Editor FL .Paso Herald;
have read with interest, In your
issue Of Saturday last a communica-
ton from Col Eli Newsom. regarding
the Aathony-Las Cruces road This
communication charges that the ad-
ministratiOn Of the work so far done
on this road was animated by "a self
1shness born of political mlsmanage-
ment," and its stated purpose is TO
compel this $1,000 (nOw available) 10
be expended at once, as promised
feel sure that Col NeWsom, when
he penned these remarks, was writing
without a fun knowledge Of the WOrk
that has been done on this road IN
the past few years. Inls WOrk con-
sists of three distinct and separate e1-
forts First. the expenditure Of about
$1,000 TO do the necessary Work OF
opening up the new road, clearing ana
ErubbinE the ground. and. in part
guarding the right Of way. The second
expenditure was to build two miles
OF gravel surfaced road at Mesllla
Park at a cost OF about $500. The
third expenditure is the $1,000 recently
contributed equally by county ana
state for the purpose or improving the
road between Mesilla Park and Nado.
This work started last Thursday; ana
is now being prosecuted vigorously
Now with a total expenditure or
$4,000 or less. we have I'm the past
two years or so transformed the 80
miles between DOna Ana and Anthony

wilderness TO a comparatively good
road. ANY one familiar with the con-

So far as the charge of political mis-
management-wfich is only another
term for gratis concerned, I wish to
say that, being familiar with the work
and expenditures on this DOna Ana
Anthony road, from start to finish, there
is no ground for such charge. The
funds were secured largely and in
equal proportion from the county and
from the state, aided by very liberal
contributions from citizens of the
county. The entire expenditures have
been made under the direction Of the
state good roads commission The
funds have been expended wisely ana
in the most economical way. Weekly

1t is easy to criticise. to cry graft"
and TO point out where mistakes nave
been made. But taken as a whole, 1
believe that any unbiased person who
will look over the DOna-Ana Anthony
road today. compare IT with the con-
ditions existing three years ago, and
consider the comparatively small eN-
pense incurred, will admit that we
have received splendid value for the
money expended The work has been
done in a manner that is absolutely
free from graft, businesslike and eff
cient.
Mr.. Smiths experience came from
taking the wrong road. 1t IS neces-
sary at present TO take a cutoff Of one
mile OF so and 60 round the Brazito

THE THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT.

Some Of the leading Republican
newspapers are making. a great mis-
take in attempting to belittle the
so-called third party movement.
Even the Taft managers themselves,
realize the seriousness of the situa-
ton. and do not hesitate to say that
the outlook Is anything but ncour
aging. While a third party is gem
orally unpopular with the rank and
ale of the people 1t is surprising to
note how many there are who do not
hesitate to declare themselves in
sympathy with the Roosevelt move
ment and openly state that they in
tend to vote the progressive ticket
at the coming election.
When it Ia realized that Theodore
Roosevelt, with comparatively little
organization behind him, went out
In the recent primary campaign and
beat the regular Republican ma
chine to a standstill in practically
every state where the Republican
party accounts for anything, 1t must
be admitted that Roosevelt Is a an
didate to be reckoned with at the
coming election. He has thousands
of admirers In every state who have
every confidence In him and who are
ready to follow him wherever he
may lead. His third party move
ment injected into the campaign this
fall will give the old-time political
f~orecasters something really worth
while to reckon with.
But the Republicans are not the
only ones to be concerned about the
third party. The Democrats, every
thing else being equal, are in a min
ority taking the country as a whole.
Even such a loyal Democratic news
paper as the New York World ad-
mits thai in order to have the Dem
ocrats win they must get thousands
of Republican votes. While there is
no doubt that Wilson will receive
many of these this fall, 1t Is equally
true he will not receive nearly as
many as he would have got had
Roosevelt not launched the third
party.
