GOV. GEORGE CURRY
RESIGNS HIS OFFICE
(Continued from Page 1)
deeply interested in the future of New
Mexico.
" "I will remain in the territory fnd
will go into business as soon as pos
sible. I will always work for the ter
ritory's interests and its. people and
will do all in my power to further
the interests of statehood." ,
That . Governor Curry's intentions
were to resign in the near future was
prompted by the feeling that Presi
dent Taft was not in accord with the
territorial administration and rwith
his official acts, thereby showing a
lack -of confidence in him, cannot be
denied. The executive is a southern
er and is of a bensitive and high
strung temperament The refusal of
his request to go to Washington made
by Secretary of the Interior Balllnger
was, the governor thought, entirely
unwarranted, so he quit. ,
Governor Curry has held the office
a little over a year and eight months.
He was named to succeed H. J. Hag
erman, whose resignation was called
for in May, 1907, after charges had
been filed against "him. Curry was in
the Philippines at the time, serving as
governor of the island of Samar and
was named by the president who se
lected him without consulting any of
the party leaders in New Mexico. He
took office on August 8, 1907. -
Curry was entirely satisfactory to
all factions, and although he assumed
the gubernatorial office at the time
when matters were in a chaotic state
In the territory, incident to the Inves
tigation of alleged land and timber
frauds In the territory, then under
way by special agents of the general
land office and the interior depart
ment' he soon restored harmony and
during his term as governor, territor
ial affairs have been better adminis
tered from the standpoint ,pf harmony
than for many years.
Curry is popular with the masses
and a etof m of protests has already
gone up as a result of his reslgna-.
tion. Telegrams from all over the
territory poured in to the executive
office today, calling upon' him to re
consider his resignation and continue
as governor.
He has acted, he says, and u&der
no circumstances, will he remain in
office.
This afternoon it looks as if the re-

during the Spanish-American war, and
it was during that time that Colonel
Roosevelt made Is acquaintance.
When New Mexlctf 'rieeded a govern
or in 1907, Roosevelt thought of Cur
ry and his appointment followed.
A determined effort will be made
by the party leaders not toallow soma
eastern man, unknown 'to the people
of the territory and unacquainted with
conditions in New Mexico, to be-ap-
pointed, as they believe such a step
will retard the chances of early,' State-;
