THE PRESIDENT ON RAIL
ROAD RATE LEGISLATION

President Roosevelt is said to be
going very thoroughly into the ques-
ton of railroad rate legislation and
to be devoting considerable time to
the study of this important matter.
A special dispatch from Washington
to the New York Tribune, of recent
date, has the following to say:
THE President is laboriously search
ing for facts, is consulting all manner
and kinds of authorities to get at the
bottom of the big subject before he
acts. Until n starts to find the ac-
tual true inwardness' of the railroad
business he has very little conception
Jet. To announce that the Govern
ment would ascertain the actual value
of a road with a view of squeezing
out the surplus water from its capital
ization sounds easy. But how is that
to be determined? Upon the first
cost of h construction added to he
cost of the rolling stock and equip
ment? Upon the market valuF of the
road after it has developed a wilder
ness into a populas prosperous
country? Or upon the moun of
money the road would bring under the
hammer of the auctio1eer? There are
valuations and valuations. The Pres
ident does not intend to ask for any
legislation that will brighten capital
from engaging in legitimate railroad
enterprises. The country must be de-
veloped and capital should have its
just reward. To pass legislation that
will not deter honest endeavor is
therefore quite rs important as to
have laws that will curb speculation
and end the big stock gamblings. - =
1T may be announced Upon first
rate authority that the President will
lot attempt to secure any railroad leg
islation this session. He knows that
ven under the most favorable circum-
stances such an important measur
could not be introduced, debated and
passed within FIVE weeks of the close
of Congress. AS it is now, Congress
is away behind with it's work. The
six weeks talk over Brownsville has
resulted in just six weeks postpone
ment of the Senate's legitimate bust
ness, and if the regular appropriation
bills and the much needed legislation
already agreed upon by the party lead
ers can be put through before March
4, the lawmakers may consider them
selves fortunate indeed"

"Printers pray" for Methodists.

Chicago, Feb. 6.-Printers praying
~pitously for the salvation of sinners
is the extraordinary sight to be wit
messed nightly at the Methodist revi-
val meetings which are being held in
all parts of the city this week. This
IS the latest development in the long
warfare which las been waged be-
tween the Typographical union and
the Methodist Book concern. At each
of the revival meetings two or three
union pickets are present for the pur-
pose of prayer and exhortation, in an
effort to bring the Methodist publish
ers to h mourler's bench. Invoca-
lions are offered for the conversion
of the recreaat publishing agents and
for the reinstatement of the locked
out printers by the Methodist Book
concern. The praying pickets conduct
themselves in a d%ecorous manner and
lo serious objections have been made
to their presence at the meetings Oh
to their fervent petitions il behalf of
the union.

Dispute Arose Over Questions Asked
Witness Regarding Bailey Trou-
BILE Averted by Deputy Sheriff.
Bailey Apoiogized for Action.

Austin, Tex, Feb. 5.-A dramatic
scene was enacted today in the Bailey
Investigation, shortly after the legis-
lative committee resumed considerat-
ion of the charges against the Sen
ator.
A. L. Mentz, of Houston, was upon
the stand when representative Coke
who is prosecuting the charge against
Bailey, asked Mentz if Col. Cowart, of
Dallas, went to New York to e Bal
ley while he was there, ostensibly to
have his throat treated, but really to
attend to business for the Kirby Lum-
Der Company.
Bailey arose and said anyone who
said Cowart went to New York to
meet him was a liar. The witness IN
derstood hat Bailey meant him, and
hi arose and emphatically said that
he would allow no one to caH him a
liar. Bailey arose and started for the
witness who seemed ready to meet
him. Deputy Sheriff White stopped
Bailey and trouble was averted. The
Senator then apologized to the Com
mittee and asserted he was irritated
during the past few weeks, it vas hard
to keep from denouncing what he

ers who were able to AXE care of his

AN OPERA HOUSE is
NEEDED IN ROSWELL.

One of the most crying needs in
Roswell is al opera house.. There is
not in the city n place where a
large meeting can be comfortably
held. Advance agents for theatrical
troupes have called at the Record of
fee a number of times, and inquired
for Roswell's opera house. Invariably
they have wired their companies not
to come to Roswell as there was no
accommodations here for them.
The lack of a large auditorium, for
mass meetings of political and of a
public nature, both, are always held
here under a great disadvantage.
There is no place capable of holding
such meetings as they should be held.
This is an old story, often told, but
Roswell really should wake up on this
proposition and get an opera house
and auditorium creditable to the city
we have here. Get busy.

AN ACT TO ENCOURAGE
BEET SUGAR GROWERS.

Council Bill, Number Twelve, an act
to encourage beet sugar growers il
the Territory of New Mexico. This
Act appears to be one to be encourag
ed and is of considerable local impor-
lance, as his section of the Territory
is one in which suger beets can un-
doubtedly be raised successfully. In
speaking of this bill, the Colfax Coun-
ty Stockman, says:
Council Bill Number Twelve, in
troduced in the legislature at Santa
Fe Tuesday, is a measure that should
have the approval of every citizen of
the Territory of New Mexico who has
any interests whatever. 1t is an act
entitled an act to encourage the cree
ton of sugar factories, wooden mills,
smelters and certain classes of irri-
cation projects and exempting them
from taxation for a period of six years
after completion.

ing more than right that they should
be encouraged by laws especially en-
acted for their benefit. New Mexico

tiers and it is our duty to encourage
manufacturing enterprises whereby
they can be utilized. A number of
smelters in the territory would be
profitable, with the opening up of
some localities by ditch systems LII

be successfully operated; wooden mills

is well taken and it is hoped the bill
will become a law"
