Texas Saves Herd
Of $50 Buffalo

Goodnight, Texas.-The State of
Texas has come to the rescue of a
herd of ESQ buffaloes.
The herd, the pride of the late Col.
Charles c. Goodnight, was doomed to
provide sport for hunters this fall, as
the present owners proposed to dis
pose of the animals in a mighty last
hunt.
The proposal caused the Legislature
to pass a bill intended to ave the
herd. The bill declared the buffaloes
game animals and forbade their de-
struction.
Leading the fight to preserve the
herd is Fred Haskett, former West
Texas newspaper man. While the State
Game Commission is said to have
money enough to preserve the herd
and acquire land for it, Haskell pro-
poses to wage a Statewide campaign
for raising funds by public subscrip-
ton for use in purchasing the 100000
acre ranch for the herd.

THE HYPOCRISY OF WAGE
CUTTERS

For weeks PRIOR to wage cuts OF 10
to 20 per cent writers in iron and
steel journals carried on a persistent
propaganda in favor of wage reduc-
ton using the argument that the price
of iron and steel products were too
high to secure maximum consumption.
THE WAGE CUTS WERE MADE
and now the Wall Street journal states
"Steel producers see no point in the
suggestion that the savings from wage
cuts be passed on to buyers"
The New York Times, special from
Pittsburgh, states Investigation in
the industry indicates that it is the
view among leaders that steel prices
should be maintained"
Of course the real reason for the
wage cut was t transfer the money
saved in wages to the stockholders in
dividends. But telling the truth before
the cut would have brought forth too
much public opposition. Theref IRE,
the wage cutters camouAaged their
real objective with psychological dope
about the wage reduction being re-
Elected in reduced prices for steel pro-
ducts.
PERSONAL MENTION
T. C. Neil and family have been
called to Gold Hill on account of Sc
rious illness of his brother-in-law, R.
C. McCarn, the latter being a former
resident of Spencer and an employee
of the Southern Railway Little hore
is held for his recovery.

Alexandria, Va, where he filled a
temporary vacancy for some months.
Brother Sullivan is now working on
his old position at the Spencer Shop.
Brother Tom Green has returned to
work after being off on the sick list
for a week or more. There is an un-
natural look about the air job on the
second shift when he fails to show
up.
