Taxes Has Been Made Issue
in Heated Legislative Cam
paign Now Closing.

ESPECIAL cosRrsronpsscs TO MORNING JOURNAL
Aztec, NJ NJ. Nov. 1.-The political
campaign for representative between
J. NJ. Palmer, republican, +. S. White
head, democrat. and Larkln Beck,
progressive. has been fought on the
issue of economy In state and county
affairs. At the various meetings held
over the county the past two weeks.
the candidates have outlined their
policies and the voters are well-in-
formed. The republican candidate
promises to work for county salary
law that will pay not more than
$500 a year to any officeholder in
san Juan county. Mr.. Whitehead
II is understood, will favor SIS per day
as a maximum. Mr.. Beck seems to
be saving wood and saying nothing"
but making a quiet personal canvass.
II is conceded that Beck may poll
80 votes In the county, and II his sup
port comes from Palmers ranks, 1t
may elect Whitehead. The taxpayers
OF this county have seen their taxes
more than doubled ssinees..1911 on
real estate. some of the land
valuations being placed by the
county commissioners as high as
$3.50 per acre. This valuation is
higher than any other county in the
state. and San Juan is handicapped
by lack of proper railroads facilities,
while the Pecos valley and other sec
tions have excellent transportation.
The taxing of mortgages here has re-
suited in driving away investments,
foreclosing of loans on real estate and
bringing distress and ruin upon those
who are unfortunate enough to be in
debt. State road and auto taxes are
paid to the amount of thousands of
dollars, and yet not one red cent has
the state engineer or the state road
board ever spent in this county The
county asked for the loan Of a state
grading machine, which was refused.
Taking all the facts into considera-
ton, the people of San Juan feel that
they have been Disseminated against,
not only by the state road board, but
also by the state board of equaliza-
ton in tax matters. From expressed
opinions. the people want a represen-
tative in the legislature who win fight
for business administration or pub
lie affairs and il the rest of the peo-
pie of the state feel the same way,
there will be no more extravagant
county salary bills nor waste in other
ways of the public money of this
state.

! HIGH TRIBUTE TO
SANTA f PRIEST
Dedication Of New Rosario
Chapel Occasion of lnspir-
ing and Eloquent Sermon by
Distinguished PreIate.

Santa Zee, Nov. -Inspiringly elo-
quent was the sermon preached this
forenoon at the dedication OF the new
Rosario chapel by Archbishop Jean
Baptiste Pitaval. Paying a personal
tribute to the devotion of Antonio
Fourchegu. under whose leadership
the Catholic congregation had erected
this new testimonial to their faith. he
referred In conclusion to the charac-
ter of the day, All Saints. holy to the
glorious company Of martyrs and
propagators of the faith who have
been canpnized He referred to the
mighty deeds of the Franciscans and
the Conquistadores to whose memory
the chapel is especially dedicated. for
upon this spot, according to tradi-
ton, De Vargas made his vow which
resulted in chapel being built upon
1t and an annual procession on De
Vargas day in celebration of the vic
tory. over the rebelllous Pueblo In
dams in 1898.
1t was perfect, hunshiny. warm
autumn forenoon. glorious setting
for the solemn exercises The chapel
Is on a little knoll in Rosario eeme-
terry, before which the city, half hid
den in its verdure, spreads out a res
plendant, vast crescent from the cool
springs of Aqua Fria TO the snow-clad
peaks of the Blood of Christ range.
Autumn had touched the Lombardy
poplars, the orchards, the elms and
naples which are Santa Fe's glory,
with golden yellow and flaming scar
let, and over these spread flawless,
turquoise sky of translucent blue, APP
parently resting upon the somber
ridge of the Sandals to the southwest,
the Ortiz and San Pedro range to the
south, the Glorietas to the southeast
the Jemez to the west and loftiest of
all, upon the Truchas and Badly
peaks, 10000 feet high, to the north
east. 1t was an unforgettable pic-
ture, as fair as any to be found n
Spain or Italy.
A Devout Throng.
Thousands flocked to the historic
spot this forenoon, following the
sweet strains by the Santa Fe band.
At the chapel, Vicar General Antonio
Fourchegu, assisted by three priests,
celebrated high mass and Archbishop
Pitaval preached the sermon in Span
ish. The chapel could not hold the
crowds and picturesque groups dotted !
the hillside on the outside, reverently |
listening to the splendid music. the
solemn chants and words and Joining

The Druggists Sunday.
From the New York Globe.

