Hon. Antonio Lucero, Secretary

Hon. Antonio Lucero, Secretary
of State and Hon. E. E. Veeder,
prominent attorney Of Las Vegas
and leading candidate for Cover
nor on the Democratic .tickit
his fall, were in Roy Tuesday all
day and met their old friend S
also acquired many new ones
while here. They were enroute
to Mosquero where they were to
speak at the Red Cross Rally. Mr..
Veeder seems more and more like
a Governor the more you get
acquainted with him and he took
the place Of Gov. Lindsey on the
as gracefully as if to
the manor born.

Mosquero Day

The Red Cross day at Mosque
70 Wednesday drew a good crowd
and entertained it all day. The
speeches were specially good.
We are assured that Antonio
Lucero gave the best speech Of
his life on this occasion, and
Mr.. Veeder was a close second.
The Sale, presided over by
Casey White, assisted by Col.
Will Paxton, disposed of many
donated articles and resulted in
the addition of a very tidy sum to
the finances of the Branch of the
Red Cross, although, owing TO
extreme drought in that section
peopele were not able to buy as
they would otherwise have done.
The stopping of all credit at the
stores, makes any prudent per-
son stop and think befor giving
mp a dollar for anything but the
necessities Of life.
The Red Cross Ladies had
transformed the large and airy
school rooms into commodious
and pleasant dining and refresh
ment rooms and dispensed splend
id dinner and daintles to the
crowd during the day and in the
evening
Many Mills people were present
and as many from Roy and il
was especially noted as a social
event.
The dance at night drew an
immense crowd and resulted in
la large financial gains. The
amount of the days earnings
could not be figured up in time
to report it but it made the day
well worth while.
We congratulate Mosquero on
the snccess of her big day in
spite of all the obstacles she had
to overcome.

Rain!

Rain in many places where
there has been none before this
season has helped the pastures
and crop prospects in places but
there are stlll many farmers on
the mesa who are dry. Roy had
a little rain last week but not
enought to do any good. AS
much as two inches of rain is
reported in places and hail from
a little to three inches in depth
on the level. The JIM. Wood
ward farm seems to have had
the heaviest hail and his crops
seemed ruined by it others suf-
fered little damage. ]. M.
Elder of Liberty had the rubber
old roof of his barn rlhned and
the windows broken in his
house and many others report
damages. In some localities it
will be possible to raise some
fodddr crops yet where their
chances were all gone for beans
or grain.

ter in the New Mexico Federal

a political mission when he met
his death.
He was a political leader of re-
cognized ability and fought the
fight against gang-rule in his
county and state since we have
known him, fearlessIy and effect
lively. 1t will every be a source
of regret to us that he met his
deplorable end in Roy when
here in the discharge of duty
1t is authenticity reported that
he complained Of being very i'll
the evening before and cancelled
his arrangement to meet a num-
ber of party associates on tina t
account. Many friends did not
even know he was in town until
after the fire.
Following the recent fire an IN
vestigation has been made by
Distsict Attorney Chester Hunk

for the purpose, A warrant was
issued for the arrest of Mrs. Alice

( A ride out to the hail belt of
last week taught US that it was
but a narrow streak. There is
much water in the sink at the
west end sof Kansas lake but
none in the bottom on the lake
proper. Hail beat down even the
big russian thistles in some plac-
es and the rain was evidently
torrential at the east end of the
lake and at Dick Boulwares.
Three miles this side at Nels
Bensons, there has been hardly
any rain and it is dry on to town.
1t is remarkable to note the
contrast Of prairie and fields
where the rain was and where it
wasn't.
