Queer B6df6|IOWS

Larrazolo has announced that
he has quit the Democratic party
and gone over to the Gang.
This is not surprising to those
who were on the inside during
the campaign for the constitu-
tion, when Larrazolo stumped
the territory in favor Of the con-
stitution. For it was then under
stood that he was to receive the
district judgeship in return for
his services. Won't it be nice
for Mr.. Larrazolo, after the
speeches he has made against
Mr.. Andrews during the past
two territorial campaigns, for
him now to run on the same
ticket with him? Politics does
make some queer bedfellows.

After a trip of inspection of

road by President E. T. Jeffrey,
it was decided by the officials of
the road to increase the facilities

That increased facilities must

JUSTICE OF
PEhCE IS NOT
COUNTY OFFICE

The Supreme Court of the Ter
ritory has decided that the Office
Of Justice Of the Peace is a pre-
cinct office and nota county office,
and therefore the election of
Justice of the Peace last jan
uary was legal, the justices not
coming in line with the county
officers, who hold over under the
terms of the Enabling Act. The
case as reported by the court is
as follows
No. 1419, The Territory of
New Mexico, ex rel, A. J. .Welter,
relator, appellant, VS.. M, W.
Witt, respondent, appellee, the
judgment of the lower court is
affirmed. The opinion is written
by Judge Wright and is con-
Cured in by Chief Justice Pope,
Judges McFie, Parker, Mechem
and Roberts, and Judge Abbott
concurs in the result, This is a
proceeding by information in the
nature o, quo warranto to try the
title of appellee to the office of
justice Of thespeace in precinct
No. l, Chaves county, New Mex
leo. The judgment of the lower
court was pro forma. 1t appears
that the appellant, A, j. Welter,
was the only elected, qualified
and commissioned and acting JUS
tice of the peace at and prior to
the passage of the act Of con-
gress, June 20, 1910, known as
the enabling act. The appellee
claims and now holds the said Of
flee as the result of an election
held in January, 1911. The title
Of the appellee to the office de.
pends upon the validity of the
election held in January, 1911.
The contention of the appellant
is that the act of congress to en-
able New Mexico and Arizona to
form q state government con-
tinues in office until the admission
of the commonwealth into the
union as a state, all territorial and
county officers and that justice
of the peace is county officer
within the terms Of section 5.
Judge Wright says counsel for
the appellant contend that JUS
tjce Of the peace is q county off
Ger, and he adds with this con-
tention we can not agree, "
In concluding his opinion of
which there is no syllabus, Judge
Wright says: 1T necessarily
follows therefore that justices of
the peace in this territory must
be considered as precinct and not
officers within the terms
Of section 5 of the act of June 20,
1910"

Politicians
dt th6 Fair

! Albuquerque, N. NJ, Aug 81,
1911. New Mexico will be in the
throes of it's first state campaign
and Albuquerque will be the
mecca for politicians of every
/ rank during the week of the first
State Fair to be held in Albu-
querque October 9 to IA. Gov
ernor Mills has accepted an in
vitation to formally open the
Fair on Monday and will be ac-
companied to Albuquerque by
the members of his staff, A
number Of territorial officials
will also accompany the govern
or from the capital. Chairman
H. O.. Bursum, of the republican
state committeeman chairman W.
C. Mcdonald, of the state demo
cratic committee, will be in AL
buquerque during the week con
ferring with political leaders
who will be here from various
parts Of the state. Fair week
will be a golden opportunity for
candidates, who will have been
nominated before that time. The
state election will be in the full
sense of the word a statewide
proposition. Candidates for
state officers will stump the
state from end to end. Politi-
clans already realize that the
New Mexico State Fair will af-
ford innumerable opportunities
for button-holing constituents
That the lobbies of the Albu-
querque hotels will be alive with
politicians may be easily seen
from glance at the list Of re-
selvations already on file at the
principal hostleries. The Sec
retary manager of the Fair has
already been approached by one
astute politician with overtures
for purchasing concession to
make an address before the
grand stand at the Fair grounds
on one of the big days of the
week. But there will be so much
doing at the Fair Grounds that
the effort was gracefully declin-
ed. In any event there will be
a gathering Of politicians i'll AL
buQuerque during Fair week
that will be of such proportions
that the politician who stays at
home will be behind the times
after the various caucuses and
meetings are held. It may be
that the anon" cornors will wit |
ness history making politics. All
in all a real live wire political
worker, wishing to protect his
own interests and those Of his
friends, cannot afford to stay
wway from the First New MeXi- |
co State Fair.

