BAD FAITH.

Here you have example of what may be ex-
pected in the approaching controversy over a direct
primary law.
An old school politician who feels his foot slip
ping, approached a spanish-American with this:
American will have money enough to get on
the ballot make campaign
Ten minutes afterward he approached an Anglo
American with this "If the direct primary goes
into effect Anglo American will ever be nomi-
mated. The Spanish Americans will nominate every
officer"
Do not waste time trying to decide which time
he was insincere. The answer is, both times"
1t will cost nothing to get primary ballot
The expense of canvas be little as a can
dfdate cares TO make it. But BOSS tell him
whether or not he may run. Every will. be
free-born citizen, exercising his own judgment
about that.
Every group of citizens who feel certain
ought to run for office put him the ballot by
petition without let hindrance from some boss.
The natural competition for a nomination will
put enough candidates a ticket to prevent any
the Spanish American citizen
Such argument is as old as the primary sys-
tenn. Many thought that labor, in congested labor
districts, would control the primaries. But it does
not work out that way.
The man who thinks that America is better off
when II trusts batch of designing bosses instead
of when trusting the good judgment of the rank and
file of the people, has hopeless mental bias.
We must get this "ruling class" idea out of our
heads if the America of tomorrow is to be free.

QUIT TOBACCO
So easy to drop Cigarette,
Cigar or Chewing habit

No-To-Bac has helped thousands
to break the costly, nerve-shatter-
ing tobacco habit. Whenever you
have longing for a smoke or
chew, just place a harmless No
To-Bac tablet in your mouth in
stead. All desire stops. Shortly
the habit is completely broken, and
you are better off mentally, phys
ically, financially. It's SO easy, SO
simple. Get box of No-To-Bac
and if it doesn't release you from
all craving for tobacco in any
form, your druggist will refund
your money without question. No
To-Bac is made by the owners of
Cascarets; therefore is thoroughly
reliable.

Although Jupiter rules this day
kindly Saturn, Uranus and the Sun
are all adverse.
1t is sway under which bust
ness affairs that are carried on in
dependently should prosper, but it
is most unfortunate for those who
must depend, on banks or friends
Tor assistance. e..
Uranus is in a place supposed TO
cause subtle fear and to retard en-
terprise.
One of the influences of this
planetary government is to cause
loss of self-confidence. This eff
feet of sinister stars is likely to be
encouraged by propaganda where
political fortunes are in the bal
anCe.
Colleges and secondary schools
come under rule that promises
much in educational attainment,
but the coming year win not be
fortunate one for legacies or gifts.
Jupiter seems to promise a more
liberal view where women are con-
cerned, even marriage being sub
ject to this growing gentleness of
judgment.
Uranus is in an aspect supposed
to inspire selfish and even cruel
acts due to greed.
The signs read as foreeasting in
crease of selfishness seem to be re-
sponsible, astrologers assert, to a
prevalent lack of good manners,
especially among the young.
1t is not an suspicious day for
making changes, or for seeking
favors of any sort.
Those who desire positions or
need employment win increase in
number from the waning of this
moon, the seers declare.
Inventors may go through an
especially discouraging period
which will continue for several
months, but many new devices will
be needed in the future and pros
perity is assured in 1921 to all who
contribute to practical wants.
Awakening of interest in litera-
ture and art is presaged for the
coming winter when some national
that will appeal to the
intellect is foreshadowed.
Persons whose birth date it is
should attend strictly to business
in the coming year. Those who
are employed should be very dill
gent.
Children born on this day may
be too fond of pleasure to like
work, but they are likely to be
gifted and able to make success
'or themselves.

Reading your paper these days
takes me back TO the good old times
when we had newspapers all about
that were run in the interest of the
public.
OF late days, it is too seldom that
we can find a paper in the smaller
towns and cities of the country that
are uncontrolled by some ''inter-
est" In fact, many Of us quit look
ing for the unbiased and free daily
press out here in New Mexico some
years ago,
1t is refreshing to read a paper
now that one knows to be owned
and paid for by the man who gives
his personal attention to the job
of making it. A paper ought to be
in position to stand and fight for

Go To 1t Boys.


Editor Morning Journal:
May / be permitted to suggest
that as we now thave the Bow
Scouts started here that one very
patriotic function they might per
form would. be to see that every
American flag that is displayed in
town is Kept in proper condition
and not be displayed as some now
are in rags and tatters and certain
ly pot automatically fit to repre-
sent the country.
Right on Central avenue there is
a bad example of this that should
be remedied and 1t does seem to
me that a property owner that is
patriotic enough to fly the flag over
his property should certainly see
that it is in a good condition. If the
Stars and Stripes be good enough to
live under it is certainly good
enough to be kept at least whole
and clean.

Hidalgo County copper Mines.

Columbus Courier: The discov-
cry of strikes of copper, silver and
gold ores made some time ago and
extensively prospected at that time,
are now being developed by the
Little Ratchet Mining company.
Holdings are located in the Little
Ratchet mountains, covering over
800 acres.
A permanent camp known as
Hatchet City has been established
by the company. Additional ma
chinery and equipment will be adj
ded as needed.
Every foot of ground for miles
around the Little Ratchet proper
ties has been located and eastern
and Arizona mining interests are
expected to enter the new field at
once to exploit the entire copper
belt.
