women from Belen, Magdalena and

to join in the final tribute to Mr..
Luna.
Never in the history of Albuquer-
que has sach universal mourning been
seen, as at the funeral of Mr.. Luna to-

of Mr. Luna wept like children. The
funeral cortege was the biggest ever
seen here.

Henderson, KY, Sept. 2.-Replying
to Co'onel Roosevelt's st. Johnsbury,
VT, speech, in which the Sherman
antitrust law and the Stanley Steel
investigation committees recommen-
dations in regard thereto were criti-
cized, Representative Stanley, chair
man of the committee, issued a long
statement last night declaring 'the

the Sherman act' and that Chairman
of the committee has repeatedly said
the Sherman law, of and by itself, is
not sufficient to remedy existing
evils"

enforced by republican administra-

At Stamford, Col. Roosevelt said:
.'If any progressive candidate is
elected and fails to live up to amy
promise he makes I'll take the stu:ap
against him. Our candidates will
live up to their platforms"
A man in the crowd shouted deri-
sively and Colonel Roosevelt turned
on him. II don't wonder you call
out" he said. 1.-The old parties had
a way of making promises and not
keeping them. We are going to keep
faith with the people. We stand for
applied honesty. We stand for action.
We will live up to every promise we

Col. Roosevelt here stated his posi-

Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 2.-Governo
Woodrow Wilson today analysed th
third party platform in its relation
to the laboring man. The occasion o
his speech was q laipT day celebra
tion under the auspices OF the United
Trades and labor council
1t was the first expression from the
democratic candidate on the merits
of. the progressive platform. The gov
ernor said that while one hand to be
found, warm sympathy with practi
cally every project of social better
ment" that part was merely pro
clamation of sympathy while the
real program lay elsewhere where
the tariff and the trusts are spoken
or"
The governor assailed the minimum
wage idea, declaring that employers
would take occasion to bring their
wage scale as nearly as they could
down to the level of the minimum
permitted by law.
With the idea of a federal commits
sion to regulate monopoly, the gov
ernor took emphatic issue. He de-
ciared that the plan suggested not
only would realize monopoly, but give
the chief employers of the country
a tremendous authority behind
them" What the employers do will
have the license of the federal gov
ernment, including the right to pay
wages approved by the government,
but that it always had Dcen policy
OF "the masters of consolidated in
dustries' to undermine organized Ia
Dor in great many ways and that
plan of federal control as advocated
by the new party" Systematically sub
ordinates working men to monopo-
les and looks strangely like eco
nomic mastery over the very lives
and fortunes of those who do the
daily work of the nation"
Governor Wilson said in part:
Intelligent workingmen will ask
the men now seeking their votes what
they may be expected to do for them.
r do not mean for them separately
but what they may be expected to DO
for the country which will entitle
them to the confidence of those who
perform the daily labor which lies at
the bases of all our life.
Most of the answers they get will
turn upon the question Of tariff duties
from which our politics never seem
able to get away On the one hand
hey will be told that if the democratic
party gets into power they may look

It may safely be taken for granted
hat democrats are not going to de-

predictions come both

Two striking features of the bi
monthly luncheon and meeting OF the

on advertising and How to Do IT,"

president of the chamber Of com
merce, calling on the merchants of
San Diego to wake up and show

Although delicious viands We're
served and the service was prompt
and courteous, the attendance at the
luncheon suggested a lack of human
interest" though Labor Day 'linrers
at home may have been responsible

building up the "Ad Club" of Des

ed the fundamental and material

speaks of the Ancient City. His ad-
dress was listened to with rapt atten-
ton and at the conclusion he was
warmly applauded. The address will
be published in full in the New Mex

For the sole purpose of impeaching a
Judge Of the Circuit court, Governor Will
liam E. Glasscock has been asked to as
semble the State Legislature in extraor-
binary session. The jurist against whom
serious charges are filed is Judge William
r. Bennett, OF Fayette county, recently
renominated in the Republican primary
of that county. A petition signed by
numerous citizens OF Fayette county was
filed with the State executive charging
Judge Bennett with corruption, gross i'm
morality and incompetency. Specific
allegations are made in support of all the
charges. Judge Bennett is charged with
receiving presents and cash, and, while
presiding over the Pocahontas County
Circuit Court, he is charged with having
made an improper proposal to Penn
sylvania woman, whose brother was on
trial charged with felony. Four we'll
known State lawyers presented the peti-
ton to Governor Glasscock. They were
R. T. Hubbard, Jr., and Charles w. Dillon,
of Fayetteville, and Senator George E..
Price and former Governor William NJ.
o. Dawson, of Charleston. Messrs.
Hubbard and Dillon are from Benefits
home town. Ten days ago Dillon, who
was candidate for the Republican NOM
ination for Governor. knocked Judge
Bennett down when the latter took ex-
ceptions to petition Dillon filed in the
Supreme Court and called Dillon a liar.

THE Democratic State Committee last
week passed a resolution calling upon
Governor Glasscock to require Hon. J.
S. Lakin to resign as member of the
State Board of Control or else give up
his place as chairman of the State Repub-

Board of Control is non-partisan body,
and that Mr.. Lakin has no right to fill a
political position while serving on this
board.
We don't see what Mr.. Lakin wants
with two such jobs at the same time.
Either is sufficient TO turn gray the head
