Pumping Plants.

II. C. Zimmer has contracted
to put in a pumping plant for
irrigation purposes for John l..
Moore at Brogado, Findelson 4
Shurger at Dixieland and j. l..
McGinty at Grandfalls. We
fully believe that this method of
watering land in West Texas will
solve the problem of crop rails
ing. -Barstow (Tex.) Journal.
1t will be seen by the above
that pumping plants are con-
sidered practical and a paying
investment even where there is
a big irrigation system, as is the
case in the country that the
Journal speaks of. If the pump
ing plant is a success in the
Pecog Valley we can think Of
no reason why 1t shouldn't be
the same in the Mimbres Val
ley. Here water is found at a
shallow depth, in great abun-
dance and also is as pure as is
to be found on earth. With these
advantages, coupled with a rich,
loamy soil, crops should be rails,
ed in abundance in this valley
with pumping plants.

themselves on the roof of building
overlooking White Star line pier
routed several strikebreakers who
were at work on the dock by hurting
bricks and other missiles at them.

the strikebreakers one OF the police
men was struck on the head by a
brick. He was not seriously injured.

SHORTAGE OF MISSIONARIES
Presbytsrlans Report Great Need In
All Foreign Fletds.

Birmingham. Ala. May 1.-THE re-
port which the executive committee
OF the Alliance OF the Reformed
Churches throughout the world hold
ing the Presbyterian system will
make to the general assembly Of tho
Southern Presbyterian church has
been made public. The report says
that each year 1t becomes more appar-
ent that the Christian church at home
cannot furnish sufficient missionaries
Dor the evangelization Of heather peo-
pie. nor can sufficient physicians be
sent to supply the needs OF the for
eign mission fields. Three hundred
thousand physicians are needed alone
in China, says the report. The United
Presbyterian church has recently been
appealed to to send over 400 mission
aries for their field in Egypt and In
dia. Equally great need ia felt in all
mission fields. The report says the
only possible way OF meeting the need
- the establishment Of seminaries,
colleges and hospitals for the raising
up OF q native ministry, native teach
ers and native physicians. As to home
missions the report says that all the
churches are awakening to q deeper
sense Of responsibility for the United
States.
The report offers a resolution for
adoption which deprecates ''the ef.
fort In many places in our country by
the Roman Catholic church to produce
sympathy for the Catholics Of France
By charging persecution OF the church
against the French government We
believe that this charge IL based upon
false assumptions ana that these ef
forts are revealing and developing a
spirit contrary to free institutions and
the true liberty Of our land"

railroads Cannot Discriminate In Fa-
vor Of One Another.


Washington, May lS.-An impor-
hnt circular. issued by the interstate
1ommerce commission, contains an
administrative ruling which Is OF spe-
cial interest both to the railroads and
TO the shipping public. In this ruling
"the commission expresses the opin-
ion that under the law carrier or a
person or corporation operating rail-
road or othor transportation line can
not. as a shipper over the lines OF
another carrier, be given any prefer
ence in the application Of tariff rates
on Interstate shipments. In other
words one carrier, shipping its fuel,
material or other supplies over the
line of another carrier, must pay the
legal tariff rates applicable to the
same commodities shipped by an in
dividual The commission suggests
that there may be some instances
such as the movement Of needed fuel
In which. In order to keep the trains
or boats moving, such traffic could be
given preference In movement without
creating unjust or unwarranted dis
elimination"
II Is said there probably Is not q
railroad In the country that has to
pay the regular tariff on any of It's
supplies from the initial point to the
point Of destination. This Is especially
true OF coal used by the railroads for
fuel purposes Coal Is shipped to a
given point from the mines for rail-
road at a rate far below that which q
dealer at that point would have to
pay In freight charges. The commits
sion holds, In effect. that this Is dis
elimination and that the railroad must
pay the same tariff as the individual
