Amsterdam, Sept 25.-General Won
w. Risberg addressed the main COM
mittee of the reichstag on behalf of
the minister of war. He explained, ac-
eording to a telegram from Berlin,
that the failure of the German often
sive on the western front was due to
the failure of the German arm yto sur
prise the entente allies and the neces-
sity of assuming the defensive on the
arrival Of the English home army in
the theater of war, to the employment
of colored troops and to the interven-
ton of American divisions. Referring
to the entente allied attack on the
Marne salient, General Won Risberg
said the withdrawal of the German
troops was necessary" for strategical
reasons and was completely success
full"
Thus the first offensive of the
enemy" he added, "brongiR4~ him IA
tactical success. but considered in the
light of his great strategical aims it
can be regarded as not having sue
ceeded."
Admits British Vicbry.
General Won Risberg described the
British victory between the Ancre and
the Avre rivers as great success
due to the massed employment OF
tanks and surprise under the potection
of their fire.
The withdrawal of the Hindenburg
line, the general said, was due to a
lack of well consolidated positions.
Speaking of the American victory
in the st. Mihiel sector, General Won
Weisburg said.
"It lies in the nature of the case that
we. as the defenders, lost considera-
Bile number of guns and prisoners. We
can, however, with assurance, calcu-
late that the emmy obtained his sue
eesses on the first days of the attack
by surprise with small losses, but for
the rest he suffered the heaviest
losses
"The American army should not ter
rify us We shall also settle with
them"

Santa Fe, Sept. 25.--With all dele
gates to the democratic state conven-
tion on the ground the situation at
midnight is decidedly muddled. Aside
from the fact that Congressman Wal
ton appears to have a clear lead for
the senatorial nomination, nothing is
certain except Antonio Lucero for
congress.
The enigma Of the pre-convention
milling is Robert Il. Putney He Is GO
ing to he nominated for something.
unless he refuses. Part of his friends
want him for the senate, in the belief
that he would make stronger race
against Fall than Walton could for
the senate even If he desired TO do so,
is possible but hardly probable, Wal
ton has positive friends who will fight
for his nomination TO the last ditch
and who will resent It II he Is not the
senatorial nominee.
TalInmdgc-V Vec,ler Alliance.
TalImadge will have considerable
strength in the convention, particular
w as there appears to be an alliance
between him and Elmer Veeder, who
is the san Miguel candidate for the
governorship. Socorro county is for
Veeder, and It is commonly rumored
that San Miguel county will be for
Tallmadge, The report that any con-
siderable number OF Bernalillo ooun-
ty delegates will he fore Tallmadge is
not borne out by close inquiry among
members of that delegation. He may
have four votes from Bernalllo coun-
ty, but he is not likely to get more at
any stage of the game.
b. X. b. Sellers has considerable
following but it Is rot believed that he
has enough to overcome the handicap
of not having his own county delega-
ton behind him,
There is some talk of State Treasur-
er Hall for the nomination, but IL is
now generally believed that he will he

flee he now holds.
Garcia Declines.
The movement for the nomination
of Felix Garcia for the gubernatorial
nomination was ended by MIR Garcia
himself who said he could not give
the time II would require from his
business. There is probability how
ever, that Mr. Garcia will be nomi-
mated for lieutenant governor.
1t is practically certain that Duran,
of Union county. and Hanna of Santa
Fe, will be nominated for secretary of
state and supreme court judge, re-
spectively.
Comparatively few of the delegates

ton, claiming they wish to remain
free to vote for the man they believe
TO be the strongest whaever the Of

