FAREWELL TO
 THE FEE SYSTEM.

If the constitutional convention had done nothing else, it would stin make ten strike with the people b. reason of it's action in abolis,.. ing the fee system in county offices. This alons is almost worth adopt ing the constitution, even if it were otherwise undesirable, says the Al buquerque Journal.
 The fee system in county offices has eaten up more of the taxpayers money than almost anything else. and has enabled officials to line their nests with stacks of our hard earned greenbacks for many years. There has long been dissatisfaction with system which allows men to receive from the public treasury remuneration out of all proportion to the work done or ability required, and a remuneration which the incumbent's natural capabilities would never receive in business life. As in private business, so in official position, let us hire men who can do the work. see that they do it and pay them a fair salary for what they do- Properly utilized, the present fee system enables a mediocre official at present to make himself rich in one term, while the people foot the bill.
 Bernaillo county has seen the evils of the fee system rampant for years Legal technicalities have en- abled officials to frankly violate cam paign pedees in order to satisfy their selfish greed for money. Good, perfectly good coin of the realm, which should be building roads and school houses, has enriched private individuals. The days of official vel. vet are over and Bernalillo county especially congratulates the conven- ton.

LETTER from a girl brings

"A LETTER from girl brings a
 problem which many a young
 - girl and young boy finds ex- ceedingly difficult to solve. Many, too. particularly at this season, are facing it.
 The girl writes that she Is 19 years old and still in the primary grade at schcoi because sickness has interfered "ith her studies. Her parents are poor, earning scarcely enough to keep the hcme together. She feels she ought to help. but her mother is anxious that she go on with her studies. She wants to know what is tie Tight thing to do. quit school and go To earning living and so help her parents. or continue her studies, eIhe mother is right in desiring lore education for her daughter. The daughter. too. is right in desir- ,Ls to help her parents now that she Is no longer a child Both. though seemingly looking at the question rem exactly opposite sides. are right.
 The mother. poor, overworked. harassed, as she Is, knows that the better education her daughter has. the better living she will be able 10 earn. the more life will yield her In Its every phase And for this end. she is willing to sacrifice her self for her daughters future.
 And she is quite right. In these days of keen competition and over. crowded ranks of workers. the bet ter education, the better mental train ing. the broader outlook on life, a worker has. the more he will earn. the more quickly he will forge ahead. Native ability is much, but native ability coupled with a good education IS more. And this today. workers by the thousands have. The girl or boy without the education must fall 10 the rear. At any rate. they have a heavy handicap.
 Yet on the other hand. 1t is quite right that this girl should help her since their circumstances are such as she describes- But with
Bisbee daily review., 1910-11-16

only a primary school education, not many positions are open to her. Her penmanship Is probably poor. her arithmetic and spelling scarcely worth considering. It means she must get something to do with her hands, possibly some sort of factory go.k
 But this does not mean she need never advance. The thing for this girl to do. or any girl or boy like her. Is to study at night. It means hard work, a steady grind. gritttng of the teeth and sticking But it is the only thing to do if one ever hopes to get away from low-paid and pn pleasant labor. c
 certain girl, who because of her lack education could find nothing to do but folding circulars at three dollars and half a week was ad. sised to go to n.ght-ciasses and study She did. A few years after, the wo- man who had advised this course, met her. and discovered a bright, alert girl with . good bookkeeping position. and happy as a lark be- cause of her changed outlook on life. She was still going on with her night studies. because she meant HOW, she said. to get a thorough education.
 By all means get an education, no matter how hard you must work to secure it. It will Hit you up into the best-payfns positions, the most enjoy able kinds of york. And it will open out life on all eides.
 Since bad health has interfered with this girls studies. she should choose her work with regard to get ting something as healthful as pos sibie. Studying at night will be an extra strain. so she needs to be ex- tremely careful on this point. But 1T she only earns a small salary, 1t Will be of some help to her parents, and by exercising practical good sense and pluck, she can set an edu- cation at the same time.

