~ AN eai,asMs n The Jonrnal Thursday. Mr. Maree made public
so.werssr% he Democratic state organization Of New Mexico Nj
Mage supported he demecrsiis stair organization last year and
was IN close and intimate touch with n in It's effort to elect Mr.
Hanna governor. IN the campaign OF 1920. He is undoubtedly in
d position to speak with authority a 10 its inside workings.
Mir Hanna, Chairman seurmsn and others in charge Of the ma
chinery Of the democratic party in New Mexico have always con
tended vehenenaly that all those mysterious alleged forces for evil
asserihed by them and by The Prophet as special interests have
attached themselves exclusively 70 The republican party. That has
been NJ. Hannas contention and his exclusive campaign slogan in
an his unsuccessful efforts TO secure public office.
Now eosaes sbe Prophet Of the Dawn Of the New Day, talking
from inside, frsthant information. and asserts that The democratic
corsention which nominated AIR IIapnn last year AZ Las Vegas and
The orsanixa,ion which conducted his campaign were dominated
alike by IAN unsatisfactory special interest domination.
This is n revealing statement M
- will he recalled tina, Mr.. Magee supported that organization
and is candidate, Mr. Hanna, with al the vehemence of his inner
mos soul, snd asserted repeatedly 10 the people, TO whom he never
lis, that Hanna and his hackers were the perscnifeation of purity
I'll will be recalled that the representation at the Las Vegas con

sThe Journal, said the Prophet yesterday, sis dependent upon
the people. it has no source Of revenue except those coming in over
the counter in the course Of legitimate business"
OF course there is no intimation that the proceeds from the
Prophet $ bond sales were received in other than the course OF legit-
mate business. Ii is impossible, however, not 10 wonder whether
the heads Of the democratic organization, in their efforts 10 help the
Prophet sell his bonds. were dominated by an overwhelming urge Il
help the Prophet serve the people, or TO keep the Prophet worksae
for those special interests which he asserts dominated the democratic
organization while he was working for 4 last year.
From some Of the expressions heard at the democratic conven-
ton and since. il might be gathered that since the sudden sundering
Of he bonds that hound them the democratic managers didn't know
which they were doing, and dont know yet either what they did by
aheorbing these bonds, or just what happened TO the absorbers
Ia the meantime she public has no cause for complaint The
bursting OF the bonds which hound Magee 70 The democratic leaders
Of the state. and whfcb, it is possible still bind the said leaders u
the Prophet in a sense, has served to make public the real facts as u
the unsatisfactory specialInterest domination in control OF the
democratic organization; because the Prophet is n a position to speaf
with absolute and final authority, and he has certainly spoken.
In view Of this domination, which he now asserts, we wish once
more 70 congratulate the Prophet on the discretion and good Judg
ment which caused him TO dump these unworthy associates and enc
mics Of the people. the speciaiinterest dominated Hanna, Seligman
Pnsney. etc, and support the cause of Senator Bursum, who thu
Prophet knows is going 10 be elected, and who everybody knows Il
moi now and has never been dominated BY anything but an unde
WAITING purpose TO serve the best interests of New Mexico and IL
people.
