never ACTIVE IN
CITY POLITICS SAYS
BARElA; HERE TODAY

Some statements made By Senator
Darela on the witness stand in the
recent hearing of the senatorial con
test, and which statements are mat
,crs OF record. are directly nt var
lance with the conduct and activity
OF the willy senator. Barela testified
with apparent sincerity that in bls
long career in public life he had new
or taken any part In city elections
In Trinidad How true this is may
be decided bv his activity OF ycster-
day In behalf of the Citizens ticket
and his work about the polling plac-
es today. Barela came from Denver
on Sunday to get into action for the
gang and all the time that h" has
been in Denver he has been writing
letters to his Spanish American fol-
lowers and friends urging them TO
vote the Citizens ticket straight.
In bis testimony. to be strictly
truthful the senator should have
sal that there has not been any kind
of election held In Trinidad or Las
Animas county during his long Gu
recr in public life. in which he has
not been active. He has been a. IA
miliar figure about the polling piac-
cs at every election, being a valuable
worker among the Spanish American
people. Such statements as appear
on the senate records but serve to
convulsc with laughter any rcsiden;
of Trinidad who has had any esper-
icncc with politics or been n voter.
Ix his address at the West theatre
last night Fred w. Clark called at-
tention to the statements made by
the senator, under oath. ana theL
called attention to his activity yes
terday in behalf OF Dunlavy and the
gang ticket. The senator IL an OK
pert at saying one thing and doing
another and is as slippery as the pro-
verbal eel in all matters that are in
| any way political. The people of Las
| AninIas county have long ago lost
| confidence in any utterances Of the
senator who has used his friends
and double-crossed his constituents
time and again to advance bis own
ends.
His attitude on county division
shows clearly where he stands.
