WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE
AGAIN DEFEATED

Santa Fe, March Suffrage went
down to defeat IN New Mexico legis-
lature for the fourth time, the knock
out blow being struck by the Republi-
can machine Of the lower house. Al
though fOrewarned by one Of the party
leaders that defeat of the suffrage bill
would heap an irreparable sin upon
the majority members those members
dealt the blow which put Susan An
thony down for the full count.
In the course of the warning afore-
mentioned the majority leader stated
that he hoped if the Republican mem
hers voted the suffrage bill down that
the party would lose the next state
election" Democratic members who
voted solidly for the measure took the
cue and assured the Republicans that
the next state election would he lost
by them anyway.

GOOD BUSINESS JUDGMENT

-
This week Uncle Henry Miller Miller
closed Il deal for section Of land
north of town from Dennis Bros. for
which he paid $4,000. This is fine
place and nobody knows II better than
Mr. Mli'cr Cor he formerly owned It,
having sold the place about n year ago
for $4,000. After selling the place
Mr. Miller left Curry County, but
found nothing he liked better than his
old home place so returned and bought
1t back. This showed excellent bust
ness Judgment on the part of Mr..
Miller. Curry County land is valuable
and when man gets a place he likes
1t is Il good business Judgment to tie
onto it.

A BRIGHT FUTURE

Indications are that Dame Fortune is going
to look with a smiling face on Clovis and Curry
County this year and give us most prosperous
season. There is good season in the ground
and indications are that this will be an excellent
crop year. Clovis is destined to have the great
est era of hdme building she has ever had in her
history. Right now there are more than twenty
five new homes under construction with scores
being contemplated to help fill the increasing
demand here for places for folks to live The
city council has granted the petition of property
owners asking for the construction of ten new
blocks of city paving (nearly mile of paving)
which will be commenced just as soon as the
machinery can be put in motion. And in addi-
tion to all this who knows but that great oil
field will be developed right near us when the
test well is put down in the fabian field. The
Magic City is shaking off her village rags and is
destined to make a little city if her present
growth keeps up.
