LINCOLN COUNTY AIDS

Santa Fe, oct. 16.-The board Of
Lincoln county commissioners has
voted a preliminary appropriation Df
$500 in aid of the New Mexico exhibit
at the San Diego exposition, SO that
the governors county might have ade-
quate representation among the en-
terprising and public spirited counties
that have set aside sums for their
special exploitation of resources. Only
the more non-progressive and back
ward counties will fail to make such
an appropriation, for all wide awake
citizens recognize that it is now or
never as to attracting capital and en-
terprise into the state. The New
Mexico exhibit at st. Louis brought
hundred thousand settlers into east
ern New Mexico and millions Of dol
lars of new capital, and the exhibit
at San Diego will do as much more
if New Mexico and each of Its coun-
ties live up to their opportunity.
