one hundred delegates elected, Uev-

from republican counties. In some
counties democrats were elected on

party leaders TO have the COMMITTEES

into the impossible arrangement OF a
so-cailed no~n-psrtisan plan for the

may prove the best kind OF economy
on a large scale for New Mexico to
send a big delegation to the irrigation
congress this year.
In this connection II may be pointed
out that the Mesilla valley and south
ern New Mexico have already com
bined with FL Paso to fill a big special
train. With such a large representa-

Elephant Butte dam. 1t is highly inn

be easy TO fiji a special train with
boosters from north of the Engle pro-
ject and II may be wise to have a good
crowd at the congress to represent the
interests OF the upper valley. Consid-
ering the present irrigation situation
as regards this section, this may be in
some respects the most important
congress yet held as far as this city
and central New Mexico is concerned.
The situation regarding the holding up
Of all the water rights north of the

THE BUZZ A G BUG.

Ten years ago there wasn't an auto
mobile in Albuquerque. Today there
are a hundred cars. ranging from rum
.abouts 20 the most expensive style OF
heavy touring car, and the automo-
bile trade In Albuquerque and New
Mexico has shown n remarkable and
steady increase for the past few
months.
The motor germ In Albuquerque is
rampant and is ravaglng all classes OF
citizens. That II Is not a craze, how
ever, is shown by the fact that nearly
every man who buys an auto buys 1t
because he needs it in his business.
The motor car is now recognized as a
business necessity. not a luxury, as
an adjunct to money making and not
a means OF getting rid of money. 1t
goes without saying that there is no
more effective instrument. properly
used. than the auto for separating a
man from his savings; but the profess
sional JOY rider whose sole ambition is
To wear out tires Is conspicuous by his
absence in this section.

class impression as TO progress and
modcrnity when he alights from the
train and sees a half dozen OF the

back and forth across the streets. 1t
makes us look prosperous and full of
business and helps the appearance OF
things a lot. But the chief reason
why We should encourage the automo-
bile trade is the fact that as the
motors Increase SO surely must the
good roads movement gain strength

the automobile is everywhere evident

l~licans of the territory demanded an
opportunity TO vote for republican
candidates for delegates TO the con-
stitutionai convention, and that the
constitution should be written by re-
publicans along republican lines. This
was based on accurate Information
that we were able 10 nave and was not
mere guess work. The delegates are
now elected. and the next step Ia tbs
organization of the convention and
making a constitution for submission
TO the people. The republican party
Is responsible for the product of the
convention and should have a care in
Hts organization and in all Of It's do
ings. The constitution Is going to
meet opposition and this opposition
win be strong or weak. according TO
the good judgment. party loyalty and
patriotism OF the party leaders. No
mistake must be made IN the selection
OF the presiding officer of the eonven-
ton. He must be a man OF q clean
and invulnerable record, and without
any interests TO serve except the good
Of all the people. Furthermore. he
should be one Of our best known re-
pubIicans, and enjoy q wide and
favorable acquaintance among all OF
our people. The delegates should be-
ware Of candidates seeking the posl-
ton Of presiding offlce- OF the con-
who have special interests 10
serve. or are closely allied with corr
porate interests. or who are for any
reason vulnerable. Tho eelec-
ion OF such a man would create sus-
llcion among the people and would

Who may oppose the adoption OF the 1
constitution. This is OF so much i'm {

BURDEhfNG THE PEOPLE.

when the question first arose as 10
the Incorporation Of the initiative, ref
erendum and recall into the consfitu-
tion OF the state OF New Mexico, there
were a large number Of citizens who
didn't have any very accurate idea OF
how these measures worked and what
they we're. This newspaper, indeed.
had never devoted much careful study
to the proposition. Since the present
campaign began we have given the
matter a pretty thorough investiga-
ton and have published In these col
umns articles on the subject, pro and
con, from the most intelligent men In
New Mexico, and from outside author
tiles who know whereof they speak.
This newspaper has done more than
any other agency In New Mexico TO
lay the proposition before the peoples
to bring about a general understand
ing OF the measures proposed, and a
general knowledge of how they have
worked in actual practice in oregon,
Los Angeles and elsewhere. I'll
Tho result of the recent election
shows that after careful, intelligent
consideration the voters Of New Mex

sions. Some republicans. a part of
the big majority which will control

expressed themselves In favor Of the
Initiative and referendum with a high
percentage basis. The democrats have
flatly stood on the platform that II
