Delegate Lick EN- in she Sen
ate, under date i July 10th last,
wrdtU a letter to the editor OF the
San Marcial Standard, which is
a dead give away Of his intentions
toward statehood. The letter
deals with a bill for a proposed
bridge across the Rio Grande at
San Marcial, which he introduced
in the house.
Nothing, he writes, can be
done with this bill until next win
ter, and at that time | will GER
tainly do all | can to have it
passed. .
While the territory is expecting,
hoping and praying for imme-
diato statehood, which would end
Mr.. Andrews career in congress
with this session, he calmly TALKS
about what he will do next
winter, This indicates very
clearly what his true hopes, ex-
pectations and prayers are.
1t shows that as late as July 20
long after the introduction in the
senate of the Nelson amendment,
which is the same as Andrews
own resolution, Andrews had no
idea that it would pass and be-
come a law, This San Marcial
letter proves that Andrews did
not even want the Nelson amend
ment to pass and that he supports
it only in the hopes Of beating
statehood at this session, other
wise now could he talk of being
in congress next winter Sierra

A deal was closed yesterday
whereby Sam Jenson secures
twenty acres of the old Lundy
farm, north of town. He has
already contracted for we'll one
hundred and seventy-five feet
deep and will install good
pump and engine, so he can
irrigate the whole tract. Sam
has a long head on him, and if
that twenty acres doesn't keep
him out of mischief, we'll loose
our guess, He is certainly on
the right track. With twenty
acres of irrigated land in the Es-
tancia valley, a farmer will have
all he can do, and then some,
and will grow immense crops
every year. The sooner our peo-
pie will come to see this in its
right light the sooner will the
valley be a success as farming
country.

most important actions was the
organization of a New Mexico
section of the international Dry
Farming Congress, which this
year meets close to our doors, in
Colorado Springs, Colo, the

in October. This organization
was effected by practical dry
farmers coming chiefly from the

the New Mexico Agricultural
college, and himself a thorough
student of dry farming methods
and results, was elected presi-
dent; Mr.. Earl Scott, q we'll
known Eanker and owner Of dry

tary and treasurer. The execu-
tive board includes such we'll

Fe railroad; John Corbett, prac-
cal farmer and land owner Of
Mountainair; D. T. Hoskins, al
prominent banker Of East Las

dry farmer, and others in the
various counties in the same |
class. The organization starts
with q good membership, and it's
immediate purpose is to enlist
the support and cooperation and
secure the membership of every

one listening on the telephone
line when the physician was
called. The names being similar
