CAPTAINS COURAGEOUS.

In closing an editorial the other day, in which we
insisted upon the necessity of carrying out the 1udg-
ment of the court in the Bancett case, we said we
trusted that the Governor might have the ''forutude'
to do his duty.
We used the word 'fortitude" advisedy' In our
minds eve we pictured the ordeal which came %
pass. An elderly mother, who saw in the man await
ing execution only the babe she had pressed to her
breast appealing to every instinct in the man and
father rather than the official, exclaimed
my God, Governor, must my boy die?"
Must her boy die? Yes. that the majesty of the
law may be indicated her boy must die, The law
did not bring this terrible grief upon her The Gov
should have protected mother from grief the boy
who should have indicated her years of anxiety and
thought by following her counsel and advice, is the
one who is whipping the quVering heart OF thai
mother.
But what an ordeal for the Governor! Naturally
.ender-hearted and sympathetic the appeal must
have called upon all the forttude of his soul to re-
sist That he wthstood it and could keep his eye
upon his oath of office is worthy of all commenda-
ton,
Conscious of an official duty to he done the Gov
ernor with tears streaming down his face, pressed
the electric button summoning his lady secretary
and with the words. Take of this woman.
"God help YOU mother" went weeping from his
office TO fight the battle with his emotions.
We honor the tears of the Governor, They were
worthy of n real man. We honor still more the
courage which could conquer those emotions and so
convert them from weakness into strength
To follow the promptings of the head when the
heart cries NO" is not easy task.

PRIDE GOETH BEFORE A FALL.

The Santa F6 New Mexican and the state supreme
court seem to be having renewal of an old contfo-
>ersy.
few days ago this friendly organ suggested to
us that we were trying to run the Governor mere'V
because of our gentle protests against an official act
of which we disapproved
Would il not be we'll TO take the beam cut Oh
their own eye before trying to take the mote out
of ours? ,
The Irishman said of the bull which tried to putt
the locomotive off the track, Il admire his courage
but darn his discretion our friends should co8iae
over this ancient philosophy.
To an onlooker this controversy is merely HueS'
tion of whether the supreme court or the New Mex
lean must suffer humiliation. Whether or not the
New Mexican feels Inundated is Of no pubic conse-
ouence. That the supreme court as our hlshe''
judicial body can possibly permit our judicial sys-
ten, 10 be Inundated is unbelievable. Too much eIsc
Is Mt stake to permit of such situation

perience of bending the knee will be for the soul )

ECONOMICAL CAMPAIGNING

Sentiment is setting strongly this year against
the needless expenditure of money in politics Any
thing that can be done to cut down costs will win
public favor One of the large expenses is hiring
speakers with automobiles and drivers TO travel
all over the country and address crowds at every
cross road and city neighborhood.
Politicians and public ought to have patri-
otto enthusiasm that they would go out and
stump without pay except for necessary expenses.
Automobiles and drivers should be contributed by
of the several parties.
Politicians ought not feel that there is "a
great reservoir of campaign money that can be
tapped without limit yet them give their services,
as public spirited citizens. The newspapers are
glad to report meetings where there is political
particularly if candidates supply copies
of their speeches.

Pound cake" Here is the recipe
for this rich old cake:
Old-Time Pound Cake.-I pound
butter, pound sugar, pound
flour, II eggs. Mix the butter and
sugar together. Add the gg-yolkS
well beaten, then the whites, and
lastly the flour. Bake in q loaf
cake tin.
As will be noted, great-grand-
mother did not spare her eggs!
Nor must those who make the re-
freshments for this entertainment,
if they would really initiate the
culinary offerings of their ances-
tors-but they should charge ac-
cordingly one piece of pound
cake, considering the egg it CON
tains, should bring a most gener-
Gus figure. A small sign stuck in
an uncut pound cake, on the cake
table, stating the number of eggs
the cake contained would cause
quite a little merriment-and bring
monetary results.
In great grandmother's day fruit
punches were extremely popular.
and | would suggest selling some
kind of fruit punch along with the
Frozen Custard and Pound, Cake.
Home made taffy and peppermints
would also be appropriate articles
of food to offer for sale.
To my mind, these few things
which have mentioned are
enough to offer. II there is IN
abundance Of these few things
and the price put upon one portion
of each is high tand for such
good cause as church improve
ments, the price for refreshments
is legitimately high-people expect
to be generous in such a cause) the
proceeds should be satisfactory.

troubles that go with it. The republican platform
points clearly to the for high prices being

gross expansion of currency and credit, also to

our people and to the several states
whose geographical situation or in
ternal conditions make this policy
and the enforcement of the laws.
enacted pursuant thereto, of par
ticular concern, we pledge our
support.
The Postal Service.
The efficiency of the postoffice
department has been vindicated
against malicious and de-
signing assault by the effic-
iency of its operation. It's rec
ord refutes its assailants. Their
voices are silenced and their
charges have collapsed,
We commend the work of the
joint commission on the reclassi-
fication of salaries of postal en-
ployes, recently concluded. which
commission was created by DEM
ocratic administration. The dem
ocratic party has always favored
and will continue to favor the fair
and just treatment of all govern
ment employees.
Free Speech and Press.
We resent the unfounded re-
proaches directed against the dem
ocratic administration for alleged
Interference with the freedom of
the press and freedom of speech.
No utterance from any quarter
should be assailed and no publica-
ton has been suppressed which has
not been animated by reasonable
purpose, and directed against the
nations peace, order and security
in time of war.
We affirm our respect for free
speech and free press, but assert
as an indisputable proposition that
they afford no liberation of enemy
propaganda and the advocacy OF
the overthrow of the government
of the state or nation by force or
violence. ...
Republican Corruption.
The shocking disclosure of the
lavish use of money by aspirants
for the republican nomination for
the highest office in the gift - the
people has created a painful i'm
preston throughout the county.
Viewed in connection with the re
cent conviction of republican
state official from the state of
Michigan for the criminal trans
gression of the law limiting eX-
penses on behalf of a candidate for
the United States senate, it indi-
Gates the re-entry, under republican
auspices, of money as an Influential
factor in elections, thus nullifying
the letter and Haunting the spirit
of numerous laws, enacted by the
people, to protect the ballot from
the contamination of corrupt prac-
tees. We deplore those Delinquent
cies and invoke their stern popular
rebuke, pledging our earnest eff
forts to a strengthening of the pres
ent statutes against corrupt prac-
tees and their rigorous enforce
mcnt.
We remind the people that 1t was
only by the return of republican
senator in Michigan, who is now
under conviction and sentence for
the criminal misuse Of money in his
election, that the present organiza-
ton of the senate with a republican
majority was made possible.
Believing that we have kept the
democratic faith, and resting our
claims to the confidence of the peo-
pie not upon grandiose promises.
but upon the solid performances of
our party, we submit our record to
the nations consideration and ask
that the pledges Of this platform be
appraised in the light Of that rec
ord.
