That is all there is to the affair.
/ do not care to prosecute"
Mr.. Gleckler talked with a Citi-
zen representative over the tele-
phone. He was at his home. He
said at first that he did not care to
discuss the matter and would pre-
fer that it be not published, but
he said lie would permit The
Citizen representative to use his
own judgment about the matter.
Both statements are given as
nearly verbatim as possible in
fairness to both parties.
Mr.. Gleckler said that he met
Mr.. Baca near Walton's drug
store at Third and Central.
/ spoke to Mr.. Baca," he said,
and we both stopped. / turned
my rig around so as to get near
er to his buggy and he inquired
why we had taken possession of
the building before La Opinion
Publica'S lease was up. ] re-
piled that La Opinion had vacat.
ed the building and that the keys
had been left in the door. He
wanted to know why we entered
the building when he had paid
the e,rent to May Is. | said that
as he had vacated the building
and was apparently through
with it, | had had it cleaned up
and papered for another tenant.
naturally supposed there could
be no objection to my doing so
when the others had left the
building and removed all effects.
Mr.. Baca said he had another
set OF KEYS to the building and !
told him to give them to me.
He reached in his pocket and not
finding them asked me to come
to his office and get them. We
went To the Office and stopped III
the second room. | left my
horse united downstairs and
when he asked me to sit down, |
declined saying that my team
was united. | was holding my
hands IN my overcoat pocket be-
cause they were cold from driv-
ing. Mr.. Baca asked me to take
my hand from my pocket and |
did so to humor him although the
request seemed strange. He
tGTned and pointed big pistol
at me. saying he would give me
the KEYS. | was so startled that
| turned and ran and did not stop
until got downstairs. had left
my rig in front OF Baca's S Office and
/ was afraid to get 1t, but finally
did and drove away. | can not ac-
count for Mr.. Baca acting as he
did. | consulted with the dis.
trict attorney about the matter
but | finally decided | would not
prosecute the case as | had no
doubt that Mr.. Baca would re-
pent of his hasty actions and |
did not feel that | should further
continue the affair by going into
court. | have never owned a
gun during the eleven years |

The question now is who own:

THE RANCH SUPPLY COMPANY
Much strengthened by the Addition
of a New Member to the Firm.

The Ranch Supply company of
Magdalena has just been much
strengthened by the addition of a
new member to the firm in the
person of S. Michaelis. The new
member has been in successful
business in Magdalena several
years. The business of the Ranch
Supply company is growing.

Geo. IL. Browne and S. Mi
chaelis of Magdalena, Stockhold-
ers in the Ranch Supply compa-
ny, went up to Albuquerque
Tuesday on a business trip, re-
turning Thursday morning.
Mr.. Browne said that considera-
BILE interest was manifested in
the Duke City in the suggestion
that an automobile line be es-
tablished between that place and
Socorro and Magdalena. He
thinks that the plan is entirely
feasable, especially in view OF
the fact that an excellent road
could be made at very little cost
on the mesa west of the river.

Only a Cold.

"Only a cold," is a common ex-
preston. And so the victim lets it
go on, day after day, red eyes, swol-
len features, lassitude, sleeplessness,
loss of appetite, the irritating
cough.
In itself cold may be simply UNI
comfortable. In its results it is Of
ten fatal. Pneumonia, with its enor-
NOUS fatality; consumption, with its
deadly grip; bronchitis, asthma,
these and many ailments are often
the direct result Of a cold.
The patient may have had many
colds, They have resulted in moth
ing serious. But when the system
has become weakened by these re-
peated attacks, when the mucous
membranes are in a chronic un-
healthy condition, then it is these
fatal maladies assert themselves.
This is no greater mistake than tC
neglect a cold. At its frat appear
ance measures should be taken to re
lieve it. At this season Of the year
when coughs and colds are common
Peruna should be kept constantly il
the house. At the first symptom
this remedy should be taken. 1t vii
soothe the mucous membranes, re
lieve the irritation. and the col
will gradually disappear. That TIL
has been the experience of many
proven by the hundreds of gratefl
! letters in our files.

Elections in Beiaium.

Political amenities during q Belgian
election seem to be unfettered by any
censorship. Boards are erected every
where, in groups of threes. on which
the three parties, c~lericals, liberals and
socialists, aflN their appeals and dis
play their cartoons without restriction.
The great success at the recent cleo
ton was a socialist cartoon showing
an elephant (the Congo drawing his
sustcnance from some evil looking
~financiers who are feeding him with
bags of gold. On the elephants back
is a hideous caricature of King Leopold
experimenting the feeding operation.
On the last vertebra is perched the
Countess Vaughn, wearing a crown
made to look more like a halo and hold
ing out a baby i'll triumph.
Grouped around the tail end are the
animals offspring, COLLINS, represent
ing lust, greed, brutality, cunning. etc.
The elephant stands on tho bodies of
slaves. This cartoon was always sur
rounded by a crowd OF admirers.
Another cartoon showed the atroci-
ties of the Congo. The %financiers are
smiling in the upper part of the pic
ture. While below are Belgian soldiers
ma%ltreating the natives. One file is
amusing itself by shooting little black
children; ar officer. sword in hand ia
pursuing a black woman, and here and
there are mutilated blacks. one with
his arm and another with his leg gone.
