anybody else on vague assurances that
he is all right"
Judge Parker is getting challenges of
this sort from stalwart democratic pa
pers all over the country. He must
speak out and tell how he stands on the
big issues. Hills sponsorship for him
has excited distrust among many Of
the so-called conservative democrats.
while Cleveland's endorsement of him
is bringing down on his head the OPP
position of an element of the party
whose support he must get if he is to
make as strong a run as Bryan made
in 1900. should he be nominated. This
situation will raise up efnbarrassments
for the judge that he probably did not
expect. His position will not much
longer enable him to dodge a square
expression of opinion on the leading
questions of the time.
Mr.. Bryan in his speech of Satur-
day night voiced the demand of the
regular democracy to know where Mr..
Parker was at and charged that in the
absence of any other direct knowledge
that he was at least behind the plat
form prepared by the New York dem
ocrats who are instructed to carry his
name before the national convention.
Bryan then arraigns the New York
platform and the whip bites into Cam
didate Parker as we'll He asserts that
the trust question is an issue. but there
is nothing in Candidate Parker's plat
form that gives encouragement to the
opponents Of the trusts that imper-
ialism is an issue yet there is no plank
in the platform that defines the demo-
cratic position; that the labor question
is an issue yet the platform fails to en-
dorse the arbitration planks of the Chi
cago platform and makes no new
plank; that the money question is ig-
nOred entirely and the platform ignores
the income tax and fails to endorse the
election Of senators by direct vote.
In short Mr.. Bryan says. THE New
York platform Is a dishonest platform.
At only. for a dishonest party. and no
one but an artful dodger would stand
upon it." Yet the New York platform
is the only political utterance that can
be said to have emanated from Parker
for, It was dominated by his friends
and presumably with his consent.

HILL AND MCCLELLAN

The unexpected turn which political
affairs have taken in New York has.
for the present at least. put a decided
damper upon the hopes and ambitions
OF Mayor Mcclellan and Tammany
leader Murphy. That Mayor McClel-
Ian had gubernatorial aspirations, was
known long ago and he seemed in fair
way of reaching his goal by using the
mayoralty as a convenient and useful
stepping stone.
Leader Murphy had even higher
aims. He did not consider it by any
means impossible or even improbable,
to place Mcclellan in the field as
candidate for the presidential nominal
ton on the democratic ticket, by
throwing the full weight of the Tam
many organization in the scale when
the time should come to weight Nc
Clellan's drawing capacity.
The beautiful phantasmagorie of Nc
Clellan's presidential nomination vSn-
ished quite early in the season. when
the Parker sun rose above the horizon.
But, there was still the hope left, to
secure for the Tammany mayor the
gubernatorial nomination on the demo-
cratic ticket Of New York. Mcclellan
had undoubtedly a good chance. in fact
the gest chance among all the candi-
dates hitherto mentioned. to get the
nomination and would have had no
trouble in aec,Hing it. had Murphy been
les stubborn and had he shown more
diplomacy after his first defeat by the
Hin Aorcea. 4*
It h stased on pretty eood authority
shat Hin was perfectly willing to COM
promise things. BY Supporting McClel-
Ian for the governorship. but Murphy
Eemalned unyielding and continued his
opposition. Now. 1t is said. Hill has
decided to place District Attorney
Jerome in the field for the gubernator-
,ial nomination. As Jerome has many
, friends in New York and all over the
state and Is considered an exceptionally
strsag man. it would not be surpris-
ing, should he get the nomination.
There is but one possible obstacle tt
this plan. the possible refusal Of Mr.
Jerome. to run for governor. He hal
repeatedly expressed himself agains
the plan of making him a candidate
for governor and IL he should adhere I.
1 this decision. Hills plan may. after all
come to naught. That would seems tn,
only chance left for Mcclellan to &c
the gubernatorial nomination.

Great interest is being manifested in
the Territorial Fair Irrigation Congress
to be held in Albuquerque during Fair
week, October 1915. Among the
speakers who are to be present at that
time are Mr. George II. Maxwell,
Chairman of the National Irrigation
Association of America, and Professor
Elwood Mead of the Department of
Agriculture. These gentlemen are to
give lectures which will be illustrated
by means Of stereopticon views and
will lay particular stress on irrigation
by pumping from the underflow. Prof
Mead has already given his personal
supervision to a series of experiments
now under way at the Las Cruces ex-
perimental station, which appears sue.

other speakers and the subject will be
thrashed out from all sides, so that at
the close of the discussion those at
tending will know a great deal more
about the possibilities for improved ir-
ripation than they do now. :

