OF ACCEPTANCE IN FULL
Democratic Candidate for Delegate to Congress Ac-
Cepted the Nomination in Talk Full of Thought
for the vOterS--IeIS How He Was Robbed of the
Fruits of the Victory Two Years Ago.

vention; Ladies' and Gentlemen:
Your Committee. Mr.. Chairman.
has informed me of the action taken
In this convention this evening, In
rendering to me. on behalf of the
Democratic party OF New Mexico, the
nomination to be Its candidate for
the ONCE Of delegate from this Terri
tory to the National Congress.
Mr.. Chairman and gentlemen Of the
convention, I appreciate very highly
the honor that you have conferred
upon me. II rendering that nomina-
tion- 1 fully appreciate and realize
the heavy responsibilities that the
honor carries with 1t, and in accept
ing the nomination, do 50 fully ap-
preciative of both the honor and the
responsibilities conferred. I accept
the nomination (Applause) for two
reasons.
First, 1t La an honor not lightly to
be refused, that of representing
great and intelligent commonwealth
like that Of this Territory, in the Ma
tons Congress.
Second, fellow citizens, accept the
nomination for the sef-same reason
I was induced to accept it two years
ago, when 1t was likewise rendered
to me by the Democrats of New Mex
leo. because I believe that it is the
duty of every American citizen to
serve his government when he 10
called upon by the people to do SO.
There is. fellow citizens, a mission
leo, and every other law-abiding citi-
zen Of this Territory, regardless of po-
litical faith, Is called upon to perform
aid discharge at this peresent time.
1 do not wish to appear as being un-
duly critical of the official conduct of
those who have. for the past IL years,
had control of the political destinies
of our Territory. I believe that all
men. in private or official life. should
be judged with mercy and with due
consideration for the frailties of our
humanity. But neither 1 nor you can
close our eyes to the fact that, with a
very brief period of respite during the
past twelve years, we have been sub
jeted to the shame of an administra-
ton OF public affairs that calls upon
ritory to interfere for the purpose of
correcting AID amending. (Applause)
My fellow citizens, suppose that, as
American Citizens, we are proud of
our Government. We are proud of
the Government bequeathed to us by
the fathers of the republic. the equal
OF which has never graced this good
world OF ours. We here enjoy the
greatest measure of individual and
collective opportunity that ever any
people have enjoyed. We have insti-
tutions that are calculated to endure
As long as Justice shall reign upon
the earth. Here 1t Is truly said, a7d
not only said, but carried into prac-
tice. that all men are born equal; that
we. who promulgated the doctrine that
among men deriving their just powers
from the consent OF the governed. do
as . matter of fact, put In practical op
GRAFTON that principle that was con-
ceved in the mighty brain of the ia
ther of democracy, Thomas Jefferson.

equal protection Of the law. But. my

Roosevelt. Ariz-. Sept 10-(Special correspondence of The Republican.)- The lake here at Roosevelt is now a thing of the past, leaving in it's place vast mud flats with the Tonto and Salt rivers making their way through them in a couple of small though deep streams. The banks of the for mer lake show up from eight to fif- teen feet high of very treacherous mud
 The government lighter and gaso- line launch put in an appearance here at last on last Sunday. but have not been put on the river as yet. and it will be very doubtful if there will be enough water left at the new crossing to admit of their use unless the water going through the tunnel is partly shut off and al- lowed to rise a little back of the dam. As to the gasoline launch, it can not be used until a new pro- peller and steering wheel and a few other trifles like them have been re- ceiVed here. It seems that these necessary articles were either omitted when the boat was shipped, lost on the railroad or stolen en route. as they failed to arrive here There was also a row-boat with the gov- ernment outfit This also lacked means of propulsion. no oars being found with it.
 The lighter is about forty two feet long, eight and one-half feet at ends and nine and one-half feet at the middle. and stands about twenty two or twenty four inches at its greatest depth The hull is of riveted steel with a deck of two and one-half or three inch timber The launch is a twenty one footer and built also of steel and capable of seating ten or twelve people
 Mir. Depew of Phoenix is to have charge of these boats. and will be stationed on the banks of the river with a signal station on each side so that he will be able to give prompt service after they once get to going.
 In the meantime, passage across the river with the present means of transportation is a thing to be avoid ed. except when absolutely neces- sary, while an accident Is to. be ex- pected any day
 Two large busses loaded with Ital- ians were brought over from Globe thss week to swell out the force of laborers for J. M- O'Rourke & Co.

It was so swollen on Sunday that she could not wear her shoe. Miss Lillis says next time she does any barn dancing demonstrating. she will wear clog shoes. Miss Lillis has just re- turned from an eastern trip to New York and says that she likes the east immensely and would not mind living in New York City for while. Miss Beebe was also much infatu- ated with the east and is determined to go again. One thing that they missed and regret very much was visiting the Hippodrome, the largest place of amusement under one roof in the world The writer has had the pleasure of being there and fully realizes what they missed.
 All those desiring to become can didates for the baseball team in Kel- win are requested to send their names to Joe Bryan. Practice games will be held on the flat near the station. A series of games is to be arranged with the strong Ray team and there will be plerty of excitement here after on Sunday afternoons.
