STATE PRIDE.

I heard a stranger Boosting of the gories of
his state,
He held that California is the greatest of the
great
The chap who sat besides him lived somewhere
in Illinois
And he boosted of her riches and her comforts
and her joys;
But while j listened to them make their native
splendors known,
, Td~have sworn that they were talking of the
state call my own
Nebraska or Dakota, Florida or Tennessee,
Or Washington or observation-disclosures you
may be
You'll find the land is peopled with devoted
hearts and true
Who love the state they live in and the old
Red, White and Blue,
And you'n find the distant stranger in proud,
exutant tone
Boasts about the state he lives in you boast
about your own.
There are charms this country over, there are
joys in every state
Here forty-eight divisions and each one of
them is great
And like the eyes that sparkle and the touch
of honest pride
And the fervoa of the people wheresoever they
abide,
Who rejoice in their possessions--for by such
love is shown
That each of is faithful to the home he calls
his own.
In Michigan or Kansas in Idaho Maine,
The hearts OF men are beating to the self-same
loyal strain;
The love of all that's lovely sets the eyes of all
aglow
And the old flag laughs to hear us as it looks
on us below
For it proves we are united as of home we
proudly bragg
One great lcpuntry-lovng people underneath the
Starry Flag.

12-YEAR-0LD RUSSIAN
GIRL REFUGEE HELD
AT ELLIS ISLAND

New York, Nov. 26.-WithOut
a country, as result of an or
der by immigration authorities re-
fusing her admittance to the Uni
ted States, Evodokia Gorelkina,
12-year-old Russian refugee, has
been held at Ellis Island awaiting
the next of life's buffets.
When bolshevist troops threat
ened Tomsk, where Evodokia lived
with aristocratic parents, she fled
with American Red Cross work
ers to Vladivostok and, with 700
other refugee children, travelled
aboard the Steamship Yomei
Maru nearly around the world.
The arrival of the Red Cross
refugee ship at a Finnish port,
where the children and their par
ents were TO be reunited, found
Tomsk still in bolshevist hands,
and Evodokia was unable 70
find her parents, So she was
taken in charge by the Red Cross
workers and brought back to the
United States. A special board of
inquiry refused to admit the child
because she was unaccompanied
by either parent and likely to be-
come a public charge.
An appeal from this decision
is being made by Red Cross work.
ers to the authorities at Wash
ington. f@
Meanwhile Evodokia looks
across the bay at busy New York
and yearns for something besides
ships and the sea.

AN INDIGNANT COMMONWEALTH.

The storm of disapproval that many of us
pected would follow the governors action in par
doning the sixteen Vstas serving sentences in
the state penentiary in connection with the CO.
lumbus raid, has broken.
The American Legion, the Kiwanis club and
the Contractors association are organizations in
Albuquerque which already have registered vigor-
GUS protest against the issuance of the pardon
The American Legion characterizes it IAN out
upon the public right" calling for "the utmost
apprehension by tal law-abidng citizens" the XII
wants club indorses the action of the local post
of ex-service men, declares the action of the gov
ernor was one that calls for criticism and con-
demnation," and favors remedial constitutional
amendment creating board of pardons to prevent
forever any recurrence of abuse in pardoning
power" The Contractors association supports the
attitude of the Legion and the Kiwanians
In word, representatives and citizens of New
Mexico, regardless of politics, have joined in an
unequivocal censure of this unfortunate official
Valedctory of the outgoing governor.
Some have gone far to question Mr.. Lar
razolos motives. The resolution of the American
Legion, for instance, declares:
THE act suggests if it does not justify the
conclusion, that the governor had more in
mind his personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT than an act
of justice to undergoing wrongful and un-
just punishment; that being about to visit the
republic of Mexico the guest of the presi-
dent-elect, the governor completely forgot his
duty to the people of the state who have so
signally honored him and also forgot that
mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent"
AS far as the journal is concerned, however, it
is not necessary to probe the gubernatorial con-
science in the matter The act itself is sufficiently
deplorabe. We cannot know the workings of Mr..
Larrazolo's mind but do know what he has
done. +
The eyes of the country are upon New Mexico
today. The Associated Press has carried several
extensive dispatches relating to the pardons. The

THE SPECIAL REVENUE COMMISSION.

