The first test OF the elaborate and
costly electrical decorative scheme.
which the santa Tc has CONSTRUCTED
around the Alvarado hotel was made
last night, the lights being turned on
for about fifteen minutes and the
whole system working without a flaw.
There had been no announcement that
the lights would BE- tested last night,
it having been understood tina the
first test would be made ON sunday
night. But the work was practically
completed last night save Tor the
north end of the main building and
the current was turned uu at s o'clock
People gathered quickly ANA before
the current was switched off several
hundred spectators We're giving their

10000 PEOPLE IN
RADIUS OF TWO
MILES
Postmaster Estimates That
Mail Is Delivered to Fully.
10000 from the Local Post
office,

Postmaster r. w. Hopkins, after a
careful computation, estimates that
there are. on a conservative estimate,
twenty thousand people within a RAJ
dius of two miles from the A%lbuquer-
que postoffice. This takes in Barelas
and Old Albuquerque, and to those
who have been observing the growth
of the city for the past year, 10000
is believed to be quite within the
mark.
II have figured out with tolcrable
accuracy that mail is delivered to
eighteen thousand persons from the
local office said Mr.. Hopkins last
night, "and from the data | have at
hand, which is pretty comprehensive,
there is no doubt that there are at
least 10000 people within two miles
of the office"
While much of this population is
outside the present corporate limits of
the city of Albuquerque, it is uevcrthe-
less a fairly compact settlement which
is covered by the estimate.

Mr.. TAFT, he said, at the Grst OPP

people did rule, ana Mr., Sherman in
his FIRST speech had said that this
could not be the issue, because ii
would be an insult to the people to
say that they ala not rule.

cratic candidate, amid laughter anG
cheering, 81 win take YOU into my

that the people do rule they have re-