White Way
lights mean
PROSPERITY
Well Lighted Streets are Of
Great advertising Value
to City
{. |. EShIeman Of Cleveland
Addresses American Civic
Association

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-"A we'll
dressed city, like we'll dressed man,
commands attention and respect" de-
clared G. L. Eshelman of Cleveland,
O., today in an address before the
American Civic association.
Mr.. Eshelman was speaking Of the
benefits of modern street lighting in
American cities, and he declared that
Bright White Way" in any city was
the forerunner OF business prosperity.
Civic pride and civic competition, he
said, were largely responsible for tine
increase in ornamental lighting sys-
TENS in the cities.
Well lighted Streets said Mr.. Eshel-
man, not only had an advertising
value to a city, indicating prosperity
and progressive spirit, but benefit
in dollars and cents could be traced
ito them directly.
Mr. Eshelmam cited instances where
a city block, apparently dead, was re-
vived to- a live business thoroughfare
of heavy traffic when private enter
prise provided the illumination.
Modem lighting ON city streets, Mr..
Esheman said was sure to enhance
the value of property, because the
value of business property was fixed
only by the amount and kind of traf-
ftc which passes it. He explained the
common condition Of one side of a
street being deserted and another side
busy, as being due to the superior
Examinations on the busy side.
Practically any street directly trib-
utary to a business thoroughfare can
be fully doubled in value by installa-
ton of spectacular lighting" said he,
Lighting the entire business section
of city increases values by increas-
ing traffic. not only from the city it.
self but from the surrounding coun-
try and towns. Good light increases
the value of residential streets Good
street. lighting more than amy other
thing gives to a city an air Of pro-
gressiveness and prosperity"
Mr.. Eshelman C ndemned the sys-
tenn of not lighting city streets after
midnight or On nights when there is a
moon as fallacy. He described !
many systems of ornamental lighting |
which are now in use in Indianapolis, |
Pueblo and other cities with success. !

BRANDE|S SUPPORTS
LA F0LLETTE'S BILL

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Louis D.
Brandeis of Boston, before the sen.
ate interstate commerce committee
today advocated the La Toilette bill
designed to supplant the Sherman
antitrust law. Answering the ex-
ponents of government control of
monopolistic corporations, Brandeis
declared there was no such thing as
a natural monopoly of industry If a
law prohibiting practices through
which the existing great combina-
tions grow up should be clearly de-
fined, and enforced, he said, no trusts
would arise in the future. "
supporters Of the La Toilette bill''
he said, believe in competition in
industry on economic, social and po-
litical grounds"

torneys, jurors and everyone else con-
cerned in the Stokes case were
smoked out of the court room in the
criminal court building To-Day by a
slight fire in one of the upper stories.
Some one threw cigarette behind
"a wooden partition, starting a blaze
which caused a great deal of smoke
and which was very hard to find and
e1tinguish.
After trying in vain to clear the
room by opening the windows, JUS
tee Marcus ordered an early recess.
This is the third time the trial Of
Lillian Graham and Ethel Conrad,
charged with attempting to murder
w E. D. Stokes, has been unexpect-
edly interrupted. The first time was
the dismissal of a. juror wao indis.
creetly discussed the case outside the
court room. The second interruption
was caused by the illness of Stokes.
The defense expects to finish it's
summing up before adjournment to-
day. In this case the prosecution
will make the final argument and the
case will go to the jury tomorrow.

Wool Growers association opened here
today. Sheep men from nearly every
state in the Union are taking more
than the usual interest in this years

The feature of the opening session
was the annual address by former
Governor Gooding of Idaho. "Extm-
ton and robbery are mild terms" I"
Gooding said, for the railroad rates
on wool charged west Of Omaha. Good
ing referred to the experience Of
tlockmasters under the provisions OF

cannot exist dn this country without
protection. Gooding said Bryan was
the greatest enemy Of the noc1master
and denounced In strong terms the

(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec. 14.-The anti-suffra-
getts have been aroused to action by
the recent violent demonstrations of
the suffragettes. An important depu-
tation from the National Anti-Wom-
ems Suffrage society, under the lead
ership of Lord Crlrzon of Kedelston,
was received by Premier Asquith at
the Official. residence on Downing
street this morning. The object Of
the deprtation was to secure the prime
ministers cooperation in blocking the
threatened enfranchisement of wom-
en- by means OF an amendment to the
governments Forthcoming franchise
bill, which includes the granting Of
votes to women. Asquith expressed
hearty sympathy with the object Of
the deputation and agreed with them
to grant franchise to women would
be political mistake of a very dis
'aatrous kind
