holders and make up for the half mill
lion or more they give away IN this
State, to political and other dead beats
in free transportation But this fact Is IT,
refutable;- tnat If they cannot give low
er rates the Cantaloupe industry cannot
be maintained in this county, and the
sooner our people abandon a losing
business, the better II should be said
TO the credit OF the railroad, however,
that large part Of their freight charge
is made up Of the icing expense. A
most expensive and cumbersome plan
was followed, this year, The cars being
iced in Nashville, an extra supply Of
Ice loaded on the car TO be put in here,
then the cars we're sent here for loading,
so that double work and ice was often
required, and all this came ont of the
growers profits.
Our growers acted unwisely and we
believe lost money by binding them
selves up in a contract with a foreign
crate manufacturer when they could
have got their crates at home for less
money and saved the freight.
Another thing which has been clearly
shown, we believe, in this years results,
is that stable manure is the very best
fertilizer that can be used. The com
mercial fertilizer is expensive and not
so well adapted to the purpose.
The system of many of our growers
in trying to force the plant growth, by
hot beds, glass coverings, etc has pro-
ven an expensive failure.
Let rs profit by our failures. When
we begin to go over the list Of things
that have been proven blunders that we
have done and then think that our
growers have done reasonably we'll in
spite of all of them, we cannot help
but conclude that if we will correct
these mistakes next year, the results
will prove that there is big money in
cantaloupes for the growers as we'll as
for the railroads and managers.

Go nIittGG
Makes Nomination. An lnde.
pendent Candidate.

On last Wednesday the State Demo.
cratic Executive Committee met for the
purpose Of providing for filling the w
cancy on the ticket created by the death
Of Mr.. Mckenzie. On Tuesday il was
given out that the Committee would
not attempt TO nominate at this meeting,
as no auihirity for doing 50 had ever
been granted them aud such course
was without precedent.lt was announced
that either convention would be called,
or the Committee would take the matter
up at later meeting, so that ample
time might be given all candidates 10
present their claims. When Committee
met, however, after a secret session, il
was announced that all candidates ex-
cept one having agreed to accept the
Committee verdict, they would proceed
Immediately to make a nomination.
After four ballots Frank Ayent,
of Rutherford, at present Secretary Of
the Commission was nominated.
Hon. ". p Mcclure, of Marshal,
who refused 10 submit his candidacy 10
to the Committee announced that he
would be in the race uuti its close, and
would stump the State in opposition to
the "Snap action" of the Committee.
1t was reported that he had made an
agreement with the Republicans for
help in | is candidacy This he denies
in an interview.
The statement that agreed to make.

port of the Rebublcans, is unqualifedly
false. | have never said that | would

ment that ! would submit my claims to
Democratic Convention, but denied
that the State Committee had the right
to nominate a candidate. reiterate
that statement, and am ready now to
submit my candidacy to Democratic
Convention. / deny that the committee
had any authority to nominated candi
date. therefore | am as much a Dem
ocratic candidate the gentleman Sc
lected by the committee
81 do not believe that the Democrats
ic nominee for Goveror will approve of
the courae adopted by the committee, or
of any other snap or machine action
| have never mentioned my candidacy
to any Republican, nor have l author
lied any one to do so for me, and the
very best evidence of the fact that
am not an independent candidate for
office is that the Banner is not now sup
porting me. Unless the committee
deems it proper to give the people an
opportunity to express their preference
for Railroad Commissioner in the time
honored Democratic way, shall present
my claims to the people on the stump
from now until the day of the election"

Unfortunate
Fracas Between JeweIer and

A difficulty occurred Wednesday
morning between Officer Felcker and
Mr.. r. b Robertson, the Jeweler, in
which the latter was reported to have
been rather severely clutbed so that
he has beeu confined to his bed since,
and fracture of the skull is feared
There are so many conflicting reports
regarding the details Of the trouble,
that the Democrat cannot undertake to
give them, nor express an opinion as to
where the blame lies, if there is any
Suffice it to sag that the affair is unfor-
innate, and if the officer has abused
his powers and himself transgressed
the law, he can be punished just like
the poorest man in The State, but he is
entitled to the presumption Of innocence
until his guilt il proven, and ought to
have the backing of all good citizens
in every effort to preserve the peace and
good order Of the town. Let it be un-
derstood that our. people are standing
solidly in support Of the officer as lpng
as he obeys the law, and will rs prompt
ly punish him for its transgression, and
the effect will be salutary on both citi-
zea and official, and work to the good

ARIZONA INVALID
ENDS HIS LIFE
BY Taking Morphine--t4ad Just Bath
ed and Died Before Clothing
Himself.

