GOVERNOR WILL DECIDE.

The date designated by the
supreme court for the hang.
ing of Ebert w. Blancett
convicted of murder, probably
will be within 80 days from
next Tuesday.
The United States supreme
courts mandate in the case is
expected to be in the hands
OF Jose D. Sena, clerk of the
state supreme court, by Tues
day and the court will then
fix the date for the execution
OF the death sentence passed
OH the youth. The date will
be within 80 days from the
receipt of the mandate.
The mandate has been ex-
pected daily since the expira-
tion of the time that A. B.
Renehan, attorney for the
youth, had for filing a motion
for rehearing following the
courts denial of his appeal.
The time expired on May 81.
The first word as to when
the mandate would come
down, however, did not reach
here until yesterday afternoon
when Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Harry S. Bowman re-
ceived a telegram from the
clerk of the court at Wash
ington saying it would be
mailed at once. 1t should
reach here by Tuesday unless
delayed in the mails.
Blancett, who is in a death
cell at the state prison, now
has no avenue of escape from
the gallows that stand waiting
in the jail yard, except that
of executive clemency and it
was understood that efforts al
ready had been started to get
Governor LarraZolo to com.

SOFT PARENTS TO BLAME

This week we had a citizen
and a good friend of The
News to tell us of a most de-
plorable happening which
proved that it was up to the
preachers, the teachers and
the newspapers to call atten-
ton to the lax morality of the
country and plead for a re-
turn to old paths. He was
right, all right-but the point
The News wants to make
again as it has in the past is
this-while no minister, teach
er, or editor should side-step
his responsibility one whit, yet
the handspring of all moral
laXity and stunted conscience
is the modern disintegration
of the home. This nation
needs parents who command
their homes. 1t needs fathers
and mothers who will be more
concerned about the charac-
ter of the associates of their
children than about the
amount of money the family
represents. It needs parents
who can say "NO'-ana make
it stick. It needs parents who
fear not to use the rcd when
it is needed and who are not
spiritually undermined with
the damnable sophistry that 1t
is a mistake to administer cor
poral punishment, If this ma
tion maintains her character
and her red-blooded sturdi-
ness, this soft doctrine Of child
training must be relegated to
the scrap heap. Soft words and
plaintive looks are no match
for the rebellion of self-willed
youth and the parent who
thinks so and acts accordingly
lays up for himself trouble at
compound interest, payable as
an annuity in his declining
years, A parent who shirks
the responsibility of proper
child training is a moral cow

HEAVY FIRE LOSS

The barn of E. U. Brown
about eight miles southwest o1
Estancia, was struck by light.
ming during the storm last Fri.
day afternoon, and the barn
and contents were destroyed
by fire.
The entire south end of the
barn was shattered by the
stroke, and burst into flames
at once.
Only the women folks and
some small boys were at home
at the time. The boys got
several calves and an automo-
bile out of the barn, but could
save nothing else.
The barn contained 1900
bales of hay, 1900 bushels of
corn, a threshing machine,
several sets of harness, some
and some small tools.
Mr.. Brown estimates his
loss at $1,000. He had $2,-
200 insurance.

FOR BOYS AND GIRLS ONLY

"aiiI w say JUST d lew
words to the farm boys and
farm girls, and the older peo.
pie need not bother to read it
at all. =.
Now, you and | know that
the boys and girls club work
represents one of the most
important lines of agricultur-
al activity in the United States
today. | believe it is impor-
tant, because it has such large
possibilities. We men and wo-
men who are trying to i'm
prove farming and farm life
will be out of the game when
you boys and girls are just
reaching the prime of life.
You have the advantage of US,
because you are learning the
principles Of good agriculture
and home-making while you
are still young enough to learn
to the best advantage and to
apply in a practical way the
knowledge thus gained
throughout your whole lives.
Even as boys and girls you
are accomplishing more good
than can be measured. The
good that you will be able to
do will increase as you grow
older and, when you become
full-grown men and women,
you can supply for the agri-
cultural forces of this nation
a leadership such as the world
has never known before, |
| congratulate the boys and |
girls club members. And |
would like to ask a favor of
the boys and girls who are
not members of the clubs. We
are trying-the United States
Department of Agriculture,
the state agricultural colleges,
and a great many other peo-
ple-to make the farms of
this country more profitable
and home life on the farm
more pleasant, ] wish the
rest Of you boys and girls
would join with those who
are already members of the
clubs and help US in accom-.
plishing this great service for
our common country. 1t Is Il
patriotic thing to do; and it
is a service that can not be
rendered by anybody except
you boys and girls.
The year 1920 should be
