Thanksgiving day was duly observed
in this vicinity and people laid aside
their duties and devoted the day to
giving thanks, visiting and social
bility. Many families entertained
guests and nearly everyone makes it a
point to 60 back to the old home on
Thanksgiving. To MANY the day
brings a sense of sadness in thinking
over the past as death has entered
many homes since last year and that
dear one who has shared SO many
Thanksgiving dinners with them has
gone. To us that great trouble has
never come and we trust it is far
distant.

The Value Of One Vote.

No, | didn't vote at the last
election, because | thought one
vote wouldn't make any differ
ence."
Let US see what sometimes de-
ponds on one vote. In the spring
of 1911, at the annual election in
Rhode Island, there was a town
precinct closely contested by the
federal and the republican [peace
and war parties. A federal far
mer, hurrying down to vote just
before closing time, was stopped
on the way by finding one his
valuable rigs fast between the
plankS of a fence, He tried to
pull the pig out and failed.
Then with some difficulty he
pried away one of the planks, re-
leased the pig, and started on a
run for the voting place. Just
as he got within hundred feet
Of it the town clock struck six.
The polls closed without his vote.
The result was the war repre-
/ sentative from that town was
elected by one vote. When the
. general assembly met a few
weeks afterward a war senator
was chosen by one majority on
Joint ballot. In 1912 the declar-
alton Of war against England
was carried in the United States
senate by one vote. General
Jackson was nominated as a
major general and confirmed by
one vote, January 8, 1915, he
commanded the army at the bat.

away up in Rhode Island got fast
in a plank fence.

The Statehood Question

In case the Joint statehood bill
passes the Senate, the Las Vegas
Optic makes the following sug-
gestion: When the time comes for
the people of New Mexico to vote
on a joint statehood constitution.
let a seperate statehood constitu-
ton also be prepared. Then let the
ballot decide whether the people
want joint statehood, separate
statehood or no statehood. Should
the people of the two territories
vote overwhelmingly to adopt a
separate statehood constitution
and should they go before the
United States congress with that
constitution, there seems to be
much reason to suppose that the
application for justice would not
be rejected.
