has arbitrated and smoothed over
more fights within his party han any
other man in the county. He is a Mis-
souri, Democrat, always working for

long enough to be called an old-tim-

office he is a new-timer.

LEGATION of the Daily Record was not
begun one The Democrats of
the Pecos Valley did not take up the
question until a little over two years
ago, and the Territory had never had
a genuine reform governor until Mr.,
Hagerman was appointed. But when
all these forces combined in the de
mand for abolition of licensed gam
bling, even the Republican legislature
was able to read the handwriting
and the example of Roswell and Ar
tesla presented an object lesson so
plain that the Republican leaders
wondered why they had never thought
of it before.

is that each person in Roswell VINO

In the days referred to by the above

being a Democrat, was inclined to
regard prohibition as a sumptuary
law. However times and circum-
stances change and our opinions
change with them. Not only indiyid-
ual Democrats, but whole Democrat
ic states have been changed in the
past few ear by the meddIing of
saloons in politics-and if nigh lie
move. The people are in earnest,
and if the liquor interests persist in
their efforts to corrupt the Democrat

soon find themselves entirely out of

A library Is something more than a
collection Of books. An imposing ar
ray of sumptuous and untouched vol
umes does not make one. Your books
should express your own individual
ity, says writer in the Delineator.
Do not let any one persuade you to
buy book you know is not your kind
of book. Do not be lured into buying
ii handsome library edition of some
author that you do want if the library
edition is heavy and uncomfortable to
hold and your own preference is a
comfortable pocket edition with flexi-
BILE covers. And, above all, if you are
building up a home library to which
the whole family is to have free ac-
cess do not choose bindings of such
delicate colors or expensive texture as
to destroy all the comforts Of reading.
