the ostensble reason being to give A. B. McMihen,
attorney for the First National time enough to
return to Albuquerque from a trip abroad. At that
time the Arizona authorities will, they announce,
return to Santa Fe to press the matter.
Governor Mechem no intmation, accord
ing to information received by the journal. as to
his final action.
These defendants claim that there technical
reasons for questioning these indictments. They
also assert their innocence the merits This be-
ing true it is difficult for the average to I'M
derstand why they do not hasten to Holbrook ard
quash the indictments, prove their innocence.
Their fierce fight to prevent extradtion is incon-
sstent with their claim of innocence.
The chief thing which the average citizen feels
is the certainty that had he been charged with
crime in Arizona and his eXtradition asked for last
Thursday, he would be his way to that state
right now, in custody of the sheriff. He feels GER
tain that the governor would have acted promptly
in delivering him up
The journal has wish to the final out
como of these in Arizona, except that justice
be done. We are resentful that men can become
so powerful in business and politics that they can
put themselves for months or years beyond the
reach of the law.
Perhaps Governor Mechem will give these men
up May 10 and so help them to have the chance
to prove their innocence before jury in Arizona.

"Just the thing!" cried Uncle
Wiggily. please cut me off a

SO Nurse Jane kindly did this,
giving Uncle Wiggily long, wide
strip of the black cloth. He put
it around his neck, tied It into a
bow, with long, flowing ends, and
then put on his glasses.
"How do l look, Nurse Jane?''
he asked.
"Just like some artists, but not
like all artists!" the muskrat lady
answered IT'S new fad-he'll

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
MATRMoNY AND EDUCATION.
(From the Dayton News

(From the Dayton News)
1t George AIDE, that incompatible humorst,
who put into the mouth of one Of the characters
in "The College Widow" the words Look at the
college widow: she never marries; she just fools
around" These may not be the exact words, but
they convey the meaning which Mr.. AIDE intended
should be conveyed. 1t appears however, that con-
ditions have changed since the good old days of
AIDES delightful comedy
Dean Nicholson has procured from the marriage
records of Wesleyan graduates at Middetown,
Conn. statistics which show that every tenth man
that to Wesleyan will marry local girl By
his own method of reasoning, therefore, the Dean
declares that the chances of girl getting married
in small college towns are fully quarter better
than they II she lived in a community of equal
size where there is no college.
Thus matrimony and education have something
more in common. For fear that his assertions may
be misunderstood the Dean does not profess to be-
lieve that matrmony is the only mission in town
where college Is located, In and around Middle
town figures said to disclose more than 225
girls from that city have accepted Wesleyan gradu-
ates for husbands, and 100 more have married men
studied at Wesleyan, but did not graduate there.
Adjoining communities have contributed to this
survey. These figures being true, 1t is easy TO dis
Germ how colleges in small communities render a
distinct service, and refute practically everything
| Mr.. AIDE has said on the subject.

TELLING THE TRUTH.

The Deming Graphic takes us to task for
criticsing Governor Mechem The postmaster
publisher his salary by coming to the defense
of a republican governor It's all right. He should
do what is expected Of him.
The editor makes the following rather candid
sounding statement
MI Magee has alienated public opinion by
his unfair treatment of news originating in the
disturbed at Gallup. 1t Is bad newspaper
practice to carry editorial bias outside of the
editorial column Readers are entitled to the
news it is and not the editor would like
it to be. Such prejudice foments class feeling
and interferes with reasonable adjustments Of
difficulties"
We do not mind being criticised We rather
like it in fact But this disingenuous effort have
it appear that guilty of coloring the news
to fit an editorial policy is utterly unfair. The Jour
nal has a standing rule in the department
that story shall color the facts. We attempt &c
adhere to it vigorously.
The people should have the facts. If these are
given accurately the public draw its own deduc-
tons. The editorial page is the place in newspa-
per for the airing of the editors conclusions.
The Journal charges that the special interests
and the politicians are the ones who have sought
to misead the public to the facts at Gallup. The
very quotation from the Graphic which reprint
above is only an effort to lead people to believe
that trouble existed in Gallup when it did not
Some ten thousand people in and about Gallup
know the facts Several thousand of these read
the journal every day. How absurd it would be
to state an untruth about conditions and SO brand
ourselves as liars before that vast audience.
The Journal stated the simple truth about Gal
lup No one has specifically denied our state
ment of facts All that the defenders Of Governor
Mechem have done has been to disagree with us
as to what might have happened if the troops had
not been sent. Probably mans views is good
as another's to what may happen in the future.
All Of which is written to combat the propa"
ganda that deliberately color the facts, and no;
for the purpose of defending position. The peo-
pie may rest assured that this insinuaon is untrue
now and always If the Journal inadvertently fails
to the truth it never fails TO make correction.

Gated by the course OF events at

Sugars and affiliated stocks
were bought on additional price

little better than firm. but second
airy issues, particularly New Haven

in greater demand. Sales amounted
to 1,135,OO0 shares.
Money brokers regarded the
higher rate for call loans as mere

Time funds were unchanged, but
were less freely offered for the
