KNOTTY PROBLEM FOR
 FARM LOAN BOARD

AMARILLO, Tex, Nov. 21.-Are cattle an agricultural crop? This was the lnottiest problem encountered by the federal farm loan board which heard farmers from three states here today urge that farm loan bank be located in Amarillo.
 "That is something we will have to work out" replied Commissioner Geo. rge W. Norris to the New Mexican farmer who enquired. "You have raised a question that this board will have to study and that is just what does cultivation mean"
 What the commissioners said were the biggest crowd that has attended any of the meetings since the hearings began today came from Oklahoma, New Mexico and Northwest Texas.
 So large was the crowd that when the 800 seats in the federal court room had been filled and several hundred were unable to get in, Commissioners Quick and Lobdell conducted an over flow meeting in another building.

COOPERATIVE BUYING
 NEW MOVE BY UNIONS
From oatman Section Daily Birer)

From Oatman Section Daily Birer)
 The Oatman Central Labor Union, which is an afiliation of all Oatnan Unions, has completed the Orga1iza- ton of a Cooperative Buying Assoc iation, and w. E. Burton has been selected as manager of the association and he is now on the coast arranging for the first fve-car shipment of groceries to Oatman. The Unions make the assertion that the cost of living has advanced thirty five per cent in the past year and that the advance in wages has been less than twelve per cent. The services of a mathmatician is necessary to ascertain how the wage earner is to make ends meet much longer with the steady increase in cost of living. This ques- tion bothered the Union heads for months before they decided upon the plan of a cooperative buying associa- tion.
 The association is financed by it's customers and the, customer is every body who wishes to avail themselves of the opportunity which the associa- tion offers in buying and delivering. The manager of the association will call on the consumers monthly and take their orders for any amount of provisions. He will collect the amount of the order and same will be de- livered within the month.
 The only advance in selling price over the wholesale price will be ten per cent which will pay the expenses of the manager and local deliveries. The manager is bonded in sufficient amount to the Central Labor Union to cover any shortage that might occur in his accounts. Inlthis manner the unions of Oatman expect to cut the cost of staple groceries twenty-five per cent. Should the plan prove sue cessful it will likely forestall a de- mand of higher wages in the district.

MARKED SHORTAGE OF
 DWELLINGS IN NORWAY

CHRISTIANIA, Nov. 2.-The short age of available dwelling houses, with still more serious prospects for the winter, is reported from various places in Norway. In certain districts city authorities have resorted to extreme measures to provide shelter for those unable to find houses. The city council of Bergen has begun to appropriate unoccupied houses, but the number of these is inadequate. The oldermen of Trondhjem have requested authoriza- tion to appropriate not only vacant houses, but also clubrooms and similar localities. The Christiania authorities are considering the appropriation and use as dwellings of taverns and even places devoted to religious gatherings.

TIE VOTE FUR SHERIFF, IS
 NEW ISSUE
From Tuesdays DaIl, MinerI

A dead heat was declared by the board of supervisors in the count of the recent election of sheriff.
 The tabulation of the votes cast at the general election instead of settling the uncertainty of who shall fill the office of sheriff for the next two years, simply complicates the matter, J. N. Cohenour and J.. W. Prisk having tied for the place by a vote of S8S each. The two men were the only ones on the tickets to have been kept in doubt and the official count keeps them still on tenter hooks.
 This is the first time, we believe, in the history of the county that a tie vote on any office has existed, all though many officers have been de- clared elected by one vote. Just what will be done in the matter will have to be decided later, but it is probable that a recount of some of the precincts will be asked for by one or the other candidate.
 The board of supervisors met yes terday morning, but owing to the fail ure of the Grand Gulch returns to arrive, the board wired to that place and ascertained that no polls had been held there. It was afternoon before the counting commenced and the finish of the count was not completed until late in the evening. No effort was made to complete the total tabulation, except on that of governor and sheriff.
 The count showed that Governor Hunt had gained 38 votes over the reported total as received by the Dem- ocratic county committee, and on which the vote of the state was pre- dicated in the recent tabulations. As Campbell was reported to have but 40 votes over Hunt the majority will be clipped very close by the Mohave county returns. Hunt has a majority of 684 over Campbell.
 Tomorrow the Daily Miner will give the totals of all the officers voted for in this county.

