The day of "yeIlow-dog" partisanship is fast
drawing TO a close
Voters longer casting their ballots for
the party which their fathers or grandfathers
supported, unless that party also happens to be
the which the descendants themselves con-
slider worthy of their mandate
This is the way, in all probability, in which
the majority of the voters in New Mexico are
going to decide the issues now before them. And
in deciding he issue, they will have before them
a decades unbroken legislative record before
them.
Count by count, Clinton p. Anderson, our
staff correspondent at Sana Fc is building up a
powerful Indictment against the boss-ridden re-
publican party in New Mexico. Unadorned with
rhetoric or any tricks of the literary trade the ar
raignment is based scrupulously on tne records of
the legislature with only such Interpretation and
explanaton-and more-as is necessary to
make that record clear to ayrnen VINO have not
ff,+laEed recent politics closely is required
fully to understand the round, unvarnished tale"
that correspondent is delivering.
What has tn, republican party done for la
Dor for women, for the common people as a
whole-for great middle class that is the
backbone of American life?
Says Mr.. Anderson:
Republican legislatures have considered and
rejected bills for the prevention of child labor,
to establish eght-hour day for women in in
dustry, to provide adequate compensation for in
jured working men, to prohibit employers from
interfering with the politics of employed, to es-
tablish a minimum wage and to fix eight hours
as the legal limit for working day for all
laborers. These bills the republican major!ties
have systematically and regularly turned down,
passing in their stead a Workingmens compersa-
ton law which allows a totally disabled workman
to draw one-half his salary provided that the
maximum shall not exceed $12 week"
Again. while republican partys platform
in 1916 pledged the submission of equal suffrage
to the of the state, the legislature of 1917
rejected womans suffrage and refused to subrnt
it. This action was taken by republican major
tiles in both houses.
Reviewing the republican party's obstructive at
itude toward good government in another article
our correspondent points out: From the record it
would appear that the republican party, which
has controlled every Legislature in statehood has
been against the passage Of a primary law 20 de-
fine lobbying law to keep corporations out of
politics and to prevent the dlcation by employers
of the politics of employees"
These instances only few of those avail
able from the record. We urge every cOnsCien-
tious voter to follow Mr.. Andersons series of ar
tices closely verify any doubts he may have
from the record itself, and then vote in Il way
his conscience dictates.
There will be only choice left him--to
vote out of power a party that has ruled SO many
years and accomplished little good.

THE DREAMS OF YOUTH.

1 wish I had my dreams again. my cherished
dreams of olden days
Before I'd heard the call of men and learned
to follow in their ways;
For then the world was glorious with honor
browning every hill
And coming home victorious was just feat of
strength and skill
1 feared no foe, those days of old, there were
no pits for me to dread
Nor summers heat winters cold could
daunt me as J. Jared ahead;
Through eyes of youth l saw afar the heights
of glory Turing me,
achieve my victory.
1 had thought that 1 might err, that folly
must be mine to know,
That / should feel lfes cruel spur or lose the
road l wished to go;
defend the right;
And there was naught l couldn't do in those
lost dreams of young delight.
But at times the road seems long, and
facts bitter things to face,
1t is not easy to be strong-one careless step
may mean disgrace; t..
hate and hurt everywhere;
l, wish l had my dreams again when all the
world was wondrous fair.

THE TIRED WORKING MAN.

The Public Health Service, together with 9TH
ers in this country and abroad has found that in
the Industries of this country there is waste of
human energy beyond all comparison with that
of raw materials power.
The is due to the traditional belief on
the part of employers that Il mans a man or Il
woman is a woman and that work is work. and
to letting it go at that.
A is not mere man, but an accumula-
ton of strength and energy, like the heat units
in coal that can be reduced to definite analysis.
Man power is subjected to variations and
influences than are common to any raw material
or mechanical force. 1t is the cOstliest ingredi-
ent entering into manufacture.
But to conserve it for the benefit of industry
isn't the primary purpose in the federal health
services excursions into industrial hygiene. Its
sole intent is to promote the public health.

ANYTHING else except good health" declared a
public health official. I'VE into manufacture
ing plants and study processes, from the engineer

Although Venus is in benefic as

Saturn and Mars are strongly adj

1t appears that women are tc
gain great power under this rule
of the stars and thus they viii
arouse the antagonism of men. This
sway is likely to affect political
conditions.
This is a planetary government
peculiarly fortunate to all who de-
pend on the patronage of crowds
Theaters and hotels should benefit
greatly.
The stars smile on new plays
that are produced during this as
pect, which makes for financial
gain as we'll as artistic success.
The seers prophesied two years
ago that the stage would develop
new leading women who would
command public favor. They de-
clare that there is to be a PERIOD
when charm instead of genius DOM
mates the theater.
Happy is the bride who has
named this for her wedding day,
unless she has chosen a husband
much older than herself.
Again a falling off of the num-
Der of marriages is indicated by
the planets.
Music is subject to the best pos

national capital is ruled by planets
especially favorable to the develop
ment of all the arts.

GULF FISHING GOOD; "
RECORDS HAULS MADE
(By The Associated Press)


Port Lavaca, Tex, oct. 24.-De-
voices of the sport of deep water
fishing have bagged record catches
along the gulf reefs and eddies this
year. Fishing has been excellent
for the entire 1920 season, both as
to size and quantity.
Game fish playing has been more
in evidence this year than ever be-
fore, south Texas anglers assert,
and the hauls of trout, fighting
reddish and kingfish have in
creased in proportion.
Trout and reddish have been talk
en- in larger numbers than usual,
both along the shell reefs of the
bay shore and at the jetties. Floun-
ders have not been as plentiful as
last year, but veteran 'giggers" re-
port good catches from a number
of the known fields. Shrimps and
crabs, however, have been plenti-
full the entire season, except dur
ing the latter part of July when,
for no known reason, fishermen
returned without their customary
large bags of these delicacies.
Spanish mackerel, which were
scarce in early season, descended
on the south Texas coast in great
numbers during the latter part Au-
gust and the whole of September.
The Spanish mackerel run is de-
clared by veteran gulf fishermen to
have been the greatest in years.
Along with the exceptionally good
mackerel fishing, great numbers Of
ingfish-known as the gamest and
speediest of the finny tribe--were
taken at the jetties and the reefs.
During the entire season fish
ermen who utilized yachts or bay
steamers in going to particularly
good fishing grounds, seldom re-
turned with less than 200 pounds as
a DAYS catch.

and is snoring" thought Uncle
Wiggily. 81 had better be careful"
So he looked around, and soon
saw that the buzzing sound was
caused by a hornet bee, who had
one leg caught fast in the crack of
a tree.
ooh, will some one please help
me get loose!" buzzed the hornet.
Yes. l shall be most happy to
set you Free" spoke Uncle Wiggily,
and he helped the hornet get his
legs free. Then the hornet thank
ed the bunny gentleman and flew
away. I.-
Uncle Wiggily hoped on and
soon he came to a large field where
he heard the shouts of many ami
NAL boys. But something seemed
to be the matter.

said. -,
