TILE NEW ROAD LAW.

The Board of County Commissioners were yes
terday engaged in attempting to put the new road
law into action. This law became effective March
IL and applies to all counties in the state.
Under the provisions of the act, the Commits
sioners have option of there methods of opera
tom They may make arrangement with the
State Highway Commission to superintend thc
county road construction and repairs; they may
select county road superintendent; or, they may
put two more school districts in a road district
and select supervisor for the district.
Each OF these methods has it's advantages. Each
possesses some drawbacks. The Bernalillo county
board appeared to approach the matter with an
open mind and to desire only the best interests of
the county.
The law requires that an advance budget be made
of contemplated expenditures and allows deviation
therefrom only upon formal action
1t also requires that funds be pro rated among
the school districts thereby securing fair distri-
button of benefits.
All in all, the law seems fair, workable and pill
able Its precautions against waste apparently
well thought out.
II applied in good faith by the boards of the
state, it should produce good results

ANOTHER RED STRONGHOLD is LOST.

Armenia has shaken off the rule of the reds.
Three months of bolshevsm was sufficient for her
shrewd people.
II it were not for the iron rule that has been
established by Nikoai Lenine and Leon Trotzky the
Russian people likewise would shake off the soviet
yoke. But the mailed fist and the Withholding of
rations have been powerful arguments with the
mouzhiks, who, so long used to the tyranny of the
czars, stolidy accepting the tyranny of the
bolshevk leaders.
Il. But even Russia is showing clear signs of unrest
1t will not be many months before the peasantry
asserts itself, and then Russia will have another
chance to become one of the great powers of the
world, which her resources and her immense popu-
laton entitle her to be.
1t is somewhat amusing to read Trotzky's state
ment, reported Wednesday, to the effect that the
uprising has not been suppressed because the boil
sheviki wished avoid losses, not only their own
troops but to the insurrectonists in the Kronstadt
garrison where the anti-soviet movement seems
to have been Graded. Since when have the bolshe-
yik leaders become tender Of heart?
The real reason for this "forbearance' the
part of the red gang. however, seems to lie in a

THE MAYOR SEES FOR HIMSELF.

Mayor Andrew ]. Peters of Boston made an
interesting experiment Wednesday.
Disguished as tramp he spent the night at a
municipal rooming- house where the city shelters
the homeless and feeds them in the morning.
The mayor found out a number of interesting
things.
First, he learned that chopping wood for four
hours is a good appetizer for breakfast
Second, he discovered that neither drink dis
sipation responsible for the fact that his forty

Third. and perhaps most important of all to a
municipal chief executive. Mayor Peters learned

THE BESTOWED MEN.

1t isn't ali in getting rich it isn't all in winning
fame,
bigger thing than victory is how you've tried to
play the game;
Success is keeping faith with men and standing
true to what is best,
And finding Joy in humble things and being fit
for every test.
The good man need not come to wealth nor need
he rise to world renown,
Not often is the richest man the bestowed citizen
in town;
You'll find he walks in humble ways and modest
is the garb he wears,
And on his back from day to day life piles
multitude of cares.
His glory is a generous heart, voice that carries
hope and cheer,
A willingness to do his work, wish to be of
service here;
He asks favored place from life, nor shirks
the hardships in his way
But meets all men with head erect and plays the
friend from day to day.
The best loved man in any town is honest, manly
brave and true
Sharing his life with all who live doing what
work he finds to do;
He may not climb the heights of fame nor come
to treasures golden fee,
But ne is still accounted great in all God asks a
man to be.

THE ONLY CURE.

Every reader of the Morning Journal who has a
tuberculosis in his family should study care
fully the statement of DR. Charles ]. Hatfield pub
lished on the last page of our issue of Thursday.
DR.. Hatfield, who has made an exhaustive study
of the disease, declares that the only known cure
is rest, fresh air, good food, combined with good
medical treatment and proper mental attitude on
the part of the patient"
mo serum, vaccine drug, gas inhaant, electrical
or other method of treatment has yet been devised
to cure tuberculosis, the doctor adds.
DR.. Hatfield's statement is not a message of
despair, but one of hope combined with whole
warning.
OF natures remedies, this scientist says:
Thousands of men and women are today walk
who have been cured of tuberculosis by this method
Thousands of such potential cures being eff
feced right in Albuquerque--or can be effected,
if the patients will only follow this doctors pre-
scrpton.
DIR. Hatfield speaks with authority. He is the
managing director of the National tuberculosis as
ISOLATION. His word ought to have more weight
than the claims of INSCRIPTIONS manufacturers of
nostrums.
For those who play the game right. and play
are good. tuberculosis need not be the great white
plague" if it is taken in time and fought in COM
nonsense way.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, March 17.-Signs Of
exhaustion of buying power led tC
a stampede to unload by holders
| in the wheat market today, and
| caused prices to crumble. The
close was nervous, y C to SIC net
lower, with March S1.57 to $1.57 Il
and May $1.4S to SLASH. Corn
lost &c to 1sc and oats %c to IL
to 1 &c. Provisions gained zoe to
soc.
1t was evident that new incen-
tives were needed to bring about
any decided progress for bulls In
wheat. Gossip was current that an
embargo against importation OF
agricultural products into the
United States had been decided on
by President Harding but no con-
firmation appeared to be fortheom-
ing, and the moderate upturn failed
to last.
Then renewal of misgivings con-
corning the industrial outlook at
tracted notice. 1t was at this stage
that selling ascribed to an elevator
interest weakened the morale of
the bulls, and left the market bare
of buying orders except from shorts.
Corn and oats were firmer early
with wheat. but quickly went low
er when wheat started downgrade.
Some export business in lard had
stimulating effect on the provi-
sion market. Besides. fresh pork
loins were selling at the highest
prices this year.
Closing prices:
Wheat - March, $1.57; May,
.$1.4S.
Corn--May. 68Bc; July, 70% C.
Oats--May, 42%c; July, 43hc.

Uncle Wiggily got himself the

pretty soon he saw Sammie and

"Have you lost anything, Sammie
and Susie?" asked the bunny ger

ers to take to the lady mouse teach

said Sammie.
Flowers? How can you find
them after we have just had a
