paign committee in Omaha. after
tabularing returns to noon Friday,
announced that an actual donation
of $4,000 had been made here.
Subscriptions expected Friday after
noon will easily put Omaha over
the top on its original quota OF
$325,000.
But the drive here, with the added
duty OF oversubscribing by so per
cent or more, as asked by the ma
tional committee after the original
quota had been sent and found in
adequate, must continue through
out the week and possibly into next
week, to raise at least $l75,000 more
and go over the top right" This
means that Omaha, by the end of
the drive, will have raised nearly
100000.

The committee of "aces," headed
by Chief "Ace" B. w. Hart, origin

are not responding to the call in a
manner commensurate with their
financial condition, are aow being

all who are Tagging" behind in do

they finish their work it will have
been impossible for any man who
was able to give not to have given
his full share.

houses, firms and individuals are
mounting in numbers. Among those
reported Friday was the Northwest

STRATEGY

The Republican management
in New Mexico reminds one fore
IDLY of the methods of Kaiser
Bill and his bunch.
They first started a peace Of
fensive" with Mr.. Bursum as the
mouthpiece. This met as chilly a
reception at the hands of the
people of the state as any of
Bills peace offensives at the
hands of the allies.
The next bet was 'propa-
ganda' by means of acquired
newspapers-another of Bills
devices.
A short time ago it was an
nounced that the Republicans
had purchased" the Albuquer-
que Journal. M. L. Fox, who
had formerly been the editor,
and who had lambasted the Re-
publicans to a fare you-well,
again became editor. Mr.. Nc
Pherson, former owner, now ap-
pears as business manager, and
the paper is now industriously
at work trying to make the peo-
Pile of New Mexico believe that
the thing President Wilson needs
above all others to enable him to
prosecute the war successfully.
is an opposition congress.
1t is also currently reported
that the Republicans have ac-
quired control of the Santa Fe
New Mexican, whether by pur-
chase or other means is not
definitely stated. As far as we
have observed, no formal an
nouncement of a change in con-
troll or management has been
made, but the paper shows signs
of edging over alongside the
Journal, and it seems probable
will sooon be in full cry on the
same line of propaganda.
1t may be that the voters of
New Mexico can be bSmboozled
by acquired" newspapers, but
it doesn't seem likely that they
will be so easy.
1t is a good guess that the Re-
publican machine of New Mexi-
co will get no farther with it's
acquired newspapers than Kaiser
Bill did with his.

IN MEMORIAM

Out of Gods eternity,
Out of regions unknown,
Comes the stir of soft white wings
Coming to choose His own.
The sun shines out for a moment,
Shows a young life sweet with
love,
But shows an angel come to take
it,
Gods angel from above.
He touches the best and the
sweetest.
With the chill of his dread hand !,
And bears them away and up
ward,
Into that wonderful land.
Though forever his hand has ST.
fenced
The voice of our little friend
May we see through the dark of
the present
On to that beautiful end.
And compare her sorrowful death
With the going down of the sun,
And bowling our heads in less
sadness,
Saying, His will be DONE"
Death visited the home of Mr..
and Mrs. L. ]. Hubbard, taking
from it one of the sweetest girls
in the neighborhood, their daugh-
ter, Goldie Fay Hubbard. She
was nearing her sixteenth birth
day, that being October Both.
She was a bright, but rather
delicate child, beloved by all who
knew her.
Her death was caused by a
fall she received while walking
home from a party at neigh
boris home. She and her sister
fell into a large hole and Fay
was fatallyhurt.
She was we'll known in not
only her home community, but
many adjoining neighborhoods,
and her presence will be greatly
missed by all.
While her place may be par
TALLY filled in the neighborhood
as time goes by, the memory of
Fay will always be cherished in
the hearts of her friends and
loved ones. One Of Her School
mates.

The above ticket, nominated
by the Democrats at Santa Fe
last week, is we believe a good
ticket with one exception. Judge
Hanna has given evidence con-
elusive to a great many people in
this vicinity that he is tempera-
mentally i'll fitted for a judicial
position.
The other candidates we be-
lieve to be clean men and well
fitted to serve the people of the
state in the positions for which
they have been nominated.
During the progress of the
convention there was evidence
of a desire on part of the few
to try to railroad" the business
of the convention, but the dele
gates would have none of it.
The candidates were all nom
mated in open convention, and
were the free choice of the ma
iority. This being the case
there is no reason for dissatis-
faction.
