The plan is that each man will
share in the profits of the pool, in ac-
cordance with the amount of land
subscribed The land is both irrigated
and dry land, and lies in southeast
erly direction from Carlsbad. The anti
cline has already been mapped several
times by biologists, who are enthu-
siastic over the prospects which it
holds. The drilling company allows
one-eighth of the profits of any well
or series of wells to the pool, which is
to be divided among the owners of
lands subscribed in pro rata to their
lands Under this plan, n man whose
land exists in the north end of the
pool will profit by drilling in any To-
cality, even should it prove that his

ninety days after tbs 10000 acres is

PLEADS FOR BUILDING
Up OF A NEW WORLD
Message Promulgated Through En-
tirely New Publication Entitled
The Futurs"-"A Government
Statement Of National Needs"

LONDON, Seut 15.-tBy Associat-
ed Premier David Lloyd
Georges stirring appeal to the ma
tion, in which he pleads for the
building up of a new world, ana
the novel method of it's distribution
are the subject OF excited Discus
sion in all political qarters.
The Future" in which his mes
sage appeared, is something quite
new in political literature. 1t is
described as "a national publica.
ton issued with Premier Lloyd
Georges authority which will be
distributed throughout the coun-
try Monday
"The Future" also contains state
ments on national needs, especially
cOntribted by members OF tile gov
ernment. The advent of this pub
lication and it's precise significance
excite intense curiosity.
Rightly or wrongly the premier's
appeal is regarded as the signal OF
new OrientatiOn in the govern
ment's policy.
With the insistent public de-
mand for retrenchment and the I'M
popularity of the government in
the matter of its trade policy, the
Russian affair, and the Irish prob.
lem, the government is surrounded
by difficulties which, in general
opinion, can be solved only by an
appeal to the country.
'1rhe Future is dated September
1t has the appearance of news
paper, but is not marked Number
One, and there is no indication
that there will be an issue number
two. Immediately under the title
is the following:

quate and the motive power up to
requirements. At the same time
the public was uyged to lay in its
coal before the movement OF crops
helped to clog transportation.
Director Hines evidently knew
this situation. If he had added his
warning to the coal industry, and
bent the energies of the railroad ad-
ministratiOn to seeing there was
equitable and prompt distribution
of ears there might be different
situation now.
The Holly chieftain., 1919-09-18

Coal operators do not hesitate
To say that the railroads have
done as much in recent weeks to
keep down coal production as any
other agency. They declare that
politics has reared its head in the
coal situation; that band of poll
ticians of the HuddlestOn class is
trying to get control of coal for
ulteriOr purposes.

blame should be placed where it

H. H W. Lawson, premier of Victoria,
and deputation of soldiers in the pre-

thrown by one Of the soldiers. The men
then proceeded to pitch the office furni-

The police dispersed the rioters.
The difficulty had its origin yesterday
when a crowd. including returned SOL

of the soldiers went to Premier Lawson's

Rome. July pa severe cold wave Is
sweeping the entire province. with a
heavy snowfall reported in the high
lands surrounding Roms. The inhabi-
tants have been forced to put on their
winter clothing and fires have been start
ed in their homes. The cold weather in
a season which is usually hotter than the
tropics recalls a legend dating back TO
the fourth century, when it is said that
the Virgin appeared to Johannes and
Pope Liberius. They were commando ed
TO build a church on spot where snow
would fall the next morning, August 5.
Accordingly the Basilica Santa Maria
Maggiore, the largest church in Rome.
was erected and dedicated to the Virgin.

SOLDIERS G0DMOTHER
VISITING IN BURLINGTON
Mrs. Marie A. Cakes, Native of
Jericho, Active in Welfare
Work at War Schools and
Among Returning Boys of the
A. E. F.

Mrs. Marie A. Cakes, known all over
greater New York as 'godmother' to
hundreds of soldier boys who passed
through the war schools of Columbia
University during the war period, and
still working for the welfare of the boys
of the \. f. F. now returning from
France, is spending few days at the
New Sherwood Hotel while on her vaca-
ton. She expects to be joined here by
one of her sons within a week and they
will spend a few weeks In Vermont be-
fore returning to New York, where Mrs
Cakes is a designer and writer, living al
No. 70 Morningside Drive.
Though confessng that she is 70 years
of age, Mrs. Oakes can hardly make one
believe that she has seen more than 81
summers. She claims the town of jericho
as her birthplace and hopes to spend a
few days there before returning to her
work. She is very fond of the country and
expresses her delight at being able tc
visit childhood scenes once more.
While Mrs. Cakes was gaining the un.
dying gratitude Of hundreds of "hel
boys" of whom she knew 500 personally
at the Columbia College Training Camp
her work attracted such attention thai
many of the city papers spoke of it il
glowing terms, and such was the

with a unit of women to serve he

| to go, but found 1t impossible at tina
time, so she continued her great worl
on this side. until she was receiving let
ters from every part of France telling o.
the high esteem In which she was helC
among the soldier boys.
Here are some Of the extracts from these
letters as reprinted from New Yorl
