BAD P MONEY.
Gang Operating All Over the Country
With Counterfeit Bills.

Denver, Col, March 28-A counter
feiting scheme. gigantic in its proper
tons, which has as its field the whole
Of the United States, has just been I'M
earthed by the Federal authorities. A
number of Government secret service
agents are now in Denver following
clews which are said to have led them
to believe that the headquarters of the
gang are located in this city.
The operations Of the counterfeiters
are said to extend all the way from
New York to San Francisco, and so far
IL is believed that something like $50.
900 has been secured in the larger cities
Of the country.
The counterfeit is one Of the best du-
plicates of the Buffalo series Of $40 and
go bills which has ever come to the at
tention Of the Federal authorities. A
description Of the ~counterfeits as fur
nished by the United States Secret Ser
vice Department follows : Series 1901,
No. 29513972; face plate, 159; back
plate. 81; check letter. D; signed
Lyons, register; Roberts. treasurer ;
portraits of Lewis and Clark.
The counterfeits are q shade darker
than the genuine. Secret Service
Agent E. H. Wilson is here working on
the case. Speaking of the counter.
feiters' method Of operation he said /:
Their work is so smooth that it is al.
most impossible to detect them at il.
Several agents are sent out and pur-
chases for small amounts are made in
the stores Of the town they are in. A
80 or $50 bill is presented in payment
and they receive their cash in change.
The counterfeit is not discovered until
it goes to the bank, and W then in a
great many cases it has been allowed to
go through. 30 perfect is the imitation.
"There is not only u gang, but sew
eral of them scattered around over the
country. How many there are in the
deal we cannot tell yet"

The Governor did an excellent piece
Of work when he put his veto on the
scheme TO refund the Lincoln Comfy
bonds and sell them ct almost any old
price to the Salt Lake and San Pedro
Railroad.
The first bill was worked through
by q smooth Salt Lake lawyer. and 1t
allowed the County Commissioners to
sell the refunded bonds at any price
they pleased. This bill enabled them
to secure the bonds at ten cents on the
dollar, il they got the Board their way.
and then sell them to the railroad.
The Appeal considers that there was q
rake-off for somebody that would take
six figures to express.
He vetoed the bill and the same peo-
pie came in with another scheme al
most as bad.
1t was all being done quietly. and as
soon as the Lincoln County people got
next. they sent in kilograms to the
Governor asking him to veto the meas
ure. He did so and suggested that the
matter be submitted to the people at
the next election.
This is the only proper way. But for
the Governors keen scent for this
smooth piece Of jobbery the people of
Lincoln would have been done up to a
rich brown without knowing what was

The Lincoln County Record did good
work in exposing the job.

Potato Blight is Here Again.

The early planted potatoes in this
vicinity have been struck with the
blight, which has appeared in the
same manner as it did last year and
the year before. The blight is un-
doubtedly here to stay and farmers
may as well make up their minds that
they have that as we'll as the bugs to
battle with. Scientists have various
theories concerning it and recon-
mend certain measures for it's proven
ton. The matter has been taken up
in the farmers Institutes and treated
at length, but few if any of our local
agriculturists have endeavored to ex-
pertinent along the lines proposed.
1t is up to the farmers to study the
matter and endeavor to discover some
etfectual method of treating the dis
ease. Some say spraying with GER
tain mixtures will prevent it, and some
say that if the vines are cut down as
soon as blight appears the potatoes
will not rot. It will take but little
time and will cost nothing to try the
latter.

The notorious seedless apple is. be-

It is small in size, poor in color, in

be worm proof, which is the big point
claimed in it's favor. Before long

Section 2S of the amended game

Insurance Methods Arraisned.

