ty sheepman and leading politician,

first state ticket ever nominated by
the republicans of New Mexico. AT

continued well into the early hours
of this morning, Mr.. Bursum was
nominated for the high and honor
able office of governor.
Before the nomination for governor
occurred the convention adopted a
strong platform recommended by the
committee on resolutions. The reso-
lutions commended President Taft
for his assistance in securing state
hood for New Mexico and for his
veto of the measures for the piece
meal revision of the tariff at the last
session of congress. Governor Will
liam ]. Mills was commended for his
efficient administration, as was VIII

The party further pledged itself
to the mintenance of the protective
tariff on wool and the continuance
of good public schools as well as

system wherever possible. A clause
was included in the resolutions to
the effect that Legislation should be

ed by candidates during campaigns.

also recommended.

when the final decision of the cabinet

Throughout the earlier hours of the
day the papers had issued special edi-

was moving in plain sight of the
coast of Tripoli and intimating that
war might be declared at any mo-

The minister of foreign affairs, Sig.

Turkish reply from the Turkish am

claims in Tripoli but evaded a direct

Instead the Porte sent concilia-

It was known that at the same time
Turkey transmitted a note to the

SUGAR INQUIRY
GETS EXCITING
PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL SUGAR
REFINING COMPANY TEsTIFIES
BEFORE COMMITTEE.

WASHINGTON. June 21.-This
was field day in the house inquiry
into the American Sugar Refining
company and other refineries, two
committees devoting hours to in
terrogating witnesses as TO the for
nation and operations Of the big
corporations A number of new
facts were brought out bearing on
the sudden creation of wealth by
combinations of manufacturing con-
Germs and more was learned of the
frauds practiced on the government
in sugar weighing at the port of
New York.
AT the special sugar trust" in
vestigating committee had before it
James H. Post. president of the
National Sugar Refining company
of New Jersey, whose testimony
closed with spirited defense of
the corporation activities of the late
H. 0. Havemeyer, organizer of the
American company.
The house committee on eXpendi-
lures in the treasury department
questioned Oliver Splitter, former
dock superintendent of the company,
witha view to discovering the iden-
tity of the men higher up in the
preparation of the frauds.
Mr.. Post was subjected to long
and gruelling examination as to his
and Mr.. Havemeyers connection
with the formation of the National
company. Representative Madison,
of the committee, complained that
whenever the committee "had gotten
down to something" witnesses fire.
quently drew it off onto Have
meyer
His memory has been traduced
by men who would not have dared
to do so had he been alive said
Mr.. Post, his eyes flaming.
The defense was made after the
witness had told of the issuance
to Havemeyer through Post of the
$1O,000,O00 of the common stock
of the National Sugar Refining COM
pany without money consideration.
There are some things | cannot
explain" declared Mr.. Post; but
have such confidence in Mr.. Have
meyer that | know he would explain
everything if he were here"

WATER RIGHTS VS..
FANCY LITERATURE

In spite of his weakness for
automobiles at the expense of the
department, G. A Norcross, commits
sioner of industry, agriculture and
irrigation, seems to have a lucid
idea or two as to the sensible, log
ical and honorable way to proceed
in the matter of promoting irri-
cation and agriculture in the state.
His reply to the question whether
he believed in artistically illustrated
literature to attract colonists and
hcmeseekers is worth bordering.
both here and elsewhere
Certainly, and when the time is
ripe in this state to invite settlers
here, the public need not worry hut
what we will get it out, and the
right kind, too. Just now we are
not worrying about getting settlers
here We are busy trying to solve
the problem of how to prepare the
way for the colonization of the
state, so that when a settler does
come we can retain him instead of
Turing him here with a lot of gem
eralties about soil and climate and
with no specific opportunity, gem
orally speaking to which we can di-
rect him where, within his limited
means, he can acquire a foothold.
1T is all very well to know that
we have 20,O00,OO0 acres of fertile
soil but the practical end of the
matter is that without water the
land won't grow crops, and II cases
out of 100 of the intending settler
has neither the means nor the pa
thence to go out upon the desert and
attempt to conquer the double prob
lem of retaining the land and
providing from some unknown
source the water with which to ir-
rigate it.
The irrigation engineer and cap

Fountain, colored, employed by the
county as dog catcher, was shot
through the arm by C. B. ("Red")
Camp, a local man of all work and
said to be a victim of the drug

of worthless dogs. Bad blood has
existed for several days between
the two men and after the quarrel
Camp secured a rifle and dropped
Fountain on the main street of

BERMUDA ONIONS
GROW IN NEVADA

William F. Murphy of st. Thomas
has demonstrated that Bermuda on
ions can be profitably raised in
Nevada. Through the courtesy Of
Frank Clark he sent the Review
some choice samples recently from
an experimental crop grown on his
ST. Thomas ranch.
These onions are said to be pro
duced profitably in only few Sec
tons of the southwest and bring
fancy prices in the market.
In the Moapa valley they can be
matured in time to SOW the same
ground to cantaloupes, enabling the
grower to produce two high-priced
crops year from the same acre
age, both crops yielding prolifieally.
Such production will command nm
