Miller Forecasts Republican Victory
Clarence B. Miller. member OF Con-

made an exceptionally strong speech.
He was among the campaigners who
helped to roll up the Republican ma
torities In Maine, has assisted In many
other states and appeared again in
Deming the latter part OF the week.
He IL one Of q brilliant galaxy Of Re
publican speakers who are giving New
Mexico the strongest campaign on na-
tional issuee in Its history. Mr.. Mi
Ter declared. without reservation. thai
Hughes will be the next President;
that the next House will be Repuol..
can. but that he does not yet feel sure
that the Republicans will have ma

the next Senate Is In doubt. The re
suit here In New Mexico may detcr-
mine the complexion Of the next Sen
ate Of the United States. Under these
circumstances. I 40 not see how any
good citizen desiring to support
Charles q. Hughes and his sound Re
publican principles. can consistently
vote against Frank A. Hubbell."
Campaign Party Divides.
After the Ration meetings the party
separated, Hubbell and Hernandez 60
Ing to attend county conventions and
make speeches first In Sandoval coun-
~ and later In Rio Arriba county.
while Bursum went on to Wagon
Mound. where he was joined by ]. H
Wagner, candidate for superintendent:
Of public instruction. The trip from
Ration to Wagon Mound was made In
an automobile with stops at Maxwell.
Springer, and Colmer. though no meet
ings were held in those places. Bur.
sums main idea In this campaign Is
to meet the people In their own homes
and places Of business and to learn
from them what they desire and nee.
and from careful study cs the situa.
ton. what they ought TO have from a
progressive. aggressive ssa'> adr,inis'
