THE TAMPA BOARD OF TRADE A
LITTLE LATE

The Tampa board of trade, in an
article "On Temperance"-that's the
way 1t is headed-has issued man
ifesto against the prohibition move
ment now being agitated In Hillsbor-
ough county. as it is in nearly all the
counties in the south.
The Tampa board Of trade. in clos
irg a series of resolutions uses the
following language:
Therefore. we condemn and depre-
cate the present agitation in this
county, seeking to bring about wet"
or dry" election, believing that the
same would be detrimental to our
business interests and general well
fare, and call upon the people OF this
city and county having its lagrer in
terestS at heart TO use their utmost
endeavOrS TO Illustrate the ends of
those misguided persons engaged in
the persent prohibition movement in
this city and county, both within and
without our limits
We think that the above remarks
are just a little too sweeping and are
somewhat out of time
A few persons may be misguided;
indeed. a great number of persons
may be, but after a discussion of this
question from all points of view for
forty years or more, and when city
after city, county after county, and
state after state. one after another,
declares it best to part company with
the saloon, it seems a little late and
just a little bit bigoted for a little
gathering Of persons constituting the
Tampa board of trade 10 sOlemnly res
-IU' trat the immense army engaged
in this work are misguided" 1t is
sweeping statement and partakeS
somewhat of the PhariseeS Of Old.
If the persons engaged in this move
ment are misguided" then the larg-
ar number of the people of the south
and many across the border have Ut
.erly gone daft.

Schubert for Sheriff.

For reasons more private than public,
Julius Meyer, who was to have been
named as sheriff of Torrance county by
Governor Hagerman, to succeed Manuel
Sanchez Sanchez removed by Judge
Mann, declined to accept the Office un-
der the conditions, and Pedro Schubert
was named by the Governor. Mr.. Schu-
bert was in town the first of the week
arranging for his bond, and will enter
upon the duties of the Office at once.
Mr.. Schubert has been resident of
this part of the country for quarter
of century, more or less, and is we'll
acquainted with the conditions and the
people he will have to deal with. He
is fearless in his defense of what he
believes to be right, and will make a
good officer.
Mr.. Meyer, who holds a position as
member of the Mounted Police of the
territory, will be transferred to Els
tancia, where he will be in position
to assist Sheriff Schubert in his work.
Altogether the outcome is very salts
factory to the people generally.

Last Saturdays New Mexican pub
lished an interview with Col. Geo. w.
Prichard, headed Election Fraud
Humbug Exposed" in which the Col
onel attemps to try the various cases
now at issue in the District Court for
Torrance county in regard to the
charges against several of the election
officials of the November election. TIE
Colonel takes up the various charges
and by simply making statements,
many of which are false and others er-
roneous, and then taking upon himself
the powers of the jury clears his eli
ents of all semblance of fraud.
AS far as the grand jury not return
ing any indictments against any of the
election officials, the matter was never
brought before that body, nor did that
body investigate anything along this
line. District Attorney Clancy, was
in possession of affidavits and deposi-
tions, and knowing that the grand jury
would be more than busy investigating
other affairs, and realizing that the in
formation was sufficient to warrant his
doing 50, saved time by filing the Fin
formation in his possession, rather than
cause further expense to the county.
The Colonel accuses someone, he
dosen't mention just who, with "un-
just prejudice against the natives, "
against men who have voted for years
in that county without ever having
been accused of illegal work at the
polls" He blames the whole trouble
to ''poorly informed newspaper cores
pondent." :" Suppose we see who is the
poorly informed one in the case.
'"In Precinct Number 1, known bet
ter as Tajiqui Precinct, the judges OF

