THE ooLoREp MAN.


Some folks say the colored man
is not to be depended upon, that he
will promise you one thing then
turn and do something entirely
contrary.
This is true of many colored men
we know, but not of all. There is
different makes of colored men just
as there are different makes of
white men. What are we going to
do with that great law of heredity-
that is spoken of so much today,
when we assert that the colored
man cannot be trusted. Go back
to your youthful days-call to mind
the good old colored men in whose
ca e the white husband and father
left his wife and children. And did
these men ever fail in their watch.
ful carer Neverl Neverl The life
and honor of these women and
children were sacredily protected.
And now do you believe that the
sons and grandsons of these men
would fail to keep promise to a
woman. l do not believe it-blood
will tell, and good blood surely is
as strong as bad blood. The women
OF old Red River asked help of the
colored man and the out com is a
dry county; and / do believe the
good colored men of Marion would
help us, if we could only put them
to the test. Some weeks ago l was
setting in buggy near DR.. Clop-
toms office waiting for friend
my thoughts we're a hundred miles
away from the spot where I sat
when heard n mans voice say:
DO you think man who votes
the anti ticket fit to hold Office in
the church," looked up and saw
two colored men standing some
piece away from the sidewalk, one
OF them earnestly talking prohibit
ton. could only catch a word
now and then, for the man did not
talk to attract attention; but what
l did hear was good, very good.
And l was glad to know that one
colored man was talking prohibi.
ton. 1t is the drink that has ruined
so many colored men--the drink
that has brought on disease and
then death, before manhood's
prime was reached by many
youths. 1t is the drink-the &C.
cursed drink that has caused all
the soul.piercing, nerve racking
horrors that have occurred in the
last ten and fifteen years. The
proof? Such things were never
heard of, in the times when men
could not drown their manhood in
a bottle of bad whiskey. Keep on
talking good colored men, God
will bless your influence, keep on
for the sake of your own youths
and ours too And if we eyer have
another trial at the ballot box,
come out in mass and help us.
We need your help. Will you fail
us?

"a great many of the country
merchants put up q great talk
about the mail order houses in the
cities which are getting their trade
away from them, but with all this
outcry they are doing nothing to
prevent it," says the Morton
(Minu Enterprise. "You can't
prevent people buying where they
can buy the cheapest simply by
use of invectives. The only way
country merchants can expect to
compete with mail order houses is
by meeting them on their ground

lutely no hope for the village mer.
chant until he corrects few of his
time-worn views about advertising.
Advertising is simply telling what
you have to sell and the price.
The argument that you have been
in business long time and the
know does not suffice. The people
care very little about you person
ally, but is your goods and the
price at which you sell them. -

ed full time but several came in
at the last to take the examina-
tiOn. Twenty-three in all took

The Journal Quits Business.

The Alamogordo Weekly Journal
discontinued with its Issue Of Aug
ust 18, The Journals life in Ala
mogordo was about two years. It
was radically Democratic in politics
and, we think, too aggressive in
pursuing its course. According to
our opinion Editor Wharton will be
a more appreciative writer when
he learns to, be more conservative
and tones down a bit. With all the
Journals faults it was ever bright as
a local paper. 1t took occasion to
dig" the News on several occasions
which we thought was uncalIed for,
consequently the same was passed
up without notice, believing that our
readers care more for legitimate
news than for what the world calls
"squabbles betweencountry editors. "
The Journal plant has been sold to
Silas May, a stannch Republican.
and the outfit is to be moved to
Tucumcari, New Mexico, where the
Tucumcari News issto be establish
ed and run in the interest Of the
Republican party. Mr.. Wharton
disposed Of his interest in the Jour-
nal plant for business reasons, and
will likely be retained by Mr.. May
on the Tncumcari News. The new
paper IS to appear on October 7th.

