ments Of this unique and sturdy peo-
pie. known as Mormons.
CHURCH A GOOD INSTITUTION.
The Mormon Church isa good insti-
tuition. It has taken the poor man
and made him rich, but never the re-
verse
Its members are, as a class, sober
Industrious, honest and virtuous. AS
citizens they are unsurpassed IN valor
and patriotism, ready to do and die
for what the flag represents.
What but strong conviction OF
right, a profound belief In divine aid,
could have induced this handful OF
people to face the horrors Of an un-
peopled Wilderness
This inspiring belief, this oneness OF
thought and tenacity Of purpose, en-
abled the Mormons to open up the
great west, to place a Mecca In the
wilderness where upwards of half n
million sturdy, honest citizens live
happily and sing their songs OF glad
ness, mid towering vines, waving
grasses, bending trees, singing birds,
babblIng brooks and majestic rivers.
All that concerns us nationally Is the
moral status, present and future, OF
any state in our Union.
SENATOR REED sMOOT.
cannot close without saying just a
word to those who are willing to be
set right, for there are many crooked
thoughts about the Hon. Reed Smoot.
That was an awful lie told by a
minister when Reed Smoot was first
attacked, that he. Mr.. Smoot. had
three wives. Senator Smoot and his
beautiful family have been held ur
to scorn and ridicule and for four
years they have suffered at the hands
of an I'M American clamoring crowd
with barely a voice to cry shame on
their defamers.
Men here and there. with brush and
pen originating vile stories, so that
they may be circulated throughout the
land, and many OF them are carried
under the banner of the cross.
The Constitution OF the United
States, and of every state. provides
for absolute freedom OF religious wor.
ship and perfect liberation Of religious
sentiment. We must battle for the
holding of this principle or none OF
us Is safe
Reed Smoot Is in the broadcast sense
an American citizen holding above all
things allegiance to the government.

Auto, but it Didn't.

The first devil-WagOn to appear in the
valley, arrived last week 1t is Pope Tri-
bune, Model V, about twenty horsepower
purchased bv Duncan McGilivary, On
Saturday evening he took the machine
from the depot, expecting to try it, but not
understanding all the mechanism, the
thing acted more like a baking broncho
However amusement was furnished for a
crowd of onIoO<erS, for little while until
dusk. when it was toWed into the Hughes
corral. On Monday aided by strong
team, the machine was safely housed in
the Nisbett barns, until after the snow
clears away. J. E. Pauley, who has bad
some experience with gasoline engines,
promises to set the thing going as soon as
the roads are fit, when the accident Insult
ance agents should do a splendid business.
The machineis a good make and no
doubt as soon as it is understood, will
give good service. In the very near future
we exr ect 70 hear the Honk-honk on our
streets, and Estancia will be as up-to-date
as any city in the territory.

More of the Beautiful.

The high winds of last week were fol-
lowed by snowstorm, which left. the
earth covered with a mantel of about
four inches of snow on Sunday evening.
On Monday night little more was ad-
ded, but on Tuesday morning, every
thing was again bright and clear, and the
snow disappeared rapidly. The storm
was quite general north, all Colorado be-
ing showed in, the fall being several feet
at several places. Instead of being de-
triment here in the valley, as it is in so
many other places the snow will be of
great benefit to our ranchers. This
brings the total precipitation of this
year to a little more than sixteen inches.
Pretty good for an arid country.

Let Contract for Y
Church Building.

At an adjourned meeting of the trustees
of the First Methodist Episcopal Church
of Estancia, on last Saturday night, bids
for the construction of the new edifice.
There were three bidders, Frank j. Dye
being the successful competitor. Mr.. Dye
came here some months ago from Las Veg
as, and is just completing the new Bank
Building at Willard. His successful and
satisfactory work on this had much to do
with securing the church contract for
him. His bid was So ,6S2.54.
The foundation of the building is already
in place, and the work has been held up
for some months on account of the trus'
tees not being able to secure satisfactory
title to the lots. This however has now
been remeded, title having been secured,
and handsome donation pledged from
the Church Extension Society Of the Meth
odist Church, with headquarters at Phila-
dephia. There remains about a thousand
dollars to raise to clear the building, besides
the seatings. pulpit and chancel. This
should not be difficult matter, when it
is remembered that there's not ProteS-
tant church building between Santa Fe,
Albuquerque, and Alamogordo, circle.
whose radius is more than seventy-five
miles. 1t is expected that Mr.. Dye will
push the work on the building, and that
ere long it cannot be said that in all the
great Estancia Valley there is not a sing le
church building.

