DOYLE GETS FORTY
YEARS IN THE PEN

YEARS in IHE FEN.
The following telegram from Los
Angeles, Calf, was received last eve
ming at the sheriff's office in this city:
Doyle plead guilty to rape. Gets
forty years at Folsom. (Signed) w.
A. HamInel, sheriff."
The man referred to in the MESSAGE
is w. z. Doyle, the young man of q
years who formerly lived in Roswell
moved to California two years ago and
returned to Roswell only a short time
ago. A few days after his arrival IN
the last occasion he was arrested on
a charge brought in Los Angeles, in
which a little girl of nine years who
lived at the house where he boarded
was h prosecuting witness. There
was evidence against him, also, in
connection with a seven year old girl
in the same house, and b letters and
kilograms from the Los Angeles sher-
iff indicated hat there were other
charges that might be brought against
him. Folsom is the location of the
State penitentiary of California.
The Los Angeles deputy sheriff who
came ere after Doyle stated to the
local officers hat the girl in the case
was the little daughter of M. B. Gar
ton, formerly of this city and for
whom Doyle worked during part of
his stay in Roswell. 1t is understood
that Doyle was rooming at the Gar
ton home in Los Angeles.

to resubmit statewide prohibition.
The senate is trying to smother the
proposition in committees. The same
is true in Missouri. The liquor inter-
ests in Nebraska threw their strength
last fall to the Democrats and elected
that icket in the hope of steming the
tide. The Republican will probably
declare for prohibition to get even.
In Oklahoma the Sons of Washing
ton, anti-prohIDition, plan TO use the
initiative to secure a state vote on re-
pealing constitutional prohibition. In
Kentucky the National Mode License
advocates are trying to stem the tide
and are making some Roadway, but
he bigger sweep of the dry move
ment is outpacing this progress. 1t
probably will be a surprise to most
readers to know that Ohio is already
80 per cent dry and that Illinois and
Indiana are running Ohio close. 1t is
the general declaration that in Ken
tucky, Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Ne
tbraska n Colorado the dry" laws
are well enforced.
Prison penalties for eVasions of the
law do the trick in some of these
states.

reported to have deserted the wheat
battle yesterday to. inspect the crop
for himself. He arrived here today and
left shortly afterwards for Tercio,
Colorado, where he will drive to the
ranch of w. H. Bartlett, o. Verne
10, Texas, a trip of twenty-five miles.
Patten is nervous and tired n re-
piled shortly to a reporter who ask
ed his plans. He refused to answer
when asked If he was inspecting crops
He will spend some time at the ranch
for rest.
At the hotel where Patten rested
the clerk warned him it would be
dangerous to attempt the passage
from Texico to the Bartlett ranch be-
cause of the blizzard now raging.
"I don't care" replied the, traveller,

The stage cannot reach the ranch
before nightfall and the roads are
dangerous because of the tremendous
landslides.

CHECK IN THE
SWEEP OF THE "DRYS."

SVv66T Ut LII LII -
New York, April 17.-April 6 two
counties, Suffolk and Nassau, on the
eastern end of Long Island, voted for
licensing saloons. 1t was the first re-
cent determined contest in New York
state on what might he called a mod
erately large scale between the sa-
looms and the "drys". For the moment
there seemed to be a check on he
dry wave which has been sweep
ing over the country. The day before,
nineteen more counties in Michigan
joined the dry column. So far as the
movement in general is concerned the
Long Island result vas simply a local
check.
The South is practically "dry" but
in the driest states there is lax en-
forcement of the law. Blind tigers
are thick all over the South. Most of
the country districts in the Middle
and far West are dry and the law Is
well enforced in those regions
No Check in the West.
The dry" movement shows no
check In the South or West and grad
Iually the wave is sweeping toward the
EAST and North. The only Middle
state thus far that has slad a knock

9en states that have what Is called
prohibition. These are

Kansas, Oklahoma and Tennessee.
The law IN Tennessee, However. does

not go into effect until July 1st next.
In the state of Maine, Kansas and Ok
lahoma prohibition is constitutional;
in the other states it is statutory.
The dry wave is not the result of
the prohibition political movement.
The cause has been made effective in
nearly all the states by what are call
ed Anti-Saloon leagues. The move
ment is social and moral instead of
political. The cause has been advanc-
ed chiefly through local option laws.
The last s~trongho1ds in states
where there is not statewide prohibit
ton have been the cities. In almost
every case the movement has begun
in remote and SparSeIy settled coun-
ties and has spread rapidly to the
more populous and central places. Va
rious devices have been established
to check the wave In some cases
they have been successful for the time
being only to give away before an
other onward rush of movement.
Politics is mixed with it.
While not political in origin the
movement in several states become
mixed with politics. In Texas the
Democrats have declared for state
wide prohibition. The legislature has
refused to give it. The Republicans
have uGCldTeu against lie HION0ultuL.
The Prohibitionists say they will go
before the people politically with the
matter.
South Carolina will be "dry" for
two weeks next August in an interim
between the expiration of the dispen-
sary law and a vote whether that sys-
tenn will he renewed. In Arkansas
the Democrats are willing to submit
statewide prohibition to the people,
but the Prohibitionists have changed
front and demand instant statutory
inhibition. The legislature has re-
fused to grant it and the former local
option prevails.
In Iowa the lower house has voted

ening between hat would lead back
to the opening of the opera house.
The lot is much longer than is needed
for an opera house and plenty of fire
escape could be arranged on a
lot rs by 1913. This plan is being adop
ted in many cities. With the two
store rooms rented, it is believed the
opera hous would be a paying propo-
sition from the start. The need of
such a place of amusement in Roswell
is recognized by everyone.

