jured Thursday during a speech by the
Czech Deputy Soukop. according to a

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES. March
14.-An German newspapers of March
contained the following official state
ment, which will either cause an ironi-
cal smile or rifle the blood of every
American who reads it:
The Americans captured on March
1 near Chavignef were being used SIM
ply as first line laborers between ex-
perienced French divisions That is
how they happened to be caught in the
attack made by the Baden and Thurin-
gian shock troops. They surrendered
easily without making too much re-
sistance. They are from the state of
Connecticut and are robust young men,
but have no great enthusiasm for the
. war. They have no notion whatever of
the aim and meaning of this war.
For them the conflict is due to the
enterprise of great New York fnanciers
They hate, but respect, the English and
have feeling of protecting pity for
the French. Toward Germany they are
absolutely Indifferent. Military opera
lions do not interest them in the
slightest They give themselves fatal
istically into the hands of the French
who are experienced in the war The
violence of the German attack made a
great impression on them and they
are pleased to be out of the war"
This tissue of lies was doubtless in
tended to reassure the German people
concerning the American Intervention.

1t is alleged that while our state

OF 1917 purpoiting to give the ab-
sent registered soldier the right to
vote at the coming November cleo
ton al least IS, 900 West Virginia
voters who are now in the military
service of the United States. This
REIMBURSEMENT Is on account of
the ,nworkableness of the law which
virtually denies opportunity to those
who are making the greatest pos
sible sacrifice for our country to
have any voice in it's government.
When the attenrion OF the Hon.
Virgil L. Highland candidate for
the Republican nomination for Unit
ed States senator was called to the
fact that the act is unworksble
and will deprive the defenders of
our country Of the right to vote, he
declared that it is not 100 late to
oorrect the matter, and he strong
ly urges the calling OF an extra ses-
sion of the Legislature 10 pass a

much of this congestion will be

For this reason my brother, John
Doherty, was shot through the
window of his own home and was
instantly killed by the Abeyta gang,
Larrazolo's defense Of this Abeyta
gang Was his most prominent case
and he obtained acquittal for these

juries and eloquent appeals to the
race prejudice of the jury.
Larrazolo is the organizer and
brains of an organization in the
Spanish American counties of
New Mexico, the platforneao of

this society and its supposed vote

LARRAzOLO, UNSUCCESSFUL
LAWYER and POLITICIAN

The Republican Press of New Mex
leo asks the voters to elect o. A.
Larrazolo for governor because he
is a politician, a lawyer and hot
air merchant, and to defeat Felix
Garcia because he is not politician,
but has been a success in business
and has accumulated some money,
and who might be advised by his
friends, on some matters pertaining
to the governors office, if elected.
Larrazolo,' to a great many New
Mexico voters, is an unknown man,
but not so to the old-timers like my
self.
LarrazolO first came into promi-
nence in 1895 as legal defender for
an organized gang of houseburners,
thieves anG murderers, the Herrera
and Silva gangs in San Miguel Coun-
ty and the Abeyta gang in Mora
County, In those times any man
who openly favored the protection
