TO THE FARMERS OF THE
VALLEY AROUND ROSWELL

The Irrigation Congress at AIbu-
querque this fall is a show of Inter
national Importance and a much big
ger thing than We realize until we
have fully looked into it. In attend
ance there will be people from all
over the world who are interested in
irrigation, and we of the eco Val
this valley in a way we may never
have again. The Congress is held re-
ally right at our doors and we should
take advantage of that act to show
the people who will come there from
all quarters of the globe that we
earth. We can easily show it by max
ing a good display of our products;
and we now ask the assistance of all
farmers, of not only the country ar
ound Roswell, but of the whole val
ley, in getting up an exhibit that will
surpass the exhibits that will be
sent from other states.
Washington, Idaho and all the fruit
growing states will have carloads OF
fruit and vegetables there, and we
of the Pecos Valley must not be be-
hind. I want to get at least two cars
of apples, pears and other fruits, and
make a showing that will turn the
eyes of the world on the Pecos Val
ley. In order to do so we will have
to have the support of the farmers.
| We want the best of the fruit you
have and will pay for what you feel
you cannot donate. Under any consid-
GRAFTON we want the fruit. It will be
shown, and those who have raised il
will have their names on it as grown
by such and such a farm of the Pecos
Valley. 1t is a big undertaking and
1 would like to ask the farmers to let
me know just what we a expect
from each one, not only what they
will donate, but what they will sell
US. 1t is to your interest as well as
ours.
I also want to get a good exhibit

FRED p. MILLER'S LONG
SUFFERING Is ENDED.


Fred P. Miller, aged SO years, died
Saturday afternoon at 4:30 at his
home in the southwestern part of Ala
media Heights, after a long and pain
will be shipped tomorrow morning to
his old home in Saginaw, Mich, &C
companied by the wife and little son,
who are the surviving members of his
family.
The deceased came to Roswell
three years ago last January, seeking
cure for lung trouble. At hat time he
appeared to be in the best of health,
and did well. After a time he went to
work for the Dilley Furniture Co,
and afterward in the grocery depart
ment of the Joyce-Pruit store. He was
apparently recovered inc went to his
old home in Saginaw, expecting to re-
main there if he found the climate
agreeable. But he was not long in the
Lake country until he took sick again,
worse tina ever, and returned to Ros-
well. But this time he did not recover
so rapidly and although he again
went to work for the Dilley firm, was
not strong. A trip to the mountains
this summe did him no gold.
AS to the man, every person who
knew him will sanction the statement
that he was one of the biggest heart
ed and best men thai ever lived. He
was a MAJ in a thousand.

said William H. Ward Republican national COM
mitteeman yesterday Speaking of the action of

indorsing the Ohio candidate on Thursday Mr..
Ward added 1T IS easy enough to be political

had a poll taken which showed unmstakably that
Taft was the favorite. 1t showed not only that he

statement that Pelham a straw ballot had
given Governor Hughes SO votes, while Tart hao re-
ceved only &C. was repeated to Mr.. Ward, who re-
piled:
THAT was taken away back last January, The
sentiment has changed very much since then. AL
the time this ballot was taken Alan Robinson
wrote me and suggested that he wait until April
/ and take another one. So far 1 can learn no
other ballot taken"
Regarding the straw ballot taken in New Rochelle
which gave Governor Hughes 1S0 to 5S for 1att
Mr. Ward said that this the home town OF
Charles II. Young the chief Hughes boomer OF the
state and the result not TO be wondered at'
II was learned that while New Rochelle and Pei
ham showed a preference for Governor Hughes the
sentiment was about five to two for Taft in 1on-
kers Mount Vernon, White Plains, PleasantVille

Martin w. Littleton, in stirring speech at the
annual dinner OF the Dwight Alumni Association
at the Hotel Astor last night, declared that the
Democratic party in the South unable to-day
to develop great statesmen. because the standard
of statesmanshp there had become the opposition
to the negro. This condition. he said, had been so
for the last twenty-five years.
MIR. LittletOn also spoke of the oblteration OF
state lines by the development of commercial in
ventiOns such as the telephone. ana predicted that
in "A future generation the states would he the
agents OF the federal government. instead of the
latter representing the states he said the stua

William Harris Douglas, of the original
Hughes men, who offered Hughes resolution
at the meeting Of the state committee about
five weeks ago, said last night that there would
be no opposition to amount to anything to a

1T is pretty safe to say that the man who
objects TO a resolution indorsing the Governor
for the Presidency will be found to be drunk"
After the meeting of the state committee,
Michael j. Dady. committeeman from Kings

to say on the convention floor to-day regarding

HUGHESCALLSELECTION
Continued from first page.

tumn bolted the LHommedieu Republicans, al
lied with the Stevens faction In Orleans County,
and was elected on an independent ticket with
Democratic Endorsement. Thus local political
affairs are in a chaotic condition without any
disturbances from outside. In a fight of the kind
which will be waged there the racing interests
will have to be reckoned with in both parties.
Their influence, their campaign contributions,
will be important features in the campaign. An
other thing which should not be overlooked In
this situation is the fact that while ex-Congress-
man Wadsworth is chairman Of the State Racing
Commission, and the Wadsworth forces nat
urally would favor the election OF a man not
unfrfendly to the racing interests, Superin-
tendent Stevens of the Public Works Depart
ment has a large stock farm in Wyoming Coun-
ty and is not considered especially friendly
TO the anti-racetrack gambling legislation.
Yet even if the election is held. and the can
didate chosen shall be pledged to vote for the
anti-gambng bills, the Governors battle will
not be won Racing Senators declared to-day
that in that case they would be prepared to
switch another Senator from the ranks of those
who supported the Governors bills, and main
tanned that they could do this with the greatest
ease ~hey regard the situation-or, at least
profess to regard it--as growing more hopeless
for the Governor every moment. There seems
little belief that caucus could be called. or
that II it were called it would hold the Repuo-
leans as a whole to party lines
on the other hand these men are not calcu-
lating on the reaction which already has begun
in the Governors favor. They manifest the
same scorn for ministers and the church people
which they showed all through the fight which
proved a drawn battle Seemingly the feeilng
which has been stirred by the temporary defeat
of the anti-gambng bills is far wider than
any one class of people or any section or the
state. 1t appears to be FAR more n'tter thal
any sentiment shown for the bills at first Ana
the Governors friends say that II the early
manifestations Of this sentiment are typical OF
developments in the next week or two the bill
Will be passed at the extra session or the entire
state will be In a turmoil
