Tragic Death of Boy

A rather meagre report reached Hoi-
ly this morning of the tragic death Of
Elme- Graydon Price, 15-year-old son
of j. ID. Price, dry lard farmer liv-
ing three miles south of Webb.
The tragedy occurred about mid
night last night when young Price with
u number of young companions were
out horse back riding. Prices horse
became frightened and threw him off
against post on the road side.
His body struck with such force that
his neck was unjointed and he died in
a few moments. DIR. Sherman of this
city was Immediately summoned, but
the boy had died long before his ar
rival.
The fatal accident occurred about
two miles east of the Price home.
Funeral services will be held at the
Antioch church near Webb Friday
morning at IL o'clock and interment
will take place at the Antioch ceme-
terry. The deceased is survived by his
parents and brother and sister.-Hoi-
ly Chieftain.

The High Price of Silver

Silver at more than double the price
per ounce in pre-war times seems to
please everybody.
The high price stimulates production
and makes many mining districts high
ly prosperous and industrially active.
If gold were suddenly given double
purchasing power there would be an
universal howl against gold monopoly
Wheat has double purchasing power
and we all feel good about it although
it raises all other food values with it.
Pork and beef will buy two or three
times as much on foot as formerly and
is swelling the farmers bank account.
But national and state governments
are up in arms to bring down the
high prices of meats as criminal profit
eering.
We seem ready to condone high
prices of silver, copper, farm products,
and applaud all increase of wages.
Is it not true that what is good
condition for the silver industry, the
wheat industry, the lumber industry.
is good for all other industries?

Otero county mossbacks a real SHOW

were booked for an exhibition on Lab

their breath away by buying a new

Made u Mistake

President Wilson evidently has Tot
read the constitution he has sworn to
uphold. lie seems to think that peace
treaties are to be ratified on the pub
lie platforms around the country and
he is out hunting for votes there. In
the meanwhile the democratic U. s.
senators, who really have votes, are
deserting him every day. II he had
remained on the job his League of No
tions might not have been SO badly
disfigured.

The Bills Come In.

Now that congress has the Wilson
peace trip bills before it, the members
realize how unjust it was to speak Of
his Initiating royalty. All the money
all the royal families of Europe have
been allowed to spend the past year

for thirty days. No he was showing
