kad jos glaudziasi visados po

PrincipcIity Of Atlantis
Out to Prove Island Real

The worlds oldest controversy
concerns Atlantis, a legendary is
land in the west, beyond the P;l-
lars of Hercules, mentioned by
Plato, Pliny and other ancient
writer's, and said to ha vebnedeen
stroyed by an earthquake 1000
years ago, says Golfers.
AS the story was unheard of I'M
til 600 B. c., most people have con-
sidered it a myth. But others
have believed it; and the issue is
still alive after Is centuries. The
latest attempt to prove this island
existed was undertaken by a So
ciety formed in Denmark in 1888.
Calling itself the Principally of
Atlantis the organization soon had
a monarch, flag, currency, post
age stamps and Is, 900 members.

II think SO. If the property is cut
up wisely into small ranches. There

II have been shot at several times
in the past three weeks, once as

few days ago one of the owners of

was killed while he was rounding up

Powers stared at his foreman.
Good God! Isn't there any law in
this country"
Terry smiled grimly. PLENTY Of
it, and all on the side of the rustlers.
Our enemies elect the sheriff. and
the judge, who try thieves before a
friendly jury which acquits them"
Then there is no way of stopping
cattle-stealing?"
Eyes. There are ways" The steel.
barred eyes of Terry held to those of
the fastener. If we catch a rus
tier we stop him permanently.
The manager Of the Diamond Re-
verse B decided not to spare the
feelings of his boss. He had to know
the truth before he could make an
intelligent appraisal of the situation.
ut has been the law of Cattleland
ever since the early Texas days that
a horse or cow thief forfeits his
life if caught" Calhoun explained.
THAT was necessary then, because
the law hadn't reached the brush
country. 1t is necessary now, be-
cause the law has been taken over
by the thieves. You are shocked
because l have been shot at and
McFaddin killed. These attacks
were reprisals. Inside of a month
four men suspected of rustling have
been shot down from ambush"
"But-but-"
Il don't know who killed them, but
l can guess who ordered it done.
You need not let this worry your
conscience. Mr.. Powers. The Dia-
mond Reverse B is not guilty.
But this is terrible. A suspected
man has right to his day in court"
