Hard Knock.

The Moquero Monitor, owned and
controlled by the Moquero Publishing
Co., in one of its articles of June Goth
tried to hand Roy package about
spending such large amount of
money trying to secure water for the
townsite, and stated that it was a fail
ure. Roy has a city we'll at a depth of
1888 feet with plenty of good water to
supply the town, and a number of
wells in the vicinity from 18 to 100 feet
with sufficient amount for domestic
use.
We cannot say anything in regard
to the we'll at Moquero as we never
heard of it until recently, but will say
if the well is not sufficient to quench
the thirst of the people who will be
there on the excursion days, we will
be glad to divide with them.
We invite the editor to get on his
COW pony and ride up and give us a
visit and see for himself.

PROSPERITY HERE.
Roy and Vicinity Bound to Become One
Of The Most Thriving Commun-
tiles in New Mexico.

Whether 1t was prayer, or need or
merely the natural working out of at
mospheric conditions that brought it,
the rains of last week and this, were
one of the most welcome things that
have visited this section for some time.
Farmers, stockmen and property
owners in Roy and vicinity all well
coined the noise that the showers made
and rejoiced in unison.
Where are the croakers now?
If the few people that left here for
the sake of trying to better their con-
ditions, were here now and could see
broad smiles worn by those they left
behind, their pessimism would be
gone, the future would look bright and
they would don the broad smiles and
be happy like the rest of us.
A good many Of these people will
probably return in the fall to harvest
their crops-crops they did not expect
to get, and remain here, being wiser
and better prepared to stand little
adversely than when they left.
Everybody is up and doing, the
sound of the hammer and the buzz of
the saw is heard in all directions, the
grass and other crops are growing
nicely, and the merchants are all do
ing a Aourishing business. Every
things tends to show that the future OF
Roy and vicinity is indeed bright.
There is no better soil in Uncle
Sans domain, and those who cast
their lot with us will surely be re-
warded with good home, happiness
and contentment.

Different Views.

An eastern editor says man got
into trouble by marrying two wives.
A western editor says that many men
have done the same thing by marrying
one. A northern editor says that a
number of his friends found trouble
by merely promising to marry without
going any farther. A southern editor
says friend of his was bothered
enough when he was simply found in
company with another mans wife.

The BOYS RETURN
After an Absence Of Nearly Two Weeks
The Surveying Party Returns
Well and Hearty.

A. S. Bushkevitz's party of survey
ors consisting of DR.. Brown, Lem"
Brown, John Turner, Will Strickland
and Floyd Ogden, returned from their
sojourn in the mountains late Sunday
afternoon looking wild and woody.
From their appearance the mountain
BARRIERS evidently made no great sum
off of this crowd. Barring little mis-
fortunes like break-downs and loosing
trails the boys all report an excellent
trip, and are very enthusiastic abort
the green valleys of the Ocate. AL
falfa and corn waving in the breeze
was sight worth seeing.
The country around Ocate had also
suffered from the drouth and had ii
not been for the hospitality of MIR.
Valdez, big sheep man, they would
have suffered for horse feed. He
would sell no feed, yet he would feed
their horses. While there the boys
attended a party given by him in
honor of his daughters return from
college. Mr.. Valdez evidently has a
warm spot in their hearts.
They also visited old Fort Union,
once protection and refuge for the
travellers of the Santa Fe trail, but
now a refuge for snakes, bats and
eagles. The boys registered their
names in the prison below those who
had once occupied it.
| The only night it stormed they were
lucky enough to find a shanty in q
mountain pass, and although the own
er was rather persistent about vaca.
tion they managed to keep possession
until morning.
1t was a good bear country ant
some of the crowd were veteran beal
hunters. However, there was nc
"b-a-a-r" brought into camp eithel
dead or alive.
The only thing they brought home
relative to a bear was the ap )etite
They say they eat anything and every
thing from wild duck stews to burned
beans. Most of the bears were killed
around the camp fires at night.

Hon. W. n. Andrews Coming.

Mr.. Andrews, the candidate for the
61st Congress is coming to Roy to
meet friends.
Mr.. Bushkevitz is in receipt of let
ter stating that he will leave for Ros-
well the 3rd with Gov. Curry to attend
the 4th July celebration, and will re-
turn to Santa Fe the 5th. After which
he VIII pay us the long promised visit
and will wire Mr.. Bushkevitz about
the exact date.
The people should all turn out to
welcome our delegate, who has accom-
plished so much good for our people
and territory. All the people who
wish to meet the delegate should be in
town on the day of his arrival and
hear what he will have to say. There
will be ball given at the Bushkevitz
hall in honor of his visit to Roy.
This is the time for all good repub-
licans and democrats to turn out and
give him a grand welcome.
Hon. w. H. Andrews is a very
prominent and influential person in
house of representatives. He has ac-
complished more good than any other
delegate ever sent to Washington, and
if reelected we can expect statehood
in the short session of Congress, as
President Roosevelt expressed a desire
to sign the bill making New Mexico a
State before he steps out of the Presi-
] Dental chair.

On His Rounds.

A representative of the Spanish
American had the pleasure of being
shown through the large store of the
Floersheim Mercantile Co. at this
place one day last week.
This company has five large stores
in the territory and is Incorporated.
The Big Store at this place has an
immense amount invested in buildings
and stocks and carry as near COM
plete line of everything as any store
in the Southwest, and do large
wholesale as we'll as retail business.
The buildings consist of a large
three story stone and iron building,
where they carry complete line of la
dies and gents furnishings, dry
goods, groceries, hardware, furniture,
carpets, rugs, etc. The basement is
loaded with all kinds of eatables. An
elevator has recently been installed to
convey goods from the basement which
adds greatly to their conveniences.
Also large hay, grain and feed
warehouse, large wholesale storage
house, wagon and farm implement
sheds, lumber yard, coal yard and
other smaller buildings used as stor-
age houses.
This year alone the firm has sold
and distributed over eight cars OF
seeds, and are the largest buyers and
shippers of wool and hides in the
country. Everything is purchased in
car load lots thus enabling them to
get low prices as well as a cheap
freight rate.
Mr.. Goodman should be given much
credit for the successful management
of this extensive establishment.

