CLEVELAND NOT A CANDIDATE.-A
close personal friend of Grover Cleve-
land said in New York yesterday that
the ex-President is not considering him
self as a presidential possibility. "When
the subject was preached to Mr.. Cleve-
land" said he, che replied that he
could hardly conceive of any emergency
which would bring him the offer from
the party, of another nomination, and
that it was equally difficult for him to
conceive of any emergency that would
lead him to accept such an offer, even
were it made"

MINERS PERISH. Thirteen miners
were killed and great damage was done
By an accidental explosion of gas yes
terday afternoon in coal mine 20, at
Bonanza, Ark, twelve miles from Fort
Smith. When the explosion occurred
there were about IFS men in the vari-
Gus shafts. All escaped without injury
except the thirteen who we're employed
in entry *" the scene of the explos-
ion. The force Of the explosion was
terrific and timbers were torn from the
walls of the passages for several hundred
yards at the mouth of entry 'K." The
passages we're so completely INSTRUCTED
that the work of rescuing the entombed
men was tedious in the extreme, and
several hours were consumed before the
first body was found. 1t is thought that
the gas was accidentally ignited by
miners lamp. The miners who escaped
with the aid Of others summoned from
nearby shafts Immediately set about
clearing the passages in the hope that
some of the thirteen entombed men
might have survived the explosion. BY
nightfall six bodies had been recovered
and the rescue work was still in pro-
gress. 1t is now considered certain that
all OF the entombed men have persisted.

we're injured in rear end collision on
the Brooklyn elevated railway near
Jamaica, at midnight last night. The
two rear cars of the forward train and
the front car of the rear train were thrown
from the tracks. The rear car was tele-

topping over into the roadway. Men
and women fought frantically to get out
of the cars. Women were struck, pushed,
thrown down, and trampled upon by men
in the struggle to get out of the cars.

Both houses of the legislature sat for

several important measures on the calen-

terest aud seven of the bills reported
from the revision committee and in the
nature of legislation made necessary
to conform the statutes to the ConstI-

The article aims to solve one of the
most important financial and economic
problems of the day; namely, why it is
that instead Of getting any cash from
abroad in payment for our great ex-
ports of merchandise, we have to bor-
row immense sums from foreign bank
ers to avert panics in the stock and
money markets. (The New York Even
Post, October II, 1902, estimates these
foreign borrowings at the enormous
sum of $500,000,000)
In support of my views of this mat
ter l have cited the reports of foreign
dealings in our stocks on the New
York stock exchange for the years
1893, and 1898 to 1902, which have new
er before been given to the public.
The reports for 1893 will certainly
surprise those who remember that for
the past ten years it has been claimed
that the panic of that year was
caused by the return of stocks by for
eign investors who had become alarm
ed over our silver policy. In his ar
ticle on this subject in the Yale Re-
view, November, 1900, Mr.. N. T. Ba-
CUu says. lie heaviest LOSSES VI
English investors were made in The
panic of 1898, which was immensely
aggravated by their dumping all man
ner of securities on the New York
stock exchange for anything they
would bring"
Mr.. Bacon is considered the highest
authority on this subject and his la
ter article in the New York Times,
January Is, 1902, has been quoted ap-
provingly by leading Wall street press
agents. But the above statement
proves that he knows very little about
the matter. The reports show that in
1893 the purchases of stocks for for
eign account on the stock exchange
exceeded the sales in eleven months
out of the twelve. The net excess of
purchases for the whole year amount
ed to over 100000 shares.

