Territorial Governor of New Mexico Curry appreciates President Roosevelt’s confidence in him, promising to justify it. Supporters of Vice President Charles W. Fairbanks held a demonstration during his recent visit to the territory, which proved “an absolute failure.” If able, Curry will meet Roosevelt in St. Louis, Missouri, to discuss New Mexico affairs. Despite the general support of his administration, Curry admits he does “do[es] not like” being governor, but will continue for the present because Roosevelt wishes for him to do so.
