R. T. McClung recently wrote to
both Bryan and Taft, asking them
for expressions as to statehood for
New Mexico, and has received replies
to both letters. Mr.. Bryan fully en-
dorsed the National Democratic plat
form and specifically referred to the
plank on statehood. The reply from
Taft was not at all satisfactory, be-
ing evasive and avoiding the issue
at point, declining to give any ex-
preston whatever as to the securing
of statehood for New Mexico. 1t is
fully evident that MI. Bryan is hear
tily in favor of statehood and that
Mr.. Taft is following out the usual
republican method of placing a state
hood plank in the platform and then
doing nothing. The only hope of Sc
curing statehood for New Mexico lies
in the election of Mr.. Bryan and a
democratic congress.

A PLAIN STATEMENT.

The Albuquerque Morning Journal

it calls "a Plain Statement" in re-
gard to the nomination of Andrews.
The Record republisnes the statement
merely as a curiosity:
THAT there may be no misappre-
hension on the part of our readers"
the Journal says, with regard to the
course of the Morning Journal in the
present campaign, we deer it our du-
ty to give the public a plain statement
of the facts in the ase
1T is unnecessary for US TO say
that we opposed the nomination OF
Mr.. Andrews as vigorously as we
could, for evera easons which we
regarded as satisfactory. 1t is not
necessary to repeat here what those
reasons were. The most of the people
of the territory know them, n those
who do not can inform themselves
by consulting the files of the Morning
JournalEand they can be assured, at
the same time, that there is nothing
therein set forth pertaining to the
matter that we have any desire to
retract.
wv endeavored to the best of our
ability to impress upon the conve
ton two facts: First, that 1t was high
ly important to the cause of state'
hood that a Republican delegate
should be elected this fall, and, Sec
ond, hat the nomination of Mr.. An
drews meant the election of a Demo
cratic delegate. But the convention
say proper to nominate Mr.. Andrews
or, to put it in terms literally correct,
the machine forced mis- nomination.
And now let the machine elect him.

Does your roof leak? Do you know
 that we handle the best Roof Cement
 and Paints made-the Silk Fibre brand. This combines the greatest toughness
 with elasticity owing to its peculiar fibre (which is found in no other make) and adheres friendly to metal, slate and glass. It never grows brittle but expands or contracts with the roof in the summer or winter. If your roof leaks little you can fix it yourself and then touch it up with Roof Paint. You can make your roof secure for the win ter at very trifing cost, cheaper than having it leak. Everybody that has used it says it's o. K., that's a good record. - Harry Rider of 612 Water street, Bridgeport, keeps it always on hand.
