The present week is looked for
ward 20 with apprehension by some
of the senatorial aspirants ard with
considerable interest by everyone else
for it Is undoubtedly true that this
week viii show whether the confer
ence OF the Repubilesn legislators
last week. Is going TO prove success
/ ful IN the rule OF The olive branch 10
the house ana likewise, the senatorial
candidates are going 20 match
strength harder than ever
Several iuntas were held over sun
day. Just what they were for or what
they accomplished Is as much q mys-
terry az the man IN the moon for
there never was legislature In New
Mexico where the things that count
were more tightly sewe6 up than dur
/ ing the present session. II is only
when some member lets out q war
whOOp and gets angry that some Of
Z the situations come 10 light and as
for the changing eacL day in the sen
IatOrial ballOring, the man who could
| forecast g. would be able 20 reap a
harvest II he could find any takers.
! To all appearances today, the sen.
IatOrial situation is about as badly
scrambled as it was a week ago. IL h
/ doubtful even. II the candidates them
selves, could tell their strength prior
TO each days hallctng and within an
| hour thereafter.
National Committeeman Solomon
Luna left Saturday for his ranches IN
Socorro county but will return this
afternoon. Other members Of the
leXecutive committee went away over
Sunday all declaring they were com
! ing back today \ number OF legisla-
tors also left the city
! The very fact that the Republican
Executive committee-an organiza-
ton formed in the lass campaign-- TO
direct the party organization, Is tax
/ ing so active a part In the senatorial
situation. Is proof enough that NO two
candidates have lead pipe cIncn on
ELECTION. Judge Falls friends say that
he has gained strength steadily and
that he never has had any fear OF
the outcome.
r. b Catron today declined to dis
cuss his strength further than to say
that developments TO date had been
! favorable TO him he believed and that
he was certain they had not hurt
/ him AIR. CatrOn said that II certain
developments took place In the next
few days, he might have "A communi
cation for the press that at least
would be interesting but that for the
present he had nothing to give out
| Regarding his recent troubles with
Speaker Baca, he said there was
nothing for him TO add.
Chief interest over Sunday centered
In the activity of the Democrats who
apparently feel encouraged In a be-
lief that they can aid In precipitating
a scrap between the Republican
forces and By uniting with progress
sive members, get at least one OF the
/ senatOrslnps. Last week, they con-
iidently hoped for a breach In the
house and that at the proper time.
they would wrest control Of that body
from the Republicans. II the Repub-
licans however, have really patched
Iup their differences then the hope on
the part OF the Democrats is lost.
The arrest of four house members
| for alleged bribery, Is still more 4
matter of conversation among the
Legislators than Is generally known.
In fact. until the four men have had
a complete hearing and the house
comes down 10 vote ON their eXpul'
sion OF retention. no one Is going 10
know just what the sentiment among
some members really is.
Likewise. there Us another place
which the Democrats hope 20 hit
with a flying wedge II those four
members are excluded from the
house, the Democrats hope I'm a spe-
clal election, to secure the return of
four Democrats from Taos and Rio
Arrba counties and their chances OF
doing so will d@pend upon the un-
known sentiment m those counties.

cody. ~ am showing some of 'em a
lpretty good vote, he said for a man
who was counted ous of the race be-
fore o ballot had been cast. The fell
lows are sticking by me pretty close.
