LABOR'S FIRM STAND,

The proletarian autocracy that the
BoIshcvists have set up in Russia
and the attempts they are making to
spread soviet government and revolu-
tionary ideas over the whole world.
have not unnaturally awakened APP
prehensou in many lands.
1t is reassuring. but not the least
surprising learn that the great
trades " ia movement in America
has no. cen infected. but on the con-
tina" yer on the principles of sound
A. ricanism. The loyalty and devo-
TIA of American labor in the great
war was pledge enough that it would
not, after making victory possible,
consent to abandon to the revolution
aries the fruits of victory.
The American Federation of Labor,
during its session last week in Allan
tic City, showed conclusively that
there were few radicals among the
r. presentatives of more than a million
workers. The great majority of the
delegates showed themselves to be
sober ana sensible Americans.
Before the convention gathered,
Hugo Frayne, general organizer of
the federation, gave out an interview
in which he made labor's attitude
clear and succinct. lie said among
other things:
1t is well to make clear that the
American Federation of Labor is Am
erlcan through and through, believing
III American democracy, in the Con-
Stitution of the United States. in the
enforcement of law. in the recognition
of properly constituted authoriLy, IN
the church and in all other ideals up
on which our republic stands. There

DEMOCRAT ORGAN ATTACKS orr
RETURNED SOLDIER.

1t is commonly understood that the
returned soldier. as rule. is opposed
to entangling alliances with Euro
pean nations. The more he has seen
of other countries. the more he loves
his own country. He does not want
this country to bind itself to so to
war except for its own defense.
Because of this position. we are be
ing told by the democratic press that
the soldier who fought in Europe is
not competent to judge, as a rule, of
the justice of the cause for which he
might again be called upon to fight,
Here is an excerpt from The Week

SPRINGER HAS ROTARY CLUB.

number of citizens of Springer
and few of the farmers met at the
Farmers Development company Of
flee Tuesday evening and effected an
organization to be known as the
Springer Rotary club. j. w. Ausher-
man was chosen chairman OF the
meeting and Mr. Zorn secretary. A
committee on ways and means was
appointed, also a committee on MEM
Dership. 1t was agreed to meet him
on next Tuesday evening when a COM
mIttee from the Ration Rotary club
will he present and permanent organ
ization effe cted, the temporary or
ganization to hold until that time
The purpose of Rotary club is to add
vance the betterment OF roads and in
other respects act in the capacity of Il
commercial club. AS Ration and Clay
ton have active Rotary clubs, the
Springer organization will work inI
conjunction with them. Much inter-
est is taken in the movement inI
Springer and with the proper spirit eX-
ercised in every step taken the club can
be the means of doing a great good in
many respects. Roards appear to be the
principal subject on which Rotary
clubs dwell, but there are many other
important matters they can take upl
and solve, tending to social and civic
betterment in the city and community.
One of the important obstacles to
carefully avoid is politics, and when
this breaks into an organization of this
character, it seriously Injuries the pur-
pose of the institution and hampers
its progress. In the selection of strong
men to guide the organization this can
be avoided Now this is a great OPP
portunity for Springer and she has al
chance to profit by this apparent get
together spirit.
In the past the city has had active
commercial clubs, boards of trade and
similar Institutions, but some trivial
matter was permitted to intervene and
they blew up--the whole works and
machinery was wrecked. But in this
last movement there is different work
to perform-heretofor it was to en-,
liven a dying town, while now it is to
push forward the interests Of a grow
ing and progressive town and com
munity.
This city is advancing as rapidly and
as substantially as any in the state It'll
is the duty of its citizens to insist that
this progress continues, and only
through organization can this be done
Every property owned in the city isl
interested, or should be, likewise every
business and professional man.

ANOTHER MIGHTY ACHIEVE
MEGNT.

