JAMES MULIENS.

Hon. James Mullins, better known
as "Jim,'' today announces himself
a candidate for Probate Clerk and Re
corder of Chaves county, subject to
the action of the Democratic prima-
ries. Mr.. Mullens was the first coun-
ty superintendent of Chaves county,
being elected in 1890. He skipped a
term, then served two more terms
in this Office, declining to run for
the third term in succession. At the
time he was first elected superintend-
ent, Jim Sutherland was also elected
county treasurer, and the two Jims
received each one every vote in the
county, 431.
Mr.. Mullens was a member of the
town board twice, and declined to run
a third time. While not a crank on
the third term proposition, he would
not individually become a candidate
Tor a third term after serving two
terms in succession in any county Of
fee. He realizes that others may dis
agree with him as to the wisdom of
this limitation. Everybody knows mis-
record in the recent legislature, and
he is not afraid to stand or fall on
that record. He is really the father
of the new educational bill. He was
a consistent advocate of the anti-gam-
bling BILL the artesian well law and
other good measures passed. He is
opposed to a herd law and always
stands out openly on all questions of
public interest. Mr.. Mullens has
taught school in Chaves and Lincoln
counties for a number of years, and
il all capacities has shown himself
competent and reliable. He has even
been in the newspaper business, run
ming the Register when it was a de-
cent Democratic paper, and being en-
ployed as a printer on the Record
When this paper was run by Joe Lea.
AS a Democrat and a man of integ-
rity, his history is too we'll known to
the people to require any further
comment. The voters VIII decide the
matter at the primaries.

By merely making the effort, Ros-
well, it is believed, may be able to
land the next meeting of the National
Wool Growers and Sheep Breeders
Association. At the last meeting of
the Association, in Salt Lake City, it
was admitted that New Mexico is en-
titled to the next gathering of the
sheep men, and Albuquerque could
have had it for the asking. But Eliza
White, who has just returned from
a meeting of the Sheep Sanitary
Board at Albuquerque, reports that
the Duke City will nave all it can DO
next summer and fall in entertaining
the National Irrigation Congress, and
that Roswell's way will be clear to
get the big gathering.
The sheep men are meeting this af-
ter1oon to consider the proposition
and to devise ways and means. The
Commercial Clubs officers are getting
interested and will have a meeting
before long to take up the subject.
The association carries with it an
sand visitors The crowd would be
larger than the one here during the
cattlemen's convention, and would be
a better advertising medium for the
reason that it's members come from
all parts of the United States. Its
members, for the most part, are men
of means and influence. To entertain
the visitors the people would have to
throw open their homes, as they did
during the cattlemen's convention.
But Roswell can handle the crowd
and should make arrangements to
do so.
The Association meets this yea at
Helena, Montana, on the 18th of this
month 1t meets the middle of eacn
January, and local sheep men state
that when it went to Helena it could
have been brought to New Mexico had
this towns representatives felt sure
that the people here would unite in
entertaining the visitors in sucn great
numbers.

WHERE SOME OF THE

CITY MONEY GOES.
There are few towns the size of
Roswell with more police officers. It
does seem that two night officers,
with all the deputy sheriffs and con
stables, are more than are necessary
for such an orderly town. OF course
these officers cost money, and tne
taxpayer foots the bill. Here are a
few figures:
Receipts from the night police in
the way of fines, etc, for the months
OF September, October, November and
December, $13. Cost of maintaining
the two night policemen, $3.50, or a
net loss to the city of $341. These
figures are taken from the official
records.
The Record is Informed that the
appointment of an extra night police
man has never been confirmed by
the city council.

The steamer declined the help of

she encountered violent gales. On

ers developed, and the captain decid-