NOT DEMOCRACY BUT SOCIALISM.

oSi SSSiSIio".
 Some of the political accidents il the constitutional convention a Phoenix pretend to feel aggrievet because the real democratic papers in the territory refuse to follow them in their radicalism. If one is to judge from their talk, they con slider themselves regular democrats and their critics all republicans.
 This newspaper wishes it were true. but it isn't. It is no light matter for a real democratic news paper to take a stand in opposition to a body which claims to be demo cratic. and has assumed the demo- cratic brand Such opposition never essary. in order to uphold demo - ic doctrine, or democratic obliga- tions toward the public. It is harder for democratic news paper to criticise its own party dele gates than it is. apparently, for some of the latter to chase after strange gods. to violate the cardi- nal principles of the party, and join with loud mouthed agitators whose political mission is to dis credit democracy and turn the party over to the reckless excesses of socialism
 Respect for the courts and the law is firmly rooted in democratic doc urine, there to remain as long as there is a democratic party. Also the rights of property are more clearly defined by true democracy than by any other political diyis- ion-not only the rights Of the wealthy but of the poor. The Feeney proposition to legalize boycotts and lawless acts of picketing. was voted down, but it is no credit to a body of men calling themselves democrats that it could have commanded a sin gle vote among them. Not only does such a thing embody socialism run riot, but skirts the border of downright anarchy
 As to the recall of the judiciary, We have already expressed our opin- ion upon the proposition as 1t af- fects all Americans in their rela- tions with the courts. 1t is simply out of the question, from the stand point of all that is best in our government to permit such a thing as the recall of our judges. But when it comes to a question of party doctrine the recail as dp piled to the judiciary is no more democratic than is the system which robs a poor wage earner througf tariff taxes for the benefit of privi legged miilionaires and trusts.
 If the convention at Phoeni. wants to be considered democrati and command the support of demo cratic newspapers and voters, le it be democratic in fact. This news paper appeals from democracy drum
 with socialistic isms to democrac sober.

JOHN E. GILMAN is ELECTED
COMMANDER AFTER sPlR-
TIED CONTEST.
OPPOSE Sl-A-DAY PENSION
Rochester, N. Y, Decided Upon as the
Next Meeting Place if Salts
factory Rail Rates
Are Made.

| Atlantic City, N. J. - John e.
Gilman Of Boston, for commander-in-
chief, and Rochester, n Y, for the
next place of meeting was the win
ming combination in the national en-
campment of the G. A. R. The other
officers elected were:
Senior . vice communicating chief,
Charles Burrows, Rutherford, N. j.;
| junior vice commander-in-chief, Will
| liam James, Jacksonville, Fla; sur
geon general, John L. Smith, Spokane,
| Wash; chaplain-in-chief, Rev. Thorn
as HARDWOOD, Albuquerque, N. M.
The new commander-in-chief had an
easy time of it in his election, but
Rochester's selection as the next en-
campment site has little string to
| it. The veterans decided that the en-
campment can get to the New York
state city on condition that satisfac-
tory rates are secured from the rail
roads, otherwise the executive COM
mittee of the G. A. r. can select an
other city to which reasonable rates
can be secured.
Los Angeles, Denver, and Spring
1 field, ILL.,, also were after the encamp-
ment, and San Francisco invited the
veterans to the Golden Gate city in
/ 1915. When New Orleans heard of
the latter invitation veteran from
! the southern city said the encamp-
ment also would hear from New Or
leans before 1915, the year for the
opening of the Panama canal.
The election of the commander-in-
chief brought up a subject that many
of the veterans hoped would not come
before them. It related to the conduct
of John McElroy of Washington, D. c.,
who was Gilman's opponent for COM
mander-in-chief. When McElroy's
name was presented to the convention
he promptly withdrew it in an earnest
speech. He declared that he had be-
/ come a candidate on the solicitation
1 of thousands Of Grand Army men and
that he had tried to win the honor
fairly But, he continued, he had be-
come the target OF most persistent,
rancorous columnies, falsehoods and
innuendos.
Despit his announced withdrawal
McElroy's friends rallied around him
and insisted upon voting for him. The
! ballot resulted: Gilman, 667; NOEL
roy, 21e.

crowd indicated that the encampment
will be one of the best the civil war

Once again the boys in blue" have

Forty-four states were represented
in the procession and while the pa

other years, there was no end of en-
thusiasm as the veterans marched.
The spectacle was a stirring one.
Every building along the line of march
was draped in national colors and the
sidewalks were massed with people
whose interest did not cease until the
last of the line had passed. Near the
end of the route the parade was re
viewed by Commander Van SAINT. On