SLUMP
IN WHEAT
-

Chicago, April PA further trem-
endous drive at b so-called wheat
corner today by many traders spelled
the end of the big bull market July
near the close touched 100 5-S and
May 121.
Chicago, April pa report is a.
float that the bull campaign in wheat
has been abandoned. The question al
so arises, 'has James A. Patten chang
ed his views2" These questions YER
current when the slump in wheat to-
day took place. Prices reached a point
8 to 8 IL under the high point of last
week when Patten declared wheat
was worth every ent paid o it. Re-
peatedly asked if he had a corner ON
July deliveries, Patten denied he had
been associating with the actual us
erS of wheat or was responsible of the
price. Since then the market has been
declining in such a way that the ordi-
nary followers of Patten are unable
to explain.
Today instead of recovering the
market opened nervou and weak. The
bears jubilantly pressed their advan-
tage, pointing to the weak forcing
markets as indicating there is no
worldwide shortage in wheat.
Armour, who, in a recent interview
upheld Patterns view, is reported TO
De selling IN the Liverpool market.
In Bartlett Patterns offices h break
was characterized as a furry. Pat
tens allies said: wait"
The eight cent decline made a big
hole in h paper profits, although no
one knows o much. Also there have
been heavy losses among traders
whose have given out.
Four prominent houses are said to
have sold an aggregate of seven mil
lion bushels during the day. Stop loss
orders poured into the wheat pit so
fast the brokers could seldom execute
within 3-4th cents of the price aimed
at. The weeks decline has wiped out
nearly a million dollars of profits, not
all paper. Many brokers were long OF
wheat but waited for higher prices
and are hit hard. Much blame is plac-
ed on Patten for leaving the market
before the bull campaign reached a
safer stage.

Reflections About Women

Woman is an instrument given to man for his happiness and
his delight. If the instrument gets neglected, out of tune and
broken, man should blame himself alone. Ninety-nine times ont of
a hundred the instrument is right enough; it only wants to be in
good and careful keeping.
In matrimony, to retain happiness and make it last to the end,
it is not a question for a woman to remain beautiful, it is a question
for her to remain interesting Not the slightest detail should be
beneath her notice in order to keep alive the attention of her
husband. Love feeds on illusions, lives on trifes. If man loves
his wife, a rose on her head, her hair parted the other way, a newly
trimmed bonnet, may revive in him the interest he felt the first
time he met her; nay, the emotion he felt the first time he held
her in his arms. The very best dishes may become insipid if
served with the eternally same sauce.
A woman should not lavish herself on a man and overwhelm
him with caresses. She should always leave something to be
desired. If a woman saturates a man with love he will get tired
of her.
The women who has never succumbed to temptation, often
because temptation has never been in her way, is memorable for the
Weaknesses of her sex.-MX ORELI.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT
Suggestion to the Nevada Delegation

Suggestion to the Nevada Delegation
A Washington dispatch published
recently related that Senators Smoot
aud Sutherland and Congressman
Howell, of Utah. had called on President
Taft, asking for an investigation of rail
way discrimination ON the part OF the
Southern aud Union Pacific and Oregon
Short Line in their State, and that the
President promised an early investigation
by the department of justice.
The Utah members showed that the
railways were charging more to Ogden,
Salt Lake and Provo for freight han to
the Pacific Coast.
This is exactly the Nevada situation,
and it would be an excellent move for
the Nevada representatives to make q
like call on the President, stating that
terminal rates are not granted the
people of this State.
The Sun hopes to receive a dispatch
stating that Senators Newlands and
Nixon and Congressman Bartlett have
made a call at the White House, with
like results. -Tonopah Sun.

Will Observe the Law

Some time ago the State Railroad
Commission addressed a letter to the
Southern Pacific Company calling
its attention to the fact that the law
prescribing the number Of brakemen
on freight trains, as required by the
act of the last Legislature known as
the "Three Brakeman Act" was not
being complied with. In reply thereto.
w. II. Bancroft, Vice President and
General Manager of the Southern
Pacific Company's lines east of Sparks,
stated that it was the intention of the
company to give a fair trial to the
law by complying with it, but if the
company found its working a hardship
upon 1t, the constitutionality of the Act
would be contested in the courts, other
wise the law would be strictly complied
with.