From the New York Globe.
The complaint OF the merchants of this
city that the Sunday closing law was be-
ing enforced SO as to discriminate against
them in favor of the many drug stores
that carry large stocks OF assorted goods
was well justified. and Police Commits
sioner Waldos action in stopping this
abuse will meet with general approval
There is no reason why a drug store
should be permitted to sell Sunday mer-
chandise which properly does not come
under the classification of drugs If other
storekeepers are to be compelled to shut
up shop. This unfair discrimination has
been costing the general storekeepers
thousands of dollars worth of trade an
nually.
Drug stores are permitted to keep open
Sundays to sell medicines or any other
emergency necessity. The law never in
tended that they should do 4 department
store business on the Sabbath. No one
will question the right of the druggists
to offer for sale in their stores any article
they choose from a pin to piano, but
they should be willing to confine their
activities outside of their drug business
to the six days a week the law has set
apart for that purpose.

Yes, the boy was right" said President
Churchill Of the New York board Of edu-
cation. when shown a letter from re-
cent high school graduate complaining
| that the schools had not helped him and
many others to choose occupation and
prepare for it. Yet people who have had
experience in helping even one boy to find
his place in the world will assent to Mr..
Churchill's plea that there is limit to
what we can do" Vocational guidance
is as important as vocational training, but
calls for even greater wisdom. IL Is as
difficult says Mr.. Churchill, to deter
mine real aptitudes for special lines of
work as anything l can think Of To
the same effect were the comments of
Supt. Maxwell. Principals and teachers
have been asked to cooperate with par
ents, but this commonly relates only To
choice between the college preparatory,
the commercial and the manual training
course. A wise decision at that forkins
Of the ways is immensely important but
it falls far short of mapping out the
boys life for him, OF even OF suggesting
for him definite breadwinning occupa-
ton.
That attention is to be increasingly CEN
tered upon this point is plain, and valu-
able results may be looked for. Yet We
ought not to expect too much of the
schools, and above all they must not be
b. .amed for existing defects. That school
masters are responsible for helping their
pupils to choose their life work and pre-

Is the President Superstitious!
From the Detroit Free Press.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Some of our COW workers in the field
of journalism are exaggerating the Pres
ident's lack of superstition until they are
making him out to be the most super
sttious person imaginable. They have
been telling stories for months about his
liking for Fridays and the thirteenth of
the month, and especially in connection
with his daughters wedding the yarn has
been worked overtime. We doubt very
much whether the gentleman himself
ever said or thought a tenth part of what
Is attributed to him in TINS way. reports
of the kind usually arise from some
chance remark, lightly uttered and gem
orally jocose, but seized upon by some
bystander and passed from mouth to
mouth or eye to eye, magnified as it
travels until it grows into a gross mis-
representation of the person VINO was its
source.
We don't like to think of man of DR..
Wilson's mentality and culture cons. ant
ly going out of his way to do things on
Friday. or counting the letters of his
name with the zeal of a Caconian crypto-
gram hunter to make combinat ons of
thirteen. 1t is just as superstitious to
choose Fridays or thirteenths for doing
things as it is to avoid the days as un-
lucky. And for the prattle about the
thirteen letters in Woodrow Wilson,"
the President is too well aware that his
first name is Thomas to forget to count
it into the reckoning.
Please let us have a rest about this
very silly topic 1t is probably all un-
true, and even if the President had said
every word ascribed to him 1t wouldn't
be quite decent to be perpetually adver-
tising to the world the little weaknesses
of our chief magistrate. But We don't
believe he has the weakness in question.
1t is all in the active Imagination of
space writers.
