Seeinq Is Believing

The Liberal made Deming visit
last week and fell into the hands Of
four ruthless Knockers, Messrs. Bcdi-
chek, McKeyes, Ferguson and
Vaught. Mr.. Fcrguson's I'D car
was commandcercd, and the party
went out to see wheat field. which
was said to be Furnishing, south of
town. II is generally conceded that
small grains. like wheat and oats. do
not do well under irrigation. Of
course all rules fail when applied to
the Mimbres Valley.
l.. l.. Gaskell plowed up field and
planted it to n Siberian wheat, irri-
gated it, and it grew. 1t is all head
ed out and just beginning to turn. 1t
is as fine field of wheat as the Lib
cral ever saw and he was raised in
n wheat country. Mr.. Gaskcll also
has an oat, field that looks fine. al.
though il has not yet headed out, and
he has fine field Of potatoes that
are doing well, and for quick
money crop has about fifteen hun
drcd chickens, all sizes from those
just Matched, through the frying
sizes TO mature stock. In driving 10
and from his place, by different
roads, several fine places were
passed, and every place there was
any cultivation the crops were doing
nicely. There is but small per cent
of the ground in the immediate vi
entity of town that is cultivated, but
the rest will be as soon as The own
ers can get around to do it, or sell
it TO some one who will. While the
crops look good it is stated as a fact
that there are but few professional
farmers in the valley. They arc from
all classes Of people and professions,
and are mel who got the land fever,
and wanted to be farmers. II is pro.
bable that most Of them will make
good, for they have gone at the
proposition, not because they had to,
but deliberately and of their own free
will, and from liking for the work,
and such men generally succeed

HOTEL KEEPER TO GET
PUBLIC HEARING
City Attorney Rules That Roomin 6
House License Cannot Other
wise Be Revoked.

The city attorney having given it as
his opinion that the commission has no
right whatever to revoke rooming
house license without public hearing,
the city commission yesterday rescinded
it's recent action revoking the license
of Mrs. Mellor, proprietor OF the La
Nell hotel, and set Tuesday, Septem"
ber 16, as the date for public hearing
on the license aforesaid.
On complaint of the chief Of police,
who informed the commission that the
La Nell was common nuisance and
that the proprietress had frequently
broken the liquor law and had hoNn
convicted several times, the commission
ordered her license recalled about two
weeks ago.
Acting for the police department,
Moroni Gillespie is now suing in the
district court for a restraining order
against Mrs. Mellor, preventing her
from conducting the hotel on the
ground that it is common nuisance.
The action is now pending, though q
temporary restraining order is in force

SAYS CHEESE MAKERS
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY
State Food and Dairy Department Will
Encourage Development of Indus
try In Uintah Basin.

The state food and dairy department
decided to encourage the manufacture
of cheese and dairy products in the
Uintah basin, following report made
10 Commissioner Willard Hansen by j.
C. Lambert, dairy inspector, upon his
turn yesterday from an extended IN
vestiigation trip through that portion
of the state.
Accompanied by c. E. Condie, inspec-
tor OF weights and measures, Mr.. Lam
bert visited the dairies, stores, slaugh-
ter houses and shops of the reservation.
The gist of their verbal report was
that there is big chance for develop
ment of an excellent dairy business in
the basin, as there is enough hay and
TO spare.
The people need more dairy cattle,
and with their acquisition the estab-
lishment OF cheese factories is advised,
owing to the distance from railroads of
most towns.
Although the Uintah country is at
present very much like frontier and
It's people pioneers, everything is being
done in first-class way and the sani,
tary conditions are excellent.

Mr.. Peck had the body placed in a

ouested to be buried beside his wife.
Bad roads were encountered by the
party, which consisted of Mr.. Peck, R,
Fl. Hambley, an undertaken Of San
Diego, and B. F. Mayo, mechanician,
and the final stretch, according to Mr.

Limitata- =! Feature.

The principal feature OF the new ordi-
nance Is the limitation of the number OF
saloons. This feature follows the provi-
sion Of the Los Angeles liquor ordinance.
where II is said TO have met with gem
eral satisfaction, There are al present
is estimated at $4,000. making the new
ordinance eliminate thirty saloons.
The proposed ordinance provides for the
gradual elimination OF these saloons. No
new licenses will be granted until the
number falls below one to each 1000 OF
popula ton. and the commission may in
It's discretion decline TO renew come OF
the present licenses, Upon the revocation
OF any license no now license will be
granted until the number falls below that
contemplated by the ordinance.
With the limitation of the number OF
saloon licenses, the value OF each license
will greatly Increase and the theory is
that the saloon proprietors will exercise
great care In observing all regulations
strictly, in order that their Licenses may
not be revoked

OWEN IN RACE FOR

Representative Of President
VIII Suggest Appointment
of Cache County Man.

Will r. King, Of Portland, Ore, who
is considered as the personal represen-
tative of President Wilson in invest
eating candidates for federal appoint
ments, will suggest to President Wilson
the latter part of this week the name
of Evan R. owen of Cache county as
a compromise candidate for United
States Marshal for Utah.
On the way TO the national capital
Mr.. King stopped at Ogden and wired
to Chauncey P. Overfeld of the state
executive committee Of the Democratic
party to confer with him at Ogden on
the marshalship situation. Mr.. King
made it plain to Mr.. Overfied that the
president was eager to name Il successor
to Marshal ]. II. Anderson and that it
was the presidents g wish that the Dem
ocrats of Utah agree on q candidate.
Mr.. Overfeld went over the list of
candidates for the place with Mr.. King
and declared that in his opinion there
was not possibility Of the supporters
of George A. Storrs withdrawing in
favor OF Aquila Nebeker or vice versa.
Mr.. King then suggested a compromise
candidate. Mr.. Overfield acquiesced and
proposed Evan R. Owen as the "dark
horse 1t is understood that several
prominent Democrats have beon groom
ing Mr.. Owen for several weeks for
introduction into the marshalship race
at the psychological moment, but have
kept their plans profound secret.
Mr.. Owen was candidate for sec
retary of state on the Democratic ticket
in 1908 and ran we'll ahead of his ticket.
BE was spoken of last year as a can
n
and rendered the nomination for secre-
tary Of state but declined to be can
didate for any place ON the ticket.
