PRESIDENT WILSON.-Never in
the history of this nation did this
country have a president who really
represented it as Pres. Wilson has in
the past 312 years while he has held
Office. Such a great amount of sane
Legislation in such a short period was
unheard Of Think of these bills he
caused to be placed on our statute
books: The Clayton antitrust law,
child labor law, the seaman's act
taking men out Of slavery, federal
bank reserve preventing bank pan
les, parcels post law, the 8-hoUr law,
any many other laws which have
benefited all the people. He has kept
us out of war and has done so many
other good things that he is deserV-
ing of consideration by every man
and woman who can vote in NOvem-
Der. The public has been clamoTing
for honest men for public offices,
men of achievement. Is there any
doubt about Pres. Wilson's integrity
or his honesty of purpose. None
whatever. Then we should reward
him for his merits. Pres. Wilson has
sounded the keynote for others to
follow. He-touched the hornets nest
when he favored and had enacted
the 8-hour law for the men that toll
for the railroads. It is merely the be-
ginning of that which will eventually
come for all the workers in due time.

What The West Can Do

Doubtless it is difficult for the big centers of the east to realize that they no longer have the power to elect a president. It is good for the whole country to know that New York. New Jer- sey, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and all of the New England states. along with Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota and Oregon, could go republican, and fail to elect their candidate. But more signi- ficant is the fact that If every state north of the Ohio river and east of the Mississippi were to go republican, the south and the states west of the Mississippi can defeat that vote, without taking Minnesota, which is most ly west into consideration. Iowa, South Dakota and Oregon have twenty-three electoral votes, or within one vote of Ohio. With out counting any state east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio. except Ohio and without counting Minnesota, Wilson had majority of four votes in the electoral college. with the states of Iowa, South Dakota and Ore gon against him. With the south and the west, not includ- ing Minnesota, candidate may be elected with two votes tc spare. Counting Minnesota, he can have fifteen votes to spare.
 These facts are going to put g Iot-of politicians to figuring, anC in the future there will be less concentration of effort in New York, Indiana. and Ohio anC more effort in the states of the west.
 Oregon went for Hughes by |; very small vote. as did Soutt Dakota, and Iowa is an uncer tain as Kansas. Whether Mime sota is for Hughes or Wilson il not known at this writing Albuquerque Journal.

New UndersheriH

Sheriff R. L. Newman has ap- pointed c. W. Harp, of Winslow, undersberiff, in place of W. C.. Clemons who had held the place for nearly two years. MT. Clemons resigned several weeks ago, having in view starting a transfer business in Holbrook. This he has already started.
 MT. Harp arrived in Holbrook Tuesday evening with his wife and household goods and is now established in the undersheriff's S experiments in the court house.
 The selection of MT. Harp as undersheriff by MT. Newman is, in the opinion of the News, a good one. He has held the posi- tion of night marshal in Winslow for two years, and part of the time has held a commission as deputy sheriff. In both of these places he has made good, and he will no doubt perform the duties of his new position in manner acceptable to his superior and to the public generally.

Finish of Motorcycle Race

Roy Artley won his first mo- torcycle road race on an Indian powerpIus last Friday, when he wheeled into the final checking station of the Springerville-Phoe- nix contest at 2::243 Friday after noon covering the Al miles in 13:O1. A. T. Bedell, on an h. dian was second in 14:033. Ac- cording to unofficial figures, Joe Wolters, Excelsior, was third in 17:08 and Jack Dodds, Indian fourth in 17:193. It is under stood thnt that Indian people will ask a re-check of the times, in order to be sure that Dodds is not third, for the times are so close that an error will change the disposition of third money. amounting to oyer a hundred dollars.
 Not in many years has there been so tough a road race as this. But four out of the nine starters finished, and the time of the winner was only 34 miles an hour. This is due to execrable road conditions.
 Erwin G. Baker, who spilled rather than iDjure Harry Gran dall. Thursday, rode as far as Canyon station on the Black Canyon road, and then the game old racer had to g1Ye up. He went to the hotel at the station and lay down for a rest. with his right knee-cap so swollen as tc indicate a fracture.
 No other rider was hurt ir this, the hardest race on both machine and rider that has beer run to the Phoenix fair since motorcycle road racing became popular in the state. Artley, who has set a number of roaC records. not in competition, rode a splendid race. He competed rlnsucessfulIy in the San Diego Phoenix races of two and three years ago.
 ,Artley was in the lead whel the racers passed HolbrooI Thursday morning, and evident ly maintained his lead into Phoe nix.

