ness was asked if he had not testified
at the first trial in November, 1908
that after he had walked north he
heard some profane language shortly
before the fatal snot was fired but
could not state what was said. He re-
piled that he could not remember. He
was read, questions and answers from
the record of the former trial where
he stated that he did not remember
the words that were said just before
the fatal shot was fired, but that the
language was loud and profane. Wit
ness could not state why ne could re-
member now what was said five
years after the killing, better than he
could remember in November, 1908,
two years after the killing. In an
swer to the question as to whether or
not he had made these statements at
the former trial he replied that he
supposed that it was mis- statement as
that was the court record. When
pressed for a reason for his better
memory now he stated that he must
have been ''hurrahed" at the former
trial and forgot the language Wit
ness made demonstra ton of the stand

he had come here from Roby, Texas

nee who was elected at the last eiec-
tioa for sheriff, is untrue.
| participated in the Democratic pri
mary and voted for a man who did
not receive the nomination. Howev-
er, this did not cause me to hesitate
in voting for Tobe Odem, the Demo
cratic nominee. | voted for all nom
inees chosen at the Democratic pri-
mary. l did not vote for Woodruff,
and no man dare face me and say
that | did. I am a Democrat dyed in

ed by parties who desire to do me

for sheriff of Chaves county on the

''The disclosures about beef and
other packing house products now be-
ing exploited are no news to me. 1
knew it seven years ago. I told what
taken up at that time thousands of
lives would have been saved. The
adulteration of food products is the
colossal crime of the times
The foregoing statement was made
last night by Lieutenant General Mel
son A. Miles, retired former eomman-
der of the United States Army Gen.
Miles did not speak boastfully or ex-
citedly His tone was matter of fact
and his manner calm and unruff1ed.
He was at the Midland hotel and is
on his way to Boulder, Colo, to de-
liver an address before a commence

beef during the Spanish-American
war l found that poisons were being
used to preserve meat" he continued.
My first intimation of the practice
came to me in reports from command

the War Department, and a white
washing investigation was instituted
and successfully carried out. The Of
fetal report was that a colossal er-

fact, it was colossal fraud, and the
persons who perpetrated it and were
interested in it should have been

Bad Meat Killed Soldiers.

soldiers lost their lives because of
There is no way of estimating the
number of soldiers whose health was
ruined by eating impure food I know
only of its harvest among the sol
diers, and can only guess how many
lives it has cost the republic.
1.-The acids used to preserve meat
are a slow poison Watch the army
of pale, wan, saFlow workmen as they
pass and you may see the results of
preserved meat and adulterated food
products. In the congested tenement
districts of the big cities, watch the
weak, pale faced children who are
living on this food, innocently. and
you will see how the slow poison is
gradually sapping their vitality.
