Season.
Falling on the back of his head when

October 18th, between two picked
teams at Mount Saint Mary's College,
,Dear Emmitsburg, this county, William
English, of Troy, New York, and a
member of the Senior Class, sustained
a conclusion of the brain from which he
died half an hour later.
1t being a holiday, there were two
classes at the college, and the day was
given over to recreation. Early in the
morning number of the members Of
of both the Senior and Junior
classes gathered on the field and picked
two teams for a game of foot ball. But
few of them were regular players
English was playing on the Senior team.
Receiving the ball, he plunged through
the line and started on long, swift
dash down the field 4 player on the
opposing team started for him and
tackled him low.
They came together with tremendous
force both going at full tilt, and Eng
fish went over backwards. The back
of his head struck the ground hard.
He appeared uninjured and getting up
STARTED to where the teams were lining
up for the next scrimmage. After walk
ing few yards he fell over. When
the other players rushed to him they
found him unconscious.

creation of the National Park OF 'ne
Cliff Cities is to be pushed for pass
aye in congress upon the return Oh
United states Senator Thomas D.
Catron to washington, D. c., but the
proposed area is to be cut down more

hill is TO include in the park the lands
west Of the Rio Grande from the Santa
Clara to the northern boundary OF the
Canada de Cochiti grant and WESTWARD

PROFESSIONS ARE
SADLY OVERCROWDED
MANY LAWYERS, DOCTORS AND

TRY SCHOOLS

Santa Fe, Sept. 10.-That the pro-
fessions are sorely overcrowded is
manifest by the many applications
that Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion Alvan N. White is receiving from
professional men who want to teach.
Although salaries do not average $500
a year, physicians, lawyers, theolog-
ians find them quite desirable in view
of the lack of patients, clients and
parishioners from which to derive an
income Today applications were re-
ceived from two physicians licensed
to practice in New Mexico, one of
whom has also a license to practice
in Texas and Oklahoma, while anoth-
er has a license in California, who asks
for COUNTRY school.
What warning to parents" said
Superintendent White, "who out Of
false pride force their boys into pro-
fessions for which they have no
knack, while they are especially fitted
by temperament and ability to be
mechanics or farmers. Such boys in
white shirt sleeve jobs are bound to
be failures, unhappy, unsuccessful,
while if they followed their natural
trend and learned some honest trade
or how to farm, they would be happy
and eventually well to do. Tt is hoped
that the serious pursuit of vocational
training and instruction in agriculture
in New Mexico public schools will

mayor of Santa F'e and democratic
war horse, whose personal popularity
has won him many a victory at the
polls even in strongly republican pre-

surance of United States Senator Tho
mas B. Catron that he is perfectly ac-
ceptable to him and would not be op
posed for confirmation However, as
matters stand, General Charles F.
Easley has practically the united dem-
ccratic organization in back Of his
candidacy and has the promise of
Postmaster General Burleson that he
would reconsider his former decision
that General Easley is too advanced
in years to be considered, as the gen.
eral is more than ten years younger
than Judge E. V. Long, recently ap-
pointed postmaster at East Las Vegas.

A BILLION Hangs

TRADE
WARS EFFECT UPON 100000 AM
ERlcANS TOLD BY AN
EXPERT

Washington, Sept 10.-The prospec-
tive effect of the interruption of the
imports of hides and skins upon United
States industries; whose output ag-
gregates more than billion dollars
year and which pay to their 100000
employees about $2O0,OOO,OOO annually
in wages is the occasion of good deal
OF discussion at present.
This is of especial interest in the
Mississippi valley, which turns out
over $1O0,OOO,OOO worth of leather
year. $13O,OOO,O 900 worth of boots and
shoes and enough other leather pro
ducts to bring the grant total for that
valley up to $3.50, 100000 year.
viii the upsetting of conditions In
the available supply Of material for
the manufacture of leather, the in
creased demand for leather and its
products. and the cutting off Of the
supply of leather manufactures from
lsbroad, increase or decrease the ac-
tiyities and earnings of our leather
manufacturers and affect materially
the earnings of their 300O 900 employees
of whom fully one-fourth are in the
Mississippi Valley?
This is an inquiry difficult even FOL
experts in leather production to an
swer, but it is practicable for the sta
ltigtician to at least present the facts
las to the inflow of the required raw
material the normal outflow of the
finished product and the markets
which supply the raw material ano
th. other markets which take the fin
ished products.
About half the hides and skins uset
in the leather industry of the unite'
States are imported. Of cattle hides
about one-third were imported at tn
: time of the last census, but the fallln
off of the number of animals slaugE
a tered since that time renders it prot
n able that nearly half the cattle hide
"a used in the United States are now in
q ported. OF the calfsldns used prob;
d bly, three-quarters are imported; thi
N is also true of the sheepskins. OF tn
ID goatskins used practically all are in

SANTA FE KICKS
ONASSESSMENT
RATES
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE D (.
cLARES TAXATION SYS-
TEN is ALL WRONG

Santa Fe, Sept. 10-A special meet
ing of the chamber of commerce last
evening wrestled with the assessment
and tax problem. Those present were
agreed that the assessment and tax
system of the state is not what it
should be and that Santa Fe city
bears disproportionate assessment
as compared with the rural districts
and as compared with such counties
as Sandoval, Rio Arriba and Taos. 1t
was also brought out that the major
ity of citizens are not on the assess
ment rolls at all and that much per-
scpal property. including cash, mort
cages, notes and other evidences of
Indebtedness escape taxation alCogeth-
er. That the 5000 exemption law is
a cloak for tax dodgers was also en-
phasized.
But when it came to a applying
remedies the agreement was not sc
noticeable for each man had a cure
of his own and not one was willing tC
acknowledge that HIS assessment Oh
his taxes are less than what they
ought to be. However, the discussion
resulted in much better understand
ing of the difficulties that confront
the state board of equalization ant
made more apparent the necessity Of
legislation at the next session of the
legislature. Some favor was found fol
the proposition to have the state de
rive its revenues entirely from the ta1
on railroads and other intertcounty
corporations while the counties and
municipalities derive their income en-
ti,ely from local taxation.
Las Vegas optic., 1914-09-10

viii be realized that this question to
the effect of possible shortage of this
material is one of vast interest TO the
Mississippi Valley and its manufactur-
ers and their workmen.
The imports of last year included
over S2,O0O,0O0 worth of horse skins,
So 600 0OO of buffalo hides from india,
nearly $1,000, 900 worth of kangaroo
Skins from Australia, 100000 pounds OF
pigskins and 170OO pounds of fish
skins. The total value of this collec'
ton was s12O,OOO,0OO.
OF the 2SO,OOO,O00 pounds Of cattle
hides imported in 1914 only 61,OOO,OOO
came from Europe, the remainder
caiefly from Canada, Mexico, Argen-
tina and Uruguay.
OF the $22,OOO,O0O worth OF goat
sh;ns amounting to S5,OOO,OOO pounds
orly 100000 pounds came from Eu
rome the remainder chiefly from In
dia China. Africa, South America ano
Mexico.
OF the 7O,OOO,OOO pounds of sheep
skins about half was from Europe anC
Of the S2,OOO,OOO pounds of calfskin'
three-fourths came from Europe.
So it does not seem that the suppl!
Of the most important OF the material
hides of cattle and goatskins-wil
be seriously depleted by cutting OF
IEuropes supplies.

stood that the board of county COM
missioners Of Rio Arriba county would

lican was elected, as seemed certain,
tha tthe senate would seat him in
