Preparing to Fight the Snow

The Southwestern shops at Alamogor-
do have been busy lately building snow
ploughs and snow fences to be used on the
line between Santa Rosa and Carrizozo.
This stretch of road is a very troublesome
one and has delayed trains from both di.
~rections a great deal for several days. The
ordinary old fashioned plough is a useless
e~xpedient in some of the deep cuts, where
the snow drifts to a depth of several feet,
and two locomotives hitched to one plough
are not powerful enough to push them
through. A few days ago an orange train
got stuck in a cut and was completely
showed under out of sight A rotary
pIoogh was brought down last week from
somewhere north and has relieved the sit
uation somewhat. The drift, though,
across the divide is very troublesome and
a cut is often filled again in a few hours
after being ploughed out.

presses the hope that the citizens of the
two territories will get along swimmingly
and forget thai there was ever a dividing
line between them.

Chicago. May 29.-Aroused by the
sensational charges against the pack
ers. emanating from the president.
the presidents commission and up
ton Sinclair. the author, representa-
tive of one of the large packing nous
es of Chicago today, for the first time
undertook the defense of the accused
interests.
The charges which have appeared
in dispatches from Washington were
taken up in detail by an official OF
Armour & Co. who said he spoke
for all of the large houses. He de-
MED practically all of the aceusa-
lions. Some. he explained. were
founded on ignorance and in others
he found material for amusement.
Taking up the charges one by one
and disposing of them this official,
who would not permit the use of his
name, said:
MIR. Sinclair. the author, whose
book dealing with the stockyards
seems to have impressed the presi-
dent and everybody else with the idea
that nothing is fit to eat that comes
out of the yards. makes all packers
look alike from failing to specify the
offenders. Consequently the innocent
and guilty must suffer alike in pub
lie oDin ion.

Immediately after the speech of
Judge Hallett. it being his farewell
talk to the bar of the city of Denver.
when The degeracy of the admins
tration OF the law was taken into ac-

the question OF the loss of confidence
which the law and lawyers had sus-
tained. in the mind of the public We
referred especially to that condition
which permitted justice being sub
versed, through some techinicality in
the pleadings, when the world at
lage knew and believed a prisoner
guilty; of the constant reversal OF
one Judge by another. until the peo-
pie had lost that confidence former
ly had in the law and its represent

As far removed as we are from the
scene OF the packing interests we
can hardly realize the stir which has
been made throughout the entire
country by the expose made through
the book OF Upton Sinclair The whole
country is up in ans and instead of
the arrogant packing barons we have
an enraged and indignant people. The
details of the expose are too horrible
to give the public. The products of
of the packing houses have been so
tainted that, It is wonder the ma
