No Principle at Stake.

There is no principle at stake in a
delegate Observation-Disclosures Jour
nal.
The Journal is Andrews mouth or
gan and reflects the sentiment of its
chief. Think of it, you Independent,
unprejudiced voter. A man who is a
candidate for delegate to congress
proclaiming through his official organ
that there is no principle at stake
in a delegate convention" In other
words, principle counts for naught
in a delegate convention. You can
buy and sell votes, debauch delegates
play traitor to friends in a delegate
convention and it is all right for no
principle is involved. When you lis
ten TO this man talk Saturday, when
you go to the polls on the 9Th to cast
your vote, think of the platform on
which this pupil of Quay is running.
Was there ever such braZen, open
faced disregard of honor and truth.
This insult of itself to the people OF
New Mexico should defeat Bull" An
drews by 10000 majority. Remember
the platform on which he is rum
ming:
There is no principle at stake in
a delegate election"

THE ACkERMAN SCANDAL.

ing contingent arrives in Portalas
"our governor" and 'our senator
will have even more explaining to do
there than they will have here.
c. o. Leach and W. E. Lindsey
were the duly elected delegates from
Roosevelt county to the Albuquerque
convention. Believing that there
would be no opposition to the re-nom-
ination of Delegate Rodey, they
thought it useless to make the ev-
pensive trip to Albuquerque. Late
Friday night before the convention
Monday Rodey began to sniff danger
and wired Lindsey and Leach to come
at once or send their proxies. rs
the proxies had to be cast by a Roose-
welt a these gentlemen at once
sent their proxies to J. NJ. Alderman
a cement worker from Portales who
was at work in albuquerque at that
time. The proxies were sent to Ack-
with instructions from Leach
and Lindsey to vote them for Rodey,
and Rodey was so notified.
Just before the convention was call

ROSWELL WILL HELP.

The people of Carlsbad and Eddy
county will make an effort to have
the government assist them in the
irrigation of the lower Pecos Valley.
The effort is a timely and laudab1e
one. The government can find no
better investment for a portion of irs
irrigation fund or where the invest
ment will bring greater returns for
the public good.
Carlsbad and Eddy county may
rest assured that whatever aid and
help the people of Roswell and Cha
e county can give them in this e
deavor will be given with all the en-
thusiasm and he%artiness that our peo-
pie always give to every forward
movement for the success and pros
perity of this section of the Territory.
Here is hoping that the movement
already commenced may soon
a successful contamination.

him up to the now famous Cor MIA

where Otero and Andrews were doing
the preliminary work to defeat he

Alderman remained in the room
only a few minutes. When he came
out of the room he had left a prom

would disregard their binding instruc

detail the methods that were used
in that little room to induce" Ack-
few minutes to break confidence with
his friends at home, betray his home
county, and commit political reason.
This is the explanation that is wan
ted. Something must have been Of
fered to Alderman for the sale of his
honor. And are the men who purch-
ase a mans vote any better than the
men who sell it? Was Alderman Of

was it cash in hand? No mar is go

simply for the purpose of running his

county particularly are anxious to be
informed in regard to this matter.

at each stop as our exchanges show.

