tCUT OUT Ell PASO, TEXAS

1t appears from all reports that
the republicans will nominal. for
U. S. Senator. Albert B. Fall, Of FL
Paso, Texas.
This is agreeable to the democrats.
The democrats will nominate and
elect Hon. w. B. Walton. of Silver
City, for congressman. - Wagon
Mound Sentinel.
We heartily agree with the Sen
tinel in the above, and as the writer
is undoubtedly new in New Mexico
he makes a mistake-the same mis-
take some from the northern part of
the state made a few years ago when
they stated that Senator Fall was or
ever had been a resident of FL Paso.
TEXAS. Mr.. Fall for a few years did
make his headquarters in FL Paso
and in Mexico, likewise New York.
but he always maintained his home
and political residence in New Mex
leo. First in Las Cruces and at his
ranch in the San Andreas. known as
the Gold Camp, and later in Otero
county at Three Rivers where he has
one of the finest properties in all
New Mexico. W. believe in being
fair and even should we oppose his
candidacy to succeed himself for SEN
ator from New Mexico we would
like to correct the error some have
made.-Las Vegas Journal.

RAYNOLDS APPEALS
TO COUNTY CHAIRMEN
TO FINISH UP STAMP DRIVE

A ringing appeal has been issued
from the office of Hallett Reynolds,
New Mexico Director of the Wa
Savings campaign, calling on county
War Savings chairmen to complete
their reports covering results of the
big War Savings drive of June 18th
to July 18th, so that New Mexico's
status in the great national effort
may be definitely known; and at the
same time asking that effective plans
be made and vigorous work be done
to follow up all of the pledges made
during the two weeks drive.
Up to today only eleven of the %
counties had made complete returns
covering results of the drive. Others
have made partial returns, but SO in
complete as to make it impossible
to complete tabulations for the state.
While results thus far reported are
regarded as good, it is felt that the
pledge card work may be carried
very much further in many commu-
mites. 1t is urged on county chair
men not only to follow up the pledge
cards in hand, but also to push the
campaign for increased number and
amounts of pledges. This. it is sug-
gested, can be done as part Of the
regular War Savings routine work.
1t is hoped that within another
week all of the counties will have
completed their reports on pledge
cards and a statement covering the
status of New Mexico in its cam
paign for 100000 in War Savings
Stamps this year can then be made.
In the meantime every War Savings
Stamp worker is urged to redoubled
effort. as it is known that the state
is still far behind its quota for the
year

Speaking of patriotism, I heard a

at has not been so long ago but
that we remember quite distinctly

of Cimarron's tales of alfalfa cut and
apples coming and send to them in
reply to their letters telling of parch-
ed fields 1W degrees in the shade,

The Most Popular Diversion

The Most Popular Oiversion
Among Santa Feans this summer
is Red Cross and other war work
activities. Occasionally, to relieve the
monotony a weekend party, dance
or JOY ride is permissible. and per-
fcctly in keeping with the war sit
uation. The former have been the
most popular. OF course a moor is
more or LESS necessary on the later
expeditions and congerial couples
are absolutely essential.
In the once, gayest of capital cities,
nowadays the gorgeous functions
are not ever given for charity, and
the smartest social gatherings have
become smaller and more conserva-
tive. Women have entered the great
fields Of philanthropy, %civics, reform
work, and suffrage, and are other
wise accomplishing a tremendous
amount of commendable work. These
are the things which nov occupy
many a woman's time to the exclu-
sion of the entirely frivolous life.

dance was given in honor of Miss
Norma Fishes birthday. The event
was a surprise on the young lady

Besides the above, several more Car
lsbad Knights will "cross the burn

Mrs. Whit Wright is the composer
Of the words and music Of what
promises to be a very popular song,
entitled "Sammic, Take a Smoke on

During Mrs. Wright's absence in
Dallas and Mineral Wells, Texas, the
composition was rendered by the
local orchestra with splendid effect.
Mrs, Wright is beginning to be known
as a composer of mor than ordin-
airy ability and Carlsbad is proud
to number this gifted lady among
her citizens. Mrs. Wright is COM
posing another song called "a Mess
age from the Boys Over There,
which she thinks will be better than
the Sammy song. The lady is also
a clever writer and has written a
number of poems. which have been
published in eastern papers.

PHILADELPHIA LETTER

Florida people are so used to brag-
cling about their weather that when
away from home they pay especial
attention to the brand handed out to
them, and just now this section of the
country is getting the most unseas-
enable specimen that has visited it

claim) when the only successful
crops raised were those whose own

fields. 1t certainly is cold and dis
people wearing overcoats in July is
something of novelty and not at all
a pleasant one at that. But while the
masculine gender are sporting their
winter rig. the suffragettes are GO
ing to the other extreme and the way
they are conserving clothing above
and below together with thickness or
rather thinness, would make some of
our most up-to-date Ocala bellies look
like back numbers.
Writing of conservation reminds
me of an article in the Star recently
urging people to carry home all pur-
chases and thus reduce expense. That
plan is in very general use here; and
on many of the windows of grocery
and meat stores there is large sign.

which being interpreted means "Cash

extra five cents for delivering and
then only for eight squares; beyond
that distance they will not deliver at

On the 14th of this month Philadel-
phia celebrated what they term a
French fourth of July, commemorate
ing the fall of the Bastille and the
birth of liberty 129 years ago. Some
of the exercises were held in the old
state house in the room in which the
declaration of independence was sign
ed, and which is still furnished with
the same desks, chairs and tables that
were used by Jefferson, Hancock,
Franklin and the others on that men,
orable occasion. This Bastille cele-
! bration held for three days, the
French flag flying from the state
house, fire station and all public
| buildings, together with parades,
music and a talk-fest. A military
band had been sent over from France
every member of which had been on
the firing line and every one wound
ed man. Some of these men had but
one arm. others had lost leg, while
others were totally blind. They made
beautiful music and all appeared to
be extremely happy, but to the on
locker it was sad sight and seemed
to bring the war zone very near.
Tonight, July Is, Philadelphia is to
inaugurate system of lightless
nights. Four nights in each week
there will be no public lighting OF
electric signs. offices will have to cut
out elevators at $50 and not run
them at all on Sundays; lights and
hot water in hotels are to be cut in
