Edward a. Mann has announced
himself a candidate TOR delegate TO
congress.
The News is conscientiously re-.
publican and as such believes that
the political welfare OF the Terri.
tory can be best subserved by hav-
ing that party in control. So tar
as the delegate to congress in the
nex, election is concerned, 1t means
much TO all OF us OF what political
faith the man we send TO Wash.
ing,on is. The next senate and
house will be republican, and a
democrat from this Territory will
be handicapped in such n way that
il will be next I' impossible Tor
him to get any recognition at all.
So, with the welfare OF all the PEG.
pie at heart, We want a republican
delegate TO represent us in the nexl
congress. We know that the demo
Gratis believe they have a fighting
chance this fall, and we know thai
no stone will he lett unturned hl

also know that the democratic par

votes since the last election in thi'
portion OF the Territory, and vi
know that the republicans mus

A political contest is always at.

certainty. Such might he said OF
the national election this year hut

ed. But in New Mexico the re-.
publican party cannot soothe itself
10y the supposed existence OF
any such condition. Two years
ago the result OF the election Tor
delegate was very close, so close
that it should dlspcl any illusion
that may possess som" politicians
or some part OF the epubli can
press, that we have a cinch this
year. The News believes that with
the proper cliort a republican vic.
tory is assured, but 1t is necessary
that the proper effort be made,
We do not mean by this that We
are allyipg ourseli to the candidacy
oil any one in particular nor are we
paving the way Tor any sensational
announcement. What we mean is
that the republican press OF the
territory, and the accepted leaders
OF the party, should have at heart
the interest oil the party rather
than the interest OF any particular
candidate. We are not, by this
article, ei,.Ier advocating or disap.
proving OF any candidate, but We
do not approve the idea, that seems
to exist in some quarters, that the
republican party owes it" to some
particular candidate or to some
particular section OF the territory.
