some time ago. concluded the merger

evil.

convincing evidence than he had
brought, and on which the Juries
failed to convict, and Darrow was

proving it to the satisfaction of a jury
is another thing.

For a long time the people of Doug
las have been anticipating with plea
sure the running of the Golden State
limited through that town, and last
month when It was put on there was
great rejoicing. When the new trains
were put on there was a readjust
ment of the mail service. Before that
postal clerks ran over the Southwest
ern, both ways, between El Paso and
Tucson. On the new schedule they
only run between El Paso and Doug
las, and express pouches are made up
for towns west of Douglas, while the
west bound limited carries mall over
the entire line, the east bound limit
ed does not carry a mall car. Last
week there was a mass meeting In
BIsbee to consider the matter, and re
solutions were passed demanding that
the towns on the Southwestern be
given adequate mall facilities. Under
the express pouch system It takes
from 36 to 43 hours for mails to be
exchanged at offices but a few miles
apart. Everybody In authority, from
the BIsbee postmaster to the Second
Assistant postmaster general, was ap
pealed to for relief, even If It becomes
necessary to put the Golden State
Limited back on the Southern Pa
cific.

ing to the railroads, and there listen

mora, Juan C. Sanches, and Librado
Valencia, county commissioners of
Torrance county. The last grand jury
brought charges against these men,
alleging they weie Incompetent and
had neglected their duties. They got
a change to Lincoln county, and will
not be tried until March. Charges
were brought against them, asking
that they be suspended until they
were tried. They asked for a change
of venue In this case, but It was re
fused. They then asked that they be
tried by some other Judge than Judge
Medler, the judge for the district.
claiming he was prejudiced. Judge
Medler granted the request and got
Judge Neblett to come and hear the
case. Judge Neblett beard the ev
Idence and promptly suspended them,
pending the outcome of the case
against them. Governor McDonald
will have the appointment of their
successors.
S. R. Dunagan and his son Ben
were In town the first of the week,
coming In In Mr. Dunagan's New
Ford, making the trip without any
trouble except one mud hole, where
they could get no traction, to pull
out. They Jacked up the rear wheels,
put on the chain and pulled out
without any trouble. When they to-
turned to the Animas they took with
them the Misses Thelma Marshall
and Pearl Wright, who went to spend
the holidays In the Animas, where
the people have great times, when
there Is any excusa, such as Christ
mas and New Year.

Monday was the big day In the
Christmas rush at the local postofflce,
as regards 'matter mailed out. On
that day there were sent out from
this office five large sacks of pan:
post matter. One sack went west and
and the other four contained package
for points east of El Paso, and were
sent to the terminal railway post
office at El Paso, a new organization
caused by the rush of the parcel post
business, which works over all the
parcel post mall from west of El Paso,
and distributes It so that It will go as
far as possible without having to be
handled again, thus saving much
time for the clerks on the road, and
just now they have no time to lose.
On the east bounnd train No. 2 there
were two extra cars piled to the roof
with through parcel post matter. In
the local office the stamp sales of the
day in sums of less thanl dollar,
amounted to over thirty dollars. The
express companies' employes are hav
ing an easy time, as compared with
former years.