Again the impossible has occurred
A beavier-than-air machine has made
a nonstop flight across the Atlantic
ocean. 1t carried two men. and ac-
complished the feat in sixteen hours
The honors are shared between
Great Britain and America, though
the larger share must be accorded
Great Britain. because the machine
was of British make and the pilot,
Captain Jack Alcock. Britisher. The
navigator, Lieut. Arthur Written
Brown is an American.
Most of the recent successful adj
ventures. as we'll as the larger mum
Der of useful inventions, must be
credited to British and American gent
us, though there was time when
Spain held the field of adventure
against all corners.
Within recent years an American
discovered the North Pole and an
other American made the first flight
in an airplane across the Atlantic, but
it was not nonstop.
The expedition that discovered Am
erica sailed from Spain, and Spanish
adventurous first explored South Am
erica, Central America and part of
North America. and Balboa was the
first man travelling west to look upon
the Pacific ocean, just as De Soto Was
discoverer of the Mississippi river. But
it was Drake, the Englsman, who cir
COMMUNICATED the globe, and it was
Henry NJ. Stanley. an American. who
opened up the Dark Continent.
An Englishman was the first to
harness steam and an American
chained electricity and made it the
servant, instead of the terror. of man
kind An Engishman built the first
railroad and an American the first
steamboat, and an American invented
the submarine. the sewing machine,
the cotton gin, the telephone. the
electric light and the flying machine.
All of this inquisitiveness !nto the
secrets of nature and the laws of me-
chanics is but characteristic OF the
English speaking people, who have
been pioneers in freedom of thought,
therefore in freedom of government
and religion.
1t is not Improbable that the year
1919 will he far more remembered in
history as the beginning of an era
of aerial transportation than as the
year in which world peace was made,
Woodrow Wilson, before he ever
thought of becoming president, or at
least before people had begun to think
of him in that position, said
We live for our own aGe-an age
like Shakespeare when an old world
was passing away. a new world COM
ing tn-an age of new invention and
every new adventure of the mind a
full stage, an intricate plot, a univer-
sal play of passion. and an outcome
no man can foresee.'
This is a mighty age blazing and
instinct with the spirit of change, and
We who live in it are fortunate if we
have even a glimpse of the things tina
are just beyond a few sunrises fro
us.

OUR INTELLIGENT SOLDIERS.

The old European idea was that the
common geezer" was on the earth to
obey orders-to pay all the taxes the
governments demanded and to fight
when called upon to do so by some
one higher up. Education of the
masses was not encouraged; indie
pendent thinking was frowned upon.
But in America, the people rule.
Here the power is in the hands of the
majority, and the greatness of our
nation has been made possible by the
fact that the masses of our people
have been educated as the masses
have been educated in no other nation
in the world.
Book learning was more general in
Germany, but the education was di-
rected by the state for the state. The
people We're taught that they were
the servants of the government, and
that the government derived its pow
ers from God.
In this country the state is the Gre
alton of the people. therefore the ser
want of the people.
Our soldiers made a wonderful rec
ord in Europe. because they were the
most independent thinkers that could
be found in any army in Europe.
They had individual initiative
The American soldier knew when
he went to Europe exactly what he
was fighting for. 1t was for the hon
or and the perpetuity of the United
States as a free nation.
The American soldier who has
served overseas is opposed to any en-
tangling alliances with foreign coun-
tries, and he is so expressing himself
This fact has brought down upon his
head the wrath of a democratic editor
in New Mexico imported from Texas
by way of Deming
This editor says the American sol
der is Ignorant and illiteratc," and
that it was necessary in the training
camps for him to learn his right foot
from his left.
Fortunately that editors views are
not the views of the democrats of this
state, Here. the vast majority of his
own party knows that the American
soldier is intelligent, has views of his
own, knows how to maintain them on
the field of battle or at the ballot
box, and will do so when necessity
arises.

CHANGE OF NAME TO FIT THE
CAUSE.

New Mexico state Independent
beginning with the next issue of
the New Mexico State Independent,
June Goth, the paper will add new
and popular feature for its statewide
rcaders-a department in Spanish.
The name of this paper, "Independ-
ent," which has been confusing to its
patrons as to politics. will he changed
to Repubican"--the principles to
which the editor allied himself over
four years ago when the name of the
paper was changed from New Mexico
State Democrat to New Mexico State
Independent. Now we find it neces-
sary in compliance to the request of
leaders in the republican party to APP
ply a name that denotes the sincW,
bone and brain of America in all
things pertaining to economic. safe
and sane governmental affairs and the
wisest business-like government on
earth only when in the hands of the
republican party. For only short
time (this paper to be known here
after as the New Mexico State Repub-
lican) will remain its present size, but
will be enlarged to double its size in
accord with the wishes and patronage
already assured from members of the
republican party throughout the
state. This change. in adding Span
ish department, is not intended to con-
fiict with any of the interests of the
many able Spanish publications in the
state, but only to widen the circula-
ton and be more useful to the party
and the people in all matters of public
policy in promoting the interests of
the whole people for progress, inn
provement. development of our vast
untouched resources, prosperity and
happiness for every citizen in New
Mexico, and those who may come to
live among us. which means a contn-
uance of republican administration
