Welcome to New Mexico.

People are coming to New Mexi-
CO in droves, for the moving season
is on. They are attracted here by
the natural richness of the new
state. the soil and the climate. Hun
dreds are leaving the older states
to come to the new one where great
er advantages are offered. All this
is good, as far as it goes but there
should be hundreds coming into the
state where one Is coming now.
Thousands of people are looking
toward New Mexico now and judg-
ing II by what they hear Of It. nine
tenths of their information is OBJ
tanned from the newspapers. reflect
ing the prosperity Of the towns and
cities In which they are published.
We should let the residents Of the
other states know that we are build.
ing good roads here In New Mexico.
We should let them know that they
may come here and grow up with
the state without having TO wait q

postoffice will go up one degree as
soon as the machinery of govern
ment can bring about the change.
This is because the receipts Of the
Office for the fiscal year just closed
have exceeded the eight thousand
mark. The gain for the past year
lacks only little of two thousand
dollars, two-thirds Of which has
been in the last six months.
When Judge Pennington took
hold of the Office in 1904, the re-
ceipts were only 1894, which he in
creased to $6254 in 1910. and now
for the year just closed, the second
class mark is reached, $4,000. with
$lO9 to spare. Looks like going
some, don't it?
With this advancement will come
an added prestige in the postofhce
department and increased improve
ments in the service, although the
service is now in excellent condi-
ton.
The raise to a higher class will be
very much appreciated by Post
master Pennington and his very
able assistant, II. d. Green, who
with the chief clerk. Miss Bess
Walker, will come under the civil
service.
The growth in other departments
of work have kept pace with the
sale of stamps, stamped paper, etc.
In the month of March. alone S3f
money orders were issued and the
registry business is not one whit be-
hind.
The GRAPHIC is pleased to extend
congratulations to both postoffict
and people.

Flight of Juror Likely to Cause
Mistrial of Hyde.

Kansas City, NO., Dec. ia mis-
trial of the second hearing of DR.. B.
Clark Hyde, charged with killing COL
Thomas H. Swope, appears probable
tonight.
| Made desperate by the sight of two
of his children, from whom he had
been separated for six weeks, in the
court room last Saturday, Harry Wal
dron, one of the jurors, escaped from
the jury's hotel quarters early today.
While Frank Jasper, Deputy
County Marshal, who was on guard,
slept, Waldron pried open a nailed
transom, crawled through the open
ing, tiptoed to a fire escape and
leaped fifteen feet to freedom. The
entire city police force and dozen
deputies from the County Marshal's
office have searched in vain for
him since his absence was noted near
daylight. If Waldron is not found by
tomorrow night the eleven remaining
jurors will be discharged, Judge
Porterfield said today. Or if the
missing man is found and he cannot
prove that he has not discussed the
case during his absence the same
action will be taken. Should he re-
turn in good health and swear that he
has not mentioned the trial to anyone,
and the court is satisfied with his
story, the trial will proceed.

Crop Report.

Missouri farmers have never made
failure. In state of such wonder
full and diversified resources there
have come no years of famine, but
many years of feasts. Plenty and
prosperity are assured as can never
be in one-crop state. Missouri, in
the center of the agricultural un-
iverse, yields generously of both corn
and cotton, and ranks high in more
than a dozen staple and minor crops.
Despite drouth and other unfavorable
conditions which might have proved
disastrous to other states less re-
sourceful and less able to come
back" Missouri has this year pro-
duced corn to the value of Sill, 4O6,-
III, wheat worth $28, 1872, 076, and
oats valued at 1882, 655, the total
value of these three crops-not the
three most valuable, either-being
$l43, 7OO,848.

Mrs. H. P. Robinson, of Rich
Hill, Dies Suddenly.

Mrs. H. P. Robinson, widow of the
late Judge Robinson, expired very
suddenly just after the supper hour
last evening, about 7:45, as the result
of a sudden stroke of paralysis.
Mrs. Robinson was aged ~ years
on Oct. 9Th last. She was born in
Massachusetts,, near North Hampton.
Her maiden name was jeanette
Spooner. She was married in her
native state to Allen Shaw at the age
of Is years, and was blessed by son
by this marriage. On Dec. II, 1879,
she became bride a second time, as
the wife of H. P. Robinson, who pre-
ceeded her to the grave only a short
time ago. She also bore him son,
viz: H. P. Robinson, Jr. Both these
survive her, also a brother in Texas
and sister in Massachusetts,.
Mrs. Robinson was a quiet, unos-
tentatious woman-a dutiful wife and
mother, kindly in her intercourse
with neighbors and friends and be-
loved most by those who knew her
best. Review.

which is in doubt at this time.

Oats-A revision of acreage, due to
readiustment with late census figures,
shows 1,l43, 753 acres seeded to
oats, in spring Of 1911, but of this
only 529, 1888 acres, or 46 per cent,
was cut and threshed. The estimated
average yield for this acreage was
1873 bushels. Of the 81 per cent of
the oat crop that was too poor or
short to cut with binder, part was
cut for hay and the remainder pas
tured. The total yield of that part of
the crop harvested in the usual way
is estimated at 9,195, 238 bushels,
worth at the average farm price Of AZ
cents per bushel, 50, 1862, 655.
On Saturday, December 16, at IL
o'clock noon, report will be issued
giving value of all other Missouri
farm crops, including hay usually
rated as the states second most valu-
able crop.
