AT a meeting. Of members of the
Vaughn Commercial club, the San Mi
guel county road board and board of
county commissioners at Antonchico
Sunday plans were made COR the build
ing Of a new highway which will shodt-
en- the route to Roswell by many
miles. The Vaughn representatives
said that Guadalupe county will build
much needed bridge at Antonchico
early in the coming spring, and the
San Miguel county folk said they
would see that the portion of the road
in this county leading to Antonchico
is put in the best of shape. This high
way is made difficult to travel by high
centers, but there are no bad hills,
and the road commission thinks it can
get it in good shape with little diff
Guilty. 4
On the other side Of Antonchico
there is stretch of road five miles
in length which will prove somewhat
difficult of reduction to a passabIe
state, but John Hicks of Santa Rosa,
member of the Guadalupe county
road commission, declared that he
would begin the work at once. Mr..
Hicks has a reputation for doing good
road work and his presence at the meet
ing Sunday was appreciated. The pro-
posed new road in Guadalupe county
will follow direct line from Vaughn
to Antonchico. The table Of distances
for the new highway is as follows.

The above are the slogans adopted
by the new organization known as the
National Republican Association o.
Labor Men.
The laboring men Of Massachusetts
and other portions Of the country
have been studying the Industrial con
ditions in the United States, and have
come to the conclusion that the only
hope Of a revival of business and their
own salvation lies in the return tc
Is power Of the republican party
They have organized national as
sociation for the purpose of carrying
on campaign Of study for their own
benefit knowing that the policy of the
democratic party means their destruc-
tion, as the failure Of chance to win
a livelihood can spell nothing else.
They know that the history of the
last few years is pregnant with events
that teach in language and fact that
cannot be misunderstood. that the sue
cess Of all worlSingmen lies in republi-
Iican success and that the coming into
power Of the democrats always brings
disaster.
There IS nothing SO strong as the
thing that comes to us from our own
experiences
There. IS nothing that teaches SO bit

q man the knowledge that, no matter
how hard he may fight for existence,

nay hava aided ii the situation BY
Las Vegas optic., 1914-10-20

This lesson has come to many man
in the last two years and it is not to
be wondered that the workingmen Of
today are waking up to the fact that
as long as the democratic party is in
power nothing better can be expected
than what is now being endured
1t is but the repetition Of history
and this is the second time that it has
been forced upon the knowledge of
the people Of this country within the
last quarter Of century.
There is no use in arguing the thing
in any other way. The facts are here
and the conditions cannot be changed
by calling them psychological or senti-
mental, or anything else.
Money is scarce. Business men are
boarding their money, because they
are fearful of what is coming next.
Railroads are not building mile of
road, and the employees are being
thrown out of work. Private individ-
uals are living just as closely as they
possibly can. The whole condition is
actual and not in any sense the result
Of wrong thinking, or wrong Judgment.
It is not psychological, but actual.
1t is the most real thing that ever the
people stacked up against. 1t is de-
structiye.
The wage earners of America are
beginning to see the light clearly and
the organization which has been form
ed will do an immense amount of good
in bringing the members Of 1t to real
ize the actual, desperate conditions
which democratic control has brought
about.
The time does not demand so much
the offering of theories, such as the
progressive party is passing out, but
Iof the practical legislation and con
structive policies which have been al
ways wrought out by the republican
party w d ennc %
The fact that the menIofi the coua
try have come to fully understand
these things is the hope of the future

VILSONPREACHES
A new LEGAL
DOCTRINE
Continued From Page one.)

hearty welcome 10 the city, is whe
ther We sufficiently apply those same
IDEAS to the body OF municipal law
which we seek to administer. Cita-
tions seem to play so much larger roll
new than principles. There was
time when the thoughtful eye of the
judge rested on the changes of social
circumstances and almost palpably
saw the law arise out Of human life
Have we got to a time when the only
way to change law is by statute?
The changing of the law by statute
seems to me like mending a garment
with a patch; whereas law should
grew by the life that is in it, not by
the life that is outside of it. | should
hate to think that the law did not
derive its impulse from looking for
ward rather than from looking back
ward, or rather, that it did not derive
its instruction from looking about and
seeing what the circumstances OF men
actually are and what the impulses Of
justice necessarily are.
Understand me, gentlemen, | am
not venturing in this presence TO inn
peach the law. For the present, by
the force of circumstances, | am in
lrart the embodiment of the law, and
lit would be very awkward to disavow
lniyself, but | do wish to make this
tintlmation, that in this time of world
lchanges, in this time in which we are
going to find out just how, in what
particulars and to what extent the
real facts of human life and the real
Innral judgments OF mankind prevail,
it is worth while looking inside our
municipal law and seeing whether the
moral judgments of mankind are made
square with every one of therjAdg-
ments of the law itself. For | be-
lieve that we are custodians, not OF
commands, but Of a spirit. We are
custodians of the spirit Of righteous
Iress, of the spirit of equal handed
justice, of the spirit of hope which
believes in the perfectibility Of the
law, with the perfectibillty OF human
life itself
Public life, like private life, would
Le very dull and dry matter if it
were not for this belief in the essen
tai beauty of the human spirit and
the belief that the human spirit could
be translated into action and into or
diAance. Not entirely. You cannot go
any faster than you can advance the
a9erage moral judgments Of the mass,
hut you can go at least as fast as
that and you can see to it that you do
not lag behind the average moral
judgments of the mass.
Il have in my life dealt with all
scrts and conditions Of men, and
have found that the flame Of moral
judgments burned just as bright In
the man Of humble life and limired
experience as in the scholar and the
man of affairs And l would like his
voice always to be heard, not as a
witness, not as speaking in his own
case, but as if he were the voice Il
, men in general, in our courts of jus
tice, as well as the voice of the law
! yers remembering what the law has
a1teen. My hope is that being stirred
(. to the depths by the extraordinary
circumstances of the time in which
we live, we may recover from those
depths something of renewal of that
vision of law with which men may he
supposed to have started out in the
old days of the oracles, who com
muned with the intlmations of iiv

The constant use of coffee and tea

Caffeine is use in coffee and tea as

nerve and muscle tissue must draw

of an excessive quantity of toxic

conditions tend to exhaustion and pre-

Caffeine is not a food to nerve or

the elimination of fatigue proucts, but