1t is said that an Indian never
forgets slight nor forgiyes an
injury. He will wait q lifetime
to get even. This characteristic
is not confined to Indians. There
are plenty of others who pride
themselves upon the fact that
they never forget a kindness OF
forgive an injury. Indeed, is
not this the standard by which
most persons regulate their liv-
ing? And while remembering
kindnesses shown is commend
able it is an indication of pitiable
character weakness to harbor re-
sentiment for real or fancied in
juries. There can be no worse
hell here or hereafter than that
which the individual makes for
himself who harbOrs a feeling of
hatred or resentment. Someone
has said: ''The man who con-
siders himself a Nemesis, who
treasures up a wrong, who nur-
ses an injury, who lets ignoble
hatreds tester in his heart, can
not be happy man. His soul
is like a crouched tiger ready to
spring upon the victim of his
wrath. If it is easier to put on
record in the memory personal
grievances and to hug an ugly
feeling, it is because we have
chosen to do so. If we hoard up
in the mind the unhappy cpl
sOdes of life it is because we
have formed the habit of doing
so. !" We should learn to forget.
If we cannot forget at first, the
habit should be cultivated. We
can forgive, if not forget. And
through the act Of forgiving we
can become capable of forgetting.
Learn to forget! Life is too
short and human happiness so
difficult Of attainment that none
can afford to detract from their
own or another's happiness
through harboring resentment OF
hatred. Learn to forget!-Se-
lected.

WANTED FOR MURDER


Jail Here on Charge Of Robbery,
July II, 1905, at Livingston,
Arizona, Sam Plunkett and Ed.
Kennedy were murdered and
robbed of their money and val
uables. Two Mexicans who had
been at work there left the coun-
try just after the double murder
and Arizona authorities have
been securing the country in
search of the murderers, looking
for the two Mexicans who left.
Descriptions of the Mexicans
were sent broad cast over the
land and Mexicans have been ar
rested all over Arizona, New
Mexico, Texas and even up in
Tennessee and in many instances
held for Identification only to be
turned loose. Some weeks ago
special officer H. G. Haynes had
the two Mexicans who are held
in county Jail here on charge of
rObbing Mitchell's store on July
16 to stand up and have their
photographs taken and these
were sent to the authorities at
Livingston, Arizona. In answer
to the photographs Mr.. Frank
Adams was sent to this place
from Livingston to see the Mexi-
cans and identify them. Mr..
Adams is satisfied that the men
here in Jail are the men who
committed the crimes on July
18th, as before stated. Even
the hats worn by the Mexicans
answer to the description and
these hats are splotched with
blood. This again tallies with
circumstances surrounding the
murder, as the murderers left
their clothing on the spot where
the foul deed was done, taking
only their shoes and hats away.
While the officers were examin-
ing one of the hats in an adjOin-
ing room in the Jail the other
fellow got busy and washed his
hat, scrubbing it manfnlly, but
couldn't obliterate the stains of
blood on it. Their story as to
their whereabouts since July 12,
the night of the murder, is
crooked one, and in telling how
and why they came here from
Arizona they contradict them
selves in all sorts of ways. In
fact, the point they seem to COW
er in telling about their move
ments is to keep clear of Arizona
on the 18th of last July. They
recognized Mr.. Adams when he
entered the Jail here which is
another point towards clinching
the Mexicans as the murderers
of the two Arizona men.
Sam Plunkett, was a ranch
man, and Ed. Kennedy was an
old man and worked ON Plum
kett's ranch. They were muir
dered at the same time and place.
The murderes approached the
home Of Plunkett by taking off
their shoes, thus proving why
these fellows here kept only
their shoes and hats. After the
murder they went back to where
they left their shoes, and here
they changed clothing and made
their escape into the nearby
mountains. One is a large fell
low and resembles . Spaniard,
and the other is q small man
with dark skin. One gives his
name as Manuel Arvizu, and the
other gives his name as Domingo
Chaves.
Mr.. Adams states that in case
these fellows are taken back To-
