The significance of this testimony,

in connection with that of the wit
nesses that while they opposed the
pending advances they would not OBJ
Ject to a general increase in rates,
was that stories had recently been
circulated indicating the plan of the
railroads to thus commit the ship
pers and then bring about a uni
form increase of rates applying to
the country as a whole.
The propaganda thus instituted is
in harmony with the testimony given
recently by the president of several
big railroad systems bearing upon
the need of incrF ases in order to en-
able them to mike improvements.

stitution for the state of New Mexico,

things. The party should be sus-
tanned. 1t should be made ready for
the great contest two years ahead.
