A Macedonian Cry from Western So
zorro County.

The people of western Socorro county
are In sad plight, owing to the fact that
they are far-removed from their county
seat and do not receive any assistance
from the ''powers that be-" in the protec-
ton of life and property. Tho only use
they appear to be, is to be taxed, and at
every sitting OF court to be compelled
to expend money and time in serving
their county as jurors and witnesses.
Two cowardly murders recently commit
ted in that section remain unayenged
for the simple reason that no provision
has been made by the county commits
sioncrs for their detention. The atten-
ton of the board has been called re-
peatedly to the necessity of jail, but
no heed has been paid to the petitions
nor has any provision been made for
school room for the many children in the
camp. Inasmuch as those elected for
the express purpose of guarding tho
welfare of the people have proven re-
creant to their trust, in our humble
opinion, the attention of the presiding
Judge of the district should be called to
the fact, and if it be possible, some meas
ure should be instituted to compel the
board to do its duty.-Silver City Enter
prise.

since no amount of diversion of water in
this state would destroy the navigation
of any river in its lower course. However,
while the people of Colorado have control
of the water of their streams, the people
of New Mexico need not think that their
condition is hopeless. Only small per
centage of the water which is used in irri-
cation fails to return to the stream from
which it is taken. The water is not de-
stroyed. In obedience to the law of
gravitation, it finds its level and seeps
through the irrigated soil back to the
river bed.--Denver Republican.

Judge Falls Position on the Irriga.
ton Question.

Judge Fairs Position ON the 1rriga-
ton Question.
In an address before the Deming, New
Mexico, irrigation convention Judge A. B.
Fall took the position that there is no
power which can prevent the state of
Colorado. from diverting the waters of
the Rio Grande, which rises in Colorado
and flows into New Mexico. This posi-
tion is correct, except that the vested
right of irrigators below the southern
boundary of this state could be protected
in the courts. The people of Colorado
have no right to destroy vested rights
in another state or anywhere else. But,
subject to the qualification, they have
absolute control over the waters of
streams rising IN this state. The water
of the streams of Colorado belongs to the
people of this state, and the national
government has no control over it, since
none of these streams are navigable.
There is very little profit in talking about
possibilities, but if it were possible by
the diversion of water to render a stream
in its lower courseunnavagable,t the power
of the national government might step in
and prevent that. But this is impossible,

What New Mexico Needs.

What New Mexico needs at present
more than any other is more railroads to
give outlets for the produce of those val
leys of the territory which, owing to the
distance from railroads, have until now
been only partially developed. The Taos
valley alone, with adequate railroad
facilities, would support population
equal to that of Rhode Island.-Las Vegas

THE BICYCLE GIRL.

Maud Muller on q summer day
Mounted her bicycle and rode away.
But when she looked to the faroff town
Her hopes went up, and her feet went down,
And her speed increased till the dust arose
And filed her hair and throat and nose.
Thus real estate she had not known
She carried away and called her own.
The Judge walked slowly down the lane,
Swinging his great gold headed cane,
And looked at the grass and flowers and trees,
The singing birds and humming bees
And watched the swallows skim and dip
Till the bicycle struck him amidship,
When he stopped where the cool spring bub.
bled up,
A little disfgured and doubled up.
And when he came to he wondered whether
The lightning had struck him in such fair
weather.
His clothes were torn, and his brand new cane
Was found next day at the end of the lane.
He held his shin while he danced a reel
In may whirl with the maiden's wheel.
And something he said about he'd be blowed
If he didn't wish she'd staid out of the road.
He spoke of the things which the preachers say
Are the sinners doom on the judgment day.
And Maud forgot her much torn gown
And her promised trip to the faroff town
And listened, while a sad surprise
Looked out from her beautiful hazel eyes.
At last, like one who couldn't stay,
She mounted her wheel to ride away.
But alas for maidenI Alas for judge!
She found the bicycle wouldn't bulge.
Her wheel in vain TO spin 1t she turned,
While her cheeks like a tallow candle burned
For the tire was off, and the chain was broke
One treadle was wound around spoke.
The Judge looked back as he climbed the hill
And saw Maud Muller standing still.
The proud man sighed with secret pain
For fear the thing would hit him again.
But the lawyers smiled that afternoon
To see him so sadly out of tune,
For they could not guess by mile or so
| The pictures he saw come and 60.
And when the maiden drew her draft
For damage done the judge he laughed.
And drew his check and not his rein,
Saying, Far worse it might have BEEN"
But 1t filled his heart and soul with awe
When he tried to explain to his mother-in-law
And when she spoke of the squandered gold
He grew hot and she grew cold.
All! we'll for us all that q husbands lies
Are as good as the truth in woman's eyes.
| And in the hereafter angels may
| Quit riding bicycles on the highway.

