MANY FROM CAPITAL
IN HOLY NAME LINE

Washington members Of the HOLY

great parade In Baltimore yesterday
were enthusiastic today over the show
ing made in the Monumental City by
the District contingent.
More than 1900 from Washington and
its immediate environs took part in the
pageant, despite the fact that a large
number Of children were barred at the
eleventh hour. owing to the infantile
paralysis situation.
They were more than usually compli-
mented when Bishop Corrigan and his
attendant, Father Merritt. fell In with
the Warrington organization and
marched with John Hadley Doyle and
his stan to Corpus Christi Church. The
bishop told Mr.. Doyde that he was
proud OF the representation OF the Dis
trict-by far the largest out-of-town
delegation ever sent 70 q similar cele-
bration.

Nearly 1000 schools, representing half as
many separate communities, have already
arranged for a pageant or dramatic perform
ance in commemmoration of the Goth ami,
versary Of Shakespeare's death, according
to figures complied by the bureau OF educa-
ton OF the department of the interior. Al
though the actual anniversary occurs in
April. 1916, celebrations are to be held
throughout the year. Many elementary and
secondary schools will this year devote their
entire commencement program to a Shakes
poaFe pageant or play; and a number of the
summer schools will take advantage of the
opportunity to give outdoor performances of
plays by Shakespeare or about him.
In order to assist schools and colleges in
planning. celebrations, the bureau of educa-
ton, in cooperation with the Drama League
of America, has issued a bulletin giving
practical suggestions as to kinds of celebra-
tons, type performances, lists of dances,
and designs for simple costuming for Shake
spearian plays. The bureau has distributed
copies of this bulletin to all city school SUI
perintendents, to principals of public and
private secondary schools, presidents OF col
leges, normal schools, and other institutions;
and arrangements have been made to furn.
ish copies at a nominal cost to school teach
'ers aud pupils.

1t Isn't Done

The Morning Journal states, with an as
sumption of authority, that If Joshua S. Ray
nolds were elected United States senator
from New Mexico he would not qualify.
The New Mexican doesn't speak with any
authority whatever on this matter, save to
publish the fact that it is widely believed
that Mr.. Reynolds candidacy is a POSSIBLE
'ity. Tho wish may be father to the thought
in many instances; it is a most commenda-
Bile wish.
The New Mexican, however, does not be-
lieVe that any citizen of New Mexico, Mr..
Reynolds especially, would refuse to qualify
If given the highest honor in the gift of the
state; and it is hardly complimentary to
any citizen to say that he would do so.
Such things "aren't done.'
Meanwhile, whatever Mr.. Reynolds feel
ings in the matter, it isn't going to hurt for
the people of New Mexico to think about
the possibility of such a candidacy. Espe-
cially do we recommend 1t to the Republican
party for its serious and thoughtful consid-

for the colonel thought, no doubt, Of heavy

Fair Warning
albuquerque Herald.l

Albuquerque Herald
Eliminating all leyity in connection with
the sheriff Of Bernalillo county, his duties
and his needs in motor vehicles, it is now
time for Albuquerque people TO say a few
plain words to Sheriff Romero or any other
county politician who shows too strong a
tendency to NEEDLE in the administration of
this city's business.
There was once a very powerful county
boss in Bernalillo county. He is now a can
didate for the United States senate. To be
exactly specific, his name is Frank A. Hub
bell. In the gentle art Of bossing MT. Hub
bell in his palmy days made Sheriff Romero
at his best-or worst-look like a willing
slave.
Mr.. Hubbell grew so strong that he IN
dertook TO run the city of Albuquerque,
along with his other duties. He came very
near to doing 1t for a very little while.
Then one day the people of this town grew
weary of it. They arose and threw Mr..
Hubbell into the discard. They not only
eliminated him from any active manage
ment of city affairs, but they deprived him
Of his county Office and his job as boss.
Sentiment in Albuquerque today is az q
stage where Just a trifle more active inter
ference in this city's government by Sherin
Romero and his associates N the county
machine will cause an uprising which WIZ
do to Mr.. Romero and his friends an tnat
was done to Mr.. Hubbell.
1t is a fair warning. If the county ma
chine operators do not heed it promptly
some signs of the uprising are likely 10 be
seen in the b~alloting next Tuesday.

Governor Mel Donald and
the National Guard
(Demiug Headlight

The frantic efforts that are being made to
have the New Mexico National Guard placed
Ia readiness TO meet a possible call to act
IN the defense Of the country recall some
pertinent facts about the ATTEMPT of Gov.
ernor Mcdonald to have this accomplished
four years ago, when he tried to have a bill
passed In the state legislature nFoviding for
an emergency appropriation that might be
used by the governor In case affairs develop,
ed as some people at that time believed they
might In Mexico, making it necessary Tor
the state OF New Mexico to act promptly
ana decisiveIy IN the protection Of her PEG
|pie,
dured House Bill No, los, can act to pro-
vide~fusda to enable the governor to exer-
else his powers as commanderin-chief OF
the military forces Of the state.y
This bill eprovided an appropriation OF
about $4,000, to be used by the governor
IN case OF necessity for the National Guard,
such part of it as might be required, and
the remainder to be used at his discretion.
This really was to provide means for patroll-
ing the southern part of the state in case
conditions developed here that would make
it unsafe for the people of this locality.
On May I, 1919, this hill passed the house
by a vote OF 80 to /. It then went to the
senate, and so far as can be discovered,
nothing further was ever heard Of it. Moth
ing is shown In the senate Journal that any
action was ever taken in regard to the bill,
and the presumption is that II was allowed
to die in committee.
Had this measure been passed as Govern
on Mcdonald desired at that time the Ma
tional Guard OF New Mexico would have
been In a better state OF preparedness to.
day to handle any difficulties that might
arise, but the short-sighted opposition to
the governors policies and the deliberate
blocking OF a measure that had HIS approx
al have left the state militia in a state of
unreadiness at a time when, above all 9TH
ers. it should have been in the highest pos
sibles state Of efficiency.
