day than they had last week or last month.

to Judge Hanna last year, where might have free

In deciding to support Senator Bursum the ex-
press condition laid down that could not be
silenced upon such subjects as we deemed it wise to
discuss.
The Journal fought for weeks to procure an at
titude by Senator Bursum and the republican party
which would admit of the Journals support without
a surrender of It's policy We feel that such result
was procured. Certainly freedom Of action is
not curtailed. We merely believe Bursum's success
to be best for the state If thought otherwise.

BRADsTREET's REVIEW.

New York. Aug. 19-Bradstreet's
tomorrow will say:
The moderate gain noted last
week in wholesale and tobbing
trade in wearing apparel lines for
fall has been fully sustained, and
there seemed to be a further ac-
centuation of the optimistic feel
irg. In some lines. notably silk
goods, shoes, canned goods, raw
wool and iron and steel, the move
ment has progressed beyond the
point Of mele feeling and has
found expression in larger sales at
higher prices, notable in this re-
spect being pig iron and scrap ma
terial and canned and dried foods.
In no case has the expansion as
sumed big proportions. and there
is no evidence of any reduction in
the caution with which purchases
are being made. In fact the
phrase immediate needs is more
frequently met with than any
other words descriptive of the
volume of buying. However, the
advance Of the season. the rather
better tone of crop advices, the
fear or the absolute knowledge of
small stocks held in distributors
hands. and the loosening up of
credit consequent upon the less
tense condition of the money mar
ket all make for rather more
confident tone in purchasing.

MORE ANSWERED LETTERS.

Bride-to-Be: "Please tell me II
Chinese rugs are appropriate for
the living room; also about drapes
and furniture"
Answer: Chinese rugs are highly
appropriate, but they require rath-
2er costly surroundings. For in
stance, with them you should have
velour door hangings, ''over-
stuffed" davenport and two chairs
in a good blue tapestry; brown
mahogany table and odd pieces:
blue silk valances at the windows
over buff net curtains, and a silk
shade for your lamp.
Bride-Elect: what method of
washing clothes brings the best
result? How long shall boil the
clothes and what soap shall I use?
Also, how Is table for two set?
How shall take out small brown
spots on clothes that were forgot
ten after being sprinkled and
rolled up preparatory for IRON
ing?"
Answer: most strongly advise
you to buy washing machine.
Some dealers will sell these on the
installment plan, IL the customer
can not pay for one down. With a
washing machine you will not have
to boil your clothes at all; simply
soak the soiled clothes overnight
with a good soap-powder, and in
the morning turn them into the
cylinder of the washing machine
with cut-up pieces of yellow laun-
dry soap and very hot water. and
let it rock for 20 minutes, then
take the clothes out, rinse them in
your washtubs, blue them, and
starch those that require starch
ing. Hang on line and iron with
an electric iron. If you haven't
electricity In your home, hand
operated washing machine will
serve excellently; the clothes need
not be boiled with this type Of
machine, either. It is the merci-
less labor of boiling clothes and
scrubbing them by hand that
makes washing SO hard.

provide four strips wide enough
for four plates with necessary sill

are placed on the right side, and

The brown spots are mildew, a
kind of mold. And the cure for
any mold is sunlight. Cover the
spots with lemon Juice and let the

NAN GIVES MRS. STOWELL
WANTED INFORMATION.
CHAPTER 65.

