In the spring of 1S93S. B. Bradford
of Warren county, Ia, found a per-
feet fossiliZed shark in the David ST.
mons coal mine, near Carlisle. This
tiny species of the ocean tiger" was
only about Ia inches long, but was a
perfect shark in every particular,
fins, head, tail, teeth, mouth, etc.
The strata of shale in which the pet
rifaction was found is fully 100 feet
beneath the surface, and considering
the fact that the Mississippi valley
has taken on so much in the shape Of
qualification and drift since the pc
riod in which his miniature shark
ship existed in flesh and blood, it is
no wonder that he is a pygmy when
compared with the thoroughbred
sharks Of today.-St. Louis Republic.

A Pew Reasons Why Deming should
Not be Incorporated.

A Pew Reasons Why Deming Should
Not be Incorporated.
Editor SOUTHWEST SENTINEL:
Thanks to your courtesy in publish h
ing my article Of last week, l feel EN-
boldened to once more task your good
nature for the purpose of giving
a few reasons why Deming should not
be Incorporated at this time.
In the first place neither the times
nor necessities of the town warrant any
such additional expense. For fourteen
ears Deming has managed to 20 along
without il. During that timeit has had
fewer failures than any town Of it's size
in the Territory. 1t has p~rospered, and,
had it not boon for the exhorbltant
prices set upon property by spectators,
would undoubtedly have grown many
times as large in that period.
Silver City is Incorporated, yet property
can be purchased there, for one
half the price asked here. Land which
sold a short time since for from 50. to
S15. per acre, and which, l understand, is
assessed at 81. so per acre, lie advertised
for sale for from $50. 10 500. per acre
And yet the only reason why this diff
ference should exist in the fact thet in
stead Of being owned by private individ-
uals, it is now owned 10y a corporatlonl
The mere fact that the promoters of
this scheme have encreased the price OF
land more than 10 fold IN less than two
years is prima facie evidence that the
town is expected 10 stand the brunt of the
deal either in the shHps of incorporation,
land through incorporation increase val
ues 10y granting franchises,) or else
through the issue of bonds TO reimburse
the gentlemen who engineer the scheme.
II is evident to a casual observer that
in the minds Of the gentlemen who are
engineering this matter that "all roads
leud TO Rome" or incorporation. And
on that suppositIon the first move was 10
have the County Commissioners appoint
enumerators for the purpose Of taking a
censu3 Of the eleventh precinct. Had
the appointees been named by the gen.
tlemen themselves there is little doubt
butIoss Than 1000 would have been found
bat the commissioners, declined to be
dictated TO, appointed their own repre-
sentatives, and the result is 1927, With
over HOO OF the 1927 people in this pre-
cinct in the town proper of Deming it
will undou5tedly-old bachelors being
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES several hundred TO
represent a%majority.
The people of Deming have cause to
congratulate themselves on the fact that
the present board Of County Commits
s%ioners are gentlemen perfectly capable
of looking after the afr iifs Of the Coun-
~ aud propose TO do so in the interest of
all the people In fact it is evident that
the time has gone by when bosses, would
be bosses and EXPOSES from Defining
and silver City can dictate TO and run a
bluff on the Commissioners Of Grant
County.
1t may seem strange to your readers
that this article should appear in the
SENTINEL instead OF the Headlight but
circumstances reuderit necessary. How
ever, it Is rumored that we are to have
a new departure IN the newspaper line,
with strong probabilities Of u radical
change. More anon.

There have been many famous
liars in ancient times. It is said
that one Of them so far excelled all
others, hat the devil himself be-
came jealous aud expelled him from
hell; this is probably a mere le-
gend, and perhaps modern times
can furnish examples of real super
iority. We started to speak of Mr..
Thielmann when we we're diverted
by an involuntary train Of thought.
Mr.. Theilmann is a truthful man,
and we fear he may at some time
suffer for it. AS Ananias was ex-
PEELED from the hot place because
Of the jealousy Of the devil, so Mr..
Ihielmann may find the gates Of
Paradise locked against him
through the jealousy of st. Peter.
And thus Ananias and MI. Theil.
mann may be left alone TO comfort
one another. They would then
have leisure TO read Theilmanu's
letters to tho Enterprise, and at
the end Of the ~unbroken, unlimited
eternity find harmony in his ap.

The outlook for early feed and
a big lamb crop was never better

cuts materially into the profits.
A string of Texas sheep which

Governor Hogg, of Texas, has
issued bis proclamation declaring

with the state Live Stock Sanitary
Commission. The commissin adopt
ed the line previously established
by the Department of Agriculture,
aud this is the line proclaimed by
the Governors proclamation.
The secretary of the Illinois
State Board of Live Stock Com
m%issioners announces that in all
probability there will be called for
some time in June, to meet in
Washington, D.. c., a meeting of
all state boards of Live Stock Com
missioners in the United States for
the purpose of ~dicussing the best
manner of combating live stock
disease and to secure uniform leg
islation.
A London dispatch of the Goth
says: The government board of
agriculture to-day adopted a for
NAL reply to the delegation of
farmers ana cattle raisers which
asked that except under special
conditions all live cattle brought
to England, Scotland, Ireland or
Wales should be compulsorily
slaughtered at the port Of landing.
The reply, which is signed by
Hon. w. Gardner, president of
the board, says that pleuro-pneu-
monia is the only disease against
which slaughter at the ports
would afford a full measure of
security. Under the present law
there are ample safeguards against
the introduction of this disease,
and as compulsory slaughter would
be decidedly detrimental to COM

CoxEY's Industrial Army is n
peculiar aggregation of men.
While it would be unjust per-
haps, to characterize it as n com
bination of desperate cranks and
buns, the appellation would be
no serious misit. The men I'M
der the different commands are
only held in subsection through
feer of two things j. e. arrest and
interruption.
Every man with a heart to pity
a not but deplore the condition
of the thousands of unemployed,
but that they should enlist in such
an unholy cause, as a means of
redress; is as equally deplorable.
When the unemployed band to-
gether as vandals, ignore the law
transgress civil aud military
rights, appropriate every conveu-
fence to their own use and usurp
the rights of others they jeop-
ardise their liberty and cast an
odium upon the honest wage work
er which they can i'll afford to
bear. The Industrial Army does
not represent the honest element
of the unemployed today. No
honest man or collection of men
would resort to such acts as are
practiced by it. This army Is not
seeking employment; work, at fair
compensation is spurned by them.
The great majority of them are
tramping simply because they
want to tramp; they will not work.
True, there are some honest men
among them, but they are few.
The line of distinction between
honest poverty and malicious
want is found when aid is offered.
An honest mon will accept charity
with a grateful heart while the
malicious tramp prefers rather to
force or steal relief.

cent interview with Henry S. New,

yond a doubt that the "little school

for political pie. Well, it would
be a mighty mean man who would
say an unkind word of the little
ex-president, for he is a nice man;
an awful nice man. But then he
is too fat and short-waisted to

political hand-caps that he will be
