OUR NEW PRESS

The Chieftain Job department
has just installed the latest pat
tern of Gordon job press. which
will greatly aid US in the produc-
ton Of the fine quality Of job
printing which this Office is con-
stantly called upon to do.
Ordinarily the addition of a
press to a modernly equipped
printing Office is an event of only
comparative interest, but when
one is installed preparatory to
the installation Of a Linotype,
then the matter becomes of con-
siderable importance to every
taxpayer and citizen of Prowers
county.
Just by way of parens we
will state that The Chieftain was
the lowest bidder for the county
printing two years ago, but was
euchered out of it by a triumvi-
rate of political parasites who
were compelled to pay off their
old debts by this species of politi-
cal chicanery.

TOO MUCH JOHNSON"

VIM. johnson was locked up in
the city hoosegow last Saturday,
charged with disturbance and re-
sisting an officer. Marshals
House and Rydder had some diff
ficulty in making the arrest, and
it is stated that johnson reached
for the marshals gun.
Then the grand scramble took
place and johnson, somewhat
worse for wear, became docile
and promised to be good if they
allowed him to walk to the bas-
tile, which they did.
When brought before His
Honor Judge Smeltzer. the
prisoner was very penitent and
upon his promise to hit the trail
at once the judge made it S. and
costs, and an auto was engaged
for the purpose on the spot.
The marshals, when inter-
rogated, said that it was simply
a case of too much Johnson"
and let it go at that.

The building of this bridge,
while situated in Baca county,
was the result of many COM
plants made to Holly business
men last year, who after exhaust
ing their energy on the powers
of Baca county officials, came to
Holly with their troubles, and
the result was an immediate SUBJ
scription by our business and
professional men of $500 for that
purpose.
The completion Of Bear creek
bridge will go a long way toward
cementing the friendship that
has always existed between Holly
and her southern neighbors, who
have come to like our town as
much as our staunchest boosters.
The Chieftain hopes that the
pleasant relations may continue
to exist for all time.

THE REPLY

There are apples of gold in pictures of
silver. The truth about the unhappiness
of men in marriage is that they bring Il
on themselves by the folly OF their choice.
A man who has q perfectly good taste in
other matters, who ordinarily knows q
pick out fool on a crowded street-oftsn
ups and does it and lives with her for
life. In the progress of his life he is fair
ly civilized, after that one bad break.
But his home is a savage jungle. II he is
poor he breeds poor little savaees, other
wise he breeds little rich barbarians, be-
cause their mother is fool. She is un.
der-civilized. She is not up to his civil.
lied standard; she can't make home as
we'll as he can earn living.
Now all wives are not OF this character.
But the large percentage Of good sense
among unmarried women means some
thing. A lot of sensible women marry
q majority otthe married women are SEN
sible. But large majority of the un-
married women have SO much good sound
sense, that it is easy to see that the fools
have no trouble to get married.
And the fooler the woman, the easier
her job in ropin8 a man. The fact that so
many smart women are unmarried, and
SO many men have married fools and
given the smart women the so.by, speaks
eIoquently of the folly of man at his mat
ing season.
There should be a law to make a man
submit his best girl to general referen.
dunn of his kin-only the trouble would
be that there would be no marrying nor
sivine in marriage-for a while. l..

Editor Holly Chisftain:
No doubt you will think me presum-
ind, but the enclosed clipping, regarding
women and their duty, may explain my
desire for information. Will the author
please explain why the modern man con.
tinues to marry the inefficient woman
when there 10 an army of capable, COM
petent women from which he may choose?
Perhaps the standard is little high for
him, SO he drops to his own moral level
and selects q woman from the "horde OF
ignorant, rattle.pated hussies" for his
sweetheart, wife and homemaker.
II this be true, he should be content
with his selection until he is able to ap-
preciste the difference between the women
of moral strength and courage, loyal to
her ideals of what husband, home and
children should be, and the woman of the
problem novel variety.
A man still controls the right of selec-
-tion, it seems to me much the responsible
ity Of the home rests with him. This 10
not intended as complaint or protest,
but one sometimes wonders about the
other side of the question. beg pardon
for such seeming liberty and trust you
will not use my name publicly.-L. r.

FAIRBANKS PEOPLE
 RETURNING HOME
Are Enthusiastic Over Automobile Road From Valdez to Interior
 and Expect Great Things.

Two Ford autos, carrying eight passengers, left for Fairbanks this morning and the party expect tc make good time over the government road, as weather conditions are re. ported to have improved in the inte- rior with the streams swollen by the rains and glaciers again confined to their banks.
 The members of the party are all oldtimers in the Fairbanks district One of the machines is being guided by G. Shaw, owner of one of the larg- est hotels in interior Alaska. His passengers are Mrs. J. A. Heaiey, wife of a prominent Fairbanks mer- chant, Dan Mccarthy, who has made and lost several fortunes in the north and at present enjoys a co'-pe- tence extracted from the Iditarod and Tolovana placers. John H. Patten. a resident of Fairbanks since 1902, is the other passenger in Shaw's ma chine. Dad" Robinson is guiding the other machine.
 Fairbanks people are beginning to realize the immense benefits to be de- rived from the government road be- tween Valdez and the interior camps and to urge congress making larger appropriations for the work, The old timers, several of whom had not been outside since going to. Fair banks, had failed to realize that they were only four days distant from the coast, and express the belief that scores of autos will find good busi- ness next year between Valdez and the interior.
