could expect no relief.
Following Mr.. LuceEO's talk
the Hon. M. L. Fox, was called
on to make a few remarks but
declined to do SO and gave his
time to the next speaker, the
Hon. R. H. Hanna. Mr.. Fox
was for a number of years edi-
torof the Morning Journal and
while editor had the pleasure of
undergoing a long prosecuted
libel suit similar to the one ex-
perienced by ex-editor Ogden.
The Hon. Judge Hanna was
then introduced by the chairman
and for nearly an hour held the
deepest interest of the large
crowd and his numerous remarks
were cheered often by the lis
teners. His first remarks were
on the League Of Nations and
especially the much talked of
Article Ten. After spending a
few minutes on this noted docu-
|ment the audience was practic-
ally convinced it was not so bad
Ia document as some people said
Iitwas. He then went after the
present form Of taxation and
especially the mining assessment.
He mentioned in particular one
large mining company that was
worth practically the same as the
Santa Fe Railroad is assessed in
New Mexico, yet the Santa Fe
Railroad paid ten times the
amount Of taxes that the mining
company did IN New Mexico.
Judge Hanna promised if
elected Governor that he would
remedy this tax evil If given a
Royaccratie State Legislature to
|sappOrt himin his, tax reforms
and tC'sse that the needed legis-
lation was passed.
The Judges talk was full of
interest thruout and highly
appreciated by the audience.
The party left Wednesday
morning for Colmor where they
made addresses Wednesday
morning and at Wagon Mound
Wednesday afternoon.

Reception Given
By Messers Gibbs
and Shaya Quite
a Success
a SUCCESS

One Of the most delightful social
affairs that the village. has seen for
many day was the neeeptiOn and
ball given by DR.. NJ. D, Gibbs and
Mr.. R. P. Shaya to theiFsmany friends
and patrons.
The reception wasi held in the new
quarters Of the FaiaSiew Pharmacy.
located in the Foster Block. Dancing
was the order Of the evening, and was
quite generally inaRlged in by all. In
fact, one was reminded Of the social
dances for which, Roy was we'll known
not so many years ago. Not that the
younger social set Of the present are
unsuccessful In making the town pop
ular socially, but as the town grows
we seem to outgrow some Of customs
that prevailed when the village and
the community were new, However,
it is quite enjoyable to gather again
for an evening, making new acquaint-
ances and renewing the old
doc" Gibbs is so we'll known to all
that any Introduction would be super
fluOus. Ever since the days Of the
first Fairview Pharmacy in the stone
building down on the corner, "Doc's"
drug store has been the gathering
place Of the youngsters and the elders
both for treats and treatment. They
have followed him from one new To-
cation to another and it is only safe
to predict that the new location will
be az popular as were the others and
that his patronage will continue to in
crease, .ess2 l1AAAE
Mr., shaya, although he has been
visiting Roy for the past several years
in the interests Of his insurance, has
but recently become one Of our local
business men. He has within the past
two months purchased the mercantile
business Of Lujan and Sons and is re-
modelling and cleaning up the stock
with a view to making his dOwn-tO-
the-minute store. He is, also, Super
intendent Of Agents for the Mutual
Life Insurance company Of New York
having worked up to that position
from a small local agent; and will be,
we feel certain, a progressive bust
ness man and citizen.
Refreshments were served at ten.
lee cream, cakes and coffee made up
the lunch, while iced lemonade was on
tap all Of the evening. After the
eats dancing was resumed and con-
tinued until the midnight hour, when
the strains of Home, Sweet Home"
brought the time to mind and all de-
parted unanimous in the opinion that
doc" and Shaya are the best of
hosts.

THE FARMERS ELEVATOR

The new elevator Of the Mesa Co.
Operative Company or as it is better
known the farmers Elevator" is
nearing completion, and will probably
be running in time to handle a part
Of this years wheat crop.
Even if it should not, it is step in
the right direction as it points to the
progressiveness, as a class, Of the
farmers Of the Mesa. More than that
it points to the fact that Roy is be-
coming the wheat market and center
Of the wheat belt Of New Mexico. The
government reports show that Nora
county leads the state in wheat pro-
duction and this, of course, is prac-
tically all grown east Of the river.
Developments of the next few years
can hardly be gauged by the develop
ments Of the past, and in order that
these developments may be enjoyed
to the fullest extent by all, certain
amount of cooperation is necessary
not only among the producers but be-
tween the producers and the local
merchants.
Until such time as the elevator is
completed the company is using the
shovel system, buying and shoveline
the wheat into cars from the wagons

LARGE CROWDS ATTEND
DEMOCRATIC SPEAKING
AT ROY AND MILLS
SPEAKERS GIvENDEEP
ATTENTION ny AUDIENCES
SPEAKERS GIVEN DEEP
ATTENTION BY AUDIENCES

AS previously announced in
the Spanish-American, Judge
r. H. Hanna, Democratic
nominee for Governor, Antonio
Lucero, nominee for Congress,
r. L. Putney and M. L. Fox
arrived in Mills at 2:3O Tuesday
afternoon and delivered address
es to a large crowd at that place.
The remarks by the several
speakers were listened to with
much interest.
At 7;30 in the evening the
speakers came to Roy and again
spoke to a crowded house at the
Roy Theatre. State Committee
man Ogden acted as chairman
and introduced the several
candidates.
Mr.. Putney was the first
speaker and told of the two
state Conventions held a few
weeks ago. He spoke of the
harmony prevailing at the Demo-
cratic Convention and then Of
how the Republican Convention
was ruled by a few bosses and
who had the naming of practical
ly the whole state ticket.
Mr.. Putney spoke for 45
minutes and his remarks which
were full Of wit were well re-
ceived by the audience.
The second speaker was the
Hon. Antonio Lucero, ex.secra.
tary Of State and nominee for
Congress. Mr.. Lucero is well
known in Roy and is considered
one of the strongest speakers in
the state. He spoke both Eng
lish and Spanish and synnpath-
lied with us in our long wait fol
a new county and said our only
hope lay in eIccting a Demo-
cratic Legislature and that the
chances of electing this legis-
lature were excellent. He spoke
extensively on the manner of
taxation in New Mexico and
showed the unfairness of the
present manner of taxation of
certain corporations in the state
and stated that as long as Boss
ism runs our legislatures we

MILLS TO HAVE cHAUTAUoUA

Dates Chosen, October 1, 2, 4, s, 6
The boosters Of Mills have been
very fortunate in securing the Eli
son-White Chautauqua for October

given in a large tent erected by the
Chautauqua committee. The first
night will start off with the Regniers

ment Ward Waters, himself, is one
Of the best makeup artists and inn
personato1a on the platform today.
On the fourth night, Carlton Gambler
laine Of New York, famous editor,

a splendid company. This well-known
singer is easily one Of the foremost
tenOrs Of America today.
Season tickets are being sold by the

a boost, it will be well worth your
while to attend this series of enter
tainments.
