i Remarkable Cure of Tyler Man
Effected at Neal Institute, Ex*

and Comment
■V '
i
tED IN LESS THAN TWO WEEKS
, Mr. C. G. Borne, of Tyler, Texas,
writes of his experience as a
patient at the Dallas Neal
Institute.
Using: thirty grains of cocaine dally,
well as almost a quart of whisky,
r. C. G. Berne of Tyler, Tex., in less
than two week's time was cured of his
affliction and restored to health and
self-mastery. Concerning his expe-
rience at the Institute, he writes:
Dallas, Tex., May 20th, 1911.
“Having taken several other treat’
menus in Louisiana and Texas, during
the past few years without satisfac-
tory results, it gives me extreme pleas-
ure to say that I have been wonder-
I fully transformed during my stay at
' the Neal Institute, and in less than
j two weeks changed from an almost
- physical wreck to health and self-
mastery. I consider the Neal treat-
I.’ ment a God-send to men or women
who are addicted, as I was, to drink
or drug, and I also want to state that
the physicians, nurses and manage-
ment are all thoroughly capable gen-
tlemen. My stay with them was very
enjoyable, and the attention and ser-
vice which was given me was excel-
lent. *
“In the very highest terms and with
a heart full of gratitude I recommend
the Neal Institute and the Neal Treat-
ment as being worthy of the highest
consideration^ as they are able to
painlessly yet perfectly and thorough-
ly cure the drink habit and drug ad-
diction in a very few days.
(Signed) "C. G. BORNE,
"328 S. Broadway, Tyler, Tex."
Any man or woman who is addicted
to the use of some life-sapping drug

sured patients so desiring, no public-

STRANGER KILLED BY
TRAIN AT MELROSE.
Special to The Times.
Melrose, N. M., May 23.—A strang-
er about 50 years of age, thought to
be from Marysville of Valley View,
Mo., was cut in two here this mottl-
ing by a westbound Santa Fe freight
train. Bedford White, son of Section
foreman White, was the only witness
of the tragedy. He says that the
man either suddenly fainted and fell
or else threw himself In front of the
approaching train. The body of the
unfortunate man was completely sev-
ered though the features were not In-
jured. He wore a short cropped mus-
tache and chin whiskers. He had
been seen about Clovis and Melrose
for two or. three days, but, so far as
ran be learned, had spoken to no one
concerning his businee. The train
was just pulling into the station when
the tragedy occurred, so that it, is im-
probable that the unfortunate man

