Democratic ateCathering Here
Next Month to Be Made a
Great Success

! Every person in Santa Fe must
| consider himself and herself a com.
mittee of one to make the Democratic
| State convention which convenes in
/ this city on October 3, great sue
cess. Politics and personalities must
he forgotten in working together to
prove that Santa Fe is the conven-
| ton city par excellence; that there
| is no other town in the southwest that
| can pull off large convention as sat.
isfactorily as the Ancient Capital. And
II Will be the greatest convention that
has ever met in this city. From 500
to 1000 persons will have to be en-
| tertained; special trains will arrive
from the north and the south, and the
Pecos valley, loaded to the guards
with delegates and rooters. 1t is up
to Santa Fe to prove to them that
they are welcome and ought to come
again. Santa Fe has not only repu.
tation for hospitality to maintain, but
it must make new record, if it wants
to get big conventions in the future.
Clovis had raised a thousand dollars
and promised thousand dollars
more, just to get the convention.
Committees Appointed.
! While every one must consider him.
self member of the general commit
tee to extend the glad hand to the Wis.
itors, it was deemed advisable to des-
| ignate certain~committees to organ
ize for the entertainment of the con-
vention. Las Vegas, for instance, has
raised $4,000 to date to entertain the
Republican State Convention and its
committees have already worked out
ia plan of entertainment. Santa Fe
dare not lag behind. It is possible.
in fact. it is likely, that in naming
the committees. many have been
omitted who would have proved a
huge success in boosting for the con.
vention, but some choice had to be
made and therefore the following com.
mittees are announced, with the un.
derstanding that any one has the
right to volunteer and join in the
work of the particular committee in
which he or she is interested.
