Judge Dissolves Injunction

The Melrose disincorporation
case came up for a hearing be-
fore Judge G. A. Richardson
Wednesday and the temporary
injunction restraining the town
authorities from enforcing ordi.
nabces was dissolved. In this
action it was sought to declare
the incorporation illegal and an
effort was made by citizens to
disincorporate. Others were
contending equally strong to
maintain the present city gov
ernment. A large array of wit
nesses for both sides were here
Wednesday and after hearing all
the evidence, the court decided
that the incorporation was legal
and diss solved the temporary in
junction which had been granted
restraining the city authorities
from enforcing certain ordi-
nances.

Bond Issue Invalid

It has been decided that be-
cause of legal technicalities that
the $35, 600 bonds for city i'm.
provements which were voted at
the last city election cannot be
scld. In the meantime while
deals were being made to sell
the bonds, the city expended
several thousand dollars in drill
ing a well and making other i'm.
provements, the city fathers
thinking there would be no OBJ
stacle in the way of making a
sale. The bond brokers, how
ever, discovered the irregulari-
ties and blocked the sale. 1t is
said that the statutes provide
that a bondi.sue canEoc be voted
by special election and in this
event a vote cannot again be
taken until the next general
election.

Luikart Having Sale

are having a big sale which
started Thursday of this week.
1t is the custom of this big dry
goods and clothing house to put
on a mid. summer sale each year,
just before their buyers go to
market to purchase their stock
of fall and winter clothing. Of
course a big reduction in prices
is necessary to move the goods
and Luikart always allows the
prices to drop very materially.
For further particulars, we in

Crisis In Mexican Situation Has Apparently Passed.
Trip to Hollene

In company with Mr.. and Mrs.
Dell Houk and w. M. Ogg, the
News man made a trip to Mr..
Ogg's farm north of Hollene
Sunday. We also visited the
breaks and took a short jaunt
over on the Texas side of the
line. The section north Of Hol.
lene has been favored with more
rain than other parts of the
county and the crop prospects
are particularly good at this
writing. The wheat especially
which is now being cut and
thrashed is large yield and
better quality than we had sup
posed. rhe people of that sec
tion appear prosperous and are
developing their places in good
shape. One thing that interest.
ed US more particularly was the
class of stock which have been
bred up and much improved in
recent years. The school houses
are we'll furnished and the
pr remesis kept clean and invit.
ing. Hollene is in the center of
one of the best stock farming
sections of the county and the
land there has trebled in value
in the past two years. This fine
section of the country is in the
Clovis trade territory and but
few of the people trade else
where. Mr.. Ogg has a fine tract
of go acres of which a consider
able portion is planted in wheat.
The most of the wheat raised in
the Hollene country this year
will make from fifteen to twenty
five bushels to the acre. During
last year and the year previous
it made from twenty to forty
bushels. We do not believe that
there is section of country in
the state of New Mexico where
the people are as prosperous and
contented as in the Hollene dis.

Herby Will l. cave

H. C.. Herby will leave Friday
of this week for Albuquerque,
where he will become connected
with the staff of the Morning
Journal. While the position may
become a permanent one he does
not expect at this time that it
will last longer than until after
the election in November when,
according to his present plans,
he will return to Clovis.
Mr.. Herby has been the local
correspondent of the Journal for
the past ten months and has un-
doubtedly been the best news
gatherer the Journal has ever
had here. Frequent comments
have been made by citizens in
various parts of the state about
the live news sent to the Journal
from Clovis. Knowing what a
news item is and being able to
write it up in a style that is
peculiarly his own attracted the
attention of the Journal manage.

selected for a position on the
staff of that paper.

Cement Motor Road

Conductor James f. O'Rouke,
of Tucumcari, is promoting a
motor road from that place to
Clovis. and from what we can
learn from the press reports
about his plans, this new enter
prise promises to be next to the
best proposition for the rich
farming districts between the
two cities, and should have the
fullest support of the people of
the country between the two
points.
1t is planned to build a line Of
cement tracks for autos and auto
trucks, the corporation putting
on number of large trucks for
the handling of any and all kinds
of freight. passengers and mail,
thereby making this proposition
next to a railroad.
If the promoters build this
road, we are for it, and we hope
that every good citizen will lend
his influence and heartiest sup.
port to have this road built and
in operation at the earliest
possible moment - House News.

THOUSANDS OF TROOPS
EN- ROUTE TO BORDER
Khaki Clad Boys of the Eastern States Tread the
Streets of Clovis and Fight Sham Battles in
Practice With Imaginary Mexicans.

The streets of Clovis during
the past week have resounded to
the martial tread of soldier boys
feet. Nearly every day several
train loads of national guards
men from the east have passed
through here enroute to the
Mexican border, and the trains
going through in daylight have
stopped here long enough for
the troops to detrain and exer-
else. They were marched
through the streets and in a few
instances, at least. up as far as
the vacant lots just south of the
court house, where they were
put through maneuvers calculat-
ed to rest them flom the long
rides on the trains that they had
been subjected 10.

al officers, arrived here and re-
mained for about two hours.
The troops were marched to the
Harvey House lawn where
Fourth of July exercises were
held under the direction of Col.
Charles Z. Alien. The declara.
ton of independence was read
and America and the Star
SpangIed Banner were sung.
After these exercises were over
the soldiers were marched to
South Main Street, where a
number of foot races were pulled
off.
Clovis people have turned out
in large numbers to see the
soldier boys pass through, and
many members of the fair sex,
IN particular, have been the re-
clplents of souvenirs in the
shape of samples of hard tack
with the donors name and ad-
dress written thereon. Also. in
some instances, if appearances
count for any thing, the soldier
boys have carried away from
Clovis souvenirs in the shape of
the hearts of some of our fair
daughters. We wonder what
romances in the way of love af-
fairs history will record in con-
nection with this troop move

TROUBLE WITH MEXICO

Mexican troops, appeared to-
night to have been dissipated by
an amicable note from General
Carranza, presented during the
day by his ambassador designate
here, Eliseo Arredondo. The
note proposes that the differ
ences between the governments
be settled by mediation or by
direct negotiations. 1t is re-
markable for its brevity, its re.
strained and friendly tone. and
for the absolute lack of any of
the strong language which
characterized the last two com.
municatlons from the de facto
