Why should not the government. as a
land owner, deal directly with the pro-
ducer, rather than through the inter
ventiOn of a middle man to whom title
to the land has passed?
ANY ideal or practical law must fur
Their recognize the fact that the actual
discovery involves heavy expenditure
and considerable time, and that the
pTOspector must be adequately protect
ed in his investment before, as well as
after, the discovery is made. The area
to which he is given preferred right
must therefore be sufficiently large to
justify his initial heavy investment
and in such compact shape as to protect
his discovery from encrOachment by
drilling on subsequent entries.
A WeII-cOnsidered leasing law will
give certain incidental advantages OF
great Importance, both to the govern
ment and TO the oil operator. 1t will
constitute the most effective means fol
the conservation of the oil and gas re
sources of the country by enabling the
government to regulate developments SO
as to prevent much Of the criminal
waste now prevalent.
Under the present system the owner
Of a tWenty-acre placer claim is COM
PEELED to drill and pump the oil from his
land with all possible speed, regardless
of transportation facilities or market,
Tor otherwise his competitors on adjOin-
ing claims will take a large share Of il
away from him. In the resulting fever
ish exploitation half a dozen or more
wells may be drilled when one would
have secured the same amount of ola
serious economic waste to the nation
and a heavy tax on the ultimate con-
eT7TrqnT Also unrestricted drilling by
careless or ignorant operators may
ruin a valuable field by admitting water
to the oil sand from higher or lower
water bearing stratum. Many examples
of criminal waste resulting from the I'M
restricted exploitation of old fields
might be cited.
Tho government is not only the
largest owner of oil lands, but it is like
ly to be the largest consumer. The six
largest battleships in commission or un-
der construction ia the American navy
are equipped for the use of either oil OF
coal, and the fourteen largest destrOyers
use oil exclusively. The question of fue
supply for these vessels is certain to be-
come an exceedingly important one II
the near future, and the law should pro-
vide means of peTpetuating a supply
for this certain future need.
''The fact is gaining recognition that
the natural resources remaining in the
possession Of the government are the
heritage Of the whole people, and the
idea that they should be economically
utilized for the general good, rather thar
exploited for the enrichment of a few in
dividuals, is rapidly crystallizing into
public opinion. The enactment by con-
gress of a law providing for the leasing
of oil lands viii be a logical and much
needed action in the governments man
agement of its great petroleum proper

The study Of the evolution Of dress

the genius of a Darwin. JUST when a
man THINKS that he is, at least, on tie
level of scientific opinion he finds that
he has dTifted leagues astern Of it, or
far away TO the left or right. The sub
ject is so difficult because, naturally,
we have no ancient costumes before US
in linen or wool, while the early artists
who depict them are not always rust
worthy persons. They have a strong
tendency, from the dateless period Of
the artists contemporary with the NAM
moth and the reindeer in France 20 the
bushmen in South Africa, to draw men
with wasps' waists, and to represent
people as naked who were generally
clothed. No one was likely to go naked
IN a climate that suited the mammoth
and reindeer, especially if he was wei
supplied with bone needles TO sew his
raiment, as he certainly was. Yet

never failed to do their duty.
PEPLOs AND BELTED SNOCK.
This fashion alone the Cretan ladies
Of 25O0-14O0 B. c. never evolved and no
safety pins are found in the older sites
of Cretan civilization. They come in at
the end Of that period. AS they are
also found far away in the north in
eastern central Europe, it is probable
that they were brought south from
these quarters by prehistoric ancestors
of the Greeks, the Achaeans, DOrians
and so forth. The women would wear
the peplOs, the men a belted smOck or
chiffon, with a cloak over it, also fast
ened with a safety pin, I'm cold weather,
We have in Homer a full description
Of the smOck, cloak and elaborate gold

describes. In a war man put his
cOrselet on over his chiffon, Of which
the tails musl have hung down below

climate too cold to be content with the
southern lOin cloth; in fact, it is very

use, with the coat over which the plaid
is now worn.

FREED BY WILD HOGS FOR
 HOURS

Freed by herd of havaIina, or wild hogs for several hours as the result of a foolish shot into the midst of the animals, was the experience undergone by Ernest Durbin and Geo. Tucker. of the Copper Queen hotel staff while hunting in the Rincon mountains last week. They were rescued from their precarious position by George North rop, also an attache of the hotel who rode up on horseback and dispersed the drove after killing three of them.
 The party had become separated during the day Durbin and Tucker being together, while Northrop. mounted upon a horse was in another canyon. While going through patch of scrub oak Tucker suddenly sighted a wild hog eating and thinking the the animal alone, he fired at it. Im- mediately the wounded pig com menaced to sequal and the rest of the drove broke through the underbrush ready to attack anything which had caused their companion the pain he evidently complained of
 A small tree was fortunately nea: at hand and without ado Durbin an: Tucker sought its shelter leaving their rifles on the ground while the hostile pigs gathered about the foot of the tree and with angry grunts awaited their descent. Fortunately code of signals had been arranged for between the members of the party and three shots from the six shooters of the men up the tree finally brought Northro" to the rescue. He had little difficulty | in dispersing the animals with his horse although with their long tus.<s they would have undoubtedly have wrought him injury had he not been mounted.
 The party brought with them the skin of one of the slain havalina pigs as well as two deer skins. They killed a quantity of small game also.

ROMANCE STORY
 COMES FROM DOUGLAS

A pretty young woman dressed in champagne colored gown made en princess stepped from the east-bound Southwestern passenger saturday morning, accompanied by a young man, for a short promenade before the train started. An obliging train man brought to light a romance which began in August.
 The young lady, Miss Mae Harvey. was on her way, in January, from Kansas City to her home at Red lands, California, the young man, F. E. Caldwell, an employe of the Gold en State Limited, had occasion to re- turn to her an article which she had lost; an acquaintance quickly ripen- ed. followed by trip to Redlands by the young man in August.
 This morning Miss Harvey arrived in Benson, was met by the young man and they were married by Justice Schilling on board the parlor car of the outhwestern with Conductors J. B Caruthers and Frank Delacie as witnesses. They will live at Tucum- cari, New Mexico.
 It was a happy and contented hunting party that returned from Sil- yer Creek last night They had the time of their lives, had lived like lords and brought home enough game to satisfy.
 The party got away before o'clock in the morning, and returned about at night with two dozen quail, five dozen doves, cotton tails and jack rabbits of which they lost count, and library of good stories on their days adventure
 Doctor" Huxtable not only wrote all the prescriptions, but acted as chaplain and is reported to have op- ened up jar of bacon with prayer instead of a can opener. The Lion Tanner" did not allow loaded gun ! in the wagon or in camp and preserv- | ed order generally but came to grief himself, standing accused of shooting tiny, baDy duck. This Teddy in dignantly denies. He insists it was mud hen, says it was great shot anyway and insists that there was not enough of the bird left to prove 7; that it was a duck.
