NEW MEXICO POLITICS.

NEW MEXICO POLITICS.
 A recent issue of the Santa Fe New Mexican contains a letter from She- ih Bsca of SOcorro county. New Mex. ico. and thirty others to the chairman of the Republican territorial commit tee announcing that they have be come convinced that the policies of the Republican party are the best for the country and New Mexico. and stating that in future they desire to become members of the Republican party and act with it. In the list of thirty names there is not one Ameri- can name to be found. These MeXi- cans, it is declared by the New Mex ican. are of men who have been the leaders of the Democratic party in Cocorro county for years. In addi- ton to stating their abandonment of the Democratic party, these men an -nounce that they are opposed to joint statehood for their territory and Ari- zona.
 In consideration of the fact that 1he Republican party is the one which is responsible for the threat of joint statehood. and the fact that these New Mexico foppers mention no other DO lticaI principle to which they hold in their letter to the Republican Sanhe- drin Of New Mexico, the cause of the political revolution in Socorro coun- ty remains a mystery.
 However. it is sufficient to show the political unreliability of our sister territory. There it is known that the great majority of voters are ever on f6R-Oli-sHsU -he. winning side and no matter what the issuC are rd;edy to line up on the side which has the best chance to control the county and territorial government Ten years age practically all the MeXicans in New Mexico were voting the Democratic ticket; that they are not doing SC now is because they have>been bought like sheep by the Republicans.
 The present status of the Repub lican party certainly has nothing tc attract any one from any other politi cal party It is today upholding and supporting more corruption and graft than was ever before known in this country While the trusts of the country are piIlaging the consumers of tbe country. the Republican Con gress refuses to even consider the sure remedy Of a reduction in the robber tariff, and the president in the longest message ever read in Congress never mentioned this important sub 5ect.
 The great frauds by which tho country has been robbed of its pub lie lands and timber, it has beer shown that the Republican leaders were filling their pockets with tho spells
 In the insurance rascality lately brought to light it was shown that Republicans were mostly the bene ficiaries from contributions of money belonging to the policy holders fol the election of Roosevelt, to the enor nous lobby funds used on Republi cans in the New York and other legis latures. -sasis
 It has been proven during the las year that several Senators of the United States who hold their posi- tions at the hands of the Republican party are it subjects for goyernmen prisons. -lg9E
 It is c known fact that millions O of the peoples money have alread! been stolen in connection with tn, Panama canal enterprise; this none, has been taken by a commission ap pointed by the president and SO sat isfactOry has been the stealing tha a bill has now been introduced to dt away with the commission and plact the canal entirely in the hands O the president. As the president hai had full control so far, it is not likell that conditions will be improved il the future
 The action of the New Mexico Mex jeans in going over to the Republican Terty cannot be accounted for on any ether theory than that they are head ing for the party which they believe will poll the most votes at the com ing election.
