Election Contest in Luna County.

There is to be- an election con-
test in Luna county, hinged on the
exclusion Of the votes of about sew
onty negro women in Columbus
precinct. These votes were reject
cd by the election board on the
ground that the women were not
entitled to vote.
The Democratic candidate for
sheriff has but eight majority, and
his election will be contested by
the Republican candidate, who will
allege that the votes of the women
mentioned were wrongfully exclud-
ed, and that if counted they would
give him a majority.
A large body of negro soldiers
are stationed at Columbus, and the
women in question belong to the
camp in some capacity.

CORRECTED ELEC-
TION RESULTS

Unofficiat compilations from COM
plete returns give the Republican
electors in New Mexico plurality
of 1,407, while Mechem's plurality
for governor is 1926. The other
pluralities of candidates are: Mon
toya for congress. 1925; Duckworth
for lieutenant governor, 4,745; Mar
tinez for secretary of state, 500;
Stafford for state auditor, 1915;
Strong for state treasurer, 5,706;
Bowman for attorney general, g.
064; Conway for superintendent of
public instruction, 5,645; Field for
land commissioner, $3.50; Parker
for supreme court, 6,252; Williams
for corporation commissioner, 1918.
Changes are made in the list of
members elected to the lower house
of the legislature as published in
this paper last week as follows:
Instead of Foutz, Democrat.
Brock, Republican, is elected in the
7th district; instead of Sutton, Re-
publican, Beatty, Democrat, is elect
ed in the 11th district. In the
1Gth, 18th, 22nd, 23rd and oath
classed as doubtful last week, Win
ston, Republican, Crenshaw, Demo-
crat, and Wade, Robinson and
Hughes, Republicans, are elected
The senate list as published last
week was correct, except that the
eth Observation-Disclosures county
was omitted. Valencia undoubtedly
elected Republican, and that
would make the senate membership
fifteen Republicans and nine Demo-
Gratis.
Accounts in the daily papers all
give twenty-three senatorial dist
ricts, omitting the 18th, but say the
senate stands seventeen Republicans
to nine Democrats. We don't know
how this comes about, unless they
count Bursum as the extra two SEN
ators in the "third house"
The house stands thirty-three Re-
publicans and sixteen Democrats.
Fourteen Of the twenty-six coun-
ties give 9,693 votes for the road
bonds, and 1866 against, making
it certain that the road bonds are
defeated.
The Republicans for the next two
years will have power to work their
will in New Mexico. Keep your
eyes open and see what they do.

4 LECUMINOUs LAUDATION.

Sir: ! confess | cannot share the
anxiety of the "Bewildered Parent" "
who complains Of the child Of two
and half years, who addressed her
learned parents as "Old bean" AS
convinced Montesorian | recognize
in the appellation a gratifying evil
dence of that self-eXpression which
cannot begin too young. Moreover,
there is nothing derogatory in the
phrase; on the contrary | am as
sured on the best authority that it
is term of endearment rather than
reproach. But above all, as a Vege-
tartan, | welcome the choice Of the
term as an indication of the growth
of the revolt against carnivorous
brutality. If the child in question
had called her parent "saucy kip
per" or a "silly old sausage" there
would have been reasonable ground
| for resentment. But comparison
with a bean involves no obloquy,
but rather panegyric. The bean is
one of the noblest vegetables and is
exceptionally rich in calories, pro-
tein, casein, carbo- -hydrates, thymol,
hexamyl, piperazine, salicylic diox-
ide, and permanganate Of popocate-
petl. This, a learned parent, if his
learning was real, ought to have
recognized at once, instead Of fool
ishly exploiting a fancied grievance.

GET TOGETHER"
MEETING SUCCESS

The banquet served by the Wo,
mans Club last Friday night at the
'get together meeting" to the gen
tlemen and ladies assembled appar-
emily possessed some unusual quail
ty of warmth and geniality remind
ing us of the good old days" be-
fore Estancia went dry. The toast
master, often sedate and dignified
like school masters pretend to be-
was as jolly and full of jokes as
the comedian in good vaudeville
show.
Our budding young barrister,
Simmons, came out with story in
the first act entitled "My First I'M
pressions Of Estancia," that caused
us to forget our lack of water
works, good lights and decent streets
as we lived over with him the ad-
ventures Of the old colored gentle
man Monroe on his first trip to the
city.
Guy Hamilton's rersark that ''The
Estancia valley possessed more good
unmarked roads than any other part
Of the state" caused his listeners
TO become serious for q while as
they realized that surely this was g
truth, and for a time the meeting
became interested in q general dis
crssion Of roads ard how to better
them, until Nj. Douglas became i'm
patient and made a motion which
was seconded and carried, that Carl
Sherwood, who had just finished
speaking of "What the Encino road
needs, and Guy Hamilton inspect
the road and report next Friday
night to the executive committee of
the Chamber of Commerce upon the
present condition and what it would
cost to put the road in shape.
Mr.. Fincke offered a toast to
"Estancia, the Oasis" going back
into the history of the valley some
what and picturing the joy Of
freighters as they approached the
Estancia Springs and shade trees,
then coming down to the present
time and developing the idea of
making an ideal camping and water
ing place OF our resources, the
spring and trees.
John Corbin spoke on "Estancia's
Outlook" being SO courteous and
tactful that we could not at first
determine which outlook he person
ally believed in, the good or bad.
The report of the finance com
mittee was encouraging, as they re-
ported $4,000 pledged for the sup
port of the Chamber Of Commerce.
Hill Jameson said he had sixteen
Fords which were at the disposal of
the Chamber of Commerce and that
they were ready to run day or night.
A vote of thanks was offered to
the ladies for the supper they had
served and it was decided to hold
another "get together meeting" in a
month.
Everyone is cordially invited to
these meetings and notices will be
published later as to the exact date
ard place Of entertainment.

Pomerene Objects
By Condo

Concerning the delivery of the proceeds of the Governor Cox note however, Marvyn Scudder, New York accountant testified that during the Hughes Aircraft investigation he had talked with Keller concerning the payment of the note and that Keife1 had told him, q paid the money to Governor Cox. and he put it in bag and took it away with him. This testimoy ywas strenuously objected to by Senator Pomerene.
 After the hearing was concluded Senator Pomerene issued a statement in which he declared that certain witnesses who had been connected with the Hughes Aircraft investiga- tions and others had demonstrated that they were more interested in be- smirching Governor Cox than in as certaining the truth" He also de- clared that the entire investigation here had shed no light of presidential campaign contributions, investigation of which was the primary purpose for which the committee had been ap- pointed.
 Senator Edge issued a statement in which he said:
 "I do not care to discuss the things that have been made clear before the committee. The matter is now up tc the prosecuting attorney. We have clearly established there has been violation of the corrupt practices act of Ohio and irregular proceedings in the Cox campaign of the past, but these are not within our jurisdiction We cannot conduct the prosecutions but steps should be taken immediate ly to act upon the evidences disclosed before the committee"
