"As the People View 1t"

does not work both ways, Yours
truly, A subscriber.
The Lever law makes it crime
10 conspire to raise the price of
certain things mentioned, which
things include the necessaries of
life, such as food, clothing. fuel,
farm implements and some other
things.
1t also makes it a crime to con-
spire by strikes, or otherwise, to
interfere with the transportation
of these articles.
The Journal quite agrees with
your attitude for impartial applica-
ton of the law
The trouble is in its enforcement
without fear or favor, instead of
| in its terms.

WHY WORRY?

We worry lots, the most of us,
and make the dickens of a fuss
about expected ills and aches
that prove at last to be but fakes.
Most all the troubles that we fear
but fizzle out and disappear, and
those remaining, e'er they come,
are apt to be diminished some.
1t isn't wise to count the batch
of chickens e'er they fully hatch,
and he who on the bridge would sit
must wait until he reaches it.
It's better far to figure how to
do whate'er confronts us now,
than ache about a looked-for i'll
that hasn't come and never will.

Editor Clyde Ely of the Deming
Graphic advises people who do not
like Deming to go to hades. Why
so far? Yuma is nearer, and said
to he hotter. The editor comments.
Personally, the editor feels like
saying that those who don't like
sand-storms, preferring the other
forms of natural disturbances, or
the climate, the water or the peo-
pie, are welcome to pack up and
go whenever they get ready; they
can go plumb to the devil if they
so desire. We want to be nice
to everybody, and Deming is cOur-
teous to visitors, but these people
who make Deming their home and
spend two-thirds of their waking
hours wishing they were some
where else and knocking, are UNI
desirable, and a drawback to any
community; the sooner they pass
on in their search for heaven on
earth, the sooner will Deming
forge ahead, unencumbefed by
dead ones

~
Tucumcari American: Practical
~ all Of the big oil companies have
purchased from 10000 to $4,000
acres of leases in Potter, Hutchin-
son, Moore, Oldham and Carson
counties Texas, and in Quay eoun-

companies and thousands of indi-

acreage in this territory. These
leases have been purchased at from
20 to $50 per acre, depending upon
their proximity to a well.
The big companies have invested
in these leases from $4,000 to
S26O,000 each. Many of them are
now drilling, and others are pre-
pairing to do so at once. None of
them purchased an acre until they
had had their biologists examine
the lands thoroughly.
The Carter people, for instance.
had had from three to five geolo-
gists examine the territory in QUAY

times during the last year. .-
The Humble Oil and Develop

make three examinations of the
larger portion of Potter, Hutchin-

ly bought in Hutchinson county a

like $40 per acre for the Oil and

of the deplorable facts in human
affairs that men can be so easily
induced TO follow the plausible
leader who appeals to prejudice or
to crouch or to a real grievance,
although he may be the last man
likely to be able to satisfy that
grievance.
Take the case of Grunau, the
leader of the outlaw strike

led Grunau was that he was dis

their regularly constituted leaders
and against their contracts and
against their obligations to the

but it is typical of the ease with
which glib promiser Of just what

partisan League. He promised
what some of the farmers at least

New York Assembly Is Wrong.

assembly prefers this Interpretation
of its actions, on that eXtraordt-

But, strong liquor being thus
eliminated, what can be said of the
IintoXication produced by the false
patriotism, the cheap heroics and

men led into a wretched blunder

The action touching the socialist
assemblymen is irretrievable. But
further outrages upon the Ameri-
can system are being pressed for
passage. Weeks have elapsed.
There has been ample opportunity
for the assembly to regain its poise.
Can we not appeal from the as
