GOING IN EARLY.

AS this is the off-season in farm
ing, the people out on the plains of
eastern counties are turning their
attention to local political contests,
for candidates by the dozen are shy
ing their hats into the ring, While
all the candidates who have APP
peared can supply democratic ped
igreeS, when personal battles con-
tinue and resentment comes with
charges of not playing the game
fairly, independents and republicans
may offer themselves for sacrifice
or success at the polls. Eight months
is a long period to have to listen

EFFICIENT RAILWAY OPERA
TION.

While the great majority Of the
people are we'll pleased TO see the
railroads so back to private own
ership and control, 1t is generally
admitted that they ought never to
return wholly to the old methods.
The government was able to do
certain things that private owners
never could do. There is no rea-
son why any improvements that
developed under government con-
troll, should not be retained under
private management.
In many cases previous to gov
eminent control, competing roads
would use two stations in one city
or town, with much duplication of
expenses, all of which the public
had to pay for. Where a saving
has been made by uniting stations,
terminals and freight houses, the
railroads should continue this con-
solidation.
Under private ownership where
the roads were required to compete
goods would frequently he sent by
roundabout ways, so that some
railroad could get the advantage
of a longer haul. That would use
up more coal, take more labor and
clog up transportation facilities,
which would in the end be paid
for by the public.
One great demand for govern
ment ownership will be based at
some time on the injustice done to
non-competins points, A carload
of freight should not go to Los An
geles from Chicago cheaper than
from Chicago to Albuquerque.
Under the new system of opera
ton, whatever gains We're made by
direct routing should be retained.
The railroads should not be per-
mitted to add to labor and cost of
transportation by roundabout ship
ments. If the roads having the
less direct routes suffer by diver
sion of freight, they will have to be
But as a whole di- |
rect routing will be much more
economical. The nations freight
can be transported in that way
with much less equipment and
labor.
1t ought to be possible to save
the gains that were made under
public operation, while returning
to the greater efficiency that can
be expected under the stimulus of
ambition and private
ownership.

AMERICAN LEGION

OWNERSHIP or LAND

Last week the Napa Post of tho
American Legion of California, in
accordance with the Americaniza
ton policy of the legion, resolu-
ton was unanimously adopted APP
proving a senate bill by Senator
James d. Phelan, as follows:
Whereas, The United States of
America is menaced by the influx
of japanese and Asiatics to an ever
increasing extent, and
Whereas, said japanese have by
various means evaded the land
laws of the state of California; and
Whereas, Senator James d. Phe-
Ian has declared his intention to
prohibit said menace and evasion
by the Introduction of prohibitory
measures in the United States SEN
ate, namely, bill to prevent from
becoming American citizens the
children born in this country of
Japanese parents or other parents
prohibited by the laws Of the Uni
ted States from becoming citizens;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved, THAT the Napa. Post
No. 113 of the American Legion of
california does by these presents
voice its unanimous approval of
said senate bill.
The Carneros Farm Center of
Napa county adopted these resolu-
tons.
Whereas, We. the mcmbers of
the Carneros Farm Center, feel
that If the white people continue to
sell land TO Orientals that the even

have the same standards of living

COTTON BEST CASH PRODUCER

The farmers of carlsbad banked
more than q million dollars in
1919, of cotton crop money. Chavez
county has taken notice and ex-
poets this year to have as large
acreage in cotton as Eddy county
had last year. Mesilla valley land
owners also propose to get into the
industry in a large way.
The river valleys of southern
New Mexico have the right combi-
nation of climate, soil and water
for the production of high grade
cotton. The acre profit last year
on the Pecos was $164.13 for cot
ton and but $61.15 for alfalfa,
which was formally the star pro-
duct around Carlsbad.

Admiral Sims is now in the same

The administration has it in for
both of them, because they had the

tensive and successful farmers in

shipped $4,000 worth of furs. and
two weeks prior made a shipment
valued at $1,000. These furs were
q general selection consisting of
about all the native bearing

Robinson from different points.
These shipments were direct to fur
dressers and not to commission
men as is the channel through
which most furs find the market.
At first thought the uninitiated
might wonder how many carloads
of furs it would take to bring $10,-
500 The fact is that it took several
grain bags to hold them, and the
shipment was made by express.
With coyote skins bringing So and

all other skins in proportion it does
not take much of a bulk of furs to
bring $1,000.
