IMPORTANT NOTICE
To all Residents of the State of
MaMr Mnyicn.

To all Residents of the State OF
New Mexico:-
Local and District Boards OF
this State have practically COM
pleted the classification of regis
trants under the Selective Ser
vice Law, who registered pricr
to June 5, 1918.
The members of these Boards
have labored faithfully and con-
scientiously to complete this gi-
gantic task and have, in each in
stance, made the proper classifi-
cation on the evidence present.
ed by the QUESTIONABLE.
There are, no doubt, cases
where the questionnaires failed
to present the true state of facts
and in these cases the Boards
have, of necessity, been unable
to do justice,
1t now becomes the patriotic
duty of every resident of this
State having knowledge of any
unjust Or improper classification
to report to Capt. R. C. Reid, U.
S. r., at Santa Fe, the facts in
the case, giving the name and
postoffice address of such regis
trant, that the case may be
thoroughly investigated. Such
report will be treated in the
strictest confidence. The Sc
lective Service Law will only
be successful in the same degree
as classifications are properly
made, and it is with view of
correcting any erroneous classi
fication that this appeal is made.
By order of
W. E. Lindsey, Governor.
r. c. Reid, Captain, U. S. r.

DELINQUENT TAXES

Each legislature elected since
New Mexico became a state has
tinkered the law relative to pub,
blication of the delinquent tax
list, and in the last round it was
knocked out altogether, and now
nothing is published but a notice.
This notice has been promul-
gated by the county treasurer
for this year, and recites in SUBJ
stance as follows:
That a list of the delinquent
taxes has been posted at the
front door of the court house,
describing the property, giving
the name of owner and the
amount of taxes, penalties and
costs.
That in the matter of taxes
exceeding $25, application will
be made to the district court on
the first Monday in August for a
judgment and order of sale; and
that within 30 days after the rem
dition of such judgment, and
after having given notice by
handbill posted at the front door
of the court house at least ten
days before sale, the property,
or so much thereof as is neces-
sary, will be sold to pay the tax
es, interest, penalties and costs.
In the matter of taxes of $25
or less, the property will in like
manner and on the same date be
sold.
So there you are.
If you want to know whether
or not your property is in the de-
linquent tax list, you may travel
to the front door Of the court
house and scan the list there
posted.
This is a. beautiful sample of
wisdom from the class Of leg
islators who have been making
laws for New Mexico.

POLITICAL

The Republican county CON.
mittee met in Willad recently, or
call of R. Romero, who is now
chairman of that body.
AS far as appears, no date was
fixed for the county convention.
The basis of representation for
the precincts was fixed as one
delegate for each twenty votes or
fraction given for Juan Ortiz in
! the last election.
1t is said that every precinct
was represented.
The Willard Record, Republi-
can organ, says that T. B. Rap
koch and Elias Speare are candi-
dates for the Republican nomina-
tion for school superintendent.
Federico Chavez and Alejan-
dro Baca want the nomination
for sheriff.
The organ says it is generally
conceded that R. Romero will be
renominated for treasurer.
LA, Rousseau is said to be a
receptive candidate for assessor,
and Julian Salas for clerk.
The organ failed to mention
several candidates who are talked
of and some who have signified
their desire to run. Whether
this is by design or oversight is
a matter for conjecture.
Among those SO ignored are
Macario Torres, who is talked of
strongly for the nomination for
treasurer, and who street talk
says is an active candidate; j. N. |
Bush, who has said that he is a
for the nomination for
assessor; and Candido Psdilla,
that perennial, ever blooming
for something or other,
who of late years has been
turned down and placated by an
as door keeper dur
ng the session of the legislature,
Or something of that sort.
this sort of a job will
satisfy Candido this year or not
s doubtful.
The organ says that harmony
within the ranks of the g. o. p.
his year is as thick as molasses
n January, and that everything
s exceedingly lovely. This is
contrary to the talk and actions
If a number of men within the
oarty; but perhaps the managers
will be able to keep the pot from
polling over.
On the Democratic side, senti-
nent in the matter of candidates
has not taken very definite form.
d. d. Smith and Walter Pace
ave announced themselves as
andidates for assessor, and
Prof. Talkington has announced
or school superintendent.
S. j. Hubbard is favored by
many as a candidate for sheriff,
nd Mr.. Hubbard says he would
ike to have the nomination.
There is a considerable senti-
nent in favor of making Juan
jruz Sanchez, who came so near
eaching the goal two years ago,
gain the candidate on the
Democratic ticket for treasurer,
,ut Mr., Sanchez himself seems
lisinclined to make the race.
A. A. Hine is talked of as a
andidate for probate judge on
he Democratic ticket.
No doubt other men are
hought Of and talked of for the
'arious offices, particularly in
ther parts Of the county, but
uch talk has not become gen.
raj.
