II has always been customary
when reading of a new railroad
to be built to say that the editor
was good at building railroads on
paper. But j. Wight Giddings Of
the Taos Valley News has taken
the lead of the editors in the
southwest and has resigned as
editor for few weeks in order
to devote his time to the building
of the Taos, Sierra Nevada & San
Francisco railroad. Ali doubts as
to whether the road will be built

What Free Wool
Means TONewMexiCO

Santa Fe, June I4-Hon. Mala-
quisas Martinez, member Of the
constitional convention, territorial
coal oil Inspector, Republican boss
OF Taos county, tiller of the soil,
and sheep owner discussed the
proposed removal of the tariff on
wool this morning before he started
for his home in Taos.
while the farmer and sheep
men and business people generally
of Taos county are feeling fine
over the splendid crops that are
promised this year, while they
realize the courtesies of Jupiter in
sending rain thus allowing alfalfa
to be cut a month before the time
last year; while they feelthat this is
tobe the the most successful farming
year in the past two decades, they
are alarmed over the proposed re-
moval of the tariff on wool.
1t is on exaggeration to say that
a severe blow will be dealt all New
Mexico if this removal of the duty
should be accomplished. Well do
remember the days of free trade
under Grover Cleveland and what
happened to our sheep interests.
In those days wool which sold last
year as high as fourteen cents
dropped to four and FIVE and six
cents a poundl And in those days
there was plenty of free or very
cheap grazing land; in those
Cleveland free trade day, the cost
of living was low; the wages of
sheep clippers were also low.
In this year 1911 one sees a
vast change has come overthe coun-
try and New Mexico has not been
passed by. The rental of grazing
land is high; it costs good money
these days for sheep to roam.
The wages that must be paid
to wool clippers are high indeed in
comparison to those of Cleveland
days and sheep herders and clip
pers must be we'll fed. They
have to live on the fat ofthe land
and they get what they want for
their three squares per day.
Taking these thing into consid-
Grafton, | say what is going to
happen if wool drops from IA to 4
cents a pouRd1 There are $50, ooo
sheep in our county alone and any
tinkering with the tariff to reduce
it would strike a body blow tc
this great industry"

Silver Wedding

Washington, June I2.-The re-
ception which the president and

l0f the physicians still wish her to
aeoid excitement. Miss Helen
Taft will stand by her fathers side
to receive the guests.
This will be the third silver
silver wedding celebration of a
president of the United States
and his wife. President and Mrs.
Grant celebrated their twenty
fifth anniversary on August ~,
1873, at their cottage at Long
Beach, and President and Mrs

1877, to celebrate twenty-five years
of married life.

Did You Read
Your New Meter?

An interestinff story is being told
by F. II. Alpers, the superintend-
ent Of the water company, regard
ing the first efforts Of some Of our
citizens in reading their water met
ers after their installation DIR.
Bass who has one of the finest
lawns in the city, took time from
his other business and gave his
bluegrass a watering. After get
ting through he went to see how
much water he had used. Upon
testing the pulse Of the meter be
saw to his horror that it register
ed 1000 gallons. Alter collecting
his scattered wits he looked at the
thermometer again and confirmed
his worst fears. Hastily deciding
that two heads we're better than
one in a critical case, he called up
DIR. Masten to get his advice. DIR.
Masten came post haste and after
examaming his patient he said that
it was a new disease for this part
of the country, but that gas meters
wereafflicted in that wav in the east
The two doctors then called in H.
c. Ellis, the ieweler, (although be
had no diplomat and he looked
wise and said when they do get
to going wrong they 60 some."
Then it occurred to them that pro-
badly the superintendent might be
able to tell them what was wrong.
He WAS phoned for and came, read
the meter and it registered 400
gallons. What the three gentle
men said is not recorded.
After returning from a visit TO
Missouri c. o. Pease had a meter
put in his house to keep him from
drinking too much water. After the
meter was in he thought that be
would take a bath, in order to get
line on the amount of water nee
essary for such purpose. He filled
his bath tub and reveled in the
luxury of bathing in the finest wat
er in the southwest, forgetting all
about the instrument that kept tab
on the amount of water that went
into the tub. After performing
his ablutions he hiked to the meter
to see how much water it had taken
to get him clean. But when he
looked at the register he thought
that Black Bart and Jesse James
we're philanthropists compared to
what that meter would do to a mans
pocket book. 1t read to him $50
gallons. He left the house and
did not use any more water that day
He finally found the superintend-
ent and sent him to see what was
wrong with the pesky thing, To
the superintendent it read IS gal
onsreported the fact to Pease who
was greatly relieved and said
thet he guessed he could afford
to take another bath.
Superintendent Alpers has put a
lock on the meters of the parties so
that no one can read them but him.
self, but after their experience they
can hardly keep from being a bit
careful about the amount of water
they use.

supervision of senatorial elections
in congress instead of delegating
it to the states as proposed by the
