Bilyeu, He made q clear and torci-

squarely on the county platform. His
exposure of the legislative methods of

bitterness. Mr.. Watson throws no
mud, but is thorough gentleman on
the rostrum as well as in private life.
He is a lawyer of recognized ability
and man Of integrity. The people
will have an able, honest and active
friend in Mr.. Watson. He should be
elected.

an address, but IN a brief and manly
way gave the people to understand

The Citizen says:
One of the chief points in the campaign
of education is to show the people that
the money issue is not contest between
gold and silver, but between Republican
bimetallism and Democratic monometal-
lism.
That is very true. The Republican
platform stands for the financial govern
ment of the United States by Lombard
street and Wall street. That is its bi.
metallism, and they make up the hardest
brassiest pair the world has ever known
The Democratic platform declares fol-

ond one is two-gold and silver.-GalIup

THIS is the first season on record, says
the Pueblo Chieftain, when New Mexico
has had more rain than Colorado. The
cloud factory is somewhere up in the
northwest, you know, in or about the

the clouds are fired in a southeasterly
direction in the summer time. But this
year the powder was too strong, and
they overshot the usual mark and went
beyond the place intended.
