commenting upon such a campaign
says:
If the fireworks makers have the
idea that they can stop the law and

cannot stop the clock Of progress or

new MEXICO PAST,
PRESENT And FUTURE

Ten years ago a tyl al and
appropriate painting of New
Mexico would have been a large
canvas on which was shown a
level plain, backed by low-lying
hills, and the setting sun. Tray
cling a path across the plains
would appear; struggling in
groups of two, three, and half a
hundred long. horn cattle. Dimly
outlined where the sun was
dipping into its nest of gold, the
remainder of the herd would be
gathered. Above these, promi-
nently silhouetted against the
sky, would gallop into view, the
outline of a mucl sombreroed
cowboy.
Ten years ago the above wou'd
have been an ideal portrayal Of
an Eastern New Mexico painting;
but that time was yesterday.
Today how different is the per-
spective! Today as, you gaze
upon the same panorama, you
scarcely catch a glimpse of the
fleeting cowboy, as his form
is swallowed up in the lengthen-
ing shadows of the setting sun.
The struggling cattle which
come prominently into view to-
day are thorough-breds, which
you see scattered about the hun
dreds of small farms. In the
center of this growing aggrega.
ton of numberless farms you
will find, this morning, a3 il
were, a few tents, and as the sur
declines it lights up the windows
of a thousand homes; and this j!
a typical Eastern New Mexico
painting of today.
The big ranch, with its 10i
sections, is passing into the hand
of 100 or more owners, and thest
owners are farmers. The COW
boy who galloped into town yes
terday and rode his horse int
the Yellow Dog saloon, has lai'
aside his polished pair OF forty
five's and hitched his cayuse to
plow. Wonderful indeed ha
been the change! He has con
cluded to follow the advice of tn
Kansas sage, and has found
profitable to raise corn, wheat

son is worth to Troy $4,000. Some
crop, when one discovers that the land
around Troy has never, IN fifteen years,
failed to produce beans, and that they
raise from seven to fifteen hundred
pounds per acre. More than this the
farmers plant their summer fallow to
this crop and get a profit every year,
which is worth consideration. Besides
beans, Troy is an important shipping
point for apples, pears and cherries,
and this industry will show rapid de-
velopment because there is tributary to

unfurled, and the artillery fired a sa-

Evidences of the worth of his work
at the Spokane Apple show to the
whole of Latah county, such as that
published from Pennington in an
other column, are most gratifying to
the editor of the Star-Mirror. This
paper has but one creed, which eX-
presses faith in Moscow and Eatah
county, in their people, and their soil.
1t has but one practice: that of making
every effort in and out of the paper
to build up the community in which
we live; to increase the population,
the crop values and the land values.
To do this, we are giving the people just
as good a little local daily paper as

forts have some value and effect, are
making it possible for us to make a
