ASK RELATIVES
TO STAY AWAY
Il. S. ARMY OFFICIALS SAY THAT
WIVES SHOULD STAY HOME.
FROM ARMY CAM p s
PRESENCE OF RELATIVES HAM
PERS WORK OF SOLDIERS.
Unless Preparations for Quarters Arc
Made in Advance. Families of Sol
diers Has Better Remain Home.

Washington, Nov. l4-The Secre-
tary of War authorizes the following
statement:
The army and the American Red
Cross are being embarrassed because
a large number of the relatives of men
in training camps have undertaken t.
take up their abode near the canton
ments or ports of embarkation. II
many instances there are no facilities
near camp for taking care of such Wis
itors and would-De residents, and diff
ficulty is found in comfortably housing
these well intentioned relatives. Pro
tracted visits are especially undesir-
able.
Discouraged by Department.
So far as possible the War Depart
ment, at the suggestion of the civilial
relief branch of the Red Cross, desires
to discourage families from leaving
their homes and attempting to take up
new residence near the trainin~
camps. The department has not di:
position to deny the soldier in trainin.
occasional visits by his relatives, bu
unless relative shall have been abb
to arrange for accommodations in ad
vance it is unwise that he or she shout
60 to the environment sites only to fin
difficulty in obtaining nearby plao
at which to stay.
Authorities Seriously Embarrassed.
The civilian relief work of the Re
Cross, which embraces the care of al.
needy families of sailors and soldier
in their own homes, encounters III
necessary burdens through the influx
of relatives of soldiers and sailors II
cantonments, naval training stations
and ports Of embarkation. Military and
civil authorities are seriously embai'
rassed in a number of instances by
the problem of caring for thousands
of members of families of enlisted
men. Feeding and housing conditions
at some of the training sites make it
almost impossible to provide accommo-
dations, and when visits are made to
such camps the visiting relatives
should make advance arrangements.

MEANS END OF STRIKES
IN INTERSTATE SERVICE

Kansas City, Mo, March H.-The
Adamson law decision by the SUI
preme court means the end of all
strikes in industries or utilities en-
gagged in interstate service, in the
opinion of Frank Hagerman, special
government attorney in Missouri
Oklahoma and Gulf railroad case,
which led up to todays ruling. This
probably will be done, Hagerman
declared in a statement issued here
today, by the improvement of some
body, such as the Interstate Com
niece Commission, to settle any such
labor disputes that may arise.
"The public is to be congratulate
ed on this decision" statement reads.
1T evidently means the railroads
and their employees are engaged in
a public service. The great interest
of that pubic is to see that trains
are kept in motion. This requires
men as we'll as engines and cars.
These men must be efficient. To be
So requires health of body and con-
tentment of mind. Unreasonable
hours and lack of fair play impair
the health and breed discomfort.
at is not, however, a one-sided
proposition. The men, having de-
voted themselves with the railroads
to this public service, must do their
part.
Therefore, the movement of

PIONEER SHEEP RAISER
SELLS OUT HOLDINGS

One of the oldest pioneers of
Western New Mexico and Eastern
Arizona sold out his business hold
ings when Nathan Barth transfer
red his sheep and ranches to the
Iucker-Church company of ST. Johns
Ariz.
Mr.. Barth came to the country
before the building of the Santa Fe
railway and has always been an
Indian trader and sheepman. He is
we'll known throughout the eastern
part Of the state and eastern Art
zona. as is his son Sidney, who
was interested with him in the busi-
ness.
The Barth ranches adjoin the
ranches OF the Tucker Church COM
pany and lie north of St. Johns and
west of the Zuni Indian reserva-
ton. The home ranch is the Long
Fl ran"h where the manager Of the
company A. w. Saunders, makes his
headquarters.
The Tucker-Church company took
over the 5000 head of sheep in the
deal and will run them in addition
to their holdings in cattle.
1t is understood that 10000 was
the consideration upon which the
sheep and ranches changed hands.
Nathan Barth is the father OF State
Senator Isaac Barth of Albuquer-
Que the we'll known Democratic pol
itician.

LAST OF STEPHENS MURDERERs
CAUGHT AND CONVICTED

With the conviction of A. B. Smith,
alias w. F. Dashley, for murder
in the first degree, the gang of bad
men responsible for the death OF
the late Sheriff Dwight B. Steph-
ems has all been brought to justice
which serves as notice, in gen.
craI way, that il-breaking is a
risky business in Luna county.
Deming Jail delivery occurred Feb
ruary ~, 1916, upon which occasion
Joe Cranson, Francis Acosta, L.
Schmitt, J o. Starr and A. B. Smith
las w. F, Dashley, made their es-
cape.
Sheriff Stephens organized a posse
and went after them, overtaking the
bunch near Rincon, where, in a pit
ched battle, Sheriff Stephens was
shot and instantly killed and one of
his men, Euck Sewer, badly wound
ed.
W. g. Simpson was then appointed
s.,r.t az with his posse III raye
men, ably ass sted by Sheriff Felipe
Lucero and his aides, all but Dasn-
ley were in fair way to get what
was coming to them.
Granson W5s killed in the fight
Acosto was caught and sent to the
pen for 20 to 80 years, Schmidt was
convicted and given SO yeas, Starr
was likewise convicted and sentenced
to hang, his case now being re-
viewed by the supreme court, which
will only result in stay of exetu-
ton. and now Dashley, who Sax
mo@ths after the tragedy was cap
turcd by Chief Police, J. D. Hill
house, at Reno, Nevada, Sheriff
Simpson tracing him to that point
by handwriting detective work, has
been found guilty of murder iii he
first degree in Judge Medler's court
at Las Cruces, thanks to the splen-
did work of Sheriff Felipe Lucero
and his deputies, the efficient, faith
full service of District Attorney II.
b. Hamilton and the fairness of
the jury that rendered the ver'lict.
Judge Medler's charge was one of
the ablest and most comprehensive
ever heard in that court, and it is
certain that Mr.. Hamilton's closing
plea, when he pictured Dashley's
vile career, eliminating in the MUIR
der of one of the best police Of
Ulcers in New Mexico, was a court
scene long to be remembered.

