with slate would be promptly drop

impossible to make any forecast.
There is some sentiment against NOM
mating anyone for congress thereby
giving H. B. Ferguson, the demo-
cratic candidate, wide open field and
centering the campaign upon the
Roosevelt electors, making an ener-
getic fight for them and not com
plicate the situation with local can
didate. Those advocating this plan
believe that the old guard republican
machine will be completely routed
from the start and the Taft electors
will not even be in the running.
Led by band, the cheering dele
gates this afternoon marched to the
Elks' opera house where they posed
for their pictures before several cam
eras. 1t was an impressive sight.
They carried county banners and ev-
cry one wore big red bandana around
his hat. There were a number of
women in the crowd After the pic
lures were taken they entered the
opera house where Chairman Otero
called the convention to order. Rev.
J. |. Seder, of Las Vegas, offered an
invocation. Secretary Prichard then
read the call, George w. Armijo act
ing as interpreter.
In a stirring speech, Chairman Otero
made the issues in the new party and
as he mentioned the name of Theodore

Albuquerque, n. NJ, Sept. 10.-To'
day it's Theodore Roosevelt in Albu'
querque and the call of the Bull
Moose is heard on all sides while the
red bandana is worn by several hun
dred delegates to the progressive
state convention which met in the
Elks' opera house at o'clock this at
ternoon.
And it is a big convention-just as
big and just as enthusiastic as the
democratic convention held here yes
terday. There is absolute harmony
ard the indications are that the ses-
SONS will be held without a single
breach between the delegates. The
convention today makes it apparent
that the coming campaign is between
the democratic and the Roosevelt ell
ectors and that the Taft men are out
of the running. The stand pat con-
vcntion might just as well not be
held. w. Fl. Gillenwater, the well
known Bernalillo county leader, was
this morning named as member of
the executive committee and will lead
in the fight throughout the state this
falul. In addition to headquarters at
Santa Fe it is the plan to open head
quarters also. in Albuquerque in order
to better cover the state. w. F. Bro
gan, in charge of the publicity work,
will conduct his part of the campaign

forth between the two headquarters.
Nominations will probably not be
made until tonight as the convention

DEMOCRATS STILL
IN MINORITY
SAYS HlLLES

New York, Sept. 10.-Chairmar
Hilles, of the republican national com
mittee, expressed himself as greatly
pleased with the Maine returns.
THE Maine returns,' he said, "fol
lowing so closely upon the republican
victory in Vermont, show conclusive
ly that the democratic party is still
the minority party and that those
contending that the republican party
has lost it's grip upon the voting pub
liz are badly mistaken.
TAFT ALSO PLEASED.
Beverley, Mass, Sept. 10.-Presi
dent Taft was so pleased today with
the republican victory in Maine tina,
he forgot about his lame ankle and
went out to play golf. He was es
pecially cheerful when he learned that
the Maine legislature will be republi.
can on joint ballot, assuring his party
of another vote in the U. s. Senate.
Although the president had no state
ment to make about the Maine re-
suit, his friends here were not so
reticent According to their views the
result will serve to keep III line many
republicans who we're wavering to-
ward the progressives. 1t was an ex-
ample, they said, to the Doubtful
ones of what can be accomplished
where solid front is presented to
the democrats.

made it plain that the new party cared
nothing for old party lines and that
it called upon all to join hands for a
new deal, with the interests of the
people as a working basis and not the
interest of few men of wealth and
power. He was cheered repeatedly.
John Baron Burg member of the leg
islature from this county, was elected
temporary chairman and Colonel Bron.
son M. Cutting of Santa Fe was
elected temporary secretary. The con-
vention then named it's committees
and recessed pending their report
There will be a session which prob
ably will last most of the night. Jesus
Romero and Marcus C. de Baca are
prominently mentioned for permanent
chairman and one or the other will
probably be selected. For permanent
secretary the name of James Baca, of
Santa Fe, Mr.. Taylor OF Las Cruces,
and w. F.. Brogan of Santa Fe, and
several others are mentioned The
Santa Fe delegation held caucus
this morning and voted to support Mr..
Brogan, Mr.. Baca agreeing to with

In powerful address, John Baron
Burg this afternoon scored the old re-
publican machine and urged the dele
gates to support the new party as the
one method for righting conditions in
this state and in the nation. He was
given an enthusiastic reception and
frequently was interrupted by ap-
pause.

ARMED MEXlCANS
SCARE WOMEN

Lordsburg, N. NJ, Sept. 10.-Mrs j.
T. Muir and Mrs. S. ]. Mitchell resid.
ing on ranches south Of here near the
Mexican line, were brought here this
morning in automobiles by local citi-
zens, who went to their ranch hom. :
last night in response to appeals .Or
assistance. The women whose hus-
bands are absent, telephoned. to Lords
burg that armed Mexicans had appear
ed on the ranch in a large band. When
the Lordsburg men arrived, the Mexi-
cans had departed, but the women
were brought here for safety.
The citizens believe the band of
men consisted of rebel deserters rath-
er than raiders, for they did not mo-
lest anything on the American side of
the line.
