MANN IS THE MAN

Judge Mann has a personality
that makes friends wherever he
goes and anyone who meets him
recognizes at once the broadmlndcd,
sterling quality OF the man. He
has a record while on the bench IN
New Mexico, surpassed by none
and is recognized rs being one OF
the most able lurlsts IN New McXi.
co. II Is such a mar that We need
TO represent uur interests IN Con-
Ircss; one who Is acquainted with
the needs OF the comparatively new
country and people III the eastern
part ut the Territory, and Judge
Mann certainly does understand
them, not only from his thorough
personal acquaintance with the
onaltions here, hut As well from
MS having lived in a newly settled
COUNTRY all his lite N the various
states IN which he has resided.
MANN Is THE MANN and the
people oi Muntuya and vicinity will

The foregoing conclusion oi the
Muntoya Republican that Mann IS

1907 was thifty-one per cent. lower
than IN Ioob IN the territory IN his
jurisdiction, including the canal
zone, Panama and Colon, and he
had under his supervision the
health OF many thousands Ol men
from different parts OF the earth
engaged in draining swamp land
in what has been probably the
most deadly region ~ existence.
In March, 1907 thirty.six thousand
employees were under his personal

there was n loss OF one hundred
and twenty-five; IN the correspond
inp month ui 1908, out OF forty.
three thousand employees there wcr,
only lurtv.hvc deaths. The NOR.
talitv rate on the canal zone this
vcar has so lar been less than that
OF the city OF New York, which ie
among the lowest, urban or rural
in civilization. Therefore IT is
now estimated that through santa.
ton and medical skill preserving
the health OF laborcrs engaged on
the Panama canal, that what vas
at first estimated to be n ioh OF
twenty-five years OF more, will be-
completed within thu next FIVE
years. II is an acknowledged tact

frocks made two months ago proclaim
their age by the amount Of fullness at
the shoulders for in the fall models
there is little more material than is re-
Quired for comfort.
Such modes mean that thin stuffs
must, OF necessity, be employed, as
thick fabrics would be almost impos-
sible to manipulate Therefore, when
cloth costume is made, one sees that
the stuff which must be used for deco
ration appears in the sleeves, the lat
ter being saved from an effect OF
marked contrast only by clever manipu-
latfon of the trimming. If satin bands
are employed on cloth dresses, the
sleeves should be satin. II the gown is
silk, or satin, lace trimmed, the sleeves
would be of silk rather than the lace
because, when possible, they continue
the foundation scheme rather than ac-
centuate the trimming.
Fortunately for those who do not
like striking styles. few materials used
are stiff; therefore it Is possible to en-
ploy the principal goods for all parts
of the frock. Ladies' cloth and the
novelty effects are softIthat, indeed
might be called the distinguishing fea-

Of fact, the most popular stuff for call

draperies and folds of the empire