Groom Meets Bride Here

On last Monday Ben Weller, who
holds position in the general store at
Corona, arrived in town and met Mrs.
Blanche Stowe of Las Vegas, who artor
visit to the probate clerk s office, were
SOON made man and wife by Justice of
the Peace Gregg, at the home of the off.
ciating judge. The couple left on the de
layed evening train for Coroua, where
they will make their home.
The groom was very anxious to carry
with him some sort of papers SHOWING
that he had really forsaken the ranks of
the bachelors, fearing that the Corona
ties, would doubt his statement of hay
ing brought back a bride, and one of the
numerous lonesome young men Of that
place would claim her as his own. He
left we'll prepared to prove his right to
the property"

INVESTIGATION
CONTINUES
Will be Probed to tae Bottom. Evidence Of
Fraud Being Secured.

The ir rvestigation of the election
fra uds goes merrily on, despite the New
Mexlcan's attempt to throw cold water
on the allegations. That paper would
like to see the affair dropped until the
meeting of a grand jury, presumably to
give the matter time to die down, and
the bosses time to silence the witnesses.
But the good people of Torrance county
believe in striking while the iron is hot,
and are going ahead saving wood with
out paying any attention to the advice of
ly "nothing tangible or substantial has
yet been advanced" to the outside world,
as this is not the time for such proceed.
ings This will all come up in regular
and due form.
In one precinct the fact has came to
light, and is we'll substantiated that cer-
tain voters were not allowed to cast
their ballots, unless the election boards
were allowed to prepare the ballots.
Wonder how those same members of the
election board would like to have some
one else prepare the ballots which they
should vote!
In connection with this matter, the
Albuquerque Journal has been sadly
msnformed to Judge from a especial,
dated at Santa Fe. Nov. Is, stating
that especial Attorney Brumback is
securing evidence on charge that Demo
cratic ballots were refused in Tajque
precincts at the election of November
9th" Mr. Brumback is not employed by
the Democrats to investigate these mat
ters but is representing the district at
torney, and in SO doing is not making it
a party affair. He is investigating any
and all alleged misdeeds, not only in Ia
jique precinct, but in any precinct where
such alleged mis-deeds are brought to
his notice. This is about as nearly cor
rect as were the "OfflciaIn minutes pre-
pared by Attorney Dodson Of Albuquer-
que, of the meeting of the commissioners
when the result Of the election was can
vassed The official minutes of the meet
ing will show just what occurred at the
meeting, and not what Mr.. Dobson de.
sired should have occurred.

COMING IN
\ LARGE PARTIES
Homeseekers Well Pleased With the Estancia
Valley and Its Prorpects.

Our town was made lively by the arri-
val from Oklahoma of a bunch of home
seekers and home.takers, one day last
week. The bunch was headed by one F. M
White who was familarly known as
"High-Pockets" he being the tallest man
in the bunch: then there was J. E. Thorp
and by reason of his good nature and ab-
iect looks, was called "Brother"; Mr..
WoolSey from Kildare received the prize
name "Batte-Ax" on account of having
so much voice for so smalla price; but to
make long story readably short, we will
say the croud consisted of Or. c. L.
Lease, DR.. w. H. Mason, Joe Chambers
and c. Lafe Huber, professional men;
Miss Cora Karsner professional Nurse;
Mrs. Laura A. Sulllns professional Lunch
fixer, and Miss Jo. Woodmancy and Miss
Vivian Browning professional lnnch eat
ers: Also Burt BaiIy an alIround good fel-
low and piano player; and Bob Walkup
in company with his long, lean Iank bro
ther "Vessy" who says but very little but
does much; there was a Photograph Tru.
EFT, and substantial John Berry, and a
Mrs. Rowland who came to meet her hus,
band and sonny Jim Rowland who had
proceeded her few days.
After all the Preliminary matters had
been arranged with reference to stalking
and filing claims jqck-rabbit chase was
organized, by jumping up we'll preserved
tWoyear Jackson, and appointing John
Ihorp as official starter, and DR.. Mason
and Mr.. Trutt to run along to see that the
finish was square. Jo Woodmancy held
the stop watch and Vivian Browning man
ipulated the bell, it was decided that the
race should be handicap, DR., Lease and
High Pockets strapped up one of Judge
Hublers legs, the bell tapped and the race
was on in full display. 1t will take the Off.
cial count to tell who won the race. AT the
last report, all of the croud who desired
got a good claim and the town folks were
glad to welcome the NeWkirk and Kildare
bunch, and will be glad to see any one of
them when they come to make their per
manent settlement. They allseemed much
pleased with the country, and glad to
know that their old friends John Allen
and AL Todd were SO nicely located and so
we'll contented. The editor of this paper
and all the citizens of the town hope for a
continuance of just that sort of settlers be
they from Oklahoma or elsewhere.
