Mules At Play On
Second st. LalUns
Work Dogcatcher

Two big mules, of the Missouri
type, were feeding on the lawn of
Ed Farr, sos North Second street
yesterday afternoon.
The unwonted pasturage appar
emily made them frisky, for they
began to kick up their heels and
cavort innocently.
Mrs. Frank Clark. who lives
across the street, saw the mules
and their actions alarmed her,
The Farr family was not at home
and she was afraid they would
connect with something in their
promiscuous frolic.
So she called her husband at the
cattle sanitary board and he refer
red the matter to the city dog
catcher.
The wandering mules were cap
tured and led from the lawn before
any damage was done.

Man Asks His Friends to
Work For the Nomination
of Judge Hanna.

Col. ID. X b. Sellers is not a can
didate for governor. In a letter
sent out to friends over the eourty,
who have been working foc his
nomination. he asked to be left out
of consideration and urged support
of r. II. Hanna.
Following is copy of the letter,
mailed yesterday:
ITO Democrats OF the State:
upon my return to the state at
ter an absence of two months, |
find many of my Bernalillo county
friends have been very active to-
wards securing for me the endorse
ment of this county for the guber-
material nomination,
Naturally | feel very highly
honored, but after carefully observ-
ing the state political situation, and
considering | am more interested in
the success of my party than | am
of myself, / believe it best for the
democrats of this county to unanl-
mously recommend Honorable r.
II. Hanna for the office of COVER
nor, and urge that my friends
throughout the state do likewise,
and thus with u united and har-
monious democracy locally and
throughout the state will enable US
to hammer the enemy to pieces and
carry the state above all for Cox
and Roosevelt.
while ! have certain well de-
fined ideas towards the develop
ment Of the states resources and
highways, equalization of our taxes,
unbiased handling of our state
lands, elimination OF politics from
our public schools. proper appor-
tionment of public lands for SOL
dier settlement and other progress
sive methods of state development,
| feel that Judge Hanna will ac-
complish equally much or mere
than | could, and therefore. sin
cerely urge all of my friends
the state is to get be-
hind him and nominate and elect
him TO that important office.
The political lines of the state
are close and this year calls forth
the highest type or citizenship and
for the good of the whole becomes
necessary that some of us forego
any personal ambition we may
have and enter as a private in the
ranks and never cease in our eff
forts until we have elected our
ticket from top to bottom.
Very sincerely,

OUR DAILY QUESTION
What should be done to reduce
the number of traffic accidents?

Pablo Lujan, police officer;
Everybody ought to be more
careful, Both pedestrians and
drivers of cars are too reckless
and take too many chances. Boys
on bicycles are lot Of trouble.
With everybody so careless. it
is wonder there have not been
some serious accidents"
Harold Sellers. real estate
estate dealer: more speed In
getting on and off street cars.
Pedestrians should look ahead
and not with their noses on the
ground. they should observe
traffic laws as closely as the
drivers. Messenger boys and all
persons on bicycles should be
made to so the same as other
vehicles, not roaming all over
the streets and stealing rides"
John Simms, attorney: "Any
man who Is able to own an au-
tomobile Is able to carry insur-
ance against accident and
should be required to do so.
Judgments recovered for in
juries should be paid. Qualifica-
tons of drivers should be more
closely examined. They should
be required to pass an examina-
ton before being allowed to
drive. Some provision should be
made for bicycles and buggies
to carry lights"
l., II. Little. proprietor of the
White garage: "Cut down speed
and keep in mind the safety of
yourself and the other fellow.
The greatest number Of accidents
occur at street intersections. The
man going south does not see
the man speeding west until he
is almost upon him. Ii car drlv-
ers would slow up at crossings
it would reduce accidents rs per
cent"
J. Leon Brogan, manager
Kistler-OveIand compa NY:
Careful observance OF signal
ing rules on turning corners
would help greatly, People
should turn square corners and
not cut in. The observance of
these rules and reduction of fast
driving on busy streets would
cut down accidents"

