Wednesday R. H. Rinehart, W. j..
Rand and G. A. Martin, left El Paso
for Phoenix, to log the road for the
Ell Paso-P Phoenix race, place sign
boards where necessary, and to note
where repairs to the road should be
made. They intended to make Lords
burg that night, Tucson the second
night and Phoenix Friday, They did
not appreciate the job they had. 1t
takes more time to dig a hole and put
up a sign than they had figured on.
The road between Demlng and Lords
burg was soft from the recent rain.
The consequence was that instead of
getting here Wednesday night 1t was
along in the day Thursday before
they reached here.

The Deming-Silver City race last
Sunday was a hot one, and some good
time was made. The racers started
from Deming, drove to Silver City,
and returned. The running distance
was 1852 miles, The race was won by
Sherman in a Ford car, in two hours,
81 minutes, 16 2-5 seconds, or alta rate
of 1872 miles per hour. He had three
p%unctures and ran nine miles on a
rim, his car slipped over an embank-
ment, and had to be pulled back, he
had to slow down a couple Of times,
once for a COW in the road, and once
to pass a moving van. Connolly, in a
Chalmers 80 was but FIVE seconds be-
hind the Ford, and he met with no
accident. Hall in a Buick 30 was
third, and he beat all previous rec
ords. he had no trouble on the road.
Schloss in a REQ V chased Hall in,
with no road trouble. Wells in an r
NJ. f. 30 finished last. The c Gre
'ated a great deal Of interest both in
Silver City and Deming. 1t will prob
ably lead to many more road races.

Joe Wells, who drove the Z. NJ. f.
car in the Deming-Silver City race
last Sunday, which was the last car
in, was so chagrined at being defeat
ed that Sunday night after the race
he offered to bet $500 that Sherman
with his Ford could not beat him
again, over the same course, and he
would give the Ford ten minutes the
start. This offer was telegraphed to
Ell Paso, and Monday Mr.. Wells re-
ceived offers from each of the FL Paso
papers to join the betting section of
their circulation department.

1t will be remembered that when
the legislature vas electlng senators
there was quite a scandal over the ef-
forts some members of the house
made to be bribed, and that four Of
them were alleged to have been
caught In the act in room A of the
Palace hotel. They were tried before
the legislature and acquitted. They
we're indicted in Santa Fe county,
and one of them, ], P. Lucero, of Ric
Arriba county, was tried last week

case appealed. The trial of the Other

About once q month for the past
year the Douglas papers have switch
ed the Golden State limited from the
Southern Pacific, between El Paso
and Tucson, over the Southwestern,
giving dates on which the change
would be made. The last date was
the 18th Of this month. The Golden
State limited continues to travel the
Southern Pacific tracks between the
two towns, and the latest news in the
Douglas papers about the change is
that the date on which it is to be
made is not now definitely settled.

The Assessment Rolls.

Last week the LIBERAL published
a resume Of the findings of the ex-
perts the railroad companies had put
on the books of the different counties.
Since then the New Mexican, which
got a copy of the report, has been
publishing the reports on the differ
emit counties. From 1t we reprint the
report as to Grant county:
In Grant county during 1912 In
acreage property there we're 81 trans
fers with a total of S91, 124, which was
assessed at SIT, 565, or 1913 per cent.
In 1913 there were p transfers In
volving 1891 ,l24, which was assessed
at S35, 9S5, or 90 per cent.
In lot properties in 1912 there were
"a transfers, involving 10000 which
was returned for s21,S15, or 1874 per
cent.
In 1918 80 transfers Of lot property
brought S56,5O0 and vas assessed for
Sl6,424, or pol per cent.
There were no transfers in either
year which could not be located on
the tax rolls.
There were 4492 acres sold for an
average of S2O.29, which were assessed
for an average of 50 81 an acre in
1912, and in 1918 there were 6252 acres
sold at an average price OF 1852 So pei
acre, which was assessed at Sc. rs an
acre.
The conclusion, according to the
railroads, is that the 1918 assessment
should be increased 26.2 per cent on
lands and IA 5 per cent on lots tc
equal a full one-third value.
This does not make a very gooc
showing for Assessor Shipley. II hi
had studied the transfers as recorded
In the adjoining office of the county
clerk, which we're open to his inspec
Jion he could have raised those 3
acreage transfers and 80 lot transfer
TO the proper amount, and they woult
have given him a tip as to the actua
value of adjoining property, and en-
abled him to have made a much bet
ter showing on his assessment roll. l
is entirely probable that the assessor
like many other county officers, wa
80 busy last winter, when the legisia
ture was In session, endeavoring t
get what the county officers consider
ed a reasonable bill providing 70
county officers pay passed by the leg
islature that he did not have time t
check his returns with the count
clerks record. The legislature wi
not be in session next winter, and h
will have plenty Of time to investigat
the deed records, and get a bette
line on the actual value Of real estat
in the county.
. Compared with the other assessor
of the state Mr.. Shipley's record

There was a tragedy at the Green
House Sunday. Mrs. Marchman. who
has been running the place, had been
quarreling for several days with her
man, J.. B. Pope, over money and
other matters. Sunday the quarrel
was renewed and the woman told
Pope to leave the house. Pope had
an automatic sixshooter in his hand,
and instead OF leaving he took a shot
at the Marchman, and Immediately
turned the gun on himself, put a shot
in his brain, from which he died in a
few moments The shot hit the woman
In the lower part of the abdomen, and
ran down into the thigh. DR.. De-
Moss extracted the bullet, and says
there is no danger of the woman dying
unless blood poisoning should set in,
the bullet did not penetrate the alb
dominal cavity. ]. B. Pope, the would
be murderer and suicide, was a man
some thirty years old, who had lived
here several months, with no visible
means Of support except his connec
tion with the Green House. From
letters found on him 1t vas ascer
tanned he had relatives at Shannon
