The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad to
Tap the Territory.

Baltimore, Md, May 29.-The Manu-
facturers' Record says the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad Company, has decided
to parallel the Norfolk and Western
through Southern West Virginia, and tap
portion Of the most valua bic coal and
timber lands in the world. The new line
will be about 100 miles in length, running
from the mouth of Piney creek through
the valley to the GuyandOtte mountains.
and will reconnect with the main line of
the Chesapeake and Ohio at Barbours-
vile. 1t was estimated by the
state geologist last year that there
are in the country which will be con-
troled by the Chesapeake and Ohio with
its new line not less than 2.090, 600, 900 tons
of coal This is not the only wealth in
this region. 1t is all heavily timbered
with hard woods and when accessible,
the trees are worth S400 an acre The
Chesapeake and Ohio Company already
own more than 5000 acres of land in
Raleigh county and are buying every
thing that is offered in that vicinity. Pre-
liminary surveys have been made and
work on She new road will be begun this
summer.

A Sign of the Times.

Editor Morning News: The decision
of the general assembly of the Pres by
terian church in the case of Miss Sadie
Means is very significant. Not in the
sense that people who wish to see religion
overthrow may suppose, viz: that a
blow has been given to religion, for re
ligion is good thing, founded on man S
very nature, and for that reason it must
endure, but in that it shows the folly of
supposing that the decisions of church
councils in any way express, the will of
God.
Thirty years ago case such as this of
Miss Means would have received
very different treatment at the hands of
the general assembly. At that time the
doing of any work on Sunday was REBEL
ion against God, as | have often heard
changed, it seems that the will of God
has undergone a change also, if the de-
cisions of church councils are binding on
men.
History shows it to have been a com
mon thing for church council to nut the
question of the meaning Of Bible text,
or point Of doctrine to vote and thus de-
eide for men as to the will Of God, and
then for another council of the same
church afterward to vote on the same
questions and setaside the decision Of the
first council.
1t is a good sign that the church
is still doing as she has always had to do,
namely: Accommodating herself to the
advance Of modern thought. Church doc
trine is an evolution growing more aud
more in the direction of what is reasona-

CHICoo TOO oHIRPPY.
His Boast That He Has Sold Liquor
Brings a Charge of Perjury.

Charleston, S. c., May ga queer
case came up in the courts to-day as
sort of corrollary of the late dispensary
law. 1t was in the nature Of the arrest Of
Vincent Chicco, the Italian delicatessen
dealer, who was the first victim of the
dispensary. law in this city, and who was
frequently raided under the dispensary
law. Immediately subsequent to the de-
cision of the supreme court declaring the
dispenSary law unconstitutional a re-
porter on one of the city paper published
an alleged interview with Chicco, in
which the latter was reported as declar
ing, in the elation of the moment, that he
knew the law unconstitutional and that
he had been selling liquor all the time.
Gov. Iillman's attention being attracted
by the statement and it appearing TO him
that there was discrepancy between it
and an oath ChiCco had previously taken
to the fact that he had not sold any liquor
after the dispensary law went into effect
in order TO obtain refund of $50 on the
years license which he had originally
taken out, the governor last week sent
down peremptory orders to County Treas
urer Walter to have proceedings entered
against ChiccO for perjury.
THE TRIAL.
The case was heard before Justice to-
day. ChcCo was defended by George S.
Eegare. The principal witness was re-
porter for the Sun, who testified that in
an interview some time ago, Chicco de-
clared to him (the witness) that he had
been selling liquor during the time the
dispensary law was in effect.
George S. Legare the counsel for
Chicco held that the word "liquor," did
not mean whisky only; it referred
to all kinds of liquors, and on
this ground Mr.. Legare held that the
evidence given was not sufficient. Mr.
Legare said that Chicco had mentioned
that he had sold liquor, not specifying
any particular liquor. The Judge, after
reviewing the case, held that there was
not sufficient evidence to convict Chicco,
and dismissed the case

The Washington Post, published under
the very nose of congress, contains an
editorial in a recent issue that will do
New Mexico very great good at this par
ticular time. It reads as follows:
A book of nearly $50 pages, with val
liable maps and many descriptive illustra.
tions, has just been issued by the Bureau
of Immigration of New Mexico, on the
resources, climate, geography, geology,
history, statistics, present condition, and

that it has been compiled and edited by

tary of the board, is sufficient guaranty
that the work has been carefully and con-
scientiously done.
1t treats at elaborate length ofthe won
derful progress and improvement of the
territory in recent years, of this constant
increase in wealth and population, Of it,
climatic characteristics, of its agricul-
tural and mineral resources, of its schools
and manufactures, Of its irrigation sys-

to immigration, giving detailed statistics
by counties, which will be Of special inter-

Some Errors Relative to Land Entry
Requirements COrrected-The
a Making of Affidavits.

