AS was fully expected, and
freely predicted by the Tribune
Citizen. since the unofficial re-
turns indicate a safe Republican
majority in the constitutional
convention the Republican lead
ers and Republican newspapers
are pronouncing that majority the
death Of the initiative and refer
endum, although many of the
Republicans elected pledged them
selves in their platforms for the
measures.
This disregard for platform
promises is not a new thing in
Republican politics, as in fact one
of the national leaders of that
party once stated on the f1eor Of
congress that platform promises
were to catch votes with, not to-
be kept, and that seems to have
been Immediately adopted by the
bosses as their method.
But there are Republicans in
that convention who have been
elected on a platform declaring.
for the initiative and referendum.
who cannot be controlled by the,
party bosses, and until they show
themselves to be unmindful of
their promises the Tribune Citi-
zen is going to take it that those
men elected on a platform de-
claring for the initiative and re-
ferendum will vote that way in
the convention, and upon this
basis the vote in the convention,
not taking mts consideration men
in both parties who may not be
in accord, will be 81 for the ini-
tiative and referendum and 49
against. Tribune Citizen.

RESULTS OVER THE TERRITORY
Republicans Elect So, Democrats 23 and Fu-
slonists % Delegates

In the election for delegates to
the constitutional convention of
New Mexico the initiative and the
referendum won.
The margin is a narrow one,
but it is nevertheless a margin
for direct legislation in the con-
stitution of New Mexico.
There were a total of So straight
Republicans elected to the con-
I vention, according to returns re-
ceived by the Tribune Citizen
complete today. There were q
straight Democrats and 19 fu-
sionists.
There are enough Republicans
in the straight Republican column
to secure the initiative and refer
endum with the aid of the Dem
ocrats and fusionists. At least a
dozen independent Republicans
and Roosevelt men were on the
straight Republican ticket in the
various counties.
The % Democrats on the straight
tickets are all solidly for the ini-
tiative and referendum.
The 19 fusionists stand on plat
forms pledging them to the ini-
tiative and referendum.
In Quay and Union counties the
Republicans were as firmly com
mitted to the initiative and refer
endum as the Democrats, while
the entire eight votes of Berna-
lilo county in the convention will
be pledged to the initiative and
referendum.
The signal rebuke administered
to Mr.. Catron in his own county
is proof positive that his stand on
| the initiative and referendum lest
him many votes, and this will
strip him of his old time power
to rule.
! With the sentiment of the peo-
pie so strongly in favor Of the
initiative a n d referendum in
themselves, it is clear that the
convention which makes the con-
stitution will have to incorporate
these measures or suffer the
humiliation of seing their labor
lost in a rejection of the consti-
tuition at the polls. Tribune Citi-
zen.

enth grades, twenty-six pupils.
Mr. Russell, Eight grade and

ginning. The school board has

tween the ages Of seven and four
teen years, physically able, re-
siding within three miles of the
school house, must send the chill
dren to school, under penalty of
twenty-five dollars fine for not
doing SO. Those failing to com
ply with this lax. may have an
opportunity Of explaining their
reasons to some court.
The term promises 10 be the
best in the history Of the school,
and parents are invited to visit
the scilUoI at any time, The
teachers will be glad to have Wis
its more frequently from the
parents than has been'the custom
heretofore.

Mrs. R66d has Fins
Lot Of Tomatoes

If anyone doubts that tomatoes
can be raised in abundance here,
he should make a trip to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. R.
Reed, three miles west and one
mile south Of town. We know
whereof we speak, because we
investigated to our entire salts
faction,
On last Sunday afternoon, in
company with wife and t h e
girlies, the editor drove out to
Reeds farm. Mr.. and Mrs. Reed
were not at home, but that
didn't interfere with our invest
cation in the least. We found
four or five hundred tomato
plants literally loaded to the
ground with tomatoes, from the
little green fellows just setting
on to the large luscious dead ripe
ones already falling off. AS the
kitchen door was not locked, we
had no trouble in finding the
salt jar, and armed with a hand
full of salt and an armful of to-
matoes, we proceeded to enjoy
ourselves as we haven't t done for
years. In fact the afternoon re-
minded us of boyhood days back
in Hoosierdom. For once, again,
we had all the tomatoes we
wanted. We made no effort to
keep accurate account OF the
number consumed, but if Mrs.
Reed will report the quantity
that disappeared and the price,
we will attempt to dig up"
We might have enjoyed the af-
ternoon more if the Reeds had
been at home, but This is ques.
tionable, as we had the salts
faction of knowing no one was
watching aud wondering if we
would ever get enough.

REPUBLICANS Win IN COUNTY
Pledge of Direct Legislation on Part Of cand-
dates Brings Victory

Election Il delegates to. the
Constitutional Convention to be
held ut Santa fe, October 8, is
now a thing OF the past. The
people have expressed them
selves as to their cnoice, and got
what they voted for. At least a
portion Of them expressed them
selves, and those who staid at
home, have no kick coming.
While the saloons were supposed
to have been closed, there were
several on the streets W h o
showed the effect Of the proxi-
nifty of the flask.
The vote in Estancia was not
as heavy as it should have been,
the voters showing their apathy
by more than a hundred staying
at home and letting the rest do
the voting, While some whose
names are on the registration
lists have gone away to find en-
ployment, yet it is a fact that
over on hundred names of
voters are on the books who are
here, but failed to comeNout and
vote. The vote was divided be-
tween seventy-eight straight
democratic ballots, twenty seven
straight republicans, t ir t y
straight socialist, and n e
hundred an d twenty one
scratched. I h G number Of
scratched ballots shows that the
people care more for the candi-
dates for whom they poll their
votes, than for the party.
With the exception of a few
precincts, the ballots were more
or less scratched throughout,
Mcintosh, Lasater and Smith
being the favorite candidates.
Outside Of Pinos Wells and Ia
jiquee precincts, Mcintosh and
Lasater ran q very pretty race.
The Tajique returns recall the
election Of 1905, when all dem
ocratic ballots were discarded
in that precinct by the judges,
on the plea that the democratic
ballot had not been registered by
anyone in that precinct.
The republican candidates
have been elected, and it is now
up to them to make good on
their promises Of popular legis-
lation, made by the candidates
during the campaign. The can
didates are in t h e peculiar
position Of having been elected
on a platform which had been
turned down by the convention,
and one which the voters expect
them to make good.

On another page this morning Ne print in full the remarks of Delegate Cunningham Tuesday even' ing in defense of the constitution just framed in Phoenix. MT. Gun ninstam doubtless speaks for the Cochise county delegation, and Of course they are entitled to be heard As newspaper, the Re view win treat al! sides of the question fairly, and will take pleas ure ih doing so- MT. Cunningham g explanation takes in every phase ot the convention work and will be read with interest. It is needless to say, however. that if the consti- tuition fails to bring statehood no amount of explanation will appease Arizona. The people want statehood, and that is the only thing that win satisfy them That will be the only test of the conventions work.
