Felix Lester congratulated the citi-
zens of the valley on the fine show
ing they are making. and remarked
that the progress of the Pecos valley
would help the whole territory to
gain statehood.
Prof. Parker paIa nigh tribute to
the New Mexico Military Institute
and also praised the beauty of the
ladies he lac seen in the valley.
Mr.. Stern recited some poetry, he
had written on the spot; and DR.. G.
E. LlIkens, an old Roswellite, not to
be outdone too much even by Cover
nor Curry who had been called the
father of the territory, said hat he
was at least the foster father of many
homeless orphans that r being car

President Kellahin, in announcing
al intermission, stated that the
meeting of Roswell and Albuquerque
business men in a social way would
result in more good han can be
known in the future. He said hat
Roswell speakers would be heard in
a few minutes; but the gathering be-
gan to dispense quite rapidly and
500 the rooms were practically emp
ty, so that there was no more "hot
air" The Albuquerque people having
been up all the night before were
getting sleepy, and many of them
thought Kellahin was Joking.
By the way, the man with a steam
calliope voice, who led the hurrahing
at various times was R. G. Balcomb,
an architect, a1d a Californian-not
a Missourian as rumored. His one ac-
complishment, he said, was yelling.
and he kept out of sight so that he
might not be called on for a speech.

BIG JoLLIFICATION
AND SPEEcHMAkING.

The unio1 of Roswell and Albu-
querque by the ties of the Belen cut
off, was celebrated last night at the
rooms of the Roswell Commercial
Club with feasting, music and ora
tory. Our local man will describe the
details of the wedding trip-ours be
it only to deal with the "hot all"
showered upon the happy bride and
groom after the ceremony.
Judge Richardson made the ad-
dress of welcome, IN in imagination
built an auto road across the noun
tains, whereby social calls may some
day be made in less than twelve
hours-and eventually a railroad
even more direct than the Belen cut
off will deliver freight between the
two towns in the same time. Mr..
Richardson complimented the Albu-
querque business men on their enter
prise, and declared they had far sur
passed Denve in the magnitude of
the trade exclusion sen to the Pecos
Valley. Much depends, he said, upon
liz III VI
and the enterprise of their people as
to what the whole Territory may be-
come in the next ten years. He was
willing to put Albuquerque in front
and Roswell would gladly follow so
long as the other city showed herself
mentioned all the towns of the Pecos
Valley, and referred to Artesia as
the best town of its age in the Terri
tory of New Mexico. He aid there
were no keys to the city of Roswell.
n without undue formality or speech
making he wished to assure the Wis
itors that everything was wide open
to them and invited them to make
themselves at home.
Hon. H. B. Ferguson, of Albuquer-
que, responded to the address of wei
come. He said the business men of
Albuquerque had been astonished be-
yond expression with what they had
seen. They had known in a general
way what was going on in Eastern
New Mexico-but after coming to see
tS VI
Sheba, they were convinced that 1.-THE
half has never been told" Lack of
space forbids making extended ex-
tracts from the speech of MI. Fergus
N, or any of the others. The best
point, perhaps, in Mr.. Fergusson's
talk was urging cooperation of the
commercial clubs and business men
of the two towns tt secure freight
rates which will enable us to trade
with each other. This valley produces
enough agricultural crops and fruits
to supply all the mining and lumber
and the valley needs the lumber, coal
and other products of the territory.
Both sections of the territory now
send thousands of dollars away from
home to buy necessarieS which home
people stand ready to supply as soon
as reasonable freight rates can be
ecure within the territory. "Wha
you have to SELL" said Mr.. Ferguson, |
eve need and want to buy; what you
need to buy we have to sell, and we
are out looking for trade. The Com
mercial Club of the chief city of the |
central part of the territory should |
unite with the Commercial Club OF
the Queen City of the Pecos Valley |
to get a freight rate over the new
cutoff that will enable us to trade
together" He gave the railroads due
credit for leading the way in the de
velopment of the great Southwest but
thought it was time for the railroads
to recognize their obligation to the
