FRAT DRIVE" MAY BE
STAGED AGAIN BY THE
BIOLOGICAL SURVEY

Officials Of the United States bic
logical survey, which killed thou
sands of rats in the city last year,
catching over 1000 in traps, stated
yesterday that although the tear
ing down of many old buildings has
greatly increased the. number Of
rats at large in the city, no COM
paign will be started at present,
unless there is a demand for 1t on
the part Of the citizens.
The officials state that in the
last campaign they received but
little cooperation from property
owners, In many instances having
to argue with owners of buildings
before they could secure permis-
sion to Systematically wage war
on the rodents in that vicinity.
1t Is probable that arrangements
will be made for a campaign this

WORK Of VALLEY
ASSOCIATION IS
WELL. UNDER WAY

J. G. Smith, who has been active
in the formation of the Middle Rio
Grande Valley association. Will
start this week making collections
of dues from members and solicit
ing new members from White Rock
canyon to San Marcial.
The organization of the associa-
tion has for it's object the enroll
ment Of at least 1000 residents OF
the middle valley to push the rec
lamation of this section through,
accomplishing the preliminary
work necessary to comply with the
provisions of the McNary bill,
which may pass in congress at any
time.
Large numbers are joining the
organization, both in Albuquerque
and in other sections of the middle
valley.
The McNary bill provides for
revolving fund to be spent in rec
lamation work and It Is hoped TO
so interest the reclamation service
that the proposed reclamation OF
the middle valley may be included
among the first projects to be un-
dertaken.
Under the proposed plan. the
project will include the erection OF
two reservoirs in the upper valley
These would relieve the flood dan
ger, lower the water table and au-
tomatically reclaim much OF the
swamp lands provide ample water
for irrigation during the dry sea
sons of the year, and solve the SIT
problem which threatens the
serviceabilitv OF the Elephant
Butte dam. 1t is understood that
the project Is a pet one with the
reclamation service and that sur
ficient interest on the part OF resi-
dents of this section Of the valley
will probably made it reahty'

BY ASTRONOMER ER
(By The Associated Press.)

Paris, June (by the Associated
Press. Con clusions of Camille
Flammarion, the French astrono-
mer from the study of few hum
dred cases along purely scientific
lines. and apart from religious or
spiritualistic viewpoints, are that
the soul lives after decomposition
of the body, is endowed with facul-
ties still unknown to science anu
can manifest itself at a distance
without the mediation Of the senses.
II have spent years in studying
the question:" the astronomer SAID
"and have applied to it the same
rules as to scientific research.
exclude every example which would
not stand the test of scientific verl-
fication."
Proofs Offered.
Among the proofs offered by Dr'
Flammarion are cases OF uead per
sons fulfilling promises, GIVING
notice of their own demise and CIV
ing warnings of events which after
ward materialized, even such as
the execution of vengeance Tor
wrongs through mediums previous
ly unaware of the wrongs done.
Among the proofs cited are the
following:
THE late composer, Saint Saens,
just before his death, related the
fact that on the last day Of the war
of 1870, while he was dining gaily
with his comrades at an advanced
post, he distinctly heard the chant

later composed his famous requiem
From this phenomenon he had .

later learned that his friend, the

Come From Dalhart to
Reside Here

News which will be pleasing to
Liberal folks was made public the
first of the week when Mr.. Felix l..
Cadou, manager of the Liberal Light,
Ice & Power Company announced his
intention of making his headquarters
in Liberal.
Since taking charge of the plants
here and at Dalhart, Mr.. Cadou has
resided at that place. The company
owns the water system at Dalhart and
has had considerable trouble getting
an adequate supply. A new well was
drilled at the cost of more than $50,
900 and now the water situation is in
good shape and Mr.. Cadou will give
his personal attention to the Liberal
property.
While Liberal has not suffered for
want of service or accommodation at
the hands of the excellent force the
ompay has had at this plae, we are
all glad that Mr.. Cadou is to be here
permanently. He will still make oc-
casional trips to Dalhart but will in
the future call this his home.
He and Mrs. Cadou will take ur
their residence here about the gath Of

STRIKE SITUATION is
SATISFACTORY TO MEN
Local Officials Confident That if Not
Soon Settled Big Four Will
Walk Out

