THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY

II the Republican primary Of last
wednesday evening did nothing else
II shows that the Republican voters
OF Luna county are dissatisfied with
the self-appointed leaders that have
lead the party nowhere except into
defeat and difficulty. The fight that
developed was the first real resistance
10 those who play the game as n bust
ness proposition. The opposition by
no means developed its full strength,
in fact the ordinary voter Is care
less fellow who is usually willing
enough 10 let the politicians represent
him In the councils Of the party while
he is making his living the best way
he can.
The growing importance OF the Re
publican party in Luna county has
caused the bunch" to shift their
forces somewhat from the Democratic
organiZa ton In order to keep control
of the Republican organization. Enough
are left. however, in the Democratic
ranks 10 handle the situation that has
developed there. Party labels mean
nothing 10 the bosses they must win
no matter what party comes into pow
or.
The bunch had close squeak
last Wednesday. They have, how
ever. very good working system Of
iais0n and can develop their full
s-reng at any viven point Of resistance
in this way rhey have a great ad-
vantage Glf re holding an extended
front with rv thin line. The OPP
position has mother advantage in that
II has by Ear the larger number Of
voters; all they need is proper organia-
ton This they will effect in time
and then there will he an offensive
that will meet with very little resist
snce.
Deming needs lot of things that
can never be obtained while the pro-
fessional ward heelers are in power.
Their control Is for purely selfish rea-
sons and their interests are only &C.
Incident with that of the average citi-
zen In very general way. They
provide odd jobs TO the faithful who
do their bidding and extend special
favors to those who owe them allegi-
ance. The ordinary citizen when plac-
ed In conflict with the bosses or their
followers find themselves out Of court

The boycott is used freely on the re.
factory ones to bring them into line.
To do business In Deming on an equal
basis II is necessary first to seek the
pose and dispose as suits their fancy
or their interests. To say the least
this condition Of affairs is intolerabic
for a free American citizen.
The Headlight, which never loses an
occasion to support the supremacy Of
the bunch" says that the opposition
has a lot To learn about the political
game. II is hardly surprising that
the politicians who are only Interested
in the game during campaigns, should
be- a poor match for those who are at
II 365 days in the year, The opposi-
tion must win by developing clean lead
ership that can make use Of the advant-
age Of superior number through eff
cient organization.
The neglect OF primaries and CON
ventions is one Of the weaknesses of
our present political system. II Is
possible TO urge upon the voters the
necessity of casting their ballots, but
II the candidates are hand-picked at
boss-controlled primaries and conven.
tions to what purpose is served by
yotingp Last year the Republican
county candidates were largely chosen
by two or three men and brazenly pre-
sented 10 intelligent voters for approx
al. That they were defeated was
due largely to Republican votes cast
In protest
The Republican voters do not oh.
ject in the least to the activities OF
the powers that have controlled the
party; they are glad to have them take
an interest in electing Republicans 10
office. Last Wednesday the opposi-
tion was charged with preparing a
slate which was admitted, but the
difference between the one prepared
by the opposition and that jammed
through by the bosses was that the
opposition list contained the names Of
some Of the so-called leaders and the
gang excluded everyone that might
have raised an inharmOnious howl in
the county convention.
