valued at $4,000, will be dumped
into the sewer by a brewing COM

unless a special dispensation be
granted and the brewery allowed
to ship it out Of the state and sell
it. The big brewery, built at a cost
of $500, 900 five years ago, will be

Exciting Runaway.

An exciting runaway occurred on
Wednesday noon, causing quite a rush
towards Fifth Street on the part of the
populace. DR.. Romero had just enter
ed his buggy preparatory to making
number of professional calls, when up
on starting one Of the lines broke and
the team started. Realizing that he
could not stop them, he jumped out.
The team continued south on Fifth
street which was full of teams and wa
gons. How the runaways missed all the
rigs is a miracle. One of the Nisbett's
followed the team, which he overlook
and caught about six miles south of
town. Very little damage was done.

Warning to the Boys.

Mounted Policeman Meyer has asked
us to warn all persons, especially the
boys from shooting in the Park or any
place about town. For several days he
has warned number of boys, who have
been in the habit of shooting around
the spring and the old adobe nearby,
but says that if warning will not suffice,
he will use stronger measures. So un-
less some of the boys want to face His
Honor, Judge Nisbett, and help sup
port our schools by paying neat fine,
they had better take warning. 1t is a
dangerous practice and Mr.. Meyer has
said he will see that it is stopped.

Will CELEBRATE
THE FOURTH
Commercial Club Starts Celebration. Also
Prepares to Arrange for Torrance
County Fair.

The Estancia Commercial Club held
a busy session on Tuesday afternoon,
the regular time of the meeting Sew
eral new names were added to the list
of membership. Our business men, al
most without exception recognizing that
it is better to be booster than knock
er, are falling into line.
The matter of celebrating the Fourth
Of July in fitting manner was discus
sed and a committee named to secure
permission to use the Park and solicit
the necessary expenses. Good speak
ing will be part of the program, with
an old-fashioned basket dinner on the
grounds. Of course there will be fire
works galore, and these will be confn-
ed as much as possible to the enclosure
of the park, eliminating as far as pos
sible the danger of fire from this source
Everybody and their neighbors will be
invited to bring their lunch baskets and
picnic under the old trees at the spring.
The matter of holding a Torrance
County Fair next fall also received its
share Of attention, it being the unani-
nous vote Of the Club that we must
have Fair, and that it must be top
notcher. With q prosperous year be-
fore US, more people in the valley chan
ever before, and finer and more stock
and horses than ever before, there
should be no difficulty in pushing this
to a successful issue. The Fair viii
probably be pulled off the week preced
ing the Territorial Fair at Albuquerque,
so that display of our products may
be exhibited there as we'll. There viii
be an immense amount of work to be
done before the dates set, but by start
ing early and all working together, this
will not fall hard on anyone. Boost fol

Is There Hnything in 10?

A. S. Barney, the jovial Travelling
Freight and Passenger Agent of the
D. & R. G. was in towu Tuesday, hav-
ing arrived from the Capital City on

DELEGATE to Congress Andrews in the
Ancient City on Monday last when the
hardworking delegate was met at the
depot by a brass band, accompanied by
three carriages in which were thirteen
ofice-holders and ofice-soekers, and
no more, and to further quote Mr.. Bar
ney, "even the boys refused to follow
the band" 1t is strange that all those
veterans for whom pensions have been
secured during the recent months,
should be SO forgetful at this time and
not turn out en- massa to meet the con-
ouering hero. We believe we coulC
have found thirteen or perhaps ever
twentv-three in Estancia to meet the
returning delegate at the train. But

Offenders Liable to Either Fine or lmpris0n

in Settlements.

"Gun toting has been placed for
some time under the ban in New MeXi-
co and the law enacted by the recent
territorial legislature will doubtless
serve to make it more unpopular than
ever.
Section 18, chapter 36, Of the session
laws of 1907, which refers to the car
rying of deadly weapons makes it an
offense punishable by both fine and i'm
prisonment. The statute is as follows:
"Any person who will carry deadly
weapon either concealed or otherwise in
or about the settlemento of this territory,

The chief boosters are the plain

practically worked out results that
show for themselves, aided by scien-

our western agricultural colleges. The
work of these agencies has been sup

forelock and has spread abroad the facts
presented by the plodding farmer and
the scientific professor. The greatest

WHTER SUPPLY
ON CUTOFF
Railroad Men Inspect Water Supply and plan
to Make Stringent Test as to Real
Strength Of Same.

