A POLITICAL susTERFueE.

The Record aas learned that a
movement is on DOT TO put up a So
called business mems ticket at the
coming city election The plan is SIM
ply TO lame a number of prominent
men. call it a business mems ticket
and ignore the saloon question. leav-
ing II to the Judgment of the bust
ness men, If elected, to decide for
the people, apparently assuming that
the people as = whole are not compe-
tent to decide this question for them
selves. The Record is frank to say
that we are opposed to such a move
ment TO befuddle and complicate tle
saloon question, and we will not sup
port any C ticket, no matter under
what name n regardless of who
may be nominated to the places pom
it. The only straight way, the only
satisfactory way, and the only truly
democratic way is TO pass this ques-
ton up to the people of the city. and
this can be done only by submitting
ii to the oters at an election called
for that purpose and for no other.
IL Is idle to discuss purely business
matters, for the great issue before
the people of Roswell Is the saloon
question and everyone knows II. Any
other issue injected into tne election
Is to side-track the liquor question,

a move of the saloon interests or by
their friends, and the fathers of any
such scheme will be condemned by
the people. The voters ask for a clear
cut fight on the saloon question, and
IL Is evident to any one who knows
the sentiment of the people of RIOS
well on this matter, that they will
have II. They will not delegate TO bus
mess men or TO any one else the
right to decide this matter for them,
but will demand the right to decide
for themselves. This much can be
gathered in an hour on the streets
of Roswell any day by any person in,
terested enough to enquire.
Will a party ticket be placed in
the field? We regard il as doubtful
and believe the fight should be an
open one. The great issue before the
people of Roswell is not n political
one. Ii Is n matter concerning the
Dorals of the city. the happiness of

On this matter and the city be run
On business principles all at the same
time. but we DO not believe the peo-
pie of Roswell will care to buy any

present time.
It Is rumored that q certain saloon
man has made a tentative proposal
TO certain of the aldermen OF the city
that he will pay ten or perhaps fifteen
thousand dollars for an exclusive
saloon license, but as IL Is also rum
ored that this is the same man who
is now In the county Jail charged with
violating n territorial liquor law. we
10 not believe any city administration
elected on any Kind of a ticket would
care TO stand sponsor for any such
arrangement. No doubt others of the
saloon men are laying plans to freeze
out the balance OF their fellow trades
men.
There is another matter connected
with tlis matter of special interest

the county elections No doubt some
people would like to see the liquor
fight carried beyond the city. but 1t

The people of Roswell will do well

right to II without suffering absolute
political jamnation.

Attention Farmers!
Electric Power For Pumping.

Viz hout water your fertile valley lands are dormant,
fail to respond to most Industrious cultivation and con-
tinues to tenaciously hold the hidden wealth locked with
in the soil. With water the same fertile lands are no
longer dormant and no longer fail to respond to indus
trious cultivation, but will bring forth wealth in a most
generous manner. Golden fields of grain, green fields of
alfalfa and acres of orchard will appear where now the
lands are barren. This is the law of nature. To elevate
the water from les present level to the level OF your lands
at the lowest cost SO the lands may be irrigated is the
problem confronting you. The solution of the problem
is the use OF electric power for pumping.
Electric power is the cheapest power for pumping and
all power purposes for the farmer aud all power users.
Ii is not only the cheapest, but Is the safest and the most
reliable and convenient power that can be used. In addi-
ton, it is the only power that can be applied directly at
the point where the power is wanted, viz: At the pump
shaft, with direct connection TO the shaft, saving the
large loss of power due to friction in betting, pulleys and
shafts. We are ready to demonstrate the truthfullness of
these statements to all comers.
We are prepared to furnish power for the irrigation
of 10000 acres of land the coming season and will in
crease our plant capacity as the business demands.
Lines will be extended for a distance of % miles from our
power plant where the business warrants the expense of
construction. We are not justified in mourning the cost
of line construction and other necessary expense unless at
least 5000 acres will use electric power the coming
season.
We will not ask the farmer to subscribe for any of
our stock, or to contribute or donate to us, or to he at
any other expense than the cost of the line from the main
transmission line along the public highway over his prem
Uses to his pumping station, the necessary pump and
motor equipment for his well and a concrete weir for
measuring the water. The contract must. however, be
for a sufficient period of years to justify our outlay and
in such form as to follow the land regard less OF change of
ownership.
Those interested are requested to call at our office or
write, furnishing the following information:
a. Name and Post Office address.
CO. Number of acres owned.
a. Number of acres to be irrigated.
a. Location and description OF land.
(5) Size of well and actual or estimated flow and
length of well casing. If well is to be drilled SC
state and when it will be completed.
co. Distance water is to be elevated.
90 Distance from our power plant to land along
public highways.
49, Names and addresses of others who require and
now want power for pumping.
Remember it takes time to construct lines and make
installations and it is only a few months until you will
need the water. If you are interested you should act at
once.
