Not report indicates that Mr..
Bebermeyer can succeed in this.
Strenuous and even bitter efforts
have been made to win from Mrs.
Pratt the support of certain ladies
who voted for her at the primaries.
These efforts failed absolutely be-
cause Mrs. Pratt supporters believe
in her and believe MIR. Bebermeyer
should not have prolonged the con-
test.
On the other hand reports indicate
that large number of people who
voted for Mr.. Bebermeyer at the
primaries will not vote for him at
the regular election.
The condition that holds Mrs.
Pratt's followers firm is the same
condition that drives Mr.. Beber-
meyers away from him. A great
many people who voted for him
think the contest should have ended
with his defeat at the primaries.
Had the law not been changed by
the extra session of the legislature
Mr.. Bebermeyer could not have run
after the primaries and of course.
many believe the spirit of the contest
remains unchanged.
Endorsed more than two to one by
the people who know her best, sue
cessful in Mr.. Bebermeyer's home
town. backed by warm admirers and
faithful friends, Mrs. Pratt's victory
seems absolutely certain.

Official Paper of Redwood County
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT

1t is unfortunate that the office of
county superintendent Of schools
should be made the goal of a struggle
intense on one side and more or less
bitter on the other.
H. ]. Bebermeyer has conducted
the office, apparently, as well as he
could. No campaign of criticism has
been made against him so far as The
Gazette is informed.
To certain people the time seemed
right for change and Mrs. Adella
G. Pratt was persuaded to enter the
race. She is a woman of known
ability in the school room and out,
of spotless character and strong per-
sonality. Those who know her best
were most anxious to see her file for
the place.
She flied and almost at once ele-
ments quite apart from the real con-
test and extraneous to the main issue
were indicted into the fight. She
has been called the representative of
this faction and Of that when really
she has lined up with no faction and
counts among her ardentsupporters
representatives of every faction and
religion in the county.
So far as The Gazette is informed
she has never breathed a word of
criticism of Mr.. Bebermeyer's char
acter or motives. She has asked for
support but she asked it on the
ground of ability and qualification.
This support was extended her at
the primaries and she lead Mr.. Beb-
ermeyer by more than $50 votes. In
Redwood Falls she lead him by more
than two to ore.
Immediately following the pri-
malies it was reported that Mr.. Beb-
ermeyer would follow the example
of Chief Justice Start and withdraw.
However through the influence of
certain of his friends Mr.. Beber-
meyer remained in and is now doing
all he can to win from Mrs. Pratt
the fruits of her fight at the primar-
aries.

| it is palpable the argument is worth
less to freedom-loving voters.
Are they true? Ask the visitors
East.
Mills are shut down, men are
tramping the street, women starve
exactly as they have in the Eastern
congested centers during any period
of financial depression.
Taft has not relieved conditions
down there. He has no right to ap-
peal to you for votes on the basis of
relieved conditions.
Don't be fooled by this specious
reasoning. Don'tlet them sting you.
We don't say Taft should have re-
Iieved them, we don't say anyone
could have set these terrible condi-
lions rlgnC.
But we do contend that having
failed he has no right to ask votes
on the basis Of success.
Prosperity waits upon the west
but it has given the poor man in the
East the frosty stare.
Surely President Taft will nothold
himself responsible for the good
crops in this great northwest, for
good prices, for excellent feed and
splendid stock.
Voters of Redwood county, don't
permit yourselves to be st,lng by
statements that are more false than
true, and in the end amount to pure
cajolery and buncumb.

ROOSEVELT AND ANARCHY

Anarchy raised its hand against
the country's first citizen last week.
Anarchy failed to triumph but the
spirit still testers in the wound
against the nation and man.
Freedom, political and personal,
is, must be, misnomer so long as
Anarchy sets its hands upon the in
stitutions of liberty.
Any man, American born, has a
right to aspire to the first Office in
the country, has right to work for
it, to struggle to possess it as often
as he likes.
The constitution sets no limit to
the number Of terms, to the qualifi-
cations for the place.
Ambition must not distinguish one
for sacrifice, should not be permitted
to call forth the fire of Anarchy.
Doubtless Shrank was insane.
Proclamation" which he carried
indicate insanity. But what is back
of his demented state? What labor
of hysterla and force of infammatory
teaching prompted hispoor, diseased
brain to an attack on Colonel Roose-
welt?

MILROY ECHO FOR KEEFE

Since reading the booklet gotten
out in the interest of Hon. ). K.
Keefe for representative we deem 1t
our civic duty to support him open
and above board. Some may ask
why wesupporthim now and opposed
him two years ago? The answer is
this: At that time county option
was an issue, on which we differed.
Now it's dead issue and he has
proven himself not only the most
popular member of the last legisla-
ture but one that had the interest
of his people at heart first, last and
all the time. Some time ago we
commented on him as being progress
sive and in the last issue of the Red
wood Falls Sun, we are asked, in a
round about way, how he can be
called a progressive. Does the fact
that man is Bull Mooser make
him progressive? To this we most
emphatically say, mol" Here's
what we claim makes him pro-
gressive:
1st. He voted for the state wide
primary in both the regular and
special session of the Legislature.
| End. A bill protect the farmers
in the grading of their wheat re-
curing all elevators to report to the
warehouse commission.
3rd A bill providing for the re
call Of public officials.
4th. A bill prohibiting minors
from entering a saloon and another
against procuring liquor for minors

