l only one or two places in

financial embarrassment Of Amer

ment that the United States or
any individual has deposited

subject to the draft from Euro

to establish credit for Americans
in Europe. Everywhere on the

On Visit.

Santa Fe, N. NJ, Aug. H.
Sad is the plight of Father A.
Rabeyrolle, for several years
pastor Of Guadalupe church in
this city, being transferred to
Las Vegas from here.
A few weeks ago he left on a

w. H. Andrews. former terri
torial delegate in congress, was
an easy victor over Elfego Baca
in the Republican primaries held
in Bernalillo county last Friday,
and is assured of the endorse
ment of the county convention
which meets tomorrow in his can
didacy for the Republican nomi-
nation for congress.
Mr.. Andrews is assured of 79
votes in the convention, leaving
only 20 votes for his opponent,
Elfego Baca, and there is as good
as an even chance that the An
drews total will amount to an even
higher figure when the conven-
ton meets. With this majority
in his favor, there is no doubt
that an instructed Andrews dele
cation will be sent to the state
convention in Santa Fe.
The vote Of the country pre-
cincts, which the Baca forces had
counted upon to go solidly for
their man; proved a distinct sur
prise and was a great disappoint-
ment to the supporters of the for
mer Socorro county man. From
the beginning the Andrews sup
porters had predicted that they
would make important inroads on
these supposed Baca strongholds,
but even they did not count upon
so sweeping a victory in the coun-
try precincts as they achieved.
A total of 81 certain Andrews
delegates were elected in the
county outside the city, as against
20 for Baca. The primaries in
the country were held in the af-
ternoon. and the result of the
voting became known in the city
before the polls were opened.
The effect was distinctly encour-
aging to the Baca forces, as it
meant that it would be necessary
for them to carry both city pre-
cincts in erder to go to the con-
vention with majority.
The vote in the city proved g
landslide for Andrews. In pre-.
cinct No. II, comprisingthe north.
ern half of the city, the Andrew;
delegates polled 281 votes az
against 123 for Baca, or more thar
two to one, while in Precinct No
26, where the heaviest vote wa
cast, Andrews received 329 a
against Isl for Baca, or a major
ity of over two to one. The tota
vote of the city precincts was 61
for Andrews and 274 for Baca.
The defeat of Baca was con
ceded by his supporters even be
fore the polls closed in the city
Sheriff Jesus Romero, Nesto
Montoya and others who hav
stood firmly for Baca, admitte
that Andrews had carried tn
county and stated that they woul
give hearty support to the Reput
lican ticket.
Mr.. Baca could not be seen las
night for a statement, but he hs

would not support Mr.. Andrews
even if he is nominated by the
Republicans.
Whipped to a frazzle, to a pale
blue pulp, in the city of Albu-
querque, the Baca-Romero forces
also were administered a stinging
rebuke in the outside precincts.
From the mountain precincts on
the east, to the river precincts in
the south and west, Don Jesus,
Senor Elfego and their henchmen
were trimmed enthusiastically
and decisively.
Jesus Romero carried Precinct
13, Old Albuquerque, which is his
home precinct. The Andrews
people, however, made no fight
in Precinct 13. Don Jesus was
present at the polls personally in
Precinct 8, Los Griegos, and
worked indefatigably in the in
terest of the Baca-Romero con-
tingent. w. H. Gillenwater was
present in this precinct in the in
terest of the Andrews candidacy.
Andrews easily won the four dele
gates allotted to Precinct 8. Mr..
GillenWater is not a resident of
Precinct 8, but his ranch is To-
Gated in that precinct and his
residence is just over the precinct
boundary line. The presence of
both Romero and Gillenwater in
this precinctwas atestof strength
between the two leaders. That
Gillenwater won out in a walk
significantly demonstrated tn e
fact that Don Jesus has lost his
power in the county, and that he
was lucky to carry his own pre-
cinct.
Credit for the victory in Pre-
cincts II and 26, city of Albu-
querque, is due to Capt. w. H.
Clearwater, who organized and
directed the campaign. Captain
Gillenwater enegetically took over
the campaign when Elfego Baca
and Jesus Romero arrived at the
conclusion several weeks ago
that they could drive the Repub-
licans Of the city of Albuquerque
to water and also make them
drink.
The fight for Andrews in the
outside precincts was directed by
Frank A. Hubbell. Mr.. Hubbell,
with his wide acquaintance among
the voters in the mountain anC
: river precincts, made a campaign
| which was effective, as was
} shown by the votes polled for the
Andrews delegates.

Husband Slain
Wife of Victim May Face
Trial as an Accessory
to the Murder.