The Special Revenue Commission, popularity
known as the Hagerman Tax Commission, has
filed its tentative report with the governor A
typewriter copy is in the hands of the journal.
This report nearly $50 typewriter pages
apd would require ten pages of the Journal for
its publication in full. This is impracicable of
The public would not take the time to
read it were we to go to the expense of publish
ing it.

prepared digest of this report in shape for pub

of painsaking work to accomplish this stupendous
task.
We wish to give only a first impression

detailed study of it may alter such impressions.
The reader is struck with the judicial attitude
in which the commission has approached the whole
subject. There is total absence of either rancor
fear. They appear TO neither "be after any
body seeking to protect anyone. At times
wishes they had actually said what is written
only between the lines
This report has required months of study with
expert help of every kind. The majority of the
commission is republican, politically yet none
could guess the political complexion of it's menu
bers from their report. The creation of this body
a republican policy and that party deserves
credit for its work and should lend the commits
sion it's support.
The commission was not satisfied with mere
statement of its conclusions. 1t gives the BEN
eft of its reasoning in reaching those conclusions
They declare for an ad vaorem assessment of
mines by experts; for a complete budget system
and for partisan board for the land office
They crticise with frankness the management of
public lands.
Many other things discussed and recon-
mendations made in the interests of economy and
efficiency.
This report will prove a great stimulant to
the thought of all who are interested in public
matters.
We have great confidence in the integrity of
purpose Of the commission. We feel that the pub
lie should approach the subject with assurance
that the results represent the sincere opinion of
these gentlemen after most exhaustive investga-
ton.

ed the command of the English
language well; he can aiso express
himself very well in the Spanish.
| understand he is very good
lawyer, and that he has been a sue
cessful lawyer. AS a politician, Mr..
Larrazolo can put up a nice line
of talk, but how sincere he is,
when he so talked, no ono but him
self can tell. You know that in
such cases, as when a person says
one thing but follows a line of con-
duct entirely at variance Herewith,
one must Judge of the real senti-
ments of the man by what is tangi-
bic and concrete; that is, by his
actions.
No one who knows Senior LARA
colo can deny that, as a politician,
as stated above, he is very compe-
tent; but the question arises. is he
competent and a proper person to
be governor of New Mexico? Not
dealing with Mr.. Larrazolo's per-
sonality, nor his capabilities to fill
the executive office of the state,
from my point of view one feature,
In this connection, is Objectionable
to Senior LarraZolo occupying
public office in New Mexico, and 1t
is this: l understand he was born
in Mexico, claims that republic as
his native country, and came here
when a boy, and has since become
a citizen of the United States. AS
such no one can deny him the legal
right TO participate in politics, but
is he the proper person, in view of
conditions in Mexico, to occupy the
governors chair of New Mexico?
Since Mr.. Larrazolo has been
governor, l have noticed that dur
ing his visits to Ell Paso, Texas, and
Juarez, Mexico, the Mexican papers
refer to him as the "son of Next
CO." etc. Mr.. Larrazolo does not
resent such comments. Going on
the hypothesis that Senior LARA
zolo is a son of Mexico" and the
people of New Mexico select him
to occupy high official position
therein, does not this open the
doors to Pancho Villa, Jose Inez
Salazar, Emiliano Zapata or any
other citizen of Mexico, who are
"honored" as 'sons of Mexico" to
come to this country, become
citizen of the United States and oc-
cupy the office of governor of New
Mexico?
Now, | have been told that Senior
Larrazolo has secured the support
of a large number of Spanish
Americans on the ground that he Is
one of them. If such Is the case
Mr.. Larrazolo has misrepresente
matters, as he cannot truthfully
count himself with the real Span
ish- Americans, descendants of the
first Spaniards that came from
Spain to occupy and settle up New
Mexico.
Thanking you for giving the peo-
pie the opportunity of expressing
their views on subjects, pro and
con, and wishing the Morning Jour-
nal the best of good luck, l remain,
Most kindly,

issue is not merely that concerns the state;
the entire nation has an interest in the affair
The interest is this: Shall the sixteen men
who have been given their day in American
court in connection with of the coolest booded
massacres in recent border history be allowed to
go scot-free by the stroke of Governor Larrazolo's
pen? Did the United States soldiers who gave up
their lives in the pursuit of these men, die in
vain? Was the battle of Carrizal mere wanton
waste of American blood?
All that the people Of this state demand is
justice. If there is any doubt about the guilt of
these men, why has it not been brought up before
this? If there is no doubt about their guilt, why
should they be pardoned? Fifteen of them con-
fessed in open court. and the other was convicted
by jury The fifteen men who confessed were
represented by counsel; and dares say
the jury that convicted the sixteenth man was
corrupt imbecile.
We earnestly hope that every legal effort will
be made to keep these where they are.
If there is no law covering the case, the rem
edal legislation suggested by the Legion and the
klwanis club should be written the books, so
that similar humiliating situation again
embarrass New Mexico in the eyes of the rest of
the nation.
