A bit Of political gossip touch
ing New Mexico has come from the
Pacific coast in an article in the
brooklyn Eagle written by one of
the excursionists who made the
western trip last May. The article
spoke of the delights of the west
and the enjoyment that the tour
lists had in visiting Santa Fe and
seeing the Indians in their native
haunts at Tesuque and gave praise
to Governor Larrazolo for his hos
pitality and the talks he made to
the guests from the east. Then
came this bit of politics. The cor
respondent said that if Governor
Larrazolo was not chosen to sue
coed himself as governor of New
Mexico the plan was to send him
to Mexico as American ambassador
of the United States, as he was
peculiarly fitted for that position,
having been born in Mexico and
had made a study of I conditions
since being a resident of this
country. Thus we sometimes get
the local suggestions from far
away instead of at home.
