COLONIZE THE SOUTHWEST
Farming Lands There to Be Settled by
European Immigrants.


Prominent among the enterprises for
the settlement of the great West and
Southwest are the various colonization
projects being pushed forward by the
railroads and even by the foreign gov
ernments.
The Rock Island passenger depart
ment, after considerable effort. has sue
ceeded in locating Il colony Of Menonites
i'm Seward county. Kansas. The colony
has purchased eighty-four quarter sec
tions of land. one quarter section for
each family. This land. until a short
time ago was regarded as arid and ut
terly worthless. For a long time the
land proved utterly unfit for agricultural
purposes. but lately it has been found
well adapted to the growth of Durham
wheat, and this is the use to which 1t
will be put by the new colonists. Arti-
fetal irrigation in that section is not nee
essary. The colony has every chance for
prosperity.

HAS GREAT OPPORTUNITIES FOR
SERVING The PEOPLE.
Enters on His Second Term With
Entire independence, and Should
be Supported in his EndeaVOrS to
Protect the interests of lhe peO-
pie, Independent of Party.

No president ever had larger oppor-
tunities or more reason for serving the
people and moving in determined way
to protect public interests than Theodore
Roosevelt Mr.. Roosevelt has now en-.
tered upon what is practically his sec.
ond ter IN and he has announced that he
will not be Il candidate for reelection in
1908. Because OF this announcement,
Mr.. Roosevelt is in a position to act in.
dependently and he has recently shown
some disposition to protect the people
from the encroachments of special in.
terests. In these good efforts he has
had the commentator Of men OF all
political parties. He has reason to be
proud Of the vote he received and the con.
fidence which the people displayed at the
ballot boz provides all the more reason
why he should discharge his duty in a
fearless way. The HERALD has had oc-
casion to commend Mr.. Roosevelt in sew
eral particulars and now that lie has
been inaugrated to serve during the term
for which he was elected, it expresses
the sincere hope that it may have many
opportunities for giving its approval of
his efforts. Men OF all political parties
are striving for the same end-good gov
nment. The rank and file Of parties
may differ as to the methods to be en-
ploved in obtaining that end. Some of
them may for time be deceived and
kept in ignorance concerning the real
purpose OF their leaders, but sooner or
later men moving with a common pur-
common enemy and sooner or later popu.
lar government, in the best sense of the
term, will be restored. Then men who
have thriven and grown fat through
special interests will be required to re.
move thecshackles they have placed up
on the limbs OF the people.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Roosevelt will be
inspired to exert every effort to bring
about "the greatest good to the greatest
number" That his official conduct may
be controlled by a lofty patriotism and
that his administration may reflect
credit upon it's head and bring relief and
prosperity to the people is the wish Of
all good citizens. Whatever mistakes
the representatives OF government make,
all the people must share the penalty.
Whatever good results flow from the
official conduct of those representatives,
all the people share the blessings. And
so men OF all parties will join in express
ing the hope that Mr.. Roosevelts ad-
ministration may be fraught with credit
and honor to himself and with substan-
tial benefits to the people.

FAILED TO CONVICT.
HoQuiam Moral Wave in Advance Of
Public Sentiment.

The trial of the proprietors OF the
Monterey and Reception dance halls,
charged with employing women where
liquor was sold, resulted in their acqut-
tai Attorney Richardson had the cases
transferred from Judge Ogden's court to
Judge Warren's, where the defendants
were given a jury trial. City Marshal
Richardson and his officers were the
only prosecuting witnesses, and their
testimony made the trial ludcrous
farce. rendering Attorney Campbell un-
able to accomplish anything. When
questioned on any material point they
knew absolutely nothing of their own
knowledge. They never saw beer
check and would not know one ii they
did, and their only Identification OF beer
was by its foam. When the cases OF the
nineteen female inmates of the dance
houses were called and they demanded a
separate jury trial, the prosecution mov-
ed that they be turned loose, as there
was no ho,e of convictin5, and it was
deemed una se to put the city to further
expense. While there was no doubt in
the public mind as to the guilt of the de-
lendants, no Jury, no matter how con-
scientious, could have convicted accord.
ing to the law and evidence in the cases.
Even the Rev. Benedict, who was an
earnest spectator OF the farce, predicted
a spec ly verdict OF acquittal. Judging
from past events it seems useless to
make further arrests in the interests OF
morality, as conviction appears impossi-

ter said. prospect. 1t will be remem-
bered that Emerson Wilson reported
taking some men to the lower end Of
Long Island who were armed with
map and said they were looking up
quarry of rock. They visited the main
land from there and acted in myster-
ons manner, taking away with them
some Of the rock.
This trip was repeated a second time
last Wednesday, and prospector from
Aberdeen, Oliver Garrepee, who is we'll
known ON the bay and who has headed
both of the other expeditions to the head
of the bay, engaged the services OF 7. f.
Rixon, but refused to tell where he want
ed to go. They took the steamer Re-
liable and connected with Roy Mills
launch Eagle in which they went to the
mouth of the Nasel, and there Mr.. Rixon
was shown ledge which he traced for
300 feet, consisting of a Gaping Of iron
pyrites and underneath a quartz vein
which is supposed to contain gold. The
quartz crops out in one place and sam.
pies have been assayed. The result was
encouraging enough to warrant them in
locating the ledge at least and Mr.. Rixon
ran the lines for them. They brought
back with them pieces of the surface rock
which was covered with crystalized iron
pyrites.
Some of the specimens of iron pyrites
from the Gaping are very fine in show.
ing perfect crystals. This iron Gaping
always exists where ore is found, but
