with, He, however, advised the voters to
look into the matter for themselves and
vote accordingly.

the best citizens of Santa Fe; the voters
of the I'd ward should vote for him.

politics.; the man who tries to make il
such is opposed to the progress of Sants
Fe.
j. D. Hughes has made an excellent
city clerk in every respect. In his case
the office sought the man. You can MOI

right here, thus going back into thu
pockets of the laborer.
The city must have progressive ant
| honest men in the offices of mayor ant
| ldermen; it must be improved, mad,
md kept healthy, cleaned up and KEEP
clean. SO says the New MEXICAN. Amen
