THE New Mexico courts are getting
quite tOuchy regarding what is said
about them. AS was recently report
ed In the LIBERAL a Judge e In
the eastern part Of the state had a

Martinez La Voc del Pueblo, up for
contempt. The editor in comment
ing on the recently adjourned term Of

The Southern Pacific and the South
western have been having some diff
ferences about the place where they
shall exchange freight and passengers.
They are now making the exchange
at e. Paso, which is satisfactory to
the Southern Pacific. The South
western wants to make the exchange
at Tucson, which will give the South
western q longer haul, and the South
ern Pacific a shorter one. Both roads
are doing more or less blufflng, the
Southwestern talking about building
to the cost, and the Southern Pacific
has announced a new route east,
which may be all right for freight.
but will not be so for passenger SER
vice. The route Is east from FL Paso,
over its own line to Alpine, then over
the Orient to Kansas City. The dist
ance by this route from Los Angeles
to Kansas City is 1897 miles, while
from Los Angeles to Kansas City over
the Southern Pacific and Southwest
ern is 1,763, a difference OF pa miles
In favor Of the present route, which
will make the big difference In the
passenger business.

THE Union Pacific has finally pro-
posed q scheme for disposing Of the
stock Of the Southern Pacific, which
1t owns, but which the Supreme court
decided 1t was against the Sherman

ing Of this stock, but each scheme
has been opposed by the attorney
generals ONCE at Washington. The
plan had to be adopted by the first OF

ACCORDING to the new law all taxes
unpaid on June LIST Of each year be-
come delinquent on that date. The
travelling auditor has compiled the
figures showing the amount Of collec-
lions In the various counties. OF the
amount Of taxes levied Grant county
stands fifth, the amount being $685..
3l249 being exceeded only by Der.
nalillo, Chaves, Colfax and San Mi
guel. In collections Grant county
stood third, the treasurer having col
lected Sl6s, 1892 and was only ex-
ceeded by Bernalillo and Coliax coun-
ties. In the percentage OF delinquent
taxes Grant county stands fifth with
1924 per cent delinquent. The coun-
ties having a smaller delinquent list
are Luna, Quay, Valencia and Nc
Kinley, which has the smallest per.
centage delinquent. only $50. 1t

Mrs. NJ. W. McGrath and the chill
dren cut short their stay 10 MIL
waukee, and returned to Lofdsburg
last week. She consulted DR.. Snyder,
whom she went to see regarding Miss
Ida's eyes. She had always supposed
that the trouble with her eyes was
caused by some medicine that had
been dropped In the eye by mistake,
but DR.. Snyder told her that was not
the cause; that The trouble was con-
genital, and its crisis happened to
come about the time the medicine
was dropped In her eye, bet which
medicine was not the cause Of the
trouble. DR.. Snyder never uses q.
knife, but reduces a growth on the
eye by absorption. He gave her some
medicine to apply to the eye, and to
take internally, enough to last three
months, and told her that he had
strong hopes Of saving ono ave, but
the other could not be saved. Vie
said she might as we'll go home, as
n medicine would 90 It's work, and
1t was not necessary for him to see
Ida. Mrs. McGrath had found living
in a Milwaukee hotel with four chill
dren was somewhat different from
living In her own hotel with the same
children and was glad to get back to
Lordsburg with them. She found the
heat very oppressive in Milwaukee,
as the air there was full Of moisture,
which she vas not used to. After her
return there vas q hot wave over
that section Of the country and four
people died and forty were Frustrated
in Milwaukee from the heat, and
when she read that In the papers she
