SHOW GAVE IT'S PARADE

a queer circumstance happened to-
day when IL was at first thought there
would be no parade on account of the
city authorities refusing to allow the
circus to pull off their parade because
they secured grounds just outside the
city limits in order to save 500. the
license fee demanded by the city. This
high license for travelling circuses is
made to keep out those who cannot
afford to pay same and To cut down
the number Of travelling shows from
stopping here and carrying out money
without giving much in return
The Barnes shows have n reputation
as being educational, and no doubt il
is to n certain extent, but we think
any show company should be forced
to pay something. The local picture
show is educational but that is no rca-
son why IL should be allowed To run
without license. Since il was advcr-
tised and there were n number of pco
pie down town to see the parade, we
were in favor Of letting the show put
on its parade without molestation and
the merchants felt the same way. but
when show company puts up the eN
cuse that the license Is too high and
then bills the town anyway putting up
its tents out Of town we think il poor
business policy. The crowd will have
the excuse that il Is too far to walk
and therefore the circus is the loser
after all
IL was nothing to the city council
whether the show paycd or not but
they took the stand because they were
elected by the people TO run things in
n business way. II they would cut
down the license there would he all
kinds of little travelling shows landing
here every week or so and the good
hard-earned money might be taken
out Of circulation in this part Of the
country. When the show company re-
fused To put up the license required by
the city ordinance we believe the city
council should have served notice on
the public that no parade would be
allowed then the citizens asked not to
patronize the show. This would have
been the best for all concerned.
After consulting the business men
and few of the prominent citizens
il was thought best to allow the show
people to put on their parade in order
that every child could see it. 1t was
advertised to be one-mie long. but
when it appeared il only reached four
blocks and the bands were not very
liberal with their music. The crowd
this afternoon was fairly large much
better than was expected since II vas
so far from the main part of town and
the performance was splendid.

new BASKET BALL
LEAGUE ORGANIZED
SANTA ROSA, RATION. SANTA FE
LAS VEGAS AND TUCUMCARI
WILL FORM CIRCUIT OF
NEW LEAGUE

IL present plans do not mis-carry.
the people of Tucumcari will have an
opportunity to witness the most re-
markable series of Basket Ball games
ever played in the northeast section
OF the state. As business manager
OF the athletic association, Supt. Shad-
wick has proposed a plan to organ
lZe n basket ball league between the
High Schools of Santa Rosa. Tucum.
carr, Raton, Las Vegas, and Santa Fe.
Present prospects indicate that the
league will be formed, and will in
clude both boys and girls games. Both
boys and girls teams of each school
IN the league will play two games in
Iucumcari the same as did Amarillo
last season. Space will not permit a
lengthy discussion Of the plans of the
proposition at present. II is suffi-
Gent to state that enough school su.
perintendents have signified their de-
sire TO form the association 10 As
sure its organization.
In order to carry out the plans OF
the league IL will be practically neces-
sary for the High School Athletic AS
sociation to have control of the Opera
House during the month of December
also the months of January and Feb
ruary. II Mr.. Shadwick is able 10
rent the building during these months
the success of the organization will
be assured. II the business men of
the city will use their influence to en-
courage the local High School Asso-
citation, we will surely have the privi-
lege of witnessing the most important
basket ball season ever seen here.
The Tucumcari teams will be even
faster and stronger than usual this
year. When one stops TO recall what
they did TO Santa Rosa and Amarillo
last year this is sufficient to warrant
the confidence of the public. Miss
Seder again has charge Jf the girls
team, and with much new material
and most of last years team back we
will have one Of the strongest girls
teams in the State. NJ. Wiseman, an
experienced basketball man has full
charge OF the boys. jackson. Fau,.
nacht, Wharton, Dixon. and Gentry of
last years team are back and the new
squad numbers twenty strong men.
With High School enrolment of one
hundred and fifteen students to Sc.
lect from we will see the Purple and
Gold" Of 7. II. S. represented by two
worthy teams.

PASTOR HEARN RESIGNS

Pastor O. w. Hearn, of the Chris.
tlan church in this city, rendered his
resignation to the congregation last
Sunday and same has been accepted
to take effect about the first of Jan
uary.
Rev. Hearn has made many friends
during his stay here and has made
some splendid addresses on different
occasions. His baccalaureate address
before the local high school graduates
two years ago, was one of the best
ever heard in this city. He is well
read In history and his comparisons
are plausible and readily accepted.
We have not yet learned what Bro.
Hearn intends to do but wherever he
chooses TO locate his friends wish the
best Of success will be his reward.

