Deserving of Commentator.

The action of the ladies of the
Civic League in planting eleven
shade trees in the public school
grounds deserves applause, ut the
hands of all those who want to
see San Angelo take its place
where 1t deserves, at the head Of
its class. Were there more shade
trees planted and substantial
sidewalks built, the general APP
pearance OF the city would be
much improved. No better place
than school yards could be found.
Planted there they adorn public
buildings and grounds and serve
to make the place all the more at
tractlve for children. Growing
things teach the child u love Of
nature which of itself is worth
much to the young mind. Shady
hooks and green grounds will
cause a child to like to go where
they are, whether that be on river
banks or in school yards,
Let the good work 60 ON. These
ladies are doing good work and
future generations will revere
their memory for the pains they
have taken to provide II pleasant
place wherein to spend the brief
iutermissions of school days.

SAN ANGELO. TEX. MAR "a, 1904
Thursday Mornings Fire.

That San Angelo is destined to
become greater is believed by
almost all men and the progress
siveness of her business men is
the best reason for this belief.
That her business men have great
courage and are dauntless in it is
aplendidly demonstrated 10y their
actions on the event Of Thursday
mornings fire. The first Nation
al Bank, COX-Cunningham Co.
and j Il. Taylor sustained the
greatest losses, yet at nine o'clock
that morning Cashier G.. ii.
Powell opened the bank for BUSH
ness i'm Geo. Richardson's office,
and at eight o'clock J. b. Taylor
was filling orders from Silas
Keeton's store. Cox-Cunning-
ham Co., having no reserve or
wholesale stock to draw from,
were compelled to await the ar
rival of new goods but they
stated at 10 o'clock that they
would reopen as soon as they
could get goods and a location.
These facts are but indications of
the faith that the business men
of San Angelo have in their city.
And with such faith there is no
power, not even fire aud deluge
that could effectively put the city
out of business. 'Twere proper
to formally sympathize with the
losers but sympathy is out of
place here. They have so much
"spunk" that all feelings of SYM
pathv are lost in unqualified adj
miration for their splendid
efforts for rehabilitation.

MINERS

Denver, June 8.--The twenty-four
deported union miners from the Grip
pie Creek district exiled since the Sc
rious riots in that section, have ar
rived at Denver on special train over
the Denver & Rio Grande. In the
rear of the car stood nine guards
armed with shotguns and army rifles,
who had been deputized to conduct
them to Denver from the gold camp.
The miners were unarmed. Nearly
all were penniless.
The miners declare that the Cripple
Greek district is no longer safe for
union men. The miners assert that
when arrested they were searched by
guards Of the military and citizens
alliance and their money and val
uables taken. They also declare that
before they were placed on the train
they were lined up by armed MEM
bers ofssthe Citizens Alliance and their
federation cards taken from them,
! They were told that they were
| wanted in Cripple Creek, but that they
| must take out cards in the Citizens
Alliance to stay. If they did not con.
sent to do this they were to be de.

CONSPIRACY TO
BEAT SETTLERS
Land Grabbers Plan Trouble for
Sooner on Chippewa
Lands.
From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,

From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,
Washington.
Washington, June S.A conspiracy
Is believed here to be on foots among
certain land grabbers to make trouble
for settlers on the coded Chippewa
Indian lands in northern Minnesota,
which are to be opened to settlement
June Is. Information is that certain
men who were disappointed in not
getting, land in the KioWa and Co
manche reservation in Oklahoma two
years ago have gone to Minnesota to
contest entries made by squatters on
the Minnesota lands. The basis OF
these contests will be ''soonerism."
These men are said to be on the lands
now spotting out the squatters and
gathering information on which to
base contests. They are likely to be
disappointed. zs*s
Under the rules and regulations of
this opening there is nothing said
about "sooners,, nothing to prohibit
prospective settler from going on the
land and establishing residence or
to give a squatter anyright to the land.
It is expressly provided, however, thai
