During the year 10000 meters were In

This year 10000 new meters have been in

meters under the new schedule Of charges
for January, February and March total

HIGH COSTS HINDER BUILDING.

Less building is going on this
spring than was originally planned.
Nobody is investing in construction
operations unless it is absolutely
necessary. The reason is the high
cost Of material.
This is also true in Lordsburg.
There is need for more structures, no
doubt; and maybe some would like to
build a dwelling or two. But the
high cost of material ION account of
the war is most certainly holding
back his work.
When it costs 25 percent more to
build a house than it did a few years
ago, it is small wonder that those
anxious to build are delaying until
there are more settled conditions
prevailing.
On the other hand, if it is absolute
ly necessary to build, no even high
prices can prevent it. This is the
case in many communities where
manufacturing needs are pressing.
Western liberal. (Lordsburg, N.M.) 1887-1919, 1917-05-18
WAR n S

In contemplating the evils of war
fare, Lordsburg citizens won't forget
that the business life of the com
munity must be sustained, and that
sudden, intensive and unnecessary
economy will produce hardship and
serious difficulties. Go about your
business as before, and be sure to
keep the money in circulation as il
there were no war. Any other method
will make Of LOrdsburg a business
shambles. Don't let a foolish, pan
icky feelin" drive your money under
cover, because that's the surest way
to lose it in the end. Keep the blood
of business circulating as before, so
that the business life of Lordsburg
and the persons who must depend
upon it for sustenance, will not suffer
unnecessarily.
Since we entered the war, the
shock has been light to the business
Of Lordsburg; don't let it get any
heavier. BY buying what you need
now-not holding of-you will help
yourself, your community, and your
country.
Western liberal. (Lordsburg, N.M.) 1887-1919, 1917-05-18
THE MENTAL WEIGHT OF WAR.

" ~ " ~ =
In common with others, the minds Of
the people Of Lordsburg are freighted
with thoughts Of the war. Since the
passage Of the CONSUMPTION bill, many
a mother here has contemplated the
horizon with fear and tremblinE-not
that she feared sacrificing her be-
loved boy to the cause Of her country,
but because no love equals mother
love.
It isn't the question, "Wil Billy
have TO go?" but rather, "Will Billy
ever come back"
And that is a thought no mother
can think without a Juggling at her
heart and a grip in her throat and
tears in her eyes.
Yet LOrdsburg mothers are brave;
they bear up we'll under the ordeal
those who have sons Of military age.
They are sorry that this strife has
come upon US, but hope for speedy
conclusions and a happy return Of
their warrior offspring.
LordsburR is justly proud of It's
youth who are called to the colors,
who in an incredibly short time may
be helping to plant Old Glory above
the ramparts Of captured trenches.
But we also are proud Of the
mothers Of the community who in this
critical moment give more to their
country, if need be, than life itself
all their hopes, ambitions and solace
for the future that is wrapped up in
their stalwart sons.
When we cheer our soldier boys,
don't let's forget their mothers.
Western liberal. (Lordsburg, N.M.) 1887-1919, 1917-05-18
WAR POSSIBILITIES.

The possibilities-nay, the proba-
bilities-of this war as it may affect
Lordsburg are ~stupendous.
We have already felt the effects in
Lordsburg by soaring prices for food
stuffs and the other necessaries of
life, for which the tradespeople are
not 10 blame, but which are the re-
suit Of conditions that accompany
every war.
But that is merely a beginning.
Already there is talk of various in
novations that may affect the life Of
Lordsburg in this manner
Maximum prices for food of all
kinds enforced by a food dictator.
Government operation of the rail
roads as a war measure.
Food tickets.
Government dictation Of the oper-
alton Of coal, iron, copper and lead
mines and the distribution of the ma
terial.
Government dictation in industry.
From this il will be seen that Lords
burg will be nightly affected by
these epoch-making changes, which
are seriously discussed in congress
and which are already in operation in
the b%elligerent countries in Europe.
Warfare Is not what il used to be.
Nowadays the millions not at the
front take a serious part in the fight
ing-not with guns and hayonet, but
by being forced into a systematic, CO.
ordinated, intensively organized in
dustrial and economic fabric that is
as important 10 the nation as the
army in the field and the navy on the
high seas.