Special to The Times.
San ’Antonio, Tex., May 23.—That
the greatest trouble in Mexico will
come when the revolutionists line up
at the “pie” counter is the opinion
of several of the ex-revoluttonlsts who
were in wJpat was known as the Amer-
ican legion.
According to these men, Madero, or
some of his supporters, have prom-
ised the men who have gone through
the revolution a good Job, 160 acres
of choice land and -also an interest In
the Terrazas cattle. It was said the
revolutionary leaders plan the con-
fiscation of all of the Terrazas herds.
“When the revolutionary chiefs at-
tempt to make this distribution yon
can rest assured there is going to be
some trouble,” said one of the Amer-
ican ex-revolutionists. “Ji»st how this
iH all going to be brought about is
something that I cannot figure out,
and I don’t think any of the revolu-
tionary leaders can do It, either.
“I found the Mexican was a peculiar
Individual in some respects. While
the Mexlcap army was being paid at
the rate of 30 cents a day there were
a great many desertions, but when
President Diaz raised the pay of the
soldier to a peso a day the .desertions
■were not nearly so frequent. So you
see a little extra Inducement holds the
men pretty well In line. Also, a lot
of men in the revolutionary ranks are
tired of fighting for patriotic motives,
so to speak. I believe while this lull
in the fighting is on a great many will
cease to be revolutionists.
“Then again, therq is no telling what
is going to happen when General
Reyes gets back into the republla.
A lot of enemies of Reyes say th«
people of .the country will condemn
him and call him a coward for going
on the other side of the ocean. But
I think a great many of the soldiers
will be glad to see him back in the
republic. If the general is given a
free hand and made minister of war,
with 'instructions to go ahead, I be-
lieve you will find things entirely
different from what some persons now
believe they will be in another year.
Anything is liable to happen in Mex-
ico with the minds of the people in
an inflamed, condition.
Likely to Face Famine.
“There is another thing a great
many peojile not familiar with condi-
tions in the republic have not thought
about. This is the situation the poorer
classes are going to face as a result
of this continued fighting, robbery
and pillage. This is the planting
season in the republic and a very
great amount of the agricultural sec-
tion of Northern Mexico has received
no attention whatever. This plant-
ing season will soon come to an end
and whattare these poor people going
to do without bread? You probably
remember Mexico has at certain per-
iods In a number of years raised the
duties on grain so that it might be
sold to the poor at the lowest pos-
sible price. And this was necessary
in those years when crops were har-
vested and the country at peace. What
do you suppose is going to happen
when a great many of the poor have
a famine staring them in the face,
ahd that Is not at all unlikely?
“So you see the revolution has a
dark side to it, a side that many have
not considered while the thrill of bat-
tle enthused and while there was still
plenty. But when a great many of
these larders down there are empty,
when there is no crop to harvest,
when livestock sacrificed to the cause
of the revolution is not replaced, you
can see how easy it will be to bring
on the worst kind of discontent, and
that results when people are hungry.
“I do not blame the people, and
especially those who have been op-
pressed. for fighting for freedom. I
hope there is gulng to be a freedom
for them and without a further cost in
blood. There are a number of widows
And orphans In the republic now, a
lot of them, and God only knows how
they will fare. It gets next to one to
have to think of these poor devils.
1 hope when they do finally settle
down the first thing done will be to
prevent the starving of many of the
poor.
“It is all very good, this talk of
how Mexico is going to blossom forth
under a new administration. I pre-
sume it will, but It is going to take
a lot of time, for In Mexico*things
move slowly and I do not think you
can find anything in history to show
that a country recovered overnight
from war, whether it was a civil war
or otherwise.
Have Man's Size Job.
“If the promises to the revolution-
ists are fulfilled and thegreat estates
cut up and an impoverished people
put thereon it Is going to deprive the
federal and the state governments of
a great deal of revenue drived from
taxation. How will those men. settling
on these lands, who must build
themselves huts or houses, provide
themselves with farming Implements
and build their fences, and pay taxes
for two or three years? This war in
Mexico has cost the country heavily.
I fall to see where there is going to
be enough money left in the treasury
to set up all of these *aeople in busi-
ness so to speak.
“The foreign interests, too. have suf-
fered. As a consequence it will not be
advisable to inflict greater burdens of
taxation upon them. Many of the
great industries in which foreign capi-
tal his been invested are idle as a re-
sult of the unsettled conditions. A
big Industry suffers Just as does a
smaller one. Just think of what the
cost has been to the railroads alone.
I know the railroads will be heavy
sufferers, not alone from the loss of
business, but the cost of replacing the
prooerty that has been destroyed.
“Bo when you sum It up on the
whole, anyone with presidential ambi-
tions. and likewise those who would
be cabinet officers or the governors
of states, have before them what I
would call a man’s size Job. It is go-
ing to take level-headed and far-
thinking business men to bring back
conditions to the normal stage. The
officeholder in Mexico who is going
to place his political ambitions above
everything is going to be sadly out of
place.
"dome persons, probably a great
many, will not agree with everything
1 have said to you, but I have seen a
good bit of Mexico, and knowing the
conditions, the actual conditions as
they now are, feel that I am entitled
to an opinion or two.”
BROAD AMNESTY ;
EXTENDED THE REBELS.
Speetol to Tho Timet.
Mexico City, Mex.. May 23.—In the
program of peace arrangements an-
nounced by the government after the
cabinet meeting oil Wednesday last,
was an understanding, on the part of
the administration to support a broad
amnesty bill to congress.
This bill was passed at yesterday's
session of the chamber of deputies
and was of the following tenor:
“We ask the chamber to approve,
under suspension of the rules, the
following propositions:
"Art. I.—An amnesty is granted
to all individuals .who, at the date
of the promulgation of tho present
decree, shall be subject to process of
law or under sentence for rebellion
or sedition against the federation.
"Art. 2.—In consequence, all per-
sons included In the foregoing article
shall be released unconditionally, a
decree of supersedeas being entered
In the dockets of their cases and all
orders of release under bond being
forthwith made absolute.
"Hall of sessions of the chamber of
deputies, Mexico, May 22, 1911.
(Signed) 1. Manuel Calero, Ricardo
Garcia Granados, Benito Juarez, Ri-
cardo Mollua.”
As requested, it was decided that
the measure was to pass without the
formalities of first and second read-
ing /bo as to become law as soon as
possible.
Deputy Manuel Calero spoke in be-
half of the measure. “I have taken
the floor,” he said, “in order to show
very briefly why this bill should be
passed. The revolution has triumph-
ed throughout the country both In a
military and political sense. The pres-
ident and his cabinet have recognized
it by entering into peace negotiations
with it. The president has become
convinced that the revolution is popu-
lar and has promised to present his
resignation. in these circumstances,
it is only fair that prison gates should
be opened to political suspects, for If
the government orders Its forces to
turn over entire states to armed rev-
olutionists It Is unreasonable to hold
In confinement any longer the un-
armed ■ adherents of the revolution.
“We. therefore, ask the chamber to
approve at once the projected am-
nesty.”

is also a 20-horse power gasoline en«

other complette outfit which he op-

success that he decided to operate two

The farmers of the Mesllla valley
are going back to the wheat crop..One
time wheat was the staple crop of tins
valley, but alfalfa cro>r3ed It to the
rear. Now, however, the farmers are
beginning to see that their lands
should have a diversity of crops ana
that wheat yields a handsome reveu.
ue. Not only the 30 or 40 bushels re-
ceived each year per acre but ^he
fact that a crop of beans, corn, cane
and other late crops can bo produced
on the same soil. With the modern
methods of growing and handling the
wheat crop there Is every reason to
believe that it will tayp its place In
the front rank with other crops In
this valley.. /
