CLAYTON TAKES MONDAYS
GAME
And Gives TexhOma Tuesdays

The fans in this section were treated
Monday and Tuesday, to some more
"real, honest-to-God' ball playing
when Clayton and Texhoma crossed
bats for the fourth series of games
played by them this season. Texhoma
has taken six out of nine games from
us and have proven the hardest nut
Clayton has had to crack this season.
Mondays game was seven to four in
favor of Clayton. Batteries, Morton
and Butterbaugh for Texhoma, Knad-
dler and Hatchett for Clayton; hits
seven for Clayton, six for Texhoma.
Umpire, Brooks. Tuesdays batteries:
Waters and Butterbaugh for Texhoma
and Babcock and Miller for Clayton;
hits, Clayton six, Texhoma four; Um-
pire, Clark.
Babcock pitched wonderful ball
Tuesday and would have had 2 to 0
victory if his support had not been a
little weak in the first inning. He al
lowed only two hits in the last eight
innings and not a score. Knadller,
the pride of the Clayton team, left
Tuesday afternoon for Denver to pitch
in the Post Tournament. A telegram
received by his friends yesterday re-
ports that he won the second game
for Ft. Lyons, pitching against Nc
Graw, the star amateur twirler of the
state of Colorado. The winning team
in this tournament will pull down $500.

ANENT THE "FARM LOAN" FAKE
AND INTENDED VOTE
CATCHER

The Farm Loan" fake and intended
vote catcher is pointed to with pride"
as one of the "great achievements" of
the so-called democratic administra-
ton. 1t is one with the same web as
the Regional Bank buncombe foist-
ed upon the country as great finan-
cial" stroke in favor Of the plain peo-
pie not single one Of whom can point
to single instance Of financial re-
lief, under its regime 1t is safe to
say there is not a single farmer in
Union County who will ever be able TO
get taste of this political "pie."
Remember, it is not a Farm Loan
Act" in fact, but "Farm Land Bank
Act" and there is SOME difference
in name and in fact. Remember, there
will never be one of these twelve land
banks closer to Union County than
Denver, Colorado. The Union Coun-
ty farmer will have about the same
chance of securing loan from it as
a SNOWFALL would have retaining its
frigidity in the proverbial hot place.
Remember, Mr.. Farmer, if you have
any money to deposit your government
will take it on deposit at your post
office which is always convenient to
you. Then why should you be re-
quired to go to Denver, Colorado,
with all the odds against you secur-
ing a loan, trying to take advantage
of a "great achievement" that was in
tended for your special benefit. If
Uncle Sam means well to you, why
can he not loan you money through
the same post-ofiice window that he
takes your money on deposit, if he
is going to loan you any money at all?
Why put you to all this inconven-
ience? Why should another system
of "private banking be established
by the government under the pre-
tense Of beneftting the farmer unless
it be for the purpose Of catching the
farmer vote for the present admins
tration? That is an the so-called
EARN Loan Act' amounts to. The
present National Banking System is
based on bonds of the United States
and this new system viii be based
upo0 land but it viii not loan the
farmer except through Farm Land
Banksp in which the government will
own non-diVidend-paying stock. Now
who will get the foreclosures, inter-
est and other increments? The 'pri-
vate capitap that subscribes for the
stock of course. The scheme is sim
} liar to the old United States Bank
. which Thomas Jefferson and Andrew
Jackson, the only true democratic
presidents we ever had, fought TO a
finish; yet this land bank scheme
which is after the farmers lands is
"pointed to with pride" as one Of the
great achievements" of the present,
so-called democratic administration

FALL SAYS REPUBLICANS WILL
MEET OPPONENTS IN MUD
SINGING CAMPAIGN
Also Declares Hughes Will Surely
Be Next President

