"TALKEE, TALKEE, TALKEE"
One can imagine the sneer on the
faces of the Mexicans as they shot
down those nineteen defenceless Am-
ericans south of El Paso on Monday,
in the coldest of cold blood. One can
imagine their grins as they thought
of the reprisals the United Staxs
government would visit upon then' for
the murders. "Talkee! Talkee!
Talkee! Gringos cowards; no do
anything but talk."
Thousands of Americans have been
murdered in Mexico since the begin-
ning of troubles down there, and not
one single thing has been done by our
government about it. Certainly it does
seem as if the "watching and waiting"
has gone the limit.
A deal was made this week by which
the Purcell Register corporation takes
over the Lexington Leader plant, giv-
ing Guy Hardie, owner of the Leader,
stock in the Register company in lieu |
thereof. Mr. Hardie will be actively
connected in the future with the Reg-
ister, moving from Lexington to Pur-!
cell. It is understood that the Leader]
will be continued, but simply as an
adjunct to the Register, the Register
company owning both papers and put-
ting some man in charge of the Lead-
er office.
Mr. Hardie has made a success of
the Leader, and proven himself a
firstclass newspaper man. The change
will broaden the field for his activities
and the Transcript is certain he will
"make good" in the highest degree.

TOWN BUILDING
What has the new year in store for this town ?
Are we to go backward, stand still or go ahead ?
The towns which are going ahead are the towns
in which a few enterprising citizens work for the good
of the community.
Every town has its drones and its twilight sleepers.
We have them in this town, but one good live wire
can overcome the handicap of half a dozen slackers.
The drones can be galvanized into life and the
slackers may be shamed into enlisting in the army of
progress.
It is the knocker whose influence is hardest to
overcome.
Often a town knocker is a man of influence and
wealth.
He knocks because, to him, progress may mean a
little more tax to pay, a little more work to do or a few
more improvements to make in order to keep up with
the procession.
Sometimes he knocks because he fears that in the
hustle and bustle of progress some new leader may de-
velop who will unseat him from his place as the town
cracle and advisor.
So he preaches the gospel of let-vvell-enough^alone.
And in these days that gospel means stagnation.
This town must not stand still.
The whole country is entering upon an era of
prosperity beside which the fat years of the past will
be as nothing.
We must keep up with the procession, take advan-
tage of everything that comes our way and exert our-
selves in keen rivalry to outdo our neighboring towns
in going after the things which do not come our way of
their own accord.
Let us scrape off whatever rust has accumulated
upon our bright-work, oil up the bearings, build a rous-
ing fire under the boiler of our town-building machine
and tell the good engineer at the throttle to "throw her
wide open."
The rest of us will furnish the fuel.

Rye Ham Sandwiches.—Chop fina
some cold boiled ham and some oris?
pickles, using one-fourth as much
pickle as ham. Mix with a mayon-
naise dressing and spread on buttered
rye bread.
Raisin Sandwiches.—Chop equal
amounts of seeded raisins, walnut
meats and add tart jelly to mix.

Mr. Ed Moody is on the sick list.

Ethel Harris has been sick, but i

We regret to learn of Mr. Griffin's
losing another good heifer the other
day. This makes quite a number of
cattle and horses Mr. Griffin has lost
this year. It certainly would dis-
courage most, of us, but not So with
him. He just goes right ahead with
a jolly smile and pleasant words for

befallen him.
DENVER ITEMS
Wr. L. Wilkerson and Silas Minton
of Gotebo are visiting in the Denver
neighborhood this week.
Herbert Ball is taking "banjo" les-
sons under Prof. Owen Wilkerson
One of the first things he learned not
to do is to tighten a damp he:id and
then sit down close to a hot stove. He
learned this all by himself at the cost
of a new banjo head.
Everybody come to Enterprise

there will be a musical program worth
