Of putting under cultivation $4,000
acres of semi-arid land in section 10,
township 10, range % east.
Frank D. Wilson, of Frank D. Wilson
& Co., of Tacoma, acting for big

Are Laws Purposely Made Defective

Why are our most important state
laws found defective when they are put
into use? Is it because Of the in
competence OF the men we send to
the Legislature to make the laws, or are
these laws purposely made defective
by INSCRIPTIONS members of the legis-
lature in order to defeat the purposes
for which they are intended The
direct primary law which the people
of this state considered a model of its
kind, and remedy for the political
crookedness of the state, has been
found faulty in many ways, and no
doubt some rather unpleasant dis
closures could be brought to light if a
thorough investigation were made as
to how certain defects became en-
bodied in the law and certain omissions
overlooked.
And now it is said that the new
road law which became effective this
month, and which provided for twenty
four road supervisors in county in
stead OF three, and in many other ways
is an improvement over the verv un-
satisfactory road law in use during the
past few years, is so full of errors that
it may possibly be pronounced invalid.
There is certainly something wrong
when two of our most beneficial laws
are made more or less worthless because
of defects which look suspiciously
intentional. Index News.

THE VALUE OF A LOCAL PAPER
The Opinion of United States Senator
of the Country Press

Senator Vest of Missouri once said
to body Of commercial travellers.
1t is true that a newspaper is BUSH
ness and should be treated like any
other business having articles of value
in exchange for money. Its reading
matter costs time, labor and money to
prepare, besides the cash outlay for
machinery and material used in its
preparation. Persons who want to
make their own business known to
oilers can find no surer, more direct
or more fl e ctive m cans than
thru the use of space in the local news
paper, and if at all reasonable, they
must expect to pay a fair charge
therefor, without in any degree es-
tablishing a claim on the gratitude OF
the publisher. To that extent the
printer gives as much as he gets, but
it is also true that a country news
paper is a business of a special char
acter and it does have special claim
on public favor. While scouting ut
terly all talk of charity" it may
Justly be said that newspaper is an
agency of public usefulness, whose
promotion of the general welfare is
constant and helpful in degree
seldom appreciated. Its operation in
manifold ways tends to advance the
interest of the community and in that
way to benefit the individual citizen,
In this sense it deserves the support
of every right minded man whatever
his views about its editors politics, re-
ligion or other private affairs may be.

1t is gratifying to learn that people
in increasing numbers are coming here
to the southwest and settling down
upon small farms or ranches. We hope
that great proportion OF these people
are from the cities, because the ten
dency of men to herd in the cities is
one OF the bad things OF this civiliza-
ton.
There is no man more independent
than the man who owns a farm no
matter how small-in a productive
region. He is the master of his own
fate. Panics cannot hurt him; wars
and rumors OF wars do not effect the
solidity OF his investment. He is the
lord OF the soil and his sovereignty
cannot be shaken.
Why men will herd together in
great wildnernesses OF brick and mortar
when they might be tenants Of Gods
out-of-doors is one OF the puzzles which
the philosophers have not solved.
That men are beginning to desert the
modern Babylons for the soil is one OF
the encouraging signs Of the times.
When the drift toward the cities is re-
versed and humanity turns to the
country it will be better for the nation
and for mankind. Los Angeles Exam

Showing During Financial
Stringcncy.

Not one bank failure has been re
corded In West Virginia during the
financial troubles of tho past few
months. When 1t is considered that
banks have been falling in all parts
OF the country, this is looked upon
as really remarkable showing. re-

Virginia's wealth and prosperity IS
founded upon the bed rock.

ing commissioner. is now preparing
his annual report for publication,
and 1t is declared his report is to be
the best made in the whole country.
Taken as whole there has been
practically little banking trouble in
the state.
