Governor Curry of New Mexico, following up on President Roosevelt’s letter, has expressed to the manager of the Santa Fe Water & Light Company that attempts at blackmail against the company will be prosecuted. Richard H. Hanna’s information about district court clerk William E. Martin is true, but the Department of Justice did not object to his appointment. Mariano Senna’s appointment as deputy clerk was a mistake, however, and he has been removed. Curry will personally fight any wrongdoing in the Territory of New Mexico, and the strife will not last.
