The Dem ocrats of Santa Fe county held
a rousing rally Saturday night at Gray's
hall. The number present and the in
tense enthusiasm which prevailed make
it certain that victory is ahead and that
at the polls tomorrow the Catronist ring
masters and their candidates will be
swept out of political existence by the
peoples votes.
The rally was preceded by great
parade through the principal streets of
the city. In the procession were to be
seen scores Of Democrats bearing trans
parencies containing the portraits Of
Delegate Joseph, Hon. John P. Victory and
other candidates and last but not least
THE FAMILIAR FEATUBEs
of the lamented Francisco Chavez. This
line OF march was illumined by beautiful
lights which made the scene one of rare
picturesqueness. ,-----------
When the Procession arrived at Gray's
! hail, the building was quickly crowded
by strong-lunged Democrats who made
their ardor apparent by the vociferous
applause with which the remarks of the
various speakers we're greeted; and when
later in the evening the delegation, which
had gone down to the train to meet
Sheriff Cunningham on his return from
Mora comfy, returned, accompanying
that popular candidate, it seemed as if
the
ROOF WOULD BIZ RAISED
in honor of the man who has done his
duty so nobly in the past.
The meeting was called to order at 8
O'Clock by Mr.. Marcelino Garcia, chair
man of the county executive committee.
1t was quickly organized by the election
of Hon. Charles f. Easley as chairman,
A. B. Renehan as secretary and Dona-
ciano Vigil as interpreter. Upon motion,
all the candidates in the hall were in
vited to seats on the stage.
The first address of the evening was
made by Gov. W. I. Thornton. The gov
ernor hal Just returned from the south
ern portion of the territory where the
most encouraging prospects for the cleo
ton of Mr.. Joseph exist and he was
greeted with great applause. He said,
among other things: II have just re-
turned to the city after trip of several
weeks duration into the various portions
of the territory, and am very happy to
tell you that 40 not think there is any
doubt as to the election of Antonio
Joseph. l EN- happy to meet here to-
~; 70 vvh n or
for the preservation of law and order in
this community. I am confident that the
people of this county are going to do
their share toward bringing criminals to
justice by the election of the whole
Democratic ticket, including that fearless
and honest official, William P. Cunning
ham. am just in receipt of a telegram
informing me of the conviction OF
THE cowARDLy AURDRRERs
in Mora county, this event having been
largely brought about through the efforts
of Sheriff Cunningham, who, estseming
duty above self, has stayed away from
this county at this important juncture
for the purpose of doing his duty to the
people of this territory in the suppress
sion of crime. s.
"This election is of more than ordi-
nary importance. Democratic victory on
Tuesday means statehood, and statehood
means the restoration of Fort Marcy and
scores of other happenings which will
make the people of New Mexico rejoice
Under statehood, with voting represen
tation of three in congress, We will re-
store silver to the place as a money
metal it occupied previous 10 its demon
citation by the Republican party. We
will repeal tho alien law, which keeps
millions of: dollars annually out of our
territory; and we will make New Mexico
one of the proudest and most prosperous
states in the whole sisterhood. Let every
DEM crat in the county on next Tuesday
60 to the polls determined to vindicate by
his vote the memory OF Francisco Chavez,
and determined to usher into Office the
good and honest men who occupy places
on the ticket nominated at your county
court house meeting two weeks ago."
Mr.. Adolph P. Hill, the popular candi-
date for probate clerk, next spoke in
Spanish. He referred, he said, with pride
to his record as city clerk and pledged
HIS BEST EFYoRTs,
if elected, to conduct his Office in a
manner that would benefit the whole
people. He said that the present issue
was between the people on the one hand
and Catronisn on tho other. He warned
the people against voting for man
whose sole desire in being sent to con-
gress is the protection of his own inter-
ests, and he eulogized Mr.. Joseph as a
man whose best talents had been devoted
to the peoples cause. Mr. Hill took
occasion to pour some hot shot into
Charles A. Spiess, of whom he spoke
IS "the tool of T. B. Catron" and
the man who, although a Democrat
IN Mora county four years ago, quickly
changed to Republication in Santa Fe as
matter OF personal advantage. Mr.. Hill
eulogized Mr.. Victory and Sheriff Gun
bingham and called attention to the fact
that as legislative councilman, Ambrosio
Pine had done absolutely nothing for the
people, doing only Catron's bidding. He
urged the importance of repudiating the
party that would put forward such man
az Marcos Castlllofor school uperintend-
emit and warned his audience a. to the mixed
tickets which are reported to be in circula-
ton.
Hon. J. H. Crist was next introduced
, amid the cheers of the audience. His ad-
dress WAS most eloquent one. He
