WATSON AND BLAN-
CHARD ENTER RACE
DIR. Watson Throws Hat in
Ring for Treasurer Nomi-
nation While Mr.. Blanchard
Asks to be Sheriff Nominee
"a AM IN THE RACE TO the
FINISH" SAYS BLANCHARD

Phil. Blanchard, who makes
official announcement of his can
didacy for the office of sheriff. in
this issue of the Outlook, needs
no recommendation to those who
know him, and are thoroughly
acquainted with his principle of
life and his substantially as a
citizen of this county. Mr.. Blan-
chard was born in the state of
Louisiana, but came to New Mexi-
cokwith his parents when welve
years of age, and has resided
here in Lincoln County for thirty
three years. He has been engag-
ed in the business of cattle and
sheep raising since 1886, at which
business he has made a pronounc-
ed success. Mr.. Blanchard has
never asked for an office before,
having preferred the private life,
but his circle of friends knows
no limit, and he stands preemi-
nently fitted to combat all viola
tors of the law of the common
wealth with a strong and un-
fiinching hand. He is brother
of Hon. w. K. Blanchard who
served in the first New Mexico
legislature, has high ideals of
civic control and principles which
stand for order and justice to all
people. We commend him 10
the voters without any reserva-
ton. When interviewed by the
Outlook man and asked abou:
the reports circulated that he had
withdrawn from the race, Mr..
Blanchard said, Il am in the
race for sheriff of this county
and have had no intention of
making a withdrawal as has been
rumored. This report was no
doubt started by certain of my
enemies to create a false impress
sion on the public. | will stay in
the campaign to the end. leave
the rest with my friends, the
voters of Lincoln County.

AGOOO CHOICE

The nomination last week of
II. B. Hamilton to succeed him
self as district attorney of this
district was without doubt the
strongest boost which the CON
vention at Santa Fe could have
given the cause of republicanism
10 this section of the state. The
convention by this nomination
has not only vindicated and un.
reservedly commended the record
of this efficient officer, but has
strengthened the party immeasur-
ably since it has put before the
people for another term of office
a man who has a record which is
absolutely unimpeachable, having
served in the capacity of prose-
cutting attorney without fear or
favor. Mr.. Hamilton has known
no friends in the honorable dis
charge of his duty, and his re-
election will make for a great
blow TO crime in all its forms
Show us a district itt)rney with
AN unbroken chain of friendship
and we will show you one who
has been lay in the discharge of
his sworn obligations to unmerci-
fully pursue and prosecute all
violations of the laws of the land.
Hamilton cannot but poll an en-
ormous vote in these four counties
Otero, Dona Ana, Lincoln. and
Torrance, and the convention
knew that his nomination was
the logical thing to do in the
perpetuation of its prestige in
this judicial district.

SENlT0RAL NOMINEE

James V. Tully's record was
fully commended by his unani-
nous nomination for State Sem
ator from the fifteenth senatorial
district, comprising the counties
of Otero, Lincoln, Socorro and
Torrance, when the republicans
considered his candidacy at their
convention in the Capital City
last week. II was fully under
stood that Lincoln County should
be honored with the nominee this
time, and the promise was made
good, and not only was this
county awarded an especial dis
tinction by this choice, but a
man was nominated who stands
pre-eminently fitted for this re-
sponsibile ofiice-one of the most
responsible in the gift of the
people. AS was mentioned in a
previous issue, upon the occasion
of Mr.. Tully's announcement, he
has had previous experience in
the New Mexico Legislature,
having served a term in the lower
house of that body. Further
more, he is a successful man, an
educated citizen, and one with
extreme popularity among all
classes of the people of the
County. He is a man of ability
and genuine craftsmanship, and
if his election follows this strong
commendation afforded him by
the state convention. he will bt
ever on the alert TO champion the
cause of this section of the great
state in particular and New Mexi
co in general, In Mr.. Tully we
have a successful combination oi
stockman, farmer, merchant anC
statesman. The people recognize
his ability and will no doubt cas-
an overwhelming vote in his be
half, which will most assuredlJ
be in their own behalf as well.

Or. WATSON FOR TREASURER

DIR. T. W. Watson is announc-
ing in this issue for reelection 10
the Office of treasurer which office
he has held with rare credit for
two terms AS was shown in
recent issue, through the publ
cation of the state record as 10
percentage of taxas collected in
the various counties, he has kept
Lincoln County at the head OF
the list for a number OF years
past. DIR. Watson took up his
residence at Lincoln a number Of
years ago where he was practic-
ing phsyician for about eight
years. Although practicing
physician and registered druggist
he has devoted his entire time
to the duties of his Office since
his first election, and his careful
attention has produced a record
for efficiency of which the citizens
Of this county may well be proud.
Moreover, DIR. Watson is a pro-
gressive booster of this county
and was among the first TO estah,
lish a substantial residence in
Carrizozo. He stands for com
munity betterment in every form
and always accords generous SUI
port TO all means of progress.
He stands solely upon his record
in office as basis for investiga-
ton by the voters who will award
the nomination for another tern
at the republican nominating
convention.

