The appointment of Col. r. f.
Twitchell Of Santa Fe as chairman
for New Mexico of the finance de-
partment of the republican national
committee insures the dissemina-
ton of brand of republican en-
thusiasm which is guaranty of sue
cess in the work laid out for the
colonel. No man in the state would
meet with less antagonism or pos
sess the confidence of all citizens
TO q greater degree. Colonel
Twitchell Is essentially an organ
izer and is thoroughly conversant
with the need which is at this time
paramount in this state--as in all
others in the nation--the return of
the republican party to full con-
troll of the business policies of the
country.

No Water For vaughn.

Vaughn News: At a meeting

water proposition and the contract
offered by the Santa Fe for haul

discussed from every standpoint
and when put to a vote the prop
osition was turned down unani-
mously.
1t is to be regretted the city is
still to be without water, but to
pay $1.53 per thousand gallons de-

tax and cost of water) and u 60

cided to be prohibtive,
The city, however, will continue
its efforts to secure water, and it is
hoped that a bond issue can be
floated the next time large enough
to care for our wants.

ION THE ROAD TO SANTA FEE"

Colonel Sellers of Albuquerque
was not the author of the famous
poem on ION the Road to Mande-
lay" even If he is recognized as a
writer on transcontinental high
WAYS and can steer tourists right
every time, He has some very
definite ideas of the way to travel
ION the Road to Santa Fee" and
though not putting them into verse,
is issuing printed information to
fellow party men concerning the
capitol course.
Colonel Sellers seems to fear that
there may be engine and tire. trou-
BILE: that bad spots should be paved
and plenty of gas provided for the
race on the official course to the
house on the hill.
In the absence of the desired
$4,000, the committee meeting in
Albuquerque was going to pluck
from the sky to endow party
publication, Colonel Sellers sug-
gests that a 1.-THE be paid in six
monthly instruments by individual
subscribers, commencing on the
day that boys will place empty
purse. with strings attached, and
wrapped bricks, on streets for I'M
suspicious April forgetters.
With the fifteen thousand in safe
hands then Sellers would have the
best editor and publicity man In
the market selected by persons who
pay the freight: an office force
would be engaged, and the ball
would commence to rolf. All the
cash not consumed in publicity
headquarters would be allotted to
recognized democratic newspapers,
in proportion to their bona fide
circulation, and they would be
given editorial copy. ...
The copy and the cash would un-
doubtedly be as welcome as peach
es at Christmas time. to some of
the recipients. but there might be
need of a Cancellation committee
to apportion the peaches.
Raising the money, according to
the business acumen of the planner,
contemplates asking one set of men
TO pass in $50 per month, another
$25, and a third $40, or even SIS,
but dollar democracy is not in on
the scheme.
just how to classify individuals
in advance is not stated. But may
be Colonel Sellers, who said once
that about 5000 of New Mexico's
automobile owners are democrats,
probably has his eye on the men
at the wheels Of big glistening cars
as fifty" Victims the drivers of
used cars as "twenty-fivers," and
flivver farmers as men who should
each produce "V."
But these are days when the
whole world is clamoring for de-
mocracy, and 1t might be more
democratic for the financier to SIM
ply call each of his fifteen thou
sand fellow automen to turn in
Just one dollar. Thus there might
be less danger, which colonel Sell
lers says would exist with a news
paper, that few might control
the policy for their own private
snaps.

Town Worries About Bonds.

Alamogordo Cloudcrofter: 1t is
generally understood that there is
sentiment among certain citizens
faVoring dropping the interest or
the bonds covering the town water
and light systems and letting this
property go back to the improve
ment company.
In the event of failure to meet
the interest on the bonds the mat
ter would be taken up in court and
q receiver appointed, Who would
draw a large salary and would have
little interest in the town The
citizens would have, in addition to
the present taxes, to pay the cost
of maintaining this receiver. TT
was the sentiment of all who spoke
that the best plan to keep up the
payments and await developments
in the oil situation.
DR.. Mckinley stated that the
town had been fortunate enough at
this time to secure several thousand
feet of wood pipe from Camp cody.
This was unused pipe and was pur-
chased at AS cents per foot, while
the market quotation would run
over one dollar per foot at the
present time.
