territory between the Gala River and

territorial gains in that dir ction, fear
ing a slave empire that should includR
Mexico and perhaps even the SoutherR
continent. Few except those who want-
ed TO run a railroad through this terri
tory had any idea of its value. No one
seemed to appreciate the consequences
of step by which. in emitting to buy
strip of land few miles wide, we threw
away one Of the richest deltas in the
world, and gave to Mexico the control
of the mouth and ocean entrance Of a
great river, two thousand miles of which
were wholly within United States ter.
ritory. The omission of the fathers ia
now being visited upon their children.
Just above Yuma, the United States

the Colorado upon the fertile desert
lands bordering the river down TO the

WINS FIGHT OF II YEARS.
Stubborn Man Finally Gains His
Point and Closes Toll Road
Conflict of Long Standing.

Lancaster, Pa.-For II years Column
bus o. Rate, residing neal the city
limits, has fought unaided the Big
Spring G. Beaver Valley Turnpike
company, whose road passed his prop
erty, and which. he maintained, was a
public nuisance. His victory has final
ly been won, the court having just or
dered the turnpike condemned.
AS far back as 1883 Rate first began
condemnation proceedings against the
company. The latter resisted. aud a
suit resulted, which Rate won; but the
decision was reversed by the supreme
court. Rate then refused to pay toll,
and threatened to tear down the gate
house, thereby inviting another suit to
test his allegation that the turnpike
was a nuisance and an unnecessary
public infection.
Again he was prosecuted, and won
the suit in the lower court, only to be
again reversed. Still unrelenting in
his determination to close the toll
gate, Rate, with the assistance of his
neighbors, began an agitation for the
extension of South Duke street. 1t
was finally opened to a point beyond
the company's dollhouse, enabling trav-
elers TO get into and out of the city with
out paying toll.
This was a practical victory for Rate,
for the company's business was in time
almost completely destroyed. The road
was soon in a deplorable condition
owing to lack of repairs, and then Rate
again took steps to have it condemned
and the toll gate removed.
These have at last been successful
and the turnpike is now a free public
highway. Nearly the entire length Of
the turnpike was within the city limits
