VOL. 24 SOCORRO. NEW MEXICO. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 1. 1906 NO. 32ANNUAL BAR ASSOCIATION

Meeting, at Cloudcroft a Succe&s

in Each and EveryFeature.

ATTENDANCE WAS VERY LARGE

tion Present.

Following is a partial sketchof the annual meeting of theNew Mexico Bar associationwhich closed its session at Cloud-croft last Thursday, and whichproved to be one of the best at-tended meetings held by the as-

sociation for years. Santa Fe,with an attendance of almostthirty out of a total of seventy-fiv- e,

contributed materially tothe success of the gathering: .

BUSINESS SKSSION.

The association was called toorder on Wednesday forenoon,August 21, by the president, W.A. Hawkins, who with SecretaryK. II. Hanna had made the ar-rangement's for the meeting withmuch forethought.

After the reading and approvalof the minutes the president ap-pointed A. B. McMillan and L.B. Prince to fill two temporaryvacancies on the committee onadmission. The secretary's an-

nual report brought out the en-couraging fact that within thepast two years the associationhas increased its active member-ship by sixty per cent.

EULOGY BY PKINCK.

or L. BradfordPrince of the committee on reso-- I

lutions upon the death of thelate Judge Tuley, of Chicago, atone time attorney general ofNew Mexico, delivered an elo-quent eulogy of the judge whoat the beginning ot his career inSanta Fe in 1847 managed to ekeout an existence with an averageincome of $1 a week until ap-pointed attorney general of theTerritory. Appropriate resolu-tions were offered and orderedengrossed and a copy sent toMrs. Tuley, who shared withJudge Tuly his early privationsand successes in Santa Fe. Theaddress was of great historicaland biographical interest andwill be printed in the proceedings.ANNUAL ADDKHSS OK PKKSIDKNT.

President Hawkins followedwith his annual address in whichhe discussed vital features of thestatehood question expressing abelief that if the legislature call-ed a constitutional convention toconsist of the delegates electedfor New Mexico at the Novemberelection and this conventionadopted a constitution which wasratified by the people, that thesubmission of this constitutionto congress with a demand forstatehood would logically resultin the admission of this Terri-tory under its present name andwithin its present boundaries.Mr. Hawkins in his paper, amongother things cited many historic-al precedents of constitutionalconventions held without beingfirst authorized by Congress,notably the examples of Tenne-ssee, Arkansas and Florida.He compared the treaties andtheir statehood promises whichresulted in the ácqusition of thenorthwest territory and Louisiana territory and the admissionof the states framed from them,with the treaty of GuadalupeHidalgo, pointing out their simi-larity of phraseology.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

The afternoon session was de-

voted to the delivery of strongaddresses, which were mainlyconcerned with the statehoodquestion. Hon. T. B. Catron ofSanta Fe being prominent amongthe speakers, a partial outline ofhis address is as follows:

Mr. Catron in speaking of theracial peculiarities of the nativepeople of New Mexico said thatthey are not so much of Spanishor Indian blood as they are ofMoorish descent. He said thatthey are not only close kin ofthe Syrian but are identical withthe Arabians and that their re-lationship to the fair-haire- d blueeyed natives of northern Spainis very remote. He then out-lined the expeditions ot the whiteman into what is now New Mex- -

ico and the history of the province under Spanish rule. In conelusion, he made, a powerful argument against the proposedmerger of New Mexico and Arizona and declared that it wouldbe a grievous mistake indeed forNew Mexico to stultify itself bvvoting for the proposed jointure,arguing that a favorable votewould destroy whatever chancesNew Mexico has for statehood.

Thursdays session was takenup with election of officers forthe ensuing year, and the election of delegates to the American Bar Association conventionat St. Paul, Minnesota, and other important business.