Phoenix, Ariz., July 2S.--Despond
ency over continued Ill health Is SAID
to have been the cause Of the suicide
Of H. H. Hill, who ended his life by
the morphine route few days ago In
Phoenix. He was found in an uncon-
scious condition in bath room at
the Denver lodging house. A physician
worked over him an hour in an effort
to resuscitate the victim but death en-
sued In spite of the efforts of the doc
tor.
Hill had evidently just finished TAX
ing bath as the tub showed signs
of having been used and when dis
covered he did not have any clothing
on. Lying beside the naked body was
an empty bottle of morphine. Hill
had been suffering for long time
with catarrh of the stomach which
had lately given him a great deal of
pain. An inquest was held over the
remains and a verdict Of suicide re-
turned by the coroner's jury.

greatly exaggerated and highly sensa-
tional accounts of the recent earth
quakes in Socorro and the fearful (?)
damage done by the disturbances,
which have been telegraphed from AL.
buquerque and Ell Paso east, have
done Socorro great harm and that it
will take much work to counteract

ANNUAL MEETING
BOARD OF TRADE
Last Might. Bradford Prince Una.
nrnously Reelected President
Other Officers.

The annual meeting OF the Santa Fe
Board of Trade was held last evening
In the Offices of the Santa Fe Water
and Light Company. Honorable L.
Bradford Prince presided and William
c. Schuepple was at his post as secre-
tary. Considerable interest developed
with the reading of the annual reports
after which officers were elected for
the ensuing year.
Under the head of reports, atten-
tion was drawn to the very satisfact.
ory work Of the organization in having
the double row of shade trees planted
and boxed on Don Gaspar avenue from
Water street to the stone bridge
across the Santa Fe River. Besides
It's own Importance this presents an
object lesson which Is expected to
bear fruit in the near future in many
parts of the city.
Treasurer j. G. Schumann who has
charge Of the fund subscribed toward
the purchase of the property on FEEDER
al Park for the Presbyterian school,
made report which showed that ov.
er $3.50 had already been collected of
the 81 900 promised for that purpose.
1t will all be forthcoming when need
ed.
The desirability Of having a build
ing as the center of the activities of
the board, like a number of the boards
Of trade and commercial clubs in 9th
er cities, was discussed informally.
While all present signified themselves
as favoring the plan it was deemed
inexpedient to attempt to interest the
citizens in any other public buildings
until after the erection of the Elks'
Hail.
The board had its attention called
to the dangerous condition Of the
bridge over the acequia which crosses
Hancock Street at De Vargas Street.
The secretary was requested to com
municate with the proper authorities
and to ask to have it repaired I'M
mediately before anybody is hurt.
Various plans for the improvement
and increased prosperity of the city
we're suggested and met with general
approval. Some of them will no doubt
be put into practical form at the
next meeting of the organization in
August.
Before the election Of officers, Presi
dent Prince declined reelection on
the ground that change would bring
more life and activity into the organf-
zation but the members of the
board insisted upon his continuing In
office and he was accordingly una
nimously reelected to the presidency.
The other officers were reelected,
William C. Schuepple as secretary

The following compose the board OF
directors: Hon. l.. Bradford Prince,

the Frenchmen to cease firing but be-

CONVICTION DISTRICT
COURT SUSTAINED
In Case of Mariana r. Sena--Judqe
Phillips So Decided Re.
Gently.

The dispatch published Thursday
last by the New Mexican, taken from
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat regard
ing the appeal of Mariana f. Sena in
the U. s. Court of Appeals, for the
Sth circuit, contained statement that
the court had dismissed the case and
that, therefore, Sena would not be
compelled to serve the sentence of
four years and four days imposed up
on him by the court of the First Ju-
dicial District upon trial and convic-
tion under indictments charging him
with forgery while clerk of the census
supervisor for New Mexico in 1900 and
1901. Correct information is to the
effect that Judge Phillips dismissed
the appeal in the case, but not the
case itself and that the latter was re-
manded to the supreme court of the
Territory of New Mexico for the nee.
essary proceedings for the execution
of the sentence. The territorial SUI
preme court at its meeting in August
will issue an order accordingly and ex-
ecution q the sentence will then CON-
mence. The appeal having been dis.
missed, Judge Phillips declined to
hear the case on its merits, which ac-
tion dismissed the writ of error and
leaves the case as it originally was in
the district court, wherein the trial
and conviction were had. The action
of the district court was not reviewed
in either the territorial supreme court
or in the court of appeals, although
the territorial supreme court found
that there was no error in the original
proceedings.
