WHY THE DEMOCRATIC
TICKET WILL WIN

Actually fighting in the world war
will probably cease within year, but
United States Senators are elected foI
six years. There will be vital ques
tions in our after the war legisla
tion, which the Senator we elect No
vember will have to consider. New
Mexico owes 1t to herself and to the
rest Of the nation to select Senator
who is safe, conservative and de-.
pendable, one who will represent all
the people. w. B. Walton is such a
man.
Verbal pyrotechnics are sometimes
effective in catching the unthnkins
voter back home, but in the United
States Senate the man who sticks to
his post and works for the interests
Of his constituents is the one who
gets results. w. B. Walton is con.
sistent worker as his record shows,
while Senator Fall has in his six years
service averaged but 40 per cent efii
cient IN voting and attendance.
None the less important is the cleo
tion as representative in Congress OF
Democrat to support President Viii
son and his administration in these
critical times. Judge Granville A.

governor. He is level.headed bust
ness man. OF known worth, integrity

preme bench. Justice Richard H.
Hanna Is free from all "entangling al
liances." BY reason Of his splendid
record, legal ability. Independence and
experience he will be reelected by the
people.
The presiding officer OF the State
Senate must be man who Is an az.
Derienced parliamentarian and who
has the courage OF his convictions.

ocratIc nominee for Lieutenant COVER
nor. who ia certain to be elected.

school lands. They must be- safe:
guarded. The election Of George A.
