WHERE THEY STAND

Santa Fe, N. M, March "a.
One of the problems that
has come before the fourth
state legislature, and one that
has received a great deal of
attention from the solons, has
been the care of the returning
soldiers. Resolutions have
been passed by both houses,
the still undetermined plans of
some of the departments of
the government were endorsed
free burials were approved for
the soldiers, and many express
sions Of admiration for the SOL
diers and their sacrifices were
made by the members of the
legislature, but when the Dem
ocrats endeavored to tack an
amendment on to the mounted
police bill, giving the soldiers
preference in the appoint
ments to the jobs that would
be open on that force, the Re-
publicans killed the amend
ment with an enthusiasm that
showed exactly where they
stand. The majority party in
the present legislature will do
anything for the returning SOL
diers except give them jobs
that will enable them to sup
port themselves.

ATTENTION, PROSPECTIVE
CLUB MEMBERS

Now that some evidences of
spring are here, it is time to
think about our club work for
this year. Due to the pros
poets of more bad roads, and
lateness of the season, | shall
be unable to see you in time to
enroll you in the poultry club.
This work should be started
Immediately if we are to en-
pect the best results.
A letter has been sent each
teacher in this county asking
them to send the names of boys
and girls in school who wish
to join the poultry club. If
you wish to join, see your
teacher or write to us. We
have also written many of the
poultry raisers asking the
breed of poultry they are rails
ing and price of eggs per set
ting to club members. On re-
ceipt of your name we will
write you, giving the names of
pure-bred poultry raisers, the
breed raised and the price of
eggs per setting.
We would suggest that no
one join the club unless he in
tends to raise pure-bred birds
and will take an interest in the
undertaking. We have some
splendid bulletins on poultry,
besides will give you any per-
sonal assistance possible.
| hope to see you as soon as
possible and talk with you
about the other club projects,
and trust that we have a good
enrolment this year. We are
thinking of shipping in a car
load of well-bred Holstein heif-
ers soon. We should like to
know what you and any read
er of this article think Of such

BERNARD S. RODEY'S VIEW

Every once IN a while L see
editorials and squibs in some
part of our state press, advo-
eating the idea that the west
ern states should now try to
induce the national govern
ment to give to the states the
remainder of the national
public land within their bor-
ders. When l see such propa-
ganda, it makes my "bile" rise.
| do not know or care very
much about other states, but as
to New Mexico, if | had any
power l would prevent any
such foolishness, at least until
the people of New Mexico get
direct primary law, to enable
them to manage their own af-
fairs. worked a quarter of
a lifetime in and out of Con-
gress helping to get and got a
principality of public land for
the schools and institutions OF
our good state. Yet under the
infamous thirty-years sales law

THE FOURTH
LEGISLATURE

CdllCd re, IN. W., MarCn "a
AS the sessions of the fourth
legislature have ended it is
pertinent to review the work
accomplished by that body
and to apportion the praise OF
blame for what has been done
and for what has been left un-
done.
Both parties went on record
during the campaign of last
fall as being pledged to the
strictest economy in the ad-
ministration of the business of
the state. The Democratic
party sought to carry out it's
pledges, and to some extent it
succeeded in checking some of
the most fragrant attempts of
the majority to drive the state
nearer to bankruptcy, but the
overwhelming strength of the
Republicans made many of the
efforts of the minority futile,
and the platform pledges Of
the Republicans were jet
tisoned at every opportunity
and were disregarded from
start to finish. Increased ap-
preparations for everything in
sight were asked by the Re-
publicans, more appropria-
tions were demanded for pro-
jects that had only the most
shadowy claims on the sup
port of the state, and addition
al jobs were created for men,
bers of the party in power
with a recklessness that point
ed to only one aim, and that is
the strengthening of the Re-
publican party and it's mainte-
nance in the saddle. Some of
the legislation passed at the
session that closed last week.
was beneficial and necessary,
some of it was foolish and un-
necessary, and great deal of
it was plainly and openly for
the benefit of some special in
terests.
One of the noteworthy as
poets of the session was that
the Republican party assumed
the reins of authority at the
first of the year apparently
secure in it's position as the
dominant party, and it ended
the session with its ranks split
wide open and with its mem
bers on the verge of open rup-
ture, and worst of all, for the
party, was the growing dissat-
isfaction with the chief execu-
tive and with the methods that
he has adopted in his manage
ment of the affairs of the par
ty and of the state. More
than one Republican sounded
a note of warning of the dan
gers that were beginning to
loom ahead of the party dur
ing the next two years, but
their warnings were mostly
met with a threat OF brute
force when they were not dis
regarded entirely.
1t is the conclusion of politi-
cal experts that the Rerub!i-
can party has shot it's bolt in
less than three months after
taking over the control O. the
state, and that the next two
years must see a thorough
wedding out of the disturbing
elements of the party, and
not the least among those who
are slated for wedding out is
the chief executive, of the
methods he has sought to
adopt, and of the false and
un-American standards that
he has sought to set up for the
state of New Mexico.
The Republicans of the
house repudiated their plat
form pledge on woman sutt-
rage.

