POLITICAL GREENS"

The editor of the IA, Arlington
Times ustler has been tramping
around in his dreams and has &C
cidently turned over a leaf which
reads as follows:
People who are studying the
trendof political events should not
fail to observe that the presidents
rate bill was reported from the
Senate committee on railroads
without amendment by the vote OF
hvedemocrats and two republicans,
while six republicans voted against
it. 1t is a further fact worthy Of
note that Senator Tillman, a rad
ical democrat, has been given the
floor management for the republic
can presidents pet measure. Men
who are figuring on future politi-
cal events who do not take these
things into serious consideration
are very liable to be mistaken in
their conclusions"

When we read of the disaster
and horrifying work of storm and
flood in different sections of the
country, it makes us, if possible,
love our wide plains and perpet-
ual sunshine all the more. The
Society Islands we're this week en-
quilted and storm swept, causing a
tremendous loss of life and prop
erty. Property to the value Of five
millions was destroyed and ten
thousand people have lost their
homes and a great many of them
persisted in the storm. Meridian,
Mississippi, was also storm swept,
the terrific cyclone leaving death
and desolation in it's track. Our
folks in Quay County do not, we
believe, fully realize the extent of
the good things OF life they enjoy.

PENITENTES A QUEER SET

Lent is always regarded with
more interest in this part of the
country than any other for the
reason that the strange religious
sect known as the Penitentes are
most active, practicing their rites
OF flaggelation and other peculiar
ceremonies. Last year they were
quite active through this section
OF the country, and it was related
that a Mexican at Torres | n volun-
teering to permit the sect to prac.
tice their extreme excuses upon
him, persisted by being crucihed on
a cross. The truth of this weird
tale, which obtained wide promi-
hence, was never fully established
and neither was it authoritativclv
denied. Las Vegas News.

TRAIN LOADS OF IMMIGRANTS


Few people seem to realize Just
how fast Quay County is filling up
1t is estimated that $500 home
stead filings have been made in the
county since the first OF December
last. This will aggregate 100000
acres of land, or nearly n quarter
million acres. Still the exodus
continues; Wednesday night an
other Rock Island excursion
brought in 100 more homcscckCrs
who were unloadcd here and
spread out over the fertile plains
like a wave on the ocean. They
have gone to every section OF the
county in search of choice home
steads, and thus a possible 100
more homcstcads will be taken.
This will mean $4,000 acres more,
which, with previous entries, will
aggregate 265,ooO acres OF the pub
lie domain that is gonc,o out Of a pos
sible million and a quarter OF good
farming lands open when the rush
began last fall. This paper has had
letters recently from people who

against the butchers because they in
creased the price OF meat has extended
to Harlem. II was determined at a
large meeting OF women held In Har-
lem last night to Boycott the butchers
absolutely until the prices Of meats
are lowered.
The Harlem butchers also organized
last night to combat the boycott and
declared they would join their breth-
rem OF the Lower East Side In closing
their shops rather than face the possi-
bllty OF having their places of bust
ness wrecked. Like the butchers down
town they declared the increased cost
OF meat was necessary because the
packers had raised prices.
The women at their meeting adopted
resolutions not 10 buy any more meat
until the price is lowered. Meanwhile
fish viii take the place Of meat In
thousands of families.
Several little skirmishss occurred
yesterday, but most OF the butchers
on the East Side quieted their patrons
by telling them that they intended to
stand by the customers and fight the
wholesalers.
