EX-GOVERNOR oTERo WORK
ING TO SAVE URToN LAKE

Miguel A. Otero, of Santa Fe, for
mer governor of New Mexico, arrived
last night TO meet some of the lead
ing Len of Roswell and stimulate in
tereSt in a movement to thwart the
attempt that is being made in Wash
don the project in the north n of
Chaves county. AS many people know
4. a. Jones, OF Las Vegas, and 9TH
ers are endeavoring to have the Ur-
ton Lake project abandoned in order
that they might secure the Pecos
water rights for the Beck grant, hav-
ng filed on these rights, should the
government give up the attempt to
construct the Triton lake.
Governor Otero, as president of
the Triton Lake Land & Water CoCn
Pany, is starting a movement TO get
mp a -remonstrance against the aban-
donment of the Triton project. The
Crtoa company now plans to reclaim
the Triton lake country under the pro
visions of the Carey act, and their
work in this line deserves the support
OF all of Chayes county, for it would
build up a %populous community that
would be tributary to Roswell and
make the north end of the county
what is aow to be found in tle south.
Governor Otero will return tomorrow
morning to Santa Fe.

BURDENED WITH TAXES,
JAPANESE SEEK SUICIDE
Appalling Legacy of Debt Left
by the War With
Russia.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

LONDON. September 10. 1910.
F. J. Harrison, journalist Of many
years experience in the far east, has
drawn q remarkable picture of the effects
in Japan OF the great war with Russia.
The war left an appalling legacy Of debt,
he says. and Japan has not yet recovered
from the economic depression that fol-
lowed in the train of a campaign, which,
II it brought glory to her arms, sadly
depleted her treasury. Today the Japa-
nese are bearing a burden OF taxation
the like Of which exists in no other coun-
try In the world, and the economic conse-
quences. grave as they are, are not the
yosst.
The statistics Of crime and suicide have
Increased enormously since the war. So
great. indeed. has been the growth OF
suicide. especially among young people
that tho newspapers have OF late abstain
ed from publishing the figures In detail
The latest available statement on this
head, however showed that l1,OOO-odd
persons of both sexes had committed sui
eide In a single year. These figures
mean that fer every day In the year
there were more than thirty deaths from
thiS cause on an average. or more than
one death for every hour of the day. .
unpleasant reading. and Mr.. Harrison
holds that nobody who knows the number
and complexity Of the purely domestic
issues which await Japan in the near
and distant future can honestly share the
bAIief that she IL committed to q policy
Of Werlike aegression as q substitute fol
one Of peace and normal progress.

Not Keeping Pace With Population

Mr.. Phillips tells the Commissioners
that the sewer system is not keeping pace
with the growing population of the Dis
trict. This he attributes in great part
to the wide dispersion of population.
Water supply and sewers are now a
health Office requirement, yet according
to the report 1.-The number of dwellings
without sewer connection have recently
increased rather than decreased, not
withsta nding the effort that has been
made to stretch the sewer construction by
small and inexpensive separate sewers
to the greatest possible advantage.
''At present there are nearly 5000
dwellings without available sewers and
several hundred with subsoil drains, sep
tic tanks, cesspools and other makeshift
arrangements. Considerably increased
funds are greatly needed to provide long
delayed sewage facilities in many Sec
tiOnS"
