In the early hours of Sunday morn
ming two men were seen to approach
the boat landing of the La Jara Hunt
ing and Fishing club at Kroenig's
lakes and taken away one of the boats;
shortly after daybreak, Judge David

discovering the craft had disappeared.

the possession of B. F. Mcclure, an
East Las Vegas alderman, and Richard
Hesser, painter The men were in
formed that they would be expected
to take the boat back where they found
1t without delay, which they did. 1t
is declared to be more than likely
that they may be investigated by the
San Miguel county grand jury at its
next session. as the taking Of the
boat without permission and in the
dead of night undoubtedly constitutes
theft in the opinion Of the members
Of the fishing and hunting club.
MCGUIRE and Hesser were not seen
TO take the boat, but the fact that it
was in their possession when discov-

Denver Sent 1.-THE Colorado coal
miners ctrike was called September
% 1913. The number of men who quit
work was estimated at $500 by the
operators and 1900 by the union offi-
Gals. Figures compiled by state
Mine Inspector James Dalrymple show
there were employed in the Colorado
coal mines the first there months OF
1914 an average of 10,149 men, as COM
pared with 14,O35 for the same period
in 1913.
Almost from the beginning the
strike was marked by intermittent
disorders until late in October Cover
nor Ammons sent the National Guard
into the strike district. The climax
of these disorders came after most Of
the militia had been sent home, be-
ginning with the battle of Ludlow be-
tween strikers and state troops on
April 20, and continued until President
Wilson ordered to the scene federal
troops which arrived April 30.
Sixty-six persons are known to have
been killed in the strike disorders
and the known list of wounded num-
ber 4S. Since the arrival of federal
soldiers quiet has prevailed.

Criminal suits brought in the state
and federal courts and growing from

The original demands of the strik,

THE CANDIDATES

characterization of the candidate
Asa campaign is always a thing of in
ssst. The voters like to know wha
14cr quallflcarlons are Tor the posi-
ions to which they have been nomir
ated
In the present campaign the republi
cans have nothing to apologize for in
the men whom they have chosen as
their standard bearers.
The candidate for congress is Be
nignc C Hernandez. of the county OF
: Rio Arriba. In the northern portion
of the state he needs no introduction
20 the people. To those of the south
ern part he will become known as the
campaign progresses, and as he be-
GENES better known, so will he be-
come better liked and more respected.
He is one of the men who grow with
acquaintance.
Our opponents have concluded to
make their campaign against him on
the grounds that he is not we'll known
in the state, and lacks in the qualifi-
cations for the position for which he
has been chosen. This is the weak
est argument that could be advanced,
hut detracts in no way from the actual
worth of the man.
In every position he has held he
has met the emergency. He has never
disappointed his friends, and never
failed in his duty to the public In
our past history, how many men who
have achieved distinction would have
been selected on their merits, as those
merits were popularity known?
Every public man must be tried in
the crucible before he is fully appre-
clated or understood. II he has shown
his capabilities when tried, that is the
fair test for the future. To say that
man is unfit for public service in
which he has not been tested when
AL the record Of the past is in his
favor, showing ability in all he has
undertaken so far, is to be an unjust
biased judge. Every man must be
Judged for the future by what he has
done in the past. so long as his quail
hcations are not hampered by age,
dissipation or disease.
None of these things can be charg- I
ed against the republican candidate for /
congress. He is not untried; he is
not unknown among those with whom
his public duties ana citizenship rela-
ticns have brought him in contact;
he has in no way shown that lack of
ability with which his opponents
charge him. for want of anything else
to say; but, on the other hand. all /
who know him best praise him most;
he has been in public service in diff
ferent positions. county and federal. /
and has failed in no manner from
standpoint of ability. honesty, or capa-
cits to initiate. or to carry out the 4
policy Of those for whom he was per !.