1 he association adjourned tomeet in Santa Fe in Januarynext year. Steps were taken atthe meeting to establish closerrelations with the Bar of Eli'aso or to oring about a unionof the New Mexico and the KlFaso Bar Association, by the appointment of a committee, J. (J.Fitch of Socorro and K. A. Mannof Alamogordo to meet a similarcommittee of the K Paso asso-ciation.

HOW A CIRCUS HELPS BUSI-NESS WITH LOCAL STORES.

It Take Vaat Amount of Meat toFaad the Animals Biff Money

Loft in Town.That it docs local merchants

some good to have a big circuslike the Sells-Flot- o Shows tocome to town is amply evidencedby the large contracts made bylocal dealers. It takes money torun a great show, and it takes avast amount of material to feedthe employes and animals.

Circus people live well, andonly the best of everything isused in the commissary depart-ment. That a big show leavesa liberal lump of money in a cityat times is evident from the con-

tracts made here. To a localfirm the mammoth order of 1,000pounds of coffee was given,from an equally well known gro-cery house $200 worth of grocer-ies was contracted. One hun-dred and fifty pairs of shoes willbe added to the commissarywagon, three carcasses of beefcame from a local butcher atwell as 800 pounds of animalmeat. Several hundred loavesof bread feed the hungry mawsof the circus people daily, andthese, too, come from local bakers. Seventy-tiv- e quarts of milkfrom the dairies. Eight tons ofhay, one hundred and fifteenbushels of oats, two tons of strawand a host of other necessarieswere purchased in the city. Alltold nearly $1,500 will be lefthere as a result of the advent ofthe Sells-Kiot- o Shows. One ofthe busiest men in connectionwith the show is Peter J. Kink,the only registered steward inthe circus business, .who hascharge of the feeding of the mul-

titude as well as the purchasingfor the hundreds of hungrymouths.

The date for the big shows,and it should be carefully noted,as this is the only big one com-

ing this year, to Socorro Satur-day, September IS.

Fain from a Burn Promptly Reliev-ed by Chamberlain's Pain Balm.A little child of Michael

Strauss, of Vernon, Conn., wasrecently in great pain from aburn on the hand, and as cold applications only increased the inflammation, Mr. Strauss came toMr. James N. Nichols, a localmerchant, for something to stopthe pain. Mr. Nichols says: "Iadvised him to use Cham-berlain's Pain Balm, and the firstapplication drew out the inflam-mation and gave immediate re-

lief. I have used this linimentmyself and recommend it veryoften for cuts, burns, strainsand lame back, and have neverknown it to disappoint." Korsale by all druggists.

John C. Fremont, the first Republican candidate for the presidency, is buried in the Rocklandcemetery, on the brink of thePalisades overlooking the Hudson river, opposite Tarrytown,New York. The grave is marked only by a small iron star ofthe Grand Army of the Republic,although near it stands thecrumbling base of a monumentwhich his admirers planned toerect some years ago. A committee of those who voted forhim in lHSii is now arranging toput up u suitable memorial. Itis always desirable that thegraves of the nation's eminentmen should le kept green.

your parents till the end withtender and respectful affection;decorate with flowers the roadleading to the grave. Diffusethe constancy of your love upontheir souls; diffuse the perfumeof faith and of immortality, andthe love which you maintain in-

violate for your relations will beto you a pledge of that whichwill be returned to you by yourown children. Relatives, sistersand brothers, wife and children,let them be to you as branchesspringing in different order fromthe same stem. Sanctify thefamily in the unity of love; makeof it a temple from which youcan sacrifice to your native land.

I do not know if you will behappy, but I know that, if youdo so in the midst of possible adversity, there will rise for you asense of serene peace, the reposeof a tranquil conscience, whichwill give you strength in all ad-

versities and which will showyou a silver lining to every cloud.

of these dollars into subsid-iary coins, but it failed to pass.

