The hearing of charges against for mer State Senator Isaac Earth ask ing for his disbarment from the prac- tice of law in New Mexico, will begin in Santa Fe this week, before the su- preme court. Assistant Attorney Gen eral Harry s. Bowman will represent the state, in the absence of Attorney General o. O. Askren, who is in Ros- we'll on business. Former Attorney General Harry L.

WAR ON NEPOTISM IS
 DECLARED BY MADD0CK

State Engineer Tom Maddock has declared war on nepotism. No longer will the time-worn endorsement "he's cousin of mine" have weight, and hereafter it is going to be very dif- ficult matter indeed for road camp foreman to favor his brother, son, father, uncle or brother-in-law or his uncle-in-law, either in the matter of employment or in the placing of or ders for supplies. The new policy of the department is set forth in the fol- lowing circular letter to all camps:
 Effective immediately all general foremen or their assistants of all the camps will be required to weigh, meas ure and carefully check all commodi- ties delivered for the account of the state engineer.
 "The employment of relatives will not be permitted in the same camp.
 "No purchases will be permitted for employees or their relatives, nor will sales be allowed to them. This does not prohibit the usual purchases from camp commissaries. These rules must be strictly enforced"

HARRIS SLIPS ONE OVER
 ON GOVERNOR CAMPBELL

The claims for the maintenance of the state adjutant generals depart ment, which Governor Campbell has refused to recognize since the first of the year, were approved today by Act ing Governor Nit Simms, during Gov enor Campbell's absence in Fl Paso to welcome the 158th regiment. This was the announcement made by Secre- tary of State Simms, who added that he expected State Auditor Boyce would issue the warrants sometime late Tuesday.
 The bill presented by Col. c. w. Harris, adjutant general, totaled $2,093.40, and included salaries for himself, his assistant, Capt. Oscar Temple, and stenographer, also uni form allowances for men connected with the department.
 Governor Campbell has steadfastly refused to recognize Col. Harris as ad- jutant general, and recently rendered the post to Col. Grinstead, formerly of the 158th Regiment, but now on de- tached service. Col. Harris maintains that he can be removed only by the vote of the general staff of the regi- ment.
 There has been some doubt as to the legal right of Governor Campbell to discharge Col. Harris from the of flee which the latter has held over from the days of the Hunt regime. h. stead of attempting to remove Col. Harris, the governor merely refused to sign the pay warrant, and the states military head has been without a check since January. Simms, being a Democrat, evidently decided to champion the cause of Col. .HorrisN and at the first opportunity issued the pay warrant.
 In commenting upon the coup which Messrs. Simms and Harris had pulled off, Percy R. Mines, Governor Camp bells secretary and personal repre- sentative, said today:
 "We had been expecting something like this to take place. While the timely arrival of the pay check will in all probability give Col. Harris a new lease on his official life, we can paraphrase the statement always given out by the suffragettes just after they had been beaten in Con- gress or some other place, and will say that we have just begun the fight"

CONDITION OF LIVE STOCK
 AND RANGES IN ARIZONA

Local showers, we'll distributed near the end of the week, were of great benefit to ranges. The largest amount fell in western New Mexico and on the Mexican border where improve ment in both stock and ranges is re- ported. Warmer weather in the north ern portion of the state benefited the young stock in that section. Stock on the desert have done well during the last two months owing to the unusu- ally good crop of winter annuals. This forage is being replaced by the new growth of browse which is uncom- monly plentiful.
 Abundant rainfall in February in the vicinity of Oracle has caused the usual luxuriant growth of filaree on the foothills in that section. It is a matter for regret that at present there are not sufficient stock in that vicinity to take advantage of all the available pasture.

OAK CREEK RIOTS"
 MUCH EXAGGERATED

The reports of riots on Upper Oak creek which reached Jerome last week were greatly exaggerated and when the officers of the law made an in- vestigation, the affairs proved to be but a quarrel between landlord and tenants such as occurs almost daily anywhere.
 The entire matter was threshed out on Saturday before Justice Jerry Fitz- patrick in a case wherein John Za- netta and Nick Buratte were defend ants, charged with disturbing the peace, the complaint being made by step-daughter of Juan Armijo own CT of the ranch leased by the two Italians and concerning which the re- ported "riots" occurred. Al.
 The testimony adduced by H.. NJ. Globes, attorney for the defendants, showed that Armijo had leased certain lands to the defendants mentioned on January 1, 1919, for term of four years and that the instrument, being somewhat loosely drawn, disputes had arisen between landlord and tenants, which resulted in closing by the latter of certain private road over which they claimed Jurisdiction. The closing of this road led to much inconvenience to other ranchers in the vicinity who were in the habit of using it and it was probably, from this fact that the exaggerated reports which reached Jerome arose. The justice dismissed the charges and put all parties-Ar- milo and his Italian tenants-under peace bonds in the sum of $250.-- Jerome News.

