FIRST SThTE
FA|R BEGINS
OCTOBER 5

Albuquerque, N. M. Sept.
IA, Preparations are now go.
ing forward rapidly for the
Thirieth Annual New Mexico
State Fair, to be held in AL
buquerque, October 8 to IA
The diagram for the electric
lighting of the streets during
Fair week shows that the il
Elimination this year will be
greater than ever before. The
race track at the Fair grounds
is being placed in first class
condition and the going will
be fast. The baseball diamond
has been rolled and graded
and is ready for the ball play
ers. W. B. Weaver, of the
Western League, one of the
most efficient umpires in the
business, will be arbitrator
for the baseball tournament.
Eugene B. Ely, one of the
most famous of the Curtiss
aviators, has been selected to
make the aviation flights.
Accompanied by many chiefs
and medicine men, a baud of
Navajo Indians from the
wilds of the Navajo reserva-
ton in northwestern New
Mexico will soon gegin an
overland march to Albuquer
que, and take a prominent
part at the fair in races and
fire dances. OF interest to the
women at the Fair will be the
"Woman's Department, and
the many exhibits are to be
of such interest that the lad
les will probably decide to
spend all their spare time in
the Woman's building. The
running. trotting and pacing
events promise to be one Of
the chief attractions for the
men. The Nat Reiss Carnival
Company with some thirty
shows will furnish much
amusement for the young
sters and incidentally for the
older people. The various
Masonic orders, the Redmen,
the Knights of Pythiar, the
Travelling Men, and many
other commercial and frater.
nal organizations will be in
session during Fair week. The
politicians will gather from
all corners of the new state.
The agricultural and horticul-
tural exhibits will attract
many homeseekers and the
man and the town on the
job with an exhibit will get
the new settlers. Altogether
the Fair promises to be a re-
cord breaker. One fare rates
ON all railroads assures a very |
large attendance.

PROGRESSIVE
REPUBLICANS
ORGANIZING

Santa Fe, N. M, Sept. IL. AT
One of the largest and most en-
thusiastic local political gather.
ings ever held in the city of Santa
Fe, the progressive republicans
of the city met tonight and passed
a set of ringing resolutions scor-
ing the old gang, and the men
who depend for political prefer
ment upon their ability to buy
votes, and to deliver the goods,
The resolutions declared for the
national progressive principles
insofar as they are applicable to
New Mexico, for the direct elec-
ton of United States senators,
for direct primaries, for an am
endment to the constitution per-
mitting the courts to remove un-
desirable officers and corrupt Of
flee holders without recourse to
the cumbersome, slow and often
ineffective method of impeach-
ment, for a corrupt practices act,
and for a campaipn fund pub
licity enactment.
The resolutions indorsed the
"blue ballot" and called upon all
good Republicans to vote for it.
It declared for party loyalty as
long as the party was controlled
by principles and not by office
seeking politicians, and it called
for the election throughout the
state of incorruptible, competent
business men of executive ability
and integrity. and not those
whose sole claim to dlStlnctlon is
party regularity.
Taking up the situation in Santa
Fe county, the document called
attention to the fact that $40, 900
in taxes must be provided by the
county to make up its share of
the deficiency of $50O,0OO, which
had been saddled upon the whole
of New Mexico by the very men
who were seeking to continue the
control Of the functions of govern
ment in the new commonwealth,
A reiteration of the desire of the
members of the meeting, as hon.
est and straightforward Repub-
licacs, to work for the success of
the party that has made a re-
united nation possible, but calling |
for men whom the spoils of Office
can not taint, and whose sole OBJ
ject in accepting the franchises
of their fellow citizens is service
and not bosship, closed the reso-
lutions.
An enthusiastic and unanimous |
endorsement of the resolutions |
was then given, Another meet
ing will be held Friday night to |
select committees and organize |
for work in the county of Santa
Fe. Tee prospects for the pro-
gressives, as a result of the meet
ing, are much brighter than the
most sanguine expected prior to
thd gathering. and a strong cam
paign will be made to send to the
state convention at Las Vegas a
solid progressive delegation,
pledged to work for the interest
Of the people and not at the be-

A new CUTTER

With mantle of snow on the ground
on the roofs, on the chimney tops, and
every place ii could get and with the
city looking like Moscow Danzig Nom
treal or some other northerly point
Judge William Westergren of Miller
seated in a sleigh drove into Gary last
night ane added a touch of realism 10
the wintry scene already presented
The judge sported a brand new cut
ter which he bought in Hobart His
fiery mount which he uses to navigate
through the sand dunes was the pro.
polling power for the vehicle. Attach
ed to the harness were the usual sleigh
tells and when the Miller jurist passed
down Broadway people ran out of their
stores thinking that the Knots camp
were celebrating because of good news
from Valparaiso
Along with the Judge were two
friends and &c rabbits the latter which
he brought up for his friend George
ODonnell. who runs the Oyster Ocean
buffet in South Broadway. However
George got but little of the game for
grasping friends of the Judge parted
him from most of the Dummies before
the Wabash tracks were even reached.
