Not So Non Partisan
IS Some Might Think

Hb 9 fact apparent to nearly all
tnat the so-called non-partisan
movement has spent more money
and worked more politics in the past
month than has been spent or worked
in all the judicial elections since
statehood, and while the nominees
on the non-partisan ticket are travel
ling around the state asking for
votes. the present judges who have
been nominated by the Republican
party for reelection are at work in
Olympia. They are not only keep
ing the judiciary out of politics but
are keeping out of it themselves.
In checking up the present SUI
preme court judges it was found
that they were anything but "cor-
poration controlled" as they have
upheld not only the railroad COM
mission, the eight-hour law and
other measures opposed by corpora
tions, but have also been supporters
of all progressive legislation.
OF the non-partisan ticket, Will
liam Il. Moore, of Seattle. has been
a professional politician for fourteen
years and has always had the sup
port Of j. D. Farrell who represents
the Hartman interests in Washing
ton, and Moore delivered the
goods and earned this support
when member of the state senate
in 1903 he bitterly opposed and
voted against the railroad commits
sion law. In Hubbell's Legal Di-
rectory for 1910, w. w. Tolman, Of
Spokane. advertises that he is a
corporation lawyer" and in the
same publication Charles E. Shep-
ard, Of Seattle, sets forth. that he is
a specialist in corporation law"
Preston M. Troy, of Olympia, is at
torney for the Olympic Light &
Power Co., which owns the street
railway, and has been very success
full ~ defending personal injury
cases. But little is known Of Hans
Bugge. of Bellingham, as he was
admitted to the bar only FIVE years
ago and has not developed any par
ticular line of practice. Bugge,
however, is taking a very active
part in the campaign and is sending
out letters to prominent Christian
Scientists saying that he does not
think this should influence them in
voting for him, yet he never over
looks the opportunity Of enclosing
his card announcing Things are
looking alright. "

on tuesday Of last week paid a splen-

claring that he hoped the people of

| Of state senator for which he is now

The Alamogordo news. (Alamogordo, N.M.) 1899-1912, 1910-12-22
JOHN A. M'kAY DIED
SUNDAY MORNING
Complication Of Nervous Troubles
Cause Of Death
THE MASONIC BODIES
CONDUCT FUNERAL

John 4. Mckay, forthree years
a prominent citizen of Alamogor-
do, died early Sunday morning.
at the Alamogordo Hotel. Mr..
Mckay was seventy two years of
age. aud had been iG such wretch
ed health for several munths that
his death was not surprise. The
funeral service was conducted in
the parlors Of the Alamogordo
Hotel at half past two o'clock
MOnlay afternoon. Mr.. Mckay
was thirty second degree Mason,
and the funeral service was in
charge of the Masonic bodies.
lnterment was made in Alamo
cemetery.
The McKays came to Alamo
gOrdo in December of 1907, aud
bought the Alamogordo hotel
property. Finding that his health
demanded a change of climate,
Mr.. Mckay sold the property in
June, 1909, and went to southern
California. Finding no relief,
he tried several other states,
then finally returned to Alamo
gordo last summer, when his
sons Perry and John, again took
charge of the hotel. A wife, and
the two sons, Perry and John,
and a daughter. Mrs. Maud
Brooks, and Mrs. q. l.. Seymour,
of Duncan, Okla, are the i'm
mediate members of the family
upon whom the blow falls with
the greatest force.
He was a fine old gentleman,
genial, affable, cordial. Tall,
soldierly in bearing and of COM
manding presence, his was a
striking figure even after the
.-erciless years had brought a
droop to the shoulders, and a re-
lentless malady had robbed life
Of its joy.
