Charged With EmbezzIement.

John w. Harrison, who has beer
living near here for the past 5 years,
and is well known in Roswell has
been taken back to Robinson coun-
ty, Texas, to face the charge of en-
bezzling $500. Harrison has beer
employed by w. H. Long on the ranch
west of Roswell for several years
and he was apprehended there last
week by policeman w. l.. Ray, assist
ed by Russell Loveless. Mr.. Ray took
the prisoner to Duran, New Mexico
and turned him over to William Rush
ing sheriff of Robinson county, Texas
and the prisoner was taken from that
point to the scene of his crime. He
admitted his guilt and was willing to
return to Texas without requisition
papers.

New Mexico Mining.

Though the wealth of the Pecos
Valley lies in agriculture, mining is
one of the most important interests
of the Territory at large. A rich min
ing district lies in the county adjoin-
ing us, Lincoln. Gold was discovered
in this county at Noga1 in 1865. and
mines have been more or less sue
cessfully operated in the vicinity of
Nogal Peak ever since. Systematic
mining and milling has been done
there, however, mainly in the past
ten or fifteen years. Some of the most
valuable mines in h Rocky noun
tains are located there. A Roswell
company has recently come into pos
session of a group of seven claims
there, and is preparing for active de
velopment work, some ore having al
ready been taken put of two of the
claims which are now ready for pat
ent. The recent reports of activity in
the Nogal district naturally have spe-
cial interest in Roswell.

The sixteenth annual reunion of
the United Confederate Veterans will
be held in the city of New Orleans,
longing of the gallant remnants of
the Confederate armies to meet each
other. and the innumerable attrac-
ions of New Orleans with it's old
time streets, antique buildings, etc,
and the exceedingly low rates made
by the railroads, will cause this to

THIS IS TO THE POINT

To My Friends of Imperial Valley:
 I would like to say l only learned that the Chairman had included me with E the other spe akers for the different towns of your Valley after I had made previous Engagements in a diff ferent part of the county. More over, l had just spent two weeks among you and felt it would be impossible for me to break other engagements. This is a large large county and one can not very we'll make the same place twice.
 I now again, as l have done all along in this campaign, brand my opponent as being the South ern Pacific Railroad candidate, controlled by boss rule. 1 have asked him personally to meet me on the stump and answer these matters, which he has refused to do.
 am in favor of a three cent passenger rate on all railroads, spurs or branch roads, and a great reduction on local freight rates.
 1 favor the election of U. S. Senators by direct vote of the people. I favor a school book law making every school in the state use the same series of books and that the state print them and sell to the people at cost.
 further favor a more econom- ical administration of legislative business than we have had in the past. also favor a law permit ting a division in a county where it extends thirty-five miles or more from the cOunty-seat and

Frank H. Dixon, Democratic nominee for tax collector, spent the past week in the Valley mak- ing his canvass. MT. Dixon or ''Dick" as he is affectionately called by his host of friends, is making winning fight against the present encumbent, A. F. Cornell. While his genial per sonality and affable manners are sufficient to attract support to MT. Dixon, agood reason for sup porting him is found in the fact that his opponent has been in the office for seventeen years and is now asking for four years more. We hold that MT. Cornell has had it long enough. The people should make him turn loose and give good man chance. Vote for Dixon and discourage the ringers"

Their Head lawyer Visits Intake

William F.

people were given another oppor-
 tuuity to vote upon the question
 with the result that several pre- ciucts were added to the dry list.
 The Supervisors have again decided to submit the matter to
 popular vote and have included
 it iu tue election proclamation.
 This section appears just after the Constitutional amendments in the election proclamation and evidently has been overlooked by good many people, as a number of inquiries have come to the Auti-Saloon League office, asking if the Supervisors had decided to submit the question this year. The attention of the voters in the county precincts is therefore called to this section of the cleo tiau proclamation, which reads as follows:
 ''The Board of Supervisors also submits to the voters of each of the precincts within the county entirely outside of the incorpora- ted cities and towns, the question to be voted upon at said election. under any ordinance which is now or may hereafter be in force within the county, pro- all persons from engag- ing i'll carrying on within the said county, the business of sell ing intoxicating liquors without a license. a saloon license shall be granted within such precinct. The ballots used at said election shall contain the words, FOR s A l. DON L 1 c E N s F and AGAINST SALOON LICENSE' l
 The vote upon said question so shall be indicated, the election conducted and returns canvassed in all respects as pro- vided by law for the conducting of general elections and canvass ing returns thereof"
 Every voter should pay especl- al attention to this matter and be sure to stamp his cross i'll the square opposite Against Saloon License. Imperial Valley has al- ways outlawed the saloon and the iquor seller and good people ev- point to our Valley with pride on that account. Let there be no 4lessening of the:., sen i iment, but make the majority ;frOnoer than ever.

" Editor Chronicles:
 The Imperial Valley PRESS of recent date contained a slurrlng article which indirectly accused James B. Hoffman, justice of the peace of the Calexico township, as being in league with the Blind Pigs.
 Il wish to say on behalf of Mir Hoffman. that l have been con- stable under him for the past two years. and to my personal know ledge during that time, Mir. Hoff- man has had no opportunity to demonstrate what he would do against the Blind Pigs.
 The only case that has ever come before MT. Hoffman was during last Presidential election, nearly two years ago, when M. B. Davis was defendant. One wit ness swore that he dunk soda water In the defendants place of business. The complaining wit ness testified that 1t was whisky. The defendant testified that 1t was not whisky. Under the clrcum- stances Judge Hoffman was com pelled to dismiss the case and discharge the defendant as not guilty.
 Yours, for right and justice,
 I'M. H. McALMoND, Constable. The above communication ap 'eared in last weeks issue of tn >alexico Cronicle, and we give i pace for the purpose of offering few comments. Whilesthe let CT leaves little to be said, it oc urs to us that the fact that sev ral "blind pigs" have run wid' pon in Calexico for two year ears past, without any complain r prosecution, is notable mat CT. Such things do not natur lily occur in a lava biding com 1unity, so when they do occur S in this case, there must be :; eason.
