THOMAS X. TAYLOR GOES TO

Thomas II. Taylor has accepted a po-
Sition with the United Cigar Stores
CO., and will leave for the main office
in New York City the latter part Of
this month. 1t is not likely that h.
will stay in the metropolis The main
reason for his leaving is to near his
daughter
Mr.. Taylor will be missed in the
business and social circles Of the city,
for he has made many friends who will
regret very kecnly his departure. He
will be especially missed at the Bank
Of Deming where he has resigned as
vicc-president. lie has also disposed
Of his stock holdings in that institu-
tion.
Tom says that il is his ultimate in
tcntiou to come back To Deming, which
he hopes to do in the course Of the next
few years He was formerly with the
company which now bids for his SER
vices and the offer it has made il too
flattering TO he turned down. Deming
wishes Tom the best of luck in his new

UNCLE SAM LOST NERVE

Secretary of War Newton ID. Baker
says the United States lost its nerve
and that is what is the matter with the
world oday.
The people of Europe have lost their
nerve is the opinion Of Bishop William
Burt Of the Methodist church, who
landed in New York yesterday, from 4
tour In Europe.
These two opinions were expressed
in yesterdays \. =. dispatches. Per-
haps both these gentlemen are rigth,
but they seem TO be taking opposite
viewpoints, otherwise they would both
simply say that the whole word has
lost its nerve. But for loss of nerve
in either Europe or America, the cure
seems to he American gold Perhaps
this Is the real cause of Uncle sam 5
loss OF nerve Moral leadership pays
no dividends, enjoys virtues reward
and costs a lot of money.

J. 4. MAHONEY Is LATEST

The public will he pleased to learn
that J. \. Mahoney has cast his hat
into the ring for the office Of county

Luna county is entitled to a good busi-

ure OF money raised by taxation.

AMERICAN TACTICS

The survival Of characteristic Ameri-
can tactical doctrine, Is outstanding
nature Of the new military manuals
now being prepared by the genera
staff. Even the foreign terms, English
and French. for which there already
exists equivalents in the old text books,
are to he eliminated. This will mean
the deleting of such romantic terms as
"llaison" and "over the top" substi-
tuting "information" and attack" OF
course the older French military terms
will be retained as they have really be-
come Il part Of the language through
long usage.
But the essential matter, as suggest
cd In the opening sentence. Is the justi-
ficatlon of the strictly American devel-
opment of open fighting, inculcntlng

WHAT is TOURIST THAFFIC
WORTH TO THE CITY?

The number OF tourists that pass
through Deming by motor
TO and from the Pacific coast over the
Borlerland route has been the subject
Of curiosity on the part of our citizens
In a general way il Is conceded that
these motorists transact considerable
business in the city. But beyond the
visible fact that the garage business
here flourishes. little is known as TO
what revenue the city derives from this
trade I'm other lines orw hat measures
might he taken to exploit il further
The Graphic has frequently pointed
out that n free camping ground should
be maintained adjacent 10 the city
where motorists could be assured Of
water and convenient and clean camp
sites. 1t was suggested that corner
Of the court house grounds be devoted
TO this use. However nothing has been
done by the county commissioners, the
chamber Of commerce or other civic
bodies.
With the present lack Of facilities
many tourists go on through or make
only brief stops here. II camping
ground should be provided and adver-
tised in guide books and by road signs,
many could be induced to make stays
of longer duration.
At the present time there Is no
method Of making Il survey Of this traf-
fic. With free camping ground, a
place Of registering should be provided
the chamber Of commerce for in
stance--and check made that would
come near 10 revealing the extent and
value Of the traffic ana offer the ba-
sis OF plans 10 more fully exploit it.
II would seem that Deming, situated
80 adyantageously, as respects remote
ness from other important cities, could
derive considerable revenue from this
trade by simply catering to it.

$4,000 BOND FIXED
IN THE HICKS CASE
Before u. s. Commissioner B. Y. NC
Reyes Last Thursday Held ON
Charge Of Forming Conspiracy.
FIRST REAL CHECK PUT ON HIM
Testimony Introduced in Attempt TO
Show Underground Route From
Juarez, Mexico, TO Deming.

L0ST-Perfectly good rabbits foot |
finder please ,etuyn to George Hicks,
care sheriff OF s.una county.
A fellow can't be lucky all the time,
especially when he loses his rabbits
foot and all his friends desert him.
That's what George Hicks (colored)
thought when u. y. Commissioner B.
Y. McKeyes Thursday afternoon held
him TO the federal grand jury In the
sum of 5000 bond as one Of the trio
accused OF conspiring la violation OF
the narcotic act The other two are
Hicks wife and Abner Smith (whites) ;,
they being held under bond Of $1,000
each. SO far bond has not been secur
ed, which Is something new, as Hicks
has been considered the luckiest alleged
vlolator OF the law In this section of
New Mexico. Being arrested used to
he mere incident In Hicks young life
and merely meant only the trouble to
walk up to the court house and back.
The evidence before the U. $. com
missioner was quite Illuminating and
shows n condition of disregard OF law
and common decency of which Dem
ing ought to be heartily ashamed. Hicks
got out of the clutches Of the justice
court with the greatest ease last Mon
day. He didn't even draw jail sen
tence that took" But beforet he fed
eral court, his luck began to ebb. First
Abner Smith turned states evidence
and told the whole story duplicating
In his testimony Hicks and his wife I;
and then the unfortunate matter of
bond came up Looks as though Com
missioner McKeyes must have thrown
the book at him. TO use slang ex-
preston. Anyway the lovely trio are
still in thee ounty jail.
o. l.. Tinkelpaugh, special agent of
the department Of justice here, seems
TO think the Graphic has had something
TO do with Hicks troubles. Well,
Hicks has had something TO do with
the Graphic's troubles, so 1t would seem
fair enough, inasmuch as the Graphic
troubles plenty without messing
around with anything as odoriferous
as Hicks has stirred up.
The testimony last Thursday was In
troduced In an attempt to show that
Hicks deals In such precious and inof-
IellSlNe HcTCllhHulSt uH Sothiis ihVi

Mexican Hot Nice stuff to be feeding
the men who are trying TO recover from
the most dreaded infirmity to which
mankind is heir Yet the empty bottles
in the Hicks dive north of the tracks
indicated that either the men ut tho
public health service hospital had been
getting the stuff or somebody had. II
Is alleged that Hicks maintained an
underground route from Cnidad Juarez
to keep up the supply. This, In addi'

THIRTY FIVE FARMERS
EXPECT TO GROW COTTON

Prospects point to a thorough test in
cotton growing In Luna county this
year SO far 80 farmers have ordered
seed amounting To approximately 12.-
600 pounds. If the seed is planted at
the rate OF 30 pounds to the acre, Il
means that approximately 400 acres
will he planted. We believe, however,
that there win be some slumping on
this acreage before planting is done.
The Farmers Association so far has
been able TO get prices only ON the Me
bane and Durango varieties. 5000
pounds of Mebane and 1000 pounds
of Durango seed have been ordered
from Eddy county. The Mehane will
cost &c per pound and the Durango DC
per pound I. o. b. points In Eddy coun-
ty. The sacking will be extra.
