variably apply those principles to concrete
situations, their problems would be more
than half solved.
In the dispute over the Red River
lands there were the elements of Just such
tragic troubles as the nations of Europe
have experienced intermittently since time
immemorial But when the United States
Supreme Court, backed by the Constitu-
ton, stepped in, the armed antagonists
stepped out-and settlement undoubt-
edly fair to both sides was made.
This moral may seem far-fetched. But
isn't it worthy of consideration in this
pilotless, rudderless. storm-swept age?
The other moral, less broad, has more
obvious bearing upon our own history
In the formative days of Texas and Okla
homa-and the present generation can re-
call the time when the latter was the
Indian Territory-land was about the
cheapest thing in this part of the world.
For pair of brass-toed boots or Texas
saddle, one could buy enough land for a
thousand wells such as now dot the Texas
Oklahoma border country. But the posi-
bility of finding great wealth beneath
the soil waShed-sometimes-by the wa
tiers OF the Red River did not enter the
;maginations of the men of that day. Even
the ableSt statesmen of the time failed
to look ahead in this respect. What was
a mile of land, more or less, to the from
tier cowman? IT is to be noted that the
phrase more or less" represents the lib
erality--or laxity, as it may now appear
of that early day. Nowadays purchasers
of land sometimes refuse to accept deeds
in which the phrase is used; they demand
exact mctes and bounds, and their insist
ence is measure OF their foresight
The banks OF river or other stream
constitute an uncertain boundary mark.
Sometimes a river is called natural
boundary" But is it? For practical
purposes it may be natural" only in the
most adverse sense. The erosion of a
rivers banks, change in a streams
course brought about by a shrinkage or
upheaval of the earth's crust-,both of
which arc indisputably natural processes
cannot but affect property claims
Moreover, the question of a rivers navi-
gability is a poor test; yet head of navi-
CATION" is phrase that appears in many
old land patents and transfers.
Such issues were among those that the
Supreme Court had to consider in the
oil-land dispute between Texas and Okla
homa. Thus did the shortsightedness
of earlier times threaten serious conse-
quences; thus did it actually result in
much trouble for the claimants of the
land which is now producing wealth of
which the old boundary-malicrs never
dreamed.
Man is prone to become so engrossed
in his immediate affairs as to overlook
the possible issues of the future. When
ever and wherever real property is con-
cernHl, the use OF haphazard, "more-or-
less" methods will almost surely store
up trouble for somebody.

well, but objects to repeating any sem
tence to himself, "out loud" lest listen
ers think that he is crazier than be thinks
he is, he might do we'll to post the nurs-
cry precept on the windshield of his au-
tomobile, where he could see it every
time the mania struck him.
This idea is suggested by recently
published story about Jimmy Murphy,
champion automobile racing driver. king
of Speed Scores Speed Maniacs," says the
headline The unthinking might say that
Murphy should practice what he breaches,
He docs. Racing is his profession. Mani
acy at the wheel is his aversion. Sup
pose a person who knows how to use a
butcher knife or a razor should undertake
to perform a surgical operation. Well,
he would be no more of a maniac than
is the person whose knowledge Of auto
mobiles is just sufficient to enable him
to operate a car on a smooth road at a
moderate rate of speed. And there is
scarcely more danger in the one case
than in the other.
To attempt race-track speed on the
average road or street, especially in a
car built for ordinary service, is prima
facie evidence of a persons lack OF quail
fication for the racing game.
Jimmy Murphy has several rules for
racing which he says have enabled him
TO gain premier place in his profession.
The first in the list applies to the driv-
ing of an automobile under all conceivable
conditions and circumstances: Courage
without caution is perilous pace-maker."
What is it that causes the amateur
speeder to throw caution to the winds,
and to think that he is displaying admir-
able courage when he imperis the lives
OF other motorists on the road, those Of
any passengers he may have in his car.
and his own life as well? According to
Jimmy Murphy, who knows human ma
ture as we'll as the racing game. it is
vanity-sheer conceit. Instead of display
ing masterful qualities, the speed maniac
succeeds only in showing that he is NUT
ton-headed, says the speed monarch.
This from man who holds the worlds
record for speed on a regulation track
He has witnessed many tragic automobile
accidents. and participated in several.
Cne might think that his experience
would have Injured him to such scenes.
But he says that it has made him all
the more susceptible. 1T fairly makes
my skin crawl" he told an interviewer.
ito see chances taken by your swagger-
ing driver of the boulevards."
Speeding has its proper place. That
place is the race track, where hundreds Of
thousands of dollars have been invested
to reduce the element of danger to a
minimum. But even there, overturns,
crashes and collisions occur. Jimmy Muir
ply would no more think of racing under
conditions chosen by speed maniacs ofhigh-
way and street than he would OF racing
his car backward in the bowl" where
he has scored the many victories that
mark him as master OF his profession.

Altho the basketball team sent to

last year came home with second
place hOnors in the lightweight d.

fully as we'll in capturing third
place in the same class last week.
This may not sound quite reason
able and we must admit that on the
face Of things our allegation doesn't
seem just right.
But to take a look at the records
for the present and past seasons.
In 1922. including the tournament
series, the locals registered $50
points against their opponents 44O
making a lead for Rawlins Of 10.
In 1923 they ran up 784 tallies

COLORADO SOL0NS
HEAR LOCAL Man
KLEBER HADSELL APPEARS BEFORE
SENATE Committee IN BE.
HALF Or FABRIC Law

Whether or not Colorado will be
the third state in the Union to enact
a truth-in-fabric law is the question
which has recently been of great
interest to the ~woolgrowers Of Wy
oming and other western states.
Last week, Kleber Hadsell, a resi-
dent of Rawlins and vice president
of the Wyoming Woolgrowers Asso-
citation, appeared before the Colorado
senate committee in behalf Of the
Wyoming woolgrowers and. with the
aid of A. c. Johnson, appearing IN
behalf OF Colorado woolgrowers. an
sv'ercd the arguments advanced by
retail clothiers in their fight against
the enactment Of truth-in-fabric legis-
lation.
Messrs Hadsell and johnson net
the various arguments made before
the committee in encouragement OF
the measure, stating that the con-
sumner. as in the cast of oleomar-
garine and features OF the pure food
law. had a right to know, to a fair
degree of exactness the quality o.
the goods he was buying, and thai
while the enforcement of the Law
might be difficult, nevertheless II
should be attempted as the step In
the direction of fair play for an I'M
portant production of the country.
The Attorney for the Retail Mer.
chants bureau. present at the hear
ing stated hat a truth-in-fabric law
would be only n burden to the re-
t~ailers: hat the law would be i'm
possible OF enforcement and that. ap.
plying only within the state. 1t would
afford eastern mail-order houses OPP
~portunity to flood the state with in
ferior unmarked goods.
The Colorado truth-in-fabric bill
passed the house with but one repre-
sentative voting against II.
Friends OF the bill predict that II
will be signed by the governor should
the senat act favorably.
