GROWTH OF s1ockMeN
The Membership Has Increased Won
dorfully in the First Year
of Its Existence.

Before the meeting of the stockmen
opened Wednesday evening the Off
cials were kept busy in receiving new
members, and at the close of the SEES
sion the membership was announced
as being 167. A year ago the associ-
alton was organized in this city and
the membership numbered but q.
Whether it would increase to any
great extent or not at this meeting
was q problem the officials could not
we'll solve, but the increase of l39
members was something that they
did not dream of.
1t Is evident that the stock inter-
ests have assumed a more definite
and digni6ed position among the
men who have been engaged in the
stock business, and 1t has been the
means Of bringing a great many men
to Mitchell, where they expected to
learn something from contact with
other stock growers and listening to
the papers that have been presented.
All the stockmen are enthusiastic
over their association and they feel
that with such a strongly organized
tody that more farmers a will be
brought into the fold for raising good
stock instead of hampering them
selves with that OF the poorer class,
realizing full well that it is no more
expensive to raise a good animal than
one of the lesser class. President
Erion and Secretary Wilson have
worked unitedly and successfully for
the upbuilding OF the association and
that 1t has attained such a great
magnitude cannot help but be salts
flying to them.

The men were standing near the
door leading to the coal bunkers when
a cover was blown from the manhole
on the boiler, under high pressure of
steam, allowing the vapor to fill the
room. A flood of hot water from the
boiler followed, and when the explo-

to run out of reach of the boiling out
pour.

ENGINEER WALLACE GIVES STHMIAN CANAL ESTIMATES

Washington. ID. c.. Dec. l9.-John F.
Wallace. chief engineer of the Panama
canal in a report to the house commit
tee on interstate and foreign commerce,
gives a forecast of the engineering
tasks TO be accomplished and the esti-
mated cost of construction under the
various plans.
The most tangible estimates of cost
are based on that of the former com
mission of $2OO.0O0.O00 for 90foot
level canal. Figuring with this as a
basis. the 60-foot level canal would
cost 1925. .000, 900. could be open for
traffic in 10 years and fully completed
in 12 years; the 30-foot level would
cost $3.50. 900, 900. open for traffic in II
years and fully completed in Is years !;
the sea-leyel canal would cost $780,
900. 900. could be open for traffic in Is
years and completed in 20 years.
Point. I'm Favor Of Sea Level
As to the operation of a sea-level
canal. Mr.. Wallace says:
"A sea-level canal would be less ex-
pensiye TO maintain, less expensive to
operate. save time in passage through

Upon the economical and efficient
handling of the material from Culebra
cut depends the cost and the time it
will take TO complete the canal.
Men Now ON Rolls.
During October 3.1S5 men were on
the pay rolls of the commission. OF
these 2.l65 were laborers receiving Is
cents silver an hour; 245 1abOrers re-
ceiving 17A cents an hour; IT'S were

States, whose compensation is paid in
gold, and who fill positions as engin-
eers. clerks, and foremen- More Ia
borers are to be employed in the imme-
diate future. Mr.. Wallace is doubtful

COMPLETES EMANCIPATION
Revision Of Laws Governing Serfs Will
Be Undertaken With Cars
Approval.

ST. Petersburg. Dec. 19.-Far-reach
ing reforms in the peasant land laws
have been recommended by nj. Witte
president of the council of ministers
and approved by the czar. M. Whites
proposals free the peasants forever
from the soil, and place them upon an
equality with all other classes of the
population. In other words, NJ. Witte
aims to complete the emancipation act
of 1861 by ending the treatment of the
peasants as class apart.
The press halls the memorandum
with the greatest satisfaction, the Russ
remarking:
Like a golden thread through it all
runs consideration for the peasant as
citizen of the empire and no longer as
a pariah.''
Eleven Thousand Men Consulted.
NJ. Witte's recommendations are con-
tanned in the report of the special COM
mission appointed by the cZar in 1902
to investigate the question of the get
terment of the condition of rural en-
terprise and general revision of the
peasant laws. NJ Witte was chairman
of that commission.
The commission collected an enor-
nous mass of evidence, including the
opinions of IL 900 of the best qualified
peasants, landlords. merchants, and
which filled several
thousand volumes.
Shelves Won Plehve's Policy.
The press halls the memorandum,
not only as a signal victory in the di-
rectiOn of real national progress, but
as marking definite shelving of the
plan developed by the late Minister of
The Interior Won Plehve for extending
The powers of local officials over the
peasants, and increasing rather than
decreasing the tutelage exercised over
them. Won Plehve's purpose was To
rush through a law before the commits
sion could complete it's labors.
