Jas. Truman has recovered from
the effect Of the bullet that was fired
into him at Bedrock recently. There
has been more mystery about this
shooting than any that has occurred
in a long time. The LIBERAL report
ed that M. G.. Cloudt fired the shot,
and it is now reliably informed that
Mr.. Cloudt did no shooting. All he
did was to borrow a revolver from a
seventeen year-old boy, and hit Tur-
man over the head with it, and hold
him while another man did the shoot
ing. Every one from Bedrock that
the LIBERAL has interviewed was in
tensely ignorant about the circum-
stances. However, 1t has gathered
from various sources the news that
this dance was the third one that had
been held at the school house within
a week; that at all dances there was
an abundance of liquor, and most of
the men were under its influence, one
seventeen year-old boy having been
sent home dead TO the world that
nearly all the men carried sixshooters;
and that every effort is being made to
hush the matter up, and prevent an
Investigation by the jury. The neces-
sary killing Of M. X. Ballou will prob
ably have an influence toward for
cling an investigation. Ballou was In
the habit Of carrying a gun, and max
ing gun plays, which habit cost his
life. The grand jury which invest
igates the Ballou case will probably
make an investigation Of all sixshooter
plays that may have happened, and
especially this one.

THE LIBERAL has received, through
the courtesy Of Secretary Jafa, a copy
Of the printed proceedings OF the con-
stitutional convention. From It it is
learned that the Hon. James N. Up
ton, Of Demlng, when he refused to
vote for or against the constitution on
election day, only continued the rec
ord he madei In the convention. When
It came TO voting on the adoption OF
the constitution the republicans voted
for Il, most Of the democrats voted
against 10, TO make their record good,
but Mr.. Upton refused to vote, and is
recorded on the proceedings as not
voting IL Is notorious that Mr.. Up
ton objects TO making a record that
can be referred TO in the future, but
on this occasion and on election day
he made a record by attempting not
TO make a record.

THE FL Paso Times quotes the New
Mexican that in the past five years
there have been over 300 murders In
this territory; that not all the muir
derers have been punished; that not
all the punishments have been ade-
quate. The Times claims that this
record Of unpublished crime is largely
the result Of political corruption. The
Times hopes that after admission
New Mexico will more strictly en-
force the law. The Times closes It's
editorial by expressing the hope that
the LIBERAL, when IL feels inspired
70 jump on El Paso will remember the
300 murders in the territory. The
LIBERAL has v dumped on" ri
Paso because OF the murders commit
ted there. There is no community
that can be free from killings. 1t has,
on occasions, expressed It's sorrow
that murder was looked on IN FL Paso
as a matter OF 10 great moment, that
because the market rate consideration
was seldom over a thousand dollars,
killing were considered a matter Of
course, and that either there was no
punishment meeted out TO the killers,
or that IL vas entirely inadequate.
Notwithstanding the alleged corrup-
ton Ia New Mexico murderers have
been punished here. Within the past
five years, the period undeFdiscussion,
the extreme penalty has been melted
out on more than one occasion, II
the coming Of statehood to the terri
tory should produce with US a spirit
Of lightly locking on the crime Of
murder similar 20 the spirit In our
nearest state II woald be deplorabie,

THE EDeming Headlight has dis
covered that all is not we'll with the
Albuquerque Tribune = Citizen. A
number Of Albuquerqueans recently
went down to Deming, where they
were shown the wonders that had
been accomplished by pumping water
on the land, and there was much talk
about Deming, and the Mimbres val
ley in Albuquerque, when the Citizen
printed an article urging that the Al
buquerqueans quit talking Deming,
and boost Albuquerque. The Head
light shows that this indicates that
the Citizen is but a local sheet, devot-
ed entirely to the interests of 1t home
town, and not to the interests Of the
territory, and suggested that this be
remembered in the outlying districts
when the Citizens solicitor comes
around, hunting new subscribers.
During the late campaign it was dis.
covered that the Citizen was devoted
to but small portion Of the territory,
and by its fight against statehood
showed that it did not have the in.
terests Of the people at heart.

on a national road TO extend from

is nov working on the road from
Phoenix to Roosevelt, to Globe, to
the ella valley, where it plans to have
the government bridge the San Car
los and the ella, because they are in

river TO ~Solomonville, then to Clifton,
and after leaving Clifton it enters the
forest reserve, and runs northeast to
Mckinley county New Mexico, where
1t will comet with Albuquerque, and
the Canine Real, and go EAST over
the Santa Fe trail. Col. Dell Potter,
OF Clifton, is largely interested in this
road. and has arranged with the For
est people TO build the road through
the reserve, from Clifton to the north
east, as it will give the Forest an
opening to market lumber and a road
ON which it may bring in men IN a

built from Clifton to Duncan, and II
is proposed to build one from Lords.

THE trouble with the prohibitions
lists, that Is the leaders OF tile New
Mexican division Of them. is that they
lack common honesty. They we're de-
feated and disappointed in not get
ting a prohibition section into the
constitution, and set about to defeat
the adoption OF the constitution.
This was their privilege, and while
the people thought they did not use
the best OF taste, no serious objection
could be made to their opposition, es-
pecially as It was found that they did
not carry the mass OF their party with
them. When the vote was counted
and II was found that the constitution
had carried by more than 5000 major
ity 1t vas thought that the leaders OF
the prohibitionists would be satisfied.
However, they we're not, and last
week had their representative appear
before President Taft, and the house
committee on territories, and argue
in favor of rejecting the constitution
They claimed that 1t was prepared by
a convention largely made up of bar
tenders and saloon keepers, and that
IL had been adopted by coercion and
bribery. The prohibitionlsts know
this is about as far from the truth as
they could get, but they never turned
a hair in making the accusation.
While these charges we're being tele.
graphed over the country by the as.
ISOLATED press there appeared the
February number of the Southwest
ern Anti-Saloon ISSUE" the official
organ of the prohibitionists in New
Mexico, and on the first page vas a
cartoon showing Uncle Sam engaged
in sewing a star labelled New Mexico
on the flag, and underneath in big
black letter was the legend; "Anti'

hood" The LIBERAL has had oeca,
sion in the past TO prove that the
democratic party was acting dishon
estly, and it has been obliged to ad
NIT, on occasions, that the action o.
the republican party was not entirely
honest but never has it had occasion
to point out such an example of pol
itical dishonesty as this. However
the LIBERAL is glad to record tina
this dishonesty does not permeate TIT
party, but is mostly confined to TN,
leaders, such men ae the Rev. j. l

the eastern part of the territory
where the prohibitionists are tn,
strongest, and where the constitution
was carried by a big vote, the prohl
bitionists have telegraphed K Presl
dent Taft, telling him that the con
stitution is satisfactory, and the cleo
tion was an honest one.

At best, the plaintiff introduced
only part of his evidence regarding
the contract binding the defendant,
whatever it may have been, whether
directly with him or indirectly with
him as one made for his benefit by
The Order of Washington. On ac-
count of the action not having been
brought in the name of the real party
in interest; for the reason that the
testimony is not sufficient within the
statute of frauds to prove the con-
tract alleged in the complaint; and
also because of the omission of the
contract alluded to in the documents
by which the defendant sought to
bind the plaintiff, the evidence was
insufficient to authorize the submis-
sion of the cause to the jury and
hence the judgment of the court be-
low is reversed and the cause re-
manded for further proceedings not
inconsistent with this opinion.
