made of the Mimbres underflow at the
Jacobsen ranch. % miles north of Dem

the same old 100000 parts Of water. In
the same month and year an analysis
of the well near Haywood disclosed
only $40 parts of solid matter. In
May, 1904, the Mimbres Hot Springs
water showed only "a parts of solid
matter.
To show that the great volume of
water coming through the Silver City
draw is good stuff an analysis was
made in February, 1904 of water near
Silver City, with the result that 35 8
solid parts were found
In February, 1902, Hal Kerr's well
near Cambray, 26 miles southeast. gave
up only 57.6 parts solid matter. and
Hal will vouch that it is all good
stuff In February, 1906 a well six
miles west of Deming was analyzed and
showed only 30 parts of solid matter.
We have given the dates and results
of these several analyses in order to

results Of tests made in var

cinity of Deming:
The Graphic wants to always be able
to tell the why and wherefore of things,
and has therefore dug up several an
alyses of Mimbres Valley water. which
we have long advertised as being the
purest in the world in so large a body
The paper, and in fact the whole office
force. have been boosting water day
ana night for nearly two years, and the
whole town takes pleasure in Joining
IN the chorus of praise.
Now as Maj. Waddll says: We've
got the dope"
Take, for instance. the city water
supply. In August, 1906 the govern
ment made an analysis of water from
the city well and it disclosed only 80
parts OF solid matter to 100000 parts of
water In February, 1910. the purity
had been increased three parts. the
analysis disclosing only 30 parts of
soIld matter, we mean in good old

There was a craning Of necks to-
ward Senator Kerns seat, but he was
not visible In the chamber.
Lorimer repeatedly challenged the
minority members of the investigating
committe, Senators Lea. Kern ana
Kenyon, to refute his statements or to

The Illinois senator took exception
to Mr.. Kern's reference to his asso-
ciates, among whom were "fiinky
Dink" Kenna, NANNY" Abrahams and
John Broderick.
Two of these men, he said, had been
referred to by the Indiana senator as
saloon keepers" but that reference
had been stricken out OF tho printed
record whether because the senator
had been chasing ghost at Baltimore
and was afraid to meet the saloon
men" he could not undertake to say.
The reference to Kenna afforded
Mr.. Lorimer another opportunity to

"None," he said, "have lifted up more
of the fallen or helped more people on
to a better life than Michael O. Ken
ma, and | like to call attention to his

Mr.. Lorimer decared that when he

He declared 1t had been shown con-
clusvely that Hines was In Washing

have taken place. Funk's statement
that the International Harvester com
