SENATE FIGHT
IN new MEXICO
NATIONAL TEST
Democrats Expect Vote
Sept. 20 to Repudiate G.
O. P. Administration.

New Mexico's Senatorial election
September 20. Is being exploited by
the Democratic party as the first
real test of popular. reaction to six
months Of Republican rule.
Its result win exercise an i'm
portant influence on the decisions of
the Democratic National Committee
to meet here the middle of october
TO draft definite plans for the next
Congressional campaign. Three ma
tional issues have been injected into
the New Mexico campaign by the
Democrats-theE Esch-Cummins rail-
road bill, the Newberry election
case and the alleged reacttonary
control of Congress under Republi-
can leadership.
Senator H. o. Bursum appointed
to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation, of former Senator Fall,
when he accepted a Cabinet port
folo, is the Republican nominee.
Richard H. Hanna, prominent law
yer, for seven years on the State
Iupreme court and former chief JUS
tice of that bench, is the Demo-
STatlc nominee.
Third Candidate Mexican.
The waters have been muddsd
somewhat and, for that reason the
full significance of the result
somewhat impaired, SO far as the
Democrats are concerned. by the
presence of a third candidate in the
person of Appolonio Sena. a Mex
lean, nominated as an Independent
Republican candidate. There is a
heavy Mexican population in the
State and 70 per cent of this is Re
publican. For that reason Sena is
expected to poll a heavy vote.

Cost Was Great
Those who look below the surface
that the things which. govern
ments accomplished during the war.
were accomplished at Z Staggering
cost; a cost which society could not
bear for long; a cost that has left so
ciety hurdeoed with debts which
mortgage generations OF the future.
They know that the feverfsh seeming
OF prosperity was not genuine, but
vas possible only became society was
ital; and that this destruction of cap
ttAl was responsible for the reaction
and depression which are now felt
universally. In this process the bur-
'dens OF government were immensely
increased and it Is for us now to ind
means Of tightening those burdens.
Government, to q greater extent
now than ever before. is under obliga-
ton to give The greatest serv5ce for
the lowest possible cost. But it Is for
certain obvious reasons difficult to do
his because government Is not under
the necessity to earn profits, nor to
obey laws which regulate competition.
These are the prime guarantees Of ef-
iciencv and fair dealing in private
business. They 50 not apply to gov
eminent; and therefore government

which ~ applied in private business
