"Now, if you must love somebody"

listening TO 1t all, and put her hand over

Don't believe one word she says, Sir

I never will like YOU" The emphasis

You see, 1 had begun to make love to
Jane almost before 1 was off my knees

much hurt in Mary's case. had suf-
fercd merely II touch of the general cpl

Then I knew that the best cure for
the sting which lies in a luck'ess love
is to love elsewhere, and jan, as she
stood there, 81 petite, so b~lushing and
SO fair, struck me as quite the most
pleasing antidote L could possibly find,
so L began Mt once to administer to my

ROBBED THE GRAVE

A startling incident, is narrated by
John Oliver of Philadelphia, az fol-
lows: II was In an awful condition. My
skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually In
back and sides, no appetite, growing
weaker day by day. Three physicians
had gwen me up. Then I was advised
TO use Electric Bi5ters; to my great Joy,
the first bottle made o decided Inn
provement. l continued their use for
three weeks, and am now a well man.
\ know they robbed the grave OF an
other victim" No one should fail to
try them. Only so cents guaranteed,

Drug Co.

Cruelty to Animals

The reflmementofcruelty is illustrated
in an editorial of the Charleston Post
last week calling attention to The POSTS
declaration last summer when Senator
Tillman was uttering fierce threats of
the "plenty that he would do to Char
lesion" in the event of Mr.. Won Kol-
nitz's election to the state senate. The
Post declared substantially that the
Senator was talking through his hat,
that he could not and would not ignore
In Congress the interests of q South
Carolina community. Senator Tillman
was insisting than in a letter to The
Posts editor that she was never more
serious in his life" then when making
these threats. Charleston forged
ahead and elected the Objectionable
Won Kolnitz-in spite of the United
States Senator's blacklist. The Post
during the Senator's visit to Charles
ton last week, while he was being
dined, coddled, t%rundled, fondled,
patted, pette5, stuff d, battered and
massaged with velvet fingers by the
great banking and mercantile prince
lings of Charleston, called attention to
the Senator's numerous achievements
In Charleston's behalf since the
crime of electing George Won Kol-
nitz was perpetraied. The Post OF
course commends the United States
Senator, praisrs him enormously, in
fact participates in the massage treat
ment itself. Nevertheless, when the
editorial has been read, somebody looks
like any other besmattered guy after
being uncerimoniously dragged from
the back of q high horse.

A Boast With RecoiI.

The boast comes from Columbia that
the d~ispepsary constables have for some
time beer earning their pay and ex-
penses in the value of the liquors
seized. This being true. does it not
follow that a considerable volume of
business is being done by the tigers?
So long as there is an abundance of IL
licit whiskey being seized, 1t seems
that a still greater abundance is being
handled. Fit were all seized, or even
b bulk of it, the tigers would be
driven out of business. Not even blind
tigers Will persevere in q losing game
forever 1t appears that the consta-
bles do not capture enough to destroy
the profits Of the tigers.

That Is an amusing report which
states that Mr.. Roosevelt will make

ry White slated for that berth, and
George Won L. Meyer likes living in

Why Not7
From the Duke City comes the re-
port that the Sunday observance law
will not be respected in that city for
some time to c0me. That may be the
case, but. nevertheless and notwith-
standing. the New Mexican will con
tinue TO discuss the subject until some
tangible results have been attained
one way or the other. II the provis'
Ions OF the Sunday observance law are

The irrigation Congress.

In the course of a speech at Ogden
on May Goth, President Roosevelt
said.
And now you know the proverb.
The Lord helps those who help them
selves II you throw all the duty OF
helping you on the Lord, He viii
throw 1t back on you. Now. II is the
same way with your fellow men.
Providence is not going to do every.
thing for you, and the national gov
eminent cannot. All that the nation
al government a do Is to try to
give you q fair show to help you to
the chance Of doing your work under
favorable conditions, and then the
work has got to be done by you your
self.
"And as one step toward doing this
work. I hope most earnestly that you
and al the other states in interest
will push forward and will In every
way endeavor to make the meeting
Of the irrigation congress here in
Odgen q thorough success. And
say that, not merely in the interest Of
Ogden, not merely In the interest Of
the states which are to be benefited
by irrigation. but In the INTEREST Of the
Union, | want to see that congress q
success; ! want to see the work Of
irrigation made the greatest possible
success."-From Daily Standard
May 80.
The congress to which President
Roosevelt referred Is to be held al
Ogden September Is. 10. II and IS
and II Is certainly the duty Of every
resident OF the arid land states to heir
make II . success.
1t was only by persistent and lone
continued effort that the nationa'
congress was induced to pass the
Irrigation law, and II Is only constan,
and well directed effort that will SO
cure the utilization of the Irrigation
fund to the best advantage.
II Is much that we have gained The
benevolent interest Of the east in thi,
matter. but the driving power Of tn,
irrigation movement must continue Il
come from the west.
II Is, therefore. to be hoped tina
there will be nc falling or in nun
bers or interest at the Ogden con
gress, and also that ou own stat,
and city will be suitably represented
there.-Pueblo ChieftaIn.

editorial abuse OF this city and her
people, published yesterday, that the
editors Of tne Citizen had before their
articles were writtep, received from
1 citizen OF Las Vegas, who was In no
a involved and whom they had
every reason 10 believe. a letter setting
forth very fully the facts Of the case
and giving the assurance. that the
individual who had stirred up the
trouble, hadn't 3 friend in the city.
just i word regarding the claim q
the Albuquerque editors that mem
beers Of The Optic stan had viilified
them. Even were this claim never
so true, it would be . remarkable news
paper man who would Justify the pub
location OF lies which the publishers
knew 10 be lies. But the claim ~ not
true. It is . very weak attempt TO de-
fend themselves from . violation o.
every rule OF newspaper etiquette and
decency. During the past few weeks.
the Albuquerque Citizen has been pub
fishing the miserable ISLANDERS OF this
city and her inhabitants which have
appeared In the paper issued from
Buffalo hall, furthermore, It has been
the only paper in the territory to pub
fish q line Of the slanderous utteranc-
"a. Neither or the n paper nor
the other has The Optic taken the
slightest notice. For many weeks the
Albuquerque Citizen has not been even
named by this paper. Some 81 the
members OF The Optic force have for
years been subject TO the onsiaughts
OF the Albuquerque paper. Not an
instance can be shown in the whole
history Of The Optic, where this paper
has departed an iota from the limits
Of professional etiquette. Not q per
sonality has ever appeared In The op
tic concerning them. no matter how
shining i mark might have appeared
Neither has any member Of The Op
tic force cver descended to PERSONAL
ity or abuse. The Optic attacked
newspaper policy. not editors, unit
the policy became unworthy Of oul
notice. Then we ignored the papel
entirely. The charge OF v~illiicatior
made by the Citizen is absolutely falls,
and unfounded.

Eddy County Exhibit

The live and go-ahead citizens of
Eddy county do not propose I be left
behind in the exhibit OF the resources
Of this territory at the St. Louis
Worlds Fair. They are already act
lively at work collecting and gathering
exhibits showing what Eddy county
can do in the agricultural, h%orticultu-
raj and stock raising lines. The Carls-
bad Argus says in this connection:
Eddy county will have q good ex-
hibit to add to the general exhibit
from New Mexico to be shown at the
Louisiana exposition. The CONNER
cial committee OF Union club Is al
ready working In the matter and the
county commissioners are expected,
and doubtless will, give earnest and
substantial support. New Mexico
must be well represented at st. Louis
next year, and Eddy county is going
to do Its best to have the exhibit a
