but it was amended in the house so
as to provide for the appointment of
county commissioners by he other
members of the board. and upon that
provision the governor based his veto
That the grounds for the veto were
well taken is best shown by the fact
hat the bill was again introduced by
Martinez in the council and the house
din not attempt an amendment this
time. This bill restore to the coun-
ty commissioners the power to fill all
vacancies in county offices, but COM
missioaers will be named by the gov
ernor as always has e the cas- in
New Mexico.
Miera, of Sandoval county, has in
troduced a bill for the regulation of
the mounted police force. which in
creases salaries and is looked upon
with favor. by those interested in this
highly efficient force of peace officers
1t is generally recognized that this
force had done great good in New Me
leo. and should be encouraged TO in
crease it's efficiency.
Miera has also introduced a bill to
place his county in the first district
for district attorneys purposes. 1t is
well understood that the leaders in
county do not like h present district
attorney, but as it appears that there
is no hope of any changes this course
has been taken, The passage of the
bill will put Sandoval county il with
Rio Arriba. instead of Ber7alillO, as
at present. When the fight over the
district attorney bill first came up it
was understood that there would be
a change of district attorneys for Ber-
nalillo county. in case the bill passed
but it is now known that the men be-
him the bill do not care anything
about the man, and are willing that
the councilman from that district
name the man, which would mean the
retention of Clancy, if that official de
sired a re-appointment. AS soon as
his condition was realized the lead
ers of Sandoval county got busy in
an effort to change their district.
A bill has been introduced to re
peal the exemption granted railroads
building in this territory. under which
they escaped taxation for six years.
1t will probably pass.
The bill to assist beet sugar fac
tories and other industries by giving
them tax exemptions will probably
pass the legislature, and becom a
law.
The council has been working hard
on a new revenue law, which is gener-
ally regarded as a good one with the
exception of the provision under

county in which the owners resides,

The only anti-administration bill
now before the Legislature is the dis
trict attorney bill, and that is stalled
in the council. with no immediate
prospect of a change. 1t was reported
the first of the week that the neces-
sary votes had been secured, and
some encouragement was give the ru-
NOR by the appointment of two addi-
tional members to the committee on
Judiciary. Miera and Martinez were
named and both are strongly in favor
of the bill as it now stands. Since the
change in the committee there has
been no move.
According to the canvass of your
correspondent the vote on that bill
still stands Z to 5 in favor of it's pas
sage. and the regulars need one more
vote as it must be passed over a
veto and that requires eight votes.
The friends of Governor Hagerman
claim to have at least six votes
against the bill, and that the recent
move in enlarging the committee on
judiciary was because it became nee

The speech made by President
Roosevelt Saturday at h Harvard
Union at Cambridge, was received too
late for publication in Saturdays Dali

things that render the late of deliv-

portion of it was devoted to athletics

into the practical things of life which
one has to fight for. The Record
gives a few characteristic extracts
from the address:
You here when you graduate will
AXE up many different kinds of work,
but there is one work in which all
of you should take part simply as
good American citizens, and that is
the work of self-government. Re-

hold office. 1t means to take an in
telligent, disinterested and practical
part in the everyday duties of the
average citizen, of the citizen who is
not a faddiSt or a doctrinaire, but who
,abhors corruption and dislikes inef-
fiency; who wishes to see decent gov
m prevail at home, with m
inc equality of opportunity for all
men so far as it can be brought about;
and who wishes, as far as foreign
matters are concerned, to see this ma
ton treat all other nations, great and
small, with respect, and if need be
with generosity, and at the same time
show herself b to protect herself
by her own might from any wrong
at the hands of any outside power.
Each man here should feel that he
has no excuse, as a citizen in a de-
mocratic republic like ours, if he fails
to do his part in the government. 1t
is not only his right so to do, but his
duty; his duty both to the nation and
tt himself. Each should feel that, if

neglect his political duties because
he is too lazy, too selfish, too short
sighted, or too timid; but whatever
the reason may be it is certainly al
unworthy eason and it shows either
a weakness Or worse than a weak
ness in the mans character.
The weakling and the coward are
out of place in a strong and free COM
munity. In a republic like ours the
governing class is composed Of the
strong men who take the trouble to
do the work of government; and if
you are too timid or too fastidious
or too careless to do your part in this
work, then you forfeit your right to