Judge Baldwin yesterday heard thir-
ty cases in which objections to the
right of persons registered to vote had
been made. OF that number, the OBJ
jections were sustained in nineteen
cases and eleven were carried over.
The monotony of the proceedings was
broken by several rather exciting Incl
dents in the course of the day, one of
which was the arrest of ]. ]. Gilmore,
one of the chalIengers. It seemed that
Mr.. Gilmore served a personal notice
of objections on G.. s. Douglas, and the
objections were not sustained. Soon
after Mr. Gilmore was arrested by Dep
uty Sheriff Joe O'Brien on a warrant
sworn to by Douglas, charging him
with perjury. Mr.. Gilmore at once
gave bail, Thomas Howells and o. B.
Olsen going on his bond, and was re-
leased. The case will come before
Commissioner Greenman next Tuesday
at 2 p. m. The charge is utterly ridic-
ulous, in view of the fact that Mr.. Gil
more simply testified that the land
lady of the house where Douglas was
registered informed him that the man
had not been in the territory the nee
essary six months. The fact that Joe
conclusion that the whole affair was
simply another attempt at Liberal bull
doing.
No better evidence could be adduced
to show that the Liberals acknowledge
as their own the irresponsible, hobo
element of the community than their
extreme solicitude for and defense of
every man against whom objections are
made.

stricken off the lists yesterday on the
ground of non-residence:

In a number of cases it has been dis
covered that certain parties have reg
istered in two precincts, slightly chang

ing to allow some hobo to vote in one
precinct, while the actual owner of the
name votes in another. But this. like
all the other disreputable schemes of
the gang, has been promptly frustra-
ted. There is a long list of cases set

1t Was the sickest Meeting Ever Held
Here.

1t Was the Sickest Meeting Ever Held
Here.
The Liberals held rally in front of
the Cullen yesterday afternoon About
300 people, at least half of whom were
Citizens, drawn to the scene out of
curiosity. were present. Johnny the
Kid" Jerry Conklin and other candi-
dates were present, and they all looked
sad and detected.
Judge Colborn opened the ball with
little talk about improvements made
by the Liberals, and was followed by
Mr. Conklin, who had very little to
say and didn't say it very well.
Frank Hoffman said that the Citi-
zens were making an unfair fight on
the Liberals. The Citizens had started
out by decrying mud singing and
personalities, and now they were in
dulging in that sort of work against
the Liberals and it wasn't right. He
didn't think the conditions had chang
ed enough to warrant the Liberal
party disbanding, and he didn't think
the men who had trained with them
in the past should go back on them
now.
If the crowd agreed with Frank,
there was no demonstration to show it.
Sam ellison then arose, put on his
glasses and said he didn't know why
the Liberals had called him UP there.
No one offering any light on the sub
ject, Sam proceeded to roast Arthur
Pratt, denouncing him as traitor.
Sans speech was a dismal failure,
and by the time he finished all that
was left of the crowd was the drum
corps.
Powers, Colborn and Conlxlin spoke
at little meeting in a room on Sec
ond South street last evening.

LIBERAL METHODS.
Non-Payment of the sewer Refund Causes
a Suit.

1t is a well known fact that there
are large sums of money owing by
Salt Lake city corporation to numer-
Gus parties for refund of excessive
sewer taxes collected. Not only is this
so in cases where the sewers have been
completed, but in a good many cases
large sums have been collected for
the extension of sewers in places
where the city council has recently
determined not to go on with the pro-
posed work. Numerous applications
have been made to the council for a
refund of the money, but without
success. The council dilly dallys with
the demands and refers the commuri-
cations from one committee to another.
This sort of thing has been going on
for months and the victims of this
dishonesty are thoroughly sick of it.
So sick of it, in fact, that yesterday
eighty-one of the. unfertunates as
signed their claims to w. W. Ritter,
who planted a suit in the Third dis
trict court against the city for re
fund of $9,346.2O, money paid for sewer
extensions in excess of the actual cost
of the construction.
