Each for All; All for Each

The growing faith Of all classes
Of people in Cooperation, a gen.
eral moral awakening and the &C.
Onomic conditions Of our time
have created a demand for some
definite source of cooperative
education, information and DR.
ganization. There is also a per-
sistent demand that some actual
elimination of competitive mid
dlemen he made and a consequent
immediate saving secured 10 both
producer and consumer and some
steps taken towards the removal
of the root of causes of monopo-
ly, prohteering and speculation.
The Pacific Cooperative
League has been Incorporated to
act as a servant of the people in
the accomplishment of the above
work.
The founders are animated
both by a sense of responsibility
to the ideal of cooperation, and
by the firm belief in the practi-
cability Of a plan whereby an
actual and immediate cut in the
cost Of living can be made.
Each for all and all for each"
expresses the aim of the League
and it is the intention in these
Bylaws to adhere strictly to
the true cooperative law of one
man one vote. This plan, inn
mortalized as the "Rochdale"
system, whereby not capital but
men rule, is the only means
through which the economic life
of the people can be remoulaed
on a basis OF equality of oppor-
tunity.
Cooperation thus planned re.
presents the voluntary giving up
of special privileges. 1t is, there
fore, not a theory Of about JUS
tice, but the practise of the thing
itself.
1t is the earnest desire of the
incorporators that the League
may hasten the day when society
shall be free from all special pri-
vileees and monopolies, free to
realize the cooperative common
wealth.
Cooperation means:
Equality of rights,
Equality of duties,
Equality of ownership,
Equality of responsibility.

AUTO LAW IN BIBLE

Morgantown, W. Va.-Law found
ed on the Bible is good enough for
Mayor Gilmore Of this city.
A local man charged with not hay
ing the tail light burning on his auto
mobile was arraigned before the May
or, who assessed a fine Of 50.
The accused protested, said it was
a poor law under which he was fined
and that he did not think it would
hold water in court. The Mayor de-
clared any law founded or the Bible
was good enough for him. The de-
fendant said he couldn't see where a
tail light had anything to do with
the Bible. The Mayor looked pity
ingly at the accused and said;
"Do you remember the story about
the ten wise men, five Of whom had
lights and five Of whom didn't? Well,
If you do, you will remember that
the Lord wouldn't have anything to
do with the five without lights, and
neither will this court.

go,
You'll find it is the best.
'Tis out in East New Mexico,
The best place in the west.

So let us "boost" for Clovis
And for Curry County, too,

And when II rains, it pours,
But there we raise good corn and

And motoring's a JOY.

The finest in the state.
Verse g.

1t seems alma>t incredible that

since the high water caused so
much trouble in certain sections

the work so that when the harvest
is gathered 1t may be difficult ,c
tell that SO much desoiation and
waste preceded it. Cotton has
been replanted in many instances
and at least 80 per cent of it and
the corn is far enough advanced
to be worked.