WILL OPEN SUNDAYS SOON

We understand The New Theatre is
going to open on Sunday After COM
with several different cities
and places it was found that Tucum-
earl was about the only place not run
ming on Sunday. There has been OBJ
lection because the churches would
lose some attendance. This may or
it may not he true. but the pcrson
who uses that for an excuse to stay
away from church would he of little
benefit to the cause of Chris If he
did 20 to church. We always heard
that man who went to church to he
entertained did not have very much
religion. If this Sunday opening is
wrong Mr., Hurley will no doubt dis
continue same. but il the majority fa-
vCr this move he will continue.

To the Honorable Thos. ID. Lieb,
Judge Presiding:

We, your Grand Jury, of the county
of Quay, State of New Mexico, duly
selected. empaneled, sworn and charg-
ed at the October, 1915, Term of saio
Court, do hereby and herewith sub
NIT to your Honor this. our first and
final report of our acts and doings as
such Grand Jury during the said term
of court.
We have been in session continuous
ly from the morning of the 18th of Oc-
tober, 1915, and during that time we
have diligently endeavored to follow
your Honor's instructions and to full
ly investigate all alleged violations Of
the laws of the State Of New Mexico
which have come to our own knowl-
edge. We have investigated Il large
number of causes and matters and
have endeavored to return true bills
Of indictment on all of those causes
where IL seemed to Us the facts war
ranted, and we have returned into
open court forty-three true bills and
no true bills which we have found
during our session.
We have examined into the conduct
OF the various county officers ana we
find from our hasty examination that
all such offices are being properly ad-
ministered by the various county of
iicers, and we find conditions through
out the county to be generally very
good insofar as violations Of the law
are concerned.
One recommendation howeverwhlch
your Grand Jury desires to make to
the Court and to the Board of County
Commissioners of Quay County, Is
that some adequate and proper means
he taken to provide the Grand Juries
Of Quay County with a suitable place
of meeting. The room in which the
Grand Jury must not meet is entire
ly too small and inadequate for the
jury to properly conduct its meetings
II is so constructed and situated that
anyone standing in the hall near to
or close by the door leading into said
Grand Jury Room, can easily over
q hear much that transpires in the
'Grand Jury Room. II is also posi-
bic for one standing in the Probate

the past two weeks and the News ed
itor has been one Of the petit Jurors.
Therefore we were not at liberty 10

cases that were TO come up for hear.
ing.
The case of state VS.. VIM. Riley was
the first {" come up for trial and re-.
suited in Riley being found guilty of
larceny of cattle and unless he secures
new trial he will be sentenced on
the last day Of court as the Judge sees
proper.
The murder case brought here on
change os venue from ColfaN coun-
~ was postponed on account of the
defendant not being able TO attend,
he being in the hospital for treatment
hut 1t is thought the case will come
up at special term in November il
such term is deemed necessary.
The case against "Slim" the bar
ber, who was charged with being one
OF the two who robbed the Elk Drug
store. short time ago. was found
guilty by the jury and will receive his
application to enter the state pen, no
doubt, when the judge reads the sen.
tences. The other party, Harry Rid
ley. who was supposed to have been
the other party to the crime, was in
dlcted by the grand jury, but he has
skipped the country and will no doubt
remain away indefinitely if he is the
guilty party.
The case Saturday when two Span-
ish-Americans were charged with cut
ting and taking wood from state lands
unlawfully, resulted in hung Jury.
which the judge dismissed after il was
found no agreement could be reached.
Monday the case of State VS.. Car
yer and Wilson, for the murder of
VIM. l.. Traylor which we gave a full
account of last summer when the trag-
edy occurred came up for trial and the
choosing of II jury was finished Tues
day after II special venire had been
called to fill in the places of those who
could not qualify from the regular
panel.
Testimony was begun Tuesday af-s
ternoon and twelve or thirteen wit
nesses heard. State witnesses contin-
ued to give in testimony all day We'd
nesday and many things were brought
out which had not been made public
before.
There is no question about who shot
Traylor, but the state wishes to prove
that Mr.. Wilson was implicated in
securing the artillery and aiding, abet-
ting and assisting Carver to do the
deed.
There are IA number of witnesses to
be heard today and it is thought the
case will go to the jury sometime to-
morrow. We cannot give all the tes-
timony and therefore will not give any
part AS it might give the wrong inn
preston to our readers.
There are u number of civil cases
yet to be settled and the court will
no doubt adjourn next Monday as the
Judge and district attorney must be
in Clayton on that date.
