The state democratic corsentivfi
last night nominated Harvey B. Fer
gusson as candidate to succeed him
self as congressman from New Mex
leo and named Adolfo p. Hill, of San
Ia Fe. to make the race for corpora
tion commissioner to succeed Hugh
H. Williams, whose term of office ex-
pires at the end of this year.
The nomination of Mr.. Ferguson
has been a foregone conclusion for
months, as there has never at any
time been any real opposition to his
nomination. and enough delegates
were instructed for him to make his
nomination by an overwhelming ma
iority absolutely certain.
The nomination of Mr.. Hill. on the
prise and as the result Of a procedure
unprecedented in the history of po-
lItical conventions At no time dur
ing the campaign for nominations had
there been any candidate for this Of
flee with anything like definite
strength-in fact, 1t may be said that
there has been no candidate at all, Tor
no one has actively sought the nomi-
nation, and the problem for the DEM
ocrats has been to find man willing
TO make the race who would make q
strong candidate for the office.
From the beginning there has been
a sentiment that the nomination
should go to a Spanish-American. but
what particular Spanish-American
was the question that presented the
big difficulty. Lieutenant Governor
de Baca, of San Miguel county, and
Max Montoya of Socorro county had
been the most prominently mentioned
for the position. but no definite move
ment in favor of either was ever erys-
talli2ed

BILE candidate for the nomination for

and the committee appointed by the
chairman was composed of one repre-
sentative from each of the twenty-six
counties of the state.
This committee met in the parlor of
the Commercial club during the re-
cess for lunch. and after carefully 60
ing over all the available material in
the party finally selected Mr.. Hill for
the honor. AT no time had Mr.. Hill
been mentioned as a probable selec-
ton but when his name was suggest
ed it met with immediate approval
from all sides, and his nomination
subsequently was almost entirely
matter of form.
Harmony and Enthusiasm.
Harmony and enthusiasm were the
dominant notes of the convention.
Not a ripple of discord was anywhere
apparent from the first fall OF the
gavel to the last Not the faintest
sign of indifference or languor could
be detected in the actions Of the dele
gates. The name of Wilson was al
ways sufficient to bring out wild
burst of cheering. The mention OF
Secretary Bryan evoked a demonstra-
tion hardly less spontaneous and en-
thusiastie Praise of FERGUSON, OF
Mcdonald and of Jones, found ready
and uproarious response on the part OF
the delegates.
The stage had been beautifully dec
Grated In the national colofs, ana
portrait of President Wilson was
placed just over the footllghts Ev-
cry arrangement possible for the con-
venience Of the delegates had been at

charge of matters. and II there was
any kick on the part of any of the del
egates 1t was not made apparent IN
the sessions of the convention.
An interesting feature or the pro-
ceedings was the taking of moving pic
lures of the delegates just before the
opening of the afternoon session.
First. a photograph was made OF the
delegates massed on the sidewalk IN
front of the Elks theater. and then
procession was formed, headed by the
band and to the strains of martial
music the delegates marched up Goid
avenue while the camera man turned
the crank and took the motion pic

commission, who had charge or the
pictures. stated that the film wouid
be one of the finest that has yet been
taken for exhibition at the exposition
The Morning Session.
The auditorium of the Elks theater
was crowded with enthusiastic dele
gates when the hour of ten arrived,
and the balcony was we'll filled with
spectators. among whom were many
ladies. After the rendition by the

Germany has recently tried to indl-
cate to the United States government
the community OF interests between
the two In their Asatic holdings. Last
week this took the form OF a sugges-
tion that the eastern waters and
shores be neutralized by mutual con-
sent.
The Japanese belief Is that the Ger
man government will take full advan-
tage of the weeks time allowed In the
ultimatum for reply. This Is found
ed upon Il scarcely concealed belief
that this reply will be firm and une-
quivocal refusal TO admit the Japanese

HOW TO REMOVE STAINS OF ALL
 KINDS.

Dear Editor and COrnerites: Am sending some Generally Useful Hints.
 To remove iron rust from clothing, cover the spots with hot, stewed, un- sweetened rhubarb.
 Peach stains may be easily removed by soaking in sweet milk an hour before washing, or put cream of tartar on the watersoazed stains and place article in the sun.
 For coffee and most fruit stains, pour boiling water through the spots.
 For chocolate, cocoa or tea stains, wash in cold water.
 Cover grass stains with cream of tartar. wet with cold water and place in sun, or dip cloth in moIasses and wash out in cold, clear water.
 For blood stains, soak in cold water and when nearly gone use hot soapy water and a little kerosene.
 Machine oil or axle grease should be covered with lard. washed with cold water and soap, then hot water and soap.
 Red ink stains should be washed with ammonia and water.
 To remove blood stains where soap and water cannot be used. as on pill low ticks, etc, make a thick paste of laundry starch and warm water: cover the soiled places and let remain till perfectly dry; then brush off the pow der. Sometimes it is necessary to re- peat the process.
 Lemon juice and salt will remove rust stains.
 For removing stains from painted walls. a mixture of wheat bran and water is excellent. It should be al lowed to stand till it becomes sour then wet Q cloth in the mixture and fasten it close to the stained part and
