him out for talking anarchy and

up on booze and reeled off a lot
Of diatribe against the Govern
ment about the same class as La
Follett spiels. He was locked up
in the city bastile and the. u. S.
Attorney wired regarding the
disposition of him. He seems a
rather harmless imbecile hut his
line of talk disgusts all who hear
it and he could easily do a lot Of
damage in his insane way if he
tried and get off as irresponsible.
He was tried before u. S. Com
missioner W. H. Wilcox, Wednes

Constitutional Amendments

The proposed amendments the Constitution of the State
of New Mexico will be voted in November of this year.
They are published in all TIE papers of the State that all
citizens may have chance fully understand them and
vet it certain that but few will take the trouble anayze
them and really know what they when election day
comes.
AS we understand it the amendment to create Judicial
District mere political move get the present Democratic
Judicial District of Union Cofax and Quay counties and re-
adjust the counties so that all these may be dominated by
Republicans
This the accepted for this change 1t is depor
able that political bosses should get depraved that they
must needs have Courts controlled by Political influences in
order to insure the perpeuity of the party by ewardng
Political friends and prosecuting political opponents but that
is the apparent intent of this amendment therefore we shall
vote against it.
In the matter of taxation and Revenue The present tax
law is so utterly bad and unfair that the proposed change
seems like an attempt to better conditions and there no
joker in it that can beused by scheng dodgers to evade
the apparent intent is udabe and may prove efficient in
equazng the burden of taxation. For these reasonn we
shall vote for it,
The Prohibitory Amendment is measure which pre-
ponderance of public sentiment in its favor forced onto the
last Legislature 1t is reasonable timely and effective
measure devoid of all rancor partsanshp raaicasm
sentiment Just plain demand that New Mexico get in
step with the times and eradicate the greatest evil that be-
sets her people, ntemperance to accomplish which the
liquor business in its entirety must go.
This measure has reached the point where there is no
reasonable doubt of the passage Of the Prohbtoy Amend
ment 1t will be carried by the dominant class of citizen
ship Radical temperance advocates recognize that this
time for sober judgement to prevail and radicasm is being
avoided The victory will be by the votes of men who
have never before lined up with them the and who
do 50 now because the time has when the thing can be
put across The greatest danger the now the an
agons that would be aroused by extreme uterances or
methods.
The people are united for Statewide ohbiton now and
it will carry by an overwhelming majority.
For these and many other shall vote for it and
we urge every who feesth responsibility of his com
mission as in measure his brothers keeper to do the
some.