Th Devils' Regent.Once upon a time the devil

called together the meanest menin hell in order that he mightselect one to take his place whilehe took a short vacation. Thecontest finally narrowed downto three men and his majestytold each to repeat the meanestthing he had done while on earthin order that he might choosethe one most entitled to the jobof running hell, says an exchange. The first one told ofbeing at one time lost in astrange country and that afterhe had wandered around formany days and was faint andsick for want of nourishment, agood old man and his wife foundhim and took him home withthem. They fed him and cher-ished him, brought him back tohealth and strength, gave himclothes and money and startedhim on his way. That night hecame back, tied the old peopleup and tortured them with hotirons till they told him wheretheir money was. This he tookand then set fire to the houseand escaped.

The second man then statedthat he had taken his local paperfor several years without payingfor it and finally put it back inthe box marked "refused."

"You are the man I want,"said the devil, it is useless tolook further. Take my horns,tail, hoots and spear. You arehereby created devil-rege- nt forever." And to this day, when.'ever there is an especially disreputable deed to be done, thedevil is said to turn it over tohis shameless deputy.

Hawley?"A story. I'm going in for

AMERICAN FARMERS TROUBLES

America, aa Well as Other Countries,Haa Troubles of Her Own.

America has its agrariantroubles no less than Kussia.The problem in Kussia is to givethe farming people enough landto support them. In Americathe problem is happier, but stillperplexing, to find people to takecare of what the land is producing. The usual call of Kansasfor farm-han- ds this year is saidto have been "unusual." The

heat-field- s offered two dollars aday, which ought to have beensufficient for the malcontentswho complain that millions ofAmericans cannot tin-- , healthfuland profitable occupation.

There are stories of cariagesand automobiles having waitedat the railroad-statio- n for anystranger who was wiling to work;and to tempt him further therewas the promise of good foodwith fried chicken and icecream on Sunday. 1 he excusefor the idle tramp and despairingunemployed in this country iscertainly not to be found in econ-

omic conditions. Kven in crowd-ed New England, which is notrich in outdoor products, sometowns have been offering in vaintwo dollars and two dollars and

half a day for men to help inthe work of spraying trees.

Mcintosh Helps Out Santa Fa BallTeam

William Mcintosh, of Albuquerque and Kstancia, appearedin the role of angel at the baseball game in Santa Fe Sunday afternoon when the Alamosa, Col

Santa Fe won the game by thescore of 1H to ) and is thus as-

sured as an entry in the baseball contest.

IMMENSE BUSINESSAT LAND OITICE

One Hundred and Twenty-nin- e Fil-ing's for First Twenty Days in

August.August bids fair to lie the ban-

ner month of the year in thematter of homestead entries atthe land office located at SantaFe. One hundred and twenty-nin- e

tilings have been made forthe first twenty days of thismonth, and another large dele-gation of land-seeke- rs arrived atSanta Fe last Wednesday even-ing en route to the Kstancia val-

ley. Public lands in that sectionare being taken up rapidly byactual settlers. Eighty-tw- o ofthe homestead entries recordedso far this month are credited toTorrance county. These aremostly in the Estancia valley.San Miguel county is second onthe list with twenty entries forthe corresponding period.

The total number of home-stead entries since January 1 is1.20S; acres entered, 171,711.Total number of final homesteadentries, 114; acres entered, 17,- -

to. l lie total number ol en-

tries of all kinds since January1, rxid, is l,42o; acres entered,207.7S5.

The humorous side of OldHume Week and its good cheerand happy reunions are frequent-ly noted. The pathetic sidecomes less often to the light.A writer in the Independent re-

lates two incidents which are sotrue to human nature that theywill bear repeating. "I amgoing," wrote one woman, "butcan you guess what for? Mostly that I may sit down under thebig beech-tre- e, on that flat stone

iust to get a feeling of girlhood." An old man, leaning ona stall was found looking roundin the corner of a hillside orchard.lie said, "I want to see the oldleaning tree that eighty yearsago I walked up barefooted. Iam lonesome for that tree. Thenew is not the old, but the old isall new. I must be made overagain by death."
