PLATFORM

We, the Democrats of New Mexico,
IN delegate convention assembled at
Roswell, again renew our pledge of
allegiance to those fundamental prin-
ciples of democracy a originally enun-
ciated by our hrst great leader, Thorn
as Jefferson, chief among which is
contained in the maxim, Equal rights
to all, special privileges to none" We
believe this maxim, rightly applied,
is capable of solving all the great
questions which are now agitating the
minds Of the American people-the
reform of the tariff, the suppression
of the trusts, the regulation of the
railroads and the attitude OF our gov
eminent towards Imperialism
We recognize that the democracy
of the United States has, today, many
tried and trusted leaders, anyone of
whom would worthily fill the Office of
Chief Magistrate Of this great nation,
but we cannot fail to recognize the
further fact that there is n demo
cratic leader, who, above all others,
has identified himself with all the re-

from 81 cadnps by Deputy Sherifs
actinganna ar instructions from the
Manages of bid companies; that the
ballot boxes were stuffed a1d the reg
istratioa and poll books we're padded
and hundreds OF foreigners were COM
PEELED to vote the Republican ticket
under threats Of discharge. We call
attention to the fact that these arbi-
trary acts have been continuously
practiced In colfax county for the past
eight until they have ripened IL
to an established system.
The undisputed record OF the Coum-
ty Valencia in election matters for
the past quarter OF a century a been
a stigma and q reproach upon the fair
name of New Mexico. It is a proven
aad established fact and 1t is not even
required that the voters should go to
the polls in that county, but the
officers of the Election Board cast
the ballots for all the absentees, while
in some instances the registration
lists are copied into the poll-books in
strict alphabetical order. At the last
election in this county and in Tor
rance County, Republican ballots were
substituted in place of Democratic
ballots actually cast, and in n pre-
cinct in the latter county the judges
of election openly refused to permit
any Democratic ballots to be cast
The foregoing Instances are but a
few of h many pen and defiant vio-
lations of our election laws and it is
humflating to be compelled to &C
knowledge hat with the single excep-
ton of Mr.. Frank W. Clancy, Dis
trict Attorney of the Second Judicial
District, no action has ever been ia
ken by any Republican official, Ma
tional OF Territorial, to stop these alb
uses or to punish the offenders.
We demand, and if entrusted with
the power, we pledge ourselves to a
strict enforcement OF the election
laws by the Courts and prosecuting
officers.
We are heartily In favor Of the
nomination of all party candidates by
a direct vote Of the people at primary
elections held for that purpose under
the sanction of the :aw and hereby
pledge our Representatives In the next
legislature to work and vote for such
a law.
We believe that all county officers
should be paid hxed salaries, instead
Of fees or commissions. for all SER
vices required of them by the Govern
ment.
We condemn the poncy OF the Fed
eral Government in prohibiting the
free grazing of livestock in the forest
reserves Of the Territory. as unwar.

The Albuquerque Sun, the new dali
ly which announces in every issue
that it is Democratic, and which re
prints editorials from Arthur Bris-
bane's book If editorials, has landed
in the Andrews band wagon. In an
editorial. last Wednesday evening,
over a column in length, it commits
itself to Andrews. The editorial
smells strongly of Max Frost, mo
more no less" 1t opens with the dec
laration so often made by the Sun
that it is Democratic, and winds up
Hike this: I'VE are compelled to say
it because we are honest and sincere
and that we believe that Andrews
should be nominated, and thai ne
should be elected for the greatest
good of the greatest number" This
move was expected on the part of
the Sun, which has, from the start,
been Democratic in name only. 1t was
repudiated from the first by the Dem
ocrats of Albuquerque and is being
repudiated by Democrats all over the
Territory. No Andrews organ will
gain anything by attempting to sail
under the Democratic banner-Santa
Fe Eagle.

Australians Big Appetite.

Perhaps b most astonishing Stats
tics in Mr.. Coughlan's book, Seven
Colonies of Australasia" are those that
describe what the average Australian
ats and drinks. Apparently he has
the best appetite, If not the best diges-
tion, of any human being on the planet.
He eats every year 264 pounds of meat,
which works out an average of two
sheep and one-ffth of a bullock for ev-
cry man, woman and baby in Australia
STA. He eats more than twice as much
meat as the average Englishman, three
times as much as the average French
man and foul times as much as the av-
erage German or Swiss. He eats, In
addition, about 375 pounds of wheat,
225 pounds of potatoes and almost 100
pounds OF sugar. If he is a Tasma-
MAN, he eats a quarter of a ION of po-
tatoes In q year, a quite surprising feat.

