cUNTRY LIFE COMMISSION
 BOASTS N. Nj. CONDITIONS

FL PASO, Nov. 25.-THe sensation of the morning session of the country life commission was the denuncla- tion of the existing conditions in New Mexico. and the politicians who make such a condition possible.
 In speaking about the conditions as they existed in she Mesilla valley, especially among tho Mexicans, Us- car Snow said tha: politics in New Mexico was the worst possible; that the people holding office are there for the money there is in 1t and not for the good of the community; that the officers are not doing their duty; that the people in control In the Me- silla valley are not in sympathy with agricuhure; that 1t is not possible to elect good officials because of the floating vote: that in the last election between $4000 and S5o00 was spent in Dona Ana county and that in his pre- cinct from 50 to 60 votes were bought, and tEis condition is not confined to his country.
 Felix Martinez added that while 1t was not confined 70 one party 1t was a most corrupt condition of affairs.
 NIT. Wallace, of the commission, asked the current price of votes, ana was told that it ranged from g up, according to the der1aDd. Prof. Bailey added that 1t was apparent that such a community peeedd salvation.
 The denunciation by Oscar Snow was brought up by his talk on the conditions of country life in his com. muni;v especially applying to the Mexican laboring ciass. He said that what was Deeded was not more sclcois for the children as much as mere for the adults. They cannot gc- Into the Agricultural college be- cause of lack If primary schooling and a demonstration school should be started for their Der eft during the winter months.

HOPE OF BARRIERS,

Why Mayor of Tombstone Has Hair Crop of 1896
 Vintage,

Mayor A Wentworth of Tombstone, one of the pioneers and most interest ing characters in Arizona, was a Tucson visitor yesterday, says the Star. Aside from his other recom- mendatious to notice and veneration, May yor' Wentworth is known as the TrCud possessor of the longest head of silken hair in the southwest. His appearance upon business street Is always followed by curious gossip as to the reason for h.s peculiar hair dressing.
 And thereby hangs a tale. In 1896 in all the territory there was on more earnest and ardent supporter of Bryan fer the presidency than the Tombstone chief. He vowed that ht would never let the scissors touch his hirsute adCrlmcnt until the Ne braskan was inaugurated into the chief magistracy Of the nation. For four long years he hoped on, ana when Bryan started on his second race visions Of a near acqua ntance with 1 barber grew upon nim. IT. 'ic- ] feat fer tn" second time which ITl"T drew at the lands of McKinl-y I,d | Jht dnuEhty rOmbstonian to Du. aw;'.' ais expectations in cold storage for eight years longer, as the Parker fasco intervened to cause a four years delay.
 This time, more than at any period since the first race, Wentworth fig ured that a barber would have a joo. He was convinced that the Great Commoner was fac ng destiny and only awaited the returns to get busy. ] When the flashes came that Taft was elected and the newspapers began to print editorials about the conse- quent elimination of Bryan as a pres idential possibility he almost gave uL in despair.
 But yesterday all about { ne city the chief executive of the Coch se mining center was wearing a smile To a reporter for the Star he ex plained it in this wise: You see, the other day on his way to Mexico, Mir Bryan gave out an interview in Sar Antonio. Before that I had abou g ven up all hope of setting the pace for a pair of shears again in m! lifetime, but that interview has made me feel better. Did you notice tha DA ydI SSl4u II p1A y AAA1 to he would run again? It is simpl. that while Bryan lives and there il a Democratic party, there is still hop for the tonsorial artists, as they low to call themselves"
 Mayor Wentworth has still anotne cause of rejoicing in his heart o hearts. In the very center of thC avalanche which overwhelmed tht Democrats of Cochise at the last cleo tion, he was undismayed by the foo, of Republican ballots and won hi race for reelection to the mayoralt of Tombstone by fifteen votes. Hi personal strength marked him as on of the few Democrats to be snatche, from the burning all the hopes O Democracy. He expects to return t his home some time today.

Efforts to Save. Time.

A minute isn't much, but to gain a
few what struggle is going on in the
transportation world! Time was, not
so many years ago, when four weeks
were counted as good time in crossing
the Atlantic. Now the four-day boat
is here, and the two swiftest ones
strain each voyage to lop off few
minutes aud establish new record
while other lines are planning the con-
struction Of boats which shall do even
better. Recently the Pennsylvania
railroad spent 81 900, 900 to save three
minutes in time between Philadelphia
and Trenton, New jersey To save
ninety minutes time between Phila-
delphia and Harrisburg thesame COM
pany spent about S7O,OOO,OOO. Ten
Yeas ago the country regarded the
Pennsylvania as a fast road. A wes.
terner riding over it at that time mar
veled at its excellent roadbed, and at
wonderful system, new to him, of
watering its engines without stop
ping But in ten years the company
has spent $40, 200, 900 to save an hour
or two of time-to give the public
more speed.
The Sante Fe spent $40, 900, 600 to
seven miles and a climb over the
Ration mountains by building the
Belan cutoff in New Mexico. Ten
million dollars is quite sum, but the
engineers can easily show that the
time saved otfsetts the great expense
incurred by reason of the improve
ments,
The Union Pacific has spent several
million dollars in the work of short
ening roads and reducing grades in
the effort to shorten time on their
roads through Nebraska, Wyoming
and the other mountain states.
The Northern Pacific spent 81, 600, 900
last year to save a few minutes in
time between st. Paul and the Pacific
coast, and SO on with any number of
roads and steamship lines. In cut
ting down the time, it is estimated by
experts that the railroads of this
country have spent $3.50, 900, 900 in the
last few years, and further plans for
saving minutes are under consider
alton. Tunnels are built, mountains
are torn away, streams are spanned
with costly bridges, grades are chang
ed and lines are moved, all at great
expense, in order that we may get
there little quicker. This is hur-
ry up age in the matter Of travel.
