Governor for New Mexico.

Washington.-Chief Justice William
J. Mills of Las Vegas. n. NJ. was on
Wednesday appointed governor of
New Mexico to succeed George Curry,
resigned.
President Taft has personally
known Judge Mills for many years
and has high regard for him. 1t is
understood the President was strong
ly inclined toward Mills. being con
vinced that the governor should be a
lawyer of standing both in the terri.
tory and outside, and to his mind
Mills filled these requirements. There
is no politics in the appointment of
Mills and his selection Is not looked
upon with favor by either faction in
the territory. National Committeeman
Luna stood by Judge Mann, and Gov
ernor Curry and his friends wanted
Nathan Jaffa.
The tender OF the office to Justice
Mills was made today and he prompt
ly indicated his willingness to accept.
1t followed conference between
Postmaster General Hitchcock and
National Committeeman Solomon
Luna of New Mexico with the Presi-
dent and later with Secretary Ball
niger.
For upward of twenty years Justice
Mills has been a resident of the ter
ritory of New Mexico. so that his ap-
pontment is said to be in the strict
est sense a local one. The new gov
ernor's family came originally from
New Haven, Conn, and the new ap-
pointee is graduate of Yale Univer-
sity of the class OF ~.
Mr. Mills was appointed Chief JUS
tice of the territory in 1898 by Presi-
dent Mckinley, and has served con-
tinuously since that time.
President Taft has appointed Judge
w. II. Pope of Roswell to be chief JUS
tice to succeed Mills March 1st.

The great change in Dr. Cooks