Local Union officials still have q
very hopeful view of the strike situa-
tion, and maintain that the unions will
be successful in bringing the roads to
terms.
There are several reasons for this
opinion, chief of which is the fact that
the Big cannot afford to see them
lose as it means the ak for the other
branches as soon az the present strike
il lost.
There has been little deflection
from the ranks Of the strikers here.
Two men went back last week, but one
of them soon quit again and there has
Eeen no desertions this week. In fact
it seems the men are more hopeful
and more determined to stick It out,
and are getting jobs whenever pos
sible.
A number of sirike-breakers are
working here, but it said that they
are not as a general thing, experien-
ced mechanics, and that the equip
ment is getting in bad shape.
The trike-breakers, we are told,
are being fed and bedded in cars in
the yards, and the claim is being made
h. the strikers that they are drawing
better wages than were paid them be-
fore the strike. -
There has been no disorders reported
to the authorities, but there is a per-
sistent rumor that the strike-break-
ers are armed and that they have not
been cautious as TO the displaying Of
wapons. II this can be verified the
authorities should get busy and mete
ont punishment to them as they de-
serve. The local men are acting like
gentlemen and if the strike-breakers
wish to start sonething, it should be
started with the law.
1t now seems possible that the Fed
eral authorities will take a hand in
the game. President Harding last
week secured an agreement from the
Union Heads that the men would go
back to work and again submit their
differences to the Labor board. They
agreed to GO so If they could main
! tain their seniority in the service. The
road heads refused to grant this slight
concession, whereupon Pres. Harding
asked the men to waive that also. This
thy very wisely refused to do, so the
whole, thing is blown up.
If the men were willing to let the
Labor Board sett'e the question, the
roads should hav, been willing to
concede this point but instead they
showed plainly they had no desire to
ompromise, but meant to fight it out.
Another meeting is being arranged
by the Unionheads at which time the
matter of g. complete tie-up will be dis
cussed, and in the meantime, Presi-
dent Harding is appealing to Congress
to convene and pass some legislation
The nature of what Is desired Is un-
certain, but is looks like a game Of
"pass the buck", in which the men are
to be the goat and the public pay the
bill.

COUNCIL REFUSED TO
CALL BOND ELECTION
Business Men Will Have to Get Busy
or Take Chance of Losing
The Proposition


eral Chamber of Comemrce accom-
panied by a dozen or more other
prominent business men, met with
the city council last night and presen-
ted a petition asking the coucil call
an election for the purpose of voting
$4,000 in bonds to aid the Kansas &
Oklahoma railroad.
After considerable skirmihsing a.
round quorum was secured and de-
bate started. The battle of words
waged for more than an hour with no
hope of an agreement, when the ques-
ton was put to vote.
City Attorney H. A. Gaskill worded
the motion to the effect that the coun-
Gil accept the proposition and order
the mayor and rouncil to call the cleo
ton as prayed for In the petition.
Councilman w. H. Vickers of the sec
ond ward made the motion which was
seconded and the vote was taken.
Burris Wright, J. T. Newoy, and II. F.
Malone voting no and W. "A. Yickers
and Joe Bryson voting yes.
The council, or such members as
opposed the proposition, seemed to
feel that the 302 men who signed the
petition as well as the dozen or more
present were not competent to pass
upon the proposition submitted by Mr..
Byers and outlined in the petition
1t was pointed out that the men
who signed the petition deemed it
advisable to have the line completed
to Greenough and head off any other
proposition and that it would be
worth $4,000 to the city to accom-
plish this However the mayor and
q majority of the council could not
see it this way and definitely rejected
the proposition.
This is going to work hardship
up the people of Liberal for the
reason that the need for immediate
action is imperative. The meeting of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
at Washington may be called any day
and the only thing left now is to raise
the money or a goaratee in lieu of
the bonds or let the B. M. & E. GO
ahead and get permission to build.
If you will take the trouble to look
at the map in the window of Taylor's
drug store you will see where the B.
M. and E. project is real menace
This line comes straight west from
Forgan through the very best terri
tory Liberal has and will cut off the
entire trade from the south Stop
and think what this is going to mean.
Several of the best firms in Liberal
have told the Democrat that they
would move to Hooker as soon as the
road was built, firms which have been
the malnstay OF the town IN the past,
and they are not joking.
One Of the most level-headed and
conservative merchants in the city
said to us this morning. eff they
build that road will have to get
out; the territory has been cut up
SO already that my volume is NOT
large enough to justify the stocks
have to carry. With this new road
south of us there will be no use in
buclxing the game"
This man pointed out that property
values would be cut possibly hall
and with the load Of taxation we
now have and the valuation reduc-
cd as it naturally would be Liberal
could do nothing but go backward
This is not newspaper talk, but ths
opinion Of man who is regarded
az one Of the best business men In
this part Of the state
It seems hard matter for some
