list, ventured from her house across to

ceiving quite a shock. Samantha Re-
turned home and is having relapse at

Sam Skinner had two more hens stole
off him last Tuesday night. Sam docs
not know for sure whether the theef is
skunk with four legs or skunk IN

his chickens before all of them are
stole.
Hen Weathersby announces that he
is going to have a new sign painted in
front of his store in the spring. There
is already sign in front of Hens store
with the name of Joshua Hendricks on
it. who Hen bought the store of 80
years ago. Joshua has been dead. 10,
these many years, and everybody knows
it and knows that Hen is the present
proprietor, but Hen thinks it would
look better and more business like to
have his name there instead of Josh's.
Hen would of had his name painted on
the sign long ago, but he has been so
drove up for the past so years that he
hasn't got around to it.
Deacon Butterworth while taking a
chew of plug in Hen Weathersby's
store tother ev'g bit into something hard
and broke the plate of his store teeth.
It proved to be a nail. The deacon
asked Hen to pay for the teeth. being
as he got the tobacco from him in the
first place, but Hen refused and told the
deacon that he ought to look where &c
bites before he bites. How the nail got
into the plug is mystery.

 Owners.

Do you know that you can have an artesian we'll drilled which will furnish sufficient water for irriga- ting from 300 to 500 acres of land at a very small cost per acre, by combining with your neighbors and each owner standing his pro- portion of the expense? If you de sire to get such we'll drilled at actual cost, combine and purchase five shares of stock at $100.OO per share in the Arizona and Texas Improvement Go. and you can save 100 per cent on the cost of one deep we'll. A combination we'll is now being drilled on Section 19 for the irrigation of over 400 acres. Those adjoining this land would do well to organize and contract for similar we'll while the drill is upon the ground.

NEW MEXICO NEWSPAPER
 PRAISES WILLIAMS WAY
Albuquerque Journal Says Arizona May Outstrip New Mexico in Good
 Roads Movement


 The Albuquerque Journal, al- ways alert and progressive. and an enthusia stic exponent of the efficacy of good roads, says in an editorial of last Wednesday,:
 If New Mexico doesn't look alive Arizona is going to leave us in the rear in the matter of good roads. The sister territory is rapidly bring ing to completion north and south highway between the Mexico border and the Grand Canyon of the Colo rado which traverses a stretch of country unsurpassed for scenic grandeur in the west. Every ranch man, every automobiles and every business man, county and state off. cials, are cooperating most enthus iastically to make Arizona's road system one of the finest in the world; and the progress they are making is surprising. Incidentally it is understood that the Arizona good roads devotees are co-operat- ing with New Mexico by putting substantial Improvements on the transcontinental highway through the White Mountain country to the New Mexico line.
 The Commercial club of the little town of Williams went after the county supervisors the other day and took away an approprsrtion of thousand dollars, for improving the road to Grand Canyon, as easy as separating infants from confec- tionery.
 In her good reads campaign which is of comparatively recent origin, Arizona is giving a demon stration of organized and enthusi- astic team work and public spirit which should stimulate us here in New Mexico; and we have much more to gain from rushing better ments on the road through this territory for the reason that it is a link in the great transcontinental system and there is no limit to the traffic it will secure.
 A little more of the Arizona spirit will help; and now. with a season of heavy transcontinental auto traffic opening, it behoves New Mexico to lose no time.

TEXAS STILL SUFFERS
Prohibitionists, Poor Losers, Plan to Con
 test Lost Election

Houston, Texas, Aug. 8-Al- though the proposed state wide pro- hibition amendment was defeated July 22nd by a majority in excess of 6O00, the prohibitionists are planning unique contest.
 At meeting of the executive com mittee of the faction following the announcement of the result, it was decided to carry the protest before the legislature and secure a general investigation of the election.
 Whether the Texas legislature wishes to tax itself with thls burden remains to be seen. As Governor Colquitt is an anti-prohibitionist. it is hardly possible that the ques- tion which for two years has em- broiled the entire states of Texas will be prolonged since it has been decisively settled.
 Before the election political peace" was the motto of both sides Now, it appears that, instead of political peace, the skeletons of po- litical battles of years gone by will be dragged from the closets and aired, unless repressed by a wise legislature which has the good of the state at heart instead of person. al political ambition.

INDIANS MUST WAIT
Unable to Secure Permission to Cut
Burned Timber.

Red Lake Indians will have to
wait until next winter at least for
permission from the secretary of the
interior to log the burned timber on
their reservation. Representative
Stevenson called today upon the in
terror department to press the petit
ton which the indians submitted last
November for the privilege of cut
ting and disposing of the timber.
He was informed, without a good
explanation of the delay in acting
upon the petition, that it came too
late in the session to make a decision
upon it worth while.
Representative Stevenson was
told also that in view of the scatter
ed disposition of the burned trees
it is doubtful if the logging of the
timber would be practicable.
The grant of the petition next
year will depend in a measure upon
what the government will do with
the green timber on the reservation.

schools will play.
That the game will be a good one
is assured, as the Deer River five has
a reputation of being one of the fast
est teams in this part of Minnesota
and the Bemidji quint will be better
than ever this evening, says coach
Robinson.
A curtain raiser will be played at
8 O'clock between the Freshmen and
Sophomores, the lineup will be:
Decentralization, centre; Hay
NOR and Malone, forwards; Peck and
Johnson, guards. Sophomores-
Bailey and Barber, forwards; Grendal
centre; Chamberlain and Akenbach,
guards.
The main attraction will be begun
at $3.50 sharp and the Bemidji lineup
will be as follows: Elletson and
Moritz, forwards; Captain Larson,
centre; Mcdonald and Spencer,
guards
At a meeting of the basketball
team last night Neuman who has
been captain of the five so far this
season asked that he be allowed to
resign because of the condition of
his arm, which was broken in the
Crookston-Bemidji foot ball contest,
he would be unable to play this
season. Louis Larson was then
elected by the boys to lead them this
year. Larson was captain of this
years championship football eleven
and that he made good captain was
made evident by the way in which
the boys dug in and pulled through
games to victory when things were
indeed dark for them.
