Like a bolfc out of .the blue Bky flashed the war signal from; the
very heart of Europe, Across tha Atlantic its reverberations felled
to find us divided, neutral and unprepared, For fifteen years a body
of German reservists diVgotsad as citizens have been marching and
countermarching. There followed the asaassia sea monsters and the
air ship campaign of murder.
All the wlale we looked on either with simpering idiocy or
apnthy. Serbia? It was no affair of oura. Belgium? Why should
we worry? Foodstuffs soaring, war stuffs soaringeverybody mak '
ing money the mercenary, the poor of heart, the mean of spirit, the
blrak and barren of soul, could still plead the hipoensy, of uplift
ai d chortle. "I did not raise my boy to be a soldier." Even the
LoKitaoia did not awaken ua to a sens of danger, and arouse ua
from the stupefaction of, ignorant self-complacency.
Fit of all, on bended knee, we should pray God to forgive as;
Then erec, as men, Christian men, soldiery men, to the flig and the
fiay, wherever they lead ns, over the ocean, through France and
Flanders, across the low countries to Koln, Bonn and Koblenz,
tnm'itig the fortrf'88 of Ehrenbreitstein, into the Iihine as we pass,
and dimming the mouth of the jMoaelle with the debris of the ruin
we make of it. Then, on to Berlin, the Blaok Horse cavalry sweep
ing the Wilbeimsstrasae like lava down the mountainside, The
junker and the saberrattler flying before us, the tunes bing "Dixie"
and ''Yankee Doodle," the cry being 4,Hail the French repblio, bail
thu republic of Il'uasia, weloouie commonwealth of the Vaterland, no
peace to the kaiser, absolutism and the divine right of kings.

Word comes from Santa Fe that the legislature may adjourn
without providing money for assisting the farmers of the state in
procuring seed and oroppiog their laid.
It was the iotentioa.of the war board to provide money, when
reaFOOHbly secured, at a very low rate of interest, in order to aid the
meji of New Mexico iu roisingfoodituffs, wuen it is shown that ex
tra aorefl, or even normal crops, cannot b put in without finanoial
assistance.
The trouble lies in the senate, and the trouble-makers are the
time men who elc.od in the way of needed appropriations during the
last session of the legislature.
In varieu8 parts of the state, farmers are offered money at 8 per
cent, provided they will give mortgages on the land, on their orop3
end on their livestock as security. -
Farmers cannot afford to take such risks as sre entailed by mort
gages of all their property. Also, they cannot affrd to contract to pay
8 percent. They can raise enough food forthemselves, Those who
are pot farmers are asking them to raise enough food for them also.
If the farmer extends his operations beyond what ha would do
under normal oonditions, he should not have to take all the risk.
Other people who expeot to be benefited should assume their share of
whatever risks are to be taken.
If the legislature adjourns without providing for necessary assist
ance and bard times come upon tne people of this state in which
prices ere eo high that only the well-to-do can procure food, there
will no doobt in placing the responsibility, and in such contingency
here are few of ua who would oaro to bear that responsibility, Al
State Highway Goinntission to Help Out.
; At a meetiDg of the stale highway commission held in Santa Fa
the following resolutions were adonted:
"Whereas it is neceesary at this crisiB in the life of the nation,
and in view of the threatened shortage of foodstuffs in the United
States and in the world, that all the energies of the people be px
erted to the fullest extent for the planting and prodcotion of grain
and other crops, therefore , .
"Be It Resolved, that it is the sense of the State Highway Com.
