch of water makes of it a
fruitful garden unsurpassed in the
world. What the early irrigation can
ais, fed by the smaller streams, have
done for the land around Roswell,
and what the artesial wells have done
and will continue to do for the middle
valley, the Hondo and the Carlsbad
reservoirs will do for the arid lands
which lie under them. These reser-
voirs will nourish only about $4,000
acres, or 10000 at the outside, but
once under the ditch always under
the ditch, and o they will be a gar
den forever. Added to this, is a wide
domain of equally good soil adjacent,
which sooner Or later, will come into
use by pumping the shallow water,
which lies in abundance beneath it.
But more tina all is the vast middle
valley. whf~h lies within the artesian
arear, and which only is in the begin
ing of its development. For wherever
a well is drilled, flowing water is
tapped, and intelligent tillage oes
the rest. This raw land is cheap
and within five years a farmer may
have a plantation of orchard, meadow
and field that will insure for him a
competency for life and for his child
rem after him. This land is so easily
titled and so sure of crops and or
chard and meadow, once established,
SO certain of yearly production, that
one nay make a beginning OF a small
tract ve1 in his old age. Both men
and women, weary of the struggle in
the older states, where climatic con-
ditions sometimes are adverse, find
new opportunity n a certainty of a
livelihood in his valley, where by the
judicious use of water and three hun
dred days of sunshine, what one
plants is sure to produce a~bundantly.
1t especially is inviting to women,
VINO are alone in the battle of life
to teachers, who are tired of the grind
of their profession and the uncertainty
provision for DID age; and to wild
ows with little means, who have boys
and girls to bring up. To all these,
there is opportunity for five, ten,
twenty or forty acres or more n a
one established settles
the question Of a comfortable old age
and plenty to spare for the education
of the younger members of the house
hold.
There is a thought in this for wo-
upon whom misfortune has put
the responsibility of making a living.

1t is generally agreed in Roswell
by men who are best acquainted with
Mr.. Curry that whatever he decides
or promises to do, he will do. They
say that he cannot be bought one
way or the other,-that he doesn't
care for money, and would rather
borrow from his friends tnan sell to
ais enemies.

the trademark OF political respecta-
bility, and gain recognition by the
National organization. Its standing
Is largely augmented by Republicans
in the section of the Territory where
different conditions exist, but who
do not know the character of their
recognized leaders or the manner in
which they gained and successfully
maintain their leadership. The Mex
lean voter, OF a majority of it is rec
ognized and is Irresponsible, in proof
of which we cite the fact that last
year the Democrats nominated a Mex
lean for congressional delegate with
the nope that Mexican pride would
influence the natives to support their
candidate, but the ruse fell fat, their
former political priests having antic-
ipated the move and fixed" things
in advance.
But what's the use?
We think it a great misfortune to
the Territory that Governor. Hager-
man resigned, and the circumstances
attending his resignation show clear
ly that the old order has triumpned,
and that the time is not yet come for
a clean, progressive administration of
Territorial affairs.
George Curry, the newly appointed
Governor, is well known in his sec
ton of New Mexico. He was recog-
nized as a Democrat when he left the
Territory at the outbreak of the Span
ish-American war, and was one of
R~oosevelt's rough riders, which is
sufficient passport into the in1ermost
recesses of governmental science a
la Roosevelt. 1t is the prevailing
opinion among those VINO knew him
here that the nine years tutorage
under Uncle Sam has greatly aug
mented the new Governors states
m~anship, and that we are at least
spared of a calamity. Both Republi-
cans and Democrats are greatly dis
appointed and chagrined at the re-
tirement of Governor Hagerman.

vice on the part of h m who pre-

the politicians will run things their

To illustrate the fact that people
believe George Curry will do what

told of how he broke a deadlock at
Santa Fee. The story also shows to
what desperate measures the old Re
