CANDIDATES AND
THEIR ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Candidates for Offices to be
filed al the general election in
November have finally come to
a realization that the time is not
far of when conventions are to
make a choice from the field and
nominate men for the various
positions, and accordingly have
come forward, placed their names
In print and shown their colors.
JAMES M. PoLHAMUS
announces his candidacy for the
office of County Recorder. He is
the present incumbent, and
having filled the position cap
ably for the past two terms, is
familiar with the duties, and if
nominated will make a strong
race, and if elected continue a.
good officer.
JOSEPH II. GODFREY
announces that he is a candidate
for reelection to the Office of
Probate Judge and Ex-oficiO
County Superintendent of
Schools. Judge Godfrey has
made an unusually good official
record during his ,incum bency
of one term, and so far as we
have heard will have little if any
opposition for the nomination.
= rs W. II. ELLIOTT 4
is a candidate for reelection to
the Office of County Surveyor,
which he has filled for many
years. 1t is generally conceded
shat Mr.. Elliott's knowledge of
surveying is not surpassed by
any man in this section, and his
candidacy like that of all other
good republicans, is subject to
the will and action of the repub-
Gcan convention.

Besides the merchants will keep

their visiting friends and Gus
toners good time. 1t will be a
rare opportunity for country
merchants to visit Albuquerque
and renew acquaintance with the
jobbers. They will find that the
wholesale houses of Albuquerque
are equal to the best in the West.
There is nothing lacking in the
Albuquerque houses for a coun-

everything in the jobbing houses

by the railroads September 29-

COMPARES CANDIDATES.

The greatest speech yet made
IN this presidential campaign
was that of Senator Beveridge
at Youngstown, Ohio, last Sat
urday. In the course of his adj
dress the Indiana Senator drew
a comparison between Mr.. Taft
and Mr.. Bryan which was most
remarkable for its accuracy.
Senator Beveridge said, in part:
'"This is campaign of candi-
dates even more than of plat
forms. The question is not which
candidate is most upright, patri-
otto, brave, for both are equally
so. Both mean equally well
toward their country. The real
question is, which candidate will
make the best president? Which
is the wisest and steadiest?
Which man would you choose as
administrator of your estate ?
Which would you select TO man.
age your business? Which has
the best training and the most
experience?
Mr.. Bryan has never handled
single foreign problem. He
has governed no Philippines,
regenerated no Cuba, built no
canal, avoided no alien danger,
saved us from no threatened
peril.
Mr.. Taft has done all. It was
his genius for the practical and
devotion to humanity that took

1t was William H. Taft who
set Cuba in order, established
her feet in civilizations upward
path; and it was he who, when
so directed by President Roose-
velt who first advised with Mr..
Taft when these children of lib.

up once more the blessed rule of
order and liberty and law with a
fathers patience and a states
mans wisdom. 1t is he who is
commanding the practical work
of that greatest enterprise of
human history, the building of
the Panama canal.
1t was he whose counsel Pres
ident Roosevelt sought at every
crisis of his historic administra-
ton; he who helped avert war
when little politicians andnarrow
minds would have plunged US
into conflict. 1t was William 81.
Taft whom orr president, when
confronted with foreign perplex-
tiles and with the awful weight

and wisdom; and it is William 81.

called to the leadership of the
American people who has had
the best training, the widest ex.

to fit him for that glorious but
serious task.

liam H. Taft's keynote for Tennessee
and the south was struck by the can
.didate at Chattanooga Throughout
the day, which was spent in travers.
ing the state, he followed the same
line OF argument and met with the
same hearty response
With verbal amplifications, Judge
Taft emphasized this argument:
with the material interests of the
south dependent upon continuance
Of Republican policies; with nothing
but historic tradition demanding its
people to vote the Democratic ticket,
praying meanwhile for the success OF
Republicanism; with southern Democ+
racy nothing but tail to northern
Democracys kite, then why not now
take the first political cold plunge, go
politically where the material inter
ests of the country demand, and vote
the Republican ticket"
So great was the demand for the
candidate that his itinerary Of four
stops was increased to IL. He spoke
during the day and evening at Chat
tanooga, Cleveland, Athens, Sweet
water, Loudon, Lenoir City, Knoxville,
Morristown, Greenville Johnston City
and Bristol.
