RIDDLE RIDDLED
BY STOCKMEN

Denver. Jan. ia paper by w. P.
Riddle, general traffic manager of the
Santa Fe System, on the relations OF
| the live stock shipper to transporta-
ton, was the opening feature of the
convention of the National Live Stock
Association this morning. Riddle was
not present and his paper was read by
Secretary Gavin of the association.
Riddles declaration was that the
grievances of the live stock men
against railroads were largely imagln-
ary and that if shippers would CONFER
personally with the responsible OH
GERS of railroads a satisfactory ad-
justment would swiftly ensue. He
claimed that many stockmen did not
fully appreciate the difficulties with
which the railroad men were COM
PEELED to contend. The stockmen, ne
said, were not all knowing any more
than the railroad man was all power
full. S. II, Cowan said that Riddles
statements on paper did not exactly
correspond with his evidence before
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
where he declared himself in favor OF
raising the rates on cattle.
Other traffic managers, he said. had
taken the same attitude as that OF
Riddle. Mr.. Butler of Idaho, ridl-
culed the assertions of Riddle to the
effect that the railroads would give
prompt redress on the presentation OF
grievances. The great complaint OF
stockmen, he said, was the delay IN
transportation and that no sat1sfac-
tion had been received after hundreds
of complaints. His declarations were
greeted with loud cheers and cries
of that's so"
Reorganization Broached.
Delatour, of Nebraska, said that the
plan of reorganization had been un-
der consideration for three days. The
stockmen had heard nothing OF 1t and
he wanted the thing brought into the
convention and settled. Vice Presl-
dent Smith explained that the COM
mittee would report as soon as posi-
BILE. Cowan declared that everybody
knew the committee would not report
in favor of reorganization and that
their report would not be adopted IT 1t
was in favor of reorganization. He
said the whole thing could be settled
in thirty minutes if the convention
could get at it. He spoke in favor OF
separate organizations. His remarks
were greeted with tumultuous ap-
plause. He moved that the committee
on reorganization be ordered to report
this afternoon or that 1t be dissolved.
The motion was unanimously carried.

$40 per head; south of the thirty-ffth

Laid Aside Today.
Washington, Jan. 12.-In order that
the appropriation bill might be pro-
ceeded with the statehood bill was
temporarily laid aside.
For the Indians.
Thus far most of the amendments
to the Hamilton joint statehood bill
which have been accepted by the Sen
ate have been those suggested by the
committee on Indian affairs. Speeches
were made by Messrs. Stewart and
Newlands, the former advocating an
for the protection of the
interests of the Indians in Indian Ter
ritory and the latter favoring the linn
itation of the area of lands to be sold
to individuals.
Mr.. Stewart presented an amend
ment providing for control of affairs
in Indian Territory by superintend-
ent to be appointed by the President
and paid a salary of $4,000 year.
He said the. Secretary of the Interior
had drafted a similar measure, and
read letter from that official saying
action of this character is necessary
to pacify the Indians. Mr.. Stewart
spoke in support of the amendment.
The committee amendments to the
statehood bill, to which there was no
objection, were accepted, but many
were passed over with the understand

Mr.. Newlands urged the amendment
Of the bill so as to prevent the mon

Peabody Will Contest.
Notice OF Former Governor James
H. Peabody's contest against Governor
Alva Adams for Office of governor was
filed with the legislature today. The
complaint sets forth the allegation
that the majority of 9,774 for Adams,
as shown on the face of the returns
as finally canvassed was obtained by
means of conspiracy in Denver and
several other counties. The legisla-
ture is asked to open the ballot boxes
from a number of precincts in Den.
yer, Adams, Las Animas, Boulder and
Conejos Counties. 1t is alleged that
the frauds in these precincts are so
extensive that true count will show
Peabody to have been elected.

COLORADO SNOW
WILL HELP HERE
Sister State Has Plenty of the Beauti.
fuI Which Will Directly Assist in
Sustaining New Mexico
Streams.

| According to the information con
tanned in the snowfall bulletin just
issued by the Colorado section of the
United States Weather Bureau, the
situation as to the water supply fol
the coming spring and summer in
southwestern Colorado and which in
fiuences the supply for northwestern
New Mexico, is quite satisfactory, as
the following extracts from the bulle
tin show:
While the snowfall over the upper
drainage areas has been lighter than
normal, the reports for the period end
ing December 31st show somewhat
better conditions as regards water sup
ply than prevailed at the correspond
ing date last year. In localities on
each watershed, embracing in all
about one-third of the mountain re-
gion, the snowfall has been normal or
above normal. as against practically
no reports year ago showing as
much as normal. This improvement
in the situation of course only rela-
tive, is most pronounced in the south
western part Of the state. In nearly
all districts, however, the rainfall of
late summer and early fall replenished
the supply of ground water, and as a
consequence springs are giving a nor
NAL flow, only to be turned into ice by
the prevailing low temperatures. The
formation of great number of ice
fields, which will probably remain un-
til after later snowfalls have melted,

MEXICAN DOLLAR
NOW OuTIAbLE

Ell Paso, Jan. 12.-The Mexican sill
yer dollar is now dutiable commodi.
ty when taken into Mexico. The GUS
tom officers are collecting a duty
which amounts to nearly twenty-five
per cent of the value of the peso. All
silver Mexican dollars taken into
Mexico are taxed with the exception
of five dollars, which are allowed
free of duty to all persons passing
through port of entry Currency is
exempt from this duty, all paper mon
ey going in free.
The Mexican government has en-.
forced this tariff law to protect itself
against an avalanche of pesos from
all over the world which would be
rushed into Mexico now that the coun-
try has adopted the gold standard and
given the silver peso staple value of
fifty cents gold.

SOLID AND SOUND
FIRST NATIONAL

At 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon oc
Cured the annual meeting of the stock
holders OF the First National Bank. Al
this session the following directors
were chosen: r. j. Palen, H. l.. Wal
do, j. G. Schumann, S. Spitz and ]
H. Vaughn. The directors then or
ganized by electing r. J. Palen, presi
dent; H. l.. Waldo, vice president. j.
H. Vaughn was reelected cashier and
e. H. Brodhead, assistant cashier
These officials are the same, with the
exception of Mr.. Brodhead, as they
have been the past year.
The First National Bank is the old
est financial institution in New Mexico
and the Southwest. Mayor Palen has
served as president since 1889 and
from 1879 to that time acted as cash
ier With the exception of three
years, during which time he was alb
sent from the Territory, Major Palen
has been connected with the bank
since 1873.
Cashier Vaughn came to the bank
twenty-four years ago as bookkeeper
He proved himself man of real worth
and was installed in his present capac-
ity, having filled the same with honor
to himself and to the institution.
Mr.. Brodhead was taken in the
banking company's employ four years
ago as bookkeeper and as assistant
cashier at present he is meeting all
the demands of the establishment in
a highly satisfactory manner, being
courteous to the general public.
President Palen is one of the best
known financiers in the west and his
very successful administration Of the
banks affairs proves conclusively that
he is the right man in the right. place.
In a bank, more than in any other busi-
ness, success can only be attained by
a very careful systematic and efficient
by the closest attention
to business, intimate knowledge of the
business men of the community and
the financial and business condition To-
cally, and in the business centers.
Major Palen is fully conversant with
all of these and hence the absolutely
safe condition of the bank, as we'll as
The very gratifying dividends to it's
stockholders. There is no better
banking institution in the southwest
at which to do business. Depositors
cannot find more reliable or better
conducted banking institution in all
his great country.

General Wynne has issued an order
