not believe for moment that America
al We know 1t today, is an offspring OF
British institutions, I believe she has
a character and genius OF her own.
Discovered after centuries Of life had
been granted to the nations OF the
European continent, the lifting Of the
veil that concealed her, a feat that was
accomplished by the intrepid genius Of
Columbus, had in 1t the providential
promises Of new future. That provi-

Americans first-not in any spurious
sense, but In the real meaning OF the
term conscious Of the high vocation
to which We have been called as the
crusaders Of new era, in which the
rights Of man occupy the foremost
place and the peace Of the people is
put before the pecuniary advantage OF

Upon Congress devolves the high
and noble duty to find some way to
lead the country to these higher ideals.
There is no nobler work to which the
representatives Of free people may
set their hands. May the collective wis
dom OF this Congress find for us the
way Of safety and Of honor that leads
TO national rectitudc and moral gran

PROGRESS MINING COMPANY

Charles F. Hanson. manager
of the Progress Mining Co.,
whose property is located in the
Steeplerock district, close to the
Carlisle and Utter mines. reports
that work in sinking the shaft is
progressing nicely and although
only a depth of ten feet has been
reached, the indication for good
paying ore is already strong.
The shaft is being sunk on the
Carlisle vein and at this depth
the same matrix was encounter
ed in which the Carlisle ore
occurs. Samples were assayed
and found to contain chalcopy-
rite. The ore is close grained
and gives evidences of carrying
high mineral value with depth.
The property is we'll located, the
shaft being about 400 feet from
the Carlisle workings.
The company has appointed
Jas. V. Parks and L. A. Hohstadt
as it's legal agents for handling
its stock sales. The company is
capitalized at 81, 100000. 90, par
value $1.00 per share. Shares
are selling for twenty-five cents.

FIRE PROTECTION?

I'VE don't need fire protection
says Old Man Wait. He reminds
us of the man whose house had a
leaky roof. When it rained, he
couldn't fix it, and in dry wealth
err. it didn't need fixing. That
seems to be the situation in
Lordsburg. Old Man Walt, of
this town, actually had the auda-
city to make the opening remark
of this paragraph to the Editor,
after the rain Monday night and
Tuesday. Every town has an
Old Man Wait, and the only fear
that Lordsburg hustlers have is
there may be too many of them
in L%ordsburg, who combined with
the Indifferent ones, will defer
fire protection until too late.
The terrible fires in FL Paso and
other places ought to be a warn
ing to us. If we should find half
the town burned to the ground
some morning, then every in
habitant would not rest until ade-
quate protection was afforded.
Sometimes it takes a definite if
awful, example to make people
open their eyes.

BOOsTM DON'T KNOCKM

Smile, and the world smiles with
you:
Knock, and you go alone:-
For a cheerful grin will let you in
Where the Kicker was never

Smile and boost, boost and

make any town. AND LORDS
BURG is NO EXCEPTION.
One knocker in atown will ruin
it. if allowed to run wild, just as
one rotten apple in the barrel will
spoil the lot if not removed. A
few days ago, a man stepped in
to the Liberal office. He is one
of the Boosters of the town, with
a capital B, he was all out of
breath. This man said, What
do you suppose ! have found? /
was up to the IS mine this morn

a visitor / learned that we have
a knocker in this town." Great

about it. well. in the CONVEX

ished, to reply at once, but
hnanK managed to ask him what

found out the name of the said
resident, there would have been
a fight to the finish. OF course,
| explained to the stranger, and
convinced him of the untruth of
his former beliefs. To think
that there is anyone in this town
with the audacity to malign as
healthy drinking water as any in
the country. Why that is one
of our strong boosting points. ="
We let this speak for itself.

PIrMPKIN HILL ITEMS

SLICK DBADBEATs SPIDER DEAD
The old pet spider that has
been spinning webs in Slick
Deadbeat's store for the last 80
years died Monday. This will
be a great shock to the citizens
of Pumpkin Hill, who spent many
a day sitting on the nail kegs in
Sticks store and watched the old
spider spin its lines from one
end of the building to the other.
Slick knew that the little critter
was the scource of much amuse-
ment to his customers and at
tracted them to his store most
every rainy day when they would
watch the spider all day long and
keep Slick company, who other
wise would have died from lone
someness long ago. Slick had
things so arranged in his store
that the spider never had to risk
it's life making big jumps The
little spinner would start its web
on Sticks molasses barrel on the
counter and then head for the
tomato cans across the aisle.
Here she covered up the pickles,
stuck a few webs on the overalls.
and headed back to the yellow
cheese. From the cheese she
went over to the stove polish.
spun around the night shirts
hanging under the ceiling and
turned back to the primes. She
would go over this route so often
during the year that many times
Slick lay awake all night worry
ing what he would do if some of
his customers should ever happen
to ask him for something in the
store, as Slick knew we'll enough
he couldn't get it off the counter
without tearing down the beauti-
full webs and making the little
spider do it all over again. But
Slick has been lucky, as he said
that during the last three years
nobody ever asked him for any,
thing, and when he did expect
some buyers he would lock the
door and make them believe he
wasn't at home. Slick is all put
out over the spiders death, which
was caused by a prune falling on
it. He says he reckons he will
have to hunt around for another
one somewhere, as that is the
only way TO make the store bust
ness a snap. What's the use of
living anyway if you can't haue
a snap. Slick says, and all of us
can't be turtles.

The bureau OF naturalization an
nounces that there now are $50 cities
and towns where the public schools
are conducting night classes for citi-
zenship candidates whose names are
supplied by the bureau. The organi-
zation of these classes only began last
autumn, and the progress made is
most encouraging. The plan Of educa-
ton should be stimulated by local In
terest. Each community must do its
share in support II the work is to be-
come a permanent and thoroughly eff.
fective institution. The next step
should be to provide training for ma
tive-born citizens. We hope the day
will come when it will be- compulsory
for all American youths between the
ages Of sixteen and twenty-one to at
tend schools in citizenship.

in the district and is working
a good sized force at the present
time on property adjoining the
