A vote for Judge Carey is a vote In
favor of immediate statehood and conse-
quently ruInOus taxation.

STATEHOOD SENATORSHIP
The Republican party of the territory
is pledged to state government. Repub-
lican success means statehood-that Wyo-
ming shall herself bear the entire and in
creased expenses of government. Should
Judge Carey be elected he will properly
take it as an endorsement of his oft ex-
pressed desire that this territory shall be-
come a state.
Do our readers know what statehood
means?
1t means an extensive and expensive
legislative body, costing not less than
$50, 900 b~iennially.
1t means the payment to the state Judi
ciary of not less than s35, 900 per annum.
1t means the payment of salaries and
expenses to state officers of not less han
SIS, ZOO per annum.
All the above expenses, let it be re-
~membered, would be ouer and above the
present expenses of the territory-that
is to say, the government of the United
States now pays the salaries ana expenses
incident to the legislative assemblies: it
pays the salaries of the judiciary; it
pays the salaries and contingent expenses
OF the governor and secretary Of the ter,
ritory.
A state would naturally have a greater
legislative body than the territory has; it
would have a supreme court separate and
distinct from the district courts, thus
greatly augmenting the number of judges
thereof; it would have at least one more
state officer, namely, a lieutenant COVER
nor.
NinetyJfue thousand dollars annually,
certainly not less, as the approximate
amount necessary to be raised, beyond and
IN addition to the amount of money noU
needed toIcarry on a state government.
Can the people OF Wyoming afford
such heavy additional expenses when no
commensurate good is accomplished?
Yet the election of Judge Carey means
that the people are in favor of doubling
taxation to send Judge Carey and some
other man to the United States senate.
viii the people consent to thus Cypress
themselves with taxes already heavy,
simply to crafty a few v~aulting ambi-
tons?
This is the issue on which Judge Carey
is making his canvass. May we say that
but for that issue and his hope of the
senate, he would not be a candidate?
His private business suffers from his
absence, it is said; that he is making a
great personal sacrifice in serving out his
present term in congress; granted. What
recompense, then, does he expect from a
hoped-for continuation of the personal
sacrifice? Why should lie longer suffer?

the North Penngylvania railroad. Four
men were engaged in the manufacture Of

were dangerously injured. John CASTOR,

flying afar as though they were 90 many
chips, while every pane Of window glass
within half mile OF the spot was shat

summoned to the aid Of the wounded men
as speedily as possible, and everything
was done to ease their suferings. II is
thought that all may recover except

Tho Result OF q Terrible Mine Explosion In
British Columbia.
VICTORIA, B. O., Jan. 25.-The result of
the terrible explosion at Pit No. 8. Of the
Wellington collieries, yesterday morning,
is that fity.seven lives were lost.
An eye witness states that he was about
one hundred yards from the pit when he
heard report like that Of large cannon,
and there instantly shot far into the air
dense mass OF black smoke and dust, which
converted the snow covered ground into
an inky deposit. When this BubSided q
portion OF tho fan house had been de-
stroyed, as well as the woodwork in the
ahait.
Manager Dryden Immediately proceed
ed To repairing the fan house, which was
quickly accomplished and the new fan
started again. The shaft timbers were de-
stroyed, go that the cages could not be
used, but pulleys and ropes were imme-
diately prepared for the work OF rescue.
The first man to come out OF the pit had
climbed, by means Of the cage wire cable,
through the shattered timbers to within
one hundred feet Of the top. A rope was

surface in an exhausted condition. A
second miner was also enabled to get ont
by this perilous method, but third,
when fifty feet from the top, relaxed his
hold and fell to certain death at the bot
tom Of the shalt.
Two men were then lowered as search
party, and they returned, stating that
nothing could be heard but calls from be-
low. Fortunately the mine had not hred,
so danger from this source was averted.
A temporary cage was made and lowered
to considerable depth, the miners climb
ing To 1t by means oiladdsrs, so that by
O'Clock 103 OF the 100 men in the mine had
been reached. One white man, Robert
Williams, the unfortunate who fell, was
taken out dead.
The explosion took place in the last
level, and in this twenty-five white miners
and number ol Chinese were impris-
oned. Fears that they were all killed
have been verified, for OF s o'clock this
morning all the white men we're carried
to the surface dead, and the WORK OF tax
ing out the Chinese was begun.

BURIED TREASURE FOUND.


Supposed to Have Been Hidden By Negro
1IiSsr Nearly sixty Years Ago.
NEw ORLEANS, Jan. 25.-Conslderable
excitement was created yesterday at Pass
Christian by the discovery Of pot OF
buried treasure. Cola NRrciSse, a colored
man, was plowinR in vacant lot owned
by Nicholas Buchert when the plow struck
q hidden object, breaking Of the point.
On looking TO see what he had struck, he
found curiously.shaped jar, such as are
still used In Mexico and South American
countries to hold water. Tbs jar was
broken and found to be nearly full Of silver
coin. They examined and counted the
coins, and found two hundred and nine
silver half dollRra OF American coinage
and two quarter pieces ranging in date
from 1874 to 1925. The remaining con-
tents consisted OF Spanish and Mexican
piRsteTs, and smaller coins bearing dates
from 1920 to 1929 The value Of the whole
10 estimated ct S2S5 As 10 how II got
there, the most plausible theory 10 that It
was buried by an old negro named OhRrlo,
who was q Blave Of Mime. A4nar, one Of
the first settlers Of the Pass. His cabin
stood near the spot, and being q miser, 1t
10 naturally supposed that he hid his
hoard In the ground about the year 1880.

