COLONEL BELTS
MAY CONTEST
For Seat in House From District Is
Mot Yet Decided-Severe Snow
Storm at Silver City.

Col. H. H. Belts, assessor of Grant
County, who was in town today from
Silver City, in answer to query from
a representative Of the New Mexican
stated Il have not yet made up my
mind whether shall or shall not ini-
tiate contest for the office of repre-
sentative from the Fifteenth House
District against DR.. M. J. Moran, who
on the face of the returns has ma
jority of 81. Should I do so one of
the reasons for bringing this contest
will be the fact that on the official bal
lot prepared by the county clerk Of
Luna County for the election on No.
vember Gth last my name was placed
under the wrong heading, namely I'm.
der the heading Of from the Seven
teenth District" when 1t should have
appeared under the heading of Eff
teenth District" This naturally lost
me votes. am informed that on a
number Of ballots the name of M. j.
Moran, my opponent, was placed over
my name under the heading Seven
teenth District. These were counted
by the judges of election in several
precincts for DR.. Moran a proceeding
which I am informed by lawyers was
illegal and should not have been
made. ] make no charge otherwise
and if there has been any fraudulent
voting in Grant or Luna county am
free to admit that do not know of it.
| personally believe that there were
none such. My own county, although
strongly Democratic gave me ma
jority of 1O1 votes; my own town. Sill.
yer City, gave me 217, although nor
Llaily Democratic. This has not given
me the swelled head, but must ad-
nit that it is very gratifying.
"You ask concerning the recent
storm: Last Sunday and Monday we
had very severe blizzard and snow
storm In our section, the most severe
that have experienced during my
residence in Silver City for twenty
years. The snow was a foot deep and
the wind was very high. 1t was also
very cold for Silver City, which as you
well know has very equable and
mild climate. The weather has not
been good all the week, but yester
day, when left It was moderating
and a telegraphic dispatch informed
me that today is right nice"

water states that his paper which
goes to dealers in hides and pelts and

culation in the southwest. He called
at the office of the Bureau of Immigra-

furnished with copies of the several
publications of the bureau. He is
very favorably impressed with New
Mexico. Concerning the proposition
by New England shoe manufacturers
that the duty should be taken from
hides, he expressed himself as much
opposed. One reason for the recent
advance IN leather and leather find
ings, is given that great deal of
these materials are needed in automo.

ALLEGED TRAIN
ROBBERS DEFENSE.
Witnesses Strong for Black Brothers
and Murphy-J. J. Thomas Not
Shaken BY Examination.

Las Vegas, N. M, Nov. 24.-The
testimony in defense of the Black
Brothers and Murphy charged with
having held up and robbed Rock
Island train near Logan, given here
yesterday was very strong and 1t
looks as though the alleged train
robbers were making much better
showing than the prosecution had
counted upon. ]. ]. Thomas who was
the first witness for the defense, was
unshaken in his testimony upon cross
examination by the prosecton. He
presented records, such as books and
checks, from the mine at Sunnysiie
which showed conclusively that the
Black Brothers and Murphy had been
at work at the mine on June 20 and
that they were also present and were
paid off on June 80, the date of the
holdup.
Mrs. Lizzie Butscher who lived in
the mining camp said that she was
in the camp and saw the defendants
leave the camp on June 80. Matte
Wilson's also resident of the camp,
Mrs. Lizzie Butscher said, had been
insuted by John Murphy and was
crying when she went to the store on
Saturday, June 30, to DO some shop
ping. This was an important fact
since it established the presence OF
Murphy in the camp on June 3d. None
of the witnesses wavered in their
testimony An attempt was made
to get Mr.. Thomas to admit that his
books might have been faulty all the
way through, because of several slight
errors found by the prosecution, but
he remained firm in his statements.
The defense will probably complete
its testimony in the Logan train rob
berry case today and the greater part
of Monday will be consumed in re-
buttal. Argument will begin either
Monday afternoon or Tuesday morn
ing.
John Black, the eldest of the two
Black brothers charged with holding
up train at Logan, went on the
stand in his own behalf this morning
He gave an account of his where
abouts for several months before and
after the train robbery and denied
positively having made any confes
sion to dee" Butler, the horse thiet
with whom he was in Jail in Chicka
saw. Indian Territory. He also denied
being with man named Markham OF
Boswell in Amarillo and said he never
saw Boswell until he met him in jail
a short time before he was killed
John Black will be under cross exam
ination the most of the afternoon and
Jim Black will probably go on next
1t is not known whether the defense
has any more witnesses or not.
