Another feature of the political cam

Election of One Certain.

The election of at least one of the
candidates for the Office above United
States senator being certain, and also
that of two senators assured is caus-
ing the state to be watched closely by
political leaders, and will make it one
of the hardest-fought backgrounds OF
the campaign. Locally every party has
placed a full state ticket in the field.
Mr.. Hanly is former republican gov
ernor of the state and since he left that
Office has practiced law and fought the
liquor interests. He consented to and
was the progressive candidate for gov
ernor, having been nominated It the
March primary. When the progressive
national convention failed to include a
prohibition plank in its platform how
ever, Mr.. Hanly withdrew from the
state ticket. He is fiftythree years old
His residence is only few blocks from
those of Ny Fairbanks and Vice Presi-
dent Marshall.

Charles l. FraiIey Discusses
"Unpreparedness" for Asso-
citation for National Service.
BEGINNING TO TAKE HOLD
OF YOUTH OF U. S., HE SAYS
Recalls Early History of Navy, U.s.
ing It as Example to Show Need
for More Ships.

The idea of military training for the
youth of the nation is now beginning
to take hold" says Charles L. Frailey
of this city, discussing "unprepared-
ness" for the Association for National
Service. But it should meet with the
active and cooperative approval of ev-
cry citizen Of the Union as a means of
establishing a trained citizen soldiery
to protect the country not only from
financial and material loss. but from a
far greater and more terrible calamity.
1t Is, Of course, automatic that the in
dustries and wealth of the nation
should be able to look to the armed
forces of the government with conf
dence that their training, equipment
and ability will be amply able to pro-
tect them. instead of their being sacri-
feed to teach a lesson with which we
should already be thoroughly acquaint
ed, II not as the result of Intelligent
thinking, certainly by reason of ex
perience in our past struggles.
For example. while we may look
with pride upon the achievements of
our little navy in the early history of
the nation, we should not forget that
with Algiers. country maintaining
a horde of sea banditti. and paid
= disgraceful tribute to that govern
ment because. owing 70 opposition to
increasing our navy, we were not in
a position to protect in any other way
our growing commerce from the in
roads made by its pirates. We needed
six warships. They were finally built
when the nation was fully aroused to
their necessity. and depreciation was
forcibly brought home to us, but in
the years elapsing before their con-
struction was authorized and COM
pleted we paid enough protection
money and tribute to Algiers to defray
the cost of these six ships-a lesson
surely that the American people would
do well to study. Indeed, our naval
history should be studied by every
citizen and correctly and interestingly
taught in all the schools. And by cor
rectly I mean that the pride in our
naval victories and the heroes who
won them should not be allowed to
obliterate other facts not altogether
to our credit and from which lessons
might be learned which would prevent
boastihg and the false sense of Sc
curity growing out of it.

En- route to Washington DIR. Coughlin

fed to use wise discretion in the dis
tribution of speakers to the various

their work in spreading an educational
campaign is to be of paramount i'm
portance.
Il am satisfied with the purpose and
ability of the new chairman to bring
about the highest degree of efficiency
in the organization said DIR. Coughlin.
for he is giving every indication of
having a thorough and ready grasp of
all the complex questions that confront
him daily. One cannot help being i'm
pressed by his earnestness and alert
ness.
The country may look forward to
one of the most aggressive and educa-
tional campaigns it has ever had" he
continued. The democratic party
! while in power has proved a party OF
achievement. 1t has stood and is stand
ing for great vital principles. In the
statute book of the nation has been
recorded in the last four years laws
that have destroyed the old feudal sys-
TEN and placed in the hands of the peo-
pie their own government. 1t seems
incredible that in the short span of
less than four years such stupendous
changes could be brought about in the
legislative poIicyof our government

IF this administration had done
nothing else than place on the statute
books the federal reserve act it would
be entitled to everlasting gratitude of
every one who desires to see safe and
sound financial policy. The shifting
policies of the past have brought ruin

a lifetime of honest endeavor Today
they have a substantial standing. and
with the rural credits system the farm

can be utilized to give him credit and
escape the hitherto savage penalty of

new law gives the farmer will assist in
no small measure in making the coun-

Problem of Distribution.

THE government should have sepa-
rate department to encourage and
supervise the distribution of Mexicans.
Such a department has been planned.
but SUFFICIENT funds have not been sup
piled The problem OF distribution is
more difficult here than at most ports
of entry, because so many of the Mexi-
cans expect to return to their native
soil as soon as peace Is restored. and
in the meantime they prefer to remain
along the border.
There are about IS 900 Mexicans in
FL Paso, most of whom are living in
one section of the city nearest the Dor
der. generally called Chihuahua.
Little Chihuahua Their congregation
| in that section has given this city its
| principal health problem. The chief
! difficulty is to prevent overcrowding.
/ to seek out dark and unventilated
| rooms and to keep up constant search
| for contagious diseases. Despite the
| constant danger of the spread of ty
| phus and other diseases from 'Chihua-
| huita.' and especially from the newly
| arrived immigrants, this city has been
able to keep such contagious diseases
| as have been found from spreading to
any great extent.
| THE FL Paso board of health has
| adopted a radical but extremely effec-
| tive method for letting sunshine and
| air into windowless rooms. The ten
ants are moved out and a few workmen
with axes and spades speedily demol-
| ish the huts. 1t Is not difficult for
the landlord to put up new adobe huts
which are made to conform to the
| health regulations of the city. One
| hundred such huts were torn down
| last week.
