Busying Himself.

A young lawyer in Tucumcari is
busying himself handing out his
cards, and verbally advertising his
those in trouble. As a demonstra-
ton of his ability he cites you to a
case he cleared in Colorado, in which
a man stole two car loads Of cattle,
shipped them to Kansas City and
sold them, being arrested shortly
afterwards, wired for the above ex-
pert lawyer, who on arrival extract
ed $4,000 from his clients shirt,
with a verdict of mot guilty" at the
tine of trial was the result. He al
so relates other incidents equally as
remarkable and concludes by say
ing II use to steal cattle myself and
am on the inside when it IN to
cvading justice.
We do not say he is a typical
lawyer, but it is so often the case
that criminals escape justice by di-
viding their spoils with a lawyer
whose only religion is to get the
dough" regardless Of its faint or
source of emination.

himself before the people in the
light this one does is equally as
crooked as the crook he defends and
deserves the punishment he relieves
the other fellow from. Such a lawyer
is a menace to the country a para
site on the people, and a criminal IL
censed to practice his profession in
the courts where law is supposed to
be enforced. He encourages crime
and lawlessness, and will resort to
any and all means to add to his
personal gain. He will send an in
nocent man to the pen for life. wreck
homes. or take bread from the
mouths of hungry children. He would
convert Heaven unto hell, if possible,
in order to line his pockets with the
filthy lucre. and yet be highly re-
spected.-Cuervo Clipper.

Wheat Crop News and Price

Wheat harvesting is now in full
sway over Curry county. With fav-
CRADLE weather the greater part of
the grain will be cut before the week
is over. Some little threshing has
been done, but not a great deal of
this art of the work of saving the
grain crop will m before
next week, however it is expected
the farmers will not lose any more
time than necessary in getting their
grain threshed and either marketed
or put in the granary. The straw is
exceptionally short this year and it
will lot be an easy matter to stack
grain so that a continued wet spell
would not injure a great deal of it.
G. L. Goodman, who lives five
miles north of town, sold the first
OF this years wheat crop in Clovis
the first of the week. The Clovis
Mill and Elevator Company was the
purchaser and the grain brought s.
per bushel. 1t tested 81 and e
pounds to the bushel and was grad
ed as No. 2. Mr.. Goodman had in
acres of wheat and at the
price be sold the grain at his hand
yielded him $500 per acre besides
what benefit he may have gotten
from pasturing the wheat. While
Mr.. Goodman got IA bushels per
acre this will by no means be the
best yield of wheat IN this section.
1t is said there are plenty of fields
will run as high as 20 bushels.
Speaking of the price the first
wheat sold for, Lester Stone, man.
ager of the Clovis Mill & Elevator
Co., said that while he paid over
three dollars per bushel for wheat
in the spring that the price paid Mr..
500 per bushel, was the

tory of his grain experience for

Fred w. James showed the News
man some extra fine heads of wheat
week from his farm north of
town. He had two punches of wheat
one from a patch grown on some
that was summer fa1lowed
year and the other from his
field. Mr.. James has four acres
Of the summer fallowed late in wheat
and there is a wonderful difference
in the grain raise on this and that
n his other field. He estimates that
one will probably make as high as
twenty-five bushels per acre while
he other will make nearer twelve.
He expects to ave the grain thresh-
ed from this field for seed for his
next years crop.-Clovis News.

here said Nj. Davis. my visit
here is for the purpose of starting
the organization of this work, which
will begin just as soon as we can get
the dredges to carry it on. 1t is the
plan TO put three $4,000 dredges in
the valley. One of them has been
delivered and is being installed in
the vicinity of Fabens, Two dredges
will be placed in the Ell Paso valley
and one in the Mesilla valley. 1t will

Yet the President is forcing this

Livestock ownes leasing on In
dian reservations will not be rcquir-
e. to move their herds and flocks
at this time, which would mean
heavy losses to them and to the ma
ton, although the officials had ex-
pected to move them off at once.
The favorable result OF the contest
over the removal order is largely
due to the splendid work of Sen
ators Ashurst and Smith, of Arizo-
ma, who fought hard for the stock
men. Senator Ashurst happened to
be in a position to be heard on In
dian affairs, and he and his col
league got busy. The New Mexico
representatives were doing all they
could, also. 1t appears that both
Ashurst and Smith are particularly
influential in Washington which ac-
counts for the recognition given
their state.

There is a strong protest being
made against the work being done
by both the state tax Commission and
the New Mexico Taxpayers asso-

two organizations are under the

to throw the burden upon the small
property holder. II is also reported
that a number of the corporations
operating in the state, at least one
railroad comDany and a number of
coal companies. have withdrawn
from the state association because
of the policy Of hunting out the little