Not in Oregon.

In Oregon now candidate for pub
lie office can not ask a friend to vote
for him, can not treat a constituent on
election day, can not give campaign
button to his friend, can not say un-
truthful things about his opponent.
That looks like an attempt to reduce
the campaign to Sunday school
basis.

Miraculous.

A conductor on the Gila Monster
Railway in southern Arizona is being
sued by young woman because he
wouldn't stop the train whenher Merry
Widow hat blew out the window.
Aside from the ethics of the situation
it is hard to see how horrid man
could be so cruel. The battling mys-
terry, however, is how the hat got
through the window.

Important Matter Settled.

The suit of Emma F. Thomas,
guardian, VS.. Eta Thomas, ct al, APP
pealed to the Court of Appeals from
a Judgment of the Ohio Circuit Court,
was reversed on the 9th inst, with
instructions that plaintiffs petition
be dismissed. This suit grew out
of the construction of the will OF
the late James A. Thomas. By the
terms of the opinion of the Court of
Appeals, the will is upheld according
to the construction given it by the
executives and children ofMr Thomas,
and all sales and conveyances made OF
testators property by his represen-
tatives are therefore valid and were
authorized by the will.

DELEGATE AND
ELECTORAL VOTE
In the Coming Election for
President.
WHAT THE CONSTITUTION SAYS
Each Party Has a Right to
Arrange It's Delegate
Vote to Suit Itself.

For the information of Herald read
ers we give the following table, which
shows the total delegate and cleo
toral vote, taken by States, at the
coming Presidential election and al
so gives the total popular vote cast
for all candidates for President at
the last election. Kentucky is emil
tied to one electoral vote from each
Congressional District-there being
eleven in all-and two from the State
at large, making total of thirteen.
This is In the Electoral College. In
he National Democratic Conventions.
according to party law, these num-
bers are multiplied by two. The Con-
s.itution of the United States, Arti-
Gle IL, section 2, says:
Each State shall appoint, in such
manner as the Legislature thereof
may direct a number of electors equal
to the whole numberof Senators and
Representative to which the State
may be entitled in the Congress; but
no Senator or Representative or per-
son holding an office of trust or prof
1t under the United States shall be
appointed as an elector."
This pertains to the Electoral Col
lege. Each party has a right to ar
range its delegate vote as best suits
itself, which matter is decided by the
National Convention. The following
delegate vote is for tthe Democratic
party;

CALEB POWERS

Pardoned by Gov. Wilson,
AS Was Expected.
POWERS TO RECEIVE OVATION
At Chicago This Week-NOt-
ed Assassination Case
Now at End.

Frankfort, KY, June 13.-Caleb
Powers, accused of being the arch
coEspirator in the assassination of
William Goebel, more than eight
years ago and three times convicted
of the crime, was this morning given
full an unconditional pardon by
Gov. Wilson. At the same time
Jim Howard, serving a life sentence
in the Frankfort penitentiary on the
Chrage of actually firing the shot in
the murder of Gov. Goebel, was also
given a pardon and restored to all
his rights of citizenship.
Although Gov Wilson has been
reading over the records in the two
cases for several months and an
nounced all along that he had not
reached a decision, there was very
little, If any, surprise created by his
decision to-day.
Howard left the prison shortly af-
ter O'Clock this morning and board
ed the 9:4O c. & o. train for Louis
vile. He was accompanied by sew
eral Republican officials. Assistant
Secretary of State Jackson Morris
took official notification of the par
don to Caleb Powers at the George
town Jail.
According to his own statement,
the Governor has had petitions sign
ed by over 100000 people urging the
pardons of the two men, and Of this
number he said there were 100000
Kentuckians, many Of them Demo-
Gratis.
Friends of Caleb Powers declare
that they propose to take him to the
National Republican convention at
Chicago next week, where they are
certain he will receive a most cor
dial welcome. Powers lef, tonight

KeIIey.Barnes Nuptials.

At o'clock p. m. Wednesday, June
10, az the NJ. f. Church in Beaver
Dam, Miss Bessie ID. Barnes and Mr..
Dal, NJ. Kelley were united in mar
riage by Rev. Virgil Elgin. All
things conspired to make the occas-
ion an ideal one. The altar, banked
with palms, ferns and snowy, starlike
jessamines, formed an artistic back
ground, while masses of glistening
goldenheaIted daises embedded in
delicate fnonds of fern further beau
tilted the pretty church in which the
vast concourse of friends assembled to
witness the nuptial rites of these
popular young people. With consum-
mate ease and precision, Messrs. Aus
tin Rhoads and Morton Williams per-
formed the duty of ushers, while Miss
Mac Biz never appeared daintiel- nor
more attractive than when as organ
ist she evoked from senseless ivory
the harmonious strains of Men,
delsohn's Wedding March, with q
magic touch and depth of expression
that both inspired and solemnized the
hearers.
From the vestibule, with step in
time and hearts at:uned to the melO-
dy, the bridal party-the embodiment
of feminine loveliness and manly dig
lnity-entered the church. Up the left
aisle the bridesmaids, attired in Co
lpenhagen blue silk, null and lace ell
princess and carrying elaborate bou-
quets of brides roses and ferns, pre-
l.cedad the bride, whose blonde beauty
was enhanced by her wedding gown
