LEILEHUA POST

The following appeared In the Army
and Navy Register of September 4th:
The commanding general Of Scho-
field Barracks, II. r., has raised the
question whether, under existing law,
boxing matches may be held at thas
post between enlisted men and under
military supsryisions provided no
charge is made for admission nor
money or other inducements offered
the participants. The penal code for
bids in the territories Of the United
States 'pugiIistie encounters. which Is
defined as being any voluntary fight
by blows by means or fists or other
wise. whether with or without gloves,
between two or more men, for money,
or for prizes of any character, or for
any other thing Of value, or for any
championship, or upon the result of
which any money or anything OF value
Is bet or Wagered, or to which any
admission fee is directly or indirectly
charged. It is held by the war de-
partment, therefore, that there Is no
legal objection to the holding Of box
ing matches at Schoffeld Barracks,
provided such matches are not held
for money. or for prizes Of any char
acter, or do not violate any of the
other phases of the definition of the
prohibited term 'pugilistic contests.

for the District of Hawaii, feeeiVed

Barracks. - ..s.
An Investigation was made by the
military authorities and it was found
that those in charge Of these, matches
had made every effort to conform with
the laws. The participants. however,
we're FOR the most part soldiers who
had previously taken part in profes-
sional pugilistic contests. and in the
smoker held on May 18th the specta-
tors were limited to those who had
joined an athletic club to which an

The subject has been the matter Of
considerable correspondence, both

UNITED STATES HAS BIG CROP
Half a Million More Acres Planted
this Year than Last. Wheat Yield
will Reach Billion BuShel Mark.

Washington, July 8.-American
farmers, confronted with feeding the
whole world while Europe is at
war, have planted record acreages
of all important crops. Moreover,
official estimates made public today
by the department of agriculture,
discloses prospects of production ex-
ceeding the average of the last six
years in almost every important one.
Based on the growing conditions on
July 1, some foodstutfs crops give
promise of new records. Their
money values promise records ac-
cordingly. Corn, greatest and most
valuable of all American farm pro-
ducts, shows an area of i09,272, 900,
acres-half million more than was
ever planted beforehand is expect
ed to produce 2,8iiO0O,O0O bushels.
Despite wet and cold weather for
seven weeks, which retarded growth
and cultivation in the important
corn states and forced the conditions
3.5 per cent below the l0-year aver
age, the new crop never the less il
estimated TO be I07,GO,0OO busheR
greater than the last ten years aver
age.
The outlook for the billion wheat
yield continues to grow Latest es
Inmates raise the prospective pro-
duction to 963,OOO,OOO bushels, an
increase of more than 100000 bu-
shells since the last estimate. Win
ter wheat, however, shows a 81 per
cent drop in condition, which re-
duces its prospective 100000 bu-
shells. That is ascribed to rains in
Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma.
Other states were reported practic-
ally the same or better than month
ago.
The Russian fly's depredations are
not reflected in the report of June.
Those reports now at hand in the
department of agriculture show
that corn, winter wheat, oats, and
white and sweet potatoes and rye
are growing on record acreages.

American Good Will Valuable

Berlin, July 5.-(Via London
Admiral Won Truppel, in on article
in the Der Tag, writes;
"A German-American war, or even
"A rupture of diplomatic relations,
the effect of which would virtually
be as great, would injure German
prospects more seriously than many
believe. Through America at first
would be able to contribute little
to the military strength of the en-
tente allies except by the accelera-
tions of the munitions supply, it
could in time cooperate with con-
siderable land and sea forces and
with tirst-class submarines and aero
planes in the complete isolation of
Germany. 1t also could exercise
such pressure upon the few remain
ing neutral countries that these
would probably be arrayed actively
or passively in the ranks of our
enemies.
Admiral Won Truppel discounts
the stories of earlier existing Amer
lean agreements with Great Britain
against Germany, explaining that
this is most improbable owing to
American diplomic traditions.
The Kreuz Zeitung, in its weekly
review says that limitations upon
submarines operations would cause
widespread and deep agitation among
the German people. II is probable,
however, the newspaper adds, that
in the Forthcoming note to America
a form will be found which will Off

tion so far as passengers are con-
cerned.

Better Freight Rates for New Mex
leo.

According to the associated press
dispatches from Washington, the in
terstate commerce commission has
handed down its decision in the i'm
portant New Mexico freight rate
case, holding that higher freight
rates to intermediate New Mexico
points than to FL Paso, sOuthbound
and Trinidad Colorado, and Amar-
lilo, Texas, northbound, are unrea-
sonable and must be discontinued.
The dispatch states that the decis-
ion affects both class and commod-
ity rates of the Santa Fe and other
railroads.
The reduction to New Mexico buy
ers will range from 2i to % per
cent on class rates, and as high as
40 per cent on commodity rates,
and probably will mean difference
of million dollars year. The
decision means, also that the job
bing advantages heretofore main
tanned by FL Paso, Trinidad and Am
arillO will be done away with.
The New Mexico rate case, which
is known as the State of New Mex
leo VS.. the A. T. & S. f. Railway ct
al, involves rates on all classes of
commodities in all directions in and
out of the state. 1t was filed with
the commerce commission in Janu-
airy, 1913, and hearings in connec-
ton with it were held in RoswellC
and Albuquerque in November OF
that year. 1t was argued before the
interstate commerce commission in
Washington, April II, 1914. II has
been the contention of the state cor
poration commission that higher
rates should not be charged to in
termediate points in New Mexico
than are charged to Ell paso, south
bound, and to Trinidad and Amar-
lilo, northbound. AS an example Of
the difference now existing, the frs

