Views Of Governor Otero

Santa Fe, N. M., March 1.- "If the Maine disaster should be shown tay the court of inquiry to be due to Spanish treachery," said Governor Otero, "the transfer of all Spain's West Indian possessions to the United States would not, in my judgment, be sufficient atonement for the outrage. and our government would be justiñed in deferring negotiations for indemnity until merlted chastisement had been inflicted. Cuba's freedom is not necessarily involved in this affair of ours. In case of war New Mexico's Spanish-speaking soldiery will be found at the front with the United States troops."
