CONDUCTOR
WITH NERVE
Encounter With a Train
Robber on the Louis
vile & Nash
vile Road.
man WAS PROBABLY SHOT
Wore a Mask and Jumped from a
Dark Corner of the Pull
man Sleeper.

Louisville, KY, Dec. 3O.-Conductor
j. ID. Kecne of the north bound New
Orleans and Cincinnati express on the
Louisville and Nashville road, had a
desperate encounter with train rob-
ber early today as the train was nearing
South Louisville. The conductor, who
was shot by the robber over the left
temple, is confident he killed or NOR
tally wounded the intruder with a bull
let from Winchester rifle. Keene
said that while he was passing through
the Pullman car as the train was enter
ing the limits of South Louisville short
ly after 3, he was stopped by man
wearing mask. The robber had
jumped from dark corner of the car,
and, with a drawn revolver, commanded
Keene to throw up his hands. Instead
OF doing so, the conductor grappled
with the man. A pistol ball momer tar
lily stunned Keene and the robber
pulled the bell cord, but before the
train stopped, the highwayman robbed
the passengers in the sleeper. He held
up Joseph Redford, Pullman car con-
ductor, and j. r. Moore, the only pas
senger, taking $25 from the latter. As
the train slowed down the robber
jumped off, but was followed by Con-
ductor Keene, who had secured Win
chester. The conductor fired as he
went and emptied his rifle at the flee
ing man. At one of the shots, the rob-
ber let OUT a yell of pain. Tie firing
aroused the passengers and caused con-
siderable excitement,

citizenship. That, besides, intelligence
and wealth rule among every people;
that New Mexico Is no exception to this
rule; and that the intelligence and
wealth of the territory are in the posses
sion of the English.speaking portion Of
the population of the territory, which
insures wise and conservative govern
ment.
II it be further said that the admis-
sion of communities with populations
small in comparison with some OF the
older states gives these communities an
equal representation In the senate of the
United States with these larger states,
we would reply that equal representa-
tion in that body is fundamental
principle of the constitution and has
ever been tie rule of American
life in the admission of new states, and
that without recognition OF this princi-
pie the Onion itself, under the consti-
tuition, could never have been formed,
and that the rule of apportionment or
representation in accordance with pop
ulation, applied as it is in the house OF
representatives and the electoral COL
lege, gives the larger states the advant-
age their larger numbers entitle them
to In the counsels of the nation.
Therefore, be it resolved, that this
chamber unanimously favors the pass.
age of the (so-called) omnibus statehood
bill, now pending In the senate of the

C0WARDLY ATTACKS
UPON THE GOVERNOR
Every Senator and Representative in
Congress Has Received an Unsign-
ed and Printed Circular of
Charges and Abuse.
THE SAME FELLOW WAS
HEARD FROM BEFORE
Special to the New Mexican.

Special to the New Mexican.
Washington, Dec. 3O.-Governor Otero
has an anonymous enemy in Washington
who takes every opportunity that pre-
sents itself to attack him. During tho
past week every senator and represen-
taJive III congress has received printed
circular without signature or anything
to indicate the author. This circular
purports to be an argument In favor of
the admission of New Mexico to state
hood, but it is mainly IN attack upon
the governor. The circular charges
Governor Otero with constant illegal
tiles" 1t declares she has removed Of
ficers contrary to law, and appointed
members of the legislature and others
whose appointment was prohibited. He
uses the appointing power as II personal
perquisite with no thought of fairness,
but simply to secure a political
striker. He filed the chief offices
with his crones. The pardoning
power is prostitutcd for political pur
poses, q promise of political support
quickly opening the door to the worst
criminals. The sale and lease of the
public land is a scandal and disgrace.
The whole administration is d political
machine, used for personal purposes, not
Republicanism, but Oteroism."
Probably every member Of congress
consigned the anti-Otsro document to
his wastebasket. The same class of cir
culars was in evidence when Mr.. Otero
was before the senate for confirmation
upon being appointed governor and
again when re-appointed.
This cowardly and anonymous attack
is doing statehood great deal of harm
and is making friends for Governor Ote-
ro. Senators and congressman do not
like towards and are too often troubled
by similar anonymous attacks upon
themselves to pay any attention to such
dirty truck. The charges contained in
the circular were all fully examined by
the senate committee on territories
some time ago and found to be absolute
ly untrue and false,
