More important than the ability of
the company to operate cars is the
probable effect of sympathetic
strike decided upon by the leaders of
every labor organization in the city.
This monster walk-out of ninety thous
ana men is scheduled for next Satur-
day unless the street car strike is am
icably adjusted in the meantime. The
city is a partner in the Rapid Transit
Company and the decision for a gen
eral strike is conditional upon the
city making a bona fide effort to ar
bitrate the differences.
Yesterdays rioting resulted in the
deaths of a man and boy, injury TO
two boys from bullets and the wound
ing of half a hundred persons from
flying missiles and policenen's clubs.
More than one hundred arrests were
made.
A car was stoned at Lancaster av-
enue and 45th street this morning and

UNDER SNOW

Spokane, Wash, Feb. 2S.-Two e.
normous avalanches have carried
death and destruction to mining
of the rich Couer DlAlene district in
northern Idaho. Last night the great
snow slide struck the little town OF
Mace, burying twenty-five houses and
their sleeping occupants under ice,
snow and timber at the bottom of the
canyon.
At 500 this morning another slide
rushed down on the town OF Burke,
crushing a score of houses under tons
of earth and snow.
Fourteen bodies have already been
recovered from the ruins at Mace,
and sixteen have been found at Burke.
1t is feared that fifty to sixty lives
are working frantically in a raging
blizzard to recover the bodies.
1t is feared the loss of life is heav-
er at Burke than at Mace and ply
sicians are being rushed from Wal
lace. while every man who can be
spared has been appealed to to help
the rescue work.
From the foot of the Anchor mine
to the Catholic church, about half a
mile, the slide is thirty feet deep.
When the alarm spread through the
mining camps of Burke, Hecla, Her
cules, Anchor and Tiger-Porman, the
miners began to seek places of safe
ty for the children. Mothers were haul
ed up on the hills on sleds. brothers
literally dragged their little sisters to
places of safety and when the ava
lanche tore down tae hill and swept
away cabins in a shattered mass, the
homes had been deserted by the WON
n and children, while the bread pro-
viders were rescuing the injured at

Inc antl-SalOon puDAc lneelihs a.
the First Prcsby terian church yester-
day afternoon was well attended and
showed that the interest in driving
out the dispensers of booze is con-
stantly on the increase. There was
anuch enthusiasm shown and some
strcng points developed in tae indict-
nent against The saloons.
Rota Rev. II. Van Valkenburg and
DR. ID. r. Thomas made good address
es. and Justice of the Peace A. j.
Welter gave some facts from his Of
fee showing that he has had over l.
2G0 cases before him caused by liq-
uur.
The following resolutions were then
adopted.
In-as-Much as the question of exis-
tence Of saloons in our City or the
denial Of license to such saloons is
purely moral issue and not one
which concerns Democrats or Republi-
cans as such: and
A Moral Issue Only.
In-as-Much as the citizens of Ros-
well are In the midst of a great move
m.ut looking toward the adjustment
of the licensed saloon from our midst.
and opposed to the drawing of the old
party lines in this contest; and
m-as-Much as the laws of the Ter
ritory OF New Mexico are such that
no vote by the people can be made
effective without men in Office who
a-e in personal sympathy with the No
License policy, and the success of our
cause depends solely on the election
men conmitted to our cause; and
Whereas the attitude of the party
leaders of the Republican party Is
such as to indicate that they will keep
their party organization out of the
conflict, leaving the "wets" and the
"drys" an omen field in which to test
and settle this only question of inter
est before us: and
Whereas the Central Committee OF
the Democratic Party has met and
decided to issue a call for a Primary
election regarding and in preparation
for the City election to be held April
5th, 1910:
Therefore be il Resolved, That we
citizens of Roswell here assembled
on this day. do most heartily protest
against such action upon the part of
that if such purpose is persisted in
il will be solely in the interests of the
saloon: and
And be il Further Resolved that we
do here and now declare our deter
mined purpose not to participate in
such Primary. and respectfully ask
all Democrats who desire to see the
licensed saloon driven from our beau
tiful City not to participate in such
Primary.
And Furthermore be IL Resolved
That We hereby call n meeting of pro
test against such Primary on the part
of the Democratic party, said meet
ing TO be held next Sunday afternoon
at the Armory, to which we personally
pledge ourselves TO invite all on
friends who desire to see the saloons
baEished from our midst.

CHANGING America.

We admit and regret the fact that
England is far better known to our
transatlantic visitors than is the
United States to British travellers.
We wish it were possible to extend
by any means among all persons of
tolerable means and leisure on this
side personal knowledge of the re-
public. If there is a real danger it
lies in this, that after a few years our
experience or ideas of the United
States tend to fall behind the facts.

was. is still passing swiftly through