Chief of Police Fred McClond yes
terday received the following commu-
nication, signed by James A. Bailey,
manager of the Barnum G Bailey
shows:
Certain malicious parties are circu-
lating evil, false reports regarding
change of date, non-appearance, strikes
and rumored contagious diseases in
connection with the Barnum & Bailey
shows. There parties usually circu-
late these absolutely false statements
a few days previous to or on the day
of exhibition. A reward of $500 will
be paid for the arrest and conviction
of any such party or parties together
with all expenses of prosecution. Kind
ly instruct your officers to watch and
arrest them. | would also suggest that
you notify newspapers and telephone
officers to put you in communication
with such parties in case any such par
ties should make use of these agen-
cies. | would also refer you to the
superintendents of police and boards
of health in towns we have visited and
| hereby add copy Of letter received
in Pittsburg where we are now exhibit
ing covering the health and sanitary
condition of the show:
Department OF Public Safety Bu-
reau of Health, Pittsburg, May 18th,
1904. To whom 1t may concern:
This is to certify that have this
day made a careful inspection of the
employees of the Barnum & Bailey
circus and a careful inspection of the
sanitary condition and find everything
in first class condition and in no may a
menace to the public health.
Signed, BRADFORD A. BOOTH,
Medical Inspector, department of Pub
lio Safety
W. d. COXey, one of the agents of the
big show, who was in the city last
night. when questioned about the mat
ter. said:
There seems to be a conspiracy on
the part of persons unknown to in
jure the business and reputation of the
Barnum Il Bailey show by spreading
false reports of strikes among it's en-
ployes, changes of route, the presence
Of contagious diseases and other in
furious declarations. The plan of
these parties is to send a man into |
town few hours ahead Of the show. |
This man insidiously spreads the re-
port that, owing to strikes or quaran-
tines, the show will be unable to ex-
hibit. Frequently he imposes upon |
the newspapers, and succeeds in get
ting injurious announcements of this
nature printed. or course, all such
stories are pure inventions, as proved |
by Manager Baileys communication to
your chief of police. Mr. Bailey has,
however, determined to ferret out the |
incentive for these dastardly attacks

TRAIN DERA|LED
Probably For Purpose of
Robbery.

Danville, Va, May 1S.-A mail train
on the Danville G. Western division of
the Southern railway was derailed to-
day near Stuart, in Henry county, the
engine being tk:own from the tracks
by rocks which had been piled on the
rails at the point of a sharp curve.
None of the passengers were hurt
though all were badly shaken up and
bruised. The train was delayed sew
eral hours, The engineer. Charles
Galloway, of this city, was thrown
from the cab and had his leg broken.
The attempted outrage Is believed to
have been the work of desperadoes in
the mountains, bent on robbery.

JAPANESE
Getting Very Close to
Mukden.

st. Petersburg, May 1S.--An unof1-
cial report of the appearance Of Jap
anese force in the neighborhood Of
Mukden is much commented upon but
the military authorities profess that
there is no cause for anxiety. Assum-
ing the accuracy of the report 1t Is OBJ
viously to be inferred that the Jap
anese mean to try to bar General Ku-
ropatkins retreat northward while the
main army attacks Lao Yang and
AIukden.
Such plan, say the military COM
mentators, would have good prospects
of success If the japanese were in suf-
ficient in strength, but they are com
vinced that the enemy is not strong
enough and if the attempt to carry out
such a plan it will fail.

less a wise thing for Japan, for it
put the new grown nation in vast
ly stronger position to meet such
an emergency as the present war
with Russia.
When the war is over, when
the mikado feels that his nations
status is more firmly established,
it may we'll be he will grant larger
powers of self-government. That
he will give his country the
government that seems best
for its welfare, all things consid
cred, rather than the government
that's best forhis private purposes,
may almost be said to be assured.
Self-sacri6ce, the willing surrender
by the great and mighty of their
vested interests" for the good
of their coutry, has been one of
the most striking characteristics
of Japanese progress. The will
ing sacrahces of the old feudal
nobility have perhaps no equal
in history. What Japan may at
tain to if this most real patriotism,
endures it would be rash to at
temptto predict. - Record Herald.

The first Comic Opera

Ever in Dickinson-will be the famous
Columbian Comic Opera Company
who will present in Dickinson opera
house Wednesday evening, March 90
Alfred Golfers greatest production
Dorothy" and on Thursday evening,
March 81, Gilbert & Sullivan's famous
Japanese opera "The Mikado."
The company comes to US with the
best Endorsement; they number nineteen
people and have some we'll known opera
singers, among them Miss Mabel Day
the prima dona. The Denver Post of
Feb. 9TH says Miss Day sings like a
nightingale. In fact one musical lady
in the audience who had been TO sec and
hear Patti observed that Miss Day sings
"The Last Rose of Summer" with more
sweetness, sentiment and artistic grace
than did Patti last Thursday night. This
was a compliment, and it wasn't an
unintelligent one.