so it is but Sl.59, Although SAINT;
Fe is on a branch line, the commits
sion is asked that it be given tn
same adjustments as the intermedi
ate points in the state.

BIG STATE ROAD BOND DEAL
Draft for Half Million Dollars with
Interest 10 be Delivered TO State
Treasurer.

Santa Fe, N. NJ, July State
Treasurer o. N. Marion today con-
cluded the deal for the 100000, is
sue Of state highway bonds with the
firm of Kelly g. Kelly, of Kansas
City and Arthur Seligman of this
city. A draft for the S500,000 with
interest, will be delivered TO Mr..
Marion tomorrow. The draft at
tached TO the bonds will be sent
to New York, where upon actual
delivery, payment of the draft will
be made. 1t is expected the money
will be turned over TO the state
highway commission by July IS.
The difference between the par
value and the present market value
of the bonds will be covered by con-
tributions from the different coun-
ties in proportion to the amount to
be expended within their respective
Jurisdictions and by advance pay
ment of interest from banks where
the bonds are to be deposited.

i'm the district court here today,
filed a demurrer to the answer of
the Southwestern Surety company
in the suit instituted by the state
for the collection of the $4,000, Civ
en- by Morgan o. Llewellyn as the
treasurer of the New Mexico Col
lege of Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts.
The attorney general contends,
9mong other things, that even if
The state knew of the condition of
the First State Bank of Las Cruces,
where the money was on deposit, it
was by no means bound to diVulge
such information to the bonding
company and such knowledge could
in no wise affect the liability of the
company on the bond.
The Southwestern company, in its
answer filed some weeks ago, con-
tended that the state knew of the
insolvent condition of the bank at
the time the bond was given, and
that therefore the bond was void.

news on THE sTATE CApITAL
Republican Gang Expected to Sit on
Ely. HOlts Candidacy for u. s.,
Senate Not Taken Seriously.


.
Santa Fe, N, NJ, July THE pol
iticians continue to be unusually ac-
tive for the season, and this activ-
ity is largely due to the iigth against
Catron and the insisent candidacy
of Chairman Ely for the republican
nomination for governor. No old
line politician in the republican par
ty wants Ely for anything but just
now it looks very much like Ely
through a combination with Catron,
who is looking out for Catron, and
no one else. However, Catron will
combine with anyone else with the
same number of votes to deliver
before he will with Ely.
The Holt candidacy for the senate
is not taken seriously by anyone be-
cause of that legislative record of
his. If he didn't have that record,
and few other things to overcome,
there would be opposition enough
through the regular channels of
political ambitions boosted by others
The republican leaders, some of
them, would like to have Holt, but
they are not going TO make the mis-
take of nominating him with pop
ular vote to go up against. The
state is not bona Ana county.
Some of the republican newspa-
pers continue to boom Ely for gov
crnor, and a number of democratic
newspapers have recently gotten
into the game The Guervo Clipper
wants Uncle John Hicks for gov
'rnOr, and the proposal has met
with considerable favor the Tu-
cumcari Sun wants either f.. G.. de
Baca or Antonio LuCerO for gov
ernor and State Senator Aldredge
for lieutenant governor, and there
are many who consider it good be-
ginning for a winning ticket.
So far there is not a single an
nOunced candidate for the United
States Senate on the democratic
ticket, but the politicians are talk
ing of q number of prominent men
and the indications are that there
will be considerable crowding when
the time comes. as some seven or
eight men are in line.
Political issues are beginning to
crop up, and from the present con-
dition of the public mind it is pro-
bable that the state land office, the
county salary bill and the appropri-
ations made by the last legislature
will be subjects Of discussion.
The meeting of the state tax com
mission this month, when tax mat
ters will be finally shaped, is going
to bring that county salary measure
to the front for discussion, because
it has been demonstrated tina it will
eos the taxpayers more than the
old fee system did, and the wors
has not yet been told. Under tn,
provisions of the new tax law re-

property some eighteen or twenty
of the counties of the state will ad.
vance one notch in its classification
and each county so advancing will
cost the taxpayers at least five thou
sand dollars, perhaps more, eacl
year. 1t will be remembered tina
the present valuations on the SAM
property returned last year will b.
just three times as much, which will
put even some of the third elias
counties into the first class, an,
where a county jumps two classe
it will cost the taxpayers of tina
county more than ten thousand dol
lars more than at present. A YER
nice prospect for the tax payers
indeed
