THE ADDITION TO THE CAPITOL

One OF the bills now pending in the legis-
Iaturc authorizing the construction Of an adj
dition to the capitol building should be pas
sed.
New Mexico's business has far outgrown
the accommodations of the present building
and places for the offices and commissions
can no longer be provided there.
OF the pending measure we believe the
one best suited L. present conditions is that
which provids for a bond issue and immediate
construction. The proceeds from the leases
and sales of the land granted the state for
capital additions could be credited toward the
payment of such bonds and interest thereon,
and thus provide a method securing the i'm
with additional taxation.

nation came from high official sources. Here

nation came from high official sources. Here
was an opportunity. Both these publications
called Lawson all the evils the laws of decency
would permit, and indirectly lauded to the skies
the apparently more decorous officials who in
sisted that Lawson was a liar and defamer.
These prominent officials have been investi-
eating themselves and applying whitewash on
every possible place, and yet they admit that
there was a leak" from high official sources,
and yet neither publication has apologized for
the false charges they made against the
character of Lawson, who was sufficiently pa
triotic and honest to try and put a stop to
the robbery of the common people by Off
cial stock jobbers. What is more to the point,
the dailies will not make any adequate amends,
if any at all, because they are expert in black
guardisln. The hounds that were on Lawson's
trail for the purpose of defaming his good
name will keep on bowling their enl1rty in
order to cover their own mistakes, and be in
strict harmony with their instincts and desires.
These same dailies have repeatedly as
sailed the regulations of prominent New Mex
leans with false statements and misrepresenta-
tons Of facts, and never yet have been found
trying to do anything but continue their de-
f~a1nation in order to make false regulations
for themselves and increase lettering %circula-
tons. And the people of New Mexico are
becoming wise" to the characters and inten-
tons of these daiies to such an extent that it
takes liberal and foolish millionaires to keep
them going.

NATURAL CUssEDNEss WORKS OUT

New Mexico has two daily newspapers
constantly claiming TO be reformers, moral up
filters. and all such other things, and attempt
to keep up the desired regulations by cons
family defaming men not in accord with them.
1t is unnecessary to mention the fact that one
the dailies is published in Albuquerque, and
the other in this city.
How true to their instincts the efforts
run is very clearly illustrated in a recent mat
ter of national importance. A Boston finan-
cier named Lawson charged that certain
used advance information to specu-
late on the stock markets, and that the infor-

high enough to make the best flour. III area
adapted to wheat is extensive enough - grow
plenty of grain to supply many Touring mills.
Butter, cheese, condensed milk Imports 10
1916 totalled more than $4,000, 100000. There
never was a better country for daisyAg than
New Mexico.
Poultry products were imported to an
amount of $3,ooo,ooo.oo in 1916. Every one
knows how readily poultry of all kisds may
be raised in New Mexico.
Fresh meats are shipped in on . large
scale. Hardly a meat market in the state
handles exclusively beef, mutton, and pork fat
tened at home. In 1916 10000 head of cat
tie and $780, 1886 head of sheep were shipped out
to be finished by enterprising feeders IN other
states.
The grocer sells imported vegetables and
imported canned goods. Even onions are
shipped in though New Mexico grows prize
winning Denia onions and other standard
varieties. Check over the grocer's stock of
goods and note that the greater proportion
could be profitably produced in New Mex
leo.
Flour, butter, cheese, condensed min, eggs,
beef, mutton, pork, sugar, canned goods, and
so on down the line may be successfully pro-
uuccd III the state. 30 may Dran, ShOrtS, al
falfa meal, corn chops, and other imported
feed stuffs.
An increased production of these things
will not come of itself soon. 1t will demand
enterprise. 1t will require concerted action by
the banker, the business man, the farmer, and
the stock1nan. And constructive legislation
to encourage industry and transportation ia
%cilities is very essential.

CURRY
Bonds Sell At Premium

The $4,000 bond issue for the
erection of a new high school build
ing for Clovis, which was voted on
December q. was sold to the Keever
company of Denver, Colo. The COM
pany which won the contract placed
the highest bid among twenty-three
bidding concerns. The price offer
ed was a premium above the $4,000
of $4,000. This means that the
bond company paid 1903 is for the
bonds, and that when sold to the
nublic they will bring approximately
los.
The bond issue carries a S per
cent interest rate, runs for twenty
years and is further renewable for
ten years. That it was considered
desirable is shown by the large
number of bids received.

SHALL NEW MEXICO FEED ITSELF?
By A. NJ. Hove.


New Mexico labels rarely appear on the
articles on sale by the grocer, the butcher, the
haberdasher, the dealer in hardware, dry
goods. and wet goods. In other words the
neoole of New Mexico eat, wear, and drink
what is very largely imported from other
states.
The income from the mines, live stock,
hav. fruit. etc, is sent away to build indus
tries in other communities. Such a condition
is no longer defensible in a state that has so
many and varied resources as New Mexico.

CAUGHT IN THE ACT

The democratic floor leader in the lower
house of the legislature arose to a question
of personal privilege last Wednesday and
right roundly and undoubtedly very proper
ly. denounced the Albuquerque Journal for its
deceptive, untrue and unwarranted statements
concerning the acts of the legislators, DEM
ocrats and republicans alike.
The Legislators are interfering with the
common pactices of the Albuquerque publica-
ton, which, with the exception of the New
Mexican, is geneally recognized as the most
unreliable alleged newspaper published in this

KEEPING THEIR PLEDGES

The republican leaders who insisted that
the party keep its pledges, both in the letter
and the spirit in which they were made. have
prevailed in the party councils. and a prohibi-
ton amendment to the constitution has been
passed bv a republican legislature.
Whether or not the amendment is "rat
proof is another matter. and the State
Record is not sufficiently Informed on pro-
hibition legislation TO render an expert opinion,
but it was the measure which seemed to please
the largest number Of those favoring an amend
mcnt to the state constitution closing the
saloons, and solne of the best legal advisors
OF the state believe that it will work so as
to meet the expectations of the most ardent
prohibitionists.
The wording of the amendment makes
il certain that the election for the adoption or
rejection of the amendment will be a special
one called for the purpose of passing upon
constitutional amendments, and as both great
political parties are pledged to its support there
will be no politics in the campaign preceding
the date of election.
While there is now some opposition from
the more pronounced "bone dry" advocates of
prohibition, the provisions of the bill are so
sweeping, prohibiting everything but personal
Use. that it is believed the prohibitionists of
the state will soon line up solidly in support
Of the amendment. and as they already have
a strong organization in the state, and repre-
sentatives in every precinct of the state. the
indications point to its adoption by a substan-
tial majority. So far as known there is no
real organization against the amendment. and
it will be extremely difficult for the liquor in
terests TO organize any effective opposition.
The JAMS have a saving that fortune fol-
lows the serpent. Here in New Mexico we
have the proof that they are correct. A
large mart Of our "rattlesnake flats" are now
producing beans at a profit of $1,000 per acre
per wear on land that can be bought at 5000
to $500 Der acre. And vet we have a few
individuals who dom care to raise
anything but hell. a few hundred who are will
ing to spend $4,000 every two years for a
Job that pays S.. zoo and several dozen
who are willing to come to the legislature.
