1.-THE MOTH AND THE FLAME"

At the Ely theater tonight. The
perturbation of the tense and emo
tional drama, 1.-THE Moth and the
Flame" by Clyde Fitch, presents with
all the realism of life itself the domi-
nant elements of that great stage
success. The poor little moth is
blinded by the flame, until she can
not see the fatal perils threatening
her. Just on the verge of her great
error, her vision returns, and with
the resultant extinguishment of the
flame. the moth sees her danger, and
is saved--terribly scorched in heart,
but with her soul rescued from the
devouring fire.

"YOU STOLE MY PANTS.-

Suit has been filed in the district
court by Felix Greenan against Neil
Boyle. The complaint sets forth that
both parties are residents of this
county and that In December, 1915,
at McGill. Nevada. the defendant,
Boyle, without cause, maliciously and
wrongfully in the presence and hear
ing of a number of persons in a GER
tain discourse which he had with said
persons spoke to and of the plaintiff
the false and scandalous words fol-
lowing:
You stole my pants and money
$4,000"
The plaintiff further sets forth that
at the time of the commission of the
grievance he sustained a good name
and character among his neighbors
and acquaintance for moral worth
and integrity and never was sus-
pencted of a crime of petit larceny.
That in consequence of speaking said
words the plaintiff has been greatly
injured in his good ain and repu-
tation to his damage in the sum OF
100000. No doubt at the trial the
exact words spoken will be of great
importance because it has long been
recognized among the disciples of
Blackstone that a suit cannot be made
out of one pair of pants.

That "he value Of irrigation IN this valley is such
to make water worth all it costs and that the entire

That Certain facts" to which the report calls at
tentiou, shave more bearing development than
project cOSts'
That eff land and water used they should
be- there will be difficulty in paying full project
costs any part of the under cultivation;
That to ignore the benefits that landowners have
enOyed by of increased values since the project
was started would be unfair to both the government
and the public" especially since these increases "have
many instances been double the amount of the project
costs;
That "he greater part Of the lands under the project
are excess lands that must be sod much of this land
was bought for the purpose of making homes, but
for the purpose Of reseng it at profit The prices
are so far above the original cost to make this
serious obstacle to development-more serious than
project costs;
That f the project be reduced now the benefits
will not 20 to the settler but will be appropriated by
the speculative owner"
The report recommends thorough study of the
relative value of different tracts of land and relative
cost to bring them into cultivation that prospective
settlers may be fully informed by the government to
costs Of preparation, and agricultural values.
The report a whole IS essentially optimistic, and
wholly favorable to the Rio Grande project and to
the splendid agricultural promise Of the region It's
are worth careful study.

The logic Of the report Of the central board IN most
Of its conclusions, is its defence; it is irresistible
The facts cited in the report known to every nte
gent observer IN this valley, though some intelligent
observers may not be willing to admit publicly what
they know and to be true 1t is hard to under
stand Why lawyers employed to fight side of
do not care to admit that the other side has any
ground to stand on But that is why ordinary
citizens interested disinterested should blind them
selves to facts.
Among the conclusions reached by the central board
are:
That the whole project cost should be charged against
the land, and that $50 an acre will probably
this cost;
That some Overhead" costs in the Washington
office may justly be eliminated but that the aggregate
is too small to have any practical bearing the sue
failure Of the water user;
That one small item, amounting to Toe acre,
should be eliminated from the cost chargeable to the
land and that 4e other claims for elimination, aggre
eating nearly 100000, should be disallOwed;
That there is nothing in the delays before and
during construction, to justify any rebate upon the
chargeable cost of the project;
That the share already paid by the national gov
eminent behalf of Mexico is adequate liberal,
measured by the share that Mexican lands will have
in the actual division of the stored water;
That drainage investigations and construction be
suspended, and not resumed until complete plan
be agreed between the government the water users
associations, and the individual land owners; that
drainage should be assessed against the districts lands

proper development of the valley lands is the suggestion
that the government purchase the unused lands and
settle them up under system Of organized aid and
direction such as exists in Australia giving the settlers
long time and low rates of interest in paying for land
If this DONE" the report concludes, settlement
would be immediate; there would be no question as
the prosperity of industrious settlers, or the in
ability to repay project COSTS and it would give Op-
portunties to ambitious, industrious families Of small
capital that are practically denied them"
1t might be added that such plan would quickly
hqudate lot Of bank and trust company capital now
tied up in loans unused lands, and lot Of private
capital represented by unused lands held in private
ownership by waiting simply for speculative profits
to accrue from the effects of development work ac-
compshed by Others It would enable several thousand
families to establish their homes in the valley and to
pay their way. The net result would be the immediate
and substantial profit and prosperity Of the many.

The analysis of the Rio Grande valley land and
farm situation made in the report is so searching
and informing that every FL Paso business man should
carefully study the report necessary part Of his
education In very many matters of important detail,
the report of the central board follows lines precisely

of times in the past both to opinions and as
to interpretations of facts
Generally speaking, the final report Of the central
board bears in every essential particular the views
expressed by The Herald at the time the local cost
