Senator Vest, of Missouri, VIII Make
Aggressive Fight to Rid the COun-
try of Anarchists,

Washington, Dec. 2.-Backing for
legislation looking to the punishment
of assaults upon the presidents of the
United States or any of the members
of his cabinet is not to come from
the majority side of the senate and
house. Senator Vest, of Missouri, one
of the most influential and conserva-
tive members of the minority, has
come to Washington with renewed
health and vigor after a summer in
the west, and early in the session he
will offer a resolution calling upon
the senate judiciary committee for
information as to the legal obstacles
in the way of legislation designed to
reach anarchy. The senator proposes
that not only shall the emigration
laws of the country be amended so
as to exclude recognized anarchists,
but he wishes to devise q plan by
which those who are now in the coun-
try may be deported.

A ROAST FOR JENKINS.
President Roosevelt Removes the Oklaho-
ma Governor and Gives His Reasons
for So Doing.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Thomas Fer
guson, of Watunga, Ok, was appoint
ed governor of Oklahoma. He is ed-
itor of the republican paper there
and chairman of the republican ter
ritorial committee. 1t is understood
that one of the conditions of his APP
pcintment was that he resign his po-
sition as head of the territorial COM
mittee. In connection with the APP
pointment of Mr.. Ferguson, President
Roosevelt made the following state
ment: ''Gov. Jenkins, of Oklahoma, is
hereby removed because of his inn
proper connection with a contract
between the territory and the Okla
homa Sanitarium company. The de-
cision is based purely upon his own
written statements and his oral eX-
plantations of them at the final hear
ing One of the duties of the terri
torial governor is to enter into a
contract with some person or corpo-
ration for the keeping of the insane
of the territory. Gov. Jenkins made
such contract with the Oklahoma
Sanitarium company. a corporation
the promoters of which reserved $1O,-
900 of its stock for the governor and
subject to his orders. In the gov
ernor's explanation of this he told
the promoters at the time they de-
sired him to sanction the contract
that it was an important contract
and had some friends whom L would
like to have interested and to whom I
owed some political obligations
which I would not be able to pay
by appointment or anything of that

G. w. Neff is in The city from

pany is exploring the coal fields of
that region. The company is
known as the Black Diamond Coal
company and its officers are Jesse
Ash. president; n G Mcconnell,
vice president; G w Netf, secre-
,ary and general manager All of
these people are of Florence. Mr..
Neff has number of samples from
their mine
The coal fields of the Black Dia-
mond Coal company have been
proven to be at least 1900 acres in
extent, the coal in its territory be-
ing opened up in three places and
has been developed sufficiently to
prove its value as coking coal.
The basin is easily accessible by
railroad.
When The TRIBUNE representa-
tive approached Mr. Neff as to the
sentiment of the people of Wet
Mountain valley regarding the
proposed Florence Southern rail
road, which. will enter that district
from Florence, he said that the
inhabitants of the entire valley
are anxious to have an outlet to-
ward Florence and would far rnth-
er have the road built from here

activity in mining circles is being
experienced. The famous Bassick
nine is working steadily, taking out
both mill and crude ores. Consid-
cradle work has been done during
the last year by the Aburdix Min
ing company, the development
work being chiefly prospecting and
the prospects at this time are for a
big paying proposition. Both
the above properties are in Queri-
da Aside from the above consid-
erable prospecting is being done
in other districts.
Since the construction of the
Rio Grande branch from Canon
City to Westcliffe quite little
activity is also being experienced
there, both in mining and real es-
tate lines. The proposed Florence
Southern railroad has been under
consideration for number of
years and there isn't doubt but
that it will be built within the next
three or four years. The Rocky
Mountain Smelling and Refining
company will in all probability con
struct the line"
Some time ago a representative
of The TRIBUNE approached one
of the company on this subject,
and in reply he said, "Yes, the

hackers of the new railroad are

A FEW SUGGESTIONS.

~ FEW SOOOES IOINS.
If you want to sell list your prop
erty with the agent whom you
think will do business for you most
sstisfactorily-one to whom peo-
pie come to buy-ono who adver-
tises literally, far and wide, for
customers, and treats them right
when they come. and one who will
show your property to the custom
ers.
If you want to buy, go to the
same one-he knows titles. You
want clear title.
If your property or life is not
insured you are taking chances
long ones Most of us can't af-
ford to take them. If you can't,
go to the agent who knows the in
surance business and is RESPONSE
BILE citizen. Don't fear you won't
get the lowest rates-he don't let
business get away from him by
charging more than others-that
would be ridiculous.
Loans made when security Is
satisfactory.
Deeds, mortgages, leases and the
like. drawn skillfully on short no.
