Bursum Will Win

Holm 0. Bursum of Socorro was
nominated for governor at the San
ia Fe convention last week on the
first ballot, and his nomination was
then made unanimous. This was the
second time for Mr.. Bursum to be
nominated for the office of governor
with an enthusiasm that attested
both his personal popularity and his
political strength.
That Mr.. Bursum will win this
time there is no room for reason
able question He was beaten tor
the same office five years ago, to
be sure. but conditions then were
very different from those that exist
now. Then, five thousand pro-
pressive votes, drawn principally
from republican sources, were cast
against the republican ticket, and
because of bitter factional fights
two strong republican counties
gave big democratic majorities;
now. those conditions have ceased
to exist-the progressive voters
have practically all returned to their
former political allegiance, and there
are no longer any republican fac
t;ons in Bernalillo and Sandoval
counties. Therefore, Mr.. Bursum
will win.
As to the kind OF an admins
tration to be expected of Mr.. Bur-
sum when he becomes governor, his
we'll known breadth of view and con-
.4ructive ideas constitute the best
evidence. These qualities of his are
we'll exemplified in his speech OF
acceptance, wherein he pledged HIM
self that in the event of his election
he would advocate and promote cer'
tain broad measures that he consid-
cred greatly beneficial to the public
welfare. Among these measures
were the reclaiming of waste lands
in the Rio Grande valley, an an
nuaf exhibition of the resources OF
the state, better road laws, laws tor
more equitable and efficient taxa
ton, a budget system, improved
educational facilities, etc. etc

housen's fight on DR.. Shuler was in
reality personal one, it was
prompted by selfishness. Kohlhous-
en- had been mentioned as guber-
material timber; it went around for
weeks as a joke, but he evidently
took it seriously. AT the county
convention in Springer last Satur-
day that boom failed to materialize
and with the mention OF DR. Shuler
he went straight up in the air; then
the power of his illegal proxies
were brought into evidence to de-
feat the will of the convention. He
failed to see where another than
himself was entitled to any recog-
milton, any honor at the hands of
that convention. If Kohlhousen
can't rule he will seek to ruin, and
his methods are each day lessening
the opportunity for Democracy in
Colfax county With him as coun-
ty chairman, practicing methods of
rregularity and abuse of those who
do not follow him, it will be i'm
possible for the Democrats of this
county to elect a single county Of
ficial in November-and hundreds OF
Democrats are aware of this truth.
With his elimination harmony can
be restored and the party's former
strength will prevail.
He has sought to discredit men
long in active party service, and in
this he has created a large and in
active list, which is still growing
Numbers have been driven out oi
the party by him.-Springer Stock

Frank A. Hubbell.

Frank A. Hubbell.
With the selection OF Hon. Frank
A. Hubbel as the Republican candi-
date for the United States senate,
the Republicans of this state made
the best selection possible, as will
be shown by the vote this fall
Mr.. Hubbell has some enemies,
some OF them to be proud Of, and
they have done and said everything
possible to defeat his nomination.
There has been no attempt upon the
part of his friends to deny the truth.
He was not the candidate of the
special interests, as they were all
against him in the convention, he
was not the candidate of the old
guard because the organization was
against him during his pre-nominat-
ing campaign, and with those ele-
ments of any party on one side, a
winner must have had some support
particularly as the special interests
of the Democratic party were lend
ing all possible assistance to the
special interests of the Republican
party to defeat the man. Mr. Hub
bell was nominated because he was
the candidate of the real business
interests of the state, the thousands
and thousands of men engaged in
farming, stock raising and general
business wanted Hubbell because he
was actually representative of their
interests.
r.Hubbell is a real developer of
the resources of his state, as he
farms, raises live stock, and feeds
live stock, doing all these things OF
a profit and to the benefit of New
Mexico. When he produces new
dollar he puts it back into New
Mexico enterprises, and it is truth
fully said OF him that with consi-
derable wealth, accumulated by per-
sonal endeavor, he has no invest
ments outside of his own state.
These are some of the reasons
for the remarkable strength shown
by Mr. Hubbell against odds sup
posed to be overwhelming by even
the practical politicians, and he sec
ured the support of his delegates
by straight, clean fighting, absolute
ly upon his own personality and
accomplishments.
Any man who can do all these
things for himself, and then organ
ize his strength SO as to meet and
defeat the powerful and effective or
ganization of the Republican party,
will never be a drag on any ticket,
but, on the other hand, must give it
strength and encouragement.
All during the campaign Mr.. Hub
bell refused to attack any opponent.
He insisted that he was candi-
date on his own merits, and not
because of the faults of his oppon-
ents, if they had any, and no man
can say that he took any unfair
advantage, not even in the heat of
battle.
And now he will gather his re-
ward, because the party is fast get
ting behind him and will give him
such loyal support as will pile up
a tremendous Republican majority,
not only for Mr.. Hubbell, but for
every candidate on the ticket-I as
Cruces Citizen.