MAKE PRICE-FIxING GENERAL

Price-fxing has so curbed extortion,
so far as food is concerned, that we
wonder the experiment is not extend
ed to cover other necessities of life.
For example, why should not the
price of wool and cotton, and of wool
en- and cotton manufacturers, be fixed
by the government during the war?
Raw wool and cotton, whose prices
are uncontrolled by the government,
have mounted in price much faster
than coal and flour, which have been
controlled.
When one of the frequent rises in
selling prices is announced every man
~ufacturer, jobber and wholesaler inn
mediately and naturally adds that in
crease in price to the stock he has
on hand. For the cloth or the manu-
featured suit which he would have
sold at $40 before the rise in price
was announced he Immediately de-
mands $11 or $12 and sometimes more.
He has to protect himself.
Now it is evident, whatever ex-
cuse may be offered for raising the
price of goods that are yet to be man
ufactured, that excuse does not apply
to goods that have already been man
ufactured and which could have been
and which were formerly sold profit
ably at the lower price.
The individual or the firm who at
taches this increase to goods already
in stock and formerly held at a low
er price is simply getting an unfair
profit out of war conditions. He is
a profteer pure and simple, so far
as that increase is concerned.
And nobody ought to be allowed tc
be a profiteer in these times.
The only way to remedy these con-
ditions is to place clothing and every
other necessity of life under govern
ment control. exactly as food has beer
placed under government control.
There should be a textile commits
sion to regulate the price of WOO
and cotton.
If something of this kind is not done
soon ordinary folks will be unable t
wear decent clothing after a while

TOOK HIS CAPToR PRISONER.

An American physician, serving in
the battle zone in France, reports the
following incident in a letter to the
folks at home. Last week the Ger
mans made a night raid on a trench
in my ector and in the mixup a Hun
captured an American boy. The Ger
man hurt the youngster so badly that
he fell unconscious. When he came TO
he found himself on the Huns back,
enjoying a swift ride to the Hun
trenches. The boy thought swiftly:
If 1 go over there it will be hell.
Jerking one hand loose. he whaled the
German in the face, broke the fellows
nose and knocked him to the ground.
To make doubly sure, he grabbed the
Germans gun and shot him in the calf
of the leg. The American then marched
him back to our trenches and on to
the hospital. When the doctor asked
the boche where he was hit he moan
ed: In the head. He had forgotten
all about the gunshot in the leg"

MOB VIOLENCE CAN NOT AID IN
WINNING OF THE WAR.

Thoughtful Americans will not APP
prove acts like that reported by a
speaker in Spokane Wednesday of ri
ding a pro-German suspect OF a hot
iron rail, the victim now in the hos
pital from his wounds.
Three reasons arise against such
cruelties, any of them sufficient alone
to deter good Americans from their
commission.
They have a brutalizing effect on
the members of the mob, and to a con-
siderable extent upon the community
that permits them
They will be used in Germany to in
cite atrocities against captured Ameri-
can soldiers.
And they are a species of ~disloyalty.
First-class A~mericanism demands
thoroughgoing loyalty TO the laws
and the courts. The mob spirit is the
spirit of rebellion against orderly gov
eminent.
And vet another reason exists. The
mob is moved by passion and swayed
by impulse. 1t is incapable of the clear,
cool reasoning that is so essential to
Justice. Often innocent men and wom-
en- are victims of its binding rage.
There are several million Americans
in this country of German birth or
origin. Undoubtedly some of them are
German spies, and undoubtedly a num-
Der are pro-German in sympathy. But
an overwhelming majority of our citi-
bens of German extraction are loyal
and true and are meeting well the test
of the hour. Once give the mob spirit
free sway and gross wrongs and cruel
ties will be inflicted upon innocent and
worthy men and women.
Appeal in every instance should be 10
the law. If one has a TO suspect
disloyalty, it is his duty to report his
suspicious to the officers Of the law
to the United States marshal or a dep
uty. to the United States attorney. or
to an officer of the secret service OF the
United States. If Gee can not read

WAR SECRETARY BAKER
ON REGISTRATION JUNE }

The secretary of war authorizes the
following:
With the signing by President vii
son of the bill and proclamation desig-
mating Wednesday, June 5, as the day
on which all men who have reached
the age of q since last June ) shall
register for military service, Provost
Marshal General Crowder's office inn
mediately began preparations for the
enrolment of the men. Instead of US
ing the eelction machinery as was done
last year, Gen. Crowder will call upon
the local boards. 1t is believed that
their experience during the past year
has peculiarly fitted them to handle
the new registration economically and
efficiently.
Gen. Crowder has estimated that
probably three-quarters of a million
men will be added to the American
army by the new registration. His
estimate is based on the fact that al
most 10000. 900 men registered last
year. This number included all be-
tween the ages of 81 and 81, and sta
tistics collected by Gen. Crowder's
/ office show that a little more than 10
per cent of these men we're Il years
old. On that basis it is estimated by
draft officials that the total registra-
ton will exceed 1000, 900, of which
$50, 900 will be available for military
service. This makes proper allow
