The importance of wheat farm
ing in the United States, in the
north western part of which the last
of the crop is noS being harvested,
is yearly increasing. The United
States produces far more wheat
than any other country. 1t is the
pranary Of the world, one-hfth OF
the total crop being grown in this
country. One-third of our annual
product of more than five hundred
million bushels is sent abroad in
the raw state to say nothing of the
exports of -four The mills are be-
ing built in the heart of the wheat
country SO that the ports that get
the wheat exports will also receive
the flour exports. Both wheat
growing and the making OF wheat
-four in this country are prosper1ne
and increasing rapidly.

THE AUGUSTA PROPERTY.

Ii the present plans for the de-
velopment of the Augusta mine
are carried out, it will no doubt
be one of the greatest mining en-
terprises ever undertaken in Gun
nison county, and in fact equalled
by few in the state. The first To-
cation made on the Augusta lode
WAS about 1880. The property
finally drifted into the hands of
men who made extensive prepa-
rations for the development of the
mine, but by series of unfortunate
incidents, including the deaths of
two or three of the principal non-
resident owners, work was sus-
pended, and considerable time
elapsed before the heirs of the de-
ceased owners would allow the
mine to be operated by disinter-
ested parties. When at last
bond and lease on the property
was secured by S. @. Robinson
the production of the mine, though
limited, has been steadily increas-
ing during the last few years.
The expense incurred in getting
the ore to the railroad, was a Sc
rious drawback to the operation of
the property, and one which not
only limited the production of the
mine, but also detracted greatly
from the value of the product.
To avoid this expense, and at the
same time keep up the production
of the. mine during the winter
months, necessitated the outlay of
a vast amount of capital, which
would have to be expended in driv-
ing cross-cut tunnel from
point where the product of the
mine could be brought to within
easy reach of a reduction plant,
and admit of the mine being work
ed steadily. Capital, however, is
ever ready to aid a proposition
possessing the merits of the Au-
gusta, and consequently, work on
the new tunnel began last fall at a
point from which nearly 1000 feet
of depth can be gained on the great
Augusta vein.

While general business condi-
tions did not reach the standard
expected this summer, Crested
Butte continues to possess all the
resources of climate and scenery
that gave it its original claim to
general attention, and it has made
notable progress in the way of pro-
viding entertainment for its visit
ors, whether these are health, pleas
ure or investment seekers. Crested
Butte has many desirable features
as business center and is capable
of maintaining a much larger vol
ume of production and trade than
we now have. One of the most
favorable features of the local stu
alton is the presence of large bodies
of cheap coal, which have been
extensively developed in the past
twenty years. The surrounding
mineral bearing territory is practi-
cally a virgin field of unlimited
wealth awaiting development.

FILIPINO GOVERNOR RESIGNS.
Declares the Military Do Not Recog.
nize Civil Government

A dispatch from Manila yesterday saws:
The governor of the town Of Cagayan, in
the province of Nisamis, Island of Minda-
mao. has resigned, claiming that the mill
tary authorities there do not recognize
his authority in refusing to receive his writs
of habeaS corpus.
Some months ago many Of the leading
officials of Msamis province were arrested
because they rendered a banquet to an in
surgent colonel, and because it was proved
that they had also contributed funds to
the insurgent cause. At that time General
George w. Davis, commanding at Zam-
boanga, Island of Mindanao requested that
the province be transferred from civil to
military control. The military authorities
in Misamis refused to allow the prisoners
TO be represented by lawyer sent by the
civil commission from Manila for that pur-
pose, claiming the arrested officials to be
prisoners OF war. r.-
Later General Chaffee instructed General
Davis to release the prisoners In question,
and notified the civil authorities when and
where they could arrest them should they
desire to do so. But the fact that their
offense was committed before the passage
Of the law Of sedition makes further ac-
ton in the matter improbable, General
Chaffee deeming it inadvisabIe that civil
ians should be tried by a military COM
mission. 80 - -:
Senior LerIna. the newly elected governor
OF Bataan province, fled after his election
when he was called upon to account for
$4,000 OF insurSent funds. He is still MISS
ing. -
The provinces under civn rule, as well
as Manila, have been flooded with q ouan-
tity of pamphlets printed in Hong Kong by
the Filipino junta. These pamphlets are
copies OF memorial by the junta which
mas been forwarded to President Roosevelt
The memorial expresses sympathy at the
death of Mr.. Mckinley. and assures the
american people that sooner or later the
Fllinipos are bound to have Independence
The junta says it has reliable Information
that most of the pacified provinces are
only held IN check by superior military
forces The pamphlets say that the et1u-
Gated t1lipinos appreciate American Rov-
ernmental ideas. but when the bread of
national life is asked for 1t does not snf-
flee to offer stone. even though that stone
be a diamond.

resolute and persistent attempt has been

to break up the cambria in Calabria
and other provinces where their depreda-
tons have become into3Iierable. The most
satisfactory result Of these attempts thus
TAR was the recent capture Of Joseph Mu-
solino. the most terrible and most dreaded
OF all the brigands in Italy. Musolino be-
gan his criminal career In 1898, when he
was condemned to a long term In prison

numbering several hundreds Of men, aided
by a small army Of police agents has been
vainly endeavoring to effect Musolino's ar
rest. and to claim the reward Of 5000 which
was promised to the captor. In many cases
