Bill Mccarty Interviewed by Gladys Long
Socorro County Historical Society, Oral History Tapes Bill McCarty interviewed by Gladys Long Bill McCarty is a native New Mexican who was born in Reserve 77 years ago. Can you tell us something about Reserve? It's just a Spanish settlement, and they got their mail just once a month. It came from Alma when they did get it about once a month - 35 miles south of Reserve. Is that town still around? It's practically a ghost town. On the main highway between? --Reserve and Silver City. My father came in 1882 with the John B. Slaughter trail herd and he stayed there the rest of his life. His age at the time was nineteen - he was nineteen years old. He spent his lifetime there- he went first into the mercantile business and then he went into the livestock business. The business he spent his life in. Did he start with a store or did he - I thought you said he came from Texas. My grandfather, that's my mother's father, organized this store. They organized it in eighteen and eighty seven. And then in eighteen and eighty eight my father did the framing then that was the winter of the big blizzard over the whole country - 1888. The blizzard of '88 they called it, and he waited (waded?) for 120 days from Magdalena to the Patterson place. Where is the Patterson place? The Patterson Lake? Well it's about ten miles below Horse Springs on the road going to Beaverhead or maybe Mogollon. Is it more of a path? Oh, it was just a path, but he was able to rent a house there to store his groceries in until the wagons would pick it up and take it to my grandfather's store in Frisco. -

Bingaman Safe, Johnson Dems' Only Threat in Open Seat Race
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 8, 2011 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Bingaman safe, Johnson Dems’ only threat in open seat race Raleigh, N.C. – New Mexico Senator Jeff Bingaman generally cruises to re-election, and if he chooses to go for a sixth term, he would start off as a heavy favorite. But there has been some speculation he will instead retire. In his stead, Democrats should still be in strong shape to hold his seat unless popular former Governor Gary Johnson declines a run for president to make a bid for Congress’ upper chamber instead. With a 56-27 approval-disapproval margin, Bingaman is more popular at home than all but four of the 77 colleagues which PPP has measured in the last year or so. This strong favor with his voters gives Bingaman formidable odds to walk to re-election, even against Johson, whose 44-32 favorability rating makes him considerably the best liked of the non-Bingaman candidates, and who is almost equally popular with Democrats, Republicans, and independents. Johnson comes closest to beating the incumbent, yet still trails, 51-40. By comparison, Rep. Steve Pearce lags Bingaman, 57-34, and Rep. Heather Wilson trails, 56-37. The Republicans all do what would make them far more competitive in almost any other state: they at least match the incumbent in party unity and take more of his voters from him than he does of theirs. -

Elfego Baca and the "Frisco Shootout"
Elfego Baca and the "Frisco Shootout" Elfego Baca was a gunman, lawman, lawyer, and politician in the closing days of the Wild West. His goal in life was to be a peace officer, He wanted, he said, "The outlaws to hear my steps a block away". Southwest New Mexico at the time was still relatively a sparsely settled cattle ranching country. In 1884, at age 19, Baca stole some guns, bought a mail-order sheriff's badge, and more or less appointed himself deputy sheriff in Socorro County, New Mexico. Cowboys roamed the land and did as they pleased. They might come into a town, drink at the saloon, harass the locals, and then shoot up the town out of boredom. Baca meant to put an end to that. In October, 1884, in the town of Lower San Francisco Plaza, Elfego Baca arrested a drunken cowboy named Charlie McCarty. Baca flashed his badge at McCarty after deputizing himself as a peace officer, and took McCarty's gun. After Bill Milligan, the owner of the bar, refused to press charges, Baca took McCarty hostage. McCarty's fellow cowboys attempted a peaceful negotiation of his release, but Baca refused and opened fire on the negotiator. After deputies and justices of the peace were brought in from surrounding towns, Baca was forced to bring McCarty back to the Justice of the Peace for a trial and, in turn, was provided with assurances of Baca's safety. Justice of the Peace Ted White granted McCarty's freedom. After the verdict, Elfego Baca ran out of the courtroom still in possession of McCarty's gun. -

Lincoln's New Mexico Patronage: Saving the Far Southwest for the Union DEREN EARL KELLOGG New Mexico Territory receives scant mention in connection with the administration of President Abraham Lincoln. Historians have generally concluded that Lincoln and other federal officials attached no great value to the territory and mostly neglected it. It is true that Lincoln could devote little attention to the administration of the western territories during the Civil War, which threatened the very future ofthe country. However, evi I, dence suggests that Lincoln did care about saving New Mexico:for the Union and should be given some credit for achieving this goal. Aithough Lincoln's western patronage record was generally undistinguished, his appointments to the New Mexico Territory were popular men who had' experience in the Southwest and who often did not identify themselves with the Republican Party. -
