DAVENPORT FARMERS FLOWING.
Rain Has Put the Ground in TIE Best
OF Shape.

DAVENPORT, Oct 2D.-The rain Of the
past few days has put the ground in ex-
ceI!ent shape for p!owing and farmers are
taking advantage of it. The indications
are that the farmers will pay more atten-
ton to diversified farming than ever before,
the past two years having shown them the
fallacy of depending solely upon one class
OF product Tor crop and price. Oats are
in good demand but nard to get. The open
ing I'D Of the Huckleberry mining district
has given the farmers nearby new hope, as
all products bring a good price.

a gallant fight against criminal
domination in New Mexico wher-

not at all whether the criminal
was a republican or democrat,
wherever the Governor found him
he fought him. If our people
wish to aid in the suppression of
crime in New Mexico let them

men who will uphold Governor
Thornton's hands in the good fight
he ismaking against criminals; and
not vote for men who will oppose

here % years ago and has had no

Indians and rustlers, has gathered
his little property together, and
worked and fought as a good man

what Grant County has gone thro.
in the past. He has fought in
the front ranks for Grant County,
with his rife in his hand, along
side many of our best, old-time

man; a man with a clean, unsullied

best fitted to look after Grant

Yhenmnh a Mischief maker.

Mr.. Editor OF the SENTINEL.
AS a democrat, please allow me
a small space in your paper. /
have just returned from Allison,
N. NJ, and 1hnd, the first thing,
that some one has published in
the Enterprise that there IS a dis
turbance inthat school. I spent
several days there and with the
patrons of that school, and they
all spoke very highly of Mr..
Brown aRd said that there was no
disturbance IN the school, One
of the trustehs made a statement
that he told Mr.. Brown that the
trustees were we'll satisfied with
his teaching; and for him to 90
ahead as he had done and still
continue; a6dRll of the patrons /
had any talk with we're highly
pleased With the school; but some
time back our school superintend1
ent created a. small disturbance
by trying to dictate to Mr.. Brown,
our old and well qualified teacher.
Mr.. Theilman left no impress
sion, but the trustees spoke openly
of his interfering before he had
consulted them. 1t is probable
he had spent an evening with
some one of the had-be candi-
dates for school trustee who was
not then in the race and probably
felt a little sore over it. This is
the whole thingin a nutshell, and
the 9th of November will substan-
tate the above statement when
Mi. B. T.. Link comes in with his
overwhelming majority.
Very Respectfully Yours,

the effect that Geo. w. Miles, the
man who is going to represent the

formed a combination with r. H.

for aid from him. There is of
course absolutely no truth in the

as a lie, from the platform in his

well known the majority Of the

for Theilman and are satisfied
that he cannot be elected, and they
therefore do not mind hurting him
by using his name in this story il
only they can injure MI. Miles at

DEMING democrats are coming
TO the defense of Sheriff Laird.
They do not approve of the lies
published in the Headlight-En-
terprise.
Truly it seems that the whole
republican County ticket would be
elected but for democratic liesl
When Laird and Baca are elected,
according to the Enterprise, they
will be lied into Office. The En-
terprise is getting desperate and
grasping Mt straws. The republi-
can ticket this time is a scurvy
mess even for the Enterprise to
swallow; but a bitter pill is often
forced down q mans throat. The
Headlight has not abused Laird.
The Enterprise has abused him;
and we think hat the Enterprise
is lying on the Deming democrats
as to their supporting Laird. Dem
ing has got enough of Laird now
and forever. Laird must go. Laird
has gulled the people into voting
for him the last time. He can't buy
enough votes either with promise
or money to elect him again; aud
after this election he will have to
bid a long farewell to all his great
ness.
