That a larger socialist vote will be

IBr Morning JournnI Special '.eased Wlr.1
Washington, Nov. b. The so-called
Italian barbarities lM Tripoli have
been brought officially to the atten
tion of the American government In
Huch form that some declaration of
the position of the state department
In the matter is expected.
The subject was broached first in
the course of n verbal statement by
the Turkish ambassador to Acting
Secretary of State Adee and later In
the day in the shape of a letter. In
each case the ambassador who de
clared he was acting under cabled In
structions from his government, des
cribed the acts attributed to the
Italian troops and protested in the
name of humanity against thP al
lege, barbarities Inflicted upon help
less women and children and non
combatants by the Italian soldiery.
Hy order of his government the
ambassador appealed to the United
States to exert Itself to put a stop
to practices that he declared were in
plain violation of the rules of war
fare and in contravention of The
Hague convention to which the
I'nited States and Italy are parties.
Acting Secretary Adee promised to
suhnilt the protest to Secretary
Knox.
Th0 ambassador's note was bnsd
upon a cablegram 'from the Turkish
minister for foreign affairs. Supple
menting this cable came another
from the Turkish foreign office later
In the day, which was also transmit
ted to the state department. This Is

Predicament.
regarded as of great importance, be
cause It formally 'demands interven
tion by the United States. It reads as
follows:
"The Italian atrocities In Tripoli
are being confirmed fficlally and from
every quarter, I heg'Your Excellency
to reiterate the representations, pre
scribed in my pr, using telegram U
assist upon the necessity of prompt
and efficacious Intervention In order
to put an end immediately to these

Supreme Court of United States
Expected to Announce Opin
ion in So- Called Colorado
Safety Appliance Case,
I Br Mnrninf JournnI Bperlnl Imwsl Wlrc l
Washington, Nov. 5. Another de
cision of far-reaching importance by
the supreme court in .regard to the
extent of the application of the fed
eral safety applianoe laws are looked
for tomorrow.
When the court took under consid
eration the "Alabama Safety Appli
ance Case," In which It decided last
Monday that the safety appliance
laws extend to all cars and to locomo
tives on any railroad that Is a high
way for Intra-state commerce It also
began deliberation on the so-called
"Colorado Safety Appliance Case."
Many have expressed the belief
that a decision In this case will be
forthcoming tomorrow.
The decision In the Colorado case
is expected to tarn on the definition
of "interstate commerce" within the
meaning of the safety appliance
laws. The government Is seeking to
enforce the law on the Colorado
Northwestern railroad, a new narrow
gauge line entirely within the bord
ers of Houlder county, Colorado. It Is
attempting to apply the law in the
ease of a shipment which went on a
waybill first from Omaha to Hould
er, Col'i . and subsequently after a
new waybill was Issued, oil to another
point In Colorado.
The government claims among
other things that unlike the laws re
lating to Interstate rates, there Is
no restriction on interstate commerce
to which the safety appliance laws
apply, the acts were restricted to In
terstate commerce moving in "con
tinuous passage," w hile the safety ap
pliance acts apply to Interstate ship
ments Hint are not In "continuous
pussage."
The railroad contends lhat Inter
stato commerce is the sumo, under
the rate laws as under the safety ap
pliance i.its and that the interpreta
tion of what is "interstate commerce"
already giver In the rate cases must
he kivon in the safety appliance case.

Do You Believe Francisco Hubbell or
the Records ?
Francisco Hubbell, in a campaign circular, signed by bis cbair
niati. Joe Saint, says: - "Mr. Alfred Grunsfcld ami lii.i associates on
the county commission raised your county tax rate more than SO
cents upon the $100.00 of valuation, and "that in 1911 a further in
crease of 10 cents on such valuation has been made."
The records show that FRANK IIUmiF.US LAST TAX
RATH WAS 27 MILLS. THF 11IG1IKST IX Till. HISTORY
OF THF, COUNTY; AT FRF.SKNT IT IS 23.08 MILLS. Ami
the taxes are spent on t lie county and in it on Frank Hubbell.
Francisco HiibbeH's circular says : "Ihiring this time not a
single piece of decent public road has been built, not a single public
improvement has been made."
Aniono; the pieces of road built are a splendid highway from
the University t old Albuquerque, costing $l'.0tK), perfect perman
ent work done at the lowest possible figure; two immense fills at
each ehd of the I'.arelas bridge; a
Alameda, replacing impassable sand, costing $10,000, of which the
county paid $6,0(X), done under the supervision of the state engin
eer: a snletu id road five miles
bridge, dozens of miles nf road elsewhere all permanent and econom
ical with every cent accounted for; road tax collected for first time
and mad supervisors honest for first time.
In addition ten miles of flood proof dykes have been built: a
complete survey and classification of the county has been made;
two magnificent steel bridges costing nearly $1DO,000 have been
elected ; schools have been built, the jail enlarged and repaired and
made sanitary, the court bouse repaired, and thousands of dollars
spent on other public, improvements.
The Hubbell circular says: "The county funds at this time are
in deplorable shape; the fund for general covuly purposes is worse
than bankrupt, because many bills of our merchants and others re
main unpaid."
The report of the county treasurer of September SO, the last
monthly report, shows cash on hand of over FIGHT Y-SKVLN
THOUSAND DOLLARS.
It shows in the general fund nearly N1NF, THOUSAND DOL
LARS. FVFRY I'ROI'F.RLY AUDITFD HILL HAS LFFX LAID
EVERY MONTH IN FULL.
When Frank Hubbell went out of power no hills had been paid
for one year; not a cent of current expenses had been paid during that
time; every county fund was overdrawn and the new commissioners
headed by (runsfcld faced the problem of running the county with
the county income mortgaged for a year in advance and the sale
looted.
.The Hubbell circular says : "The court fund is bankrupt. Tor
the past three terms it has been impossible to hold a full term of
court, because of lack of funds. Livery oilier fund is in equally de
plorable condition."
THE TREASURER'S REPORT SHOWS OVER $5,000 IN
THE COURT FUND; full terms have been held. When Frank
Hubbell was kicked out of power no court had been held for a year.
The Hubbell circular says: "Thousands of dollars Liave been
wasted in the feeding of prisoners in the count v jail."
On Mr. Ilnbbeirsown showing. IT COSTS FROM $4,000 TO
$6,000 LESS TO FEED THE COUNTY PRISONERS THAN
IT DID UNDER 1 IULHELL'S LAST SHERIFF, when Hubbell
forced a bill through the legislature making his SHERIFF A PRE
FERRED CREDITOR OF THE COUNTY, to whom every avail
able cent of income should be given to add to the $10,000 used at
that time for "feeding prisoners."
There are some more flimsy lies in that circular to which
Joseph E. Saint has affixed bis signature as Frank IlubbcH's
chairman.
The foregoing is enough to show you the methods of Fran
cisco Hubbell in his desperate effort to win this county election;
on which he has spent now from $50,000 to $75,000.
Do you want these accomplished liars to take over the fi
nances of your county?
