People Want Republican Government.
The heads of the ticket have COW
! cred San Juan, Taos, Mora and Guada-
lupe counties. They have been re-
ceived everywhere with hearty vol
come and cordial approval. Their
meetings have been attended by
great crowds and the people nave
shown in emphatic ways that New
Mexico demands restoration of the
Republican party in both state and ma
tional administrations.
1T may be said with some assur
ance that the Republican party of
New Mexico is united as it has never
been before" said Mr.. Hubbell today
in discussing the trip and the situa-
ton in the state. "All of the reports
coming to headquarters are satisfac-
tory and we have been deeply inn
pressed, first by the uhaniIlity of
sentiment among Republicans and
! second by their activity in behalf of
success for Hughes and Fairbanks
and for our state ticket. State com
! mitteemen, county chairmen, precinct
chairmen, and the whole rank and file
of our party are taking an active,
working interest such as we have
1over known before at this early
stage Of a long cGnpalEn. In Taos,
Mora and Guadalupe counties, where
we have been for the past sixteen
days. the people ore with us. They
are for our candidates Individually,
but more important than that, tEev
