The Russian army in Galicia, which
startled the world with its fierce often

TO DEVELOP TRADE

Residents of the Estancia valley
are prosperous. This is beyond argu-
nent. They have been getting good
prices for their products, and have
money to spend. A little thoughtful
endeavor on the part of Santa Fe
would make it possible for these peo-
pie to come to Santa Fe to transact
a vast deal of their business. The
trade is going elsewhere, but it would
come to Santa Fe, provided it might
travel over a good road.
William Gregg, a Santa Fe bust
ness man, was in Estancia IN Mon
day evening. He says that he count
ed sixty automobiles parked on the
main business street, within the
space of a little more than two
blocks. On Saturdays the number
Of cars is almost twice as great.
The owncrs Of those cars will drive
70 Santa Fe occasionally, if they have
n good automobile road to travel.
What that would be worth to Santa
Fe, in a business and social way,
is beyond estimate.
Think it over. Then talk it over
with others who are interested. IF
all of us will combine or the pro-
ject, we will accomplish something.

PUBLICITY EXPERT SAYS
THAT DONA ANA COUNTY
HAD A GREAT FAIR

J. F. FARRELL, publicity agent for the
Santa Fe, was in the city today, err
route east. Mr.. FARRELL was in at.
tendance at the Dona Ana county
fair at Las Cruces yesterday and
delivered an address, an excerpt OF
which was printed in The Herald
last evening. Yesterday was farmers
day at the fair, and Mr.. FARRELL gives
Ia glowing account of the crowd that
was present, the interest manifested
and the magnificent display of prod
lucts.
In Nh. Jarrelrs opinion, Dona Ana
is one of, if not the best, county in
the state from the standpoint of agri-
culture. Much interest is being taken
in farming and the results are truly
marvellous. He is of the opinion that
their county agent, who is a real
booster and can do most anything
from singing a solo to giving expert
advice on every phase of farm work
is largely responsible for Dona Ana

balled by the committee ON admis'
sion"
Col. Roosevelt ought to be able
to draw at least a little consolation
from the fact that even more ex-
~perienced military men have been
blackballed. There is the cAse of a
certain Major General Leonard
Wood, ranking major general and
former chief of staff of the United
States army. Early in the year when
the war-clouds hung low over this
country, General Wood had the cour-
age to tell the people that the Unit.
cd States was not prepared for war,
and hat it ought to get ready. La
ter developments have made it rea-
sonably clear that General Woods
statements were true: that the coun-
try was not ready, that it needed
to get ready. General Woods re-
ward was to be denoted, and, later,
to be denied the privil ,ge of leading
the exPeditionary army to France.

Dates for registration have been
set in sixteen states, ten of them by
Governors proclamations. In three
the work already is under way. In
some states registration will be car
ried out gradually through the local
organizations .
1t was made clear to-day that,
while listing of all women is desired,
registration is purely voluntary, and
only women who seek government
service will assume any obligation.
Ages will not be required, although
it is suggested that they should be
stated in a general way, such as

SAN JUAN'.S ONE NEED

The "Optimistic Edition" of the
Pennington "Enterprise," issued last
week, contains rs pages of pictures
and printed matter descriptive of the
San Juan country. The issue is al
excellent one, and San Juan county
really does have a vast deal to be
optimistic about. 1t is not an exag-
xeration to say that the county has
everything it needs, with the one en-
c~eption of adequate transportation
facilities. One standard gauge rail-
road to traverse a considerable por-
tion of the county soon would make
of il a veritable kingdom.

German Way OF Thinking

This is pure Boche. This is the way
the German thinks, and this is why
all peace discussion with the German
is today folly. We shall not make
terms with the murderer until the
crime has been expiated. The Ger
man must go from Belgium; he must
pay for what he has done in Belgium,
and he must consent that the doors
Be barred against his return; and
until he proposes such terms the
place to meet him is in the trenches
and not around the green table, and
the way to treat him is the way one
treats an assassin and not a civilized
human being. New York Tribune.
