There will be 1, ,0S0 more voters at
this years primaries than last year
If all of those privileged to
do so go to the polls Septem-
ber 27. The total number of those
who voted at last years general cleo
tion and those who registered yes
terday is 9,703 as compared to S,623
eligible to vot at the 1920 primaries
an increase of 1880.
All of the wards showed an in
crease in registration and this would
indicate that more interest is being
taken in the primary this year than
was generally expected. The largest
gain in registration was in the sixth
ward where 1882 have qualified to
vote at the primaries. This number
is 444 higher than the number of
voters in that war privileged to cast
ballot at last years primaries.
General Increase.
The increase in the fourth ward is
second high, there being 260 more
registered there this year for the
primaries than last year. In the
third ward there are I'll more reg
istered this year, in the first there
are 1876 more, in the second 46 more
and in the fifth 23 additional.

Last year there were eighteen

number of voters it was necessary to
add two more polling places. Yes

polls were in use. they being the
third poll of the second ward and

There were 312 registered at the for

The various candidates were ac-
tive yesterday afternoon and last
night getting the voters to register
in order that they might vote at the
primaries, the increase being mainly
due to the work of the politicians
who rounded up" the voters in all
parts of the city and saw to it that
they registered.

Those who failed to register yes

election last November will not be

WE SECOND THE MOTION.

The Journal wishes to second the motion of the
trail in the rear on matters affecting the develop
ment of the western states and proceed to put itself
in the front rank of those states in active lead
ershp.
The Herald had special reference to the Western
States Reclamation association meeting at Salt Lake
City on November 29 and 80 It's insstence that the
governor should lead strong delegation to this
meeting meets with the hearty approval of the
Journal.
Recent evidence of the effect of going out after
that to which we are entitled was given in the re-
suits obtained in procuring an agency of the War
Finance Corporation for New Mexico. There is not
a single reason why New Mexico should not be so
potent in the reclamation congress that, when the
time to distribute these projects, in
position insist upon just share of the benefits
Now is the time to begin. If allow the lead
ership to pass from now. how to expect
a place of influence in determining national pro-
gram then?
individuals should not be asked to bear the bur-
den of expense incident to this trip. 1t Is matter
OF vital, statewide concern, and a way should be
found to finance the expenses of strong delegation
1t is high time that New Mexico to be a
backward" state. The mental attitude of its citi-
zenry is all that needs to change in order to alter
our status and make among the most militant

ARE WE LOSING THE HOME?

Much has been said with tongue and pen on the
subject Of home life in America. There are untold
volumes of printed matter setting forth the fact
that today the home Is not doing either for children
or grownups the thing for which 1t was designed
the providing of opportunities for wholesome fam
ily life. And in these volumes there probably may
be found some suggestions how 1T is possible 10
make the modern home yield these opportunities.
But unless we address ourselves actively to the
task of putting into practice our volumnous preach-
ing on this subject shall not advance greatly TO-
ward a solution of the problem.
It would be folly to regard this thing lightly and
to hold that it will remedy itself. No permanently
wholesome life either in the community or for the
nation can be built on a substantial basis unless
home life and home training play great part In
this process. The situation is not to be taken
lightly Nor will it remedy itself in the course OF
time if as this educator maintains, we are going IN
a direction away from it.
The obvious conclusion is that II we cherlsh
ideals that make for desirable manhood and woman
hood and for a more efficient citizenship, we can
not afford to lose sight of the fact that these ideals
are hest maintained in the home. Other institu-
lions may help in this process; but they can only
help they can not supplant the home 1t may be
that the writing Of many books on this subject anu
the delivering of many lectures will help us to real"
ze this: and to that end they serve good purpose
But the real remedy to the waning influence OF the
home lies in a thorough recognition of what we are
losing when home and family life become less I'M
nortant with u.s. and in a resolute determination 10
prevent this at all cost.

A COMMENT ON MAIN STREET
BY ONE WHO HAD JUST
READ TT.

Well, these are my conclusions
and comments: I could sit down
and write a synopsis of that 45J
page book, on two pages of paper
of scratch pad size! The author
goes into interminable tiresome de-
tail. He describes so many need
less things. He creates situations
to enable him to discuss his theor-
les. Speaking of the work itself,
that is, the philosophy of it. l
conclude: That it illustrates the
mistake any man makes by mar
rying a woman so much younger
than himself, because no young
woman ever can love a man mucn
older than herself; she may for
time think she does, but she does
not, she only respects him, per-
haps. She cannot be really happy
with him. She deceives herself
when she thinks she Is. A man is
fool to marry a woman much
younger than himself, because she
simply acquiesces in his Emporium
ing, but does not love him. Her
agreeing "to care a little" for him.

