SEVEN BOATS WILL PLY
 ALASKAN WATERS IN SUMMER

Private advices have been received giving information of an increase ir the schedule and number of boats op- erated to Alaska by the Pacific Steam ship company during the next sum- mer season. The proposed schedule has not been officially approved as yet, but the advices received are to the effect that it will probably be adopted.
 The schedule as planned calls for the City of Seattle, Spokane, Admiral Watson to operate on the Southeast ern Alaska route. with the Admiral Farragut, Admiral Evans, Admiral Schley and Admiral Dewey on the westward run. This will make seven boats on the run and will allow for a sailing from Seattle every day and a half.-Cordova Times.

Las Vegas Figures in
Story by Van Loan
0Las Vegas Optic

Ever since HI. II. Van Loan, the
publicity manager of the Universal
Film company, visited Phil LeNoir,
then secretary Of the commercial
club, and vas taken up to the CALI
mas canyon for a peep at our incom-
parable scenery, this New York
scribe has persistently and enthusi-
a~stically boosted Las Vegas both
verbally andAin his many articles.
Van Loans latest Las Vegas "hist"
is a story entitled Show Andy Broke
Into Pitchers" and appears in the
Sunday supplement, issue of January
20, of the well known Plain Dealer
of Cleveland, Ohio. The "Andy"
mentioned will be remembered as the
little chap from Roswell, son Of J.
M. Hervey, the well known lawyer
of that city, who visited Las Vegas
two summers ago and was taken in
by Tom Mix and his Selig company
as one of their outfit"
When Van Loan visited LeNoir at
Albuquerque this past summer the
latter told Van of Andy. The article
was the result. While ANDY Is the
star actor in the story, Las Vegas
scenery and the eX-secretary of the
commercial club come in for consid-
cradle mention.

ENGINEER KILLED

Pennington, N. M, Feb. 6.-The
boiler at the Kirkland flour mill ex-
ploded, killing Gene Larsen, who was
in charge of the boiler at the time
The explosion utterly demolished the
boiler room which was separate from
the brick building that contains the
mill machinery. A, small hole was
blown in the brick wall of the mill
proper, but it was no, seriously dam
aged.
The man killed was blown fully
100 feet before he struck the ground
and lived only a few hours after he
was picked up. Medical assistance
was secured promptly, but nothing
could be done. 1t was nearly miracu-
lous that no others were killed, says
the Times+Hustler. A part of the
boiler was blown on top Of a wagon
the mill that the owner, MT.
Gale, had left just a moment before.
This caused the horses to run away,
but did no more damage than to
break up the wagon and harness. The
boiler had only been in use a short
time and had been taken from the old
cannery building here.

Demand for Reorganization
OF Highway Commission
By DR.. S. M. johnson, Ruidoso, N. M.

| governor seems to be actuated by a
sincere desire to promote the welfare
of the state as a whole, and 1t is
reasonable to believe he would APP
prove a bill to remove as far as pos.
sible from political influence and to
place in expert hands the road bust
ress OF the state.
The Reorganization Plan
Concretely, the desired arrange
ment is as follows: Divide the state
irto four approximately equal parts
along county lines. let the governor
appoint one commissioner from each
district. Let him appoint a fifth from
anywhere in the state, these five to
constitute the state highway commits
sion. The commissioner at large to
be chairman of the body, and its re-
sponsible executive head. He should
devote his entire time to the bust
ness, should make his residence in
Santa Fe. should familiarize himself
with all the roads of the state, county
roads included, should be a man Of
breadth of view and education, a pub
lie speaker who could set forth New
Mexico's attractions to prospective
visitors, settlers and investors at the
great road conventions and similar
gatherings, and be of vast assistance
in a well-directed publicity campaign.
The other four should be- paid a per
diem when attending to the road bust,
ness of the state. The five should
employ an expert state road engineer
and assistants. The fullest publicity
should be given their operations in
order that the taxpayers might know
just what use was being made OF
their money.
The time has come to take the road
work out of politics. At this writing
the proposed Chaves county road
bond issue of 500, 900 seems likely to
be defeated. Why? Not because the
tax payers do not want better roads,
or are unwilling to pay for them, but
because there is no well-defined CO.
ordination of county, state and fed
eral activity and because of the per-
nicious disturbance which politics in
jects into the situation. The people
of the state want better roads. They
are willing to pay the price, provided
they can be assured that they will get
a dollars worth of road for each dol
lar expended. There is only one way
that this assurance can be given. The
remedy must be supplied through re-
organization.

