Will Not Engage in Politics.
The board refused TO take action
on resolution to endorse E. B. Da-
vies for district attorney, not that
it was unfriendly TO Mr.. Davies but
that it desired to steer clear of a poll
cy that is bound to wreck any COM
mercial organization. For the same
reason, a resolution to appoint COM
mittee to consult with similar COM
mittees of other organizations upon
the adyisability of calling a mass
meeting to nominate a non-partisan
municipal ticket, was tabled, after
animated debate in which the desire
of the members for a business city ad-
ministration was very pronounced but
it was advocated that the proper place
and time to give emphasis to such de-
sire was at the primaries.
interesting Points.
Several interesting points were
brought out during the evenings dis
Ono ic hot al
son of Minnesota has taken a firm
stand against such encroachment on
territorial or state water rights as that
of the reclamation service tying up
the waters of the Rio Grande, and that
Secretary of the Interior Ballinger is
friendly to New Mexico in its conten-
ton that its waters should not be tied
up unnecessarily by any reclamation
project 1t was also shown that wat
er rights on the San Juan tied up by
the reclamation service on account of
the building of dam in the Colorado
at Yuma, had been thrown open to
filings after vigorous protests, by Sec
retary of the Interior Ballinger re-
voking the absurd order. Another
point made was that the revenues of
the city of Santa Fe would be much
larger and more satisfactory for mu-
nicipal purposes in the future and that
more care must be exercised in their
expenditure in order to attain the
best results. The citizens who stay
away from the meetings of the Board
of Trade, to which all are invited, are
simply missing connection with live
wire.
