COMES TOO LATE

After four years of suffering from
the white plague, tuberculosis, Mrs. l..
Ballew was brought 10 Tucumcari in
hopes Of restoring her to good health.
She was accompanied by her husband
and three small children and they ar.
rived here about three weeks ago.
Death came to her relief Saturday
morning and the body was shipped
back TO Cheeotah, Okla, for burial. The
case was sad one as the husband had
been compelled through love and true
manhood to wait upon the wife through
her sickness and was unable to earn
sufficient money to care for the family
needs. The good neighbors displayed
the usual western hospitality and did
all they could to assist the bereaved
family.

MUST REGISTER TO TAKE
PART IN CITY ELECTIoEs

Santa Fc, March 30.-Surprise, "a
say the least will he occasioned by nm
opinion Of Assistant Attorney General
Harry :. Clancy that none but regis
tered voters may east their ballot M
municipal elections next month in New
Mexico. Aifidavits cannot be taken le.
gally in lieu Of registration, although
this has been the practice in most Of
the municipalities Of the state.
However, citizens have until Satur.
day, April {, to register. when the reg.
istrntion boards meet for the last time.
On the following Monday they must
certify the registration lists TO the
election boards. Mr.. Clancy has dug
up provision of n statute, Section
lii3, of the compiled laws, which for.
bids the acccptanccs of any ballot un.
der any circumstances except Of those
registered and this provision has never
been repealed upon the request of Jus.
ticc Of the Peace Maria Garcia, Of Pre-.
cinct No. II, Of Santa Fc and reads ms
follows.
Complying with your oral request
for the opinion of this Office as to
whether nm unregistered person may
vote at the election to be held in the
city of Santa fc, on April Z, 1914, !
respectfully call your attention to See.
tion 2iI3, of the compiled laws Of 1897
which provides Mt great length for the
registration of voters at city election
and then declares that .no person
whose name is not 50 registered shall,
ON ANY ACCOUNT, be permitted 10
vote at such election
\ pcrusal Of this law shows clearly
and undoubtedly that IL was the inten.
tion of the learned law makers of New
Mexico to require the registration Of
all those who intended to vote at a city
election, and TO absolutely prohibit the
voting Of unregistered persons.

DISPARITY OF AGE IN MARRIAGE

In the courts of feminity, where the
acts of womankind are passed in final
review, some question is raised as ia
the approaching marriage OF Miss FL.
canor Wilson and Secretary McAdoo,
The bride.clcct is only - years old
while the amorous secretary has turned
the fateful corner Of q. According "a
the traditions, this constitutes an ele.
mcnt of unsuitablity.
Formerly the ancient of half cen.
tury was supposed to sit at the card
table, playing scdato rubbers of whist
with hoary dowagers, while his youth.
ful wife waltzed with courtiers Of her
own age in the ballroom.
Even the sweetest maiden will some
day become tired of running for hot
water bottles and invalid chairs for her
declining partner, while the pulses of
life still beat high in her veins. II has
not been strange that her affection Of
ten turned to the partners Of the dance
aud the saddle, rather than to the oc.
cupant of the placid easy chair and the
hearth.
But today the artificial boundaries OF
age are very much broken mp. Many
of our serious minded yonng folks, with
their sociology aud crudition, seem to
have utterly skipped the decade from
twenty 10 fifty, so thoroughly are their
minds matured 10 all the permanently
serious issues Of life. They live lives
Of splendid usefulness. But thrCpgh
failure to kick up their heels in the
freedom Of sport, they seem to miss the
full symmetry of wholly rounded
character.
On the other hand, there are grey.
boards o fthc seventies who most mu'
tinously refuse TO stand with one foot
in the grave where they belong. One
suspects that Secretary McAdoo, who
tangoes and plays tennis enthusiastical'
ly though past the half century mark,
will align himself with this class even
when he reaches great age. The type
Is growing more common, and marri'
ages like the one that has Just stirred
Washington society, seem to be more
frequent.