COL. GREELEY COMING
 NORTH IN JULY TO MAKE
 STUDY OF CONDITIONS

That Colonel W. B. Greeley, chief of the bureau of forestry of the United States, will make a trip to Alaska in July, to remain in the North for a month, is the message brought to Ketchikan by c. H. Flory, Alaska superintendent of forests, who has just returned from the East.
 Colonel Greeley is much interested in Alaska; is much interested in it's development and wants to do every thing he can to make it worth more to the people in it and to the nation, :" said Mr. Flory. "He spent a great deal of time with me, going over the possibilities for paper and pulp plants in the Territory, and went with me to confer with the secretary of agri- culture, MT. Meredith"
 MT. Flory also reports that the sec retary of agriculture is taking a broad view of the situation in the North and is anxious to interest capital in the development of the resources. He is to attend the Shrine convention in Portland and if possible then he will make a hurried trip to the North.

JEFFERSON TO MAKE TRIP THRU ALASKA
 IN NEAR FUTURE

Secretary J. l.. McPherson, of the Alaska bureau, Seattle Chamber of Commerce, will leave Seattle early in July for Alaska, according to informa- tion received here. It is the intention of MT. McPherson to cover practically every section of the Territory this summer, Investigating conditions and gathering data for use in connection with future campaigns for aiding in Alaskan development work.

ANN ARB0R VARSITY TRACK MEET STARTS
 WITH MANY ENTRIES

ANN ARBOR, Mich, June (by As sociated Press) Track stars from a score of middle western colleges and universities are here to match their skill on Ferry field today and tomor- row in the twentieth annual western conference track championships.
 Ferry field is one of the finest ath- letic fields in the country. It com prises 40 acres enclosed in high brick wall The stadium encloses the football field and track. While still incomplete, the stadium already seats 30,000 persons, and when completed in concrete will seat nearly 50,0O0.
 The cinder track has a 220-yard straight-away on both sides of the field. This makes it possible to run the quarter-mile event with but one turn. It also saves one turn in the half-mile. The mile and tWo-mile events are run around the oval with out the use of the straight-away ex- tensions.
 Easing confidence on the prowess of the middle distance men in past performances, Coach Gill of the Uni versity of Illinois is optimistic over the chances of his track squad in the
  meet The defeat of Michigan, the showing made in the Drake and Penn relays, and the fight given California on foreign grounds after long trip, are cited as performances on which predictions of first place for Illinois are being made.

(From San Francisco Examiner)
 Plans were perfected in this city and Seattle today by which four trained geologists, borrowed" from the big oil corporations of California and Texas and backed by $3,500,000 of San Francisco, Seattle and New York cash, will begin this month in the Alaska oil fields a hunt for large oil pools of 45 degrees gravity oil and net in gasoline and varied high-priced lubricants which Dr. J. c. Martin of the U. s. Geological Survey and Ma jor Albert c. Brooks of the Bureau of Mines are positive can be found there
 New people are engaged in this ex- pensive search and they expect as a reward the development of wells rivaling those of Pennsylvania in gravity, quality and value.
 Two companies have started this quest, one being the Chilkat Oil Cor poration of Falcon Jos1in and his New York associates. They have sub scribed $1,000,0O0 cash.

 Because of this exemption and the good oil prospects, the people con- cerned feel justified in spending the $3,500,000 to exploint this northern oil land.
 ''Yes, it is true we have given a cash paid-up capital of $2,5OOO0O to the new Alaska Consolidated Oil Fields to develop oil pools we are confident can be found on the com pany's land," said Hartman today. ''It is a close corporation and an in- dependent one. Large American oil companies have loaned us some of their geologists and they will begin their quest for the pools in June.
 "It is a costly, scientific search and some of the best brains in the world say we are on the right track.
