omma and put q period there.
Sv--
WE ANATHEMATIzE those who
Capitalize Every other word or two;
there's always . place for The Lower
Case; let your caps be scarce and Few.

DO NOT write your facts like chicken
tracks, OF vet like scrambled eggs; make
It short and sweet--one side Of the
-sheet-~the editor humbly begs.
THERE ARB many words, both nouns
and WORDS in the blooming dictionary;
don't try to use them all at once; it's
very difficult, very.
If YOUR tale is long don't bring the
song to the desk at half-past four;
makes an awful mess, when we so to
press-you q hear the printers roar.
WRITE 1T nice and clean on q typ
ing machine and bring 1t in bright and
early; the eaitor's smile will spreAd for
a mile and he won't be mean and churly.

WHEN THE printer guy turns it into
pi and puts 1t in upside down with the
name spelt wrong and plays ping-pong
with our edforts-do not frown-
OH DO not beet, in tones of grief,
that the editor iis a mutt, a ibonehead
dense and q boob immense, a simp and
a brainless nut " -
BUT JUST drop in with a pleasant
grin, and q yisage bright and bland-no
diatribe, for the sharried scribe--but
shake him by the hand.

AND NEXT issue you will note the
following: "Mr. John Smith, our es-
teemed fellow townsman, calls our at
tention to q slight error in the an
nouncement of bis engagement. 1t
t~ranspires that the name of his fiancee
is not Mary Jones, as enormously re-
ported, but Sallie Perkins, and that in
stead of being the efficient waitress at
Lupe's restaurant she is a ~wallsknown
society leader of our fair city. Mr..
Smith is n Of the ablest and most val
uable citizens of Santa Fe, undoubtedly
the handsomiest man in New Mexico
and is prominently mentioned for the
~governorship."
Mr.. H. B. HOLT, known to fame as
'The Floorwalker," believes. according
to his Las Cruces paper, that he is the
logical man for United States senator.
Curious what Authorizations you some
times get in Republican old guard poll
tics.
BEING THE Logical Candidate, do
you suppose he will be ~triumphantly
elected by the overwhelming majority
Of two votes?
AND DOES he ~appraise at their true
worth his merits as a potential clock
stopper in the United States senate?
BUT AFTER all, isn't it possible,
don't you suppose, that Herbert Is
slightly prejudiced?
Or SOOIlOE, ~ LIE WoHlcu Noto vi
U. S. Senator
WELL, HERBERT is certainly strong
for the ladies.
HERBERT'S PAPER also refers neat
ly to those sterling Progressives, Bur
sum and Lindsey
.Hf AHaFH --------- AMH NN 81 EsWFH
BUT SAYS nothing about those ram
pant Old Guard Republicans, Hagerman,
Rodey, Ely, Otero and Marcos G. De
Baca.
AND is 1t not cruel to seek to make
one laugh immoderately when ones lip
is sore?
AS A humorist, we must transfer It
to Herbert.
WHICH FACT is again shown in q
Striking Manner when he praises Mr..
Bursum for the passage OF the Bursum
Road Bill.
WHICH WAS written by one Tully, of
Lincoln county and revised by one com
mittee of the state senate whose chair.
man was n Tully.
so THAT we may doubtless expect
to hear of the Bursum Prohibition Reso-
luton. the Bursum Ballot Law, the Bur.