Judge D. J, Thomas, cashier of the Merchants & Stockgrowers bank, returned last Sunday from Phoenix, where he attended the thirteenth annual session of the Arizona State Bankers Associa- tion which was in session in that city Friday and Saturday of last week.

Mir. Christie remained here for a day to visit old friends and then returned to EI Paso.

Dr. LoweH Passes Away

| Dr. Percival Lowell, founder and director of the Lowell ob- seryatory at Flagstaff and all astronomer of international re- putation. died in Flagstaff Sun day night from a stroke of apoplexy suffered yesterday morning.
 Dr. Lowell apparently was in good health when he arrived in Flagstaff recently from a lecture trip.
 Dr. Lowell's home was in Bos- ton, where he was born, March 13, 1855, but he came to Flag staff at certain season for his studies at the observatory, es- tablished there in 1894, because of the clearness of the atmos- -ahere-
 Dr. Percival Lowell, whose death at his private observatory at Flagstaff, Ariz., was reported Monday was best known as the principal exponent of the theory that Mars was inhabited.
 Astronomers generally, while expressing regard for his ability and enthusiasm, regarded many of hls theories as radical and all of them were not accepted. Dr. Lowell was a brother of A. Law renee Lowell, president of liar yard university.
 It was from the observatory at Flagstaff that he announced his discovery of vegetation on Mars. with the inference that the planet was inhabited, and his ob- servation of the canals as being so regular in form as to indicate they were artificial.

Bank Announces Changes

The officers of the Mckinley County Bank announce that MT. T. M. Quebedeaux has sold his principal interest in the bank to present stockholders, and while MT. Quebedeaux will identify himself with the First National Bank of Fl Paso, he will remain a director in the Mckinley Coun- ty Bank, lending his advice and assistance, MT. T. F. Smalling, who has long been identified with the bank in various offices, will now be President; and MT. T. E. Purdy will remain as First Vice-President. MT. Sam Bush man, who has been counsel for the bank for a number of years, will be more directly associated with MT. Smalling in the mana cement of it's affairs as active Vice-President. MT. J. A. Purdy will be cashier, and MT. H, R. Mead will be assistant cashier.
 The bank will continue its re- Iations with the First National Bank of Albuquerque, and will continue to pursue it's former policy of doing a banking busi- ness exclusively, with fair, courteous and equal treatment of all, and with a view to the continued development of the community.

Cabinet Changes Likely

It is believed that several mem bers of President Wilson's cabi- net believe that they should re- tire to private life. Mir. Daniels has enjoyed the honor of his posi- tion for four years, and his paper in Raleigh needs his attention. MT. Baker came reluctantly from Cleveland to the war depart ment. He is a young man with a future to make, and he feels that his law business needs his undivided attention. Secretary Redfeld enjoys the lecture plat form, and he has been consider ably hampered of late in the freedom of his expression.
 Lansing, McAdoo. Houston, Lane, Burleson, William B. Will son and Gregory probably will remain where they are unless Lane, should be called to a su- preme court vacancy likely to occur any time. - Albuquerque Journal.

Aftermath of the Election

Accurate totals on the vote 1T
 the general election November
 will not be available for seYera
 weeks. In some states where
 the vote for presidential electors
 was close, the losers state that
 contests will be instituted. The
 contests are not likely to effect
 the result, excepting they may
 change the number of electors secured by President Wilson.
 It has been certain since Cali fornla gave the president a ma
 jority that he was reelected. Contests might change the re- suit somewhat, but only in minor details. President Wilson not only secured a majority of the electoral votes. but he received nearly half million majority of the popular vote. The election demonstrated that a president can be elected without getting the vote of New York, a thing that political dopesters had con- sidered practically impossible.
 The senate of the United States will remain democratic, but the lower house of congress is still in doubt, with both democrats and republicans claiming a ma- jority. The official count in the states can alone decide.
 In Arizona the apparent ma jority secured by Campbell, the candidate, over Hunt. democrat, IS so small that both are claiming election. Only the the official count can decide, and this will not be started in many of the counties until next Mon day.
 In Navajo county the official count will not change the result other than it was changed last Saturday by the discovery that 0. D. Flake, democrat, had been | elected instead of J. E. Richards. republican, who had been re- ported with a majority. The mistake was made In getting the vote over the wire from one of the Winslow precincts.
 In this county it is not likely that sufficient evidence of ire gularity Tn the voting will be found upon which to base any contests. Should contests be instituted they will probably be started by Governor Hunt, or some other state candidate. The candidates are satisfied % abide by the result as shown ,n the face of the first returns.