oil Kennicott, at the very best

She was not true either to her hus-
band or her child. Almost from
the date Of her marriage, she was
longing for someone besides her
husband to make love to, and when
she found that Guy Pollock didnt

shorter way out of the difficulty has been found by
a woman phrenologst in England who rejects the
complicated proof in favor of something much
simpler.
She maintains that up to a certain age girls are
brighter than boys because the girls head grows
faster than the boys More particularly is it the
breadth of the head that counts. We are told that
girls are apt to be round headed and boys long
headed. This so-called expert consoles the boys
however, with the information that later on In life
boys heads begin TO widen.
Further investigation may find more convincing
proof for this contention than 1t has now. Or we
may have to do what did in the case of the be-
lief in the weight of the brain-discard it alto
gether Until such time comes, however there Is
one thing which all the owners Of heads will do

For the proper development Of the intellect 1t Is
more important to make good use of ones brains
than to rely for success their weight, or on the
size or shape of the head.

TO BE USED SPARINGLY.

One of the dearest possessions of American citi-
zenship is the right of trial by jury Whether or
not American jury system is effectual as We
think, in preserving rights, the fact yet remains
that every American citizen has the right of con-
fronting jury of his peers when he is accused OF
serious offense, and all Of prize that right as
of our greatest projections.
In New Mexico those charged with a majo:
crime entitled to have grand jury make an
investigation and determine whether there is suf'
fcient probability of guilt to justify putting the de-
fcndant to the humiliation and expense of making
a formal defense.
To men who believe in law and order and in the
orderly processes of the courts the charge that they
are inlawfuy interfering with the orderly pro-
cesses of the court, is humiating defense
against the charge is expensive Yet those charged
with contempt of court for such cause with
out the protection afforded to others through a
grand jury
court find defendant guilty of contempt
without the intervention OF a petit jury. Thus re-
sponsible citizens be branded with a most per-
nicous form Of awessness without being privileged
to submit the evidence to jury of their peers
1t be seen readily, therefore, why all the
authorities agree that the process of contempt shat
be used sparingly and only when guilt is apparent
and the interference with the process of the court
very real. It's harsh, too ready may easily
be arbitrary and may be weapon of malice, or a
means of depressing legitimate criticism or harm
less academic discussion.
contempt citation is criminal proceeding.
1t be used only by the state and solely for the
purpose Of indicating the authority and dignity Of
the state Private malice, private advantage,
must not enter sensitive precinct. 1t is mat
ter for the court alone to determine whether its
dignity and authority have been undermined. In
determining this question he may ask for such help
he chooses. But private parties not use it to
humiliate silence an adversary
Thoughtful men will dissent from the doctrine
that contempt proceeding is to be used to curb
the freedom of the press to prevent the free dis
cusson of questions which are OF public concern.

Surely enough there was plenty
of dried clover in the den, for

However it may be with other countries Ger
many is disarming - because she has to do It,
Among the reports which the Interallied Commits
sion has made of the destruction of German milf
tary materials none is more interesting than that
recently made concerning Heligoland. That mighty
sea fortress of Germany was by the provisions OF
the Versailles treaty to be demolished. 1t was
thought that the work would take seven years, so
elaborate were the Notifications. But after two
years of active demolition the task Is nearly COM
pleted. The allied officers in control were with
drawn on October l. and what is left to be done
will be finished by next April Then there will be
final inspection by the allies.
Admiral Charlton, at the head Of the naval COM
mission, reports that 2,4O0 guns have been de-
sroyed at Heligoand many of them Of the largest
calibre. All the empacements had also to be razed
the docks dismantled and leveled, the submarine
quays obterated, the jetties blown up. The island
will be in the unprotected and unthreatening
state in which 1t when Lord Salisbury traded it
away with Germany. The millions which the Ger
mans spent this base might well have been
thrown into the North So thoroughly has been
the destruction at Heligoand that the naval author
tiles of the allies convinced that it will be i'm
possible ever to build there harbor for warships
Announcement Of the end of this island fortress
comes fittingly the of the Washington con-

act quite differently than the au-

The husband, Doctor Kennicott,
was a mollycoddle; first. for hay

love him; and second, for not hav-
ing wrung the neck of the little
Swede, when he caught them to-
gether out in the bushes beside the
road in the dark that night; and
third, for not having then and
there filed bill for divorce, and
alleged Carols adultery, for every
man who reads the book will be-
lieve, that if she was not guilty
of the act of adultery, she might
as we'll have been.
The doctor was a weak sister
also, in another respect; instead of
opening out on Maud Dyer, in the
way he ought to have done, he
acted sissy, and went to see her
that evening and committed adul-
terry with her. So, both the doctor
and Carol, were poor fish, when
