A man from Amarillo reports that
the mud is so bad there that the
enterprising merchant has secured
a concession from the railroad com
pany to sell nip boots at the station
to parties arriving from distant
points. This at least is worse than
the situation in Roswell. Here we
have sidewalks and the hacks have
not yet been forced to abandon the
streets.

TEDDY POkES BIG STICK
IN A HORNETS NEST.

Chicago, Dec. IA dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington says:
If President Roosevelt and Secretary
Root persist in the position they
seem inclined to take regarding the
right of the Federal government to
make treaties which will bind the
states and municipalities in the con-
duct of their local affairs, a half
dozen able-bodie1 hornets nests in
the senate will break loose early in
the session. Senator Flint and Ben
jamin Ide Waeeler, both of Califor
mia, called at the White House yes
terday to see the President and to
advise with him from different points
of view that interference by the
Federal government or any assump-
tion of right to interfere with the
school system of San Francisco or
any other city would provoke riots.
Senator Flint declared that the gov
ernment would make a great mistake
because there was a disposition in
San Francisco to pass a local ordi-
nance limiting the age at which pu-
pills may enter school.
Secretary Metcalf has come back
FROM the coast intimating that any
attempt by the U. S. government, by
treaty or otherwise, to regulate the
schools of any city on the Pacific
Coast would be instantly resented,
and could be enforced only by the
use of troops. To complicate matters
Southern senators are arriving i'm
Washington in a perfect flame of ex-
citement. because they have been
led to believe that the Japanese agi-
tation in San Francisco is merely a
decoy for an attempt to break down
the whole system of separate schools
for negroes in the Southern states
So far as the intention of the admin
istration is concerned, the Southern
senators are entirely mistaken, be-
cause the President and Secretary
Root have nothing more in view
than the maintenance of friendly re-
latiOns with Japan. While the admin
istration must be acquitted of any
intention to apply its theories to the
negro question, II IS none the less
true that the two situations are very
closely connected, so that if the Jap
anese by the power of the United
States can be put in the public
schools in San Francisco in spite of
the local laws, the full-blooded negro |
with a certificate of citizenship from
any foreign country, and there are
Thousands of such, could be forced
into any white school in the South.
English Government Interested.
London, Dec. President Roose
velt's solution of the problem arising |
from the anti-Japanese rule of the |
San Francisco public schools is |
awaited with the greatest interest |
and some anxiety here. London pa
pers are being regaled with sensa-
tional statements made by recent ar
rivals on the Pacific coast from the
Far East, suggesting possibilities of
grave complications. and even warJ
The forthcoming Presidential mes
sage to congress, therefore is watch |
ed for with even greater interest |
than usual.

months. He went out with a herd of
sheep on Sunday morning, two weeks
ago, the day the big snow began.
As he did not return the following
day, Mr.. Hall went out to nunt him.
He found the sheep, but the boy was
| missing. Although he is not here to
give his story, it is supposed that
Mr.. Hall acted on the theory that
the young man mad found shelter at
some ranch. AT any rate nothing was
done, so far as can be learned, toward
hunting for the boy until Thursday
of this week, when some of the Barry
men and some of Mr.. Halls outfit or
of his men found the body Thursday
afternoon at a point six miles this
side of the Bar-V ranch. The boys
face had been eaten off by coyotes,
but the body was recognized by the
clothing. 1t was not disturbed until
the justice of the peace in that dis
trict was notified and an inquest
held. The boy was frozen to death at
the place where the sheep camped
the first night.
Allie Doris had lived in Roswell
with his parents about nine years.
His father has been in the employ
of J. A. Manning for some time and
is still working for him at Carlsbad.
Funeral arrangements will be made
when the father arrives with the bo-
DIV ami buria1 will he made in the
South Side Cemetery.
r Walter Long came in last night
from his ranch at Ell Yeso, and re
ports that he has had nerder, one
Serapio, with 1875 sheep missing
since the storm. Inasmuch as neither
the sheep nor the herder nave been
found, it is thought probable that all
are safe, and merely strayed.

Old Order ReScinded.

Heretofore an order of the county
court has been in force to the effect that
all claims of Benton county road super
visors must be published in a newspaper
for three consecutive issues of said paper
before the court would allow the claim.
This was done in order that residents of
the various districts might report discrep-
ancies in the claims of the supervisors
should any exist.
The new court, considering the fact
that the various supervisors are under
bonds and make oath to their claims,
and that the matter of publishing said
claims is an additional and unnecessary
expense to the county, have resciHded
the old order and hereafter will assume
the responsibility of paying these claims
as per law required. An order to this
effect was made at the last meeting of
the county court.

Improving Stage.

Theatre-goers will be surprised on vis-

is opened to the public on the appear
ance of the first attraction next fall.
Frank Groves, manager of the opera
house, is spending quite bit of money
in having new scenery painted.
The main drop curtain will prove a
revelation. All remember the old cur
tain, which was good-the new one is
far finer and more attractive. J. M.
Deeds, of Eugene, painted the old cur
tain two or three years ago and he is the
artist at present engaged. The new drop
curtain is completed and the scene rep
resented is Mt Rainier from Lost Lake
it is beautiful and silent testimonial to
the ability of Mr.. Reeds.
In addition to the aforementioned
curtain Mr.. Deeds will paint the grand
drsperies and tormentors. He expects
to complete the task by the last of the
week. In this connection it is proper to
state that Mr.. Groves will book only first
class attractions for the coming season.
Nearly all his bookings will be eastern
talent.
