The Race Question.

The race question has not Yet been
disposed Of. as regards elections in
New Mexico. Before the heat Of the
campaign is developed. many solemn
promises are made by the two big
parties and by the leaders Of the two
races. that the race issue viii be al
lowed to repOse in slumber, so far as
they and their followers are concerned
Somehow the sleep always is broken
even though the origin cannot be
traced. Insofar as confessions are
concerned nobody ever starts any
trouble.
Notice was served last week in the
ALBUQUERQUE convention that the uues-
tiOn is far from sound asleep. Camilo
Padilla. delegate from Santa Fe county
charged that the Republican marty had
race troubles to settle, while the
Democrats have no such difficulties.

THE Republicans have promised TO
nominate Spanish-Americans for gov

they have failed We will have a

Do not be deceived into thinking race

petty leaders, who frequently are IN
scrupUlous These leaders take ad-
vantage Of the credulity Of the voters
who have had little or no advau-
tages as to education. and there
fore have not learned to think clearly
The most outrageous falsehOOds are
told in order to fan into flame all the
prejudice and hatred that may be en-
Eendered between races. Disaster is
sure to follow the raising Of the issue
in this campaign.
The New Vote.
The new vote in New Mexico is
divided among several counties. The
Democrats are claiming more than 50
per cent Of the votes found among the
new Corners. cOntending that the new
corners are nearly all from Texas and
oklahoma If the Democratic claim
should prove true. then the election IN
November would be a mere Formally,
serving no other purpose than 10
ratify the choice OF the Democratic
primaries and conventions.
The influx of new people perhaps
has been heaviest here in the Pecos
valley in Chaves and Eddy counties
Roosevelt Curry, Union and Mora also
have made substantial gains. In Col
fax county the Democrats are saying
they will poll 500 votes more than in
1911.
How VIII They Voter
A Republican here told me there
must be not less than COCO new votes
in the plains country. between Rich
land and Monument This district is
divided about equally between Chaves
and Eddy counties. A Democrat who
has lived here more than 80 years,
says he thinks this figure is too high.
He believes that 1900 is a conservative
estimate. In 1911 Mcdonald received
1894 votes in Chaves county, 1860 in
Eddy. while in the Democratic pri-
maries this month there were $685.
votes in Chaves. 1874 in Eddy. Ger
rainly there is nothing encouraging
for the Republicans in the magnitude
Of these gains The primaries in
Curry county. will be held on June 10.
in Roosevelt county on June L. II will
he possible TO tell accurately what the
gain has been in those two counties
after June Il.