Ernest Boardman is engaged in
drilling a well on the Baker ranch,
l8 miles northeast of Gallup, and
at depth of 100 feet struck a
quantity of oil and gas. The well
in which he is working had been
dug by hand to depth of 80 feet
and at that point a drill hole was
started. At depth of 100 feet he
penetrated a cap rock and volumes
Of gas arose from the hole. A
small quantity of oil flowed into the
well and could be scooped from the
water that was standing in the bot
tom of the we'll.
The Baker ranch is in close prox-
unity to what several oil experts
have pronounced one of the most
promising oil districts in this vici-
nifty. It is located near the Navajo

THE NEW MEXICO" WILL BE
A GREAT FIGHTING MACHINE

Washington, March 28.-At thi.
time when the public mind is fixet
on the question of the national de-
fense, battleship construction pos
sesses more than ordinary interest.
The forty-second battleship built
for the American navy since 1892 will
take the water next month, when
the superdreadnaught New Mexico
sips from the ways at the New
York navy yard. Compared to the
first modern battleship of the Ameri-
can navy, the Indiana, launched in
1893 the New Mexico will be near
ly twice as long, half again as wide
and of three times as great dis
placement. Against the Indiana's s
four 13-inch guns and eight 8-inch h
the New Mexico will carry twelve
l4-inch and twenty-five s-inch rifles
In addition to the great size OF
the new ships main battery, the
guns are Of forty-five caliber as
against the thirty-five caliber of the
Indiana's l3-inch guns, identical with
those aboard the famous cd Oregon,
which played their part in the bat

guns of the New Mexico in her
turrets, the Oregon could have halt
ed any one of the fleeing Spanish
ships almost without leaving he
station. The New Mexico's guns
will have range, even at the low
elevation of American navy mount
ings of Is miles or more against
eight or nine miles for the old thir-
teens.
The New MEXICO will be the sixth
battleship built by the United States
in its own navy yard at New York.
The others were the Connecticut,
the dreadnaught Florida, and the Su-
perdreadnaughts New York and Ari-
zona, in addition to the California,

UNITED STATES
re- LOAN ALLIES
FIVE BILLIONS
ACCORDING TO AN OFFICIAL
OF ONE OF AMERICA S
LARGEST BANKS LOAN
WILL NOT AFFECT COUN-
TRY'S FINANCES

New York, March 2S.-The Unit.
ed States will be able to loan the
Allies five billions of dollars with
out affecting the financial situa-
ton of this country according to an
official of one of Americas largest
banks. This official declared this
immense sum could be loaned to the
Allies and that in so doing busi-
ness at home would not be affected
in any way 10 a noticeable extent. He
believes that American gold can be
turned over to the Allies in suffi-
cient quantity to end the war.
This immense sum would be suf-
ficient to pay the entire cost of
the war of France and England for
one hundred days, or would buy 53S
dreadnaughts.
The estimated cost OF the Civil
war was three billions of dollars.

Topeka there will be little need of

"The effect Of the passage of the
bone dry law has been the most

he said. General police court busi-
ness has fallen off about 50 per
cent since the law became effective,
and the liquor cases have fallen off
at least rs per cent. Take liquor

NORMAL WILL CARE
FOR ALL STUDENTS

The fact that President Frank H
II. Roberts of the Normal Univer-
sity has called for all persons who
have rooms to rent to list them
with him for assignment to summer
school students. perhaps is the cause
of the rumor that the Normal will
be unable tc take care of the sum-
mer school students who expect to
attend this year. Dr. Roberts says
that this rwror is not true, for
every student who comes to Las We
gas will be given room, and that
Las Vegas will be more than glad
to entertain the students, though it
may crowd the cities facilities to
do SO.

Prosnecfs At Clenrio.

Oil talk continues with unabated
interest. Four parties were in the
oeighborhood of the cap rocks in the
petroleum and gas fields, acquiring
leases. One individual near here re-
ceived a letter advising to hold on
to his property till the writer can be
seen. The best indication of sim
cerity on the part of the promoters,
the rig erected and actual boring
begun, this promised by one COM
oany by the middle of May. At
present the whole thing is in the
speculative, though. oil rock may be
picked up as float, in abundance on
the outskirts of town. This is the
situation at present.-Glenrio Tribune
