Sick Headache.

For several years my wife was
troubled with what physicians called
sick headache of a very severe char
acter. She doctored with several en-
inent. physicians and at a great ex'
pense, only to grow worse until she
was unable to do any kind of work.
About a ye,!r ago she began taking

thinks for himself, and freely and

thinks for himself, and freely and
strongly expresses his best thought.
He has served six years in con
gress. A funny story circulated by
the Republican press during his first
rae for congress, to the effect that
"he did not wear socks" gave him at
once a national reputation. He was
elected, but to the surprise of the
people of the country who were ex-
pecting a clown in congress, there
came a mar who soon made his in
1uence felt as a leader. In debate
he proved himself the peer of any
representative, and even the great
Tom Reed many a time hesitated in
the flying repartee of debate to join
issue with the Kansas statesman.
Five times Simpson was nominated
by a Democratic convention. and
three times he was elected in a dis
trict which is normally 5000 Repub-
lican. He is a brilliant campaigner.
During the special session Of con-
gress called by Mckinley. Simpson
was for a time the virtual Democratic
floor leader. After serving in congress
six years he left it poorer financially
than when he was elected. Poor in
purse, but rich in honor, he then
came to the Pecos Valley with un.
bounded faith in the future Of New
Mexico and this fertile Valley, and
here he has been and is now engaged
in the real estate n live stock bu
siness. The people who know him
best like him best. AS sailor, soldier
farmer, congressman. real estate
dealer, Jerry Simpson has made
friends and kept them. He is as
loyal to his friends as he is to hi:
principles, and above all no man ha:
ever challenged his integrity of char
acter. Greater praise than this cal
be given to no man. So his is tn
, manner of man, concerning whom thu
Optic asks. "Who is He?"

BALLARD FOR COUNCILMAN.

C. L. Ballard deserves to succeed
in his effort for the nomination Of
Councilman from this district. His
past service to the party in this coun-
ty gives him a just right to ask for
this recognition at the hands of his
party. He is we'll fitted for the place,
and if elected will be able to do good
work for his constituency. Chaves
county deserves this place that it is
asking for Mr.. Ballard. Two years ago
one of her citizens in a most treach,
erous name was cheated out of
this place, and Chaves county was
robbed of a seat in the higher house
of the legislature. In electing Mr..
Ballard this year an able Democrat
will be rewarded. and the wrong done
Chaves county two years ago will
in a manner be righted.

Each visitor to the st. Louis fair
who returns home, asks for more
Roswell exhibits to be sent to the
fair. What we have on exhibit is
good enough, but there should be a
larger and more comprehensive ex-
hibit of our resources. While the
fair will last three months longer in
all probability twice the number of
people will visit the fair in these
three months that have visited it
since the opening day. 1t is not too
late by any means to get a larger
and better Valley exhibit down to St
Louis. The school committee is now
preparing folders for distribution al
the fair illustrating our public build
ings and school advantages. Every
cent spent in adding Il our exhibit
will be returned to us in dollars.

WHO HE IS.

Who is Jerry Simpson, the man
who wants the Democrats TO nominate
him for congress from New Mexico?
Las Vegas Optic.
He is the man whom the Democrats
of the Pecos Valley want the Las
Vegas convention to nominate for
congress from New Mexico. They
want him nominated because as a
friend and neighbor they know him
and like him. They honor him for
his integrity of character, and appre-
ciate his ability. He is a man now
in his 63rd year not unlike many 9TH
err men, inasmuch as he is honest in
his dealings, energetic in working for
the upbuilding of his town, social in
his nature. a man whom as the days
come and go you like to talk with
and talk to. Yes. in many ways he
is just an ordinary, common place
man. with no frills or afectation. He
is not a scholar in the school sense
of the term. he is even a very ordi-
nary sDeller and does not pronounce
all his words according to the last
edition Of Webster. but he is a stu
dent and a thinker. He is q close
observer, an omnivorous reader. a To-
gical thinker. His broad experience
is his alma mater. He Is not a man
with . hobby. and he has no pet the
cries. but he Is 8 man OF IDEAS. He

WELL DONE.

