franchise he would make arrange.
ments to build set of alleys. But tho
directors decided to take no chances
and the representative of the Bristol
team who was present secured the
franchise formerly held by New Brit.

there was long argument on the
question of having an eight team
league this season instead of a league
Of six teams as was the case last year
It was finally voted, however, to have
a six league team this year Herbert
French of the Young Mems Republi-
can club bowling team OF New Haven
was present at the meeting and made
an effort to have the Republican club
represented in the league, The drec-
tors, however, decided that one team

by the directors who stated that there
were several reasons why these small
towns should not be admitted The

such. My idea is that the Pecos Val
ley should fill it full to overf1owing g
with the very best exhibit tnat shall
be at Albuquerque, if possible. That
in filling that space SO much should
be allotted TO Chaves county and so
much to Eddy county, and then in the
Chaves county space so much should
be allotted to each, Roswell, Dexter,
Hagerman and Lake Arthur; and tae
Eddy county SPACE divided among its
several localities in the same way so
that each particular town or locality,
shown to the best interests of its
own town, but all pull together as a
whole. Let none of us be so small as
to let any petty jealousies Or preju-
dices arise among us in the matter
of a general exhibit, but let each To-
cality enter into the matter with the
keenest competitive motive and pur-
poses. The Roswell country will try
its very best to make its part of the
exhibit the best that was ever gotten
together in this vicinity.
| feel like the whole valley should
put forth every effort to do it's very
best in getting together the very best
exhibit that can be had and made up
in the Valley, and then if we can get
a good part of the delegates and Wis
itors at the Congress to visit our val
ley by special excursions from the
Congress, which has been promised,
we will have done much good in ad
vertising the resources and possibili-
ties of our Valley and good o~esults
will come to the valley from it.
We hope that harmony and push
will be the motto all through this
matter to the end and that the whole
valley may have better results from
our efforts and exhibit.
The Roswell Committee doesn't
feel like we are IT. (The PecOs Val
ley), but we do hope the Roswell
exhibit will be very much il
evidence at Albuquerque next Octo-
Der. Any time | can serve you, let
me know. Very truly yours,

ROSWELL REBEkAHS PUT
IN LODGE AT HAGERMAN

A party of nineteen members of
the Roswell lodge of Rebekahs went
to Hagerman New Years morning
and instituted Lodge No. 2, Daughters
of Rebekah, spent a pleasant day AID
night and returned this morning.
Upon their arrival at Hagerman
they were given quarters at the Hag-
erman hotel, where fine turkey din
ner was served. In the afternoon they
were given a drive over town, fol-
lowing which the new lodge was
formed. A fried chicken supper COM
pleted the pleasure of the afternoon
and at night the initiation of eighteen
new members by the Roswell degree
team afforded solemn and impressive
occupation for all. The initiation was
followed by a banquet.
The Roswell party was composed
of Mr.. and Mrs. A. V. K. Gillespie.
Mesdames F. A. Mueller, c. L. Aid,
ridge, Mark Howell, Hicks, John Bo
gar, P. A. Pierce, Thomas, Anna EN-

INSTITUTE
WON EASILY

Before a large and enthusiastic
crowd the Institute decisively won
the championship of the Pecos Val
ley by defeating a football team rep
rese1ting Hagerman and composed
of the best football talent of the val
ley. The score, 45 to 2, fairly repre-
sents the relative strength of the two
teams. The day was most ideal for a
football game. 1t was the first exhibit
ton of football given this year by
the cadets in Roswell and was eager
ly looked forward to by many The
Hagerman team arrived yesterday
morning and We're regarded By the
enthusiasts as most formidable pro-
position. Several of the men lowered
beyond the siX-foot mark, and they
Outweighed the Institute team by
about ten pounds to the man. The
visiting team was simply outclassed
in the knowledge of the game. They
were unable to gain the required dis
tance of ten yards but three times,
one of these being a beautiful end
did not attempt the forward pass du-
ring the game and depended mainly
on physical power and endurance for
gaining ground. The forward pass was
attempted twelve times and was sew
en- times successful and netted long
gains. Mr.. w. G. Hamilton, who wit
messed the Cor1ell-Pennsylvan and
the Army-Navy games, declared that
the forward passes used by the Insti-
tute were the equal of any he had
seen used in the East.
The peculiar formations of the In
stitute plays especially worked out
by Capt. Wymer, was a brilliant fea-
ture of the game.
The defeat administered to the ca
diets at Ell Paso seemed to serve as a
great stimulus to them, and a faster,
snappier squad than they would be
hard to find

Following is a copy of a letter writ
ten By County Commissioner w. NJ
Atkinson in regard to the Pecos Val
ley exhibit at the National Irrigation
Congress:
Roswell, n. NJ, Dec 30. 1907.
Mr. e. "A. Clayton,
''Artesia, New Mexico.
Dear Sir Replying to yours.
Since talking to more of our commit
tee ABOUT a Pecos Valley exhibit at
the Irrigation Congress next October
at Albuquerque. our committee under
stands and looks at tae matter as l
talked to you about at Artesia De
cember 21st, that is at the public
meeting held at the court house in
Roswell on the night of December
goth at which Governor Curry, Hope
well, Twitchell and others We're pres
ent and spoke in the interests of tee
National Irrigation Congress to be
held at Albuquerque next October, a
set Of resolutions passed and adop-
ted. to the effect that the Pecos Valley
raise and donate to the Board of Con
rol for the purpose of helping out the
expense OF preparing for said Con
gress, the sum of S3500.00, and ask
ed that a space of 5000 square feet
be allotted for a Pecos Valley exhib
it at said congress. The space was
granted by the hoard of Control. Tae
raising of the money is up to the peo-
pie of the Pecos Valley.
After these resolutions We're adopt
ed and at the same meeting, the
chairman of said meeting, Robert
Kellahin, by motion, was authorized
to and did afterward appoint a COM
mittee for the Roswell country of the
Pecos Valley, supposing that a COM
mittee would be appointed from eacn
of other Pecos Valley towns or local
tiles by the people of each locality or
community and that all committees
of the different localities in the Pecos
Valley would work in conjunction or
by a general subcommittee made up
from ali committees in the Valley,
would work together for the best int
erests OF the whole Valley, AID that
each local committee would work for
the best interests of its locality.
The committee as appointed for
Roswell is: J. F. Hinkle, chairman;
Chas. de Bremond, J. Smith Lea, w.
NJ Atkinson and K. S. Woodruff. This
committee feels like it was appointed
especially for the Roswell country
and the best interests of the whole
Pecos Valley at the Irrigation Con-
gress. and we feel that if other local
tiles in the Pecos Valley have not ap-
pointed committees that each locali-
ty should appoint a committee to
work for the best interest of its 10
cality and that all the committees
should work together, or that a sub
committee should be made up of a
representative from each local COM
mittee. to work for the best interests
o. the whole valley. Let this general
committee get together and ask each
locality to raise, proportionately its
part of the s3,500.0o, or let the com
mittee assign proportionate part
of the s3.5OO.0O to each locality and
say to that locality to raise the
amount assigned.
This 5000 square feet space was as
s,aned TO and for Pecos Valley ex-
s,ibit. and should be worked for as
