Ward came e spelling il all by
starting out to ride from Roswell
TO Los Cruces, on a bicycle, which
he did, being the first and perhaps
the last to do It. but even that has
been wiped out by time, and his
career has been closely watched.
In his time he has been with a
number OF the worth while terri
torial papers and not so worth
while. He preceded the clever
Hening on the Albuquerque Jour.
nal and was the only really capable
editor OF the Las Vegas Optic
since the war. Writing incessant.
