The record made by the Suburban"
during 1904 has been a cause for consrat-
uation to the directors of the company
and source Of satisfaction to the public.
II has been an important contribution to
the reputation ST. Louis enjoys of hay-
ing the best street-car system of any city
in the United States. The company car
lied 81 per cent more passengers during
the period the Exposition was in progress
than for the corresponding seven months
OF 1893, but Notwithstanding this enormous
increase in traffic, accidents Of all kinds
on the system were 80 per cent less than
they were for the same time last year.
This was largely due to the efficiency Of
the headlights and air brakes in use on
the cars Cd the company. 1t Is the proud
boast OF the company that IN all the
crowded conditions existing during the
Fair there has been no one killed by the
cars in any accident that was entirely
caused by negligence OF the cornpany's
employees. For the last three years the
Suburban Company has employed air
brakes, the air for which is generated on
the cars by. Independent motors The ad-
vantases derived through this system are
even pressure and a constant and inex-
haustible supply. the effect Is, to greatly
minimize accidents. as there Is no risk
rnent. The headlights, which are electric
arc lights and therefore OF extra bril-
lance, add TO the safety Of operation. The
system Is aso the only one in St Louis
the cars of which are heated in winter by
electricity, enabling an even degree OF
temperature to be maintained

There Is q pretty little romance back of
the wedding. -Four years ago Hiroshi
Mori, "a years old, who was graduated by
the High Schooi of Toxic. came TO this
country to finish his education His
parents were not wealthy. but belonged to
one OF the noble families, and 1t was fit
ting that their son should be educated and
take his place among the leaders of men.
He entered the Leland Stanford Univer-
Hity and made brilliant record.
At the end OF the session he took the ex-
animation under the Examining Board CT
New York and won Harvard scholarship.
He then returned to Japan for his vaca-
tion.
There he met his old sweetheart. pretty
6istu Karasawa, again. He told her OF
she ways Of the American girls and IN
spired her with the ambition to come to
America to study. After much pleading,
the consent OF Mlxtu's parents was finally
gained, but Il took money to study In
American colleges. The young lover
thought of the Worlds Fair, and Of the
possibilities OF earning money. So he be-

All summer long they worked that they
might earn money to complete their edu-

like the American girls. of whom her lover
told her. The Worlds Fair was closed,
and the Japanese Village on the Pike was
destroyed by fire.

Forest Reserves All Right

Mir. c. c. Hutchinson, one of our prominent sheepmen, while in the city last week, was a pleasant caller at this office. In discussing the range situa- tion, Mr. Hutchinson said he believes the forest reserves are a good thing. and as the stockmen more thoroughly understand the ideas of the depart : ment all friction is gradually being re- moved He thinks the grazing permits will be heightened from one to possibly five years or longer, in which case the stockman would be justified in trying to develop water more than he is un- der the present system. He also be- Iieves the department will take some action relative to the protection of stockmen in the southern portion of the territory. during the winter months, from the migratory flocks, as he says there is no question but that great hardships are worked on some of the people there. By judicious ad- rninistration of the grazing permits he believes all this trouble can be averted. Williams News.

 assembled here last Monday at lC o'clock. Judge George R. Davis, Clerk $. F. Noon, Court Reporter
 William Cooper, Sheriff Turner and Bailiff Otto Heroid, present.
 The following lawyers were also present: District Attorney Frank J. Duffy, Judge Eb. Williams, Judge Marsteller, E. w. Amsden, Geo. K. French, Chas. Bustamante, Nogales; Gen.

Alexander, Phrnix, United States Attorney Nave.
 When court convened Judge Davis announced, as result of an investi- gation of the incidents connected with the receHt smallpox in the jail, that he was unwilling to take the responsibil- ity of holding the criminal term of court at this time. Because of the fact that the prisoners confined in the jail had been Tn immediate contact with the smallpox patient less than ten days ago, his honor thought that the possibility of danger was still extant- J Judge Davis stated that 1t was not the probability that he feared. but the possibility. Three local physicians were present at the investigation. \ ot twithsta Ading the fact that a major ity of the grand jurors voted to pro c~ed, Judge Davis wisely decided to postpone the criminal term until Mon day, August p, 1904, and excused the witnesses until that date and dis missed the grand jury.
 The civil calendar was then called in order to ascertain in what particular cases jury trials were desired. The calendar was then called for the pur- pose of settling cases for trial.
 The civil calendar for this term is the largest in the history of the coun- ty, owing to the many cases arising out of the International Bank failure.

State Elections.

Thirty-two states elect governors this fall. Both parties, therefore. have considerable to strive for in the gubernaterial line Along with the election of governor and other state officers will go in nearly every case, the election of legislature. Eleven of the states Florida, Illi- nois, Indiana, Missouri, Montana, North Carolina, Utah. Washin eton, West Virginia and choose their governors for terms of four years, which makes the political prize all the more important. New Jersey will elect governor for three years, being the only state with a three year gubernatorial term. Massachusetts for one year, being the only states with one-year terms. Each of eigh- teen states-Arkansas,C Colorodo, Con- necticut, Idaho, Kansas, Maine, Mi chigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, South Carolina, Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont. and Wisconsin-will elect a governor for two years. It will be seen that several of the large states are among the thirteen which will hold national and congressional cleo tions without the additional stimulus of gubernatorial conest. The states are Alabama, California, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi. Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Wash ington Post.
