REVENUE STAMPS
 CONTEMPLATING
 LATEST INDUSTRY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10-A new counterfeiting ''industry' has fol- lowed in the wake of prohibition.
 "This industry" says Chief Moran of the treasury secret service, lis the counterfeiting of the strip label reve- nue stamp that goes over the corks, or that used to go over the corks, of whisky bottled in bond Those en- gagged in the manufacture of whisky are prepared to use these counterfeit stamps and we have arrested three gangs already for doing it.
 At present the main problems of the secret service, however. are to check note-raising, which Chief Moran says has increased to an alarming extent. in the last year and the forgery of government checks. which he adds, has become almost an epidemic
 Records of the secret service show, according to MT. Moran, more arrests and investigations during the last year than for any similar preceding period.

We do not think the slogan "Coxsure.' devised by Chairman White of the National Democratic Com rnttee is happy This is a variant of cock sure' which, whatever it might have meant at one time-"certan," safe" 'trustworthy"--is now popuary understood foolishly confident. or considering the chances of failure disaster.
 A "cocksure" person understand to be one who thinks he knows when he has only a superficial knowledge o the problem hand. We no longer ply a who knows, who knows he knows and whose knowledge people generally accept
 A cocksure person is viewed with suspicion and we are generally willing to bet that he's wrong.

LOUISIANA O|L PIPE
 LINES CHASED AS
 COMMON CARRIERS

NEW ORLEANS. Aug. I0-On pipe lines in Louisiana became common carriers Saturday under provisions of a law enacted by the recent general assembly. The lines now come under the supervision and regulation of the state railroad commission.
 The bill as passed concluded d fight of long standing between the Standard Oil company of Louisiana ard the in- dependent oil producers of North Louisiana The Independents claimed that the nature of the business con. ducted by the Standard proved the corporation lines to be common car riers. while the Standard contended it's lines were private property.
 The term common carriers as de- fined in the law includes persons, firms or corporations engaged in the transportation of crude petroleum for hire or which may legally be held to be such from the nature of their business. It is provided that there shall be no discrimination against the owners or shippers of oil

From references made to skilled writers in ancient literature, the in ference is drawn that shorthand was known long before the Christian era The first authentic knowledge of the art dates to the first century before Christ.

 REVOLT IN MEXICO
gRepublIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

MExICALI, Lower California, Aug. 10-The chief development was a state ment by Governor Cantu that relegated the affairs of this district to second place for the present and drew atten- ton to the general political situation in Mexico as he viewed it. The statement said that Governor Cantu hoped to unite various factions and to re-estab- fish a government of the people. and while it's wording was yelled it was generally accepted here as an an nouncement of his intention to head a revolt against the federal government and to carry the fight out of this dis trict, rather than to await attack ana thus find himself on the defensive at home
 In addition to Governor Cantu's ex- tended statement, a member of con gress from the northern district or Lower California issued a proclaation alleging that Cantu was in rebellion. '

Washington, January.-Reprcs cnta-
tive Carl w. Riddick, of Montana,
friend OF the farming interests in
Congcss and himself a farmer, has
had read into the Congressional Re
cord facctio us burIesquc on the

cared by the American Defense Socic
~. IT is in the form Of an act and
is US follows:
The government OF the United
States shall have the farms apprais-
cd and shall take them over, paying
the owners 4 per cent government
bonds
commission shall be formed to
run the farms thus taken over to be
composed of fifteen members, five or
whom shall be farmers, five shall be
farm employees. and five shall be ap
pointed by the President Of the United
States. The five farmer commission
ors shall be elected by the farmers
The cmployc commissioners shall
be elected by the farm en- ploycs
They shall - hold Office for two
years and their salary shall be fixed
by the commission.
The commission shall at once pro
coed to employ proper persons to op
cate the farms, as far as possible, EN-
ploying the present operators and
their wives and children when work
ing to continue OH farms now occu-
pied.
The commission shall fix the rate
nnV for 9,
cs, but the first year the following
rate shall govern:
Farmers operating 100 acres and
under shall be paid ninety cents per
&less6sttx &asssssasa. ..A3..
For farms 100 to 200 acres, $l.25

ut which produce is to be sold and

Such farmers Plumb Plan would
put the farmers in as favored class
as tho railroad Plumb bill would put

tho farmer Of liability Of crop failure
and put the result OF all such faiIur
es on the public. It's enactment would
not preclude any other class from
