and most important steps toward
a~bolishing licensed gambling and
raising saloon licenses not only thru
out New Mexico, but in Arizona as
well.
A defect was discovered in the first
ordinance passed, and several months
a~fterward, just before it should have
gone into effect a new ordinance was
prepared and passed. The men who
voted for this ordinance were: Burns,
Brooks, Johnson, Kinsinger, Ogle, u

Shortly after consulting with Mayor

ton. believing that a communication
from n of his standing as a business
man would bring results quicker than
treating the subject from a moral or
academic standpoint. So many people

began to happen. The Record no long

So says President Roosevelt, ac-
cording to a Washington special to
the New York Press, repeated to the
Denver News. The dispatch, while
decidedly sensational in character. is
circumspect in all its statements, and
bears throughout IN appearance of
being literal truth. 1t relates to he
preliminaries leading up to the con-
fereace announced between the Pres
ident and certain prominent railway
men, going to snow how it was
brought about:
After obtaining a date from the
President Mr.. Morgan called at the
White House and had a lengthy con-
versatioa with Mr.. Roosevelt, going
over tine whole railway situation. At
this meeting, says the dispatch. Mr..
Morgan assured the President that
the wiser presidents of the roads
were sensible of the fact that they
were the creatures, not the masters,
OF the government. He declared that
they were willing to show taat they
were amenable to reason n would
be glad to come to an understanding
by which they could seek to satisfy
the President and the country of
their purpose to obey the law 4
fulfill other conditions of good citi-
zens.
President Roosevelt answered that
this was not enough.
What is the matter, men ?" asked
Morgan.
Hartman" answered Roosevelt,
grimly. He has no conception of
what is lawful and what is unlawful.
He has a lawless nature. He has
no moral sense. He is a menace to
this country. He is a disgrace to the
institution of railways. He is a stig-
ma upon those railway men aid bank
ers who tolerate and condone and
help him. Hartman doen't know how
to come within the law; he has got to
go. The government proposes to fol-
low him up and expose mis- dealings
and practices against public morality
and business decency until 1t viii be
impossible for him to stand up long
err against the storm of public opinion
that will overwhelm him."
Morgan warned the president that
a continuation of the onslaught that
was being made against the railroads
would destroy their market values.
cause q panic and perhaps bring ruin
on the Whole country. Roosevelt re-
piled that he had nc such fear for the
safety of the country merely through
assuring il OF its rights m protect
rag the interests Of dts people; that
he could not alter eis determination
to do his duty n

cial leaders, Other consultations
