HALF-HEARTED SEARCH
FOR MURDERER CAUSE
OF DARBY CITIZENS IRE
Residents Declare Delaware
County Authorities Are Max
ing No Effort to Solve
Mystery
PETITION FORTHCOMING

There was general Indignation in Darby
today. Residents declared that the Del
aware County authorities we're making
no effort to solve the mystery surround
ing the murder of Mary Davis, the
woman who lost her life in trying to
save the Vauables OF William Collins
grove, her employer.
Many declared that the Indifference in
regard to investigation of the case was
due to the attitude of District Attorney
John B, Hannum, Jr., who came to
Darby, 1t Is said, pronounced the case
suicide and returned to Media. AS Han
mum represents the powerful political in
terests which dominate the community,
the decision Of suicide was taken up, and
attempt was made by the county de-
tectives to end the investigation several
days ago
AS such conclusion could not be
reached b.. the widest deduction, resi-
dents say, the people demanded that the
police continue the investigation on their
own account, regardless Of the attitude
of the Delaware County detectives.
In the hope that the mystery can be
solved steps are being taken today to
circulate Il petition calling upon the
county authorities to conduct n rigid in
vestigation. This petition will be sent to
District Attorney Hannum. The women
of the community contend that the indif-
ference OF tlc authorities IN regard TO an
investigation will make Darby an at
tractive place for thieves and murderers
who will feel secure on account of pres
Cnt conditions.
1t is generally agreed that Chief of
Police Clark and his small force of police
men are doing all in their power to solve
the mystery 1t is known, however, that
there Is considerable friction between the
police of the small settlements of Della
ware County and the county authorities.
The detectives are eager for glory,
many say, and will not cooperate unless
they are sure of getting their full share.
1t was learned today that the murder
ed houscliceper owned two houses and
left the care of these properties to a
woman friend in Delaware County. This
woman was questioned but could throw
no light on the mystery
Coroner Drewes and business men liv-
ing in Darby proper are doing detective
work on their own account. At meet
ing of the Darby Council next week a de-
mand will he made that a detective be
employed for the community who will be
free from the domination of the political
ring which dictates the rules for the
section.

but why 20 on? Zeke de Baca, run
ing not as a mere part Of the Demo
cratic ticket but as Zeke de Baca, was
one Of the strongest candidates at the
first state election. English-speaking
counties gave him more votes than
English.speaking candidates. native
counties gave him more votes than
they did other SpanishtAmericans on
his own ticket. They did 1t because
he is a man of outstanding power Of
personality and ability, Of uncompro-
missing honesty. He has demonstrat-
ed ~conclusively how formidable Is his
strength with the people; he has
strengthened himself UNNECESSARILY
since 1911 by his unyielding and de-
termined stand for the rights Of the
people and for the constitution
against the bitterest assaults of the
lawless Republican majority.
He was placed in nomination by the
Pecos valley Democracy; he received
a tremendous ovation from the state
convention; he is a mar OF principle
and backbone, of fearless courage and
polished courtesy, and has demon
strated that he is one Of the greatest
vote getters on his own merits in the
Democratic party.

QUERIES FOR
ROAD MAKER
BURsUM
Did Bursum's Store Get
$4,000 Out Of Road
FUND.-
TAXPAYERS MIGHT
LIKE TO LEARN

"You cannot build a hun
bred dollars worth Of road for
ten cents" said Fl. o. Bursum
in a speech at Ration this week.
It is sometimes possible,
however, under Republican re-
gimes for the taxpayers to
get ten cents north of road
for a hundred dollars.
We wish to ask Mr.. Bursum
the following questions:
Did Mr.. Bursum build seven
miles of the Socorro-M ogollon
road for $27,145.2 "a in 1857
of this sum, wds $1O,408.22
or some forty per cent of the
total, speatqat the store of the
Rio Grande Supply company
at Socorro, of which II. 0.
BurSum Is president?
Is it a fact that to finish the
remaining 60 miles of CON
struction necessary on the road
would require a quarter of a
million d0HarsS
Is it a fact that at the pres
eat contract rate with the Bur
rum store the BarSaim store
Joald make some 100000 out
the M0goUoB highOay, If
tompletedS
Is it a fact that salaries of
officials connected with this
road, who are Barsum bench
men, haze gone on steadily
wbether work Was being done
on the road or motS
Is it a fact that the purchase
of supplies with this road fund
at the BurSam store haze gone
on steadily Whether road Work
aOas being done or not?
Is it a fact that this road
has been practically abandoned
and that if completed much of
it would be impossible for four
in the year?
Is it a fact that practically
every beneficiary of the moneys
paid out for this road is a Bur
henchman9
Is it a fact that the legisla-
tor who introduced the bill
which Mr.. Bursum's legisla-
passed to make all this
beautiful road building pos
sible was Abram Abeyt0, man
qger of Mr.. Barsum'S stores
Mr.. Bursum has voluntarily
up this subject of road
Mr.. Bursum has been max
