Winter Traditional Market Santa Fe Mayor David Coss wants to run for Ben Lujan’s We were not there but that didn’t stop collectors and seat in the New Mexico Legislature because Coss is hav- artists from calling us with horror stories. The Santa Fe ing so much fun being Mayor. Just a suggestion: maybe Convention Center FORGOT to turn on the lights. Maybe Coss needs to stop having fun and do the job. it is us but when you rent a space it includes lights? The Winter Pay-Through-The-Nose Preview Party was a flop. Just an idea from two Anglos: why not have BOTH Beside non-traditional foods you had to BUY your own of the Markets — Contemporary and Traditional at the drinks including water. Nice! We are glad the holiday Santa Fe Convention Center? There is plenty of room, the spirit is dead! The tea had 20 elderly ladies attend at moveable wall could separate the two Markets because SCAS President Jim Long’s hotel—nice! The Home Tour we all know they don’t play well together, and they was a bust—nice too. The Home Tour visited one garage. could BOTH take advantage of each other’s marketing No one came to Winter Market and artists didn’t sell. It was promoted that 100 artists would be in attendance to sell but there were really 78. Sad! What REALLY burns us up is thousands of dollars of food for the Preview was gotten and when no one ate the food, mainly because it was cold, instead of giving it to a shelter who could use it, the food was THROWN AWAY!!!!! What are they thinking? For that alone Donna and Maggie need to be fired ASAP. So to recap - artists paid about $300 each for a booth and made no money. What about that doesn’t work for you? The print ad that the Spanish Colonial Arts Society paid for Winter Market had the wrong times. We are thinking about this and wouldn’t SCAS know what time Winter Market was? And didn’t SCAS design and place the ad? This is not the first time a SCAS ad was really wrong — the SCAS Matanza ad had no date. Maybe these are secret events — you have to be a chosen few to know. We may have seen the death of SCAS and Winter Market. If artists don’t demand accountability this is what is going to happen in July. If gas prices stay high, plan- ning is necessary. Contemporary Hispanic Market There were less artists in attendance and less custom- ers. They did have Hispanic Holiday music and it did add to the event. They run a tight but casual show and have a lot of potential. One artist said all the shows in Santa Fe have been poor. Maybe it is Santa Fe? We did notice the Convention Center did not change burned out light bulbs and shovel snow off of walk-ways. We heard the loading dock was a sheet of ice. Do they know about lawsuits? But TRADICIÓN April 2012 9 and visitors. Just a suggestion — it will never happen but wouldn’t it be nice! There is more than enough room for both Markets! Saint Tim NICholas Catherine Robles Shaw made a Tim Tebow retablo for Winter Market. It was tongue-in-cheek and Catherine never called him Saint Tebow though the Albuquerque HERRERA Journal did. She got angry emails for her retablo. Her reply back to angry people was we have lost our sense of hu- mor and she never called him “saint.” Aren’t there more important things to deal with? And imagine hate mail three days before Christmas! Happy Holidays to you too! Goodwill toward men except if you like Tim Tebow! Note: Tebow had moved on to New York City now. Hats off to the Vargas Family of Albu- querque In celebrating their son’s life the Vargas Family gave $1000 of new shoes to the Albuquerque School System. Vargas, who was a budding artist, was killed in Down- town Albuquerque. St. John’s Back on the Radar After a year of not having the St. John’s Spanish Market in February, it came back with joy! There were more artists, more clients, music, and fun! We hope this is a trend. When we were there we saw customers and people buying. Hats off to Charlie Carrillo and Arlene Cisneros Sena, as well at the St. John’s people that made it work! Bizarre Foods Put on your TV calendar Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern on the Travel Channel for the Matanza and other New Mexico foods. The episode is scheduled for July. Award We are honored to receive the Mille Santillanes Edu- cation Award from the New Mexico Hispanic Cultural Preservation League. See more on page 73.

( In Santa Fe Donaciano Vigil, acting governor of New Mexico following the assassination of Governor Bent, sus­ pended the Vicario, chief representative of the Church, from exercising ecclesiastical functions on the ground that his ministrations were inimical to the American institutions which were gradually being introduced. These and similarly unwarranted infringements upon the rights of the Catholic church soon caused threats of rebellion.

Historians have explored various parts of this movement in a discrete fashion, but never has anyone attempted to examine the history of the effort to create a Union Party across the decade of the 1850s. What I find is that all incarnations of the Union Party stressed a common devotion to the rule of law, which they saw as under threat by sectional agitators who stirred up the passions of the public. Whether in debates over the right of the federal government to coerce a state, the legality of the Fugitive Slave Act, and presence of filibustering oversees, or the violence which attended partisan elections, Americans’ respect for the rule of law seemed at issue throughout that turbulent decade.

