PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS.

Senator Bursum has been associate on the
national committee with many republican senator's.
Many others he has become acquainted with at
national conventions. He we'll acquainted with
almost every republican senator when he was sent
to the senate.
This acquaintance and a resulting confidence
in the soundness of his judgment made it possible
for him to commence getting results Immediately
upon his arrival in the senate He has procured
many benefits of importance to New Mexico. Many
things of moment pending and will come
to early fruiton If he is elected.
Judge Hanna is a stranger to the senate. He
belongs to the minority instead Of the majority. He
could make party claims for recognition What
he accomplished would be by personal prestige
and good will. This can come only by favorable
acquaintance. When the senate members came
to know him well few of US do, they would
like him and trust him. But that would be three
or four years from now.
New Mexico needs forceful and well known

Despite this we in recent years have heard much
about people dying of starvation and our sympa-

That is what is the trouble In Russia today
That former empire has stretches of productive
soil capable of feeding hundreds of millions of peo-
pie. But the husbandman not being assured of tho
reward Of labor expended has failed to produce the
surplus that is demanded on behalf Of those who
have not. Therein is where man, not nature has
failed. The instance is proof that man must have

But to deny the employee the right of presenting
his case through as capable representative he

presented less effectively than it might have been.
The packer procures the best legal talent in the
world to represent him in controversy. Should
any court deny him such right, everyone would
consider it an outrage. Public opinion will enter

UNCLE WIGGHY AND THE
CLOVER,
BY Howard B. CARTS

Once upon a time four bad an
imals, the Fuzzy, Fox, the Woozie
Wolf, the Bushy Bear and the
Skillery Scallery Alligator, met in
the woods, not far from Uncle
Wiggily's hollow stump bungalow.
Have you nibbled any ears to-
day?" asked the Wolf of the Bear.
mo; have you?" asked the
Bear.
The Wolf said he had not, and
the Fox growled:
81 haven't either"
Nor l." said the Gator, as I
call him for short, though, really,
he was quite long, especially his
tail.
"I'll tell you what let's do"
rumbled the Wolf. Lets all keep
together until we find Uncle Wig
gily. That rabbit has very long
ears, and there will be enough for
each of us to nibble."
- Fine ideal" parked the Fox.
Lets gow
So the four bad animals set off
together to find the bunny rabbit
anu Ills ears.
Now just about this time Mr..
Longears started out from his hol-
low stump bungalow.
You want to be careful where
you CO." said Nurse Jane Fuzzy
Wuzzy. his muskrat lady house
keeper.
'Why?" asked Uncle Wiggily.
We'll, somehow or other | feel
as If something would happen this
day." went on Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy.
''Do be careful, Wiggie."
The bunny gentleman promised
that he would, and away he hop
ped. with his pink. twinkling nose
and his tall silk hat. He had not
gone very far. and he had just
reached bare and sandy place
on the edge of the woods, Uncle
Wiggily had, when, all of a sud-
den, out from behind rock
jumped the four bad animals--the
Bushy Bear, the Fuzzy Fox, the
Woozie Wolf and the Skillery
Scallery Alligator with humps on
his tail.
ooh. dear met" cried Uncle
Wiggily when he saw all these bad
chaps. This Is my unlucky day"
and he sat down suddenly in the
sand.
Hello, there!' growled the
Bushy Bear, as he stepped over
to the bunny. you're the one we
are looking for! Ears we want and
ears we must have. We're going
to nibble yoursl"

paws over his ears. But his paws
were too small, or else his ears
were too large. Anyhow his ears

the bad animals could see them.

, have to be submitted to the cleo
tors of the state. Therefore, they
are not affected or made consti-
tutional by the amendment.
If any of these special levy acts
are unconstitution for any
reason, they will not be ratified
or made constitutional or affect
ed in any manner by the ratifi-
cation of amendment No. II.
Your statement in that editorial
that Amendment No. II, in fact,
validates a whole flock of bond
issues, the proceeds of which are
for local use, but for which the
credit of the state Is pledged" Is
likewise erroneous. The amend
ment does not validate any bond
issue except the one issue not ex-
ceeding two million dollars, and
the credit of the state is not
pledged by any of the special laws
for local levies. Whether amend
ment No. IL is ratified or defeat
ed, the validity of those laws for
local special levies will be deter
mined upon their own merits, and
the decision as to those local spe-
cial levies which have been at
tackled in the courts, and those
which 1t Is understood the Taxpay-
ers' association intends to attack
