RESTORES SIGHT TO BLIND.
> Healing That is Healing, Accomplish

Healing That is Healing, Accomplish
ed by Well Known Roswell Man.
Healing the blind is not an every
day event, even in this advanced age
of wonders. but such a feat was ac-
complished within the past few days
right here in Roswell L. F. Richards,
of Hagerman, came to Roswell a
week ago totally blind. One eye had
been removed and the otner was
covered with cataract until the Wis
ion was extinct. He left last night
for his home with good vision. This
cure was accomplished by DIR. T. E.
Presley. who operated on the remain
ing eye and treated it with very
great skill.
Almost every week DR.. Presley re
stores sight to some unfortunate. His
name and fame are spreading over a
large country, and every few days
the afflicted come from all parts OF
the Territory and eastern Texas to
consult him. They not only come to
get help for eye trouble, but also ear,
nose and throat troubles, for he
makes a speciality of these lines. Con-
sequently the doctor is boon for
Roswell and the Pecos Valley. He is
a man the Valley has needed for
dealings and at the same time pos
sessed of skill in theparticular lines
upon which he operates. DR.. Presley
has been in Roswell over two years
and his skill and honest dealings with
his patients are increasing his prac
tice every month

both sides of the fight will come out
and the case will be decided upon
its merits.
According to the allegations OF
the petitioner, Mr.. Reed, Mr.. Bujac
who is Democratic candidate for del
egate to the constitutional conven
ton in Eddy county, took exceptions
to an editorial headed, "A Pig and
a Pup" which appeared recently in
the Argus, taking the reference as
personal to himself, although no
names were mentioned. 1t is further
claimed by the petitioner that Mr..
Bujac and Mr.. Brice called on Mr..
Reed at the Argus office and forced
Mr.. Reed to sign a statement that
Judge A. A. Freeman, Republican
candidate for the same Office for
which Capt. Bujac is Democratic nom
and further forced him to sign an
agreement that he would never again
use Mr.. Bujac's name, either in real
ity or in reference, in the columns of
the Argus. He states that he was
forced to sign these papers against
his will, a revolver being "in sight. -
The petitioner argues that this
means of recourse is not in keeping
with the law and that Messrs. Bujac
and Brice's methods are trampling
on the freedom of the press, and that
the press has the right to discuss
on this statement and argument that
Judge Pope granted the temporary
injunction.

GOVERNMENT ASKS FOR TIME
Y. S. Attorney Seeks Continuance in
Tallmadge Cases.-Other Cases
Come Up in Court.

The feature of today's session of
district court was a motion for a
continuance, made by Major Lelew-
ellyn United States Attorney, in
the cases against the Tallmadges and
others. The motion was made, in
verbal form, and brought out long
argument, the attorneys for the de-
fense making an effort to get the
case up for immediate trial and op-
posing the motion of Major Level
lyn. The principal reason for asking
the continuance given by the T. S.
Attorney was that the old cases tried
previously were still in supreme
court, having been taken there by
the Governments appeal, and he
wanted to await the final decision in
those cases before trying the new
ones. Judge Pope finally ruled that
the L. S. Attorney should file his
motion in written form, and gave
him until $3.50 this afternoon to pre-
pare it. Court tnen adjourned until
that hour. Other cases up for action,
and their disposal were as follows:

munds Act, nolle pros.

Communication Cut Off.
New York, Oct. 1S.-Cable commu-
nication with Havana, which was
Interrupted late last night, had not
been restored early this morning. The

heavy storm which swept over Gu

Havana operator just before commu-
nication was lost as having reached
cyclonic proportions Key West early
this morning reported that a heavy
rain and wind storm had reached the
Florida coast.
Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 1S.-There has
been no communication with Miami,
Florida, since morning. Just before
communication failed the operator
at Miami reported that there was

Give State Equal Chance.

Judge Walter H. Neal has sent
a letter to the press of the State,
in which he. says:
: "Under the law as it now exists
in this State, when a person is
charged with the commission OF
a capital criminal offense and is
placed on trial, he may challenge
peremptorily twenty three jurors
and the State can challenge only
four. From an experience in the
practice of law, and then five
years work on the bench, it is
clear to my mind that the sta
tute ought to be changed, SO that
in the trial of the offenses of
arson, rape, murder and burglary,
the four capital felonies, the
State ought to have the same
number of challenges as the pris,
oner. It is my deliberate opini.
On that this will help solve the
lynching problem"

To Which Glass do YOU Belong.

The world bestows it's big prizes
in money and honors for but one
thing-initiative. What is mi
tiative? It consists in doing the
right thing without being told.
The next hest thing to doing a
thing without being told, is to do
it when you are told once. Some
people never do a thing until they
are told twice; such get no hon.
ors and small pay. Then there
are those who do the right thing
only when necessity kicks them
from behind. This class spends
most of it's time polishing a bench
with a hard-luck story. Still
lower down in the scale is the fell
low who will not do the right
thing even when some one goes
along to show him how, and stays
to see that he does it; he is al
ways out of a job, and receives
only the contempt he deserves,
unless he has a rich pa, III which
case destiny patiently awaits

ENGINEER DEAD.
The Wound Of J. c. McLendon Proves Fa'
tai, His Last Statement.

Engineer J. G. McLendon died
at the sanitorium here Oh Friday
afternoon at 4 O'Clock. With HIM
when he breathed his last were
his wife, his brother and two SIS
ters.
It will be remembered that En-
gineer MeLendon was shot on the
night of August 9th, while the
mob was storming the jail. The
bullet entered his left thigh, pass
ing through the limb. He was
removed to the sanitorium and
an examination of his wound de-
veloped the fact that it was very
serious. but the attending physi-
clans believed there was a chance
for the unfortunate man. The
patients condition grew worse,
and amputation of the leg be-
came necessary. After the opera
ton his condition became SO seri.
Gus that it was evident his death
was only a matter of a short time.
Solicitor Hammer secured a
statement from McLendon short
ly before bis death. This was to
the effect that he was with the
crowd at the rear door of the jail
when he was shot. He denied
emphatically being one of the
mob, and said he was with the
crowd merely through curiosity.
He also said that while those neal
him were hammering on the door,
he took no part in it whatever.
He stated to the Solicitor that he
had walked from Spencer to Sal
isbury that night, not having cash
to pay car fare, that he had lost
his position as engineer but had
intended to 60 to work at the
shops the next day.
The remains we're taken to Ma
con, Ca, the former home of the
deceased, for lnterment.
