THIS HAPPENED IN THE
 CITY OF NEW YORK

From New York:-The following ar. ticle arrived in yesterdays mail. "A cent for the heather. and dollar to get it to him." was the explanation of the cynic who was asked his mean ing in dropping few coins into the missionary box. We have been so long used to this sort of thing in the name of charity" that most people are either callous about it or regard it as a joke.
 But, when it reappea7s in "chari- tabe" efforts for war purposes, the matter becomes serious, and is much more likely to awaken anger, than mere disgust, contempt or humorous oynicism. The conversion of the heather has been for generations something of a joke to the majority of the people and now, when the Christian nations of the world have jnaugurated a universal mutual throat cutting, it has become a thousand fold more of an imprudent pretense. for even the dullest can perceive that the peaceful heather has been inn intensely raised in the moral scale through the destruction of their own ''civilization" by his would-be civiliz- CTS.
 A bazaar was recently held in this city for the army and navy, and now SaHe have the scandalous result that, after taking in over three quarters of a million dollars, there is just $754, or less than one thousandth of the gross takings, left for the soldiers and sail ors. The heather in alb his blindness never got such a raw deal as this. At the very least, he got a cent on the dollar, but our boys in blue and khaki get less than a cent on $10. It is no wonder that even the rankest of our capitalist press organs are now de- nouncing the charity grafters." Pos sibly this bazaar can show that all over the handful of chicken feed" left was consumed in Legitimate expens- es," but the whole principle of war charity" is simply rotten to the core. The principle is a wrong one, though the intentions may be of the very best. TO 8 greater or lesser extent this re- suit accompanies most charities" and there is not the slightest doubt that they eventually defeat the object aim,

A patent is iniringed by any per. son who makes, uses or sells the in. vention patented without the auth ority of the patentee.
 In patent for a composition oi matter the entire commission of al ingredient avoids infringement. Bul the substitution of equivalents does not, In a design patent the test of infringement is appearance. Il the two designs appear alike, the patent is infringed. On all ques- tions of infringements the. defen- dant's ignorance of the patent is immaterial.
 A license to make implies a right to use or sell, but a license to use or sell does not imply a license for the other rights. Therefore no per. son is allowed to make a patented article, even for their own use, with. out a license from the patentee.

LOCAL
 NEWS

They must have received very important news from Somewhere (probably from the boss) when it was deemed necessary to hastily convene and hold a conference for two hours, last night?
 .s. T. I. i. ss
 The Began H2O Go. had the mis- fortune to lose one of their horses yesterday. One of the teams haul ing full tank get stuck in snow drift and while giving an extra pull one of the tugs carried away. Jim tied the team to a telephone pole, and hiked to the barn after another tug. When he returned he found that one of the horses had suddenly passed away. Presumably heart failure was the cause of it's death.

initiative" which even in business not infrequently appear as grafters. These things masquerading as charity should be superseded, even if it be- comes necessary to have general "con- scription of wealth" to put an end to them. Conscription of wealth may be ''socialistic" prehaps, but compared with what is taking place under the prostituted name of charity" is de- cent, dignified, and honorable. Our soldiers and sailors are serving the na- tion it Is the duty of the nation to supply all their needs, instead of per- hitting private persons, who may be grafters of the vilest kind, to supply hemselves-through this deficiency on the part of the government-under cover of charity

need. Uncle Sam taxing railroad and theatre tickets, raising postage rates, levying on income and "excess" profits may seem at times an onerous and op- pressive figure, but he is a million times more dignified and worthy of respect than the best of the war char ity promoters. The margin of honesty is well in his favor; there is reason for believing that practically all he collects goes for the purpose for which it is collected and that the expenses of collection are kept down to the ut m ost. But with the other method there is no guarantee whatever.
 The government should not only do all this work, but do more of it than it is doing. With the nation in a life and death struggle there is no time for puerile charity" method. Even if they did not usually fatten grafters, they are more than usually despicable and contemptible at such a time as this, and utterly unworthy of a great and powerful nation.
 The government should at once abol- ish this function. It is no time for f'private enterprise" and individual

BUTTER

Our Alberta pickled butter is especially chuIned for us and is made from clean, pure and whole some pasteurized cream. In fact other buyers must wait and go without until our orders are filled.
 The Consolidated Creamery Co.,, of Ellensburg Washington, is a CO., operative institution of the farmers of that vicinity who have success fully marketed their products in this way for Several years and in this manner they have been able to give the public as direct as possible the best butter fresh and unmixed at a better profit to themselves and less to the consumer. Our price per 2 pound brick $1.S5.

