WHAT TIE CAMPAIGN ms
SHOWN.

Two things have been clearly DEM
onstratcd 10 the present campaign
first that Sew Mexico has uu idea oi
committing the supreme idIocN 81
turning her government over 60 "a
party pledged 80 the doctrine uf free
wool: and second. that the people OF
this state VIII not accept lying abuse
and hollow hyporsisv M substitute
for political argument.
The frantic efforts Of the Demo-
cratic Leaders 60 avoid any reference
to the tariff policy of their party has
been most noticeable from tho be-
ginning OF the campaign. Il was
evidently their idea that they could
avoid tho embarrassment of facing
their party's pititul record on the
tanff by merely keeping a profound
| silence on IA" subject and making
the air resound with their shrieks az
abuse Of the Republican candidate.
/ In this they We're not unlike an cmi-
ont Southern statesman who, AT the
] beginning OF the civil war. declared
/ that hls people could whip the Yam
/ keee with cornstnlks." A. the con-
| cluson of that memorable struggle,
| when reminded of his previous boast,
| he Contended that ne had been right
that the southern people could
have whipped the Yankees with corn
stalks, hut the Yankees wouldn't
tight with cornstalks.
By refusing TO allow the issues q
become confused. ana by keepinl
clearly before the voters the peril q
the state involved IN the viciou'
Democratic tariff policy, the Repun'
/ ncan party Of Sew Mexico Is nov
assured OF a sweeping victory in th'
approaching election The vile per
sonal abuse that has been hcapcs
