In the COngTesaIO Record OF the

gresham Cooper on the flood disaster
in West Virginia and the resolution
offered for the relief of the sufferers
therefrom, In the Monday issue of

Cooper takes in his congressional
work, a fact which has been fire.
uuently commented upon in this cor
respondence until now it is a we'll
known fact to the people of West Wiz
gintg that there is no better represen-
tatiye from their state than the able
and industrious Mercer county con-
gresham.
In concluding his remarks on the
food sufferers of West Virginia Mr.,
Cooper said; "Let us hope that the
spirit shown here today--a spirit OF
co-operation and aid, a disposition
shown by the House Of Representa-
tivos to send sympathy in substantial
form to those needing aid in time of
distress-will revive the spirit OF
hone in the hearts of the afflicted
people and impress the nation with
the fact that while the national gov
ernment expects every man in time
of danger to the republic to respond
to the call of his country, with his
life if necessary, still in time of dis
+ross the government will respond in
the same spirit to aid and assist its
citizens when some great calamity be-
| falls them"
In his speech on naval prepared
mes, he spoke in favor of it in the
nresent uncertain conditions Of in
ternation affairs, but chidedthe ma

military preparedness which was
forced upon them by Republican az

Mr.. BurSum Makes
Another Break; Road Talk
AS Usual is Disastrous

Mr.. fl. @. Bursum, whose misrepresentation in this cam
|paign is becoming classic, said in a speech at Roy on Saturday
night that:
"Two hundred thousand dollars remaining from the half
million bond issue has been reposing IN friendly banks, but is
being used TOWARD the eve of election to promote and Advance
the Democratic chances Of success"
This was a highly unfortunate, not to say extremely fool
ish remark for Mr.. Bursum to make.
Mr.. Bursum knows full well, as all the state knows, that
in order for the people Of New Mexico to get 100000 out Of
their 100000 road bond issue, it was publicly arranged to
have proceeds Of the bond issue remain at interest in
banks until they could earn enough to help make up the diff
ference between the par value of the bonds and what they
brought in the market. For this purpose also the counties
arranged to contribute each two per cent of its pro rata share
of the bond proceeds
Mr.. Bursum knows, as all the state knows, that W. g.
Kelly Of the bond buyers, in a public statement said that
4 contracts and subscriptions had been received from banks to
cover the difference between the market and the par value
which guaranteed to the state treasurer the full 100000 in
cash, together with accrued interest from date of SALE
Mr.. 'Bursum knows, as all the state knows, that this ar
rangement alone made it possible for the people to get the full
value of their bonds, while sufficient sums to. prosecute the
road building steadily could be Immediately and continuously
available.
Mr.. Bursum knows as all the state knows that this wise
arrangement, after being thoroughly explained to the people,
became eAbIemely populdL ~ Cnas inc aunlniS-
tration has earned the gratitude of the people for making the
half million dollars which they voted begin work at once build
ing roads at no extra eventual cost to the taxpayers.
Mr.. Bursum knows, as all the state knows, that he and
his legislature did not intend to make it possible to sell these
bonds; that Mr.. Bursum's Republican ring sought to enioin
the plan to make the money available; that it was necessary
to mandamus Mr.. Bursum's state auditor before he would
transfer this money to the banks.
Mr.. Bursum says this money has been reposing in
'friendIy BANKS
If so, 1T has been drduing interest, s0hich cannot be said
of the huge sum of three-quarters Of a million dollars de-
posted Nth a Republican state officer and BY him deposited
in hhat Mr.. BurSum calls friendly banks" WITHOUT
EARNING INTEREST FOR n STATE And do you sup
pose banks carrying such an amount Of money at no cost R

shipping circles caused by the actiYl-
ties Of the submarine commerce raid
er at the bend Of the Great North At
uantic Highway off Nantucket. If any
thing, the disappearance Of the U-boat

ent location increased the precautions
taken by owners and agents OF vessels

Transatlantic liners and freight
steamers approached this port today

far out Of the customary line. Car
goes worth millions are at stake. The

raid and the consequent advance OF
the insurance rates on Transatlantic
