With the rap of the heavy gavel in |
the hands of H. o. Bursum, chairman
of the New Mexico republican central
committee, the first state convention
held since this vast territory became
a state was called to order this morn
ing.
For three reasons the convention
was remarkable gathering. First,
it was the largest convention In point |
of attendance ever held in New Mexi-
CO: second, it was the most enthusi-
astic convention ever held in New
Mexico; third, it was entirely a har-
monious gathering. The fourth rea-
son, which is really the most import
ant of all, was the fact that the con-
vention was the first gathering OF its
kind eve held in New Mexico.
It's delegates and officers were filled
with enthusiasm and anticipation for
better things for New Mexico under
statehood. The tenor of the speeches
made during the morning was along
the line of gratitude that statehood
was so close at hand.
In opening the convention Mr.. Bur
sum made a strong address. His re-
marks were in the interest of uni
ted republicanism which, he said,
would sweep everything before it At
the polls
A motion was made by Secundino
Romero that Governor Mills, all for
mer governors of New Mexico, the
members of the supreme court, Dele
gate Andrews and all the former
delegates in congress present in the
audience, be invited to sit on the
platform The motion was later
amended by George W. Armijo OF
Santa Fe to include Secretary Ma
than Jaffa and was carried by unan-
imous vote amidst hearty cheers from
the delegates and the vast audience
assembled in the beautifully decor
ated hall A committee consisting
OF A. A. Sedillo Of Bernalillo. Solo
mon Luna of Valencia and Charles
Springer of Colfax was appointed to
escort the distinguished gentlemen to
the platform, and Governor Mills, for
mer Governor George Curry, former
Governor L. Bradford Prince, Jus
tices Parker, Mecham, Roberts and

Reviewing a performance given at the
Colonial Theatre in Cambridge, Mass, by
the Morgan Musical Comedy Company,
the big attraction which will be seen at
the Gondran Theatre in this city Tuesday,
May 2, the Cambridge Daily News takes
occasion TO comment as follows on the
work Of two Of the principals of the or
ganization, Miss Eunice Drake, the we'll
known southern prima donna. and Chas.
Morgan, the noted comedian:
Z Z. Miss Drake is charming in the charac-
ter of the .Heiress, and having been pri-
madonna Of the famous Bostonians and
other companies, naturally performs her
role in a faultless maLner. Her splen-
did rendition OF The Garden Of Roses
and the Riding Sang. from the comic
opera Rob Roy, are features OF the play.
Mr.. Morgan, who has also been lead.
ing comedian for several large preduc-
tions has provided himself with physi-
cal undertaking to produce both charac-
ters Of the .Lord5 and the Butler. He
plays these extremes against each other,
making five quick changes Of costume,
and displaying great versatility as a dual
role actor. With the able assistance OF
his partner he evokes roars of laughter,
particularly ID the acrobatic juggling of
the Lords luncheon, which really is in it.
self a feat.
The plot suits the taste Of most any
audience, and the whole show is worthy Of
the price Of admission
"A Royal Counter Jumper" is said to be
not Of the stereotyped and hackneyed or
der, but an entirelg original and refresh
ing musical comedy whose every scene
contains a triple extract of double-dis-
titled laughter. According to the press
agent, the company presenting the at
traction is exceptionally competent and
Nelt-balaTleati, while the costumes and
scenic accessories are entirely adequate
In every respect.

Williams. president of the company, leav-
ing New Orleans at 8 o'clock d. m. Mon
day
The new mills of the Ascension Red Cy-
press Company are the largest and most
5up-to-date cypress sawmills in the south.
They are equipped with two large band
saws and their daylight capacity is 125,-
600 feet The cost of the plant was about
$250.000 and it is in the center of cy-
press swamp which will provide timber
for at least ten years if the maximum
daylight cut is made. In addition there
is standard gauge railroad, with it's
equipment of engines and logging cars
This has about two and one-half miles of
track, Including the switches and yard
tracks. Two of the heaviest skidders to
be found in the country have been in
stalled at the plant.

of the mills, was in charge Of the ar
rangements for the opening, and Mrs.

a canebrake and covers about a square
mile of high, dry land. AS the lands are
cleared it is the intention of the company
to plant oranges, since the soil is fine for
the fruit and the trees protect them from

SITUATION GRAVE.

LONDON. Oct. 30.-The startling
intelligence that the city of Tripolt has
been recaptured by an army OF Turk
ish and Arab soldiers was received
here today in letters from Rome which
escaped censorship through having
been sent by post. These letters do
not state the fate Of the $4,000 Italian
soldiers of the expeditionary army
which occupied the city. The foreign
office and Italian embassy here have
no confirmation Of these reports.
Earlier letters had stated that the
situation of the Italian army In Tripo-
II was desperate and that Only the rig
id censorship maintained by the mill
tary authorities in Northern Africa
and the government at Rome have pre-
vented the outside world from learn.
ing the true condition. "
They stated that the native hordes
outside the city were being daily
strengthened and that nightly attacks
were draining the strength of the army
of occupation.

GWEN TO REBELS,

PEKIN, Oct. 3O.-Victory has crown.
ed the revolutionary movement in
China and by imperial decree prepar-
ed today, the demands of the young
China movement, as voiced by the ma
tional assembly are met by the ruling
Manchu dynasty. Whether cooler
counsels among the insurrectionary
leaders will prevail and the anti Man
chu movement will halt with the gov.
ernment's concessions, or whether the
erradical element will prevail and the
rebel army of $1,000 will sweep over
the North, investing the capital is a
grave question which only the future
can solve.
Complete capitulation to the revolu-
tionary party, according to the pre-
sent program, means reorganization
of the Chinese government into con-
stitutional monarchy with the imme-
diate formation Of a national parlia-
ment. The red, white and blue banner
of the young China party will fly over
the army and navy.
Yuan Shi Kai is at present master
of the destiny of the Manchu dynasty.
He combined strength with strategy
and apparently has the confidence OF
both the Manchu and revolutionary
parties.
