StOD BOOSTING

Colonel B. B. Spencer, our big
sawmill friend of Eastview. was
in town yesterday and visited
the wigwam of the local news
paper, How is it for crops out
your way, Colonel?" "Oh, l
never saw anything like the
crops that are growing this year
and have been here nearly thir-
ty years. The fact is, very few
people realize the wonderful
fertility of our soil. The valley
began to settle just at the begin
ming OF one Of the most wide
spread and disastrous drouths
ever known in the Uuited States
to people now living, and yet we
see here on every hand crops
this year that will make Kansas
Oklahoma and the Texas Pan
handle pull down their signs.
Now, it would be only sheer non
sense to Eoast that our sister
states have no rich lands. What,
then, is the reason that we can
outstripsthem in crops two years
out of three, and that we are
getting some of their best far
mers, andamay get..Eall of their
best farmers after this year? 1t
is this those:places are in what
is geographically and officially
designated as the cyclone, storm
hot wind and grasshopper zone,
four ruinous, periodical vista
tions there that are entirely un-
known to US here, and wouldn't
be at all surprised to see imm;-
grants pouring into Estancia
Valley this fall on every train.
Furthermore, I would not care to
exchange one acre of land here
for two in place where | could
not guess which would strike me
first a cyclone, scorching hot
wind or grasshopper bigger
than a mastodon giganteus.

PLUMBERS
ON STRIKE IN
ALBUQUERQUE

AlbuqlerqueN. NJ, June l.
Members Of Albuquerque Local
No 412, United Association Of
Journeyman Plumbers went Out
on a strik last evening at &
O'Clock. The master plumbers
affected are: LII. Cox, Cres-
cent Hardware Company, Stan
dafd Plumbing and HeatingCom
pany, Morgan & Drummond, j.
I, Bell, Sanitary Plumbing &
Iiea,iag Company, Whitney
Hardware Company, Deeman &
Ayers and A. L. Staehlin,
D. A. Smith was the only one
of the master plumbers who
signed up the new schedule, de-
manded by the union. II. G,
Fincomb intimated today that he
would sign before 5 o'clock this
evening.
The members Of the union said
today that their contract expired
yesterday. They demanded an
increase in wages from four to
five dollars per day and a closed
shop. They claim that they no
tilted the master plumbers sixty
days ago that they would de-
mand changes in the contracts at
the expiration Of the old ones.
We believe, they continued, that
the new schedules and demands
are just.
The master plumbers, when in
terviewed today, said there was
nothing to say. Several Of the
shops have gotten along nicely
with non-union help, and we DO
not anticipate any delay in carry
ing out our contracts which we
have on hand. We are prepared
to replace all men who have
walked out with non-union labor
ers, If necessary.
