may read.
But such heroic actions are by nc
means rare. Hardly a day passes but
some similar act of self sacrifice is
enacted without the fanfare Of trum
pets or the strains of martial music
1t is easy to understand how men
will risk and give their lives when
stimulated by the glorious circum'
stances of war" But the Quintessence
of heroism, the very highest type OF
devotion to humanity, the supreme
test of altruism, is performed amid
the humdrum life-the escue al
seaside resorts, at mine disasters, in
railroad wrecks, in trolley car coils.
Ions, at fires-in the thousand and
one situations in which the ordinary
man Or woman finds himself or her
self in the passing day. If we look
for them we can fad such instances
of heroism in abundance. And those
cases are the Supreme Test. They
show that in human nature, despite
the diatribes of pessimists and the
excavations Of pseudo-philosophers
there resides in human nature an e1e.
ment Of the divine.

Now just fancy a supposedly sane
newspaper man writing such stuff as
the above. 1t Is enough to force any
man of ordinary intelligence to think
the Citizen man has become Temporal
rily unbalanced, probably by despair
over the political situation.
Every resident of Roswell knows
that Andrews will lose many votes
here that he received two years ago,
and that not a Democrat worthy OF
the name will vote for him. Many Re-
publicans are utterly disguised with
the Bull" and will asst their bal
lots for Larrazolo.
And here Is another pipe dream in
dulged in by the Citizen man:
1.-THE people of the Pecos Valley
] and of eastern New Mexico want
statehood and thai badly. They have
| already seen what Andrews can do
in Congress in the way of securing
what he goes after. They believe that
Andrews can secure statehood and
| they know moreover that Larrazolo
cannot"
Now isn't that the limit? Does the
| Citizen man forget the railroad And
rews promised the people of Roswell
or the deep we'll he would give the
people of Roswell? Every time a Ros-
well man gets a coal bill he remem-
- ~. o,,- @11- -@z Iro"c
promised us and then, if he De a Re-
publican, he determines to vote for
Larrazolo. And statehood. What a
| familiar cry 1t is, heard every two
years and for the same old purpose
to ~perpetuate the gang in control.
Every intelligent man knows that
Andrews cannot secure statehood.
They know that the Republicans
have always voted to keep New Mex
leo out of the Union and that despite
their solemn platform pledge. They
know, further that the Republicans
will do the same thing again. That
Republican pledges are simply bats
to catch suckers. No. statehood de
ponds upon the election of Bryan and
Larrazolo.
Now here's another choice bit from
dreamland:
"Advices received by the Citizen
from several sections of the Pecos
valley and from two Or three counties
tremendous growth in the Andrews
sentiment N a decided falling off
In Larrazolo votes. A number of Dem
ocrats, who do not want to scratch
their ticket for the party's sake, have
signified their intentions of not going
to the polls rather than to vote against
the only delegate this territory has
ever had, when it came to getting
things for New Mexico"
Now isn't that absurd? Advices re.
Why, almost every day Republicans
come into the Record Office and an
nounce their determination to vote
for Larrazolo, sick of the gang, tired
of the party that let's such men as
Andrews, Bursum, ct al, to control it
and determined to cast their votes
for good government.
h great wave of settlement
that has overwhelmed the eastern
counties Of New Mexico during the
last two years, is eighty per cent

The Steamer Flyer lost It's wheel
in the ST. Joe river Saturday after

SPEEDE WANTS
SPEEDY TRIAL.
Admits Forgery and is Held to
the District Court

H. J. speede, charged by Chief of
Police McGovern with the crime Of
forgery, appeared in the court of
Judge Chamberlin today to answer
the charge. He waived his prelim-
mary examination and then added
that he wanted to get rid of all form
alities Of a trial. and in addition en-
freed plea of guilty, and was given
into the custody of the sheriff's off,
Gals until his case shall come up at
the next term of the district court.
Forged Name of Carr.
The charge preferred against
Speede by the chief of polio, and to
which he entered a plea Of guilty,
consisted in forging the name of John
Carr, a plasterer, to a check. The
check was drawn on the Exchange
National bank for the sum of S25.
and was drawn in favor of Speede.
Besides this check Speede had also
passed a check on ]. F. Goldsmith for
the sum Of $50, and it was he who
first caused his arrest. This matter,
however, was settled, and the case
dismissed, but in the mean time the
chief had found on the person of
Speede this other check, and a num-
Der Of others to which was signed
the name of John Carr and ready for
use, and an additional charge was
preferred.
Made Escape but Recaptured.
Speede was arrested Saturday fore
noon, and was to have made his ap-
pearance in the afternoon before
Judge Chamberlin to answer to the
same Offense to which he plead guilty
today. He was at first confined in
the old city jail, but the chief feared
he would make his escape from it
and had him incarcerated in one of
the steel cages in the new city jail. |
Speede, in some unexplained manner
succeeded in springing the lock to
the cage, and effected his escape He
left behind note to the chief pinned |
on the door of the cage which read, |
'Speede is gone. how did he do it.
After his escape diligent search was
Instituted for him and he was finally |
as he was attempting
to board one of the evening trains
bound for Spokane, at Huetter, Sat
lrday night, and was brought back
and inearcerated.

GOSSIP OF THE RING.
Los Angeles Fight for Heavyweight
Championship.

Championship.
NEW YORK. Dee. 2s.-A nght
which may decide the future heavy
weight championship Of the world
will be pulled on In Los Angeles this
week. Jim Barry, the Chicago heavy
weight, and AL Kaufman, Billy
Delaney's protege. are the principals,
the Jeffries Athletic club the place,
and Wednesday evening the time.
The result Of the tight will decide
the heir-aspirant to the heavyweight
throne, and unless all the dope goes
wrong, Kaufman will be the winner.
The mill is scheduled to go forty-nve
rounds. but 1t is unlikely that Kauf-
mann win allow Barry to 90 that dis
lance.
According to the reports from the
coast, however, Barry isn't scared
about the result and thinks he has a
good fighting chance to beat Della
ney's coming champion. Barry Is a
nervy man, and Is the only fighter
with sand enough to 60 up against
Sam Langford. Barry has figured In
Ave scraps with the black one, and
hasn't always come out second best.
He has been showing great improve
ment In every battle. and while all
the indications point to a Kaufman
victory, the big boy will have to fight
for II.
Billy Delaney, manager OF Kauf-
mann, believes he has the coming
worlds champion in the boy from the |
golden west, just as he had when he
took Jim Corbett, then a slender
STRIPPING. to New Orleans, to wrest
glory, money and title from the |

Delaney to bring jforuh Aris third

bett, he made Jehries a champion
and the sage of fistania believes he is
fated to bring out his third.
Kaufman has the requisites OF q
champion. He Is big, rangy, power
iul and fast. He can hit with either
hand like the kick Of a mule. He can
AXE punishment when he has to. but
his defensive ability generally makes
his unnecessary. Delaney Is a firm
believer in the value of a left hand.
He has often declared that a man
