GAMING CASES
 GO n LOWELL
 FIR HEARING


 Six gambling cases. arising out of recent raids, on Bisbee's so-called so- cial clubs. that were to have been tried in the Bisbee justice court, have been transferred to the justice court at Lowell on motion for change of venue filed by attorneys for the de- fense Winters and Thcmas, of Low ell.
 In their affidavit asking for a change of venue the attorReys aIlege that a fair and impartial trial could not be- obtained ia Risbee Ch account of the prejudice of w P. Craig. jus tIce of the peace. The ground on which prejudice is alleged is not s at cd, but under the statutes the defense is entitled 10 two changes of venue, and the motion cannot be resisted by the prosecution. As far as is known a conviction h:ts never been obtained on gambling charge that was brought before a j-ry in the justics court at Lowell
 The six. cases are those of Tony Rodriguez. Joe Blanco and D. Giaco- letti. arrested in raids on the night. of May ?, and charged With being the -proprietors of p'aces where gambling was in pro rress. and Manuel Quedo. charsel with being the proprietor Of the Brewery hall. which was raided on the s;gh Of May II. and Joe Blan- co. cha -ged witl dealing Blackjack in th- Brewer pool hafl, and Fran cisco ,icido charged with dealing |. Monte, in the B'ewery pool hall. All except Salcido are at liberty unde $500 bond.

COCH|SE COURT
 0PlN|0N UPHELD

An opinion the supreme court af- firmed a judgment of the superior court of Cochise county in the case of the Arizona Mutual Auto Insurance Company, appellant. against the Bis bee Auto Company. appellee.
 The appellant had insured car be- longing to the appelle, and when it was stolen and damaged, suit was brought against the insurance com pany under the theft clause of the policy of insurance Judgment was taken by default.
 The appeal was based on several grounds; on the fact that service was taken on the company's agent at Bis. bee. Bruce Perley; on various other alleged irregularities in procedure and on the fact that the case was tried before Judge McAlister, then su- perior judge of Graham county, it be- ing the contention of the appellant that the superior. judge of Cochise was not disqualified.
 All the other assignments of error are reasoned away but as to the right of the judge of the county to call in another judge, the opinion finds no bar. Besides it is cited that no ob- jection was raised by }he appellant , at the time of the trial to the presen- tation of the case to Judge SicAlister.

The best indication Of the intrinsic
sanndness Of West Texas bonds In
the story coming out Of Ranger this
week TO the effect that J. c. Moore
Of the Brown-Crummer Investment
Co. Of Wichita, Kansas. one Of the
largest county and municipal bond
purchasing concerns in the United
States. is quoted as saying that his
company is a very large owner OF
Ranger municipal bonds and consid-
ers them equally as good as any mu-
nicipal bonds in the United States
He is quoted further ms saying that
Ranger has never delayed an interest
payment or failed TO retire its bonds
at maturity.
The West Texas Chamber Of Com
merce estimates that more than 500
100000 worth Of West Texas city
and county bonds will be offered for
sale during the fall of 1921, to be
used for city paving, sewerage and
park purposes Ia the towns, and
largely for highway construction In
the country. The sale Of these bonds
at par guarantees the beginning Of
this very large constructio nprogram.

The Lubbock avalanche. (Lubbock, Tex.) 1909-1922, 1921-09-15

We don't know just how bad the
drouths are in the desert of Cobb,
but if they are any worse than they
are in Van Zandt county some times,
we are sure they are pretty bad, and
we think worse than this section of
the country has ever known. This
is especially the case with the Plains
country. Very few years have the
crops really been short. We are
never short Of water Our wells
never go dry. and our soil is Of such
nature as to conserve the moisture
50 well that good crops can be pro-
duced with a very small amount of
moisture, and excessive rains does
not retard the growth of crops by
the presence Of obnoxious weeds and
grasses. West Central Texas should
not be confused with West Texas in
reality and the Plains country denies
any relation with West Texas. We
are country Of our own, as capable
as any state in taking care Of our
selves, and possibly no other section
in the state can say that much, not
even the famous Van Zandt coun-
ty.