Chaves county Democrats general
ly do the right thing at the right
time. Their action Of Saturday was
no exception to the rule. The unani-
mou endorsement of Jerry Simpson
for congress and C. L. Ballard for
council was both timely and wise.
In the harmony of action and in the
heartiness and unanimity with which
the endorsements were made there
was that esprit de corps which wins
battles. So long as the Chaves coun-
ty Democracy does it's work so well
as it did Saturday it will remain a
formidable organization and a discou:
aging factor to all opposition. THE
RECORD believes that both Mr..
Simpson and Mr.. Ballard can be NOM
mated and elected. But if one or
both should fail. the Democrats of
Chaves county will have the satisfac.
ton of knowing that they gave to
each their loyal and hearty support,
and did all in their power to win for
them the coveted prize.

LAWLOR-CHIPMAN
DECISION RESERVED

All the recompense Mary Lawlor
ever received from Mrs Mary A. Chip
man for ner twenty-three years SER
vice was silver spoon, so she testi-
lied yesterday afternoon at the hearing
on her claim for $1,000 against Mrs
Chipman's estate. Miss Lawlor said
she always collected Mrs Chipman's
rents, which at one time took ner to
all parts of the city.
And she never gave you anything
in the shape of recompense?" asked At
torney Root, representing the estate.
Only silver spoon, and she tainted
then, twas the answer.
did she faint because she gave you
the spoon?" asked Mr. Root
Il don't know why she tainted, but
it happened in the garden and l had
to take her into the house." said Miss
Lawlor
She then went on to say that al
through her associations with Mrs
Chapman the latter frequently told her
she would pay her some day, provide
for her old age She would say, why,
Mary, you must be paid, and / will see
that you are well paid in my WILL
Mrs Chapman was well aware that
Miss Lawlor was in broken health, yet
according to her testimony, Miss Law
Tor never asked her for a cent. She
was content to wait. she said, and rest
on Mrs Chipman's words and promises.
Mrs Chapman told many people that
she would one day reeompense her Tor
her services, and friends told Mrs
Chapman also that her services as
masseur were worth 81 and 50 an hour,
the regular charge for such work.
About a year before her death Mrs
Chapman told Miss Lawlor that her
friends and relatives did nothing for
her. except that one of them one day
gave her a cup of tea and soon after
she was confronted with a bills for
services rendered"
Mrs Mary A. Farnham, whose bill
for $200is undisputed, called frequent
ly to the house, but until after the
death of Frank. Way, whose death
greatly disturbed Mrs Chapman, none
of her friends or relatives called to see
her.
Decision on the claim was reserved

Joyed until a late hour. Lalliers or

of the dancing were the moonlight
waltz and the mixed cotilion. In the
latter serpentine favors were in evil
dence. These dances We're very pleas
ing to the lovers Of the light fantastic
step and We're encored several times.

BOARD OF SAFETY
TALKS FIRE BOXES

The meeting held by the board OF
public safety yesterday afternoon was
very brief and only routine business
was transacted. The committee APP
pointed. some weeks ago to inquire
into the recommendation by the board
of education that fire alarm boxes be
placed in the immediate vicinity of
school buildings. where there are none,
reported at some length The distance
of the nearest fire alarm box from each
school was mentioned in the report,
and only one change and one new box
were recommended. The new box
will be placed on Aetna street near
the Webster school and the box now
outside the old engine house on Bank
street will be removed to the junction
of Green and North Leonard streets.
A copy of certain resolutions passed
at the recent convention of the Y. p.
S. G. E., condemning Sunday base ball
playing in the Driving park, and assur-
ing the authorities of the support and
encouragement of the society was re-
ceived and placed on. file. These reso-
lutiOnS have already been published.

likely to become popular. 1t is an

ter
Mayor Elton, who presided, suggest
ed. in the course Of a discussion rela-
tive to the fire alarm boxes and school
buildings, that it would, perhaps, be
a good idea for the board of education
to recommend that certain teachers be
selected in each school to send in the
alarm of fire if ever such an occasion
arises AS it was merely suggestion
no action was takea

tive session.
