JUST A WORD OR TWO
TO LUNA Co. VOTERS
Everybody Deeply Interested
in the Outcome Of Tues
days election.
CANDIDATES LIVELY
Voters are Giving Careful
Attention to Public Affairs
and Candidates

Next Tuesday, the qualified elect.
ors Of Luna county will vote at the
first state election, and II behooves
every voter to give the matter seri.
ous consideration.
1t is the greatest Importance ia
every citizen, irrespective Of party,
that at this first state election the
Republican party should triumph
because the issues on which the
campaign is being fought out will
determine whether New Mexico Is
to organize a stable government,
based on equal rights to all, or
whether the new state shall be
launched upon her first administra.
ton with new and untried ideas,
with her constitution open to
amendment at every whim Of a
handful of the minority and with
labor seeking employment and capi-
tai afraid to invest within our bor-
ders.
1t is a serious matter to New
Mexico that with the advent of
statehood there should also come an
influx of people, of capital, and
above all. u feeling Of confidence
thruout the nation that the body
polite in our state is not radical,
not narrow, not prejudicial
to capital or labor, and above all
not swayed by political hysteria
which of all thing means an unset
tied state Of government, idlenes'
for our working people, hard times
for our business men and timidity
on the part of capital seeking legiti
mate investments in our state.
A handful of muck-rakers have
attempted to assail the character Of
Hon. II. o. Bursom, but theil
charges have fallen fiat. Mr.. Bur
SONS public and private caree1
stands above reproach. He wa
left alone in the world, pennies
and homeless, at the age Of twelve
years and has risen by his owl
efforts to his present political emin
ence. Hard work, a square deal
self denial and perseverance, hav'
been his stepping stones.
The balance of the state ticket !

competent to perform the duties o
their respectivs Offices in a manne
that will reflect credit on the ne'
state.
The supreme court nominees, on
own Judge Frank w. Parker, Ed

bench need no Introduction to Lun

It would be almost a public ca
