Cronemeyer Blankets Being Sold
 While litigation over the estate of Curt Cronemeyer has not yet come to an end, the court has decided to convert all holdings of the estate into cash, and has ordered the sale of some thou sands of fine Navajo blankets.
 These blankets have been brought to Albuquerque and have been put on sale in the old Dunbar office, southeast corner of Gold avenue and Third street. Prices will necessarily be low so as to close the stock out quickly. There are all sizes, shapes and qualities in the lot, and no finer display was ever seen in town.
 Curt Cronemeyer was an h. dian trader at Allentown on the New Mexico-Arizona line. Some thing over year ago he was murdered, and since then the estate has been in litigation be- tween relatives of Cronemeyer in Germany on the one side and an alleged Navajo wife and chill dren on the other side. -Albu- oueroue Journal.

pemocraoy and rs PLEDGES.

Shouting for the Wilson administration, the
World-Herad asserts that THE democratic
party has devoted itself to making good on its
platform pledges" It has by abandoning most
Of them.
Principal OF Its promises in Its Baltimore
platform was retrenchment in government ex-
pense. II has violated this pledge by contnn-
ally increasing appropriations. each succeeding
budget providing for record-breaking totals. 1t
pledged it's candidate to the principle Of a single
term, and now proposes to renominate him. It's
leaders admit IT'S experiment with the tariff was
a blunder, which they are now trying to retrieve
by going back TO the republican principle Of
protection.
The democratic party brought prosperity
to the country" up 10 the outbreak OF the war
by closing down mills and factories. checking
all enterprise, disturbing business OF all kinds
and forcing MS 10 the verge of a panic, only
averted by the circumstance Of a world-eonflict
which has brought artificial Initiation along GER
tain lines TO meet the needs Of the European
armies.
The democratic party promised TO reduce
the cost OF living. but necessities come higher
today than ever. II promised 10 protect Amer
lean shipping by e1emptlng American Yessels
in coastwise commerce from Panama canal
tolls and went directly against It's promise, a
miserable surrender TO the demand Of British
ship owners.
The democratic party found a surplus Of
$4,000, 900 In the treasury accumulated by the
republicans, 30 roundiy denounced because OF
extravagance; within eighteen months this was
turned into a deficit OF $1,000, ,000 net
change OF $3.50. 900 900 for the first year and
a half Of democratic administration. II has
devised many new forms OF taxation. and yet
the ordinary expenditures Of the government
are running ahead OF its revenues.
It's wonderful achievement in the way Of
constructive legislation ends with the passage
OF 3 banking law, based on the Aldrich BILL
denounced by every democratic leader until
taken up by tho president It has sought 10
abandon the F1lipinos TO the mercy Of colony
grabbing world powers. It's promises to pro-
vide for the defense OF the country are being
proved ag hollow as any Of It's other empty pre-
lenses. And the biggest joke Of all is It's dis
regard OF It's specific sacred pledge guaranteeing
that all its platform pledges we're 10 be scrupu-
lously kept.
The president himself has changed front at
least once on almost every important issue since
entering the White House. Yes. indeed, the
record Of promlse-making and promise-breaking
OF the democratic party Is one that challenges
attention, which II will receive from the voters
In November.
