The Senate

1t Is a little too soon to average
up the results Of the legislative SEES
sion Just closed and pass deliberate
Judgment upon It. Perhaps\i it should
be borne in mind that SO far as the
house was concerned a large number
OF the. members we're new and mex
perienced at the business, and that the
house lacked c~onspicuously able lead
ership. Keeping legislative machinery
running smoothly and efficiently is not
the easiest thing in the world. 1t Is
quite safe to say that a great many
legislatures have done much worse
than the recent one; its record is at
least free from extrayagance and for
the first time In years progressive,
public spirited measures were con
spicuous among the subjects Of de-
bate and action, at least much more in
the spotlight than ever before.
Regarding the work especially Of the
state senate, which had the advantage
of knowing the ropes through previous
experience, strong commendation is in
order. The state senate is a pretty
fair average bunch OF representative
New Mexico citizens, it worked with
out fuss or noise and covered the
ground pretty thoroughly; and it in,

No more Thirty Days Hath Sep

The American Equal Month Calen-
dar Association, with sublime o..
timism, has started a propaganda for
the reform Of the calendar, doing
away with the long-legged and the
short-legged months, making the alb
breviated February the standard
with its % days, and inserting a new
month after March called Liberty"
This association would have thirteen
months Of equal length, % days each,
leaving the first day of the Year
out OF all months or weeks as "Nry
Year pay" Monday will be the
first day OF every month and Sat
urday the last working day Of every
month. All other holidays and amt
versaries would always fall on the
same day of the week. a promissory
note for any number Of weeks,
months or years would always AL
due on the same day of the week
as when given. ct cetera.
It's a swell scheme-but we'd hate
to have the job Of lobbying It
through Congress after the furore

caused.

Mel enathan Of
Carlsbad Was
Empire Builder

The death of c. H. McLenathen OF
Carlsbad removes a New Mexican who
was in the best sense of the word an
empire builder. Coming to Carlsbad,
then Eddy, in 1889, McLenathen was
the first man to have a brick real es-
tate office and a real sign, a big blue
one that is remembered by old timers.
An old resident of the Pecos Valley
told the New Mexican today about Nc
Lenathen's muley COW. 1t was the first
cow to furnish milk in the Pecos Val
ley; you had to have some one hold
her head while you MIXED her and
She was known far and wide as "The
Sacred Cow Of the Pecos."
McLenathen died at the age of 66,
as much mourned probably as any mar
who ever lived in the Pecos Valley,
Coming west nearly dead in quest OF
health, he was always more or less OF
an invalid but accomplished more
than many able bodied men. He was
always a leader in everything that
~pertained to irrigation development
and wherever the water users congre-
gated together there was McLenathen.
He was d most important factor III

valley from sand dunes to garden and
his public spirit was proverbial. INC
Lenathen would have died a rich man
II he hadn't been SO public spirited 7
said the old timer today. HE literally
gave himself to his community and
no matter how busy always had time
To lend a helping hand to some one
WIN needed IN McT.enathen was re-
markedly well read. He was a square
man and when he got off wrong and
found it out he always went to the
wronged party and admitted It,"
McLenathen was mayor OF Carlsbad

place whereby the town went dry BY

shout tho German aituatioA on facts

shout the German situation on facts.
Bona-fide information has been at a
premium v since the war started.
AS a matter Of fact it has seemed to
tax the military resources of Germany
to cope with a local revolt IN Berlin.
We have heard Of bodies OF govern
ment troops as large as 10000, which
latter all is a rather small drop In the
bucket compared with the millions
that entered Belgium. It must always
be borne in mind that public state
ments by Germans are for home con-
sumption by one element or another.
The case OF Eisner, who was assassin
'ated, ia pointed out as demonstrating
the unwisdom Of saying things which
don't make q hit with the Hun home
folk.
There is danger of exaggerating,
perhaps, the present power Of Ger
many to resist the peace terms, as a
result Of the continuing braggadocio
OF the Hun and his effort to maintain
the attitude Of a conqueror. The con-
queror who will deliver over hundreds
OF thousands of railroad rolling stock
meekly on demand may perhaps main,
tain his attitude Of conquest If it
makes him feel better. Meanwhile the
wisdom OF the early signing Of a peace
treaty and the enforcement of its
terms upon the Prussian if the world
is to settle down TO the job OF prevent
ing future wars is more and more evil
dent
Actual acceptance by the yanquish-
ed Of the Victor's terms: the reduction
actually of German military forces to
100000: the beginning Of actual com
pliance with indemnity claims; these
and other actual demonstrations of the
real defeat of Germany, whether or
not she dons the yoke singing
Deutschland Ueber Allies" win take
the wind out Of the sails or boche
propaganda more quickly than any
else. Meanwhile, let us remem-
Der that most of the stuff now coming
out Of Germany is hot air.
