CONSERVATIVE POPULATION
ESTIMATE.

The schooI census returns for 1903
are encouraging in that they show a
growth in the population since last
year of about 5000 persons between
the ages of five and twenty years, or
altogether $4,000 to 10000 people, but
are disappointing in that they do not
bear out the estimates OF 400 900 pop
ulation for the Territory. The census
includes all persons between the ages
Of five and twenty years or over Is
years The average g of the total
population Is hardly fortyfive, but
granting that 1t is, then II would fol-
low that the school census figures
multiplied by three would give an APP
proximate population estimate. Ac-
cording TO that. New Mexico with q
school population of 100, 900 has a
few over 100000 inhabitants to which
25. 900 might be added for Indians and

Territory of 325 1000. According to this
conservative estimate, the population
by counties, as far as these have re-
ported, would range as follows:

Triumph.


Triumph.
Henry Clay as a young man was ex-
tremely bashfuI. although he possessed
uncommon brightness Of intellect and
fascinating address. without effort
making the little he knew pass for
much more. In b early part Of his
career he settled In Lexington, Va.
where he found the society most con-
genial. though the clients seemed
somewhat recalcitrant to the young
lawyer. He joined a debating society
at length. but for evera meetings he
remained a silent listener.
One evening after a lengthy debate
the subject was being put to a vote
when Clay was heard to observe soft
~ to a friend that the matter In ques-
ton was by no e exhausted. He
was at once asked to speak and after
some hesitation rose to his feet Find

fronted by an audience, he was v

had frequently done. in imaginary APP

barrassment. and the obnoxious phrase
fell from his lips again. Then he gath
cred himself together and launched
into a peroration SO brilliantly lucid
and impassioned that IL carried the
house by storm and laid the corner
stone to his future greatness. his first

As the days go by It is becoming
more and more evident that The re-
form spas1n of the Albuquerque Jour

dictated by business or personal reas-

the Republican ticket. no matter what
kind of a ticket IL may be.

One of the arguments hat has been