  • "A Pleasant Winter for Lew Wilmot"
    "A Pleasant Winter for Lew Wilmot" BY LUTHER PERRY WILMOT In 1860 on the 1st of July, Father and I1 mined in Georgia Gulch. Having worked all summer, most of the time improving a Claim we had leased for three years, Father wanted to stay in the Gulch all winter and do what he could toward getting ready for the early run of water in the spring.2 1 The author, Luther P erry Wilmot, was born in Freeport, Illinois, in 1839. His father, Benjamin Robinson Wilmot, was native to Kentucky, while his mother, Virginia Hawkins Wilmot, was born in Virginia. See Norman B. Adkison, The Nez Perce Indian War and Original Stories (Grangeville, Idaho: Idaho County Free Press, 1966), p. 20. According to information written to the Librarian of the State Historical Society of Colorado by Wilmot's last surviving child, Cynthia Ann (Mrs. Miles) Ramsey of Olympia, Washington, the Wilmots were living in Atchison, Kansas, when Luther came to Colorado with his father. His account of the winter of 1860-61 is presented here with his own vigorous observations and spellings. 2 The mining area of Georgia Gulch lay below 11,598-foot Georgia Pass in the Park Range on the northwest slope. It sprang up coincidentally with mines of the Blue River and South Park. The Canon City Times on February 16, 1861, p. 2, reported that about four hundred people were wintering in the Gulch, 175 being in the camp called Georgia, where provisions were available.

Pueblo Indians and Citizenship in Territorial New Mexico Deborah A. Rosen here has been a continuing debate about the appropriate status ofNative Tpeoples in the European American political structure since the arrival bf the first Europeans in the Americas. The question was whether Indians should be treated as wards, as citizens, or as separate nations. Disputants often formally disregarded the third option and focused on whether Indians should be regarded as equals under the law or, instead, should have a special "pro­ tected" status. Beneath such intellectual discussions lay jurisdictional dis­ putes, conflicts over economic benefits, and battles over cultural boundaries. This article examines the debate over the status of the Pueblo Indians of New Mexico from the beginning of New Mexico's history as a U.S. territory in the 1850S to the Supreme Courtdecision in United States v.Joseph in 1877. The Treaty ofGuadalupe Hidalgo, ending the Mexican-American War in 1848, provided all Mexican citizens in the territory acquired from Mexico with U.S.

  • MJ Alarid Caudillo Justice- Intercultural Conflict and Social
    Caudillo Justice: Intercultural Conflict and Social Change in Santa Fe, New Mexico, 1837-1853. Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Michael J. Alarid, MA Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Randolph Roth, Advisor Kenneth Andrien John F. Guilmartin Copyright by Michael Joseph Alarid 2012 ABSTRACT This project is the story of the Hispanos in New Mexico who were caught within the maelstrom of American colonization, of complex peoples with their own power structures who occupied a space in the path of a burgeoning empire. More specifically, this is the tale of how an ethnically distinct, religiously different, and politically and economically savvy people endured the process of American colonization. My focus is 1837 to 1853, and I examine the relationship between Hispanos and incoming immigrants; first from Mexico and later from the United States. I seek to challenge previously held notions about how the process of territorialization played out in Santa Fe County and New Mexico more broadly during both the Mexican and American periods. I argue that the New Mexican “elites” were in actuality Mexican caudillos: local strongmen who utilized their vast kinship networks and wealth to dictate regional policy – providing protection to the local population when it was in their best interest, exploiting and intimidating them when it was not. My approach considers multiple variables, such as class, race, economy, criminality, resistance, and accommodation, as well as how each of these variables influenced the strategies and actions of multiple social groups – New Mexican landholders, poor vecinos, Anglo settlers, and the territorial authorities in Santa Fe County.

XVIII APRIL, 1943 No. 2 NEW MEXICO AND THE SECTIONAL CONTROVERSY, 1846-18611 - By LOOMIS MORTON GANAWAY , Until recent years, the study of New Mexico history has excited no general interest. Just as American social, eco­ nomic, and political trends have been tardy in affecting New Mexico, so interest in historical research for that region has lagged. In other sections of the country, opportunities for important studies have pt~sented themselves readily, but in an attempt to appraise a series of events in New Mexico history, difficulties are almost insuperable. The source materials are widely scattered, and in certain instances, the documents are practically inaccessible. Possibly for these reasons, the sectional controversy as it involved New Mexico has not heretofore provoked extensive research. This study is an attempt to interpret the sectional controversy in its re­ lation to the nation and that region.

  • Chronicles of the Trail
    Chronicles of the Trail Quarterly Journal of El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro Trail Association Vol. 9, No. 2 Summer 2013 Ysleta del Sur Mission Church, El Paso, Texas, c. 1907 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Greetings, Your CARTA board has been busy the past couple of months. We’ve finally gotten into high gear preparing for the Symposium in El Paso this September. I hope you’ve had a chance to check out the announcement which you either have or will soon receive. I think it will be one of the most interesting presentations concerning Los Caminos Reales in the Americas so far. El Paso is a city of many facets and if you don’t live there, it’s worth your while to spend a little time checking it out. It’s a far cry from the old frontier town some still see it as and the fall is the best time to visit. So give some thought to turning the CARTA Symposium into a long weekend’s adventure. At our last board meeting in Albuquerque we were introduced to Peggy Hardman, a high school teacher and active historian from Socorro. She has accepted the challenge of becoming our new interim treasurer. We bid her an enthusiastic welcome. At the same time, we offer our sincere gratitude to our departing treasurer, Rob Spence, for his many efforts and contributions over the past year. While I’m passing out thanks, I’d like to include a hearty dose for the board members who are putting in all the extra time and effort toward the success of the Symposium.