These records are on file in the of
fee of the ProbatelClerk of the county,
and were prepared in triplicate, so that
there could have been no change in the
same. Who was the "poorly informed
newspaper correspondent" Col. Pri-
chard or the other fellow?
"'These same judges are also charged
with allowing two minors to vote. 1t
does not even yet appear whether these
two voters were under age or not.
However, the judges could only act up
on the best information obtainable. That
was statement from the parents that
both young voters were of age 1t
seems to mesthe parents should know
more about such a matter than any one
else.
In this case, the charge is not that
two minors were allowed to vote, but
that one, Martin Sanchez y Sedillo,
was allowed to vote. In this matter
the records Of the Catholic church show
that the said Sedillo was born in the
year 1887. In order to make him
tHenty-one years of age in 1906, it
would take the assistance of the fam
Gus Comptometer, of which we have
) recently heard.
'In Precinct No. 3, known as
Manzano precinct, Herberto Cutter
rez, Eulaio Samora and Benigno Baca,
judges of election are charged allowing
one Secundino Garcia to vote when he
was not citizen Of the United States.
Garcia says he is no. only resident of
| tile United States but that he has voted
in Torrance county for twenty-five
years. He has never before been ques-
toned or challenged" "
Because a resident of the territory,
who is not a citizen of the United
States has peen allowed to vote fol
years past admitting for the sake OF
argument that he has, which we do moi
beleve) is no reason that he shoulC
have been allowed to vote at the recent
election. If Mr.. Care is citizen Of
the United States he can easily produce
his naturaliza ION papers or prove his
birth within the boundaries of the
Unit ed States. 1t is these methods
which have come to be known as
''Valencia County Methods" to which

Ready for Business.

H. A. Canter, of Los Vegas, who
with Sam A. Goldsmith, will shortly
open a general merchandise store here,
is in town, pushing the work on the
new building, just across the street
from the postoffice. Mr. Canter says
the goods are all bought for the new
business and as soon as the building is
ready will be here. The store will be
named 'The Leader" it being the in
tention of the proprietors to make it a
Leader in it's line. All goods will be
marked in plain figures and one price
will be made to all.
The building is being erected by w.
C. Asher, who has been handicapped in
securing the necessary material, but
now all the lumber is on the ground
and the work will be pushed to compile

nesses to prove his assertion that these
voters came to Precinct Number with
certificates of registration from another
precinct and asked to be allowed to
vote. They had their ballots rolled in
their certificates and when Judge OF
Election Spencer examined the certif-
Gates, the ballots were exposed. The
complaints in this case were not made
by the persons whose ballots were ex-
posed for two are brother-in-laws of
Spencer Outside parties who evident
ly wanted to make trouble, filed the
complaints. -
The absurdity here crops out, when
the registration books are examined
and the name of Frank II. Courtney ap-
pears as Number II and that F. w.
Trieloff, as number So. Why should
these men secure certificates of regis
tration, when they were registered in
this precinct. The court records will
here show that the complaints were
made and the afidavits sworn to by the
persons whose ballots were exposed,
and not by outside parties. Who is the

''In Precinct Number 5, known as
the Punta de Aqua precinct, Pablo J.
Jaramillo and Teo Torres, Judges of
election, are charged with preventing
Gregorio Sanches from acting as Judge
and with filling the vacancy thus
created with the election of Enrique
Velasquoz. The explanation of these
judges is that Sanches was a minor and
could not meet the legal requirements
for such an office.
In this case the two judges of cleo
ton claimed that Gregorio Sanchez was
not of age, and consequently could not
act as judge of election. The poll
books show that the same Gregorio
Sanchez was, sometime during the
same day, allowed to cast his ballot.
Perhaps if he was not of age in the
morning ne became so during the day.

For several years Rusie worked at

a good pitcher in the box to defeat a

The former star of the big league

first three innings he put them over
the plate and all around It at his
Former great speed. Then he weak.
ened and was batted out of the box.
Once afterwards he ventured to play,
but the bad arm was again In evi-

showed that he would never be able
to pitch again. There is a great lump
under the arm of the Giants former
celebrity and idol of the New York
fans In the long ago, and medical

But Rusie has become philosoph.

on Sundays or at idle times he has
