THE POLITICAL POT,
Mr.. CatrOn's Effective Canvass En-
Route to Las Vegas-Many Eli
thusiastic Republican
Meetings.
The Situation in Santa Fe and San
Miguel Counties-Appointm
for Speakers -Campaign
Crumbs.
The Catron Campaign.

Hon. L. b. Catron during the past week
held meetings at Lincoln and White
Oaks; these were remarkably successful
and very largely attended. At the meet
ing at Lincoln, Ferguson and Fall fol-
lowed Mr.. Catron, but made
SUCH POOR SHOWING
that the audience left them speaking, not
caring to stay to hear their dirty, personal
and indecent abuse. Mr.. Catron's trip
into Lincoln has made votes for the Re-
publican ticket and for him, and the
Democratic bosses are shaking their
heads obviously and sorrowfully.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Catron spoke
at La Joya,
A DEMOCRATIC STRONGHOLD
in Socorro county, the home of the Demo-
cratic nominee for sheriff of that county,
and had a splendid meeting, He stirred
matters up in Socorro county and that
bailiwick is getting into better shape
daily for the Republican ticket. The Re
publican candidates commence a full tour
of that county Monday next and will visit
every lOthlliJ anu CNClf PlSSlLSu uuLiis
the next two weeks. The mining vote is
now
SOLID FOR CATRoN,
and against Joseph, who made such poor
impression in the camps of this county
that his vote will not be 10 per cent in
those localities. The Socorro miners
want no free lead ores and want no Mex
lean peon labor competition. Joseph's
record in congress and in aiding a
foreign company to
STEAL THE WATER OF THE RIO GRANDE
from the people of New Mexico is doing
him much harm. The so-called Taos
canal covers no land in this territory but
it was simply brought into existence for
the people and irrigation companies of
the San Luis valley in Colorado.
Tonight Mr.. Catron speaks and works
IN THE WHITE CAP STRONGHOLD,
the town of San Miguel in San Miguel
county. Tomorrow and Monday he will
be in Las Vegas. Every day from now
till the day of the election is laid out fol
work and Mr. Catron's magnificent and
successful canvass will not cease till the
polls close on November 8.

H. B. Cartwright, the candidate fol
county treasurer, at Santa Fe, is so much
the best man out for that position that
comparison would seem odious. His
election would be as the dawn of q bright
er day.
Hon. Antonio Joseph for eight years a
delegate to congress from New Mexico
and steady applicant for the place al
$4,000 a year, was in town Wednesday
and addressed large audience of citi
zens at North's building in the evening
He is making hard fight to return tc
his place, but the people want change
and are beginning to sing: Not for Jo
seph; oh, no, no! not for Joe"
The people are tired of stereotyped re-
ports of the bills man has introduced il
congress during eight years of represen
tation, com pared with what another mar
has done who has never been there. Thit
style of advertising, gotten up and palt
for by Mr.. Joseph and his committee
can now be seen along with patent medl
cine ads. in all the territorial Democratic
papers. Take Beecham's pills!
Conklin has made the best record as
collector the county has had for man,
years. Neither have we heard of any
thing to the contrary in the record of hi
business life. The county disgracefull,
bankrupt and at the mercy of few per
centage sharks two years ago, has BEEF
gradually coming up until there is goo'
hope of its being established on basi
of credit with other counties that ar
prosperous and progressive. The peopl
of the county can well afford to elect hin
this fall, By wise law another goo
man must take his place two years hence
What pity the same law does not az
ply to the congressional delegate
santa Fe County Items.
W. E. Dame and Juan Delgado wer
irving to make votes in Glorieta preCinc
this week, but they failed; the voter
there are too well posted on the record Q
the gang.
