William Randolph Hearst. owner
of a dozen publications, friend OF
Bolo Pasha, is seeking to vindicate
himself in the eyes of the people OF
New Mexico. He is asking for an
injunction to prevent the neighbor-
ing commonwealth council of de-
Tense from exercising its functions
New Mexico appears to be in dead
earnest. The people of that state, as
represented by the council of de-
Tense. are All American, and by that
we mean that they for all of Ameri-
cas- Allies and everything that our
war with Germany stands for. In
New Mexico. Hearst and Hearst pub
locations are under the ban. They
are not wanted and Hearst is max
ing every possible effort to get back
into the good graces of them.
People in Arizona and in other
states are often inclined to point
to New Mexico and smile, tolerant
ly, They do not know New Mexico.
Its citizenship is fifty per cent
Spanish speaking. All of that part
of the citizenship. however. is ma
tive born and loyal to the core. In
the Spanish-American war New Mex
leo contributed its proportion to the
Rough Riders. to the regular army
and to other volunteer units, New
Mexico's sons accredited themselves
with honor.
Since America declared war against
Germany, the people of the state
have taken an active interest in the
struggle. Sentiment against Hearst
and against the Hearst publications
has grown from day to day until
the state council of defense took
action. 1t advised against the read
ing of Hearst's newspapers and
Its advice was largely
followed.
When the sales Of Examiners" and
other Hearst publications began to
fall in the state of New Mexico, Will
Rondalph wanted to know why.
He found out and now he is trying
to tie the hands of the New Mexico
council of defense. We will predict
whether or not Hearst's at
secure the injuntion. the
people of New Mexico will continue
o hate Hearst's newspapers.
IF more of New Mexico's policies,
regard to patriotism and full
lodged cooperation with the forces
n the country that are for war and
been for war. were adopted in
Arizona there would be a healthier
condition of affairs in this state.

GROSS WASTE EXPOSED

A good place to begin ret~renchment
in public expenditures is in the pub
licity work that Is being conducted
in the sale of War Savings Stamps
and Liberty Bonds. Such is the
opinion of Congressman Benjamin K.
Focht of Pennsylvania. Mr.. Focht
is in the printing business and knows
whereof he speaks. He is astound-
ed at the enormous quantities of mat
ter that have been printed and sent
out with apparently no consideration
of whether they would ever be seen
by prospective purchasers of Gov
eminent securities. In one house in
a village of his district, Mr.. Focht
found a mans cellar packed with
literature sent him by the War
Stamps headquarters. His parlor and
back porch were likewise filled.
There was sufficient printed matter
to give a thousand pieces to every
individual in hat part of the coun-
try where the man was to sell the
stamps. Mr.. Focht also finds an i'm
preston abroad that much of the
has been issued to boost
Democratic aspirants and the DEM
party, rather than to do any
thing toward winning the war.

The meat packers are attempting
to use the fact that the Federal
Trade Commission had to go back
to 1913 to make even a small showing
against the cope producers Of the
west as evidence that the commission
was unfair in making its report SO
severe on the meat packers. Even by
comparing the profits of 1917 with
those Of 1913, which was a bad year,
the commission had to admit that
the RI showing was not SO
strong against the copper companies,
and wal then forced to say that
these copper producers had made
absolutely no effort to influence the
government or to boost up prices
and profits, which places the copper
of the southwest in the
loyal class marked Al.

AN ASSORTMENT OF LIES

The August number of the North
American Review published an article
p~urporting to have been written by
Henry Wray of Kansas City, Mo.
From first to last the article which
Is headed .American's Unguarded
Gateway" is a false and libelous at
tack on all the people Of New Mex
leo.
1t i. best refuted by calling atten-
ton to the fact that New Mexico
furnished more soldiers for the pres
ervation Of the Union during the
Civil War in proportion to her Po-
pulation than any other state in the
Union and that 81 out of every 100
Of them were former citizens of
Mexico-this in spite Of the fact that
these people had at that time beer
citizens of this country only IL years.
That after the war with Mexico
100 per cent of the people elected
to become citizens of the United
States, having at that time the right
to choose whether they should be-
come citizen. of this country or re-
main subjects of Mexico.
That during the Spanish-American
War New Mexico furnished all the
troops that could get into the SER
vice and offered thousands of 9TH
FRS.
That since the beginning of the
present war New Mexico has fur
nished MORE THAN DOUBLED THE
AVERAGE number Of men, for all
branches of tn naval and military
service, that attains throughout the
country.
That New Mexico has exceeded her
money quota on every call of the
government, or any War Activity
Society, by from rs to 300 per cent.
The statements that
"A state of treason exists in this
part of our country"
-The nstiv. population awaits the
hour to strike"
THE enemy would be acclaimed,
fed. quartered, equipped and recruit
3D.
"The Federal and State courts obey
the mandates of the Penitentes,"
Are dastardly lies and an outrage
and libel on the state which are re-
sented by all our people and for
which the State Record believes pro-
~secutions for libel and suits for dam
aRea should he promptlv instituted.