The special train on the Cutoff car
rying A. T. & S. F. brass collars spent
a day and night at Willard recently,
inspecting the water conditions.
Steam and compressed air pumps have
been ordered to test the wells, and the
rigging is being placed in position pre-
paratory to receiving the machinery
The wells are to be tested to their full
est capacity. Each Of the sixteen
wells was tested when completed,
showing 100 gallons minute without
affecting the supply. The compressed
air plant has a capacity sufficient to
throw a ten inch stream of water from
each we'll at the same time, if the
wells are sufficiently strong. In the
deep well here a 230 foot vein of water
was found.
The test is for the purpose of deter
mining the fullest capacity of the six
teen wells, after which the company
will decide definitely upon a plan for
providing the Cutoff with water. The
wells at Sunnyside east of the Pecos
river, have gone dry, and the attempt
to find water at Abo has proved fail
ure. The saltiest water on the line
was found at Abo at a depth of about
100 feet. The company found a sup
ply of good water at Sunnyside, but
the wells went dry a few days ago,
and the Lantry-Sharp company is now
hauling water from Willard to Sunny
side for use in construction work.
It is quite evident that Willard will
be depended upon to furnish water for
the entire Belen Cut off. Whether the
water will be pumped east or west
from this point is problem yet to be
solved. The construction of a pipe
line from Willard west to Belen anC
from Willard east to Sunnyside tC
Cloves, and the installation of the
main pumping plant and subsidiary
stations, is an undertaking that will
/ require several years to complete, anC
will cost many hundreds of dollars
In the meanwhile water must be pro
vided for the operations of trains, as
it is expected that the line will b.
ready for through traffic some time
this summer. To provide temporar,
water supply until the problem of ;
permanent supply is settled, cistern
Of capacity of one million gallon
each at watering stations are unde
consideration. These will be file
from water trains running from VIII
lard. Plans have been drawn for
loading device, whereby train o
eighteen cars can be filled with waite
in. two minutes time.

WOULD FREE FiLIPlNos
Anti-Imperialists Against Retention Of
Islands.

Islands.
Boston, July 10.-The Anti-Imperial-
fist League made an appeal for action
against the continued and indefinite
retention of the Philippine Islands. 3"
The appeal says in part;
"Tbe immense and improbable bur
den of these possessions has never
been felt more strongly than today.
but, in the popular apprehension that
the United States might have become
involved in war it is now realized
that their defense would demand an
almost impossible military and naval
force on the other side of the globe.
The absurdity of an enormous sacri-
fee of life and treasure to defend a
territory whose inhabitants are discon-
tented with their relation to the United
States, a relationship which is de-
plored by the great majority of our
own liberty loving citizens, has become
patent. A sale to Japan has been sug-
gested in many quarters as a method
IF escaping from the dilemma. But to
sell 100000 people and their homes /
to any one is clearly immoral and con-
trary to American principles.
"There is one simple. just and prac
tical method of relief for both coun-
tries. which we urge with renewed en-
phasis, viz; A pledge of early and
complete independence to the Philip
mines. together with a naturalization
by all the great powers, including ia
pan. 1t is clearly demonstrated that
there is a large and influential class
of educated Filipinos who are able to
guide their fellow citizens in self-gov-
ernment"

A HUGE NAVAL

tleship feet, is regarded here as hav-
ing been overlooked in the comment
which has since been INDUCED in on
Doth continents. Admiral Brownson
came to Oyster Bay to take lunch with
the president, protesting entire ignor-
anee OF the manOeuvre plans. When he
left Sycamore Hill the admiral had one
thought which he wished emphasized
that it was desirable and important
to demonstrate to the world how
quickly the American navy could trans
Ter its fighting strength from one ocean
to the other This was distinctly an
addition to the presidents previous
statement, issued through Secretary
Loeb, wherein the object Of the ma
noeuvres was said to be an exercise
movement for the benefit of the navy,
to perfect itos training in feet exer.
else on an extended scale, the purpose
and effect of the plan being for the
benefit of the navy alone.
In everything that has come from the
President regarding the movement. II
has been indicated that the fleet,
wherever It may go, is to be brought
back to the Atlantic, and that the re-
turn is to be as much a demonstra-
ton of speed as the outward journey.
While it is asserted with all possible
emphasis that there is no foundation
for apprehension of trouble, immediate
or future, between the United States
and Japan, the proposed demonstra-
tion with the feet can be looked upon
in no other light than that President
Roosevelt intends to use the American
navy for exactly that purpose for
which he has advocated its augmenta-
tion-a guarantee of international
peace.
