Of Injury Done to the Crops by

Editors of farm papers in the north

Secretary Coburn of the state board OF
agriculture asking to what extent crops
have been damaged. In reference to
the matter Mr.. Coburn said today:
Probably judging from their own
experience, the idea seems to prevail IN
states further north that Kansas has
for some time been the victim of severe
cold and storms. Inquiries come to the
agricultural department from such
states as Iowa and Minnesota, asking
as to the extent done to wheat, fruit
and live stock 1 am pleased to be

RISE OF J. E. HURLEY.
Present Santa Fe Superintendent of
the New Mexico Division Got His
Start at Cottonwood Falls.

The rise of J. E. Hurley, division su-
perintendent of the New Mexico and
Rio Grande divisions of the Santa Fe,
is an example of how an industrious
and faithful man can rise from the most
. humble position on a railroad to one of
Importance and responsibility
About Is years ago a man by the
name of Jim Hurley was driving a
hack between Cottonwood Falls and
Strong City He carried passengers
from the railway station at Strong City
to the Union hotel at Cottonwood Falls.
An old and hospitable Frenchman by
the name of A. Ferlet was the proprie-
tor of the hotel, as he is yet, and was
Hurley's employer.
While waiting for the trains at Strong
City the hack driver would spend his
time inspecting the engines and learn
ing what he could about biography.
After time he secured a place hand
ling baggage at Strong City, and later
he became station agent at Florence,
and he gradually received promotions,
until now, he is a superintendent or
two large and important divisions on
the Santa Fe. His divisions are pro-
nounced by many to be the best of any
on the road and his most intimate
friends still call him by the name he
was known by when he was handling a
long whip and whirling it around the
ears of his roam team-just plain Jim "

RAILROAD NEWS.
The Santa Fe Has a Costly
Wreck Below Albuquerque.
Half a Dozen Cars of Cattle
Piled Dead in a Ditch
WITH ENGINE ON TOP.
Angry Mexicans Responsible for
the Disaster.
Fireman Fatally Injured-En-
gineer Jumps to Safety.

Albuquerque, n. NJ, March 2s-The
Santa Fe railway has had a very costly
wreck and the officials here are careful not
to give out the facts.
It is learned, however, that an east
bound cattle train with rush orders was
ditched near San Antonio, so miles south
of this city, Saturday, and that half
dozen or more cars are piled together and
the engine rolled down the embankment
Most all of the cattle in the cars were
killed outright, and those manned were
shot to put them out of their sufferings.
For some time the Mexican farmers in
the vicinity of San Antonio have opposed
the railroad company building ditch, and
it is intimated they are the cause OF the
wreck. In any event ties were placed
between the ties of trestle and the cat
tie train, running at high rate of speed
struck the ties abroadside and scattered
the train in every direction.
Special Officer Harris of the railroad
company, Sheriff BursOm and several dep
utfes of Socorro county are at the wreck
and it is reported today that they nave
fastened the deed upon certain people
living in the neighborhood 1t was ru-
mored here early today that the engineer,
fireman and a brakeman had been killed,
but a gentleman who reached the city
later states that the engineer saved his
life by jumping. The fireman was not
so fortunate and he received injuries that
will prove fatal.

FLIRTING WITH INGALLS,.

The PopuIists are pretending to have
fun out of the proposed nomination of
ex-senator John J. Ingalls, for congress
in the First district, but if there were
the faintest chance that he would ac-
cept such a nomination they would
rush to him with open arms. Mr.. In
gals has been lily treated by the pow
ers that be in the Republican party
Cy Leland and those who follow him,
although he is still a popular idol among
the masses of Republicans in this state,
and always will be. Likewise he is
popular among the PopuIists. They
like his independence of thought which
has as often armed them with weapons
to carry on their cause as it has the
Republicans. Mr.. Ingalls, is not a very
good partisan, which accounts for his
frequent arrival at the truth on public
questions. A partisan is like man
with one eye, who can not see what is
on the other side of his nose. Mr.. In
gals has never consented to the re-
movaI of an eye. His vision is Well
balanced. For this reason he as quick
Iy detects the vagaries of the POpulists
as he does the mistakes of the Repub-
licans.
He is not one who acquiesces in the
mental and political infallibility of gen
tIemen like Cyrus Leland. William Hig-
gins and James Simpson, high up in
the intellectual scale as we all know
them to be.
These high-minded men who now con-
troll or have recently controlled the
destinies of the Republican party in
Kansas have not been on strictly speak
ing terms with Ingalls,. They do not I'M
derstand what he is talking about. It
is said that the average man uses only
800 words in his conversation, while
there are some 10000 in the dictionary.
Messrs. Leland, etc, being of an econ
OmicaI streak gets along on his allow
ance very well, not counting those
words which are best represented by
blanks. There is always an antipathy
toward a man who talks in phrases that
appeal to a higher intelligence than one
possesses. We naturally resent it, as
a suggestion of our inferiority. One
can't help this feeling Leland can't
help it.
The POpuIists have taken advantage
of the breach between Ingalls,, the
brightest star in the Republican party,
and Leland, the man who appears to
own it, and have invited him over to
their ranks where he will be apprecia-
ted. OF course Ingalls, will not go, but
perhaps the invitation may hatter him.
