Office has been busy during the past
two weeks comparing the certified
statements of the boards of county
commissioners with the tally sheets in
the poll books and going over the to-
tails to see that there were no mistakes
made in adding.
According to the official returns. the
total vote cast was $3.50. OF these
Andrews received 27G25, Larrazolo

GROSSLY IGNORANT
ABOUT NEW MEXICO
Prominent New York Book Firm
Thinks Territory is a Part of
Mexico-A Case in Point.

To prove how densely ignorant
even very well educated people in the
East are, concerning New Mexico, the
New Mexican calls attention to the
following case which is in point. The
New Mexican below quotes a letter
from the University Society, Incorp-
GRATED, with Offices at Is Fifth avenue,
New York City, which society is sell
ing de luxe edition of THE Book
lovers Shakespeare" and is advertis-
ing the sale of this book widely in
leading newspapers.
w. A. Fleming Jones, U. S. Court
Commissioner and Land Attorney at
Las Cruces, wrote to the mouse for a
set of books. In answer he received
the following unique letter which, to
say the least, smells of gross ignor-
ance on the part of the educated man.
ayers of the University Association.
They may be college graduates and
highly educated but the contents of
the letter prove different state of
affairs.
The Letter.
"Your order for set of the Book
lovers Shakespeare as per our recent
offer in the Saturday Evening Post,
we acknowledge with many thanks,
and assure you, Mr.. Jones, that ship.
ment will be made just as soon as
We are advised that the books will be
retained, for the transportation
charges amount to considerable, and
we would not care to expend these
charges unless we were quite certain
that the books met with your approval,
but to points as far distant as New
Mexico we must deviate somewhat
from our general custom
Here follows some advertising mat.
ter, after which the letter ends as fol
lows:
"Just as soon as you receive the
volume you might let us know
whether it has proven satisfactory, and
1--we will then send you the remaining
80 volumes at our expense, you tc
pay the duty charges, which amount
to 10 per cent We enclose for youl
convenience stamped envelope and
lif the volume is satisfactory, send us
word and we will ship the balance Of
| the set at once"
| Evidently these managers do not
know that New Mexico is a territory
of the United States and has been
Isuch an one for sixty years, that it has
been clamoring for statehood fol
these six decades and is now endeav
oring to secure the passage of stat
ute BY congress for its admission as
Ia state, and that New Mexico has beer
prominently in the public eye in this
endeavor for at least thirty years.
1t does seem as If many Of the so
called educated eastern people shoult
be sent to the public schools to stud,
ia school geography.
