Santa Fe, N. M. "There is no
unworthy man to whose name
scandal attaches presented on
the Democratic ticket."
With this forceful declaration
te contained in an open letter to
the editor of the Cimarron
Nt'ws-Ciiizen, answering an in
quiry as to his present political
altitudo. Sick of the corrupt
ness of his own party, and un
able to stomach Hubbell and
Bursum, the former Republican
chairman comes out squarely
for Democratic success in New
Mexico.
"The slato ticket nominated
by my own party is largely
made up of men who in tho past
have not been bound by plat
form pledges and whose records
are such as to breed doubt rath
er than confidence in tbeir fi
delity to their public duties.
The independent voter cannot
safely place his faith in men
who persistently insist that 'the
people forget,' and in the other
equally dangerous precept 'The
people? To hell with the peo
ple! We run the state!'
"The ticket offeredby the
Democratic and Independent
conventions is as a w)iole made
up of much better men with
cleaner records 'evidencing a
consistent purpose to accomplish
the things set fi r h in
their platforms.' There is no
unworthy man to whoso name
scandal attaches presented."
The Town Cow
No doubt everyone who comes to town has had
trouble with the loose stock eating up your feed, or tearing
your flour or corn Hacks. 1 have arranged a free feed lot,
with stock water at the back of my store.

for the coming winter.
Wo pay tho highest prices for your produce. .

I A frw A a va no-n a. man nniilied to US for a loan.
who has lived within fifteen miles of Kenna for over a
year but has kept his deposit in an astern town whore
he formerly lived. Wo suggested th at he float his loan
with his Eastern bank, but he said they declined to make
the loan because he had moved out of the state. We
also declined making tho loan because be was a strang
er to us so far as his ability and integrity was concerned.
A few days later a. stranger camo in the bank, in
- troduced himself stating that he was locating near Ken
na and WAS going to make this his trading point, and
wanted to move his bank account from his former loca
tion to this bank, and it was plain to see that he had
some business judgement and meant to make the inter
ests of the country his interests by getting acquainted
at once and enhancing the value of his own property by
patronizing and helping to build up the local institutions;
these are the kind of men that are going to make a suc
cess because they throw in with their adopted commun
ity soul and body, and tho HOME BANK, Not the bank
back East will back them to the very limit, and in any
way that is consistent with sound banking business.
Come in and give us a trial, we will treat you right if
wo know how.
