JAGS MUST STAY
OFF THE TRAINS

AS result of the recent law passed
by the legislature prohibiting any
drinking of liquor on trains, some
amusing instances are arising and
many of the passenger conductors
strike some peculiar conditions. 1t is
hard to make a man believe that he
is not perfectly sober, even when he
has a first-class jag on and it is up
to the conductor to prove it to him. It
is just as necessary for the man to be
sober now as it is to have his ticket
in order to take a ride on the train.
A big difference will be noted on
some of the trains since the new law
went into effect The smokers of
trains usually have a good load of la
borers aboard and in the old days
nine out of ten would have anywhere
from one to half dozen bottles of
squirrel whisky with him, and even
if he was not jagged before he struck
the train he would be before he had
gone far. But it will be different now
and those wild old days are a thing of
the past. The change will be greatly
enjoyed by people who will have &C.
casion to use these trains, for in the
old days the smokers on them we're
hardly fit to ride in.
The new law which confers full pc
lice power on the conductors is hav-
ing a good effect. Formerly because
of the numerous "dry" towns, the
riotous element made practice Of 60

though frankly expressing displeas-
ure because of the dismissal of his
brother from the cabinet and the ar.
rest of former revolutionary officers
who threatened De la Barra with re-
volt If he were not reinstated, DR..
Francisco Vasquez Gomez will not
withdraw as candidate for the vice
presidency on the Madero ticket, at
least not at present. This was an
nounced by DR.. Vasquez and Fran
cisco l. Madero following a conference
today.
That the relations of the two men
had been bit strained was we'll
known; but that Madero was able to
talk his old adviser into line was no
surprise to those who have seen him
convert more rebellious followers into
ardent supporters.
The tangled situation was thorough
ly discussed and the announcement
that DR.. VasqueZ does not intend to
withdraw is aiken to mean that his
brother, Emilio Vasquez Gomez, will
not accept the nomination for the
presidency.
VasQuez appeared to be in a pessi-
mistic mood when he talked to a news
paper man prior to his conference
with Madero. They were talking of
the action of the president in order
ing the arrest of those who had signed
the protest against De la Barta for

General Reyes, now the political op'
