to-date lobbying facilities at the Legislative

party, we must by all means have Republi-
can county commissioners in Rio Rrriba

IS our high responsibility to have a dog
catcher of the party of Lincoln elected in
Cuervo, N. NJ, and be sure to send to the

have no conscientious scrupfes about throw
ing out a few regularly elected members and
electing substitutes on their own hook.
Back to Business!" Let us make Cleo
fes superintendent of the state prison in

The Powerful Pennsylvania

When the stars and Stripes were run
UP on the Pennsylvania at Norfolk on Mon
day a week ago, one of the most formidable
warships in the world was added to the
United States navy. The laval experts de-
clare that she has no equal in gun power
and ability to stand up under punishment.
In the Skagerak fight the British battleship
Warsprite lived through a terrible pound
ing by the German dreadn0ughts because
her vital parts were well armored. The
battle cruiser Queen Mary soon succumbed
because she was not we'll protected. In her
case there was a compromise to give her
great speed. Her forte was attacking at
long range with her 1876 inch guns. As
she had to fight at a medium range, on
account of the atmosphere and the tactics
forced upon her, she was doomed. The
Warsprite stood up, kept on firing her 15-
inch guns, and got out of the trap.
The New York Sun thus describes our
new war-boat:. Within a few days of that
exhibition Of Abattleship stanchness the
Pennsylvania goes into commission. He.
who runs may read. We hope the lesson
will not be lost upon congress. Here is a
ship of 31,400 tons normal displacement,
with a belt amidship 1874 inches thick and
turret protection of from 9'to is inches,
built to withstard the heaviest broadsides
and keep afioat. She carries a main battery
of twelve 14-inch guns and a secondary bat
terry Of twenty-five 5-inch guns, together
with four torpedo tubes She has a speed
of twenty-one knots. Her fuel is oil only.
which increases her radius of action at
least 40 per cent, for the same weight. of
fuel, and she can quickly replenish at sea
from a tanker.
A feviathan indeed is this American
superdreadnought; a fortress that can deal
destruction and escape it herself unless
pitted against a ship as we'll protected and
Of superior armament. But there is no such
ship ahoat III any other navy at the present
time, The Pennsylvania is said to have a
rival in the Japanese dreadnought Fuse of
81 800 tons. There is not much to choose
their ornaments, for the Fuse has
1 main battery of twelve 14-inch guns and
aNseeondary battery of sixteen 6-ineh guns.
She can make 22.5 knots, and is therefore
faster. Particulars of her protec-
are lacking, but it is doubtful whether
her armor is as thick at vital points as the
Pennsylvania.
The Queen Elizabeths OF the British navy
carry 15-inch guns, but only eight Of them
these ships have an advantage of four
over the Pennsylvania in speed. A
greater range for the British 15-inc guns
claimed, and this with highe T speed
would give the Queen Elizabeths an initial
advantages over the Pennsylvania in very
weather. But our ordnance experts
say that the range Of the American 14-inch
naval gun is as great. If that is the fact
The Queen Elizabeth with her eight big
guns and arInor not as thick would be no

cHIcKEN-HEARTED TOURISTS

Ration Range: An amusing incident oc-
cured yesterday afternoon when a Texas
touring party bound for Colorado and tray
cling in five automobiles, lost its nerve
when they viewed the route of the scenic
highway along the mountainside west of
the city and turned homeward. A.. r. Da-
Wis of the Davis Garage did everything in
his power to disabdse the tourists of their
fears Of the awful teffofs Of the highway,
even sending one Of his cars with the five
Texas drivers two miles up the highway to
demonstrate that our 20-foot, 7 per cent
mountain boulevard is as prosaic as a Tex
as prairie, but even the anticipated pleas
ures of Colorado summer resorts could not
overcome the fear instilIed by the dizzy
~ ascent of the mountain.
1t is the fervent wish of all admirers of
our beautiful scenic highway that not many
of our summer visitors may prove such
authenticated travellers. Tales concerning
the alleged terrors OF the Ration Pass have
considerable weight with the dwelIers Of
the plains, and advertising of this kind can

