The secretary Of the democratic
county COMMITTEES, II. j. Burgess, has
got him a typewriter and puts in
plenty Of time writing to the chair
men Of the precinct committees. He
composes a letter and then gets to
work with his typewriter, and makes
a copy for each chairman, most Of the
copies being produced by the use Of
carbon sheets. OF course a general
letter does not apply to all the pre-
cincts, and Secretary Burgess occa-
sionally misses a cog. Recently he
sent out a letter to the chairmen urg-
ing on them the necessity Of seeing
that the registration was being prop
erly done In each precinct, and told
them that II they did not know who
were the members Of the boards Of
Western liberal. (Lordsburg, N.M.) 1887-1919, 1906-10-19

registration to let him know and he
would tell them. When Precinct
Chairman Ownby, Of this precinct
read the letter he was somewhat sur
prised. AS a member Of the board Of
commissioners he had helped appoint
all the boards OF registration, and ma
turally knew who we're the members
Of the board in his own precinct. He
expressed little admiration Of a Sc
cretary who would write such q let
ter, and when he found that he had
been sent a carbon copy Of a general
letter he was even more disguised.
The secretary will have a time squar-
ing himself with the chairman Of the
Lordsburg precinct.

WHEN the United States supreme
court met this week after its summer
vacation 1t handed down a number Of
decisions. One was affirming the de-
cision of the court that sent Senator
Burton to prison, another decided
that the New Mexico hide inspection
law was constitutional. The law pro-
vides that hides that are shipped out
Of the territory must be inspected.
Some Of the shippers thought this
law interferred with the interstate
commerce provision of the constitu-
tion, but the supreme court decided
that 1t was q police law, and did not
interfere with the constitution.

Some time since a number Of pas
senger conductors on this division
we're discharged from the service of
the Southern Pacific, and the reason
given them for their discharge was
that they had accepted short fares
between certain points. Some Of the
discharged men have been working to
prove that a mistake was made, and
that the detective who made the re-
port was In error as to that particular
transaction. The Liberal has it
from a man 'higher ups that the
particular transactions on which the
men were discharged were only used
as samples. The company had been
assured that the men were accepting
short fares, Sand p~ocketing the diff
ference, and had been doing so for a
long time. The company secured
evidence that not only the men dis
charged, but others, had been accept
ing short fares, and only that it was
short Of men to fill the places more
conductors would have been discharg-
ed at the same time. Under the cir
cumstances the company only dis
charged three of what were consider
ed the most fragrant cases, as an ex-
ample to the others, and these dis
charges are saidsto have worked a de-
cided increase in cash fares turned in.
Some railroad men conceive there is
a vast difference between dividing a
cash fare with a passenger and hold
ing out his portion and stealing. A
good many people can see no differ
ence between the action on the part
Of the conductor and of the passeng-
er, and that of any petty ~larcenist.
Many railroad men think the "spot-
ter" as they call him, the man who
detects them In their thieving opera.
ton, the vilest of men, but the aver
age citizen, who is not interested in
the case, sees no difference between
him and the ordinary detective, OF
sheriff or constable, who endeavors tc
discover who has committed a crime,
and they are not generally considered
bad citizens. 1t is all the way you
look at It.

New Orleans, March 21.-The VIC
tory Of the Southern Pacific over the
Gould interests in California and the
estoppal of the latter by the United
States courts from gaining terminal
facilities at Oakland across the bay
from San Francisco has more than
ever fortified the Hartman line in it's
plans for extensive Improvements
over its entire transcontinental sys-
tems-the Southern Pacific and Union
Pacific. In louisiana and Texas the
company is expending hundreds OF
thousands Of dollars in branch lines
and other physical betterments, the
chief of all being the "block system
work. much Of which has already been
installed.
It is through this block signal sys-
tenn that the danger of collisions is re-
duced practically to zero to the conse-
cuent saving OF human life and valua-
BILE property. Motor trains are now
operating on some Of the branch lines
permitting the freedom Of engines
otherwise tied up and much saving in
the cost of fuel, though the great oil
fields of Louisiana and Texas, situated
directly on the line of the Southern
Pacific, now permit minimum Of fuel
cost, beside eliminating the old time

which passengers had reason to COM
plain Of from the use Of soft coal.
