IDcrailed Near Ration.

The eastern mails which should have
reached Santa Fe last night will not be
in until tonight. The cause of the de-
lay is run-otf which occurred at Dillon
Junction near Ration about 8 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The cause of the de-
railment was a misplaced switch. The
engineer and fireman were badly bruised
but were otherwise uninjurea. The mail
clerk, Mr.. j. g. Baldridge, was quite
seriously hurt, sustaining compound
fracture and other injuries to the leg that
may necessitate amputation. He was
carried to the hospital at Las Vegas. All
the coaches we're derailed except the two
sleepers. These last came through last
night without mail or baggage. Pas
sengers for Santa Fe reached the city this
morning about O'Clock.

THE GREAT FIRES.
The Opinion is that CBscrupulous
Timber Pirates started Them.

Chicago, Sept. S.-A special from st.
Cloud, Mimi, says: "There are intima-
tions that the state senatorial committee
which has for months been Investigating
the frauds against the state in cutting
pine timber from the school lands will be
able to show some astonishing evidence.
It seems that timber pirates have appro-
priated millions of dollars worth of tim
Der belonging to the state, and also that,
in trying to cover up the steals, they
started fires which resulted in terrible
loss of life and property in Pine, Kanabe
and other counties. 1t is charged that
the lumber men
FIRED THE LANDS
which they improperly cleared, to render
the measurement of stumpage impossible
and to shut off the suit the commission
may attempt to bring against them.
"In the St. Paul hotel the scout em-
ployed by the committee to ferretout the
cases Of lumber stealing, has declared
that he has secured sworn evidence that
millions of feet of lumber have been
stolen and that as soon as these have
been cut, lumbermen have instructed en-
ployes to burn the ground over. Torches
thrust here and there into piles of lop-
pings in such dry season as this
START TREMENDOUS FIRES,
and whom the gaugers of the commission
come to measure the stumps on the
ravaged school lands, they are left with alb
solutely no basis for calculations as to the
lumber stolen.
"This is exactly what crooked lumber
men want, but, in starting fires, they
made too clean job. The fires spread
over 1000 square miles, destroyed hun
dreds of lives and devoured $20000,000
worth of property. Whether it can be
proved that these fires grew out of the
little ones kiudled by timber pirates or
not, is the question. There ls loud de-
mand in all the pine sections that the
manner of cutting timber be severely
re egulated."

Farm and Home Proprie.or.hIp.

The principal results of the Investigation
of farm and home proprietorship has been
given to the public by the census office. It
appears from the statistics gathered in the
report just issued that of the 1860, 152
families in the whole country at the date
of the investigation almost 10 per cent.
owned their farms and homes. OF the
families owning farms and homes almost
Is per cent. had membranes. and ~ per
cent. had no incumbrsnce. The number
of resident owners of land in the United
States was 6,066. All, to which must be
added any land owners who might be liv-
ing in tenant families. The farm families
numbered 4. 767, l79, of which GO per cent
owned their farms. OF the owning fami-
lies over % per cent had membranes on
their farms. In 1850 1856 per cent of the
farms were hired. In the cities containing
over l00, 900 population there were ], 94S, s34
home families, OF which aim ost % per
cent owned and "a per cent. hired, while
of the owning families IS per cent. owned
subject to i1cumbrance.
OF the 1896, 500 incumbered farms and
homes the total value amounted to So esq.,
29S 069. and the membranes aggregated
s., 49,, $40 563, or $3.50 per cent of the value.
The $50 957 farms subject TO membranes
were worth s3e54, 923 1866 and the incum-
branee was 81 ,0o5. S9o, 800. or s., 55 per cent
Of the value. The SOS, 1888 homes sub
iect TO incumbrance were valued at
81 632, 374, 9o4. and the incumbrance
amounted to sL,046, as, 603. or 1917 per
cent. of the value. In the cities having at
least 100, 900 population S.. 55o represented
the average value of each owned and in
numbered home. The annual interest
charge on each owned and incumbered
home in these cities was sI34 the highest
being Sass, in New York, and the lowest
amount $50, in Louisville. Denver had
the highest average rate of interest on the
incumbrance on owned and incumbered
homes, namely 7.s7 per cent; New Or
leans was second with 7.s6 per cent. New
York had the lowest rate. 4.9o per cent,
and Boston stood next with 5. IA per cent.
Over "A per cent of the incumbrance on
owned farms was incurred in buying real
estate and making improvements, and
over So per cent. of the membranes was
for the purpose of buying and improving
real estate, investing in business, etc.
Over 81 per cent. of the ineumorance on

In the September election of 1884 the
falling of Of the usual Republican ma
jority in Vermont foreshadowed the
defeat of Blaine; in 1sss q large ma
jori:y preceded the election of Harri-
son. and In 1892 an unprecedentedly
small majority was the beginning of that
Republican decline which two months
later became so violent as to sweep Illi-
nois, Wisconsin and other former Repub-
Iican states from their moorings and left
even Ohio in doubt for q week. Four
years ago this month the Republican ma
iority in Vermont dropped from its aver
age of %. 900 to IA. 600, and in the Noyem-
Der following the Republican party was
fearfully beaten in the congressional cleo
tons.
The New York Erening Post. q very able,
candid Democratic journal, recites these
facts and figures. and frankly confesses
that the Republican majority of nearly
% 600 in Vermont this year "means some
thing" and the Post says that there 10
every reason to expect a similar nantes
tation of public sentiment throughout the
North in November: that "oniy one thing
will save the Democrats in any state, and
that is atrocious laundering on the part of
the Republicans. 1t will not do
TO proceed anywhere on the assumption
that the Republican party could elect a
yellow dog this year.
The opinion of the Post is supported by
Chauncey Depew. who warns the Repub-
Iicans Of New York state against over
confidence; against local feuds and de-
testable nominations. Warner Miller is
hopeful; he looks for success in state and
nation. but he evidently thinks with De-
pew that 1t is quite possible for the Re-
puhlicans in New York state by bad man
agement and unworthy nominations to
throw away their opportunity. Mr. De-
pew believes the Democracy of New York
