THE KNOCK Err.

The knocker crop seems to be n
crop which never fails unless every
sort of u crop on earth is so great
that there is no room for knocking.
When other crops fail to a greater or
less degree the knock crop averages
things up by at once becoming great
enough to equalize conditions by max
ing up in its immensity whateve,
may be lacking in the others.
To knock is the easiest thing in all
the world to do. 1t requires courage
and hard work to build but the veriest
coward, and the lazy man, are natural
ly expert knockers. 1t is as easy to
growl and find fault as it is to breathe.
No builder of things or plans can
do his work without laborious study
but the knocker has only to open his
mouth and start it going and the
performance becomes automatic. No
subject is sacred to the chronic knock
er, he is just as willing to knock ON
the plan of salvation as on the com
mission form of government or the
practice of burning smudge pots in
orchards.
In city any proposed improvement
brings to the surface thrifty crop
of knocks but the lack of improve
ment affords the knocker just as good
an opportunity for the display of his
talents. He knocks on what is, or
because it is not, with equal avidity
and with magnificent impartiality.
To pave Main street, to locate a
site for the federal building, to hold
n charter election, to appropriate city
funds for the purpose of aiding in the
purchase of the federal building site,
to spray the city trees and to grade
the streets, have all been recent sub
jects for the knocker and he has made
good use of his opportunities. All
objections are not knocks, this is just
n? true as that all knocks are not OBJ
Jections. An objection, backed up by
reason and the proposal of n better
plan, is not knock but knock made
without such proposal is unworthy
of the name of an objection. The
objector may be blessing in disguise
but the knocker is an abomination,
the objection may lead to revision
of plan and its betterment but n
knock leads only to town strife, bad
feeling and the utterance of words
not used in polite society.

BROTHER OF DEAD MAN HELD
AS AN ACCOMPLICE IN COX
SHOOTING AFFAIR

Sometime Tuesday night Sam Tru-
by was arrested by the La Plata coun-
ty officials and placed in the county
jail, charged with being an accomplice
in the matter of the attempted assas-
sination of Ike Cox The fact of his
arrest was not made public until this
morning.
1t is generally understood, and not
denied by the officials, that the iden-
tity of the party who shot Cox is now
pretty well established, but no infor-
nation regarding the identity can be
procured at this time as the officers
wish to secure the party before reveal
ing identity.
The best clue which we can get
as to this party is the story told by Il
railroad man who runs on the Farm
ington line. His story is that on Mon
day morning young man, stranger,
went down on the train as far as
iSiSo, IhSiS hc Wdo iiiSt ny HitInDtIS VI
the TRULY family and to him The
young widow TRULY was heard to say,
"We'll meet you in Durango tonight"
The party came to Durango, so this
railroad man says, some time that
day, or evening, and again went back
to Elco on the next mornings train
and since that time he has not been
seen.
Such information as can be obtain
ed leads us to believe that it is only
a short time until the guilty party
will be Appended and in the hands of
the officers but the idea now general
ly advanced is that the work was
done by some enc outside of the list
of first suspected parties.
Cox is reported as doing as well
as could be expected. This may mean
much or nothing. He is man of
splendid physique, has never weaken
ed his constitution by the use of either
tobacco or strong drink and, therefore,
has show for his life even although
wounded almost unto death.

would have today been an inmate of
the county Jail, or in the hands of the
undertaken. We do not wish to CEN
sure any particular official but the
conditions which existed, perhaps we
should say, happened to exist, at the
time of the shooting, and the failure
to capture, dead or alive, the assassin
who could have scarcely hoped to es-
cape after committing the bold deed