BUTTER, EGGS AND POTATOES

We have in stock the same grade of Butter, Eggs and Potatoes that the other stores carry and we will sell them at the same price or less in some cases. But, in addition to the common grades we have exerted our utmost to be able to offer something better, not necessarily cheaper. Our effort was product i've of the following result.

ed at, for tn average citizen is likely to button up his brooches pocket, hav- ing no assurance that what he gives in charity" may not turn out to be merely financing some fat grafter or bunch of grafters. It now seems as if the incident we have mentioned will ultimately find it's way into the crim- inal courts.
 Money must be found for the war, of course, and it is the business of the government to do so, for all purposes. The soldiers and sailors should not be dependent upon private charity for one cents worth of things they

-Four bridges between here and
Santa re, on the Canine Real, or

the arroyos, which at this time are
perfectly dry. One bridge was washed
out between Belen and Socorro The
road from San Marcial to Las Cruces

days are expected to elapse before
this road will be passable except I'M

Springerville is good. There are no
bridges gone on the road from here to

is in good condition. and tourists viii!
find this route better travelling than

C. OF C. is WORKING
TO GET ARMY HOSPITAL
LOCATED IN DUKE CITY

The Chamber of Commerce is
working assiduously to get an army
recuperation hospital located here
An effort is being made to learn just
what the government is looking for.
Yesterday a letter was addressed to
Architect George =. Hill of Albu-
duerque, who is now engaged in sup
cruising the erection of military
convalescent hospital at Prescott
Ariz. The fact that the government
is building one at Prescott shows that
the advice received here from Wash
ingtOn to the effect that the govern
ment was only seeking plants which
they could purchase was erroneous.
Mr.. Hill, through his first-hand con-
nection with the project. will be able
to supply valuable information as to
the best way for Albuquerque to
present her qualifications.
No word has been received by the
Chamber of Commerce from the hos
pital commission, last reported at
Spokane. WaShn.

QUAIL HUNTERS GO IN
SEARCH OF GAME TODAY

quail hunters are out today in force,
as the season opened this morning and
it is expected that many of the local
hunters will get their quota of frds,
which is twenty for every twenty -four
hours.
Birds are very plentiful in some por-
tons of the state and the Game Pro-
tective association is urging the hunt
ers to use good Judgment and com
mon sense in killing quail this year.
Some states in the union have put
the quail on the song bird list on ac-
count of the scarcity of the bird. These
states once were noted for their fine
hunting grounds, ard it was on ac-
count of the carelessness of the hunt
ers that the season for the quail was
closed.
The quail have suffered somewhat
from the drouth together with the in
roads that the predatory animals have
made on the eggs and the young, but
careful shooting will insure an AIDE
quate breeding stock for the coming
year,

DEATH WARRANTS NOT
SIGNED BY GERMANS

With the British Army in Belgium,
oct. "a (by the Associated Press. y
An inspection of numerous German
posters in Belgium discloses that
wherever the death penalty for offenses
by civilians was exacteC, no signatures
were attached. 1t is therefore conclud-
ed that no German commander was
willing to take an individual RESPONSE
bility for such orders, possibly fearing
consequences in the future
This was especially the case in
BruGes. In addition to the visible evil
denCe, it was testified TO by M.
EcheVin, one of the aldermen, who at
tended the execution of Captain Fry
att the master of the British steamer
Brussels, as the representative Of the
city The alderman said Captain Fry
att bravery locked straight at his fir
ing squad. An hour after his eXecu-
ton an order that he be not shot ar
rived from Germany. The alderman
said that between $1,000 and 10000
marks monthly were collected from
citizens of Bruges as fines.

.|NFL UENZA WORSE
THAN HUN BULLETS
Claiming More Victims Than
Battle Fronts of Europe;
Disease Can Be Avoided.

