CAMPAIGN CAROLS.
Score One for the Valencia Independ-
ents-POlitical Notes of Local
Moment.

The following card explains itself. 1t
shows that the path of the Los Lunas
bosses will not be strewn with roses
The nomination of the Independent ticket
in Valencia county is going to call to its
support great many who are tired of
the ring rule with which Valencia county
has been afflicted for so many years. But
here is the card:
To the Public:
Laguna, N. NJ, Oct. %, 1S94.-I wish TO
state that AS my name was placed on the
Republican ticket in Valencia county as
county surveyor without my knowledge, 1
therefore wish to have my name with
drawn from the ticket.
GEO. H. PRADT.
Col. Pradt doesn't propose to endorse
the ole Republican ring methods, and
will use his best endeavors to rid Valencia
county of the crowd which has long dis
graced her in the eyes of all honorable
men.
In no manner can this be 80 thoroughly
compassed as by every good citizen
coming at once to the support of the In
dependent ticket. On this ticket may be
found such men as i. A. Dow, lifelong
Republican, who has become disgusted
with the methods of Catron, Chavez, ct
al. Mr.. Dow is merchant at Tejique,
thoroughly known the territory over as
an honest, upright man. Col. w. G.
Marmon Is the nominee for the house and
Antonio Campes is his associate, both
good men. Francisco X. Vigil is the can
didate for sheriff and will do his duty. In
fact, the whole ticket is such a one as was
never before nominated in Valencia, and
is deserving of the best efforts of the
people of that community.

With Sheriff Cunningham as the princi-
oal peace officer Of the county and Sol
'pieKelberg as collector of taxes, while
frank Cor zales looks after the assess
nents, Santa Fe county will make clever
progress during the next two years. But
