DEVELOPMENT

But few of our people are aware
OF the vast amount of development
work that has been done and is
now being completed by the Sea-
man Syndicate, the purchasers of
the Adams, Barth and Wilkins
tracts of land, comprising some
$4,000 acres just south of town.
They have constructed nearly
thirty miles of canals, ranging in
width from Is to 30 feet. and all
four feet deep, and will use sixteen
car loads of lumber in the building
of headgates, spihways, etc, to say
nothing of the numerous laterals
that have been put in, in order
that every section of their land
may be easily, thoroughly and
economically irrigated whenever
desired.
This irrigation system has cost
them $4,000 up to date and the
end is not yet. We are informed
that they now have force of 100
teams and a large gang of men at
work in the hope of completing
the entire system in the course of
the. next thirty days.-Alamosa

FAVORABLE" BALANCE

For more than a quarter of q
century our statesmen have boasted
of favorable balance of trade,
while England has boosted of an
adverse balance.
The Philadelphia Post has the
following explanation:
sour foreign trade in 1910
amounted to about three and a
quarter billion dollars, and exports
of our own goods exceeded imports
of all goods by about a quarter of
billion. This favorable" bal
ance is quite satisfactory. Eng
lands foreign trade during the
year amounted to upward of five
billions, and imports of all goods
exceeded exports of her own goods
by more than billion. This lad
verse; balance was quite satisfac-
tory also. What the figures mean
is that we owed the world for in
terest, freights and 80 on about a
quarter of a billion, which we had
to pay by exporting more goods
than we imported; while the world
owed England for interest, freights
and SO on about a billion dollars,
which England collected by inn
porting more goods than she ex-
ported, Generally speaking,
favorable" trade balance means
simply that the country is in debt
and must meet its obligations by
selling abroad more goods than it
buys; while an adverse" balance
means that the country is credit
or nation and collects its rents
from the world by taking more
goods than it sells.

THE RECALL

No desire or purpose 10 inter
fere with legitimate judicial func-
tions has or ever will inspire any
popular demand for Recall for
judges.
But vested with political power,
80 that their decisions may repeal
laws made by the people and make
laws to which the people are OPP
posed, they become absolute gov
ernors of the Republic. In that
capacity they must he subject to
all the safeguards agai, st the
despotism that always springs from
concentrated power, to which any
other political department of re-
publican government is or may be
subjected. Every public servant
whom the people are competent to
elect, should be subject to their
recall.
