New Mexico Public Schools.

Those not acquainted with actual
conditions in New Mexico will be apt
to find cause for complaint in the school
statistics of many of the counties of the
territory. For instance, in Dona Ana
county, out of a total school population
of 3,119, there is only an average daily
attendance at school of COL, and that for
not quite six months. There should be
at least fifty teachers employed for over
3,119 school children, while actually only
twenty-three teachers are at work, and
most of those at very poor salaries.
Nevertheless, even this Is a great stride
forward from conditions ten and TWEEN
ty years ago. 1t must not be forgotten
that most of the school districts Of New
Mexico are Of vast extent and very
sparsely settled. There are no big in
terests or industries to tax for school
purposes in most of the districts. The
average resident pays more for school,
purposes than does the average resi-
dent in many of the states. Nearly ev-
cry school district has it's school house.
and the cause of education is advanc-
ing rapidly with every year. In the 3,119
children are included all persons from
5 to q years Of age. These are the ex
tremes Of school age, while the average
school age should be taken as from Z to
ia years, which would bring up the per-
centage Of attendance much higher. 1t
can be safely said that 80 to 30 per cent
OF the children Of New Mexico are re-
ceiving a primary education. and that
per cent compares favorably with that
of other states.

o. A. L%arrazolo, the Democratic NOM
inee for congress, is an energetic cam
paigner, or else he would never have
made the nomination against the bet
ter second sense of the Democratic par
ty, but his campaign methods and en-
thusiasm will avail him little on cleo
ton day. The Republicans of New Mex
leo have nominated a man for delegate
who measures up much more closely to
the ideal of the people, and who stands
for those principles which mean protec-
ton to home industries, honor to the
flag and a clean government, while, if
the policies which the Democratic a n
didate advocates would prevail, hun
dreds of families in the territory would
be financially ruined and all progress in
New Mexico would come to a %standstill.

A Word 10 the Sheepmen

It is a plain and undeniable fact that
the policy Of the Democratic party,
whenever in power, was to destroy one
of the leading industries of this terri
tory, namely, the raising of sheep and
the growing of wool. 1t is also a plain
and undeniable fact that under Repub-
lican administrations and under Repub-
lican policies the sheep owners and ev-
cry person connected with sheep raising
and wool growing have prospered. 1t is
but common sense and self preservation
therefore hat the citizens of New Mex
leo should vote for Bernard S. Rodey,
the Republican nominee for delegate to
congress. and against the Democratic
nominee for the same office. The for
mer represents what is best for the best
interests of the people, and the latter
what is most detrimental to them. This
is the case in a nutshell, and needs no
long and learned argument for full and
clear understanding.

The Italians are still leaders in art, in
music and even in science, although
n would not suppose so after ac-
quaintanceship with the average Ital-
ian in the United States. But these are
the very poorest and the most ignorant
members of that nation, and have been
recruited from the slums of Naples and
other large cities, and are as little typi-
of the Italian intelligence and cul-
ture as are the residents of the slums of
New York or Chicago of the American
people. Only yesterday the announce
ment "a made that an Italian had dis
covered a certain preventative and cure
of yellow fever. If that is true he is one
of the great benefactors of mankind, for
next to the plague and the cholera of
the Orient, yellow fever demands more
victims annually than any other cpl
demic.

The NOMINEE.
How Hon. Bernard s. Rodey Is Regarded
at Home.

albuquerque Journal-Democrat.)
sion the Republican territorial conven-
ton at Santa Fe completed it's work
yesterday by the selection of Bernard
s. Rodey, of this city, as the candidate
from New Mexico for the term begin
ming the 4th of next March.
Although he was not the most prom
inent candidate at the start, he COM
manded the unanimous support of the
convention at the finish, and the result
was not a surprise to his friends, be-
cause they knew him to be of congress
sional size, and knew also that he had
hosts of friends and admirers in all
parts of the territory who would gladly
give him their support after local as
pirants were out of the way.
The nomination is a good one and a
strong one; good, because the candidate
possesses those qualifications which
were regarded as essential in the early
days of the republic, being able, honest
and worthy; and strong because he is
popular with the people in all parts of
the territory, and because his untiring
energy will give us one Of the most
thorough and forceful campaigns ever
conducted in New Mexico.
The nominee has lived in Albuquer-
que since he was a boy; his whole bust
ness life has been spent here; he Is well
known personally to nearly all of our
people, as also to thousands of others in
almost every nook and corner of the
territory, and wherever known he is re-
spected for his intellectual ability, his
interchangeable industry and his unspot-
ted moral character. He is a clean man
in every respect, and one who can be
supported cheerfully by those who be-
lieve that our best men should be cho-
sen for Office. He is am orator of no
mean ability, is a ready, fluent and con-
vincing speaker, and when he goes to
congress, though only in the capacity of
a delegate without a vote, the people of
the territory may rest assured that
New Mexico will be heard from and her
interests ~zealously guarded.

years, and has done many kind acts to

True Words.

THE condition of the internal affairs
of the territory, and the conduct of the
various territorial institutions during
the past four years, under the wise and
prudent laws passed by the last legisla-
ture, has greatly improved, and will be
g strong argument not only for the cleo
ton of our nominee for delegate, but
for members of the legislature and the
various county officers. Fifty thousand
dollars of our territorial debt, bearing
6 per cent interest, has been cancelled.
our rate of interest has been reduced,
not only for the territory, but for many
of the counties, to 4 per cent; taxes are
more promptly paid, and collections are
larger than ever before; and the COM
Jig legislature, instead of facing a large
a surplus. which it will doubtless apply
to a further reduction of the public
debt" These are the words of Govern
or Otero, uttered only a few days ago,
and they are true, every one of them,
and might have been put much strong
err. What a contrast to the dolefuI
financial report made annually by the
Democratic treasurers of the territory
Governor Otero continues: "This has
not come to pass by accident or the na
ture of things, but by Republican legis.
lation, faithfully administered by Re.
publican officials" This is a fact which
will be brought home to every voter OF
the territory who has not yet taken the
time to consider it: it is a fact which
will give New Mexico a big Republican
majority on November 6, and a fac
against which all the platitudes of Bry.
anism cannot and will not avail.

Hon. B. S. Rodey stands square and
fair for statehood. He believes sincere
ly that the people of New Mexico are
entitled to their birthright of freedom,
which has been denied them for fifty
years; he believes that New Mexico is
more than a colony, and that it's people
are entitled to every right and privilege
hat the constitution of the United
States grants to every citizen of the
states. It is time that New Mexico be no
longer regarded as a foreign country,
but as a part of the great and glorious
United States.
