THE SITUATION AS 1T is.

"Since it appears suicidal for the
Republicans to re-nominate Delegate
Andrews, and since Bursum is impos-
sible on account of his connection
with the old gang now under investi-
CATION, there is said to be a POSSIBLE
ity that the Republican leader of the
Pecos Valley, E. A. Cahoon, may re-
ceive the nomination for Delegate to
| Congress. This would be in line with
the promise to give the Territory a
business administration and a new
Zeal all the way round. However, the
nomination of Andrews probably
would give the Democrats a better
show to win.-Roswell Record.
9Th above from the Roswell Rec
ord, the only daily Democratic paper
in the Territory, is so amusing that
the New Mexican calls attention to
it. the ignorance of the situation
displayed in the editorial is amazing.
1t may be presumed that there are
people in the Pecos Valley who have
read this n believe there is some
thing to it. In order to ~undeceive
them and give them the situation as
it is, the New Mexican will state it.
"E. A. Cahoon, of Roswell, is very
popular and mas all the qualifications
to make a good representative in Con
gress. However, he has absolutely no
ambition in that line and this is well
understood. Chairman H.. O.. Bursum,
of Socorro, is in the same boat. On
the other hand the prevailing senti-
ment in the party is for the re-nomi-
nation of Delegate Andrews, and the
prevailing sentiment of the people is

THE KIND OF ENTERPRISE
THE PEcos VALLEY NEEDS

The new beet sugar factory at
Phoenix, Arizona, mas opened for bus
mess. A recent issue of the Phoenix
Gazette said:
Tomorrow will mark the weie hing
of the first sack of sugar extracted
from beets grown in the valley, in a
factory located in the valley and oper-
ated by valley labor The placing of
this first sack of valley sugar on the
market, marks the beginning of an
industry that cannot help u be of
inestimable value to the community in
more ways than one.
I'm the first place, it will place an
enhanced value on the farming lands
by increasing their productiveness in
adding more profitable crop. Sec
ondly, it will offer an increased field
of labor for the unemployed, both
skilled and unskilled. Third, it will,
when the industry is more fully de-
velQped, add thousands of dollars di-
rectly to the wealth of the
ity and so on indefinitely.
mot the least of the advantages
that will accrue will be the advertis-
ing it will mean to the valley. 1t will
be another notice to the world in a
practical way that this is not the arid,
unproductive region thai uniformed
writer's delight in %picturing, but in
stead, is one of natures most favor

The 18th Representative district of

ties of Chaves. Eddy, Lincoln and
Roosevelt, that is to say these four
counties have n member. We und-
erstand that Eddy county has a can
didate, and also Lincoln in the per-
son of Mr.. Mullins. With Mr.. SCOTS
nomination for the Council. the nom
nation for the House will be left

That he has great influence and ma

The New Mexican probably has in
side information as to Mr.. Andrews
Intentions. But the Record cannot
resist the temptation to remind the
New Mexican that about a year ago
the Record asserted that H. J. Hag-
erman would be appointed governor
of New Mexico,-and the New Mexi-
car was then as much amused" at
our ignorance of the situation as ii
is now, and asserted that any person
with a grain of sense knew that one
Miguel A. Otero would be re-appoint
ed. Possibly Mr.. Andrews influence
with New Mexico voters may o be
SC strong as it is with the authorities
at Washington.

1t seems to the general opin-
ion among Democrats that K. K.
Scott is the man for the Legislative
Council. The 9th Council district COW
ers all Southern New Mexico, and is
commonly called the "Shoestring' dis
trict. 1t comprises the counties of
Chaves, Eddy, Roosevelt, Lincoln,
Otero, Dona Ana, Luna and Grant.
The four latter counties also nave a
councilman in addition to their int
crest in ours, which is the Sth district
and has for that reason most always
conceded the Pecos Valleys right to
name the member of h 9th. Since
no other county mas announced a
candidate, the Democrats here have
decided to push Mr.. Scott. He is a
very suitable man for the position, be-
ing a resident of the Valley for three
years and of the Territory for ten,
and has quite an extensive acquaint-
ance over the Territory and many
friends among the Democrats in the
other counties of the district. He is
very popular among his home people,
who would like to see Mr.. Scott get
the nomination, and who predict for
him a successful and popular term
as a legislator.

According to the vote two years
ago, Chaves had almost as many De
mocratic votes polled as three
other counties of the district combin-

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP.
No Medicine so Beneficial to Brain
and Nerves.

Lying awake nights makes it hard
to keep awake and do things in day
time. To take '.tonicsf and stimu.
lants" under such circumstances is
like setting the house on fire to see
If you can put it out.
The right kind of food promotes re-
freshing sleep at night and a wide
awake individual during the day.
A lady changed from her old way Of
eating, to Grape-Nuts, and says:
For about three years had been
a great sufferer from Indigestion.
After trying several kinds of medi-
cine, the doctor would ask me to drop
of potatoes, then meat, and SO on,
but in a few days that craving. gnaw-
ing feeling would start up, and
would vomit everything 1 ate and
drank.
when 1 started on Grape-Nuts,
vomiting stopped, and the bloating
feeling which was SO distressing dis.
appeared entirely.
my mother was very much both.
cred with diarrhea before commenc.
ing the Grape-Nuts, because her stom.
ach was so weak she could not digest
her food. Since using Grape-Nuts she
is well. and says she don't think she
could live without it.
''It is great brain restorer and
nerve builder, for l can sleep as sound
and undisturbed after supper OF
Grape-Nuts as in the old days when

brain as a good nights sleep, such as
you can enjoy after eating Grape

ERRORS ABOUT THE WHITE
HOUSE.

To the Editor:
l noticed somewhere recently
would not say positively that II was in
your columns-an article on the White
House which contained several mis-
statements.
In the first place 1t was stated the
White House was first occupied in
1909 and that its first occupant was
President Madison. The fact Is, its
first occupant was President Adams,
who took up his residence there in
1900.
The original mansion was begun in
1892. In 1914 It was burned by the
British and rebuilt in 1918.
Another of the errors in the article
referred to was the statement that
ready-prepared paint is used on the
White House to make it beautifully
white.
noticed this especially because
have used considerable paint myself
and wondered that canned" paint
should be used on such an important
building when all painters know that
pure white lead and linseed oil make
the best paint.
1t SO happened also that I knew
white lead and linseed oil-not ready
mixed paint-were used on the White
House, because 1 had Just read q book
let published by firm Of ready-mixed
paint manufacturers who also manu-
facture pure white lead. In that book
the manufacturers admitted that for
the White House nothing but 'the
best and purest of paint could be
used" and said that their pure white
lead had been selected.
Above all people, those who attempt
to write on historical subjects should
give us facts. even II 1t is only date
or statement about wood, OF brick,
or paint. or other building material.
Yours for truth,
