stitutional government; our constitu
ton can be amended by the people
in accordance with the terms Of the
document itself, and no group of men,
however honorable or high minded,
can usurp this power without violat,
ing the fundamental principles of our
government.
1t has been suggested that the
rights of the states can lapse through
non-use, and that Congress is justified
in usurping the authority of the state
if the state fails to make the proper
use of it. While this doctrine has been
advanced in the pretended interest
of the people, it is as insidious a1d
been made on our constitutional form
of government. The people of the
state can act with more promptness
than the people of the nation, and it
they fail to act, it must be assumed
that the people of the state prefer in
action.
The real purpose that those have
in view who complain of the inaction
of the state, is not more strict regu-
lation of corporations, but the relief
OF corporations from state regulation.
The Democratic party favors the
full exercise of the powers of the gov.

Commercial Club has increased in
four years from 65 members in 1904
to 1872 at the present 1imc. 1t Is the
banner commercial organization of
New Mexico or elsewhere for the size
of the city.
Whenever anything comes up for
the betterment of Roswell, the Club
at once takes hold of the matter and
pushes it to completion. 1t not only
takes up matters as they appear, but
goes after and brings up new ones
Tor the benefit of Roswell and the
whole valley. Every farmer, lawyer,
doctor, merchant, or anyone who
wishes to benefit himself should take
inf bnr IN, r 0,,Ix
per month dues, and where can you
invest that sum to greater advantage
The more money the Club has the
more it can accomplish. We have
secretary who thoroughly under.
stands his business, and aided by the
active membership we have. attained
good results in the past and will &C.
complish greater ones in the future.
A commercial organization has be-
come a necessity to any community
which wishes to advance and keep
in the stride for commercial suprem-
acy. No one cares to do business or
live in a dead town. and the CONNER
cial Club will do more to keep Ros-
well in the public eye throughout the
whole country, to accomplish more
things for the benefit of the commun-
ity, and make things lively at home,
than anything else. The work of the
organization covers all public ques
tions, and the upbuilding not only OF
Roswell but the whole valley.
During the past year the Club as
sisted the City Council in carrying
the bond issue for water works and
sewers and other public improve
ments; took up the work of having
our citizens write to congressman
and senators with whom they were
acquainted, all over the country, ask
ing their assistance in securing the
appropriation of 100000 for our fed
eral building, and $4,000 for an arm
ory and convention hall; raised one
hundred thousand dollars bonus for
new railroad, and other things toe
numerous to mention.
