Stock Interests Against Enlarged
Homesteads.

1t becomes more evident each
day that the large stock interests
of this state, as well as thoes of
other public land states, are
violently opposed to the passage
of liberal $40 acre homestead
law: The same interests were
mildly opposed to the enactment
of the 800 acre law, being very
much afraid that through this
liberality Uncle Sam would soon
become a landless pauper; but
he law was passed, and
tn ousands of people acquired
homes who otherwise would not
have awaited of the bounty of
our paternali tic political Uncle.
These larg stock interests, and
many sma le~ stockmen, see dire
calamities which will follow in
The wake of the enactment of The
FERGUSON $40 acre homestead
bill but this time the calamities
are going to befall the settler
Who is so foolish as to undertake
to make a living OH $40 acres of
arid land. Right here in Chaves
county are many stOckmen who
have grown rich through grazing
stock on the public domain, who
are now urging the passage of a
i w which would be e5ersal Of
the public land policy of the
government. They seem to forget
that the public domain has
always been regarded as the
heritage of homeless Americans,
and that had itnot been for that
policy civilization today would
not extend west of the Father
of Waters
The homesteaders are the
pioneers Of development in ali
the west, and ii New Mexico
ever becomes a thriving. pro-
sperous state, it will have Ia bt
brought about by the actual set
tier. We believe the enactment
of the FERGUSON $40 grazing
land homestead law would be
the greatest factor IN the set
element and development OF
New Mexico of any legi. lalio
ever passed by congress. l.
would bring Thousands of citizens
to the State and maze possible for
them to estahll-E homes ana
contribute toward the building of
one of the greatest states in the
union. During this week we have
talked to several dozen citizens,
business men farmers and small
stockmen, and without a single ex-
ception every one of them endorse
the passage of a law permitting the
demonstrating of $40 acres of land.
1t is the one great opportunity OF
New Mexico to- secure the i'm
migration so much needed. --Hager-

Alaska Coal Leases.
Alaska and its problems is a
progressive study, and the views
of the Interior Department in
refeIenc to coal leases have been
embodied in bills that are now
before Congress. The Geologic
al Survey estimates that there
are 1870 square miles of coal
bearing lands in the territory.
The plan is to lease these lands
in areas of forty acres or null
tiples thereof, but in no event
can any of the big operators &C

since there is a studied patience

policy, Washington has not a.

fiery speeches in Congress.
The Department of Agricul-
lure is trying to eliminate the
danger to cattle from poisonous
plants on national forest ranges.
Of these plants, larkspur. loco
weed, death camas, and water
hemlock are the most poisonous.
Larkspur does the most harm.
because it is SO widely distribut-
ed and is par ticularly bad for
cattle. Ordinarily, horses will
not eat larkspur, and sheep can
eat it without apparent injury.

paign

Washington. Oct. s.-The appearance
OF Representative Palmer. Democratic
candidate for senator from Pennsyl-
vanta, before the senate committee on
privileges and elections today, and
charges he made against the use of
money in the campaign In the interest
of Senator Penrose. caused a charge
in the attitude of the committee to-
wards an investigation, and Ii was
freely predicted after the meeting to-
day that an investigation would be or
dered into the expenditures of the
Pennsylvania primary under the Norris
resolution. The Republican members
OF the committee will insist that Roger
Sullivan's campaign also be inyesti-
gated II the probe of Penrose Ia or
dered. The committee adjourned until
Wednesday. when 1t probably will be
decided whether an investigation will
be ordered
The change was made by Mr.. Pal
mer that fund of $4,000 had been
raised in Pittsburg alone by assess
ments upon manufacturers imposed by
an organization known as the Penn
sylvania Protective union" to be used
to aid the nomination and election of
Penrose.
Mr.. Palmer charged that the union
was organized to promote the candi-
dacy of Penrose and produced letters
TO prove 1t. He charged also that the
Retail Liquor Dealers association had
sent out letters 10 saloonsts through
out the State urging support of Pen
rose. Mr.. Palmer told the committee
that the federal law and the Pennsyl-
vania corrupt practices act were both
being violated and the only way to get
the facts would be to have an inves-
tfEation by a senate committee Mr.
Palmer asked that a number of the
officers of the Pennsylvania Protective
union be subpoaned as witnesses.
