TIE LABOR VOTE.

Just now there Is a great deal OF
talk Of the labor vote" OF the Unit
cd states as though it were some
thing to be delivered in body TO this
or TO that candidate for office.
Tho union labor of the country
composcs a comparatively small part
of it, ana that vote Is by no means
united in its political affiliations. The
American workingman IL first Of all
an American citizen. Some working
men vote the republican ticket and
some vote the democratic ticket. Not
q few Of them vote the socialist ticket,
because they believe they see in the
collective commonwealth the policy
which eventually viii give to labor
what they believe to be its Just re-
ward
There is no union labor vote that
can be delivered in bunk 20 any par
~ or any candidate. That fact has
been demonstrated concIusivcly in
many campaigns, national ana state.
The republicans formerly had the ma
jority of II because Of the protective
tariff doctrine, and It Is believed this
yonr the democrats will have u ma
iority of it, because tho attitude Of
the administration has generally been
in harmony with the views Of the an
ion labor leaders.

example of how little the labor vote

cal party to put it over Daniel J

A PLEA TOR FAIRNESS.

This H. a year in which dirty poll
tics should be kept IN the background
This Is a new state Much in the
territorial history Of New Mexico was
doplorahlc and, as In all territorial
governments, unworthy men were Of
ten IN control
We have our character as a state
to build, our reputation viii be made
by ourselves. While certain latitude
is taken in all states during political
campaigns, there should be no resort
here 10 vlllif,raUon and personal
abuse. II udyertiscs us In the wrong
way.
For example, evidence vs. not Lack
ing that Governor MoDonald's admin
isration is to be subjected to unlus-
tIfiablc assault The people Of the
state know that his administration
has boon honest and as efficient as
hostile legislature would permit.
That Governor Mcdonald has made
some mistakes doubtless he would
himself acknowledge But the man
30 perfect as to be immune from mis-
takes has not yet been born in the
United states, or In Europe II we
Ind such man we would not know
what TO do with him. Probably we
would cruelty him. as Jesus was cru
Gifted In Asia two thousand years ago
Before the time OF Christ, Aristotle
said that II a perfect man were TO app
pear in the world probably. he would
be impaled
Tho wonderful record made by
President Wilson, record more
nearly perfect than that Of any other
head of this or any other government
during the past half ccntury--is the
subject Of bitter attach by whippeE'
snuppcrs who could not successfully
conduct a chicken ranch Of q hundred
hens, to say nothing Of nation of
more than one hundred million peo-
pie.
II mon are unworthy OF confidence,
they should be defeated for public
office II they are not capable of
dlscharRing with reasonable efficiency
the duties OF the office to which they
aspire, the people should turn them
down at tho polls; but those people
who are demanding perfect men for
office should move from earth where
their requirements can not be met
go heaven.
We can not hope for campaign
Of absolute cleanliness, Probably H.
would not be wise for MS to strive
for such fight hut we can have a.
campaign of fairness Of statement
and freedom from lies and yiuper-
aAon.

Fcw American voters take the
trouble to acquaint themselves with
either the history or the capabilities
Of the man they vote for for congress-
man. We mean for the lower house.
A general apathy toward the candi-
date prevails, an attitude apparently
Illogical, but eNplainable.
The average congressman is not an
important parsonage, because his
business Is not important When It
is known that less than ninety men
IN an Of the important places Of
power IN the house and practically d.
rect all legislation, that few members
are permitted 10 do any important
work during the first term, and that
nearly half OF the members never en-
Joy a second term, it viii be seen that
while some members are important,
the great majority of them might as
well remain AT home and draw their
pay.