"The registers and receivers ofthe U. s
land Offices have been officially notified
that no United States commissioners
this, or any other territory, is authorized
to administer oaths or take proofs in
any business connected with the United
States land Office, and that all business
heretofore attempted to be transacted be-
fore such commissioners is void and OF
no effect"
7 he above, as published in the Las We
gas Optic of recent date and generally
copied by the Albuq and other ter
ritorial papers, is misleading in many re-
spects. Section 2294 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States as amended
by an act of congress approved May 26
1890, provides that:
'ln any case in which the applicant for
the benefit of the homestead, pre-emp.
tion, ,timber-culture, or desert-land law is
prevented, by reason of distance, bodily
infirmity, or other good cause, from per-
sonal attendance at the district land Of
fee, he or she may make the affidavit re.
quired by law before any commissioner
of the United States circuit court or the
clerk of court of record for the county
in which the land is situated, and trans
nit the same with the fee and commits
sions to the register and receiver"
Under the instructions issued by the
general land Office, at Washington, in
com liance with this law, no afidavits
will be received by the local land Offices
when the same have been executed before
notaries public, save only in the case Of
coal land entries.

A NEW RAILROAD.
The Gold and Copper Discoveries in
the Amizett District Attract the
Attention of Capitalists.

An important party of mining and rail
way men from Denver came down over thu
D. & R. G. AS far as Embudo yesterday. Tit
party consisted of Otto Mears, presiden
of the Rio Grande Southern; Eph Smith
partner of D. H. Moffat, Jerry Frank, O
Alamosa, and A. F. Wuench, mining ex
pert.
The gentlemen are on an inspection
and purchasing tour, and the visit will il
all probability prove productive of goot
results for New Mexico.
The recent gold discoveries in the
Amizett district have attracted the at
tention of Denver capitalists and they
have formed company with D. Fl. Moi
fat at the head, and have already pur.
chased several claims. A shipment Of
burlaps was made to the Copper Hills
district few days ago and shipments OF
ore will soon commence.
The most important result of tfe trip
will, without doubt, be the extension OF
the D. & r. G. from Embudo to Amizett,
distance Of forty miles. The extern
sion of the line would not only cause a
boom In the new district but would give
an impetus to business in Santa Fe and
Taos counties. Another probable cause
of the extension of the line, however, 10
the contemplated building of the Rock
Island from Liberal, Kas., to Maxwell
City, through the Cimarron county,
across the Taos valley. The action of
the Rock Island people will prove very
strong additional incentive for the build
ing of the new branch by the Rio Grande.
There are already good many pros
pectors and miners in the Amizett dis
trict and the news of the building of the
D. q R. g. road will prove great draw
ing card.

TRAINS TIED UP.
Extraordinary Snowfall East and
West Interfering in the Arrival
of Mails To-day.

All trains are more or less delayed
owing to the extraordinary snow storm.
No through trains were running in west
ern Kansas yesterday nor last night, ard
consequently no eastern mail is at hand
to day. At La Junta junction train
was made up night before last that
brought in the Denver and eastern Colo
RADIO and New Mexico mail this morning.
Just when the through mail will arrive Is
problematical, but IL is hoped to get
trains through Kansas drifts this after
noon and at the A., T. & 8. F. Office it was
said that three passenger trains west
bound would likely reach Lamy between
9 o'clock tonight and morning.
Out along the A. & p. road, west of Albu-
querque, all trains are delayed owing to
the heavy snow at Gallup, Winslow and
Flagstaff. At Gallup no such snowfall
has been experienced in years, and some
damage has been done to town prop
erty.
