candidates for. congress are out on the
stump and at work.
In making their attack upon the use
Of the straight party lever' for the
voting machines the Polk county dem :.
ocrats raised one point which 1T would
seem is hard to get over. There are a
number OF Incorporated towns in the
county in which town. assessors are
elected, but voting at the general cleo
ton in these. towns is consolidated with
the townships Immediately surround
ing. The county auditor proposes to
lock up the straight party lever on
the machines in these towns, but that it
still be left so >that voters in these
towns may vote for assessors in the
township surrounding Under ordinary
this would be by means
OF separate ballot. This is not pos
sible on the machine. Hence the claim
is made that at least opportunity is
given for voters to cast illegal votes
without detection. The court will have
to pass on this phase OF the case as
well as the general proposition Of leav-
ing the party lever on machines
In order to induce the voters to come
out to attend meetings the county
committee has resorted to Offering the
inducement of a fried chicken supper
as bonus. 1t worked all right the
other night for rally at Enterprise
and Oralabor, a colored mining camp.
1t was said to beat brass band and
to be just as cheap. At any rate 1t
worked with the colored contingent A
question was raised as to whether or
not fried chicken could be classed as
valuable so as to bring the case under
the inhibition of the law as to bribery
of voters. But the meeting was adj
dressed by all the candidates for dis
trict judge. so it is believed that ques-
ton will not prove embarrassing

NR. B4LFOCR'S STRATEGY.

Mr. Balfour at his best is a good pO-
litical strategist. He plays the game
with his cards on the table, exposed for
his opponents to see. Challenged. he con-
cedes the point. and by so doing wins
two points. He entered this campaign
with a protest against the unconcealed
intention Of the Irish to compel the gov
ernment iii case of its success, to carry
through Home Rule bill despite
the Lords and without any direct ap-
peal 10 the people on the subject There
should be referendum on so grave
constitutional question, he said. But
Won tariff reformers would rush through
a protective tariff bill if you could, re-
piled the CObdenites- Why don't you
propose a referendum on that: \ less
accomplished leader would have sought
excuses and would have striven to show
wherein il was consistent TO demand
referendum in one case and not III the
other. Not so AIr. Balfour. \ tariff
referendum: Certainly. he replies; that
is precisely what L want.
This is doubly shrewd. IN the first
nlace it is a complete retort TO the
enemy and ii greatly strengthens his
protest against the Home Rule scheme
and prepareS the way for stubborn re-
Sistance TO il III case it is attempted.
The opposition may not be successful
RJt at least Mr.. Balfour will have put
the Uni0nist party on record rs pro-
testing consistently against a constitu-
tional change for which the nation has
not given Il specific mandate. Then, in
the second place. he has unified the
Unionist party as he could have done in
no other way. That party is in the main
in favor OF tariff reform. Bur there IS a
and respectable minority Of
II. renresented by The Spectator which
is still loyal TO Cobdenism and which
wouId be i'll at ease in a campaign
against free trade These Cobdenite
Tnionists might be lukewarm in the
present campaign if they thought that
I-nioilfst success would mean the rush
ing through of IA protective tariff bill
without further mandate from the peo-
ME. But Mr. Balfour completely re-
assures them by making ii clear that he
has no such intention. being ready to re-
nit that question TO the Judgment of the
electors in a campaign in which ii shall
be the issue.
IT is one of the anomalies of the
present campaign that thus the Union

IN pEFENcE OF NEW MEXICO,

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | have observed articles in Eastern
newspapers derogatory to New MEXICO
am sure that these articles have been with
out any direct intention of misstating facts
or of injuring the new state. but neverthe-
less they are misstatements and do as
much harm as though made with malicious
design.
It is true that New Mexico lies in the
arid belt and contains much land that Is
and always will be desert, but it must not
be forgotten that New Mexico equals the
combined areas of the six New England
states together with New Jersey, Maryland.
Delaware and West Virginia. The new
state contains a number of high mountain
ranges upon which snow and rain fall in
great quantities This precipitation affords
sufficient water to irrigate properly large
portion of the state. 1t needs only men and
capital to make it one of the most produc-
tive agricultural regions in the Union.
There are few states that have the min
eral resources of New Mexico. Colfax
County alone. according to government
estimates, contains thirty billion tons of
high grade domestic, coking and steam
coal, which can be produced at a very
slight expense.
The mountains ranges are covered with
high grade timber, abound in game and
fish and afford some of the finest scenery in
America It will be only a few years until
they become one of the great pleasure
grounds of the nation.
