New Mexico's Shame.

1t is a great and lasting shame
that the great state OF New Mexico,
fourth in size in the u. S. didn't
have room enough to present the
Pershing medal, conferred on that
distinguished soldier by our state
legislature. and that the exercises
had to be held in FL Paso.
The Graphic is not criticising e.
Paso, but we are severely condemn
ing Speaker Llewellyn and any other
man or men who are to blame for
thus disgracing the whole state of
New Mexico.
Deming Or Columbus would have
been glad to have welcomed the
crowd who came TO witness the event,
or we would have all been glad to
have gone to Las Cruces or Carne,
but to 60 outside the state was an
indignity that no true New Mexican
should be called upon to bear.-Dem-
ing Giophic.

Senator Fall's Patriotism.


One of the most persistent critics
of President Wilson in Congress,
during the past three years has been
Senator Fall. Few men have been
moi" severe in their comments ur.
on the policies of the President. That
he sho ~ d come forward in the hour
of national crisis and declare his
undivided support of the president
and advocate powers in order to
meet the present international crisis
with the proper degree of firmness
is reassuring to all patriotic Ameri-
cans. II indicates that partisanship
will be put aside whenever the high
est interests of the nation demand
such action and that the instances
of wavering support and active OPP
position 10 the president in such
a time will be inconsiderable and I'M
worthy of notice.
Senator Fall delivered an address
to the senate which showed him to
be a man of genuine patriotism. II
was a speech which expressed senti-
ments which every patriotic Ameri-
can will applaud, and which might
vel be commended to those few
members of congress who SO far
have failed to rise to the demands
Of the present International situa-
tion. Among other things, Senator
Fal! said:
while ] have no reason PERSONAL
ly t. entertain any feeling of friend
ship to the present occupant of the
White House, / have been as sever
in my criticisms of him, of his acts,
or rather his failure to act, as any
man in the United States, l believe
that it is absolutely essential to
the salvation of this government now
that some man who will act shall
have the power to act in time of
emergency.
Il believe that it is necessary that
we should have laws which will
countries who have now access to
the intimate secrets of this govern
ment for its national defense. ]
believe congress should vest in the
executive department at this time
absolute arbitrary powers, and j
believe that without this government
itself and the perpetuity of our dem
ocratic institutions are at stake.
For that reason | am willing to
yield something of my previous con-
victions with reference to one-man
power. ] am willing to support him
not, | may say, as the leader of a
party who comes to the capitol and
seeks advice only from members of
his own party-not that form of
support; but l am wiling to support
him as the president of the United
States in whom is vested the ex-
%ecutive authority and who stands be-
fore the people of the world as the
representative of this great govern
mcnt of ours. To him am will
ing to yield authority, and ! am
to vest him with the power
to carry it outfit.

tariff. in view of the fact that this

left San Francisco for the east to
compete with the New Mexico bean.
There are 65,O0O bags in the ship

twenty-nine freight cars. 1t is a.
legged that the Chinese can raise
