friend of all Albuquerque has written US as fol-

ut has come to my knowledge that the Public
Library is likely to be closed July list, by of
the refusal of the city manager to accede to the
quest of the librarian and her assistant for more
adequate remuneration.
II understand they receiving the munificent
sums of ffty-five)d $3.50 and forty-four ($44
a month respectively.
Il think that little publicity might be desirable
for this matter and if you find the condition as
stated, hope you will turn over another stone in
the field OF knowledge and if you uncover
some more nice ladylike doodle bugs"
The facts stated be correct.
The Library must not be closed. Against such ac-
ton storm of protest would arise. Convalescent
visitors, local young people and considerable body
of other citizens constant patrons of the library

In the center of five hundred mile circle God
reared temple of nature. Upon it showered
the SHOWS of winter. The rain clouds of summer
from far away gulf wrapped the spires with wreathes
of moisture and behold, the lofty temple became as
roof garden, forest covered. From rock crevices
crept sparkling waters to make accompaniment for
singing winds that played through tree tops. Into
the gamboling waters flashing rainbow hued

CITY AND SUBURBS.

We seem to have started something by an editoria
recently with reference to furnishing city convent
ences to people living outside the city limits.
Opinions reaching vary all the way from this
retort from one living outside the city:
with really sympathetic interest in the
matter of annexation. when due provision
shall be made for extending to the prospec-
tive citizens the rights and privileges equal
to those enjoyed in the city, remain, etc
To this from a city business man:
should these districts be allowed to come
into the city until such time they
severed, paved, etc, and placed nearly
as possible equal basis with the rest
of the city, which for many years has been
paying taxes for these improvements"
So there you havd it, outsiders glad to come II
when the city will give them everything they wan
at the expense of the city, the city ready to take
them in when they first have everything which
would make coming in an inducement, Quite som
distance apart in their viewpoint, opne.
We have witnessed Just such differences before
but have known of city supplying its public
conveniences to those declining to come into the
city. Such a condition is absurd.
If the city will withdraw these conveniences we
suspect that the differences will adjust themselves
rapidly under the pressure of mutual necessity.

Editor Morning Journal:
The enclosed hypothetical editor
ial sounds silly, doesn't it? We
agree, in toto. Yet there is as
much truth and half truth as there
was in the i'll considered editorial
that appeared in The Journal this
morning.
Mr.. Hebenstreit, who made a
study of the question. and Mr..
Gladding, if he has gone into the
matter, will inform you that the
city of Albuquerque is better off
financially. without the sparsely
settled suburbs, than if they were
within the limits.
Before long We want to be fellow
citizens, but sarcastic utterances
such as you gave voice to this morn
ing, will not hasten the matter.
Sarcasm. in one who should mould
public opinion is rarely necessary
and never becoming.
This annexation business seems
to be one ground of agreement be-
tween yourself and your good
friend, Tom Hughes. and possibly
on a platform of this kind, you
could get together and bury the
Ratchet.
With kindest regards, and with
a really sympathetic interest in the
matter of annexation. when due
provision shall be made for ex-
tending the rights and privileges
equal to those enjoyed in the city,
| remain,
Yours very truly,

That grand stand trumpeng to the Tennessee
governor from the White House and the anxious as
semby in San Francisco was overdue. Twenty nine
republican states have ratified and none rejected
But six democratic states had ratified and had
rejected with emphatic scorn of the president and
politicians who had given orders regardless of the
old democratic policy of federal dictation to
states. The Tennessee governor has hastened to
obey the order from Washington, but whether the

USING UP THE LEFTOVER
JARS OF FRUIT.

At this season of the year many
women find themselves confronted
with the problem of using up the
few remaining Jars Of fruit which
shelves before the beginning of the
new canning campaign. ITS such
nuisance, contriving to use up
these few last jars-when there
are Strawberries in the garden and
nobody cars for canned apriCots
and pears!" such housekeepers tell
themselves, half on the verge of
throwing away the contents of the
leftover fruit jars.
But the high cost of food should
forbid any waste of this sort Those
few remaining jars must be used
if the conscientious housewife is to
have perfect peace of mind.

inst Wondering,

We are just wondering about a
few things.
We are wondering, for example,
how a city like Albuquerque ex-
poets to keep the friendship and
continue to receive aid in keeping
up the city government as long as
we call our neighbors grafters and
sponges.
We are wondering at the docility
of the suburbanites IN paying eX-
cessive and exorbitant water and
sewer rates. when they could IN
corporate into smaller communi-
ties and get them cheaper. AL
though the water department Is
the best paying proposition in these
parts, we charge the outsiders an
extra % per cent, because we are
a municipality, and automatically
without the jurisdiction of the
state corporation commission.
What a magnificent bunch of
profiteers We are!

silk hat, his black coat and striped

as he scrouched down behind II

washed the beds and made the
dishes, and finally the Pip took an
other look and said:

Pip. He reached the chair and
then he made grab, thinking to
catch the bunny gentleman asleep.
But just then Nurse Jane rushed
out of her Kitchen crying: T..
Here! You're not the tailor

hat his coat and trousers alone.
The tall hat needs ironing, the
coat needs mending and the trous-

They'll be easy for the tailor
to get when he comes along, after
Uncle Wiggily has told him to

Uncle Wiggily hopped on his
way and soon he came to where
the tailor bear gentleman had his
shop. This tailor bear was some
relation to Neddie and Beckie
Stubtail, the brother and sister
bear.
will you kindly go to my hol-
low stump bungalow and get my
tall silk hat, my coat and my trous-

bear tailor. Il am wearing my

promised the tailor bear. Then he
put a pair of Grandfather Goosey
Gandor's trousers down on the
ground and rolled over them, the
bear did. That was his way of
pressing creases in the trousers.

Wiggily, as he passed on and the