Liberty there must be, yes. even
though this liberty is threatened by
the very spirit that animates it.
The anarchist is in our midst and
he must forever be with US because
this is free nation. free even to the
extent of permitting the elements of
disruption to develop in here.
Colonel Roosevelt is neither a
greater nor a weaker man because
of this attack. He is the same today
as yesterday.but the incident served
to emphasize side of his nature little
known Of the public.
When the poor demented man was
brought forward he questioned him
kindly. protected him from the mo b
and showed himself superior to rage,
master of his emotions. It was
fine spirit of forgiveness and human
feeling that actuated his words and
deeds while the wretch was before
him.
Also it served to emphasize, once
more, the indomitable force of this
man. For fifty minutes after being
wounded he stood beforea vast audi
ence and spoke.
In his breast, buried four inches
beneath the skin, was the bullet. He
minded it not. He was set to give
his speech and he gave it, forcefully,
nationally.
His strength was his weakness.
He should have been in a hospital
during those Fifty minutes. Awound
Of that nature in the breast should
not be trif1ed with. A weaker man
would have succumbed.
This is the strength of this strange
anomaly, Theodore Roosevelt: By
the very fury of his personality he
attracts and yet his gentleness in the
presence of great tragedy is per-
vasive.
The actual shootingwill gain him
no votes: his conduct following the
attack will make him thousands of
friends and should do so. Doubtless
he stands today the most popular
private citizen in the world and re-
gardless Of the result after election
will still occupy that enviabIe posi-
ton.
No defeat can daunt his energy
and no success can make him bigger
than he is. Whether or not he is to
be president remains for the people
to say. If they want fighter, ready
to do battle for them they will vote
for this man against whom anarchy
on one side and debilitated conserva-
tism on the other have leveled their
weapons.

Princeton, \. j., Nov. 9.-'Very use

The attention of the president-elect
was called to an argument in an edi-
torial that inasmuch as he had not
received a majority of the popular
vote and that since both the republi-
can and progressive parties favored
a policy of protection, therefore, the
country had voted against tariff re-
vision.

ANCIENT McAP OF
SeaNTA FE IS FOUND

One of the most wonderful old maps
of Santa Fe. drawn prior to the year
1885 and showing an entirely differ
ent Santa Fe from the ancient city
of today, has just been received by
the American School of Archaeology
in this city and has resulted in a
theories held concerning the city i'll
those early days of American history.
For instance, the plaza then ex-
tended from where the present cathe-
dral now is to point further east
of the present east side of the plaza
There We're no buildings then, on
the south nor on the east side of the
plaza.
The house occupied by the Nor
ley's and which was built in 1885, does
not appear on the map which is con-
elusive that at the time the map was
made, it had not been built because
the map, SO it's foot note explains, in
cluded every single building in Santa
Fe at that time.
An interesting feature is the Old
Palace, designated by the maker of
the map who signed his name as JOS
eph de Urrutia, as La Casa de Los
Gobernadors. He shows the Old Pat
ace with two towers, one at each
end of the building and shows two
rooms that would now extend into
the streets at either end Of the an
cient building, were they restored
This substantiates the theories of the
archaeologists now engaged in the
work of putting the Old Palace, into
similar shape as it was in those early
days and further brings out the
fact that originally, the Old Palace
was a Moorish architecture brought
from Spain.
It was originally believed that at
about the period the map was made,
there were couple of buildings at a
point about where the First National
bank building now stands or near
the Catron corner but this map shows
a building at about where the Mug
Ter millinery store now stands. with
another building Immediately in the
rear of it.
Near where the Western Union now
stands, the map shows chapel but
beyond that, it makes no record of
what chapel it was nor how construct
Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1912-11-09

ed The name of the chapel it is be-
lieved was Oapistrani. 1t also Was
called Capilla de Nuestra Sonora de
La Luz meaning The Chapel of Our
Lady of the Light. The map shows a
line of houses across the river from
a point near where the church of
Guadalupe now stands and extending
some distance to the south and the
west and east to about where San
Miguel chapel stood, which is desig
mated as Barrio Analso an Aztec name
meaning Beyond the Waters" and
local archaeologists believe it was
the village of the Tlocaltecas,
tribe of Indians who came to Santa
Fe, it is believed, with Onata, the
first conqueror of what is now New
Mexico. Old San Miguel chapel was
probably their place of worship.
They probably were allies of the con-
quistadores. The map was found in
a peculiar manner. A member of the
school was digging through a 'varie-
ty of ancient papers in the British
Museum in London when she ran on
to the map by accident.
She wrote members of the school
here concerning the map and Prof.
Hewett at once asked her to have it
photographed and a copy sent here
The copy came yesterday and proved
one of the most interesting finds
made by the school this year.
The Photographic copy will be on
exhibition at the New-Old Santa Fe
Exposition next week and will prove
one of the most interesting docu-
ments of the many there