Territorial Fair

The Territorial Fair Association has
appointed Col. ID. X. b. Sellers enl oy
extraordinary 10 the Navajo Indians
and it is expected that Colonel Sellers
will leave in a day or two Tor the reser.
walton, where he will make arrange
ments for the biggest bunch OF wild and
woody Indians that have ever been off
their native desert. Word has been re-
ceived from Sheriff Jim Elmer of Farm
ington, near the reservation, that a
large number of Indians appear willing
to make this long trip to Albuquerque
to see the sights of the great fair, to
held October l0-l5 inclusive, and he al.
so advises that they can be induced to
give the celebrated sacred fire dance at
that time. This dance has been seen
by only few white men as it ranks
far ahead of the Moqui snake dance as
a TRIBAL religious function. The modus
operandi of the dance is as follows:
A mammoth fire built of pinon limbs is
first started. and when the flames have
reached the height of forty or more
feet and the heat is like a white-hot
furnace, the dance proper begins. The
Indians are stripped, with the excep-
ton of animal skins around the lons,
and their bodies are painted white with
the native gypsum, found in the hills of
the reservation. With curious wands
in their hands they begin the dance to
the beating Of drums and the peculiar
whirring of native instrument which
sounds very much like the tin can on a
string of a small boy. The dance
usually lasts several hours but in tn ex-
hibition to be given each night at the
Fair only one or two of the movements
will be executed, The most astonish-
ing spectacle occurs about the middle
of the dance, when, igniting long strips
of cedar bark at the fire, they dance
around in close proximity to the flames
with those blazing brands hanging down
their backs, and this feature of the

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Owing to the fact that we have haC
several cases of typhoid fever in Dem,

that all residents of the community
take extra precautions against this
disease. See that all cesspools are
carefully disinfected with lime. All
tanks or barrels holding water for
drinking purposes cleansed thoroughly.
Since green vegetables tuncooked) can
easily convey this disease by carrying

dance is not completed until the brands
are burned away. 1t would naturally
be supposed that after having the flesh
in direct contact with this blazing bark,
severe burns would be the result, but
on examination only a few minutes
after the ordeal, no bad effects could
be noted.
The Navajos explain this by saying
that as the dance is to appease the
fury of the Good Spirit, who is anger
Cd on account of various misdeeds Of
the Indians during the year, special
protection is given them, providing
they enter the dance without fear ard
carry out the severe trials Of the dance
with fortitude and bravery. The Nava-
jos are in a specially good humor this
year on account the heavy rains and re-
sllting good crops, and so are willing
t. break all tribal precedents and give
this dance off the Reservation. A. This
in all probability, will never happen

derable time. trouble and expense to
q J one to come to Albuquerque during

Among these is a foot ball tournament
in which four of the leading education

The universal exposition at St. Louis
is the first great exposition to devote
one large building exclusively to the
interests of education. Directly be-
tween the manufactures building and
the cascades, and within a quarter
mile from the main entrance to the
| fair at the northeast corner of the
grounds, is located the education build.
ling. In this building are exhibits
covering a range of educational work
from kindergarten and primary grades
TO the most advanced phases of col
| legiate and university study. An in
terested one could easily spend more
time in this one building than that
given by the average person to the en-
| tire fair, in examining the many excel
| lent exhibits in the education build
ing alone. 1t comes as a revelation
TO the average person to observe the
advanced methods of instruction for
the young, for the old, for the deaf or
blind, in elemental studies, higher
courses. or mechanical, scientific or
commercial subjects. There the child
is taught to read and write, the scholar
10 delve. the mechanic to work, the
SeamStreSS TO sew, the accountant to
keep books, the stenographer to write
shorthand. There the publishers of
various school books and systems are
kept busy explaining the merits of
their productions, the universities
have their more dignified advertise
ments. and there the leaders of edu-
cational enterprise repair to get ana
give ideas. The teacher or student
cannot visit the educational Wall
street without receiving it's inspiration
and becoming improved by contact
with its advancement.
Visitors TO the fair are often sur
priSed TO find an actual school in lively
operation amid the quiet and dignified
| repose that prevades this building
Located in the extreme southwest cor
ner of the building is the Browns
Business college exhibit. made up of
students selected from the various col
leges under the management of G. w.
Brown, in Illinois, Iowa and Indiana.
This little school of about twenty
members, is taught by two of the best
teachers in the Brown company Visi-
tors may pass around the little in
closure in which the students work
and examine at any time the books OF
the boukkeepers, or receive Il fresh

chimes of the typewriters who work
there from 10 till 4. Fifteen times each
day drills are held to exhibit the speed
of the bookkeepers with figures. and
