nection with the vibration in this
city, Prof. Willis Moore of the
weather bureau said today that the
eruption of Vesuvius was recorded
during its entire period on the mag
netic instruments Of the research
station at Mount Weather, a few
miles from this city in Virginia.
Prof. Moore stated, however that
this was not an earthquake shock
record, but rather that Vesuvius
acted like powerful wireless trans
mitter and Mount Weather as a
receiver, Vesuvuis with its erup-
tions there disturbing the electrical
potentials, which disturbances sent
out electromagnetic waves that
encircled the earth. The vibrations
at Mount Weather were clear and
distinct. Pref, Moore was not pre-
pared to say whether the eruption
of Vesuvius has anything to do
with the present earthquake.
The seismograph at the weather
bureau here at I2:45 O'Clock was
still recording | violent vibrations
The second shock felt in San
Francisco at S'r5 this morning was
clearly indciated by the weather
bureaus instruments, thus show
ing that the entire continent is still
affected.
The earthquake was not seriously
felt at the other points along the
coast, so far as can be ascertained,

Turn Your Hand.

The contract for the purchase of the north side canals has been approved by the secretary of the interior. Since he had dictated the terms of the agree ment signed by his representatives it was certain that he would approve it. That he has done so cIinches the mat ter.
 The next step will be the formal turning over of the property which will be accomplished as soon as the decree of foreclosure in f2vor of the New York Trust company against the wa ter company is carried out. That will be within the next fifty days.
 But the Arizona canal Is already in the actual if not tie formal possession of the government. or we may say. of the water users under it. thanks to q provision in the agreement framed to meet their needs.
 It is a cause of regret. though that concerned they have elected not 10 pro- fit by the provision.
 To them it is as if no agreement had been reached: as if there were no canal; as # there were no river as f the whole valley were still a desert.
 This is a distressing situation but the distress is ameiorated somewhat by the circumstance that their sorrow full condition is one of their own choos- ing and that even now if they desire, they can alter it and put themselves on an equal footing with their moro energetic neighbors
 It is wholly q matter Of will. the turning over Of a hand. The hand is now upside down. If turned right sid.. up, even at this late day it will be fill ed with the golden riches which the crops will yield.
 Elsewhere in this number of The. Republican is printed an account of the manner in which the necessary work for water is being done. The energy with which this work is being carried forward should be an incentive to the hesitating and the reluctant.

I'll VI HEAL n ER0 l--Odp pLdll Evans, the mayor of Morristown, was in the city yesterday. The captain passed through town on his way out to see how his bailiwick had come on in his absence. On his return yesterday he had time to talk of his journey. It was the first time he had ever been east of Chicago. He said that he could not have imagined that there could be so much difference between two parts of the country. Everything was different, the region and the men. The climate he regards as particularly cal culated to provoke disease. He was told that the winter was a mild one in New York, Boston and Washington. He said he had some curiosity regard ing the nature of 9 hard, winter but his curiosity would not induce him to find out by personal observation Everybody was sick. He noticed that the wooden Indians in front of the ci- gar stores in Boston and New York were suffering with tuberculosis. At least ninety out of every hundred were so afflicted.

CHE ADVANCE IN WESTERN LANDS

There is warning for home
seekers in yhat staff correspon-
dent Of the Republic, writing from
Oklahoma City, has said about the
rush OF population to the new state
and the rapid rise in land values
there. The time is limited in which
cheap lands eau be bought in either
of the two territories that are to
form the state of Oklahoma.
In Oklahoma the public land is
nearly exhausted. The new state
will start with about I,z5o. 600
acres Of school lands, but the pow
erful farmers unions oppose their
sale at present prices. The disposal
of the lands can not be decided up
on until the state is formed and
the legislature takes action, but
even it they are speedily sold, they
will bring good prices.
The So5,ooo acres Of the Kiowa
pasture will be sold at a minimum
of S. an acre before December {,
and it is hoped that congress may
do something this winter to open
to the segregated coal aud asphalt
lands in the Indian Territory.
These will be the last great land
openings Of the new state.
Much allotted Indians lands re-
mains to be sold by individual bar
ter, but the longer its sale is post
poned by restrictions upon the IN
dian's freedom of contract the high
er the price is likely to be when
sales are at last made.
The Republic news columns tell
Of the great industrial progress
that is seen on every hand in the
lew state. Glass works, pottery
works. smelters and industrial plans
Of many other kinds are springing
up and fiourshing in both terri
tories. They are bringing in a
population that will make home
markets for the products Of farm
and garden
All of which is notice to the
'o1.e-st..ers That II he wants 10