WAS 1T CLARK OR M'kEAN
WHO SHOT DEPUTY CHASE

While the readers of The Record
know that the trial of Jop Clark and
w. A. M'Keaa was continued at Es-
tacnia a few days ago and that Clark
was taken to the penitentiary to await
a later hearing of the case, they will
be interested in the following special
from Estancia sent out just before the
continuance of the trial and telling of
the preparations that were made and
giving a history Of the shooting and
the hopes and intentions of both the
prosecution and defense:
Estancia, N. M, Feb. 19.-The jury
in the Jap L. Clarak murder case is
being empaneled today. The jury
will hardly be sworn in before to-
morrow, as many are disqualifying,
and the defense will probably exer-
else its eighteen peremptory chal-
lenges, with a possibility of the terri
tory using its six challenges. The
trial OF the cause proper will con
sumo about two days.
w. A. Mexican, Jointly indicted with
Clark, is a very sick man this morn
ing, being under the physicians care
with symptoms of pneumonia. 1t is
thought, however, that he will be able
to appear in court tomorrow.
Attorney General Reid has been
subpoenaed as a witness for the de-
Tense. He is intended to be used as
a character witness.
The Crime.
The crime for which Clark and Nc
kean now stand charged is for h
murder of James M. Chase, a deputy
sheriff, at Torrance, N. NJ, on the
4th day of April, 1905. Just what the
territory expects to prove as to the
causes which a UP to killing mas
not been intimated by District Attor-
ney Clancy; but the presumption is
that Clark will set up selfdefense. 1t
is said that Clark arrived in Torrance
early in the day and Immediately took
off his arms and left them in the sa-
loon of n Davidson. After depos-
iting his arms with Davidson, he no
ticed Charley Gilbert, for whom he
"a d piO1LouASSu N1SO "ht
diately administered to the said Gil
bert a sound ~threshilg. Gilbert, af-
ter Clark had finished with him, hunt
ed up Chase and reported to him what
had happened. Chase, being a warm
friend of Gilbert, and there being bad
blood between him and Clark, set
out to call Clark to account. They
met at the saloon, words were ex-
changed and guns came into play. 1t
is said that Chase fired h first shot,
inf1icting a flesh wound in the upper
part of CIark's right leg. The firing
then became rather p~romisciOus,
Clark standing his ground while
Chase was running and turning and
firing frequently. AT the corner of
the Dunlavy mercantile building
Chase fell, MORALLY wounded. An in
quest developed the fact that ne had
received Wa wounds either of which
would have proved fatal. 1t will be
for the territory to prove by whom
these shots were fired, whether both
were fired by Clark or Mexican, Dr.
one by each, and consequently, wheth
er Clark or Mexican is the murderer
of Chase. 1t is evidently the theory
of the prosecution that Clark is the
principal in this affair n that Nc
Kean is an accessory, as Clark is held
without bail while Mexican is allowed
to make bon in the sum of $4,000.

Jesse Lynch Williams, the play

the company of Ernest Peixotto, the
painter, who is making his first ap-
pearance in San Francisco for five
years
Williams chief motive in making this

ers, Hagerty, Finn and Wallen, who
have heard the cry against Dinan for
several months, but have refused to act.
Again, in order to effect the desired
changes in the works board, IL will be
necessary to make complete change
in its membership. and this means that
in the new order of things Duffey,
Aigeltinger and Egan will find no place.
In order to cut the stanch Schmitz
timber which has attempted to block
the efforts of the prosecution out of the
administration 1t will be necessary to
ask for the resignation of Fire Com
missioner Bollo, who. william J. Burns
charges, has been active in attendance
upon the jury which tried the mayor.
Burns accused Boilo of having visited
the st. Francis hotel, where the jury
was quartered, for no good purpose.

make those changes which the prose-
cutors have declared to be absolutely
necessary before any genuine reform
can be accomplished, number OF heads
must be Topped of.
Since the conviction of Schmitz there
has been genuine alarm among those
officials who hold their jobs by grace

Rnecessary to sweep out of Office a
large number of Schmitz' appointees, no
one will be disturbed who has attended
