STATE LAWS CANNOT OVER
RIDE. ~

where the clamor is strongest for
beer and the liquor lobby most
persistent, state legislatures are
urged to pass laws permitting the
sale of beverages having a higher
alcoholic percentage than the limit
prescribed by congress. In one
case or two such a legislative act
has been passed, to catch votes
perhaps. But it is on its face fu-
tile legislation apparently al
though some attorneys hold that q
state may still regulate independ-
emily of the federal government.
Concurrent power claimed exists.
A state might lower the percentage,
or fix it as in the act of congress,
but not put into effect an increase
so as to negative the federal code
enacted after adoption of the pro-
hibition amendment which gave
power to the government to legis-
alte upon the subject.
The anti-saloon league is doing
whatit can to prevent the public

There are some people who hold
that a woman Is never any more
beautiful than her nose. They
go SO far as to say that you never

captivating mouths or may have

are some people who really seem
to believe that there never was a
strong man who didn't have a
strong nose. Napoleon was one of
these. He made practice never
to select a man for a responsible
position who did not have a strong
nose.
But these people attach more
importance to the nose than it is
really worth. There have actually
been any number of ravishingly
beautiful women who had very in
different noses, or at least if they
were not ravishing they managed
to make those who knew them
think so. And there have been
strong, commanding men who have
had very inferior noses indeed. So

WHICH is YOURS?

Bill Happy is a pleasant chap
who wears a smile upon his map,
and never meets you night or day
without a cheerful word to say.
But William Grouchy is a mess
who soaks himself in grouchiness
and never yet was known to grin
or have a drop of cheer within.
We may not reach the same degree
of cheerfulness that Bill can see,
or sink to levels quite so low
as William Grouchy likes to so.
Yet not one of us but tends to
lean toward one of these two ends
and to a more or less extent, in
that direction are we bent.
To follow where Bill Happy goes,
n bunch of blessings will disclose;
but he who walks in Grouchy's
shoes, this self-same bunch is sure
to lose.

PERMIT To USE

DENIED THORPE
State Engineer Refuses Ap-.'
plication For Apparent
Water Power Site; Charges
Irrigation Scheme Planned

Especial Correspondence to The journal,
Santa Fe. Sept. 16.-An appli-
cation filed year ago by Z. Z.
Thorpe and others to appropriate
bv diversion 500 second feet con-
tinuously and by storage l76,0O0
acre feet of waters of the Pecos
river was refused by State Engi-
neer Leslie Gillette in statement
issued today because the real pur-
pose was declared not to provide
water power but to irrigate lands
in Texas.
Protest against the application
was filed by the Pecos Water users
association, Pecos Irrigation COM
pany, people OF the Pecos valley IN
Texas and a number of private in
dividuals. A hearing was held at
Carlsbad July 26 and further
hearing at the office of the state
engineer on August 2.
After studying the testimony,
Mr.. Gillette today issued finding
of facts, asserting that the real
nature of the reservoir site cover
ed by the application was for irri-
cation purposes. that the real in
tent of the applicant in seeking to
file the site was that it might be
used for irrigation purposes. that
its impounded water was to be
used in irrigating lands in the
state of Texas, that New Mexico
land susceptible of irrigation need
ed water, that the application was
for speculative purposes only and
was therefore refused.

evidence to justify the conclusion
that the explosion was caused by a
huge bomb loaded with TINT

were found in several adjacent

Mr.. Burns, who said he had been
engaged by the Morgan firm to
make an investigation of the acci-
dent, stated that his personal inVes-
tigation convinced him that a wag-
on containing bomb or bombs was
left in front of the sub-treasury
building with a timing device SO
fixed as to cause it explode pre-
cisely at noon. No trace of the
driver of the wagon had been
found, he said. and added that in
his opinion the man escaped few
moments before the explosion.
Fire Chief Kenyon and officers
from the bureau of combustlbles
also expressed the belief that the
explosion was caused by a bomb al :
ter examining the fragments OF
metal found in the street in tronl
of the Morgan offices. Or, William
f. Doyle, chief of the bureau OF
combustibles, pointed out that the
small hole found in the street near
