The Morning Journal begs the
Estancia News pardon. This
aper justly takes us to task as
follows-''Shall we file suit against
the Albnquerque Morning Journal
for libel? In yesterday morn
ing's issue that paper credited
a clipping from theHerald to the
News. We wont kick on the
clipping the Journal used from
theNews without credit.if itdon't
give us credit for what don't be
long to us. The article referred
to says "there is not enough
money in the valley to be spared
for such an undertaking," refer
ring to the testing of wells as re
gards our irrigation district. The
necessary money for these tests
is not only in the valley, but in
the bank ready for use in mak
ing such tests. The $5000 asked
of congress is not to test wells
already drilled, but to drill other
test wells." Forget that libel
suit and have a cigar. Albu- j
querque Journal.