BURSUMHS SPEECH
OF ACCEPTANCE
Says Governor Mcdonald is a
Friend Of MIR. Mcdonald
and Always Demands Quick
Action in Land Matters
FORGOT MS OLD SLOGAN OF
LET THE PEOPLE RULE"

am not unmindful Of the high |
compliment you have paid me
and the expression of confidence
which you repose by selecting me
as your candidate for governor.
| accept this trust, and shall ex-
pend every energy to the utmost
Of my ability toward assisting in
carrying the Republican banner
to victory. With a united party,
aggressive and constant devotion
in behalf of our cause, we have
every reason to feel confident
that on the 7th day of November
next, at the close of the polls the
tn Republican ticket from top
to bottom. as nominated in this
convention, will be triumphant.
This is a Republican year. The
voters of the United States look
to the Republican party for a
constructive policy, for such ac-
ton as will promote the progress
and prosperity of the whole
people. This is but natural.
After nearly four years of Demo
cratic administration the Demo-
Gratis have been found wanting
in craftsmanship, in stability and
in vision and American citizeno
throughout this land feel humili-
ated at the results caused by the
vascillating, unstable, changeable
peace-at-f f~T price policy of
Woodrow Wilson. Never in the
history of the world has there
been so little respect in foreign
lands for the rights of American
citizens. The present chief ex-
ecutive of the nation has been on
all sides of all questions, and
while the people might be in
formed as TO his policy of today,
they would be perfectly safe to
assume that his policy of to-
morrow would be the reverse.
Vacillation and uncertainty in the
policies of government are cal
culated to create distrust, and
distrust means industrial depres-
sion. No Nation can prosper
without absolute confidence in
the stability Of the administration
OF the government. Here in this
state we have had nearly five
years of Democratic rule. The
people are tired and restless
of the do-nothing policy of Cover
nor Mcdonald. During these
five years not one sentence of
constructive legislation has been
proposed by your chief executive.
Under the constitution of this
state the legislature and the ex-
ecutive are constituted as the
law making body of the state,
the accepted theory being that
there should be cooperation and
consultation between the execu-
tive and the Legislature. Yet
during these five years not one
ounce of the spirit of cooperation
has been exhibited by the chief
executive of this state. The
policy of Governor Mcdonald has
been to shirk and shrink every
responsibility. He has been con
tent to draw his salary and sit
back on his dignity, finding
fault.with that which others have
done and to exercise his preroga-
tive of the veto.
My friends, no progress can be
made, no new development can
be expected, either in' governs
ment or industry, except by and
through a constructive policy. II
is only through a constructive
policy, 1t is only through this
sort Of a policy that mistakes are
ascertained. Mistakes we have
made in the past and mistakes
can only be rectifed through

FOR COUNTY SUPER
INTENDENT OF SCHOOLS
Mrs. w. l.. Gumm Announces
Candidacy for Office of
County Superintendent of
Schools
HAS A KNOWLEDGE OF CON-
DITI0Ns IN EACH DISTRICT

In another column will be found |
the announcement of Mrs. w. l..
Gumm az a candidate for the
Office of Superintendent of
Lincoln County. Mrs. Gumm
received her schooling in the
public schools Of st Louis and
Kansas City, Mo-, graduating
from the Central High School of
the latter place and later taking
a post graduate course in profess
sional work at the New Mexico
State Normal at Silver City.
For eight years she taught in
the graded schools of Kansas
City and since coming to Lincoln
County, in 1894, has been active
ly interested in the county
schools, teaching at first near
Angus on her fathers ranch,
then teaching three years at
White Oaks, three years in Lin
coin and four years in Carrizozo.
She has served four years as a
member of the county board of
examiners and two years as presi-
dent of the county teachers
association.
Since Mrs. Gumm has been
county school superintendent she
has attended every important
educational meeting in the state
and is now honored with the
positions of vice president (act-
ing chairman this year, of the
Educational Council, vice presk
dent of the county superinten-
dents section of the New Mexico
Educational A, sociation, and
president of the Women's Knife
and Fork Club all state organi-
cations,
During the time Mrs. Gumm
has been superintendent the
schools have grown from 40
rooms in 1911 taught by teachers
of whom l3 held 1st grade or
better certificates, IL held second
grade, 6 third grade and 10 per-
mits to 20 rooms in 1916, taught
by teachers of whom 81 hold 1st
grade or better certificates, 8
holding second grade, 3 third
grade and no permits.
Recognizing the power of
strong, well qualified teachers, it
has been Mrs. Gumm's constant
aim to have experienced teachers
in each room especially with the
primary classes, that the children
might start correctly in their
studies, making sure of a strong
foundation.
In these years twenty new
buildings have been built, some
in new districts and some to re-
place old school house. Four
have been remodeled to meet
modern ideas of lighting and
school needs, and ten have been
thoroughly repaired
With a thorough knowledge of
the conditions of each school dis
trict of this county, her acquain-
lance with the pupils, teachers
and patrons and familiarity with
school laws and customs, Mrs,
Gumm feels she can give the
county even better supervision
for the coming two years than
ever before and is asking for re-
election solely on her record as
an official.

GERMAN U-BoAT CAPTURED
Submarine That Sank Sussex Taken
With Crew by French.

London, April 1s.-aThe French
have captured the submarine which
torpedoed the Sussex and have made
prisoner the captain and crew." says
The Daily Mail.
The sinking Of the Sussex was one
of the important events which has
caused the present crisis between the
United States and Germany. The re-
port comes from France that U-boat
sailors captured there fear they will
meet death because of the feeling
over the German plan Of submarine
warfare.