Note to Carranza

The note by President Wilson to Car
rama, reciting the long list Of outrages
since Carranza first pledged himself to stop
outlawry and protect Americans from Mex
leans on either side the boundary, is a
terrific indictment of the ~incompetency and
bad faith OF the Carranza government.
But that isn't all.
II is a no less terrific indictment of the
inconapetency and ineticiency Of the Wilson
administration. 1t is, moreover, only bring
ing up to date the four years record Of sim
liar outrages upon Americans and America,
which record has been accompanied with an
endless series of notes much similar to the
one handed to the Mexican ambassador TO-
day.
We hope the president has reached the
sticking point. More drastic measures have
been taken than ever before to prepare for
the %eventuality which has been threatening
for four years. 1t is quite possible that,
seeing the impossibility Of longer postpon.
Ing the inevitable, the President has de-
cided to attempt a strengthening Of his po-
litieal position by a determined stand. The
moving finger, however, has writ, The
record Of the four years Of incompetehcy
in handling the Mexican situation must
stand. And every time the president re-
cites he bloody history of those four
years, he is indicting not only Mexico and
the Mexican leaders, but Woodrow Wilson.

Good Work by John

John. Conway, county superintendent OF
schools, always as busy as q bee in q bar
rel, has pulled off something good, as usual.
Conway has arranged to nave the seventy
five teachers attending the county institute
here remain four weeks longer, making an
instruction period of four weeks in all.
Conway's idea is to give all these teachers
that much longer opportunity to better their
qualifications, as a part of the move to
have no teachers in the county schools
holding lower than a second grade certffl-
cate. But Incidentally IL IS quite worth
while to Santa Fe to have this substantial
increase to her population remain here for
another month.
Probably the most encouraging feature
of the situation is that this desire on the
part of the hard working and faithful coun-
ty teachers to better themselves reflects
the newly awakened ambition among the
rural residents to have better instruction
for their children. The estimates Of the
district school directors this year all called
for either first or second grade teachers.
The country people are beginning TO real
lie that their children are entitled to just as
thorough instruction as pupils in the cities;
and they realize. moreover. that this better
Instruction means more efficiency for the
coming generation, and finally better homes
and more profitable farms. AS the New
Mexican has said before. a quiet revolution
is working out in the rural districts OF
Santa Fe county; and its effects will be
profound.

Won't Be Happy Till
He Gets 1t

Apparently venustiano Carranza, the be
whiskered and chesty Sovereign Grant
Presidente-Geheral De Facto Of Mexico
wants a spanking; and win not be satisfied
until he receives ii.
The Carranza edfct Is that pursuit into
Mexico of Mexicans who invade the United
States and kill and destroy on American
soil is regarded as an act Of hostility to
Mexico and will be the signal for attack
on such pursuing forces by Mexican troops.
fNCarranza insists and demands that he
be c~astigated, it will be a privilege to car
ry out his desires. Evidently. judging from
the ordering out Of the state militia of the
whole country, there Is a determination to
see that he be accommodated.
The fact which lies at the root of all the
Mexican mess is that the MeXicans, neither
leaders nor poems, have any comprehension
of the size, resources or power of the Unit
ed States. They are stepped in an igncr-
ance which is so colossal we cannot mag
inc it. Once given a glimmering OF the
truth about this nation we shall begin to
get on a satisfactory footing with them.
The only thing they understand is force
The only thing which viii change their
attitude toward us is to put the fear of
God and Uncle Sam into their hearts.
Attempts at diplomatic dealing with a
~grandiose ass like Carranza are as futile
as similar attempts to negotiate with a
treacherous assassin like Villa. The most
economical, efficient, quickest and most eff
fective manner Of pacifying the Mexican
revolutionist is to knock him down and
keen knocking him down until he has had
enough.
The simple. bald, unadorned fact is that
Mexico must be made to fear the power Of
the United States. She cannot be made to
love us. She will hate us even if we estab-
lish a stable government. restore peace and
prosperity in that country and then turn it
over to the Mevicans renovated and ready
for business. Fear is the idea; wholesome
permanent. abiding deep-seated fear. We
have given the observation-disclosures
poor-fellow system a fairly thorough try
out; It has cost us millions of dollars and
thousands of lives and the net result is, we
are face to face with the job we have been
trying to sideFtep for four years.
If 1t becomes necessary as 1t now APP
pears, to punish the Mexican nation as it
should be punished, there should be no
half way measures. Lives of American sol
diers must not be needess1y sacrificed by
dropping the pillow handle after we have
