Letter From Texas
Kerrville, Tex.
 Feb. IS, 1922.
Dear Editor and friends,

Dear EdltOr ana frlenQS,
 am always anxious to read the Spectator, and especially the neighborhood correspondence.
 Our main crop here is grain and some corn. but prospect IS very poor, haven't had a good rain in almost year. The grain is dying and it is too dry to break land and time to plant corn.
 The ranchmen have had to feed their stock this winter which is unusual for this country. and makes feed very high. We haven't had ice but a few times this winter. Some children have gone to school barefooted all win ter here.
 The land that will do to culti- vate here sells for about $75.OO to SlOO OO per acre ana wont grow cotton, irish potatoes nor sweet potatoes and hardly ever make a good grain or corn crop. and the mountain land like the side of the Mulberry mountain but don t furnish as muchss pasture for goat land sells for S25. % per acre So some of you fellows who think Arkansas is hard place had bet ter come here and raise goats.
 The ranchmen here haul their wool and mohair on wagons with from four to eight horses to one wagon, over mountain roads. some as far as..50 miles and get from 15e to 25e ger 10. for 1t. Yours Truly.

That Stephens Party
 Skeered The Editor

dIlu WUSll HIS nervous system re- | cuperates from the awful strain l it has gone sthrough during the Tabernacle meeting he'll feel like | his old before-the-meetln' self. | and will be able to listen with a pleasant smile to the fresh crop of candidates as they tell how 1 they will abolish all taxes and ! give every man forty acres and | mule if the deer peepul will give em four wears at the official swill barrel. But we shore did raise crop of gray hars while i that Stephens Party hurled anathemas at our solid ivory. We 1 knew before they struck town that we were going to ketch h. hail Columbia. so We tried to soft en the blows by using our paper to bragg on the meetin. We put l in column after column, but 1t was no go. The whole gang jumped on us the first day and at every meetln' they preached right square at us till we shore got worried, but our worries are over now. The Stephens Part
 are old fashion kinder outadate
 and still preach that hell fire
 We mean grave-tre stuff. and
 they stirred up memories of 75 years ago when as a poor. ignor- ant boy we drank in every word of the rude eloquence Of our un-
 learned frontier Methodist and
 Baptist preachers a. theY painted in vivid colors a nell of burning
 birthstone until we could almost hear grooming and guashing of
 teeth. Then with pleading, out stretched arms these cd timer ant preachers would invite sin ners to flee the wrath of justly llncenSed God and take refuge in the arms of a crucjhed Savior 1 Do you think those old pioneer preachers failed to move their congregations? The sinner filled the mourner's benches and the Saintly fathers and mothers of the church crowded the altar and
 their prayers and SoGgs and shouts of victory could he heard
 for mile around. Our High- CT Criticism" doctors of divinity say those old Circuit riders" were all wrong about heart
 felt religion" that the old Bap- tist pioneer who told how Phillip and the Eunuch found much
 water" and came up out of the
 water" was just old ignorant
 backwoodsmen who lived before
 Modern Research" had thrown such wonderful LIGHT" on the scriptures. and that there was no water in that arid land and
 that Philip and the Eunuch saw
 a mirage, but 1t was the work of those Godly men oi the wilder
 ness and their followers who set up this mighty nation, carved
 from the wilds of an unknown continent and established the religious freedom of which these modern religious fakers are talk ing undue advantage. This Stephens Party shore did preach that old exploded nell awhI we mean grave-fire and damnation stuff right at Us till memories of the sermons of those old circuit riders made us quake in our boots we wear shoes now,
 but we have the sermon of those old pioneers in mind and we quaked in our brass-toed boots then. We tried to square the matter with the Stephens Party
 by sending hand to every ser vice, but that seemed to make 'em stir up the birthstone little more. That hell theory always did bother us. and often in the middle of some high old carousal

We should stop the washing and fill the gul,ies. drain the wet places, clear the thickets and stumrs, and substitute broad, open fields for a tumble of patches. Let us make our home places of beauty. Paint the home and outhouses; make an ample yard with beau tiful flowers and shrubs. Lay off walks and plant Towering bulbs, shrubs, and hedges along the approaches; set a good home orchard near it. bearing several kinds of fruit, and plant wild spreading shade trees.

riculturalists, made suggestions for
remedial measures. most of them
touching on reduction of freight
rates and retail prices.
Several speakers also advocated
acceptance by the government of
Henry Ford's offer for the Mus
Gle Shoals plant.
A number of representatives of
industries dependent on agricul-
ture followed the agricultural
speakers.
Thomas e. Wilson Of Chicago,
president of the Institute OF Amer
lean Meat Packers, declared the
agricultural depression has been q
great factor in reducing "tremen-
dously' the value of the packer in
dustry output, upsetting stability
by forcing livestock and packing
house products belo,. the general
level of commodity values and
turning a small rate Of profit into
large loss"
The packer, he said, has done
everything within his power to as
sist agriculture in tlding over the
critical period. The farmer, he
added, "has done much OF his IL
quidation through the packer and
the packer has succeeded in get
ting this huge volume of produce
ton, surplus and all, over to the
consumer. though at great loss"
Mr. Wilson suggested much
might be done by Increasing meat
consumption.
Effects of falling wheat markets
have been destructive" to the mill
ing business. James II. Bell of
Minneapolis, asserted, adding there
was too much competition in the
intermediary steps between the
producer and consumer.

New Irish Ministers Are In
stalled in Office in the

Are on Duty.
(By The Associated Press.)

