Coronado County
Club Doings

We are pleased to report that
effective work has been accomp-
lished by the officials and differ
ent committees of the Coronado
County Club. Letters sent by
the secretary to the different
members of the Legislature have
received immediate response, and
some of the members have al
ready pledged their hearty sup
port of the measure. Nearly
every member of both houses has
agreed to give the proposition
their careful consideration, which
can mean but one thing-a new
county.
In spite of the assertion of
our "would-bep political wise
acres that county division would
not come up at this session, we
are assured by such powerful men
as Senator Isaac Barth that
there is little doubt but what this
important matter will come be-
fore the legislature.
And knowing this-the bill
will be presented in the house by
Representative Lopez at the
earliest moment, and if its merits
are given the consideration prom
ised by the majority of the mem
bers, the result is certain.
We are pleased to note the at
titude of Representative Lopez
who has kept in constant touch
with the club and has been doing
good work among his fellow
members at Santa BE. His report
further emphasizes the fact that
the victory will be ours. We
have only 10 KEEP TOGETHER

santa re, N. W., MAI III
-Four members of the legisla-
ture, Julian Truiillc and j. T.
Lucero, representatives from Rio
Arriba county, and Luis Montoya
and Manuel Cordeva, representa-
tives from Taos county, are un-
der arrest here tonight charged
with soliciting and accepting
bribes from Elfego Bacu, of AL
buquerque, who set a trap for
them in the interest Of Judge A.
B. Fall, from whom they tried
to get money for their votes.
The four men made overtares
to Mr.. Baca last Saturday and
he made an appointment with
them for yesterday. They pro-
posed the sum of $1,000 to de-
liver their votes to Jud geI
Fall for United States senator.
Mr.. Baca could not pay so
much, but agreed to give them
$4,000 for their first three ballots
and to deal with them later if it
was thought advisable, He told
them that as the banks were
closed, he could not get the mon
ey on Sunday, but that he would
get it and give it to them today.
The program was agreed to.
Meantime, Mr.. Baca informed
Colonel Venceslao Jaramillo,
chairman of the republican state
central committee, and frame
up was arranged for taking the
wouldbe bribe takers red-hand-
ed. =
Jose D. Sena, clerk of the su-
preme court, was advised of the
affair, and he and Col. Jaramillo
and Mounted Policeman A. A.
Sena, went to a bath room in the
Palace hotel, adjoining room A,
where Mr.. Baca and the legisla-
tors we're to meet and complete
the purchase and sale.
The meeting took place about
6p. M, and not long after that
hour, Mr.. Baca had given each
of the gentlemen $500. He then
signaled the men stationed in bath
room. They burst into the room
and Officer Sena arrested the
ouartette. The men we're talIer
completely by surprise and were
so frightened that for a few
moments all appeared on Tho
verge of collapse. However, they
recovered quickly but did not at
tempt to make any denial of ac
cepting the bribe.
The trap for exposing the plo
was carefully laid. Itwas spruni
at the logical moment. AS fai
back as Saturday, the four guilty
men made oyertures to sell thei
votes to Mr.. Baca. The matter
was at once reported to the re
publican state executive commit
tee and Mr.. Baca was instructe
especially by Judge Fall, VIII
wanted the men caught i'll th
act and arrested, to aid the ceI
tral committee members in lay
ing plans to catch the men. Judg
Fall, to divert any possible su'
picion upon the bribe solici
ors, met them in his room Satul
day at the palace hotel, where, j
the presence of Mr.. Baca, he tol
them he would like to have thel
vote for him and would apprecia'
receiving their votes. He appea
ed at that time not to suspect
was money they wanted. He the
left the room and Mr.. Baca th'
conferred with the men alone.
Sunday Truiillo, Lucero, Mo
toya and Cordova grew more pc
sistent and even today approac
ed Mr.. Baca several times durir
the day. 1t was during one
these meetings that a definite a
pointment was made with t
men to meet them in the room
the Palace hotel where tn
would be paid the money.

IMPORTANT SCHOOL
 CONFERENCE CALLED
Board of. Education Will Meet With City COmmis-
 sion Saturday

Upon request of the board of edu- cation "to discuss questions of the ut most importance to the schools of Bir- mingham' the city commission will meet with the board of education Sat urday morning.
 A letter was received yesterday from John L. Parker, president of the board, requesting that a meeting be held next Friday night. The city commissioners could not meet at that time so 1t was agreed that Saturday be set aside for the purpose of discussing educational matters.
 It is believed that the conference will be one of the most important held in some time between the two bodies, as the educational work here is said to be somewhat crippled on account of finances and this meeting will in a measure determine what is to be done to improve the situation.
 The 1umors have been saying for some time that a very large bond is- sue will be asked for to construct an other high school and also an addi- tional grammar school. However, noth- ing has been determined upon In that connection by the two bodies.

that hatred Is murder. even if It do not go to the length of killing. So high is this standard amongst the Lords conse- crated people that for one of them to be even slightly angry would be serious matter: and if he were angry enough to call brother Christian "a fool' 1t would imply that he were in serious danger or the, second death-Gehenna. All Christs followers, therefore, must guard not only their actions but also their lips and the very thoughts of their hearts, that even in thought they shall be In fullest ac- cord with the very spirit of the divine law of love, and if on approaching the throne of grace they find any other spirit in their hearts they should go no further toward God, but first be receneiled to their brother. Under parable of arrest, condemnation and imprisonment our Lord teaches His disciples that If they have wrong feeling toward a brother they should make haste to settle the matter. Every moment of delay endangers their spiritual standing with the Lord and makes 1t more difficult for themselves In their relationship with God.
 The ntimation is that if we have wronged a brother and delay to make the matter right and the case come before the Lord for settlement, we will be obliged to suffer the full penalty of our neglect, the uttermost farthing." before we will be fully restored to divine favor and fel- lowship.

 ON WORKS MEASURE
Resolution Would Limit the Presidents Term to One
 Only of Six Years

Washington, May 14-The Senate judic' iary committee yesterday decided to report favorably the Works resolution. This restricts the presidential tenure of office 10 a single term of six years. A minority report favoring single term of four years also will be made from the com mittee The reports are expected in a day or so.
 There was no formal adoption of the measure, as it's phraseology has not been worked out, but this will be undertaken by subcommittee.
 It may be finally acted upon at a spe- cial meeting of the judiciary committee this week. In any event. it is expected to be reported immediately following the committees regular meeting next Mon day.
 The committee Is practically unanimous to make President ineligible for a sec ond term but four members of the com mittee favor making the single term four years instead of six

Christianity and the Law. Matthew VI 17-26.
 He that loveth his neighbor hath full filled the law.'-Romans xiii, &.
 The great teacher declared that He came not to destroy the law and the prophets but to fulfill them. While the law was spoken of as Moses law. it was really the divine law given to Israel as a basis for the divine covenant with that nation and Moses merely stood as mediator or the law covenant-that agreement py which Israel was obligated to keep the law, and God was obligated if they dld so to grant them everlasting life. Divine favor and the glorious privilege of being His instruments for the blessing of all nations, under Messiahs kingdom.
 The failure of even the most sincere Is- raelites to gain the promised everlasting life proved, not that Gods law was an unjust one, but that Israel. like the re- mainder of the world, shared by inherit ance Adamic weaknesses, which so im- paired their moral quality that they could not keep Gods perfect law, which our Lord defined to be whole-hearted love for God and Golden Rule" love for the neigh hor