Those Senators who are at
tempting to make the League
of Nations a partisan issue will
discover the magnitude OF
their mistake before the time
arrives to fulfill their feeble
pledge to oppose the treaty of
peace, of which President Will
sons proposals will be a part.
They will have learned before
that memorable date that this
insurance against wars and
bloodshed and worldwide suf-

as more than the policy OF a
single party or of a particular
people. They will know that
it is the hope and determine

The Soldier and
The Flower

mo doubt there are various kinds
of bravery" said a HendersonVilIe
man, last summer the country talked
a great deal about the American SOL
diers meeting death with smiles on
their faces, and we felt that this dis
play of courage could never be over
shadowed. Perhaps it cannot, but
lately there has been reason to be-
Iieve it can be equalled, at least. Has
enough thought been given to that
other kind Of courage that bears de-
formity with cheerfulness? This true
incident is only one Of many that il
lustrates the moral fiber that makes
the American soldier 100 per cent
game and grit.
GA trainIoad of wounded for a
southern hospital was met at one of
the day stations by the Red Cross wo-
men, who went through it, giving aid
and comfort.
: Zone, noticing the unusual pallor on
the face of boy stretched out on a
cot, unfastened rose from her breast
and handed it to him. AS the soldier
made no move to take it, she asked
him if he did not want it, and another
who lay near said: Lady, you don't
understand. He wants it, but he
can't take it, for he has no hands"
"Tears came to her eyes and she
choked when she tried to speak. But
the first boy laughed and said: Never
mind, lady, it's all right; he hasn't
anything on me, for he hasn't any
feet"
mo more important work than the
retraining of these crippled soldiers
remains for the government to do.
There are to be no more war depen-
dents among the brave boys who suf-
fered to bring about the victory. Those
who have lost their feet are learning
to walk on artificial ones. Machine
made hands are being turned oat so
perfectly adaptable that a man who
has lost both of his own is now trair+.
ed as a mechanical engineer. -
"But this work takes money quite;
a lot of it. Is not tie money well
spent? The victory Liberty loan
will in part go toward this work, and
Henderson county must do. its full
Ehare. It must help pay for the job
now that it is finished =

few hours before.
Damage to the building is estimated
at $4,000. W. P. Bane has the new
contract. The loss is covered by in

been caused by a defective fue. The
family were in ignorance of the fire
until the shouts of passerby drew
their attention to the flames coming

tor in the sale of Liberty oan bonds
here and in Western North Carolina.
AS is universally known, the two
banks of Hendersonville have risen to
the occasion in everything connected.
with. the war. Their burden and their
responsibility have both been great.
and both have been discharged with
a spirit equally as great.
In this, the last loan Of the Great

the bonds-frst for patriotic reasons.
and then because if the people do not
buy the bonds the banks will. which
will mean there vii be no funds for

JIM AND THE FLOUR.

Of course, you know Jim? Jim is
that great big iron gray horse the ex-
press company belongs to, or that be-
longs to the express company It
doesn't make any difference which
way you put it. Jim IS said 10 be The
finest, as he is certainly the mCst IT,
te1ligent, express horse in tie south
no, in the United States.
Well, Jim feels badly. He made a
mistake, last Saturday. You see,
when he wants an apple, or piece
of candy, or anything like that, he al
WAYS stops at the Ideal fruit store
and raising one massive hoof about
~rTe size of large ham, taps twice ell
he sidewalk. He knows what will
blow. Well, last Saturday Jim saw
a bag OF something in a wagon, just in
front of him and having nothing par
ticular on his mind at the minute he
nicked it up and gave it a gentle
shake. To his surprise and to the
AhTners dismay, there was a snowfall
~ white and expensive wheat flour
and Main street resembled the Artic
regions for few minutes. ~
Jim looked so sorry that no one had
the heart to reprove him and it is not
likely that he will ever make such
another mistake. For he is the finest,
as he is the most intelligent express
horse anywhere in thG world.