Dublin, Jan. 2S (by the Assocl-
ated Press. 1.-The new Irish minis
ters are now installed in office in
the city hall. They are there in the
capacity Of a provisional govern
ment, but Mansion house continues
headquarters of the Irish repub-
lie" Arthur Griffith, president
Of the dali cream. has his offices
there.
Armed sentries of the Irish re-
publican army were on duty out
side the city hall today when
members of the provisional gov
eminent entered officially to occu-
ny the premises. Michael Collins,
head Of the provisional govern
ment, was one Of the first TO ar
rive.
The new government Is being
sharply pursued in the newspaper
The irish Republic, of which Aus
tin Stack is the principal director
and editor, and Liam Mellowcs
and ErsRine Childers are inspir-
ing spirits. Tomorrow 1t will dis
cuss the legal position OF the new
government after the handing over
the powers at Dublin Castle. 1t will
argue that unless the ministers
have been sworn in as privy coun-
cillors and given the powers pro-
vided for in the home rule bill Of
1920, their whole status is Illegal.
1t has been pretty clearly rec
ognized by lawyers that the new
government cannot, during the
transition stage, depend on techni-
cal legal powers, but must depend
on the willingness of the people to
obey it. 1t has been suggested
that later all its proceedings can
be validated IN an act of indem-
nifty.
Many Dublin traders today re-
sumed the selling of Belfast goods
which had lain in their stocks since
the boycott was imposed.

NO DIPHTHERIA CASES
REPORTED TO HEALTH
OFFICERS IN IS DAYS

As a result of the intensive cam
paign carried on here by city and
county health officers against diph-
liberia, there has not been case
of that disease reported in this city
for fifteen days.
In the middle Of December, el2v-
en- cases of diphtheria were re-
ported and placed under treat
ment. The health department
acting on the knowledge of the
coming vacations from school, and
the consequent public GATHERINGS
increased, isolated all cases and
quarantined all contacts The
health officer, the city school
nurse, Mrs. Little and the county
nurse, Miss Lupe Leon, made a
thorough search for Carriers" and
missed cases. The children in the
schools were carefully examined.
through cultures taken from their
threats. Eight carriers" were de-
tected and placed in quarantine
until further cultures indicated
freedom from germs. The employees
of the dairies were examined also
A statement given out recently
by DR.. Frederick G. West, county
and city health supervisor, reads
as follows;
at has been a gratifying feature
to note that physicians are report
ing cases promptly and issuing in
telligent instructions, and that
families are becoming more faith
full in their compliance with the
rules governing isolation and quar-
antine, especially under the try
ing circumstances of holiday times
"As result of this vigilance and
early precaution there isn't a case
of diphtheria in Albuquerque or
Bernalillo county, nor has one
been reported in the last fifteen
days. There are very few cities in
the United States that are not re-
porting daily deaths from this
scourge."

GEN. PERSHTHG
WON'T ACCEPT
SERVICE MEDAL
tBy The Associated press1

Washington, Jan. 23.-Gen-
eral Pershing declined today 10
accept a distinguished service
cross voted him by the army
board OF awards and which
Secretary Weeks had planned
to bestcw on him at a sur
prise party" arranged to take
place in the war secretary's
office. The plan was cancel
led when the general discov-
cred the secret and went i'm
mediately to Mr.. Weeks house
to declare his undeservedness
of the honor.
General Pershing declined
the award of the medal Of
honor for the same exploit
concerned in today's presenta-
ton. This was an incident oc-
curing when he was briga-
der general in the Philippine
islands in 1913.
The citation made public
earlier in the day by Secretary
Weeks on which the boards
decision was made, follows:
"For extraordinary heroism
in action against hostile fanat-
ical Moros at Mt, Bagsak,
Jolo, Philippine islands, on
June Is, 1918. He personally
assumed command OF the as
saulting line at the most crlti-
cal period when only about
fifteen yards from the last
Moro position. His encoura ge-
ment and splendid example of
personal heroism resulted in a
general advance and the
prompt capture of hostile
stronghold"

Europe's Advantages.
Telling OF the advantages which
Europe enjoys because OF its easy
access to the sea, 1.-The surest and
cheapest transportation facility"
the president said that in the Unit
states lis presented one of the
worlds most attractive opportuni-
ties for seaways many hundred
miles inland"
THE heart OF the continent,
with its vast resources in both agri-
culture and industry" he added,
would be brought in communica-
ton with all the ocean routes by
the extension of the st. Lawrence
waterway project. To enable ocean
going vessels to have access to all
the ports of the great lakes would
have q most stimulating effect upon
the industrial life of the continents
interior. The feasibility of the
project is unquestioned and its cost
compared with other great en-
gineering works, would be small"
Europe, Mr.. Harding said, is now
setting its hand to the development
OF a great continental waterway,
connecting the Rhine and Danube,
which will bring water transporta-
tton from the Black to the, North
sea, from Mediterranean to Baltic.
If nationalistic prejudices and
economic difficulties can be over
como by Europe" he asserted,
they should certainly not be for
midable obsta cles to an achieve
ment. less expensive, and giving
promise of yet greater advantages
to the people of North America.
Not only would the cCst of trans
portation be greatly reduced, but a
vast population would be brought
overnight in immediate touch with
the markets of the entire world.
The national policy, he said.
should be to develop industry and
commerce so that they might
prosper side by side.
To this end, he continued, en-
enlargement should be given to
every practical proposal for water
ing arid lands, draining swamp
areas, retaining cut over forest
areas and for protection of fertile
valleys from inundation.
He declared there must be new
of the farmers place in
the social and economic scheme of
the country.
The time is long past" he said.
when we may think of farming as
an occupation fitting for the man
who is not equipped for or had
somehow f. lied at some other line
of endeavor. The successful farm
er Of today, far from being an I'M
