ROUGH RIDERS REUNION
SHOULD COME TO ROSWELL

G. A. Richardson, president of the
to the Record this morning that the
next reunion of the Rough Rider reg
iment should be held in Roswell. 1t
will be recalled that the first reunion
of this regiment was held at Las We
gas, N. M, the second at Oklahoma
City, the third at Colorado Springs,
Colo, the fourth at San Antonio, Tex
and the fifth will, be held this year
at Prescott, Arizona, at which place
the unwilling of a monument erected
to the memory of Bucky OiNeil is to
take place.
The Record considers this sugges-
ton a good one. Mr.. Richardson aid
that he had considered it with Capt.
Ballard and Mr.. James Hamilton, the
only members of the regiment resid-
ing at Roswell, and it met their al
proval. He feels confident from talk
ing with other members of the regi-
ment, who are at present il the city,
that Roswell can secure the support
of all the Rough Riders in New Mex
leo, and their friends generally to aid
this movement.
Roswell would be glad to have this
gathering here, would appreciate it,
and would guarantee the entertain
ment of the organization and its
friends in a manner and upon a plan
that would meet the satisfaction and
approval of the mel who composed
this distinguished body of soldiers.
1t will be remembered that Roswell
furnished 20 men to that regiment,
and two of its officers, Captain Bal
and Captain Curry. Tw~enty-four

THE NEW eovERNoR-To-sE.

George Curry vas born in Louisiana
about As years ago. He came to New
Mexico il 1881, first living in Colfax
county. Moved to Lincoln county in
1885. He was first a clerk at the post
traders store in Fort Stanton. and af-
forwards was associated with J. ].
Dolan at Lincoln. He was at various
times probate clerk, assessor and
sheriff of Lincoln county. Was Terrific
rial councilman from this district in
1895. His present legal residence is
Roswell, but since 1898 he has been
in the army n government service
He is well known and very popular
with all the old timers, and is said
to be a practical politician of the typi-
cal New Mexico stripe.

1t is time to stop the Texas alnexa
ton dream. 1t vas started for politi-
cal effect. 1t is only sentimental, a
matter of impossibility, out of the
question, and what is more not the
wish of our citizens. If the thing were
left to an election on the part of the
Pecos Valley the vote would be ag-
ainst it, especially so in Roswell.
When j.. F. Hinkle walked down the
aisle at the convention hall he voiced
the sentiment of Roswell people in
saying: Il protest. You ann reso-
lutte to take away the birthrignt of
my children and my adopted home.
We are New Mexicans, and will re
main so forever. whether it re a state
or a territory. We are friendly to Tex
ans; we admire them as neighbors,
as friends and as a great and good
people. We appreciate the compli-
ment, the courtesy, but it is firmly,
resolutely and forever declined. We
are proud of our country and our peo-
pie, we love our valleys and our noun
tains. and as New Mexicals we will
forever remain"

IN assuming that the new appointee

Injunction HEARING Monday.

ST. Poul, Mimi, April 2O.-Judge
Lochren of the United States district
court will give a hearing Monday to
the application for an Injunction fill
ed by the ten railroads operating in
Minnesota against the state railroad
and warehouse commission to prevent
it from putting into effect the propos-
ed new schedule of commodity rates
and the order to show cause why the
attorney general should not dismiss
the mandamus proceedings which ne
started against the railroads in the
state district court. A supplemental
bill has been filed by attorneys for the
railroads in which the attorney gener-
al is made a defendant in the injunc-
ton suit against the state railroad com
mission. The hearing has been post
poned three times n another con-

1t was hardly fair to the cow men
for the Register-Tribune to publish
the annexation resolution as passed,
when it was in fact withdrawn by an
unanimous vote of the convention and
consigned to the waste basket. But

in type and had to use it as a space
filler.

Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1907-08-30

Cottonwood is very liable to
go in for foot ball this fall and
will put up a team that will be a
formidable one to be reckoned
with throughout Idaho and Nez
Perce counties. This place has
never taken much interest in
foot ball until this year but the
fact that there is all kinds of
material here for a good team
has caused some comment, and,
after Fred Mckinney offered to
put up $50 forfeit last week at
Grangeville on $100 bet that
Cottonwood could produce a
team that could wipe Grangeville
off the gridiron, the boys have
taken considerable interest in
the matter.
There is all kinds of material
here for one of the best foot ball
teams ever organized in the state
and if the boys get together they
will certainly have some of the
opposing teams as badly dis
counted as they have at base
ball. We know at this time of
eight old foot ball players who
will join the team if it is organ
lied and there is any quantity of
raw material that can be worked
into shape in short notice. Sew
eral members of the local base
ball team are also old foot ball
players and besides having the
weight and grit necessary to
make a winning team they are
also fast of foot and several can
hug 103 seconds pretty close in a
1OO-yard dash. While no organ
ization has as yet been effected
probable lineup has been Sc
lected and it will average close to
165 pounds to the man. Add to
this former experience, good
coaching and the speed that most
of the boys possess and a mighty
formidable team is the result.
Fred Mckinney has had
considerable experience at play
