sage which reached here Wednesday,

Santa Fe. Jan. ia circle of vet
eran prohibitionists and white ribbon.
ers here are concerned over the omis-
sion Of u few words in the bill No. 2
for amendment 23 to the state con-
titution. Whether the failure To in
clude in the bill the words that will
cover shipment of liquors into or out
of the state will make this a prohibi.
ton state where bootlegging may pros
per; or whether the transportation of
liquors into dry territory may be pun
ished under the national Webb Ken
yon law without the transportation
clause, are points that legal high
lights disagree on.
but to make assurance doubly sure
that the state shall have q prohibition
law that shall prohibit, workers for the
"drys" are urging that the words
prohibiting the importation and ex-
portation of intoxicants" he incorpor-
ated in the bill.
The clause covering the change of
venue for trials is causing question
among prohibitionists. what is the
purpose Of this clause? 7" is the query

RAY T.. BOYER RESIGNS AND
GOES INTO BUSINESS HERE

Secretary Boyer of the Commercial
Club was under the weather a few
days this week. The newly chosen
secretary, Robt. p. NJ. Case, was in
charge of the Office. and by the way
he took hold Of things it appears the
directors have chosen worthy sue
cessor to Mr.. Boyer.
On the first Of February, one year
from the beginning of the Business
Mems Association. under the secre-
taryship Of Mr.. Boyer. he will enter
the collecting agency Of +. w. Bowen
as a partner, the firm name being the
RowenBoyer Agency Mr.. Bowen has
worked his business up to an enormous
size and Of late has not given much
attention to the collection part. His
loan business will keep him busy so
it was necessary to take in partner.
He was not long in recognizing the
splendid ability of Mr.. Boyer and it
is reported he made such q tempting
offer that Mr.. Boyer could not turn
it down, thus the Commercial Club
has lost real live wire from the sec
retaryship hut he will remain a men,
ber and his services will not be lost
entirely.
Mr.. Case is an educated gentleman
and fully equipped mentally. morally
and otherwise to make a good secre-
tary and it is hoped he will prove as
good n find" rs his predecessor.

way round.
Mr.. Ridley was thrown into the

gashes on his forehead and face. Mr..
Pattison was thrown from the car and
received three fractured ribs and 9TH
er bruises. None of the occupants Of
the Goldenberg car sustained any in
juries.
The Goodman car was badly injured
the radiator being demolished. front
axle bent, radius rod doubled and the
cost Of repairing the car will be con-
siderable. The Goldenberg car was
smashed up and the damage to il is
said to amount to about $50.
From the looks of the cars one
would wonder how the accident hap
pened without causing death TO some
of those in the cars.
