INTERVIEWED
Strong in His Praise Of the
Work of Governor Curry
and Delegate Andrews
Bill Met No Opposition at Wash
ington.

The News reporter interviewed
w. +. Buchanan on his return
from Washington a few days ago
in regard to his work in securing
the passage of the Land District
bill, creating the new land office,
OF which Tucumcari will be the
location. He said: "On learning
that Clayton was preparing to
fight the bill, and was sending Mr..
Fox to Washington for that pur-
pose, | decided that it was best
for me to return to Washington
and keep my eye on matters. On
arriving there | learned that he had
reached the city before me and
vas opposing the measure. How
ever, | felt quite sure he would
not be able to accomplish any,
thing against the passage OF the
bill. | got next to the condi-
ton of things at once, and learned
that the opposition was not being
well taken at washington. The
bill was in the hands of the Inter-
ior Department when | arrived,
and passed the house that after
noon; and Immediately, that even
ing, Delegate Andrews carried the
bill to the Senate. The following
day Fox left Washington, and the
bill was before the Senate with alb
solutely no opposition.
II feel that almost the I'M
divided credit for the passage of
the bill is due Governor George
and Delegate Andrews, The
unanimous support given the
same, and the withdrawal of the
opposition locally was entirely due
70 their work and influence, and
want the people of Quay county to
recognize this fact. | understand
Governor Curry and Delegate
Andrews are to be invited to visit
,ur town and | am mighty glad Of
t. | want them to understand
he appreciation our people have
their help"
When asked about the pulse of
business conditions in the east, he
aid: Business conditions are
some better, in fact inn
very rapidly, although it
viii be some time before things
will get back to normal. While in
Jew York | heard several men say
hat business from the west is
bout back to normal, that is or
Iers from the west are good. For
anuary and February orders were
much better than was expected,
nd in February orders had nearly
esumed the normal condition"
In addition to the good work of
Governor Curry and Delegate An
lrews the News and the people OF
his county recognize the good
york of NJ. c. Mechem and w. +.
Buchanan. On the two trips made
" Mr.. Buchanan and the trip
" Mr.. Mechem, they went upon
heir own expences and voluntarily
ave their time to the work. The
Business Mems League refunded a
'art OF this expense, but a large
'art was borne personally by them.