Nearly Eight Thousand Miles Apart.
Spanish PoluoS-DOn Carlos Again
ON Dsek-othSr Foreign News.

LONDON, Jan. 25.-The Pail Nall Gasstt'
has accomplished wonderful feat, which
consisted OF conversation by wire be-
tween the editor, at the Office Of the Com
msrcial Gable Company, In London, and
Harry Norman, q staff correspondent ct
Vancouver, on Vancouver's Island, of
the coast Of British America. The linea
used were the MackSy.Bsnnett cable and
the Canadian Pacific railway telegraph.
The total distance Is 1919 miles. A con-
yerBation was carried on-Allowing for
breaks produced by q storm that inter-
rupted the wires, first between Ottawa
and Montreal, and then west Of Winnepeg
-consecutIvely for three hours. The wire
outstripped the sun by eight hours, the
time being l o'clock in the afternoon at
Vancouver when 1t was 9 o'clock at night
in London. The conversation began witha q
"bon Jour" message from the Pacific upon
the Vancouver morning, and in q few
minutes only @ Ralutatlon was returned
from London. Next came within six
minutes' time the following from the Pa
cific side: "There are with me the Mayor
Of Vancouver, F. 0ppenheimer, editor OF
the Vancouver NepS AdVetiser; Mr.. Cot
ton, Superintendent OF the Pacific division
Of the Central Pacific railroad telegraphs;
Mr., Wilson, who is at the key, and staff
Of teleRrsphists." After 9 half hour OF in
structions between the editor and CORE
spondent the letter said: II can see the
Pacific as I write. In few days shall
start afour thousand mile voyage in anoth-
or English ship-the Parthia-.over another
ocean, yet am able To report myself to you
and talk as quickly and easily as II We
were speaking through q tube at North

the electric interview Manager Ward, Of

pect to be through in few minutes.
Weather very severe In the North. Their

SPANISH POLITICS.
Don Carlos Again on Dsok-HIs claim to
the French Throne.

Don Carlos Again on Dsck-HIs claim to
the French Throne.
LONDON, Jan. 25.-The expulsion OF ex.
Queen Isabella, OF Spain, from the Psnin-
sula, has called attention to the fact that
the enemies Of the Queen Regent and the
infant King have been by no means inac-
tive Of late, although events Of more i'm
portance in other quarters have drawn at.
tsntion elsewhere.
The wife Of the late Spanish monarch
has never been popular with the lower
classes, her detestation OF bull fights and
other national sports having been undis-
guised, while the Church party has sup.
ported as openly IS it dared the claims Of
Don Carlos, who made such q gallant fight
dozen years ago for the throne Of his
ancestors. His failure in that attempt ex-
hausted his resources, and without sinewa
Of war to renew the attempt the dashing
Bourbon subsidized into very harmless In:
dividuaI, and his supporters and admirers
dwindled to small following.
The death OF his aunt, the late Com.
tesse De Chambord, put him on his legs
again, financially speaking, her immense
fortune having been bequeathed to him,
and OF course Don Carlos has become
again an object Of interest to the intriguers
by profession and the restless spirits who
are never contented with affairs as they
exist. He had even q sort Of spectral
claim TO the throne Of France, which, he
modestly acknowledges, should be his by
right, although he will refrain from urg-
ing It, coDtenting himself with sovereignty
over the Spanish people, whom he loves
80 much and who, he has no doubt, will
at no distant day call upon him to rule
over them.
A deputation Of the French Legitimists
who have never recognised the claims to
succession OF the 0rleanist branch waited
upon Don Carlos in Venice the other day
and hailed him as the heir OF the long
line Of French Kings and, in fact, the
rightful King Of France as we'll as oE Spain
under the salique law comforting the sue.
cession upon him the male line. OF course
Don Carlos knows that he has as much
chance Of becoming monarch Of Abyasinia
as ruler OF France, but In response to their
assurance that they await In confidence
the day when the admirable labor OF the
restoration OF the Christian monarchy
commenced by the Compte De Chambord
shall be finished by one OF his legitimate
successors, he thanked them for their
homage and fidelity, and cheerfully &C.
knowledged that as the Oldest Of the Bour.
bon family the French throne belonged
really to him. This done, he pAtriotically
said that he should never desert Spain,
endeared to him by the waves OF generous
bloodshed under his eyes, but It was his
duty to reserve all the rights belonging 10
his family.
The Oomte de Andigne, former Secretary
Of the Comte de Chambord, and the
mouth.piecs Of the population, interprets
this TO mean that Don Carlos intends To
relipquish his claims to the French throne
to his son, now aged seventeen, who will
ct the proper time rally around the white
flag Of the defenders Of social order and

No servants were employed and the
only theory held is that one OF the parents

Whoever did the terrible act carried the

set the water bucket on top Of 1t. The
parents are frantic.
