is considerable sand on the road be
tween san Juan hill aud point
about ten miles west Of Lanark. The
rest of the road is splendid. except
the two Malpai beds. which are alb
solutclv dangerous. They cut tires
and there is also danger 10 the crank
ease and transmission housing from
the sharp rocks. There is also sand
in one of these Malpai beds that
makes the pulling very diSagreeable
and more dangerous as II Is trench-
erous. One Of the rocks cut Il biz

not an accident of any other char
acter to either of the machines on
the entire trip. although the heavy
pulling heated the engines consid-
crably. Water is obtained at inter
walls of every few miles, however, So
that there is no trouble on this ac'
count. Any 30-horsepower ear ought
to make the trip easily on high speed

NEW TARIFF BILL
MAKES MANY REDUCTIONS
Some Comparisons Made With the
Payne-Aldrich Measure

Removal of all tariff from many
articles of food and clothing broad
reductions in the rates of duty on all
necessaries of life; an increase of
tariff on many luxuries; and new
income tax that would touch the
pocket of every American citizen
whose income exceeds $4,000, are
the striking features of the new Dem
ocratic tariff revision bill presented
today to the House.
Sugar would be free of duty in
1916, the bill proposing nm immedi
ate % per cent reduction and the
removal of the remaining duty in
