THE WILD WEST MOVING EAST

The good old methods Of the wild
Western bandits have become passe.
In the best highwaying circles, the
fast mail is no longer held up in
the mountain Businesses and the ex-
press and mail cars looted by a pic
tureseue gang that hurries away to
q cave. It's too easy for the posses
to find their cave. Nowadays, they
hold up the night express on the
outskirts Of a big town--the bigger
the better-take what they want,
make their getaway preferably in
aristocratic looking motor cars, and
lose themselves In the city's throng.
The wild West has been tanned,
but the wild East is no less pictur-
esque and amusing. It has discov-
cred that the Businesses of a city
afford better ,seclusion than the
wastes Of the sparsely inhabited
West. An automobile devastating
the speed regulations In the out
skirts Of a town is so common a
spectacle that nobody thinks Of any
worse offense than a. violation Of
municipal regulations. It gets away
to safety before anybody in par
ticular realizes that anything has
happened.
The "bad man" of the olden days
in the West has disappeared; but we
have, with US the gunner gangs Of
super-civilized metropolis, trans
acting the same sort of business.

THE NEW DYRsTUrrs INDUSTRY

That the United States is even
now able to supply three-fourths Of
the dyestuffs It requires, and that a
year hence it will be able to pro-
vide the entire amount, is the state
ment Of a Government authority,
DR.. Charles H. Norton, who has just
completed study Of the aniline sit
uation in this country. It is at once
one Of the most surprising and, one
Of the most gratifying testimonies
to the capacity of this country to
take care of itself. Only few
months ago there was a Macedonian
cry for help lest our textile manu-
features perish for want Of dyes.
Now the dyes are being produced.
Independence of y foreign supplies
will be achieved, it seems, before
the end Of the war will be in sight.
At any rate, that independence is
in sight, and peace is not. After the
peace comes, there will be struggle
to conserve what shall have been
gained. The German dye syndicate
will lose no time inaugurating the
most bitter competition, as has been
its wont in the past, in the effort to
prevent development Of. rival and
competing dye businesses. Produc-
ton in Germany is cheaper than
here, and there will be the most in
sistent need to give American in
dustry ample protection II 1t shall
survive the assault that will be
leveled against 1t. u. .t, ~,.%
DR.. Norton states that before the
war this country was producing
about 5000 tons of aniline dyes a
year, and requiring about 10000
tons. A single company is now
building plant with capacity to
turn out half tie country's require
ments. This means, when added to
the outturn that DR.. Norton reports
is already secured, that there will be
presently surplus for export; and
there Is every reason why the de-
velopment Of an export trade should
be encouraged in all possible ways.
The textile making countries of the
old world are anxious to be emanci-
pated from German control in this
line; they have no. time or means to
undertake such development as is
going on in the United States. They
will be disposed to turn hither for
their supplies If this country can fur
nish them. Thus the need Of every
encouragement to expanding foreign
trade in this line. There is here the
most specific demonstration of the
Importance of a wise and liberal
| policy encouraging foreign trade ex-
pansion; and that policy will be in
sured by the restoration Of the Re-
publican party to national control.

SOUTH WILL CAST
MANY HUGHES VOTES

An extraordinary detection on the
part OF Democrats in the South from
the camp of President Wilson Is
claimed in a statement issued by the
National Hughes Alliance. giving the
results of a coupon canvass through
out the Southern States. The state
ment says, In part:
"a great deal of evidence rapidly
accumulated to show that the ENROLL
ments were not merely from the
small proportion of the population

represented men In all walks OF life,
from the highest to the lowest. Par
ticularly striking was the response
from substantial business men-bank-
ers, manufacturers. wholesale and re-
tail merchants, officers and employees
OF railroads, insurance and real es-
tate agents, and farmers were repre-
scented In. large number, "
Many Explain Stand.
MANY of them were accompanied by
letters from lifelong Democrats. who
felt II necessary to explain why they
were supporting Hughes In this cam
paign. Many OF these reiterated their
faith In the Democratic party. but in
sisted that President Wilson had be-
trayed his party. Many Indicated also
that their vote Tor Mr.. Hughes would
be the only point at which they would
separate from their party, and that To-
cally they would vote the Democratic
ticket, N..

 Music and general sociability con 'ributed to the enjoyment of the occas ion. Much interest was aroused in the announcement of several romances which have had their inception since the heginning of Leap Year.
 College musicians rendered numer- ous 5alivNtful selections. The young a~tists were received with great en- tNrsiasm and responded to encores in distinctly pleasing manner. Among the singers were the Misses Geraldine Stone. Elizabeth Stamper. Mary Uren. Nartha and Teacoza McReea and Stanley Goudge. Among the songs ren dered were chinatown, My Chins-

TENNIS TOURNEY FOR BORDER STATES WILL
 CONVENE IN TUCSON
Aspirants for Championship Honors will Take Part In Contests On Feature Pro- gram from May 10to 14.

Tennis enthusiasts in the Warren
 District will be interested in the an nouncement that the dates for the BoI der States championships to be played on the Country Club courts at Tucson
 have been settled on. They will be May 10. II. F. 13. and IA. The events will be mems singles and doubles. vel.
 eran's singles and doubles, women's singles. junior singles and consolation singles. Prizes will be presented for the winner and runnerup in each Q
 vent, except consolation singles, a prize for the winner only being offered in this event.
 Entries for the matches are already beginnine to come in: J. B. Adoue. Jr. of Dallas, Texas, and champion of that state, has signifled his intentions of be ing here: Phil Lynch. veteran of the game, and Fraser-Chalmers, old time fldTNdIu CndiuplOll. Nlilc AIdl they are practicing faithfully, and will be here in full force to represent Tyrone, New Mexico.
 Of those who have entered thus far, Adoue looks best on form, and will probably be the most enigmatical of all for the border states men to solve In all of the championship matches that have been played during the last few years in the southwest in which he has entered, he has been danger ous competitor. and on one occasion he made the trip to Chicago to fight for the western championship.
 A feature of the Border States tour nament will be the junior matches in which the younger members will have an opportunity to determine who is chanpion among them. Prizes are be- ing offered for each one of the events on the program, and the competition promises to be keener than ever. It is expected that no less than 100 players will be entered before the day for the arrives.

BETTER THAN CAL0MEL
Thousands Have DiscoveredDr. Edwards Olive Tablets are
 Harmless Substitute

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi- tute for calomel-are mild but sure laXa- tive, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. They are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets.
 These pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. S
 Ii is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take it's place.
