Immediately noticeable. Not only do

unconsciously get their heads up and
their chests out. Col. Cloman didn't

Is a great source of pride to the Depot
Brigade for it's the largest band in

THE COMPANIONABLE WOMAN

Men marry for companionship /;

remedy for such conditions in that

SELLERS FOR GOVERNOR

Santa Fe, N. M, Sept. 49,
The sentiment throughout the
state for Col. D. K. B. Sellers
for governor on the Democratic
ticket is increasing daily.
Il do not believe in beginning
the campaign until after the Lib
erty Loan Drive" said Col. Sci
lers, but Immediately after that,
adopt the offensive and go to it.
We must win the war and in or
der to aid in doing so, we must
make an effort to develop the
natural resources of the state
and give the live stock industry
the very best state cooperation.
We must make our natural roads
a quick asset by proper system
of maintenance. We should
have a revision of our taxation
law and | believe in our state en-
dorsing the National Prohibition
Law and bettering our educa-
tional system wherever possible.

A STATEMENT

We, the undersigned citizens
of Dona Ana county desire to
make a statement relative to the
candidacy of Mr.. Lytton R. Tay-
lor for the judgeship of the third
judicial district.
We have 6nown Mr.. Taylor
for several years. He is about
thirty-three years old and has
been practicing before the vari-
GUS courts for several years and
has been associated with E. C.
Wade, Sr. for more than five
years. He is a graduate of the
New Mexico Agricultural College
and took a short law course at
Columbia University, New York
City. We believe he is we'll
qualified to fill the high position
of district judge.
Mr.. Taylor is honest, sober.
Industrious, and an able lawyer.
He is not a member of any po-
litical faction and has no politi-
cal debts to pay. We believe
that the citizens of the third ju-
dicial district want a man for
district judge who is qualified,
independent and who will be i'm
partial in the administration of
justice. We believe that Mr..
Taylor has these qualifications
and that he will continue to live
up to his high record.
At the age of twelve years Mr..
Taylor commenced life as a coal
miner. Nearly twenty years
ago he came to New Mexico and
worked in the coal mines at
Captain, Lincoln county. His
determination to obtain an edu-
cation caused him to study at
night and during spare time.
Fifteen years ago he arrived at
the New Mexico Agricultural
College where he worked his
way through that institution.
We respectfully urge the citi-
zens of the third judicial district
to support this man. He is a
candidate for the Republican
nomination and we believe that
you will make no mistake if you
lend him your entire support.
Cordially yours,
GEO. B. JOHNSON.

IMPROVEMENTS

udJ JHc IN. M. ~. hdiIWdy w.
are doing more than could be
reasonably expected, under pres
ent circumstances, in building
up the property, is a matter for
the liveliest satisfaction to the
people along the road, and sim
cere congratulations to the man
agement.
The activity in this line is far
beyond the expectations of any,
body--we did not even hope that
SO much would be done.
This week witnesses the be-
ginning Of a new standard stock
yards, to be located just south of
the depot on the east side of the
track.
Traffic Manager C. A. Richard
son was here Monday and au-
thorized the work.
The yards will be equipped
with stock scales, and water will
be piped to the yards, SO that
every facility needed by stock
shippers will be supplied.
In this particular matter the
railroad management have ac
ceded to requests and repre-
sentations by Estancia business
men. 1t has been represented
that if the road would furnish
proper facilities the stockmen
would load and unload here in
stead of driving to and from
other points, and now that the
road is doing its part, it is sim
cerely hoped that stockmen will
give the road their patronage.
The interests of the N. M. G.
and by far the greater part of
the valley are mutual, as we all
realized when there was threat
of dismantling the road. There
fore it behooves all Of us, the
stockmen included, to give the
road all the business possible,
In this connection it gives US
much pleasure to chronicle the
fact that work in other directions
in the matter of building up the
property is being pushed with all
possible speed.
Mr.. j. w. Slack, superintend-
ent of bridges and building, has
long been employed on other
roads, and knows his business
from the ground up.
Bisides pushing the work of
putting in new ties, bridge build
ing and other building operations
are going forward with speed.
The new water tank at this
place was completed in record
time, and has now been in SER
vice several weeks.
A new storehouse and office
building 64x128 feet is now going
up rapidly in the Estancia yards.
1t is located north of the machine
shop and south of the carpenter
and paint shop, where it will be
more convenient than in the old
location.
Work is proceeding on wreck
ing cars and apparatus, so that
in case of accident the work of
clearing up will not have to be
prosecuted under such great dis
advantages as hitherto.
Mr.. Slack tells us that new
bridge of standard construction
has just been finished near STAN
ley, and the bridge force are now
at work on another near Moriarty.
Both of the trains are now
equipped with nice, standard
passenger coaches, the last of
which was turned out of the
shop just a few days ago. They
look like new, having been en-
tirely overhauled and repainted,
and are just as nice looking and
comfortable as anybody's coach
es. The travelling public ought
to appreciate this.