forms now demanded by our party and
believer in Democratic principles and
whose cry name, of itself, constitutes
a platform upon which the Democracy

ranted and arbitrary: such policy
tends to injure and destroy the inter
ests OF many small livestock raisers
and may create a monopoly of that
industry by the YER few wealthy own
ers OF sheep and cattle. The conser-
walton of our timber in such reserves
and the wise regulation of it's use in
order to prevent its waste and des-
truction, is a commendable economic
measure, but the free use of the
lands in such reserves for the grazing
of live stock u7der suitable regula-
tons does not in an manner interfere
with the proper care and protection
Of the timber growing therein and we
pledge the best effort of our ca1di-
date for Delegate to Congress to Sc
cure the removal OF pasturage charges.
We recognize that under an act of
Congress, the Interstate Commerce
Commission has complete Jurisdiction
to regulate rates to be charged by
common carriers doing business in
New Mexico. We charge that In
numerous Instances such rates are
not only excessive and exorbitant but
gross injustice is done through dis
examinations. We therefore favor the
creation of q commission by legislat-
i've enactment whose duty it shall be
to investigate the facilities furnished,
rates and Determinations and where
Injustice is being lone any citizen or
community, present such grievances
to the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion for adjustment. The Commission
so to be created should be composed
Of persons identified with the princi-
pal commercial and Industrial inter
ests of the territory and funds should
be provided so that every citizen on
locality may obtain just treatment
from common carriers at public ex-
pense.
We favor and demand the admis-
sion OF New Mexico into the Union
as . State. For about twelve years
the President and both houses of
of the United States have
been dominated by the Republican
party a1d during all that time the
people Of New Mexico have been beg

BRUTAL COLT TRAINING.

How Farmer Uaed Strategy
and q Bull Whip
There II a right way and a wrong
way Of breaking a colt to halter. The
latter method Is described by Sewell
Ford II Horses Nine" Blue Blazes,
the colt In the story, was owned by a
Michigan farmer. He had been fright
med by the first attempt to bride him
and had broken away. He was prompt
h declared + be a vicious colt.
"W8u tAuao himr" said Farmer Per
kins. Under his Goa he hid a stout
halter and q heavy bull whip. Then,
holding a grain measure tempttngly be
fore him, he climbed the pasture fence.
In the measure were oats, which he
ratified seductively. Also he called
mildly and persuasively. Blue Blazes
was suspicious. Four times he allowed
the farmer to come almost within
reaching distance, only to turn and bolt
with a snort of alarm just at the cru
dial moment At last he concluded that
he must have just one taste of those
oats.>
Come, coltie! Nice coltfe!' cooed
the man In a strained but con~ciliating
voice.
Blue Blazes planted himself for a
sudden whirl, stretched his neck as far
as possible and worked his upper lip
inquiingly. The smell of the oats
fured him on. Hardly had he touched
his nose to the grain before the meas
ure was dropped, and he found himself
roughly grabbed by the foreIock. In 8
moment he saw the hated straps and
ropes. Before he could break away
the halter was around. his neck and
buckled firmly.
Farmer Perkins changed his tone.
"Now, you ugly little brute, I've got
you! IJerk.l Blast your wicked hide!
ISlash.] You will, will your LYank.1
I'll Farm your TSlash.1
Man and colt were almost exhausted
when the "lesson" was finished. II
left Blue Blazes ridged with welts,
trembling, fright sickened. Never
again would he trust himself within
reach Of those men; no, not if they of
fered him q whole bushel of oats.

SUNNYSIDE
ASKS HELP

Sunnyside, N. NJ, July 6.-The Sun
nyside Commercial Club takes the
liberty to issue the following state
ment regarding the disastrous lorna
do HI swept our little community
on the afternoon of July End at five
o'clock.
Our community has a population of
400 people and is situated 70 miles
Cutoff of-the Santa Fe R. R. The
railroad name of the community is
Fit. Sumner.
The tornado was accompanied by
terrific hail that broke out all doors
and windows, making the disastrous
work of the wind easy, to the extent
of 35 totally wrecked houses and not
one left unchanged. The night of Ju-
Y End, 1908, shall always be wildly
remembered, and painfully so, by
the citizens of our little m unity.
No lights, no stoves, no shelter, no
dry clothes, and the ground all but a
solid sheet of hail.
It is all but miraculous that scores
were not killed, n we are grateful
and more than pleased to state that
there are only three deaths recorded
However, there are many seriously
injured and unlimited numbers bruis-
ed with hail and flying timbers.
The MANNED and injured were
crowded into the depot and one or
two other partially dry houses where
