POWER OF THE PRESS

A foreign dramatist, brilliant, but with no more heart
in him than a dry gourd, made a playa bold slap in
the face of decency. In manuscript form it was harmless
enough. Only George Bernard Shaw and a few hardened
theatrical people had access to it. But a certain coterie
of dramatic talent agreed to perform it. Arnold DAILY,
an excellent actor and manager, decided that the paly
appealed to the worldly wise who wanted the naked
truth, the more undressed the better.
First the paly was tried on a little New England
town. Then the play was hurried to New York, with its
wickedness well advertised, and everything was made
ready to reap the shekels from moral perverts who revel
in seeing mimicked what wholesome people know only
to despise. OF course, at the first performance there was
a crowd. While gieefully taking in the gate money the
management said that it would leave the fitness of the
play to the press.
Next morning the press gave the verdict 1t was
so unanimous, not to say pronounced, that the police
FASTENED to forbid the further production of the rotten
play and arrested the house manager. Now the promo
tiers of the play mourn the loss of $4,000, expended in
staging the play, and declare that the public cannot
stand to see the truth portrayed.
The play itself is one of those comedies which
abounds in foulness and has a number of immoral and
degenerate characters. 1t defends immortality and glori-
hes debauchery and has so, aroused New York's sense of
shame that the press, in defense of public decency, would
not permit it to continue, merely for the sake of satisfy
ing the morbidly curious. In the play Mr.. Daily and Miss
Herne were young sweethearts. An old rake, Sir George
Crofts, sues for the maiden's hand and upon being re-
fused, tells her of her mothers partnership in the ne
farious profession" that has brought her so much
wealth. The upshot of this recital is the young lovers
entrance, rifle in hand, with the intent to kill the old
rue. The latter, in revenge, hurls at the young couple
that they are half brother and sister, a clergyman being
their father.
Because crime is a fact is no cause for wanting
more of it; because immortality is a fact is no reason
for making it profitable for "selfsacrifcing' actors to
force it upon the public. The press has earned new
laurels by its general condemnation and has done a ster-
ling public service. The movement by the Women's
clubs of Chicago the other day, for a moral theater,
was none too soon.

TROLLEY LINE WHICH WILL
RUN WITHOUT TRACKS.

An enterprise is being organized in
San Juan to establish in Porto Rico
a trolley line operating along the
country roads without tracks. The
cars will be constructed after the
manner OF automobiles. but will be
operated from an overhead transbis-
sion wire The new service is to be
for the transportation Of freight and
will operate from San Juan to Ponce
and from there to Humacao, Farjardo
and loqulllo, covering the central and
western portions of the island. The
successful development of such a sys-
tenn will mean a cheap method of
construction which can be made avail
able for many places in the tropics
where there is freight to be moved.
but conditions are such that a rail-
road could not be made to pay.

SERIOUSLY INJURED IN
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT

The other evening Mrs. A. S. Neff
was very seriously injured by being
thrown out of her buggy at the inter
section of Park ven and Third
street, says the Ration Range.
Mrs. Neff was alone in the buggy,
near the First National bank, when
! the horses became frightened and
ran west on Park avenu at a ter
rife rate. In turning the corne of
Third street and Park avenue, the
buggy was turned completely over and
Mrs. Neff was thrown some distance,
sustaining a fracture of her collar
bone and dislocation of a rib. Park
avenue was crowded at the time of
the accident, and the injured woman
received careful attention immedi-
ately. She was placed on a stretcher
and removed to the home of Mrs. j.
B. Grouse, where he injuries were at
tended to by DR.. C. B. Kohlhousen.
Mrs. Neff is resting easy, although her
\ condition is very serious.

SELECTIONS MADE FROM
PRESS OF SOUTHWEST
Foresight Not Good.

The republicans of the great state of Ohio are sadly
torn up over the railroad rate question, Secretary Taft
advising one thing while Senator Foraker tells then
that the secretary does not know what he is talking
about. Yet the members of the G. o. P. are united on
one question: that is, they must elect the republican
ticket, which they will undoubtedly do.
The municipal campaign in the city of New York is
a hot number, and the metropolis is stirred as it has not
been for years. However, the indications are that the
Tammany candidates will pull through with rousing ma
jorites, with the exception of their candidate for district
attorney-Capitan News.

One View Held.

