GOVERNOR HAoERMAN IS STIR
 INC UP THE ANIMALS.
(El I'aso Herald ]

Governor Hagcrmau has certainly stirred up the animals in New Mexico. He has evidently determined to swap packs and have a new deal, and heads are falling like leaves in November. The Republican party is worse divided than usual, and the unique spectacle is pre-. vention endorsing a Republican gov ernor.
 New Mexico no doubt will benefit from inc general stirring up. If tho men under charge are cxonerated. it will at least clear the atmosphere, for there has been rumors of unpleasant things for n long time. If rcal cul. prits are caught and punished. the ter. ritory will be greatly the gaincr, and the Republican party will gain most of all, for no party ever thrived for long on rascality.
 The Democrats in New Mexico are undoubtedly growing stronger. and the time will come when the territory will become competitive ground, as Arizona is today. In Arizona the Democrats have long bccn in control. but the Re. publicans arc coming to the front and preparing for n vigorous fight.
 Governor IIagcrman appears to bc n man of jndcpcndcnt views and ways and there is good deal of admiration among the plain citizens for the way be has started out to improve political and administrative conditions

HAVE no HOLIDAY.
Many Persons Work Harder on
Christmas than on Other Days.

There are MANY persons who have no
holiday at Christmas, or at least very lew
of the pleasurable moments on that aus
picious occasion that they may freely
call their W to spend in any way oil
enjoyment hat they desire. This is espe-
cially true in the cities. To begin "lth'
it is the hardest day of the year for eH-
pressmen, letter carriers and messengers.
The express companies are crowded to
the limit with packages, and every one
to be delivered on Christmas day. Even
the big extra force which is put on fails
to relieve the press of work, and 1t Is a
lucky e1pressman who gets home even on
Christmas night to eat his turkey with
his own family.
And the letter carricrs-how they must
work that every Christmas card and every
Christmas packet confided to the mails
may reach its destination! Christmas is
a sorry story for the faithful postman.
And the messenger boys-what with de-
l~ivering flowers and candy and boxes of
jewelry, and books and hundreds of Other
things, theirs is Il busy day.
People must get about on Christmas
day, so motormen and conductors on sur
face and subway and IL" have to do their
trick as usual.
Buildings nave TO be just as warm OF
Christmas and lights are needed just the
same, so engineers and tiremen and cleo
tricians and gas men nave TO labor for
the comfort of others. The great hotels
are crowded with guests, and bellboys,
chambermaids, walters and elevator men
work as usual on Christmas day.
People send messages of good will on
Christmas day more than on any other
day in the year. So telegraph operators
must stick to their keys and telephone OPP
orators to their receivers. There are just
as many sick on Christmas so there is no
holiday for doctors or trained nurses or
druggists. The city must be guarded pa
trolmen have to pace their beats. Fires
are even more likely on Christmas and
the tiremen have to spend the day in their
engine houses.
And, last of all, it is perhaps the hard
est day in the year for clergymen, choris-
tiers and %organists because of the services
that are so elaborate. SO it will be seen
that Christmas isn't at all a day of mer-
riment and ease for cverybody-far from
