Culpable Negligence

A short time ago an interurban car
ran off the track, caught fire. and
several passengers were burned to
death. coroners inquest was held
and it was found that the CAUSE of
the tragedy was a broken rail Eyi
dence was given that the track had
not been regularly inspected and two
railroad men who were responsible
for this work were bound over to the
grand jury on a charge of manslaught
er. Human lives are precious but how
many people there are who suffer
needless pain and eventually descend
into a premature grave because Of the
same cupable negligence with which
these road inspectors are charged You
should pay the same attention to your
spine that the roadmaster and his
crew should pay to the condition of
the roadbed.
If your spine is normal you will be
healthy.
If a spinal analysis discloses the
fact that nerve pressure is present
you will sooner or later cease to en-
JOY HEALTH.
Taken in time the chiropractor will
adjust the subluxated (dgsplaced) YER
tebrae (small bones of the spine)
which are the CAUSE of the nerve
pressure and you will be healthy and
will STAY HEALTHY.
Don't wait until you are on bed
of sickness Have your spine ana
lyzed NOW it may save you weeks
and months Of pain and suffering in
the near future.

A CALL TO ORCANIZA-
 TONS OF SOUTHWEST

i Discussion throughout the Southwest has evolved so many new and conflicting angles in the consideration of the project to develop the resources of the Colorado river that it is believ- ed the complex situation may best be clarified by a meeting of all elements at interest.
 The members of the League of the Southwest therefore have ordered that a special meeting be called for the sole and eX- press purpose of considering the present status of the project to develop the Colorado river resources. By an overwhelm- ing vote of the membership Rlv- erside, California, was chosen as the place of meeting.
 The meeting is therefore here with called at Riverside Cali and 10th, 1921.
 Since public thought has focused upon the proposal to build a dam in Boulder Canyon, and the Governments investi- gatiOnS have cryStalllZed in an unpublished report prepared by Director Davis of the U. s. Re clamation Service Gin obedience to the Kinkaid Act) this docu- ment will necessarily be an important topic of discussion. It is assumed Secretary of the Interior Fall, as well as Direc- tor Davis, will be present to as certain the sentiments of the people of the Southwest and to give the meeting the benefit of l their counsel.
 The interstate Colorado river Commission, which came into being as a result of the activi- ties of the League of the South west and was created by the joint action of the Federal Gov ernment and the several states in the Colorado River basin, is is expected to have it's initial meeting concurrently as to time and place.

POISON BAIT EFFECTIVE
 ON OLD WISE WOLVES

Even the wise old wolf will fall for the temptation of pois- on if the bait is properly pre- pared and placed. Such is the conclusion proved, in the face of long standing belief to the contrary, by predatory animal inspectors employed by the Bi- ological Survey, United States Department of Agriculture.
 "We arrived on the range one evening"" reads a recent Arizona report, land killed yearling colt to be used as a drag. That night we scattered perhaps 15O poison baits. The next day we made another drag with an automobile, and along this drag line put out about 300 baits. That night the wolves came in and killed a fine colt; but they continued over their regular route of trav- el until they crossed the drag line, where each picked up poison bait. The pair, both old animals, were found about one-half mile from where they picked up the bait.
 "One of them had lost a. front foot in trap, perhaps two or three years previously. or that range are now thoroly convinced that poi son will do the work"
 Two more wolves were killed by poison. recently, on the range south of Nelson. ~I
