publican and democratic camp in New

New Mexico, moving to earth all

than the great Albuquerque Morning

HARD TO EXPLAIN

The republican BOSSES, we read IN
a number OF excited democratic news
papers. are dead against the initia-
tive and referendum. We also arc
informed rather breathlessly that the
republican party in B%ernalillo county
is boss ridden, Adding together two
and two. the result is supposed to
be four; l. q, the republican party
in Bernaiillo county ig against the in
itiative and referendum to the last
ditch.
This is very simple arithmetic. The
problem becomes more complicated
when We find the republican county
convention endorsing the initiative
and the referendum. As the old
fashioned arithmeties used to have it

A Shot at The nnes-

INIEsa. aH
hdltof Morning Journal. Yesterday
q characteristic Albuquerque dog
show occurred and was witnessed by
ABOUT ilfty citizens. on the prominent
central avenue saloon corner. where
usually at the above mentioned time.
many men and boys loiter, a small
bulldog downed a smaller dog, and
with jaws clenched around the little
under dogs" throat, was rapidly
crunching him to death. No one stir
red himself to interfere. Finally, a
lady came along, stepped promptly in
to the obacco smeared gutter, firmly
grasped the bull by his three inch
remnant of a tail, raised him in the
air, both dirty dogs swinging violently
against her immaculate white dress,
the under dog dangling from the
mouth of the bun, until shaken loose
by the ladyis forceful if not graceful
gestures. The men and boys on the.
corner looked disappointed and pain
ed, presumably realizing that an inter-
esting free dog fight had been cut
short. The writer witnessed this
common affair from a second story
window in the neighborhood. our city
official, whose business it is to look
after the dogs of our town, has for
many months been in an iron cage in
the county jail in old Albuquerque,
because, we believe, he shot off a gun
within the city limits in trying tol
capture q dog. All this in Albuquor-,
que the largest and a very ambitious
city in the soon to ba state Of New
Mexico. For its size, Albuquerque is
as notorious for its dogs as is Con-
stantinople. With the tourist popu-
lation our dogs are ever a fertile
theme of conversation and cores
pondence. A few years ago, a tour
list who spent some weeks in Albu-
q%uerque, showed me a newspaper
from an eastern city, in which was q
column and a half letter from Albu-
querque written by said tourist. in

Democratic papers in certain sec

the creation of some new counties by

The difference

In discussing the initiative and ref
erendum, you cant get away from
the fact that our present system pro-
vides for delibcrative consideration OF
legislative measures, presumably by
men specially qualified for the work
and paid to devote their time to IT.:
while the direct legislation system
proposed by a strong element in each
territory provides Tor the enactment
or destruction Of laws by perhaps r.
small percentage of qualified voters,
without much more consideration
than can be had while standing in
the voting booth marking the ballot.
