soma Mexican . Prisoner

Total blindness and the ehcroach-
ing infiImities Of age failed to stay
the hand or shake the nerve Of J..
G. Egan Of Lordsburg when the
pinch" came, one night last week.
AS a result Of his prompt response
to call for help out Of the dark
q Mexican is in jail and an insult to-
the American flag Is avenged.
Mr.. Egon, who has a news stand
at Lordsburg, had just come in from
the distribution Of the evening
papers from Fl Paso when he heard
the call for help, which came from
the open ground back of his home.
lie rushed out and, guided by sound
only, located two men in a struggle,
in which one was evidently getting
much the worst of il. EgOn seized
the man on top, whose excited chat
ter betrayed him as Mexican, and
pulled him off the other man. AS
the Mexican was about to escape, he
called to his wife to "bring him a.
gun" Mrs. Rgon complied, and
pointing it in the general direction
Of his prisoners head, he command
ed him to throw up his hands. IF
you bat an eye, III shoot it OUT"
he roared.
Ignorant Of his captor's blindness,
the Mexican gave up and permitted
Egon to march him triumphantly
around the street and turn him over
to Deputy Sheriff Sam 0lney, who
promptly gave the man lodging in
Jail.
The man attacked by the Mexican
turned out to be Joseph vanWinter,
aged about So, who had presumed to
reprove the other for cursing the
'gringoes' and the flag. When he
told the Mexican to return to Mex
leo if he didn't like his Uncle Sammy
he was attacked and stood a good
chance Of losing his life but for the
prompt, courageous action Of the
blind man. As it was, he was badly
beaten up, but is in no danger Of his
life.
District Attorney j. s. Vaughl
went to Lordsburg last week to pro-
secnte the Mexican, who pleaded
guilty, and was bound over TO the
federal court. His bond was fixed
at $1,000, which he failed to raise,
going to jail He gave his name as
Ramon Fedaba.
Asked how he managed to summon
nerve to attack, unarmed, a man
who might have been "loaded for
bear" and who possessed beside the
tremendous advantage Of perfectly
god eyesight, the blind man, now a
hero in his home town, said prompt
" that he 'had son in the army"
Without getting personal about it,
LOrdsburg people are now consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of putting out
the peppers of all the officers Of
the law at that town, and in the
future will use only men who have
sons at war They have seen the
striking effect Of such a combination
and want some more Of it.

The now thoroughly organized en-

TO ASSUME national works chair

of Mr.. Frankfuters' board and his
task is to see that the new draft
does not cripple the production OF
fuel and raw materials.
The American Mining Congress,
an organization representing seventy
per cent of production, has taken up
the work of assisting Mr.. Neave and
is appealing to producers of oil, gas,
coal and metals to at once check
upon all employes-not by number
or classes but individually, in order
that personal arguments may be
presented to district draft boards in
favor Of deferred classification for
men absolutely necessary to produc-
ton.
Every corporation has in its en-
ploy a certain number of men upon
whom it must depend for efficiency
in organization" said James F. Call

Mining Congress. "These men,
either producing laborers or in man

The American Mining Congress
has telegraphed all state and divi-

members to handle this ''man-pow-

General Crowder's instructions that
no essential trained men be sent to

BUY War SAVINGS STAMPS

East Las Vegas, N. NJ, Sept. g.

18th.
This is the slogan with Is being
spread broadcast throughout New
Mexico this week and which il is ex-
pected viii bring large returns in
raising this states quota Of Baby
Bond purchases. The fact that the
day before is draft registration day,
for the whole man-power Of the
state, win not lessen the enthusiasm
for Pershing day and it is expected
that both purchases and pledges
viii be heavy.
War Savings Stamp purchases are
growing in New Mexico. As against
1909 war savings societies in June,
there are now nearly 900 and the
states percentage Of war savings
societies win be reached in another
thirty days. The number Of author
lied agencies has increased several
thousand within the past thirty days.
The result Of the additional acti-
vity is shown in increased stamp
purchases. The July totals, just
completed at state headquarters
here, show that during that month
the Federal Reserve banks sent into
New Mexico 1O2,S5s,66, and that
post office sales were $40l, 7Ol.S1
a total for the month Of $5O4, O59. 81.
This is the biggest month since New
Mexico started after its 100000
quota. II has encouraged the work
ers everywhere and there is now
reason to expect that the August
returns will be even larger.
The new interest in war savings
stamps is indicated in the attention
being given to the sales by business
houses. The Hotel Aragon, at Mag
dalena, some time ago put the W,
S. s. emblem in a handsome red inn
print on all its stationery. This is
now being followed by hotels and
business offices in many other New
Mexico towns.

EVERY GROWER WHO RAISES 10
BALES OF COTTON SHOULD
PUT TWO IN WAREHOUSE.
SELL The CROP GRADUALLY
II There is a Surplus II Mwst es
Absorbed BY Reduced Prodve-
tion Next Year.

In a recent speech on the cotton
situation, Clarence Ousley, Assistant
Secretary Of Agriculture, said that ~
he sees the situation mo calamity
iInpends IL we do not lose our heads" :"
and that he is more concerned about
the gathering of the crop than about
disposing of it.
He offered a solution, even il there
10 q surplus of from three to four
million bales, and says:
IF every farmer who raises 10
bales of cotton will put two in the
warehouse and sell the remainder BY
installments from month to month
throughout the winter and spring in
stead Of forcing 1t all on the market
At one time, the difficulty in even it,
worst aspects will disappear"
He thinks tnat if there is a surplus
of cotton this year it must be alb
sorbed by reduced production ne1t
year. Furthermore, he points Ou.
that the Government did not ask for
so large a crop, and that in all fair
ness this fact must be recognized, the
crops having been produced because
the Southern growers refused to
heed the warning of agricultural Lead
ers and eeonomists.-L. 8. U. Press