A sure crop every year, and the
brightest prospect of doubling your
investment in two years or less. These
farms are located in the Box Elder
valley, northern Colorado.
There are six million dollars in
vested in sugar beet factories in this
valley. Farms are paying enormous
ly, as they have sure crop and big
one every year, ample water supply,
IA reservoirs, and more than enough.
We are selling farms in this valley at
$50 and $50 per acre, and several have
been rented during the past year at
$40 per acre cash rent, paying 20 per
cent on the investment. Four miles
down the valley from where these
farms are located farms are selling at
$3.50 to 5000 per acre. Twenty miles
further south in the valley, farms are
selling at from 5000 to $3.50 per acre,
paying on this valuation annually 20
per cent. Land that we are offering
is equally as valuable when fully de-
veloped and improved as the farms
that are selling at $3.50 per acre.
The crops this year will run about
as follows:
Alfalfa, 6 to tons per acre.
Wheat, As to 65 bushels per acre.
Sugar beets, 20 to 30 tons per acre.
Oats. so to 40 bushels per acre.
Barley, 65 to 1870 bushels per acre.
We have yet about 1000 acres of
this land to sell with perpetual water
right and are OF the opinion that any
one purchasing a farm in this valley
will double his money within one year.
We will certainly have all this land
sold soon.

ural fertilization, and the exact

doubling and sometimes guadrupling
the returns over farming in the east
ern states.
Wheat, oats, barley, potatoes, sugar
beets, alfalfa, fruit, all vie with each
other in quantity and quality. The re-
suit is, farming by irrigation is ideal,
and peace and plenty abound.
In comparing irrigation farming
with rainfall farming, the Wyoming
Experiment Station Bulletin on irri-
cation says:
'"The increase from irrigation is
sometimes fOur-fold and seldom less
than double. 1t is estimated that If
only one acre in four could be re.
claimed it would still bring the prod
uct of the arid region of the United
States up to the product of the bal

among whom discomfort is unknown,

probable that nowhere on earth are
there as many prosperous farmers as
in that section of which Fort Collins
is the center.

Senator Latimer's Thanks.

The following letter was read in
the Senate and House on Friday :
Having been advised by the
morning papers of my election on
the 9th instant to the Senate Of
the United States for the term be.
ginning March 4, 1908, by the unan-
imous vote of the Legislature in
joint session, desire to express to
the members my deep appreciation
of the distinguished honor which
they have conferred on me.
Ten years of continuous service
in the House of Representatives has
given me keen appreciation of the
ardent and difficult duties which a
seat in the United States Senate en-
tails and of my imperfect equipment
for their discharge TO the high stand
ard demanded by the country. Pro-
foundiy conscious of my RESPONSE
bility, pledge myself to the best
service of which am capable, and
to unremitting effort in behalf of
the best interests of all the people
of our State, and of our common
country, 80 long as I shall continue
to represent South Carolina in that
high office.
Very respectfully,
A. @. Latimer.
Keowee courier. [volume] (Pickens Court House, S.C.) 1849-current, 1903-02-11

particularly by the numerous murders
committed in the last few years.
What is needed is not more laws,
but the enforcement of laws that al
ready exist; but most of all is needed
change for the better in public SEN
timent respecting the sacredness of
human life; for until there is some
change, law will remain powerless to
punish the murderer, especially if he
have money and influence. At present
there is a sentiment among large
proportion of South Carolina gentle
men that man must not stand GER
tain words. Some consider blow
the only answer when one calls an
other liar. Not few think that
such an insult is justification for
shooting at sight. As long as men
entertain such sentiments we may
expect to see high. handed violation of
the law against murder. Public SEN
timent has nullified law and prepared
the way for the many murders that
have been committed among us.
What is most needed, therefore, is
the revision of public sentiment at
certain points. This need is empha.
sized in sermon recently delivered
by Rev. E. o. Watson, of Charles
ton. He'says: eve need reform
in public sentiment that shall make
the taking of human life for words o
crime absolutely without defense; a
reform that shall recognize that no
words of man to a'man justify even
personal violence. We need re-
vision of public sentiment that shall
make the carrying of weapons in it.
self a crime, whether these weapons
weigh four ounces or four pounds,
whether they measure six inches or
six feet, and whether they be con.
cealed or unconcealed. We need a
a public sentiment that impartially
Furnishes crime" On this last point
Mr.. Woods, whom we quoted
before, says: "The law should not
only be just enough to protect the
humblest citizen, but also strong
enough to punish the most prominent
individual who violates it's mandates"
We must believe that more
healthy sentiment is already forming.
May it speedily become so strong
that certain punishment will be
meted out to every man, white or
black, rich or poor, strong or weak,
who stains his hands in blood.
