UNLUCKY ONES.
Editor the News:

EulIor tAe N2vS.
 In a long write-up in the Verde Cop per News, printed at Jerome, Arizona, in which tells of the wonders of the oil fields of Texas, we find the follow ing, after telling of many farmers get ting rich over night, who had lived a long life of poverty, tell of the un- lucky ones. No man should lease all of his lands and never sign a. lease without seeing it does not cover all of his lands. After they buy poor All mans other half of his royalties, they will drill on his land Watch! Watch! As we'll as signs leases-"Citizen."
 Mot all the farmers of the Ranger region have become wealthy in oil Those who have failed to do so are those who leased their land to big companies that are simply sitting tight and not drilling the acreage. The other day talked to c. Altman, who has ninety-acre farm at Olden Switch, three miles southwest of Ran ger and right near where the biggest wells of the whole filed have been brought in. Altman leased his land to the Texas Oil Company for $3 an acre. $27O, and the Texas Company has never so much as put up derrick on the Altman farm and Altman is grind ing along the best he can, farming his land and living in poverty while his friends and neighbors have become immensely rich.
 "But you could sell part of your royalty" I suggested when he told me his troubles.
 "Yes, I've already sold half of if about on the same basis as I leased my land,' was his disheartened reply
 Schools in the oil fields has profit ed as we'll as the churches. Little one-room frame schools out in the sticks have income sufficient to sup. port big university. Only the other day the directors of the Colony school near the Roper we'll, refused $50,O0( for half the eighth royalty. A Cali. fornia company had drilled well or the school lot almost to the sand an6 when I was there last week prepar- ations were being made to take care of the flow from big gusher.'

refraining from taking such action
by the view that as the British gov
eminent had placed the Sim Fem in
possession of Irish parliamentary rep
resentation, they should be left to deal
with the Sim Fem. But It is now
evident that this was a tactical mis-
take as far as the conference is con-
cerned-an adaptation of the fatal
Asquithian fallacy of wait and see,
which has sent Asquith to rusticate at
Biarrtz instead of leading a strong
party in the house of commons.
Mr.. O'Kelly, who is now the center
of interest, proposes to remain on

the Irish question which has all the
attraction of a novelty for the con-
ference delegates and to the press,
