MEMORY,

There are many kinds of memory
systems, but no one has yet invented
a system that will help man forget.
Booze may deaden the senses for a
while, and dope may lift one on the
wings of dreams, but there's the fear
more merciless than ever because it
has been robbed of it's rightful toll.
No man can of himself drive away
the pangs of memory-but there is a
road to peace of mind for those who
are truly sorry for the sin which will
not he put out of ones mind.
Fist, it's only right and fair that
the sin committed should be confessed
to the one who was injured--whoever
else one may confess to.
Second, it's only right and fair that
such restitution as one can make
should be offered to the one who was
injured.
But memory is made hideous not
only by our own sin, but because of
others sin or failure.
In such cases the cultivation of the
spirit OF forgiveness will bring peace
OF mind, and the consciousness that
each of us has his own short comings
which cause others to grieve and sor-
row.
Memory. too, is made unhappy be-
cause OF the loss OF one who was
loved but who has gone away--for a
brief time, perhaps. or forever.
To secure peace of mind for those
who suffer on this account, there is
work, work, work--for those who
have suffered as we have, or for those
who need our help for whatever
reason.
Memory is merciless only to those
who are defiant of its power, but it
is ever charitable to those who seek
its favor in the attempt to crowd the
heart and mind with loftier thoughts
and ambitions. ia

The Politicians Versus
Albuquerque
by S. L. VANN

After being for years without any
political influence in national or state
affairs, it is natural that the eyes of
Albuquerque should have turned anX-
iously toward the state political con-
ventions. Great disappointment and
chagrin are to say the least the feel
ings of Albuquerqueans as the result
of the conventions is reviewed. We
put forward able men for the two
great offices. eg, the governorship and
the senatorship; we merely got nopi-
nations for judicial positions
Not any of these officials carry airy
executive or legislative influence. If
these sentlement are elected, their
pleasing personality and their foren-
sic ability are transferred to Santa Fee;
the headquarters of those offices.
For their own interests we sincerely
hope that these Albuquerque men will
win, but as far as Albuquerque is con-
cerned, these nominations are but po-
litical crumbs dropped from the po-
litical banquet for the consolation of
the Albuquerque voters. We know by
bitter experience what the result will
be.
II another national military camp is
offered this state, will some senator
from the Texas border let Albuquer-
que get it? If another state camp is
offered to some town in the state, will
some governor from the Colorado Lor-
der let Albuquerque have it? No. En-
phatically no.
IL the politicians of the state can
not get something for their own town,
they are willing to let any other place
get it except Albuquerque,
The situation for Albuquerque is
very serious Not only are we prevent
cd from securing our share of public
institutions, but we are in grave dan
ger of losing what we have. The food
commission office goes very soon to
santa Fe, tand our hold on the forest.
service is weakening daily. 1t behooves
the voters Of Albuquerque to organize
themselves TO fight this ever growing
menace of the politicians.
And yet we will be told that we must
support these pseudo statesmen for
patriotic reasons. We will be told that
1t would be disloyal to cause any ILL.,
feeling in New Mexico during war
times. All these two-by-three and
wo-by-four towns may combine for
the purpose of breeding ill-feeling ana
-by-four statesmen, but Albiiduer-
Que must remain calm and unruffled,
and keep down both her own temper
and her own politicians.
For this reason, all of our great two-
lf-tonr statesmen necessarily comel

out of the first hundred voters you
meet on the streets of this city. which
is the metropolis, and the commercial
and geographical center of the state,
ninety of them have never seen either
our two senators or our representa-
tives, and yet their salaries are paid
for out of our pockets one of our
senators is said to be a well-known
figure on the streets of FL Paso. Why
should Texas have three senators
Another of our statesmen Is said to be
a personal friend of Hearst. Perhaps
we ought to be glad that only one out
OF hundred of us have seen him. The
politicians have united many parts of

from the table with broken heart.

William Mckinley another repub-
lean statesman, after the Spanish
American war signed the gold STAN
dard law and ended Bryan's threat
TO debase the currency.
William Howard Taft, still another
republican statesman, so administered
the business of the people that he
saved more than $10O,O0O,O0O by eff
ficient methods. ....
These are few illustrations of con-
structve republican craftsmanship.
The republican party and its leaders
have ever possessed the genius, the
business judgment and the sound
economic principles with which to
conduct the government safely.
The republicans consider winning
the war the first great duty They
worked all along toward that end and
have given greater support to war
measures in congress than the demo-
Gratis. They have supported every
war activity. Before the war they
asked for preparedness, which was
denied them by a democratic con-
gress. They are now pointing out the
necessity of preparedness for peace,
apparently without avail, but their
patriotism, wisdom and business abil-
ity have been called upon to help
win the war. The democrats boast
(as fake display of non PARTISAN
ship that they have utilized the
brains and directing force of the re-
publicans in this war. They head the
list with Taft, Hughes and Schwab,
and long list of financiers, diplo-
mats, soldiers, statesmen, business and
professional men. The republicans of
the constructive type are doing big
things at personal sacrifice, not mere
ly holding jobs or commissions but
building great fleets of ships, raising
billions in taxes and Liberty Bonds
raising and equipping great armies
and speeding the war program.
When peace comes-and reconstruc-
tion-these constructive republicans
will be called on to solve the prob
lens growing out of the war, and at
the same time protect interests of the
laborer, the manufacturer the farmerI
and the business man. This can not
be done by the democratic party, a
party now absolutely con-
trolled by the south.
Northern, mid western and western
party's policies. These policies are
by the democratic con-
gressmen from nine southern states. |
Democratic congressman representing /
citizens are bound hand and foot by |
the party caucus, which is controlled |
absolutely by the south.
Democrats, as we'll as republicans,
outside of the south cannot hope to
have their great and varied interests
looked after properly by democratic
controlled by a south
ern caucus. 1
They should vote TO send republic
cans TO congress, who could construc-
lively represent their districts, state
and the nation without the bossism of
the south, whose interests are vastly
different from those of the north.
Peace and reconstruction will bring
duties--republican states
men would be able to properly handle
the great problems.