According to carefully compiled
statistics it is an indisputable fact
that the Spanish influenza epidemic
which is now sweeping all parts of
the country is daily claiming far
more victims than German bullets on
the battle fronts of Europe. Although
civil and military authorities have
succeeded in checking the disease in
some localities, it is growing worse
in others and continues to spread at
an alarming rate. That the disease
can be avoided there is no longer any
doubt, According to leading authori-
ties the powers of resistance of the
human system can be so perfected
that it can throw off almost any in
lection not even excepting Spanish
influenza, which is one of the most
contagious diseases known.
1t is persons who are suffering
from lowered vitality. who are weak
and rundown and who have not the
strength to throw it off who are the
earliest victims. Persons who have
bad colds. who are suffering from
catarrhal troublest or inflammation Of
the mucous membranes are especially
susceptible. as the infamed mucous
membrane Innings of the nose and
throat are an open door to the germs.
This condition is almost always ac-
companied by a weakened condition
of the system.
If you are suffering from any of
these symptoms, nothing on earth
will build you up and strengthen you
like Tanlac. which contains the most
powerful tonic properties known to
science.
This statement is easily proven by
the fact that Tanlac is now having the
greatest sale of any system tonic in
the history of medicine. In less than
four years time over Ten Million Bot
ties have been sold and the demand
is constantly increasing. Thousands
are using it daily for the above trou-
bles with the most astonishing and
gratifying results.
Tanlac increases your strength and
weight and creates good. healthy
appetite for nourishing food. 1t keeps
you physically fit and helps every
organ of the body perform its proper
function in the natural way.
In connection with the Tanlac
Treatment be sure and keep the
bowels open by taking Tanlac LaXa-
tive Tablets. samples of which are in
cluded in every bottle.

GOVERNMENT PARTY
HERE SEARCHING FOR
BLACK WALNUT TREES

Have you a little black walnut tree
in Your home or in your back yard =
If so, the government wants it to con :
vert into gunstocks and airplaane pre-
pellers.
Rafael Zon, in charge of the inves-
tigating department of the United
States forest service, accompanied by
seven assistants reached the city yes
terday and will remain several days. ,
AS there are no black walnut fer
est3, the trees growing here and the re
over the entire country, it is necessa ry
to search out the trees from one end
of the United States to the other. FIX
trame care must also be exercised to
see that the trees are Culled out with
care so the species will not become eX-
tnct. The purpose of Mr.. ION and
party is to locate black walnut trees

hospital in Paris, France. short
time ago a telegram was received

line to let you know that am with
the. Red Cross hospital somewhere in
Paris, France.
ut is just like being at home for
they surely do treat you good. | will
never forget the Red Cross ladies'"
Mrs. Ruiz has eight sons and ne

From Pvt. VIM. G. LandOlfi.
Somewhere in France,
Sept. II, 1918.

Sept II, l9lS.
Dear Brother Ernest:
Your letter of August 14th received
and as usual was very glad to near
from you. | also received several let
ters from home and one from our
nephew, Arthur, who is with the 5Sth
Art. c. A. c. He wrote to me from
La Courtine and he expects to so TO
the front any day. We expect to
move this week to the SWEETEST place
in France on the Mediterranean.
Say Ernest, Uncle Sans boys have
sure got the Germans scared to death.
They made q drive on the 18th of this
month and captured $1,000 men and
"a great amount of material They
are now closing in on Metz, which is
one of the strongest holds the Ger
mans have. They will only have it
a few more days, because L. s. wants
it, and is going to take, it.
There are so many L. S. boys over
here that France looks like the states.
A store house one mile wide and ten
miles long would not hold the stuff
IT, s. shipped over here in this one
port alone; so you can just imagine
how freely the steamers are going
back and forth. All us boys are
talking it over about giving the kai-
ser a New Years call this year. My
idea of the war is that by spring
Uncle Sam will raise the Stars and
Stripes over the biggest tower in Ber-
lin The kaiser is through with his
drives-he couldn't even drive a
horse now.
Say Ernest. I got German Luger
gun which was taken from a Ger
man officer at the front-its a ten
shot automatic and a peach, YOU can
either use it as Il revolver or a rifle,
and | will bring it home for yOu---
it's some gun
| don't know whether the new
draft law is passed or not, but I
think that the men from 9 to IS
are registering now, and say Ernest,
7 can't understand why the young
fellows are waiting to be drafted
they ought to be ashamed to walk
the streets while Uncle Sam is so
husy-why don't they get a job with
Uncle Sam in the busy season, be-
cause in a few months we will he
very slack and nothing doing. The
kaiser will not want any more of
our orders shipped into Berlin by
that time, and we will be forced to
go back home Tell some of the
young Albuquerque boys, if they want
to see France and Berlin, to join us
now, because we expect to hold big
party in the kaiser's dining room on
January LIST, 1919. / know we will
be just as welcome as the measles,
but we intend to hold the party just
the same
Well, Finest. | haven't any more
news of interest to tell you except
that l am in the best of health and
having the best time of my life.