Word comes from Deming to
the effect that the love for an
other mans wife and the ever
fatal triangle of two men and a
woman is responsible for the fact
that Gus West, coyboy % years
old and we'll known in this Sec
ton, is in the Grant county Jail
charged with the murder of Geo.
King in his little ranch house on
the Mimbres. King was found
dead Monday night, with a
Springfield rifle, bullet apparently
entering the back near the shoul-
der and came out near the pit of
the stomach. The bed was cov-
cred with blood and the room
had trails of blood all around,
where King had wandered before
death had overtaken him.
After the shooting, West and
Mrs. King went to the home of
Adolph Hirsh, about a mile from
the King ranch and reported that
West shot King in self defense.
West later disappeared and Off
GERS wired to Magdalena in search
of West, as his people live there.
The first trace of West was found
at the Diamond Bar ranch, where
he got meal. West was caught
25 miles from Magdalena by an
officer Of that place and turned
OVERT Sheriff McGrath of Grant
county, who took his prisoner
to Silver City.
The story which leads up to the
tragedy is similar to hundreds of
others, where a woman becomes
infatuated with a younger man
than her husband, who was about
30 years old. About two years
ago Mrs. King and West became
acquainted and a strong attach
ment sprang up between them,
when West became a boarder in
the King household. About a
year ago Mrs. King and West, it
is alleged, ran away together and
went to Texas. Through the eff
forts of two brothers of Mrs.
King, a reconciliation was affect
ed between husband and wife
and King went to Texas to bring
his wife back. kilograms found
on West after his arrest show
that Mrs. King sent him word tc
join her in Ell Paso, while she
was on her way with her husband
to New Mexico and that every.
thing was all right. West did
not meet them in Ell Paso, but
met them later in Deming anC
the trio travelled together by
train to Santa Rita, King fur
nishing West a railroad ticket
The three lived together at the
ranch house for ten days wher
the shooting took place.
Letters found on West show
that King had begged him tt
stay away from his wife. King:
six-shooter and roll of money
amounting to $l07 was found OF
West. 1t is alleged by the off
GERS that Mrs. King will b.
charged with being the accessory
to the murder. The case will b,
tried at the September term O.
court.

voters went to the chairman's
house to offer their ballots. The
chairmen warned them that they
were trespassing On private
ground and ordered them off the
premises. They went. Need
less to say they were not given
an opportunity before the polls
closed to cast their ballots.
In Precinct No. 3, Alameda,
Andrews secured two delegates,
Baca also receiving two delegates
in that precinct. In Precinct No.
4, Ranches de Albuquerque, An
drews easily won the four dele
gates. In Precinct 35, Los Du-
ranes, there was no opposition to
the Baca-Romero candidates and
they were elected. In Precinct
l, San Jose, the four delegates
will probably be divided, with the
chances in favor of the Baca-Ro-
nero delegates. In Precinct 8,
Los Ranches de Atrisco, the An
dreWs forces won the four dele
gates, and in Atrisco also, the
Andrews ticket elected two dele
gates with very little opposition.
In Precinct 2, Del Rio, the An
drews voters appeared in force,
but neither the precinct chairman
nor the Baca-Romero supporters
appeared at the voting place de-
signated.
1t was apparent throughout the
day in the various precincts that
the native population opposed Ell
fego Baca nightly. Indeed, the
Spanish-American voters were as
much opposed to Elfego as were
the Anglo-Americans. Bac a
worked like a trojan throughout
the day, but his work was inef-
fective. Those in close touch with
the situation did not hesitate to
say that Elfego had been double
crossed by his own people; that
many voters had solemnly pro-
missed him that they were for"
him, and then voted against him
at the polls.
Jesus Romero, who believed
until yesterday that he was in
vincible in Bernalillo county, was
a much discouragedman last night
Don Jesus conceded early yester-
day afternoon that he and Baca
had been beaten and that An
dreWs would control the conven-
tion by substatial margin. Ro-
nero did but little work, content
ing himself with being a specta-
tor at the polling place in Precinct
No. IL.
Immediately after announce
ment of the result of the vote
cast in the county, showing that
the Andrews candidates had been
elected by an overwhelming ma.
jority, Romero declared that he
would support Andrews in the
convention.
The campeign, especially in the
city precincts, resolved itself into
a fight in which Swat ElfegC
Baca" was the slogan. Elfegt
was swatted. Many men, who
ordinarily manifest no interesr
whatever in primaries, went tt
the polls especially for the pur
pose of registering a vote agains
Baca, and indirectly a protes
against Jesus Romero's attemp
to butt into affairs in the city O
Albuquerque.
Senator Andrews will go int

with at least 70 votes out of a to

Washington, Aug. l1-Min-
ing Of the North sea as part Of
the plan of the European war
not only may close most OF the
northern European ports to navi-
cation, but the gold laden cruis-
ers Tennessee and North Caro-
lima and neutral passenger YES
sels bearing Americans from Eu-
rope will be confronted with new
danger.
The American government
was formally advised during the
day by the British embassy here
that inasmuch as Germany had
been scattering mines indis,
criminately," Great Britain could
not longer refrain from planting
mines near her own ports.
1t is believed that Americans
in northern ports will remain
there for the present or make
their way south and southeast
to such ports as Marseilles or
Lisbon to obtain passage for the
United States.
May Change Itinerary
An itinerary for the cruisers
Tennessee and North Carolina,
bearing millions in gold for the
relief of Americans, has never
been announced, but as both
Great Britain and Germany have
given warning OF the dangers in
the North sea, it is being taken
for granted here that neither OF
the American warships will ven
ture into those waters. After
touching at Falmouth, England,
the tllcaSGre ships probably will
land at some port in France and
then head for the Mediterranean,
endeavoring, it is thought, to
reach Americans in both Ger
many and Austria from points
in the Adriatic.
Neutral Ports Blockaded
One diplomatist pointed out
today that the ports Of four neu-
trail nations, Norway, Sweden,
Denmark and the Netherlands,
as well as one of the belligerents
- Belgium - were practically
blockaded through the promis-
cuous planting OF mines in the
North sea.
The Hague convention which
regulates the use Of the contac
mines, stipulates that the belIi.
gerents shall undertake to de
their utmost "to render these
mines harmless within a limitec
time, and should they cease tc
be under surveillance, to notify
as to danger zones as soon a:

