LIND OF
PROSPERITY
And HAPP|NESS
Ex Governor Prince, IL Seer,
whose Prophecies are
Being Verified

H. B. Hening, secretary of the
New Mexico Bureau Of Immigra
tion, is in receipt of a folder is
sued by the Santa Fe railroad in
1891. just 20 years ago The
folder comprises two addresses
delivered by Hon. L. Bradford
Prince, at that time governor of
New Mexico. 1t is printed in
the most approved typographical
form Of those days, but makes a
very poor comparison with the
average commercial circular of
today.
The booklet deals in glowing
terms of the resources and pos
sibilities of the empire "of i'm
perial dimensions" whose area
is almost "precisely that Of En-
gland, Scotland and Ireland COM
bined." The addresses were de-
livered at the annual territorial
fair in this city in September,
1890, and in 1891, and deal with
The Present and future Of New
Mexico" "A land of Prosperity
and Happiness" respectively.
Wood cut Illustrations of an In
dian Pueblo, the Montezuma Ho-
tel, a view in the Glorieta noun
tains, and a picture of two burros
accompany the text. One hun
dred thousand copies of the fol-
der were distributed.
Many of the prophecies Of Gov
ernor Prince for the future de-
velopment of New Mexico have
been fulfilled and in many in
stances the results achieved have
surpassed the most sanguine ex-
pectations Of 20 years ago. So
vast is the extent of the terri
tory, said Governor Prince, that
among all the crowd assembled
here (New Mexico fair, Albu-
querque, 189O) perhaps not five
persons have been in all of our Is
counties. Albuquerque Herald

The Department regulations
governing sales of isolated tracts
contemplate that the sale be
actually opened and held for the
term Of one hour, to enable COM
petitive bidders to make bids.
Mere offering of the land and
then the dismissal of the bidders
to assemble shortly thereafter is
an adjournment of the sale. An
offer of a check by the purchaser
does not comply with the regula-
tions requiring cash. However,
a reasonable time should be given
to allow purchaser to cash check
and tender the money.

The recent rains have made
mud holes of ouF streets,
which proves only too for chilly
that something should be done to
prevent such an occurrence in the
future. Were we in Arkansas,
we might use the old story, that
when it rains we can't fix the
streets and when it doesn't they
don't need fixing. But that does
not go in the Estancia Valley.
AS an incorporated village We
have the use of the road tax OF
three dollars from each citizen
of the village. which can be used
on our streets, if we get busy
and collect it. Why should we
not do it? Let the council ap-
point a street commissioner, who
has the time and knows how to
build good streets, and give him
the aU thority to get busy. We
are assured that this can be
legally done. The sum derived
from this source of three dollars
from each citizen in the village
will go a long way toward put
ting our streets in excellent con-
dition.

RECORD IS
CERTAINLY
GOOD ONE
Governors Report will Snow
Development in Territory
is Substantial

Santa Fe, N NJ July l2
Governor William J Mills has
called upon the various depart
ments O, New Mexico for
their annual reports to be in
|cluded in the report of the
governor to the secretary of
the interior.
The report as usual will con
tain a record of homestead en-
tries, a record of irrigation and
dry land development, the pro
lgress of the various districts,
mining development, live
stock, etc. 1t is expected that
the record this year will show
the umber of homestead en-
tries to be somewhat less than
during the last four or five
years. This is due to the
fact that the land close to the
railroad during the last few
years has been taken up quite
rapidly.
The record will probably show
this year, according to, early re-
ports, a greater development
than in any previous year. Also
a larger immigration of actual
buyers Of land, in irrigated dis
tricts. A very considerable or
chard development will be re-
corded.
The governors report is one of
the most valuable immigration
documents that New Mexico has.
The Bureau of immigration used
several thousand copies of the
last annual report. 1t contains
not only much interesting ma
terial upon the public affairs of
the territory, but it gives a COM
pact, authoritative conservative
statement of the conditions, re-
sources and advantages of New
Mexico and there is a constant
demand for it on the part Of the
most thoughtful investigators.

Red-Blooded American Heroes

A large part of what is now
Texas was at one time possessed
by Mexico, and the Texan war for
independence, which broke out in
1886, was the forerunner of our
own war with Mexico in 1916.
Early in the year 1886, when
Santa Ana with his Mexican
army of 400 was sweeping across
the country, all the Texans with
lin reach fled to the Alamo, an
ancient mission church, and con-
verified it into fort, preparing to
resist the besiegers to the death.
In this party there were some
$50 persons, men, women and
children, of whom about 140 were
|armed men.
The siege began on Feb. %.
There were number of prelim-
mary attacks. during which almost
every Mexican who ventured with
in gun reach of the fort dropped
in his tracks.
On March 6, when those who
held the fort were on the point of
starvation, Santa Ana made an

A small party of Mexicans ap-
preached under a white alag. They
offered honorable treatment if the
Americans would, unarmed, sur
render. About 25 gave them

But did Santa Ana spare them ?
No! The watchers inside the

Mexicans were hammering at the

The doors crashed inward.

Mexicans as they charged upon

left into the black, treacherous
hearts of the Greasers.
The outnumbered and weakened
prisoners could resist no longer.
The blood-stained swords of the
Mexicans plunged into their now
unresisting bodies. When the ter
rible work was done the shouts of
the Greasers, blended with the
groans of the dying, echoed
throughout the fort.
Santa Ana piled the bodies high
in a heap. There were more than
a hundred, still warm and moist
with their own blood.
The torch was applied, and all
that remained of the brave, heroic
pioneers gradually crumpled into
ashes.
