A hen in cold storage for eight
cen months is what makes for strikes
and the generous use of dynamite by
those who have the courage of their
convictions and, thus. express their
feelings about it. Many of US feel
that way about it but sit on our
spines and let 'er go at that. The
profiteer knows this and he buys an
other car with twelve more cylin-
ders in it. The cold storage idea is
alright but the stuff going into it
should show a date mark and also a
time limit as well. A government
inspector should make daily tours
of the storage plant and when the
time limit has expired on the stored
stuff, order it sold. They will be
using embalming fluid next and many
of our children will die of old age
and never even know what a "drum-
stick" is.

In these days of art and science
and human uplift, we would suggest
to the fiend who made an auto horn
to sound like the raucous shrieks of
a prehistoric troglodite fight, that
he now adopt the talking machine
record and instead of the blood
curdling blast to warn jaywalker
to get to the cement that he make a
record that when a warning is to be
givn there will come from the horn
given there will come from the horn

and we hope some Ely inventor will
be the first to remove these nerve
racking honks that parylize ones
legs and causes the goosefiesh to
punch holes in our unders. The un-
earthly squawks emitted from many
cars is not the best that we can do
along these lines. A reform in honks
is needed.

The American Legion is going to
be a mighty force for good in Amer
lea.
Did you ever stop to realize the
fact that every element that is
against our government is organized,
while very element that is for the
government is unorganized?
We need such an organization as
the American Legion. We need it
to preach the doctrine Of pure Am
ericanism; to teach the ignorant that
our form of government is the best
yet devised by human ingenuity.
The American Legion will be com
posed of young and sturdy Americans
of the very best type; young mer
who have seen the glory of the Repub
lie; young men who were willing to
die if necessary in order to uphold
our traditions and our glorious flag

DYNAMITE FOR
CLEARING LAND
NEW STATE LAW NOW ALLOWS
SETTLERS TO GET DYNA-
MITE EASILY.

The new state law relating to the
distribution of dynamite for land
clearing is now operative and we
have been requested to make
the act relating thereto public so that
farmers can avail themselves of the
opportunity to get explosives at
greatly reduced prices and under con-
tract by which deferred payments
can be made to the townships avail
ing themselves of the opportunity to
assist their settlers and farmers. The
act relating to dynamite is as fol-

Congressman johnson head OF the
immigration committee has submitted
a measure to congress that has all
the ear marks of just what is needed
and appears to be about as sane a
measure as any yet produced. Ii
CONGRESS wishes to dc something in
that line and it is the hope of ourself
with millions of others that iron-clad
immigration laws be placed on the
books. the Johnson idea should be
followed out. He would stop all i'm
migration for a period of two years.
This should be changed TO four years.
He then provides that these who come
as visitors or transients can stay but
six months. They mu st register and
report. This will prevent the vel
low races from getting in under one
pretense or another and then remain
ing as aliens. Those who come with
the intention of permanent residence
must dclare this intention and at the
end of eight years must have become
citizens, or be. deported. This limit
of deportation is very desirable as it
will compel citizenship of those who
make this their permanent home. The
measure also provides that the period
of eight years can be reduced to five
years if the immigrant learns to read
write and speak English, to under
stand our system of government and
shows a sympathy and appreciation
of our national purposes. The big
feature of the bill requires that al
aliens who had first papers but with
drew them to avoid the draft, shall
be deported as well as those who left
the country to escape service. In ad
dition to the above measures we
would suggest that all "red fiaggers'
be included and that firing squao
be authorized for dealing with the
professional anarchist.

AS fitting beginning and a term
inal as we'll for the Wilson Highway
from Ely to Ell Paso, Texas, the Com
munity Center building has been sell
ected. Across the road from this
building stands an iron post, one OF
the city's posts composing the White
Way, which now bears the Wilson
Way legend. This is band OF white
at the top about three inches in width,
and below this a blue field foot
wide, then below this another band OF
white of the same width as the one
above. In the center of the blue
field "a CIV" in red shows bright.
The idea was thought out by Pres
ident, H. ]. Merdink of the Wilson
Way. The lamp post will, later. be
further embellished with an elegant
metal sign, it is planned, with hand
or an arrow pointing to the Com
munity Center Building as the be-
ginning and ending of this great. and
long trail. The idea of making the
Community Center the starting and
stopping place of the Way is good
one. We invite everyone to make
use of this building whether Elyans
or Ell Pasons, it is for all to go to and
to make free use of. The designat on
will popularize the place and it will
soon become known over the great,
long route. The first car coming
from Ell Paso will no doubt be hon.
ored and recorded, and it's occupants
banqueted by the Ely Commercial
Club. This car may soon be due
here if other states have equalled or