PRAISE FOR MINNESOTA Plan
Federal Public Health Service In
iorses State Board Program for
Fighting tuberculosis.

Endorsement of the Minnesota
state board of health's program for
the control of tuberculosis is con-
tanned in an August report of the
United States public health service.
This program, as recently developed
requires the reporting of all cases of
tuberculosis, the isolation of every
case OF open tuberculosis, either in a
sanatorium or at home, and the car
ing for all early cases of the disease
in such a way as to prevent its
reaching a stage that will become
dangerous to others, if possible.
The government report says: "The
action of the Minnesota state board
of health seems to be one of the most
logical and sincere efforts to control
the disease made by any health de-
paltment. The results obtained in
Minnesota during the next few years
will naturally be watched with much
interest by all associated with public
health administration.

Why Meat is High.

Mr.. James Walker, farmer, of
Scottville, Macoupin County, Ill, sold
at Chicago, August 10, 1914, five cars
of cattle $50 head) for $1I,7s4.15, Of
which AZ steers averaging 1475 lbs.
brought $1,000 per 100 pounds, or
S154.45 per head, while 26 steers av-
eraging 1878 lbs. brought 5000 per
100 pounds, or s144.70 per head.
These are the highest prices he ever
received for such stock. Mr.. Walker
is 81 years old and has fed cattle and
hogs for the Chicago market con-
tinuously for 81 years. Within this
period he has sold the best cattle as
low as s3.75 per 100 pounds and the
best hogs at $3.50, and has seen corn
selling at eight cents per bushel such
as now brings eighty cents.

w. S. Hammond, democratic candi-
date for governor delivered his key
note speech at Red Wing last Mon
day night, speech quite open and
frank. Thru this address it appears
that there will be but one issue in the
coming campaign and that on county
option. Mr.. Lee has placed such a
plank firmly in his platform, believes
in it and promises to do all in his
power to have county option law
passed. Mr.. Hammond says he will
not veto such bill if it passes the
Legislature, but he is doubtful if that
is the true solution Of the liquor traf-
fic. The views of both candidates
coincide on the proposed efficiency
and economy commission and vie
with one another in affirming their
belief in it. Mr.. Hammond made one
statement which will cause no little
criticism to be directed on his candi-
dacy namely, that there has been no
brewery domination Of politics in
Minnesota. He challenges Mr.. Lee to
bring proof of such a power being in
existence. This point is brought out
forcibly, he enumerates men promin-
ent in political circles and asks if any
one would connect them with brew
cry politics. Both candidates have
now fired their opening guns and for
month will tour the state to keep
themselves in the limelight.

MINNESOTA MINES OVER
HALF OF u. S. IRON
Production in 1913 was 62.37 Percent
of Country's Total, Says Gov
eminent Figures

Minnesota is not only the greatest
iron producing state in the Union.
but It produces more iron ore than
all the other states combined, accord
ing to figures announced today at the
Office Of the state auditor. The figures
were taken from the official report
Of the United States geological sur
|vey.
These figures, according to j. P.
Funk, chief clerk of the land depart
ment Of the auditors office, show that
Minnesota in 1913 produced 62.37
per cent of all the iron. ore mined in
the United States. The total output
fer the United States in 1913 was
61,9S0,437 long tons, an increase Of
100000 tons over the preceding
year
Twenty-eight states in all produce
iron ore, Michigan running second,
Alabama third, New York fourth,
and Wisconsin fifth. The production.
this year is expected to be lower than
last year because of a decrease in the
demand.
Minnesota state owned mines play
an important part in the iron produc-
ton and seven mines of the first
class will begin shipping early in the
year. The Hill-Annex mine, believ-
ed to contain 100000 tons Of ore,
is ready to operate as soon as the en-
gines are received. These mines are
on the Mesaba range, which alone
produces SO per cent of the total
United States output. !"

Up to the present time the war has
cost in money the enormous price of
$11 ,00O,000,000. Figures so large as
to be beyond the range of human un-
derstanding. Many believe they know
the meaning and significance of
waste of wealth and resources, but
still they have never seen it in its
bare shamefulness. In the present
crisis we get such a view of it as
will never be forgotten. In few
days the amount will have reached
$15,00O,00O,0O0 and as the war pro-
crosses the amount will ascend to
such sum that the world cannot
pay with all it's cash. Why this ex-
penditure? Human carnage! To see
