Next Week a Gay One

With the old town planning and
preparing for the entertainment of
the New Mexico Teachers Assocp-
ton there has been precious little
time for society events this week.
Scarcely anyone has thought of any
thing except what they are going
to d. aud who they are going to
entertain during the stay of the isl
tors next week, Many of the ladies
are assisting with the dinners and
banuuets to be served to various
branches and sections of the associa-
ton. Next week promises to be n
of the gayest in the history of Old
Santa Fe and time and expense will
be spared to show IL visitors
every courtesy and a good time.
There are two principal reasons Tor
the elaborate entertainment Santa
Fe will furnish; the first is that San
ia Fcans have a reputation far and
near for their generosity. and hospl-
tality, which will be maintained on
this occasion as in the past. and the
other is that Santa Fe appreciates
the teachers and the great work
they are doing and wants them to
return again for another meeting in
this city in the near future.

CANADA BARS PICTURE
REFLECTING ON RUSSIA
BUT 1T COMES HERE.

The thorough-going extent of the
implacable censorship set up by Eng.
land and her Allies as a result of the
World War was brought home to rep
resentatiYes of the film industry last
week when a decree was signed in
Ottawa, Canada, barring from exhibit
ton in the province, "The Suspect" a
fve-part Vitagraph photodrama, which
is being released through Wise,
Inc. This picture will be shown at
the Alcazar on Friday.
'The Suspect is spectacular and
graphic expose of the ruthless espion-
age system of Russia.
In handing down the decree, the
Canadian officials declared that "The
Suspect" was an obvious reflection
upon the Russian political system,
and therefore was detrimental to the
cause of the Allies. They explaind
that it has been their custom since
the inception of the war to condemn
all such pictures that reflected upon
any country helping to constitute the
Triple Entente.
The Canadians lamely attempted to
alleviate the effect of the decree,
however, by explaining that the film
would be allowed to be shown if GER
tain scenes and titles were eliminat-
e6, but when the Canadian represen-
Latives of the Wise read the list of
these eliminations, they threw up
their hands in hopeless despair.

Good Democratic Record.

The tariff is only part of the Un.
derwood revenue law. In reducing
taxes on consumption, of which the
consumer pays far more than the gov.
eminent receives, and substituting a
tax on incomes, which falls on the
well-to-do in proportion to their ability
to contribute to the support Of the gov.
eminent, the Democratic party has
been true to its promises, faithful to
It's traditions and guided by the best
opinion of expert economists, The law
provided not only sufficient revenue
but surplus that covered the years
costs of the Panama canal, until the
great war disarranged our industries
and interfered radically with our i'm.
ports.
The federal reserve banking system
now has few critics. Financial opin.
ion Is very generally warm in its com.
mendation of reform of the currency,
the need Of which was repeatedly
pressed by the business world upon
Republican congresses, but always
pressed in vain. The Republicans
evaded their duty; the Democrats did
it, and did it uncommonly well.

Couer Manure Box
and Garbage Can

A proper system Of manure disposal
is more important than all other meas
ures combined as a method Of con-
trolling the fly nuisance. A proper
method of garbage collection and dis
posal Is next in Importance. The gar
bage should be drained, wrapped In
paper and collected in fly-proof metal
bucket. The bucket should be washed
at intervals with lye soap and water
and then sponged with kerosene in
water.
The foregoing advice is from the IA
NOUS sanitary authority, DR.. w. A.
Evans of Chicago. In our local cam,
paign we should utilize this informa-
ton to the utmost. It has long been
recognized that swatting the fly would
never rid the community of his whole
tribe forever more. We have learned
that we must make war on him early
in the season by getting rid OF his
breeding places and his natural
sources Of food supply-filth.
Some of us are inclined to grumble
that campaigning against flies Is
mighty troublesome. Well, the grum'
blers will find it less troublesome to
campaign effectually against flies than
to nurse q member Of the family
through spell Of typhoid fever-ane
much less expensive.

HOUSEFLY nests IN
F|LTH.-HELP TO
KILL HIM

The housefly is foul and dangerous
little pest. The female lays her eggs
in manure, In human excrement or In
the flesh of dead and rotting animals,
never anywhere else. The eggs hatch
into maggots and the maggots feed on
the filth until they sprout wings and
become flies. The flies swarm into
our homes, bringing with them the
germs Of many especially
typhoid, consumption and dysentery
which they deposit on our food.
Many of our homes were saddened
last year by death resulting from dis
eases spread by flies. Therefore the
housefiy is our deadly enemy and we
ought to kill him off as far as possible
before warm weather comes. To do
this effectually will require the coop
Grafton of the whole community.
Cleanliness, generally speaking. Is the
fy's greatest enemy, but II one man
cleans up his place-removing all
barnyard filth, keeping garbage cans
covered, etc.-and his neighbors on
either side do not follow suit, the one
man will not be protected from flies
and disease.
This war on flies is job for the
whole town, and it Is a big one. It is
suggested that our local authorities or
some Of our active citizens call meet
ing and make plans at once to start
the campaign for fly determination.
Let us enlist the aid Of the health Of
ficers, the physicians, the merchants,
the lawyers, the mechanics, the wom-
en- and the boys and girls.
1t will be necessary to have a num-
Der Of committees to look after the
many angles of the work and see that
proper preventive measures are taken
to remove the opportunities for flies
to lay eggs and hatch them. Swatting
the fly is ineffective-you only kill
one fly at a swat. But II you begin
earlier by spraying manure piles and
the contents of clubhouse vaults with
kerosene or with chloride of lime, so
that fly eggs will not hatch in these
masses, you prevent the birth of mil
lions Of flies.
The state board Of health will be
glad to send us all kinds of informa-
ton helpful in carrying on a fly war,
IL our local doctors have none on hand.
After the campaign organization is
formed, about the first thing to do is
to get reliable information and put it
In the hands of our people.
Who will make the first move to
start the campaign?

