FIRE ALARM SYSTEM NEEDED
The fire Wednesday again EN-
uhasized the urgent need for al
electric fire alarm system, I'm
mediately upon the alarm bejns
given everybody began to ash
where is the fire. People stoOt
UNCERTAIN which way to go
Some fremen ran to the hose
cart house and started with {
horse pulling the cart-for thu
depot. Why? Because the wilc
cat whistle blew and they
guessed the fire was down to
wards the railroad. They hoped
by the time they reached the
railroad to find out the direction
Of the fire. All along Jefferson
and Lincoln avenues the people
stood on the sidewalks or in
their doors and yelled to the on.
rushing hose cart men, Where
is the fire.. Don't know" and
on they went rushing to the de-
: pot.
This was a striking illustration
Of the delay which can not be
avoided where there is no fire
alarm system. And delay, in
case of fire is a very important
matter. A question of a very
few minutes often decides
whether a house and contents
shall be a total loss or not. If
you happen to be insured (being
one of the fortunate ones who
can pay the exorbitant and rob-
Der rates of the insurance com
panies). you can possibly stand
being burned out, but if you are
not insured and lose all you have,
you will find it hard that the
Council did not provide the town
with an alarm system that would
have prevented the delay that
cost you your all.
Lafayette is now too large to
depend on guess work to locate
fires and it covers too much
territory to permit delay in To-
iating them. This fact should
be realized and q unanimous de
mand made upon the Council for
an electric fire alarm system.
An electric fire alarm system
may be somewhat costly in in
stalling but the cost will be
more than saved to the tax pay
ers in reduced insurance rates
and the certain saving of prop
eTty from burning because elm
mating the delay in fighting fire.
The time has come for US to
make an improvement in our
method of handling fires. Lafa-
yette covers too much ground
and the houses are too numerous
to longer risk delay. A FIRE
that might be extinRuished if
reached in time may now easily
on q windy night not alone burn
the building first caught, but
sweep on to other buildings and
destroy thousands of dollars of
property. Without a certain
system of fire alarms. the kind
to have with an electric fire
alarm system, the delay is sure
TO exist and every day such con-
ditions exists is a menace to
property.
To save this unnecessary risk
and to reduce the high rate of
insurance at the same time, a
general demand should be made
by the people on the Council to
put in an electric fire alarm
system.

tic theories. with some of social
ism'S most prominent advocates
in this country. When women
of the Countess of Warwick's
stamp quit society to advocate
political and economic theories,
there must be something in
those theories well worthy OF
consideration.
Socialism is a subject that can
not be explained in a few words;
and it's discussion generally
arouses such bitter arguments
that for obvious reasons. the sub
ject has never been preached in
these columns. However. social
ism is a thing that looms mighty
and large on the horizon of mans
destiny, and to avoid it's discus
sion because it arOuSes acrimony
is little short of criminal; and
without expressing an opinion
for or against it, and merely con-
sidering the question as an item
of news, we think it our duty to
call the attention of our readers
to the visit Of the Countess Of
Warwick. and the remarks of the
Right Rev. Gordon Lang, Bishop
of East London, and Suffragon,
or assistant to the present Bish-
op of London, who recently Wis
tied this country. The Bishop
of Stepney is one of the most ia
nous clergymen in England, and
was the late Queen Victoria's
chaplain. Like many of Eng
lands prelates, he is an advanced
thinker. and has a heart full of
sympathy for the under dog in
the struggle of life. At the con-
gress of the English church, at
Yarmouth, in England, the Bish-
op said: I'VE see the tide of a
great movement. which. whether
we like it or not, is going to be
the master of the current of life
among civilized people in the
twentieth century. There is an
abundance of luxury, but there
is an appalling abundance of pow
cry. The nineteenth century
forgot it. It is not enough to
wealth lavishly. It is
more important how it is distrib-
uted. A reaction was bound to
come, and some of us welcome it.
The nineteenth century was a
period of individ ualism and COM
the twentieth century
will Jake its place as an era of
socialism and cooperation. What
is to be the attitude of the
church? It cannot be one of
mere opposition. The question
is not whether we can arrest it.
but whether the the influence of
Christ can lead and guide it,"
Socialism has often been con-
with anarchism. A vast
number of papers have purpose
" linked the two names together,
so that the hate and horror
aroused by the name of anarch.
might be heaped upon social
ism. THE reason for this is OBJ
The aristocracy. and the
plutOcracy are thoroughly
satisfied with the world as it is,
and have no desire for the radi-
cal changes which socialism
bring about. All the good
things are coming their way; it
is a very good world for them,
but there are millions of people
in this world to whom life is one
bitter struggle. It is to
those people that socialism
comes as a joyous inspiration.
for the socialistic theory abol.

the adjustment of all govern

yidual does just as he pleases,
regardless of his neighbor or So

FIREARMS PROHIBITED ENTERING MEXICO
Mexican Line Riders Have Re CeiVed Orders to Arrest All
 Foreigners With Guns,

DOUGLAS, Sept. 15.-(Special.l- 1t is becoming more difficult to get firearms into Sonora, and it is now un- lawful even to step across the inter- national boundary line and shoot jack rabbit with a shot gun The Mexican line riders have received orders to ar rest all foreigners who cross the line with any kind of, gun unless a per init for the importation of the same has been granted by the secretary of war at the City of Mexico.
 Many small game hunters have been out on the flats along the. line after rabbits and birds and in some instan- ces go little way on the other side. The new orders provide for the arrest of these hunters so it will stand the Americans in hand to keep on this side of the line with their shotguns, unless they want to lose their guns and get into a Mexican jail Of late the line both to the east and west of Naco has been exceptionally well patrolled by the guards and there is not much chance of man escaping after he once sets foot on Mexican soil.
 The reason given for the strict en- forcement of the law is that the guns are liable to get into the hands of the Yaquis.

that the people in that section are will over the gas strike. The company that struck gas had some artesian wells on their land They were drir. ing deeper when they struck gas on Friday. The water is only partly cased of, yet there is a pressure of 100 pounds to the square inch The whole valley is crazy over the strike. Kent writes. Fifty people from Ros- well, N. NJ, came into the district by special train on Saturday nigGt They arrived at midnight and immedi- ately hastened by all sorts of convey ances and on horseback to the scene of the well, which is located about two miles southeast of Kent.
 An installation was held at the well on Saturday night and people in Lockwood, Artesia, Lake Arthur and Hagerman reported that they could read newspaper on their porches three and four miles away.
 Many Fl Paso. Douglas and Bisbee capitalists are interested in gas and oil leases in New Mexico who will be interested in this gas strike which seems to be all that is claimed for it. There are also quite number of them :2ho are interested directly in land ir the immediate vicinity of where the saser was drilled in the Pecos valley.