The Roswell Record comments al
length relative to c. L. Tallmadge
who last week announced his can.
didacy for the u. S. Senate on the
democratic ticket in many newspaper
throughout the state.
The Roswell paper is moi for Mr.
Tallmadge and says SO in several diff.
ferent ways. 1t proceeds to assail
technical violations of u. S. land reg
ulations brought against him when
he was engaged in colonizing the
Pecos Valley and otherwise says
things which will b. very embarrass-
ing to that stalwart democratic sheet
should Mr.. Tallmadge be the nominee
Of the democratic party for U. S.
senator and the Record placed in
the position of supporting him or
boiling it's party.
The Record says hat the Pecos
Valley is practically unanimous for
Judge Richardson for u. S. senator,
which may be true, but which does
not tally with what quite a number
of very prominent democrats from
the Pecos Valley have said about
Pecos Valley politics, and Judge
Richardson when on visits to the
capital city during the past few
months.
OF course, this is all a democratic
muddle and none of our business but
it does seem to us chat the Roswell
Record is a little bit u%ngrateful, If
nothing more, when it proceeds to
eudgel a man who was at one time
keralded by practically all the people
Of the Pecos Valley as the one in
dividual who was able to promote its
growth and improvement when every
one else had failed, and who brought
trainload after trainload of landse-k-
ers and settlers to the Pecos Valley
towns and gave the valley the true
and glowing reputation of being a
productive land and one fit to live in
which il still enjoys throughout thu
middle states. And ungrateful is
hardly a strong enough word to ex-
plain the Roswell papers attitude
in bringing up and rehashing the
technical charges Of violations of
which Mr.. Tallmadge was cleared in
the courts, when it is considered that
whatever infrigements he may have
made were merely incidental to his
program Of settling, developing, inn
proving, and making the Peeos VAL :
ley the food and flower garden il 10
today.
When Nj. Tallmadge was running
special trains into the Pecos Valley
twice a month and the nesters were
unloading their dry claims at $40 to
$50 per acre and paying their four
year old bad debts to the merchants
he was considered q pretty good fell
low generally and il is likely that the
Record and the Judge shared that
general impression when Richardson,
Reid 4 Hervey were defending the
said Mr.. Tallmadse against the said
charges at which time Judge Richard
son assisted in drawing the demurrers
were sustained by the court
and resulted in the dismissal Of the
nimsy charges.

ALIENS

There are enemy aliens and there

This is a war of peoples as well
as Of nations, and each individual

General Paving
A plan to work to is what every
progressive city needs. The chamber
of commerce of Albuquerque has
wisely provided the plan in deciding
to lay out a program embracing the
paving of the entire city. Dust fHbm
dirt roads blows over the paved por-
tions and the wash of rain makes
them muddy, and the upkeep of a
partly paved and a partly dirt sys-
TEN is disproportionate to the re-
suits obtained. The plan we predict
will be worked out sooner than is
expected by most of our people. and
Albuquerque again will register a
step foreward among the progressive
cities and once again deserve the
name Of the Biggest Little City in
the West.-Albuquerque lndepen-

Ira L. Wright. NJ. F., who for a

connected with mine operations in
this district has opened an office

ture devote himself to the practice
of his profession here.
Mr.. Wripht's practical exper-
fence in the Grant county field has
familiarized him with conditions
here TO such an extent that his re-
ports should be of more than ordi-
nary value. A completely equipped
assay office. doing both custom and
control work, will be an important
adjunct to the business.
Grant county furnished 30 per cent
of the minerals mined in the state of
New Mexico last year and the pre-

active and a vast development in an
entirely new field-that of mangan-
ese. Vast deposits of mineral known
to exist are as yet undeveloped and
mining in this district is still in its
infancy.-Silver City Enterprise.