Three Years Of Democracy.

Mr.. Wilson has been president for
three Of the most difficult years in the
history of the country since the close
Of General Washington's administra-
ton, and excepting only the periods OF
the second war with England and the
Civil war. Since the government was
established and precedents set by the
flrst president, and excepting only the
more serious war periods we have
been through, no president has had
difficulties even remotely approaching
those with which Mr.. Wilson has had
to contend.
With due regard for the unprece-
dented difficulties and embarrassments
Of the time. President Wilson and the
Democratic party have discharged
their respective duties with q high
intelligence. broad comprehension,
and an eye single to the interests and
the duties Of the American nation.

the road builders. When roads are
built with borrowed money it is, of
course, especially important to avoid
this error. On the other hand, how
ever, it is not necessary to regard the
total cost of surfacing road as a
temporary improvement. Much of the
surfacing may be classed as perma-
nent investment, for it Is becoming
more and more common to have sur
faces built in two courses, the lower
of which is as much a permanent fea-
ture of construction as the grading
itself. This is particularly true Of
those types of road that are built with
concrete foundations for bituminous
macadam, brick or asphalt surfaces.
It is probably conservative to regard
40 per cent of the first-construction
cost Of macadam or more enduring
pavements as permanent investment.
1t is seldom nowadays that hard roads
are permitted to wear into the founda-
ton course of the surfacing.
Where proper maintenance is as
sured it is safe to say that an average

WILL KEEP CONTROL
President Wilson and Democratic
House Sure.
Representative Doremus, Fresh From
Travel Throughout the Country,
Tells OF the Sentiment
OF the People.

Prediction that President Wilson
and Democratic house will be re-
turned by the people at the November
elections@is made in statement made
public by Representative F. e. Dore-
mus, chairman of the Democratic con-
gressional compaign committee. A
mingling among the people Of the
country can do nothing but develop
this opinion, he says. Following is the
statement:
In certain inspired quarters sedu-
lous attempts are being made to Gre
ate the impression that despite the
tremendous popularity Of President
Wilson the Democrats entertain slight
hope OF winning the next congress.
One indication Of this propaganda is
shown by the wide publicity that has
attended the announcements of Rep
resentatives Page of North Carolina,
Eagle of Texas and Sherwood of Ohio
that they will not seek reelection.
"Of course the North Carolina and
Texas districts are sure to send Dem
ocrats to the Sixty-fifth congress, and
the same may be said of the Toledo
district. 1t can safely be predicted
that Representative Sherwood will be
succeeded by Democrat. In fact, !
consider the election of Democrat
In the Toledo district as one Of the
certainties Of the campaign.
If any man doubts what the SEN
timent of this country is today, he
should go out and mingle with the
people, as I did for two weeks. No
matter in what section Of the country
he may go, he will come home firm
In the conviction that President VIII
son and Democratic congress in
sympathy with him will be overwhelm-
ingly elected in November.
Il know of but one way to accu-
rately determine public sentiment, and
that is to talk face to face with those
who do the voting. Any man who
cares to employ that test will be con-
vinced Of the truth of what / say.
What impresses me more than any
thing else is the assurance that has
come to me recently of support from
Republican and Independent sources.
Men who have never voted the Dem
ocratic ticket before frankly avow
their intention to vote and work for
q congress in sympathy with Mr.. Will
son because they realize that the pres
ident's hands would be tied IL a Re-
publican congress were elected.
In 1914 for the first time In many
years the party in power retained
Its control OF congress following gen.
eral revision of the tariff. All the In
locations are that this majority will be
substantially increased this year and
notable gains made in the entire group
Of doubtful districts"

No Filth-No Flies!


Flies and filth go together. No filth
no flies! About the only good thing
you can say about the fly is that his
presence should stimulate you to hunt
up the place where he was born and
destroy it so that it may breed nc
more of his kind.
Fly swatting may be a popular pas
time. It has been talked about much
So far, it has proved ineffective. The
well-meaning person, applying the
swatter at every opportunity, kills one
fly at time. The removal Of the con
tents Of a single manure box will swat
millions of them at blow.
Screens and swatters are a good
thing, but a clean neighborhood is the
best. Get busy!

In expanding money raised by the
sale of highway bonds, highway COM
missioners should distinguish care
fully between the permanent and the
perishable features Of the road.
Foundations, drainage structures,
alignment and grades are in general
fairly permanent features which
should be looked upon in the light Of
an investment. If these features do
not comply with certain standard,
1t will be poor economy to spend mon
ey on transitory improvements such
as hard surfaces, which must, at con-
siderable expense, be renewed from
year to year. In the same way, it Is
manifestly poor policy to build an ex-
pensive surface on defective grades
with poor alignments and short-lived
drainage features.
Even when much of the money ex-
pended upon a highway has gone into
the permanent features, there is still
danger that the cost of repairs and
maintenance will be overlooked, or at
least sighted, in the calculations Of