LABOR ORGANIZATION
 ID JOIN FOR 8-HRS.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 21.-Eforts to effect an afiliation between the American Federation of labor and the railway brotherhoods received a de- cided impetus today when the fedora tion convention here received speeches by the four representatives of the brotherhoods and President Gompers, of the federation, favoring such ac- tion.
 Leaders of the organizations tonight were preparing to inaugurate joint fight for better working conditions, particularly for railway workers of . all classes and against all compulsory arbitration measures just as though an official affiiation had been per fected.
 Both sides entertain high hope that they will be able to gain much during the coming session of congress and in preventing the breaking down of pres ent favorable labor laws by presenting a united front. They believe, too, that official afiliation only awaits certain formal steps to be taken by the brotherhoods at their next convention, to be held some time next year.
 Other than to say that they would oppose all sorts of compulsory arbi- tration bills in congress, the speakers were rather indefinite today as to what they expected to do for the great mass of railway workers. Federation leaders, however, said the primary object of the proposed affiiation is to bring about a universal eight-houl day.
 Brotherhood leaders left here after the meeting undetermined as to what their next step would be.
 William G. Lee, Warren s. Stone and L. E. Shephard of the trainmen engineers and conductors, returned tC Washington and w. S. Carter, of the firemen, went to New York. Lee, who made the principal address sought tC make it plain that the brotherhood were not coming to the federation tc obtain help specifically for their ight against the railroads over the Adam son eight-hour day law. He declared that the brotherhoods were willing tC assume all responsibility in that struggle but he held that the time had come when it was to the interest of all railway workers to unite fol their mutual advantage.

PANAMA WILL PAY
 INDEMNITY CLAIM MADE BY THE j. $.

PANAMA, Nov. IA bill in the na tional assembly of Panama to pay SIP, $50, gold, to the estate of Ralph W. Davis of Los Angeles, killed in a riot on July 4, 1912, when Panama police fired with rifles on unarmed Americans, and to settle other claims of Americans wounded at the time, will apparently settle, after four years what has been a touchy matter be- tween Americans and Panamans. Indignation ran high among the Americans on the Canal Zone at the time of the tragedy, and this was not palliated by the failure of the Panama authorities to press investigation and take action against guilty parties. The belief has been widespread that the assault on the Americans found subsurface favor among the Panamans and the delays in getting action by pressure from the United States caused many expressions of disgust and lack of faith in the Governments inclination to protect Americans.
 It was in the investigation of this case that Judge Demosthenes Arose mena of the Criminal Court delivered an opinion which was an harangue against Americans and their soldiers, and found that one of the Panaman police was at fault. This one had been dead a month at the time the opinion was delivered. This action on the part of Judge Arosemena was one of the circumstances prompting the American Minister to protest recently against his appointment as Attorney General.
 By persistence the American Min ister caused the Panaman Government to admit the fault of it's police and to promise indemnity. It demanded, however, that the amount of indemnity should not be fixed by the American government, but should be arbitrated. It proposed that one of the diplomats accredited to Panama should act as arbitrator. The United States agreed to the arbitration but not to a local arbitrator. In consequence, agreement was reached to submit the case to the Minister of The Netherlands in Wash ington, who is also accredited to Panama. His award was for the pay ment, in all, of S12,5OO, and the bill has been introduced to comply with his decision. It passed the first read ing unanimously.
 In addition to Davis, who was a civilian, and had recently come into to city from a prospecting trip in Panama, Private Harry Morrisei known also as Maurice. and Morrisseyi of the Tenth Infantry, was killed dying on July g of wounds received on the fourth. Nine other Americans were wounded. In the investigation the point has been raised that Morrise was not an American citizen. This matter has not been settled, but no award for Morrise is included in the decision of the arbitrator.
