Fair Edition
Published

The Ration Range last Saturday
came out with sixteen page edi-
ton in four sections, in commem-
oration Of the Northern New Mexi-
CO Fair held at Ration the last four
days of this week, which was not
not only a credit to that institution
but to the whole Of Coliax county.
The entire number was well filled
with timely topics Of news and also
advertisements Of merchants.
1t is no easy task to publish a
large paper and seldom do the pub
fishers derive enough remuneration
therefrom to pay for the additional
labor and material which it takes
to make it possible. The Range
is to be commended for doing thai
excellent piece of work.

Dawson Mines
Not Working
Full Capacity

The coal mines at Dawson are
working only about one half the
regular force OF miners at the pres
ent time it IS learned. The closing
down Of operations to certain ex-
tent is due to the lack OF demand
for copper in European countries.
The Phelps-Dodge people who own
the Dawson coal fields are also
large operators OF copper mines in
the southern part of the state and
Arizona, where practically the en-
tire output OF coal at Dawson is
consumed in the smelters. The
copper mines are not working their
full capacities and less coal is con-
sumed causing the throwing out Of
employment large uumber OF coal
miners.

Prices On
Shoes Are
Going Up

The European war is making it
self felt in the shoe industry. Lo-
cal shoe dealers say that they have
been notified by the manufacturers
Of raise Of from FIVE to ten cents
a pair upon footgear, and there is
no telling how long prices will con-
tinue to go up. The person who
has old shoes repaired will notice
an advance in prices before long,
as leather is going upward as fast
as the article manufactured there
from.
Most Of the Cimarron merchants
who handle shoes had their fall and
winter orders in before the war
prices we're projected upon the
country, and have not been oblig-
ed to raise retail prices. The
merchants have been bit frequent
y BY raises in wholesale prices ana
have become accustomed to seeing
their profits diminish. Ii the war
continues iqx long, the public will
be obliged 10 stand a considerable
advance in shoes, is the prediction
Saddles, harness and other articles
made OF leather will 80 up as well.

That the Socialists Of Germany de-
c1ded to cast their lot for war when
1t became certain that Germany. faced
Russian invasion, was the statement
made yesterday by Morris Hil1quit,
who said that the information had
come to him through Socialists by;
way of Holland. ss ss -,
u When it was seen that the general
war could not be prevented he said
"the Socialists decided to fight along
with Germany, rather than risk Rus
STA getting a foothold.t Just at the
time war was declared the Socialist
members Of the Reichstag had a con-.
ference with the German Chancellor
over the menace, OF Russian ascend
yancy. Russia is the most reactionary
power in the world and because Of
the situation created by Russia being
at war with Germany, the Socialist
members Of the Reichstag afterwards
voted for the war appropriation. The
SOCIALISTS are as a matter of principle
opposed to war, but it was a choice
of evils and anything was better than
an invasion by Russia. r. ..... .,

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2s.-while
the Senate, sitting as in COMMITTEES
OF the whole, was considering the
Clayton antitrust bill, Senator AS
hurst, OF Arizona, took occasion to
deliver a; lengthy and vigorous
speech in favor of the labor sections
Of the proposed law. - ). ri:
He declared that it was useless to
disguise, dodge or eVade the one
great question that calls for settle
ment-the exemption Of trade unions
from trust classification The Ari-
IONA legislator insisted that he had
found no record to sustain the posi-
ton of contrary minded people, and
read at length excerpts from the ut
terances of Senators Y Sherman,
George, Hoar, Teller, and others who
protested, during the discussion on
the original Sherman antitrust bill,
that there was no intention to in
clude labor. -, sci

merely to say labor has. the right to
a living and decent wage unless we
supplement that assertion by grant,
ing labor the power to enforce it's
demand for a living wage. When
I use the term living wage / do

bread alone but II mean a wage
which will afford proper food, cloth

vote to the family, to books, music,
philosophy, and. in. general, an; op-
portunity to have sufficient respite
from exacting toll to enjoy some of
the idealistic, aesthetic and spiritual
sides OF life, which adds zest, grace,
and beauty to human existence. ~..
1T has been asserted that it is dan
gerous for laborers to- possess the
power to, compel a compliance with
their dem for living wage. I
reply that such power is indeed. dan
serous-to monopoly, Oppression,
tyranny, avarice, and greed-but is
wholesome to the general welfare
and to public tranquility. Internal
dangers to state need never be ap-
pretended from a general desire and
effort on the part of the creators
Of wealth TO promote their own eff
ficiency,' improve and exalt their own
station, for if laborers were to refuse
to try to improve their own condi-
ton it would be tantamount to their
seeking wantonly their own selfde-
struction.''
