Again, when D~ominguez was killed,
the sympathizers were few, and those
who were willing to lend any aid were
the better element of tho citizens of
Mogollon. In many instances the Off
GERS who have gone to Mogollon for
the purpose of lettering conditions have
been hindered rather than assisted by
those who were in a position to help
them. Especially is this so in regard
to the investigation of the recent hold

AUTO RACES
WERE THRILLING
The Casualty List Almost
Resembles That of a
Battle Field
TWO DEAD, MANY INJURED
Four of the Latter Are Fatally
Hurt---Harry F. Grant the
Winner.

Motor Park Way, Oct. Harry F.
Grant, driving an Alcon car won the
Vanderbilt cup race today. Joseph
Dawson, in a Marmon car, was Sec
ond, and John Aiken of the National
third Grants time was four hours,
fifteen minutes and fifty-eiaht and
thirty-nine hundreds of second. The
list of dead and injured for which
the race is responsible reads like a
war skirmish. Two are dead. They
are Mechanician Charles Miller and
Ferdinand Dziuda, the manager of a
New York auto house, whose car
struck telegraph pole while he and
party were on their way to the races.
The injured are: Driver Chevrolet,
slight; Driver Harold Stone, fatally;
Driver William Knipper, seriously;
Driver Padula, fatally; Mechanician
John Barber, seriously; Mechanician
Mason, seriously; Mechanician H.
Kittrell, fatally; Thomas Miller, a
spectator, fatally; five occupants of
Mr. Dziuda's car, slightly; occupants
of touring car run into at the road
side when the Chevrolet car left the
track, slightly. The best previous
record was 64.3 miles per hour, made
by Robertson in 1908; Grants aver
age is 65.4 miles per hour. The race
was thrilling, first one car gaining
a lead Only to lose il in fau min

Race Was a Revolving Spectacle.
From the sporting standpoint the
race will go down in the annals of
automobiling as the most hotly con.
tested long distance event ever held
over the open country roads. But
judged by the cost of killed and maim-
ed the race was a revolving spectacle
and a severe arraignment of the man.

TURNED DOWN
Prejudice Against Santa Fe
Railroad Defeats Him
for Presidency
IRRIGATION CONGRESS OVER
Francis j. Heney Takes the Lead
in Turning Tide Against New
Mexico Man.

we want no corporation lawyer tt
head this congress-" shouted Francis
J. Heney, he of San Francisco mucl
rahng fame, in the National Irriga
tion Congress at Pueblo, Colorado, as
the ballot was being taken for presi
dent, and his appeal to the popular
prejudice against corporations and
railroads turned the scales against
Colonel Ralph E. Twitchell, vice pres.
ident of the congress, and who had
been recommended for the presidency
unanimously by the executive COM
mittee, recommendation which ac-
cording to precedent, should have
carried the election. The New Mexi-
co delegation felt the slight keenly
and j. Francis Heney did not add to
the number of his friends in this
neck of the woods.
The New Mexico delegates returned
last night, and today as a genuine
expression of respect and gratitude,
rendered Colonel r, E. Twitchell a
banquet at the Alvarado at Albuquer-
que, which proved to be an enthusias-
tic testimonial and expression of es-
TEEN for Colonel Twitchell who in
late years has done more than any
one other man for the irrigation con-
gress. Colonel Twitchell takes his de.
feat philosobhically, declaring at to.
days banquet that the congress is big
ger than any man and that he bows
TO the will of the majority.
The New Mexico delegates declare
that the congress was in most re-
spects a success and that New Mexi.
co won out on points in controversy
and in which the Territory was espe-
clally interested. Much advertising
literature was distributed by H. B.
Hening, the secretary of the New
Mexico Bureau of immigration.

Louis, Mo-, and was graduated from
the law school in 1890.
In the summer of 1890, he began the
practice of law and has continued
such practice ever since.
A Democrat in politics Mr.. Dougher-
ty has been signally honored by his
party, for he attended the national
convention in 1900 as delegate and
was a member of the platform com
mittee when the silver plank was in
troduced.
Mr.. Dougherty has held the Office of
district attorney three years, resign
ing his second term.
Elected on non-partisan ticket to
the convention he will be one of the
most useful members of it, even
though belonging to the minority
party.

Union resents and refutes this charge.
We have always fought fair. The In

Editor of Times at EI Paso.
Ell Paso, Texas, Oct. Hon. Har.
rison Gary Otis picks Hon. Enrique
Creel, minister of foreign relations
for Mexico, to succeed President Por.
firio Diaz as president of Mexico up
on the retirement of the gray eagle"
of the southern republic.
"Resourceful. brilliant, liberal to.
ward Americans; trained in diplomacy
and of broad conception and progres.
sive temperament, Minister Creel, II
selected, would make an excellent
successor to President Diaz," General
Otis said Friday at the st. Regis.
While he is not of pure Mexican
blood, no one could say that he is
not true Mexican, and l know of no
objection to him as president to sue
ceed President DiaZ.
Il read the story that he had been
considered as the presidents success
sor, but do not know whether this
was official or merely a report. As
governor of Chihuahua, minister at
Washington and in his present ca
pacity as minister of foreign relations,
minister Creel has shown himself to
be man of great capabilities and
would, believe, make splendid sue
cessor to President Diaz upon his re-
tirement."
General Otis, who is managing edi-
tor and owner of the Los Angeles
Times, and who represented the Unit
ed States at the Mexican centennial
celebration as delegate from Califor-
MIA, arrived Thursday from Mexico
City and after remaining IN Ell Paso
over night, left for his home in Los
Angeles. After spending "a days in
the Mexican capital as the official del
egate and four as an individual. Gen
eral Otis returned with the warmest
praise for Mexico's treatment of the
foreign representatives during the
centennial celebration. Being a per
sonal friend of President Diaz, Gen
eral Otis had a number of interviews
with the grand old man of Mexico
which, he said, were the most pleas
ant part of his very pleasant visit to
Mexico City.
