voTE.'ER STRAIGHT
VS.. GOOD POLITICS

| notice that the Tucumcari Sun Is
"A true blue vote-'er straight party
paper, and believes that every csndi-
date on the Democratic ticket should
be of the old true blue vote-er straight
type, and the Democrat who believes
in voting for the man who is best quail
flied regardless of party has a very
large gall "a ask the Democratic party
to elect him to an Office. Just to be
plain the editor of the Sun thinks that
all that is really necessary of being
capable and well qualified and that
justly deserves a Democrat vote is
the mar that votes-'er straight. Now
if every person who has an appetite
for office was capable of filling the
Office for which he aspires, the vote
'er straight policy would be the thing
to do, but this is not true. II is very
often the case that the man who is
least capable Of filling the Office for
which he aspires may get the nominal
ton under the primary or convention
system with n dozen candidates in OPP
position. In such cases it would be
foolish for people to vote for a mar
that was unfit, and not qualified to fill
the Office. Now if it is true-as is
claimed by Democrats who are in
position to know what they are talking
about that most Of the editors Of
Quay county have changed their poll
itics since we have a Democratic
president'-this is proof enough that
they are Democrats for spoil and not
for principle, then why should the
people Of Quay county be influenced
by such political papers. / believe
that the right feeling and right think
ing Democrats know that such cattle
are after the spoils and don't care a
continental damn for party, county,
or state, nor anything else but self.
Now il seems to me that the only
sensible thing for the voters of all
parties after the primary and conven-
ton are over is TO select the best
qualified men; men Of the highest
principlcs-and vote for them regard
less Of party. Just because a man Is
n Democrat, Republican or Socialist
and boasts of the fact that he has
always voted-'er straight is no quail

fourth Of the entire membership Is

II IA substantial increase is secured
before and during the convention in
March, the association promises that

represented on the executive board
after the election and that the same
system of detective supervision and
inspection and prosecution Of cattle
thieves will be given the New Mexico
cattlemen as is enjoyed by the stock
raisers Of the Panhandle. which will
mean a great saving in hard dollars

didate who comes before the people
with such dope should be weighed and
found wanting. Every man who runs

der such circumstances he tries TO
make the voters feel duty bound to

that there are men in the opposing

Albuquerque, N. NJ. Feb. Out
OF the large number of students at
the New Mexico State University who
are making their own way through
college are a number Of cases Of un-
usual interest, of both young men and
young ONE who are willing to brave
unusual hardships and difficulties in
order to get an education. Many an
Albuquerque furnace is being fired
this winter by boys whose minds are
on higher things while not a few
young women have not hesitated TO
undertake domestic service in order
to be near the university and avail
able for work there.
One OF the most interesting of these
cases is that of n young son of native
parents, from Guadalupe county, who
arrived at the University last fall with
a new suit of store clothes and three
silver dollars. These represented his
entire equipment, aside from a fixed
determination TO get a college edu-
cation. His English was broken and
uncertain, but his determination was
firm and clear. Money was necessary
for entrance fees and books and for
these a small loan Of S35 was obtained
for him. This was eve-y cent Of fnan-
cial assistance given this lad; vet he
is doing full freshman work: his En-
glish is clear and fluent. and last
week he walked into the registrars
Office and laid down $50, the final pay
ment Of his loan. He had made three
previous payments Of So each. This
lad has not only done good college
work, but mas paid every cent Of his
expenses and appears TO have thor
oughly enjoyed himself in doing it.
The University, of course, does not en-
courage young men to come here pen
n%iless; but this is an example Of what
can be done, when there is determine
ton to get an education.
