GRANT COUNTY FIRST-A STRAIGHT. BUSINESS
PROPOSITION

If the people of Grant county realized the full extent Of
the Importance Of sending Republican legislators to a Repubh-
can legislature in order to secure results for the county in the
way of favorable and beneficial legislation there would not be
a vote cast against Messrs. Murray and Cox for the state SEN
ate and Watson and Bush for the lower house.
The legislatures of New Mexico have been Republican by
large majorities for the last 20 years. There is no reason to be-
lieVe from present indications, nor is there a reasonable doubt
in the minds of astute political prognosticators, but that 1T will
be Republican again for the next two years.
Grant county will go before that body of men seeking
much legislation that will accrue to the interest of every tax
payer in the county.
The Enterprise puts it up to you as a straightforward and
elect theml
To secure the most favorable results, would you send an
ambassador to court, who is opposed to the political beliefs of
that court or one who is in harmony with these beliefs? Who
will secure the greatest amount of beneficial legislahon-po-
ltical friend or political enemy?
What would YOU do in a like position, Mr.. Voter. Don't
you think that your political beliefs would enter to some ex
tent into your calculations? Is not this human nature and has
it not been so from time immemorial?
This is a straight business proposition in which Grant
county is seeking representatives who can do her the greatest
good before a certain body of men who have it in their power
to do so. They MAY do so just as quickly with Democratic
representatives-or they may be just as reluctant with Repub-
lican representatives-but the CHANCES ARE TEN TO ONE
THE REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVE WILL WIN OUT
WHERE THE DEMOCRAT WOULD FALL DOWN N YOU
KNOW 1T. There is no politics in the election of these men
named above. 1t is straight business for Grant county to
cold-blooded BUSINESS proposition, Mr.. Voter.

SHIPLEYS CANDIDACY INDEPENDENT OF POLITICAL
CONSTDER ALTON

James A. Shipleys candidacy for county clerk, is grow
ing beyond mere political consideration just as it did in 1911
when he was elected county assessor on the Republican ticket.
Voters are beginning to take into consideration, the qualifca-
tons of the men for the office to which they aspire. In this
critical examination of the candidates fitness, Mr.. Shipley is a
sure winner and that is why he is growing stronger and strong
er each day with the taxpayers who know efficiency when
they see it and who are fair-minded enough to reward it even
f. it be that the reward goes to one of opposite political faith.
Many Democrats are going to vote for Mr.. Shipley solely on
the grounds that he is one of the best fitted men in the state
for official county position. THEY KNOW THIS FROM HIS
RECORD-they do not need to be told. A vote for Shipley
means a vote for faithful past service and efficiency.