ter craftsmanship and rancor against
this defendant to such an extent as to
render said indictment dangerouF,
and indeed fatal to the due admins
tration of public justice and as such,
the said document is opposed to the
public welfare in this district and
should be dismissed accordingly.
As to the Second Publication
Judge Mechem announced that he
would sustain the demurrers entered
for the same defendants in the matter
OF an alleged second libelous publ
cation in the New Mexican of October
II. but granted the district attorney,
Harry P. Owen, an additional day to
submit new matter. Today the dis.
trict attorney asked an additional
week to look up authorities, which
was granted by the court.
The demurrer as to the second case
is of particular interest, as it sets up
that:
ut appears upon the face of said in
dictment that the alleged libelous ar.
ticle therein set forth is privileged,
because it is a statement regarding n
judicial proceeding wherein there is
no charge of corruption against the
justice of the peace presiding over
the court wherein said proceedings
were pending" The alleged second
libelous publication was a news item
regarding the arrest of Colonel Cut
ting on a libel charge preferred by
Henry Dreyfus, on a warrant issued
out of the court of justice of the
peace, Amos Green, of Socorro, ths
provision for bail being deleted or
missing from the warrant.
In the last named demurrers now
before the court the remaining para
graphs are practically identical with
the demurrers as to the first publica-
tion, including the charge of injection
into the indictments by their draft
err of political bias and prejudice for
its effect upon the jury. 1t will be
that the indictments de-
voted most Of the charge to a recital
of what were characterized as "as-
saults upon Fl. o. Bursum" instead of
alleged libelous charges against
Henry Dreyfus, the name Of Bursum
occurring several dozen times in the
of the true bills.

III inc drSuIleHL upon UemurrerS De-
fore Judge Mechem at Socorro Satur-
day, Assistant District Attorney Eaton
of Socorro vehemently resented this
charge, stating that he was the draftei
OF the indictments, and entered into a
heated colloquy with the attorney fol
the defense. The court finally inter.
coded in the discussion to prevent its
becoming too acute.
Judge Mechem overruled demurrers
entered in the case OF The three in
dictments against the directors, Presi.
dent B. M. Cutting and Austin G. Bra,
dy, the reporter who the Indictment
alleges controls the policies of the
New Mexican, involving an alleged Ii
belous publication regarding Henry
Dreyfus on October Z, 1916. With the
addition that the demurrer in the
case Of MI. Brady pointed out the al
legged inconsistency of the case against
him, the form of demurrer entered
was as follows:
The demurrefs in the case of the
first alleged publication set forth:
d. That said indictment does not
state facts sufficient to constitute an
offense against the laws of the state
of New Mexico.
2. That the language thereof is so
qualified, inconsistent, insufficient
and indefinite as not to charge any
offense under the laws or the state OF
New Mexico against these defend
ants.
8. That the language thereof fails
to charge any offense cognizable by
this court under the criminal libel
statute of this state in that it fails
to charge that this defendant, was
the editor, publisher. proprietor, or
owner of said newspaper, the Santa
Fe New Mexican.
4. That the facts and things there
in set forth are composed of so many
immaterial allegations tending to Gre
ate prejudice and bias in the minds OF
any jury called upon to hear the
cause, that it is apparent upon the
face of the indictment that the pur-
pose of the drafter Of said document
was to inject into the case political
bias and prejudice and to raise in the
minds of any jury, if composed of
supporters of Mr.. Fl. o. Bursum, Bit