The New Mexican is wrong in the assertion that the
change in conditions in Albuquerque with regard to the
enforcement of the Sunday laws was caused by six
months of newspaper agitation" The Albuquerque pa
pers didn't agitate the question and we don't believe
that the agitation of other papers, including The Optic,
had a thing in the world to do with the matter. Judge
Abbott and the district attorney knew the law was being
violated and they made up their minds that the law must
be enforced much longer than six months ago and worked
TO that end accordingly-Las Vegas Optic.

Henry Clews:' Business conditions continue very
promising. Great activity is reported in all sections OF
the country, keeping money actively employed and sug-
costing firm rates for weeks to come. In almost every
department Of industrial, commercial or financial activity
records have been daily broken. 1t is quite safe to say
that the volume Of trade during the present year far
suTpasses all other years in the history of the country.
There are signs here and there of its approaching end;
and yet the relative absence of dangerous speculation,
the unquestionably rapid development Of our natural re-
sources, the great growth in population and the absence
thus far OF any general signs Of oyerproduction give con
hdence in the belief that we are to enjoy at least another
year Of general prosperity.

Here are two interesting contrasts. In 1871 Sir VIM.
Berkeley, colonial governor of Virginia by appointment of
the English crown, said: But | thank God, there are
no free schools nor printing; and hope we shall not
have these for a hundred years, for learning has brought
disobedience and heresy and sects into the world and
printing has divulged them and Hbels gainst the best
government, God keep us from both" Twenty-nine
years after, or in 1900, ten ministers assembled at the
village of Bradford, a few miles east of New Haven,
Conn. Each of them deposited a few books on a table
around which they had gathered, and each said: Il give
these books for the founding Of a college in this colony. -
And this was the beginning Of the now great University
of Yale, so named because Elihu Yale, one of the ten,
gave more books than any one Of the other nine.

of America. They are: speropanagorotis Pappatheodoro

of ffty-one letters in his full name, while his fellow suf-
ferer has only six less. When they sign their names to-

New Mexican: The Journal albuquerque claims
that the membership Of the committee republican cen
traD was selected by Delegate w. II. Andrews after the
holding Of the republican convention which nominated
him in September, 1904. This is another absolute I'M
truth. The delegation from each county in convention
assembled, selected the members Of the committee TO
represent such county. Some Of the members Of tn ex-
ecutiye committee were requested by the delegate. This
request was granted as it is universal custom and simple
courtesy. The members actually selected by the dele
gate number seven and constitute a very small part OF
the committee.

Fortunate

A movement has already begun for the organization
OF a fire department for Ration. Two well drilled com
panies OF twenty men each would unquestionably be a
safeguard against disaster. Fortunately Ration has never
had a serious con1agration. Other towns have had, though.
and we have no assurance that we will be spared. The
thing to do is to prepare for it now. The CITY council
should take some decisive step in the matter, and citi
zens should follow the matter by an organization which
would be an effective safeguard.-Raton Range.
Views on Statehood.
Statehood is within our grasp. 1t will be given us
in time to take part in the next presidential campaign
which present indications portend will be one of the
most important since the election of Lincoln. Are We
so devoid of patriotism and desire to have a voice in
the settlement Of these questions Of railroad rates. in
surance, etc. as to reject that which offers us the oppor
tunity? We say, No! San Juan county will practically
be a unit, when it comes to a showdown, in favor Of
Joint Hustler.

Look Ahead.

A farmer that has a little
dairy may make of it a very
profitable part of his farm work If he
will but look ahead and not be salts
fed with what he has. The first effort
should be to grade up the herd to a
high state of productiveness. He can
do this by hunting around for a pure
bred sire of one OF the milk breeds
and using such a sire wen il he is
miles further away than a poorer bull.
The man that is satisfied and will
keep any calf he raises is the man
that will be no richer ten years from
now than he is to-day. The man that
will be richer at that time than now
is the man that looks. ahead and
pushes ahead.

This is a quite common dis.
ease, of which there are several va
rieties. Two principal varieties are
prevalent, one in the summer and the
other in the winter. OF the two, the
summer disease is considered the more
fatal. The best treatment for roup is
to kill the birds and bury them deep
away from the other fowls. Some
doctor valuable birds, and one of the
processes used is to dissolve two
ounce of permanganate of potash in
six and one-half pints of water. Into
this solution the head of the fowl is