Santa Fe, Aug. 23.-All predictions
of a serious conflict in the republican
state convention seemed to disappear
when the state central committee this
morning, without oposition, chose Sen
aor Albert B. Fall for temporary
chairman, thus showing the Hubbell-
Bursum forces in full control.
FavOrite Sons Applauded
When at o'clock this afternoon,
the hour for the convention to meet,
arrived, the hall was crowded to the
doors of the Paris theatre with dele
gates and spectators. The first ap-
plause came when Frank A. Hubbell
entered the hall just before the time
for opening. Another outbreak oc-
Cured a few minutes later when SEN
ator Thomas B. Catron walked with
long firm strides down the hall. lie
seemed to carry his more than seven
ty-six years lightly and, although rec
ognizing the imminence of defeat
never appeared more buoyant or Wig
orous. The next demonstration oc-
Cured when two candidates for the
governorship, Sargent and Romero
walked down the aisle, not together
but Sargent following closely after
Romero. This joint demonstration
while vigorous, was entirely from the
large delegations from San Migue
and Rio Arriba counties.
Mixed with each of the demonstra
tions for favorite sons were yell'
from all parts of the house for Holm
0. Bursum, who came in as unosten
tatiously as possible and took sea
near the rear of the hall Very few
of the delegates saw him, but the ap
plause started for Bursum and con
tinued until the chairman raped fo
order.
Senator Fall began his keynot
speech with a declaration that he wa

publicans of the nation at large tina
New Mexico was expected to give

TALE OF ANOTHER HUBBARD
It's First Entrance Into Hawaii and the Eternal Favor Which 1t
 Gained Thereby.

There is story, youched for by an influence of the Mother Hubbard there.
 Years ago, the story goes. an Amer. ican was organizing sewing class among the native Hawaiian women. At that time they gowned themselves ia seaWeed and strings ot shells, and .l~ American wanted to teach them to n2aAe moro substantial clothes fer their own use. Sc she sent homo to the United States and asked that a pattern of the simplest garment pos sible be sent her-somethirg so easy that even fingers that had never be. fore wieided 8 needle could follow it.
 The Mother Hubbard had but recent ly made it's appearance, and a pattern of this new and simple garment VSas sent to the worker i'll Hawaii la, waiian women by the score emovgca from seaWeed fringe into cotton Moth. CT Hubbards, and 6 white cotton gown modelled on this famous original be. came practically the national felain- inc attire of the islands.
 To this day you cannot persuade a native Hawaiian woman Of the low. CT classes that the Mother Hubbard is not the native dress of American women. They have never changed their habit of wearing a cotton Moth. CT Hubbard as a badge of civilization.

Wi!i Kill Germs on PenciIs.

Of the 50,000 school children in this country who are the annual victims of preventable disease there is no doubt that goodly per cent of them con. tracted disease from the habit of suck, ing the points of pencils passed from hand to hand.
 To prevent this transmission ot deadly germs of preyentable diseases Q new device has just been inyeated says an exchange.
 It is specially constructed rack upon which pencils collected from the children can be placed with the tips resting in sockets where they are acted upon by formalin gas disin- fectant, which kills all germs.
 To get the best and safest results two sets of pencils should be kopt on hand. While one set is in use the other can be undergoing disfnfactag Thus by changing pencils twice @ day the danger of the spread of germs caa be cut in half

USE OF CONNECTS ON ROADS
WranqIe Into One of Actually Suc~ cessful Aeeompiisilme

The use of convicts on the public roads has passed through the period ot hysterical wrangle into period os actually successful accomplishment and almost universal acceptation, stated E. Stag9 Whitin, whose new course in practical penal problems aa. Columbia university was recently ap- nounced.
 Doctor Whitin aolds that the undes- lying motive in convict roaG building must be to secure the great efficiency for the state out of it's possessions. But the conyicts and the roads ars property of the state, and the work ing of convicts upon the roads shooi& eliminate many clements Of waste iA the administration of road and priaor departments.
 'The efficiency Of the convict eH thes road gang he continued, differs greatly in different gangs. There is no doubt in my mind that the applt cation of the efficiency records in use at the present time in the Wisconsin road camps for free labor will tend even more perceptibly to raise the e1 ficiency of convict labor.
