We were when brought 10 taw.
We hate to vex the old New Mex,
But when It airs As grudge
The people Brin and grin and grin
And softly murmur, "Hudgei"
AGAIN WE arose early In pleasure
able anticipation Of witnessing the first
rays Of the Benign sun OF the Dawn
Of the New Day illuminating the
playful activities OF the Hubbell-
Hanna ticket amidst the public well
fare. But again keen disappoint-
ment was our lot. Clouds strangely
Ike unto n conspiracy OF silence OBJ
secured the dawn.
CAN 1T BE that Mr.. Hanna Inc
Mr.. Hubbell are TO complete their
joint campaign without any light?

SURE. we will do Just as Mr.. Han
ia proposes and abolish the state
highway commission, deity Flip the
federal aid road funds back to the
u. S. treasury which can use them
and let our concrete boulevard finish
right where It is. That will be nice.
HOW DOES VI leading good
roads booster, Colonel Sellers, stand
on that pledge to wreck all h state
hishways9
OF COURSE Mr.. Putncy burdened
as he Is under a staggering load OF
unjust assessment. wants road eKpen-
dlturcs stopped.
MR. HunDEi4L merely wanta
them diverted into channels which
have long been Dry
Do you awake at break OF day
And hustle out from meath the hay
Int your yard pajama clad
To gfcet the Mourning Journal lad;
And there await with JOY to sec
Tho Mornings change OF policy
Do you prop up the mourning sheet,
While munching at your shredded
wheat,
To read with shudders of alarm
How wicked bosses mean you harm;
How malefactors Of great wealth
Propose to wreck the civic health?
And with your rolls and coffee
down,
Do you make hurried traclcs for town
In fear that foes of human rights
Have been awake and working nights
TO find that all your property
liz stiil where It had ought to be?"

"Why the effort to put the burden
on us? They should do the proving
that they have been worthy servants %
the Mourning Journal.
You see how simple II Is? You
have been called crooks without any
evidence at all that there Is anything
crooked. Now come up mt prove
that you are not crooks.
WHAT no! We note an assertion
of fact in connection with MIR.
Hanna's campaign that cannot DO de-
MED. MIR. Magce says:
I'VE assert that these lands be-
long to the school children of New
Mexico ahs. nin.nR
That's almost right.

MIR. HANNA'S airplane. according
to a Santa Fe authority. went DEM
oera'ic by $1,000 plurality
THINK Of being able to pick up a
thousand dollars Just by proving that
you've told the TRUTH
The ghosts now haunting Hanna
Are nothing like as grim
As h votes wen cast manana

attention from him.

perfumed pastime. There's a streak
OF yellow right in the middle Of the
immediate perspective also.

ALSO WE NOTE that the Colonel
finds 'the chill winds are sweeping
across the mesas." Maybe that Is
what Is giving Hanna the creeps.
I'VE hope 10 say to certain
leaders and certain intereata pay

You weren't meaning to put over

Bob. were you Mr.. Hanna?

TELL THIS ONE TO HANNA
The waning OF Cox's popularity is
like that of Bryan's in 1904.
The advance OF Harding's popu.
larity is like that of McKinley's.
The contrast and familiarity recalls
the famous frog story.
In the beginning of the Mckinley
Bryan campaign the democrats were
growing loudly that Bryan's name
was on every lip and McKinleys was
seldom heard. II was noise, noise.
noise for Bryan.
A farmer who visited the city saw
frogs legs listed on the hotel menu.
He sought put the manager and
asked whether he was in the market
for frogs. Upon being told that no
was the farmer asked what will you
pay for frogs"
Fifty cents a dozen replied the no
tel manager.
What will you pay by the car
load" asked the farmer.
Same price" was the answer.
Gould YOU use ten car loads
asked the farmer.
Certainly, bring them along, all
YOU can deliver he was answered.
/ In a few days the farmer returned
carrying a tin pail Of water and in II
were three little frogs.