The bacteria of enforced reform
which has been at work notably on
the Eq uitable Life now seems to be
spreading throughout every ramifca-
ton Of the insurance field. For a
number Of years the big insurance
companies have been enjoying
period of halcyon prosperity during
which various abuses have grown up,
and now of a sudden the full light is
being turned on their operations.
F. V. Cutting, state insurance CON-
missioner of Massachusetts, in his
annual report issues a scathing re-
buke to the big companies which have
resorted to such extravaganza methods
in seeing which could be the "big-
gest,' and in this connection he calls
the Equitable the ''Dr. Jekyl and Mr..
Hyde" company. He urges steps by
the state government to enforce re-
forms all along the line. incidentally
ne cautions the public against the
mutual companies which are under
taking Insurance on a basis SO low
that they can never carry out their
policies.

denouncing 1.-THE gambling instinct of
the age" and the 'Judases at work
betraying their trusts for financial
gain" 1t finds the idea of graft
affecting alike all classes of society,
until officials and even courts are
''subservient to the Great Moloch,

Teeth Becoming Extinct.

Sir Oliver Lodge the great English
scientist in opening the Dental Hos
pital at Birmingham recently, said
that the general neglect of teeth was
remarkable. An eminent surgeon
told him that the bad teeth among
civilized races were due to the de-
velopment of the brain. zPossibly the
nervous condition produced by high
civilization increased the secretion of
acid, or it might be that the gentle
man whoever he was, who discovered
fire and the method of cooking laid
up store of indigestion for his de-
scendants. ...
The teeth promised to become ex-
tlnnct parts of the human organism,
as he expected our toes would be if
we persisted in wearing boots. If we
had lived on vegetables and nuts, with
an occasional raw bird thrown in as
a delicacy, possibly we might have
preserved our grinders. What we
wanted was more brains and more
science. At present we had lust
enough Of the latter to make mess
of things.

That can only be possible when more
charging stations are spread about
the country. Young Cooper Hewitt
of New York has helped to solve that
problem with his mercury transformer
and makes it possible to convert the
alternating currents used in small
towns so as to make them available
for charging the batteries.
With proper moter and wagon
equipment we can with our cells oper-
ate an ordinary wagon for ifty-eight
per cent Of the cost of maintaining
horse.''
Mr.. Edison said that one of the
hardest things he had to contend with
was the consequence of the lack of
knowledge of those who had used the
batteries or rather misused them in
practice, but, he added, that was
'part of the game, :" and he had over
come the trouble to large degree.
Under the best conditions he said it
took five hours to charge the battery,
though if economy was no object the
charging could be done in less time.
The inventor has worked with his
battery with the particular object of
applying it to auto trucks for COM
mercial purposes, and he says he can
drive two ton truck now at the rate
of thrifty three miles an hour if neces-
sary.

ApprOpria ton Was ssMeasley.'-

John Abercrombie, special engineer
for the State drainage commission,
says of the work accomplished: "The
appropriation of $4,000 made by the
State 4ast~winter~was measley-@small.
That came about through the fear of
a certain element that it was a specu-
lating scheme. The people generally
will be disabused of that thought be-
fore another session of the legisla-
ture. [ have been at work for the
commission now for little more than
two months. That time I have spent
laying the foundation for the future
work of the commission. My work
so far has been gathering data from
the sources open to the commission.
AS an illustration, the Northern
Pacific railroad company has caused
a survey to be made for new line of
road from Bemidji north to the inter-
national boundary. That survey
crosses the great divide just where a
State system of bitches would be of
inestimable value. That table land,
the highest in North America, con-
tains a great amount of marsh and
waste land. The plats and profles
OF that projected line of road we're
thrown open to me by the Northern
Pacific company and are now at the
command of the commission. The
same can be said of the Great North
ern lines to the east and the lines of
that road and the 500 on the west.
Permission was also given to use the
United States government SURVEYS
and levels of the Mississippi river
and the great reservoir system. All
these levels and profles with a great
amount of accompanying data are
now in the hands of the commissions
engineers. This work covers the en-
tire Northern part of the State and is
OF great value. It has been gained at
a small expense. I consider the work
done by me in the past two months in
gathering this data is worth the en-
tire appropriation of SIS, OOO.''
