High License.

From Ration Range.
Roswell has adopted a high license
ordinance for saloons and gambling
which goes into effect upon July 1st,
and its operation will be watched
with great interest by the entire Ter
ritory.
The annual license is $4,000 and it
must be paid in advance for the whole
year. The gambling license is also
greatly increased and must also be
paid annually in advance. The result
will be a tremendous falling away in
the number of saloons in the city and
the total extinction of the low down
dives. those pest holes of iniGuity,
high class affairs run by men of re-
sponsibility and some standing in
the community and will doubtless be
managed in a law-abiding. business
like way. for a man who pays license
of that size isn't going TO imperil his
business by-.disobeying plain laws.
Now if they will form a saloon trust
down there and make the price of
drinks fit the license by raising it to
two bits a drink. they will come pref
ty near solving the temperance aues-
ton as well as it can be nowadays.

water each per second n irr1gate
about 10000 acres of land. By drill

largest artesian wells in the world
are made in this region. Some flow
from 5000 to 1000 gallons of pure
water per minute, sufficient to irri-

ually thinks of it as a kind of make

avoid. He who has once farmed under
irrigation would never be content to
farm in a country where they are
compelled to depend en- the uncertain
ties of rainfall; where it is too wet
in the spring and too dry in the sum-

rain after they are harvested.
Imagine a farm in Iowa where it
could be made to rain just as it was
needed. not too mich, nor too little.
There would be no crop failures. You
could tell just how much could be pro

would be about four times as much