-
While waiting for Dick to come
home I recalled what Mrs. Stowell
had said about telling her what Mr..
Burns told Dick about the markets.
I puzzled over it, then concluded
that she wanted a little extra mon
ey for something that she didn't
wish Mr.. Stowell to know about--a
very natural deduction on my part
considering the way had managed
Dick.

what Mildred Stowell had said.
would get Dick to tell me what he
was doing-in fact, I knew pretty
we'll because the combinations
came to the house-most of them.
Dick had opened an account in
another office, a Joint account with
another man, and l knew nothing
of what they did, save as Dick
wanted to tell me. The other man
had all the papers.
"Tn have the violets to wear to-
night" I said gleefully.
"You are pretty enough without
them" Dick said. kissing me. "But
if you like them I am glad ne
brought them to you. hope you
didn't forget to remind him he
was coming in some evening to play
cards, He has been mighty nice to
me-"
'Did he tell you anything to-
day."
"No-I shall just keep what we
have for a while longer"
The next day Mildred came to
take Junior and me for ride. She
brought Junior a toy. as she al
most always did, and me a dainty
embroidered handkerchief.
"You have seen Mr.. Burns?" she
asked.
Eyes, he called yesterday. He
brought me these violets." I had
taken great care of them after |
got home the night before, and
they looked almost as fresh as
when he gave them to me. Wasn't
1t nice of him?"
"Very!' Then, 'Did he talk
business to you at all?"
"No-we just talked nonsense"
"Has he told Dick what to do
lately?" She seemed to take 1t for
granted I would answer her ques-
tions, and made me feel in some
strange way that l must.

Toy ducks, horses and pigs or

NOT MACHINE-MADE.

The journal is hostile to the caucus system 1T
exists in New Mexico. We believe that many If not
most of our political evils have their beginning in
the CAUCUS. Their decisions generally are not fair
expressions of the peoples wishes.
With this said, compelled in fairness to
add that the republican convention at Santa Fe had
a unanimity and an enthusiasm which could not
have been manufactured by political machine un-
der the conditions. Senator Bursum was in WASH
ington and stayed there until two days before the
convention. He placed his reliance on the approval
sof the people of his in attending to business
instead of in manipulating delegates. George Craig
chairman, was busy in court most OF the time. We
= are convinced that money whatever was used to
bring about the selection Of Bursum delegates. The
matter was allowed to take its course.
~ Out of this situation unanimous nominal
tion for Bursum Those who attribute this solely to
the smooth working of a well-oed political machine
are blinded to the facts, it seems to US Bursum was
doubtless the choice of overwhelming majority OF
the republicans of the state There be no reason
x able dispute over that fact.
Let it be remembered that another political ma
: chine which once ruthlessly rode over New Mexico,
: was in action against Bursum doing what it could to
stop him. This thing run over in the road at
Santa Fe by the Bursum sentiment. When passengers
got out and looked at It, it was found to havea dozen
y rattles. Pretty old, and badly dilapidated!
We shall try honestly and fairly from time to
time to analyze the elements Of Bursum's strength.
sr The Journal Will not attempt 10 deIenu MS recoTu
further than that 1t is not misrepresened We
will assume the senator's willingness to stand on
that record
We will try to trace. from occasion to occasion,
the evolution of public sentiment in New Mexico.
We will show how Bursum has grown with the years
and evolved along with the public sentiment.
The Journal will attellpt to idolize or idealize
Mr.. Bursum. He is man. with the shortcomings Of
h men. But Bursum has immense capacity for work
and magnifciently balanced intellect. We sincerely
believe that he has absorbed the spirit of service
until it will be his basic actuating impulse in the
senate. His eye is on helping New Mexico, SO long
neglected That helping New Mexico will help him
Z is the legitimate reward for service.
We frankly confess that there pros and cons
in this matter and that may differ, with per-
afect honesty Senator Bursum. The Weighing Of
these pros and cons has gone for months with the
Journal The net result obtained by us is overwhem
ingy with the pros. In front page editorial tomor-
will try to detail to the public the reasons
for decision to enthusiastically and whole
heartedly support Senator Bursum for election.

there sounded a loud:

Above gray Gotham town,
A little foolish fiddler-man,
In faded green and brown.
And many a wistful star looked In,
AS in the shade and sheen,
He played such tunes as April plays
To make the meadows green.
"Ah, little foolish fiddler-man,
And have you then no homer"

For in her quest l roam.

And call the bitter sweet.