HOLBROOK RAIL LINE IS
 NOW READY FOR OPERATION

The Apache railway, the construc- tion of which began year and half ago, is now completed and will soon operate its trains on regular sched- ule. This line starts from Holbrook and terminates at point called Coo ly, in the White Mountain timber belt, which is said to be the largest tract of standing timber in the world.
 This splendid work was begun by T. E. Pollock, wealthy citizen of Flag. staff, who conceived the possibility of rendering these regions accessible and thus utilize the vast timber which has been in store and which is almost un- touched. The magnitude of this tim Der belt here can be perceived from the statement of representative of the forestry service who said that 100 carloads of lumber a day for 400 years can not yet exhaust these regions of their timber resources. This belt is about 70 miles south of Holbrook. The company will operate its line within the next 90 days and connects with the Santa Fe at Holbrook The company is now preparing to start operation

SEEPAGE WATER FLOODS
 BASEMENT OF CAPITOL

Seepage water has flooded the base ment of the capitol building to a depth of nearly foot, and unless something is done immediately to remedy the situation the furnaces and the walls of the building are likely to suffer serious damage. This was the state ment today of H. M. Alexander, su- perintendent of the building and grounds.
 Every time the grounds are watered the water rises still higher in the basement, said Alexander. The only remedy, he stated, would be a new concrete floor a foot or more in thickness.

COMMISSION ON STATE
 INSTITUTIONS EXPIRES

Governor Campbell is in receipt of communication from the attorney general advising him that the commits sion of state institutions ceases to ex- ist on July 1, and that on this date the new board of directors will be in existence and full operation. The opinion is in answer to a query as to whether the legislature had the power to set date on which any law passed shall go into effect. The attorney general rules that if such date is after the expiration of the 90-day period it may be designated in the bill, as in this particular instance.

AR unidentified Mexican was found dead Sunday in his wagon on the road near Bumblebee and reports were cir culated about Prescott that murder had been committed. Sheep herders made the discovery who, at once com municated with Mayer, and Sheriff Davis hastened to the place, and cor oner's jury from Mayer was assem- bled. An investigation of the corpse revealed the cause of death as prob ably accidental. A .45-calibre re- volver was found lying on the floor of the wagon and the fatal wound was in the head. The bullet entered the skull under the right eyebrow, and death must have been instantaneous.

sorts of distress, particularly backache
and misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges, severe headaches, acid
stomach, constipation, torpid liver,
sleepiessness, bladder and urinary irri-
tation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or If bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity; also to neutralize the acids in
the urine SO it no longer irritates,
thus ending bladder disorders.

ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of
many descriptions may be wonder
fully benefited by following the sim

Go to any active drug store and get a
bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one
Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of glass
of water and allow to dissolve. With
this liquid bathe the eyes two or four
times daily. You should notice your
eyes clear up perceptibly right from
the start and inflammation will quick
ly disappear. If your eyes are both
ering you, even a little, take steps to
save them now before it is too late.
Many hopelessly blind might have
been saved if they had cared for their
eyes in time.

washington, Dec. 5.-The attitude

'-watchful waiting"
Believing that a great popular de-
mand for ratification will come from
the country within few weeks, Presi-
dent Wilson is keeping hands Off the
present situation waiting for this urge
to materialize, according to numerous
indications.
The president refrained from direct
ly mentioning the treaty in his mes
sage to congress, it is believed, with
the idea that further argument was
useless.
Tho need for it, friends of the ad-
.ministration predict, will steadily be-
come more apparent. The senators are
looking for events to convince the
people that the treaty is desirable and
that no other means of bringing about
official peace will do. The president S
silence, they assert, does not mean that
ne has given up the fight or that he
is any less interested in ratification
than when he toured the country ap-
pealing for it. That he is wrapped
up in the treaty was the expression
used by some of his advisers in de-
scribing the situation.
Third Tcrmers Endorse.
Recommendation of Wilson for a
third term by the convention at Pierre,
S. D., were interpreted by the presi-
dents supporters as endorsement of
the treaty and as an answer to the ar
guments of those who claim the pact

to exhume it and make it an issue in
