It will make It much easier now that Mr. Whispering Gillenwater has voluntarily JO e SI 71 subject the dn quanom special interest in view of Mr. Whispering Gillenwater's recent broaching of the topic of Sound Banking in the form of a Republican campaign advertisement filled with some interesting slander of the governor and former traveling auditor-the governor, "IN sujodde 03 posnjes oum Montezuma Trust company candidate for traveling auditor: and the former traveling auditor, who was appointed in place of Mr. Gillenwater's candidate!

We will state in all frankness that this letter is the ugliest, most venomous, most vicious, most malicious, most contemptible dem 8 10 eharacter the uo which we have ever seen issued during the progress of any campaign in New Mexico. Fortunately its malice, its venom, its ugliness are at once evident and deprive the letter of any political effect which it might otherwise have. In the first place the spectacle of a campaign manager for Frank Hubbell pleading for the "integrity of the courts" is conducive to uproarious laughter. In the second place the spectacle of a Republican campaign manager solemnly warn ing against the appointment of a Democrat by a Democratic president to a federal position is highly entertaining. In the third place Mr. Whispering Gillenwater at once gives the whole thing away by disclosing that he doesn't like Mr. Burkhart since the time that Mr. Burkhart, representing persons having a stock interest in the Montezuma Trust company, succeeded in getting this institution into the hands of a receiver. Whether or not Mr. Burkhart's action appeared to be based on good grounds the reader may conclude for himself after reading Mr. Gillenwater's advance defense of the institution, whose stockhold. ars, he says, exclusive of officers and directors, only stood to lose a mere trifle of some ten to fifteen thousand dollars. Mr. Whispering Gillenwater also says that Mr. Burkhart filed suit making "general charges of mismanagement" against Mr. Gil40J Auedmoo am pesn pen I 1841, personal ends and had, at or about the time the company discontinued business, a large overdraft." Thus we have the reasons for everything B se plain ST MR.

WHISPERING GILLENWATER is slandering the former traveling auditor because he was appointed In place of Mr. Gillenwater's Montezuma Trust company candidate. MR. WHISPERING GILLENWATER is violently slandering the United States district attorney because the latter is the man who caused his Montezuma Trust company to be placed in a receiver's hands and filed a complaint against Mr. Whispering Gillenwater alleging mismanagement of a bank.
