Railroad Rumble.

The Santa Fe round house and gem
eral shops, though somewhat disor-
gani2ed by the recent fire, are, never
theless, a scene of activity which II Is
a treat to take In. There is a system,
concerted action and intelligent effort
toward an end in the various depart
ments. Men use their brain as well
as their Drawn. 1t is stated by those
who know that the shop force. some
three hundred in number, turns out
as much work as shops with twice
the number of workmen.
The shops are equipped by means
of the latest and best machinery to
build engines, and do most difficult
iron and wood work as well as OK
peditiously doing all mannerof over
hauling and repair work.
A six thousand carpenter and cop
per shop is the first improvement on
tapis at the Santa Fe shops. The
materials are on the way; plans arc

slightly scene Of the recent fire will

THE EXAMPLE OF DIoCLETIAN.

Young men In Iowa, Missouri,
Kansas and other states have been
reared In afiiuence md educated In
colleges from the proceeds of en-
HANGED land values, Instead Of COM
ing here aud duplicating the expe-
rlences OF their parents, who were
the pioneers generation ago, they
hike on to cities and spend their
wealth where vice Is most alluring,
and where the minimum OF success
Is attained,
Publlclsts and economists tell us
that nations decline is read in the
statistics that show an abandonment
OF the field for the city. Unless the
simple life Of agricultural pursuit
stops the mad rush to congested cen
ters, there Is nothing TO hope from
our civilization that buried nations
did not possess.
Docletlan surrendered his scepter
Of the Roman empire and became
modest farmer, When the lettering
old empire invited him to again take
hold of the reins Of government he
declined, pointing TO the carrots and

THEY ARE WISE IN BUYING NOW

IProspectors and homeseekers,
when they get drenching in the
Panhandle and find bicycles laying
of duty because of muddy roads, ac-
knowledge some surprise. Some
land buyers and settlers come from
Northeast Missouri and other sec
tlons, where the corn is stunted and
the grass is parched and dead. They
open their eyes in amazement as 1t
dawns on them that Panhandle sea-
aons are rs safe or safer than in
states where land sells for $50 to
SIS per acre. They wake up to the
business policy of selling this $50
land and of buying in the Panhan-
die at $40 or SIS per acre, where the
soil is as fertile and the seasons just
as good,
There would not he any $40 or
SIS land left If the Northern and
Eastern farmers were posted. They
have been dropping in here singly
and in small groups for years, and
then going hack without purchasing
land, Now they come and buy, and,
With regrets painful to express, tell
what they we're offered one, two and
four years ago
Because buffalo grass doesn't grow
as high as rag weeds. and because
they carried In their minds notions
about the seasons, that the Amarillo
weather bureau station has settled
beyond GaNl Cfor people who go to
the proper source for information)
they shrugged their shoulders and
went home, leaving land selling for
SIS per acre, that they are now buy
ing for SIS per acre
OF course they are coming to their
senses. and when few more years
slip by, they will have $40 and 500
land, and will be telling their chill
dren what narrow escape they
made from buying themselves rich
in the Panhandle lands.

ROOSEVELT AND THE TARIFF.

II Is generally conceded that Roose-
welt is the most influential II not the
biggest man In the republican party
II that party ever had leader he oc-
cupies that position at present. In
his candidacy lies the hope of the par
ny for success In 1908, His course has
allenated many party bosses and cor
poration barons, but the rank and fle
are AT his back, and are only appre-
henslve lest he should retire after
his term and leave the field clear for
a democratic onslaught, led by Bryan.

BILE around on the side OF the people,
Il is interesting TO note how little re-
publican doctrine he stands for 1o

PROPERTY OWNERS SHOULD
PAVE.

Street paving is something that
some Of our property owners have
been too busy TO realize the import
ance Of IT always adds more than
the cost of the paving to the value
of abutting business property. The
finances of the city sometimes don't
permit badly needed improvements.
But there is nothing to prevent pub
lie spirited property owners from
paving at their own expense. When
property has reached value Of from
5000 to $500 per front foot the own
ers are generally wealthy men upon
whom fortune has especially smiled.
They simply happened to own whore

"a GENTLE PROTEST"

Under the heading a gentle pro-
test" BRO Ladd, of the Miami Chief,
registers gentle kick because his
pretty and progressive town was not
included in The Panhandle group

special edition We assure Bro Lndd
there was neither slight nor slur in

on the part of our cartoonist, Al
some future time, as opportunity Of
fers we hope 10 produce another car
toon in which Miami will be "the
whole thing
The Chief is better understood
by telling his story in his own words
as follows:
ON It's Issue last Saturday the
Daily Panhandle Of Amarillo, gave
large three column picture, In the
distance was pictured Dallas with a
steamboat, siguifying Trinity nayiga
tlon; and then Fort Worth with her
large packeries, In the foreground
was r large robust man labeled AM
arillo and Progress, and In his
brawny arms, was claspod railway
lines and shops, an elevator and fran
chises and such, Then along the pro-
cession with their banners flying
came the smaller towns, Washburn,
Claude, Panhandle, Dalhart, Clar-
endon, Hereford and Canyon City
with their fine fruit lands, alfalfa,
wheat, oats, etc 1t is q good picture
all right. but the remarkable thing
about it is that Miami was left out
entirely. The only way we can ac-
count for this is that the Amarillo
man thought the picture was good
enough even II the best part was
left out.
Now the people Of this section
have tender affection for Amarillo
and recognize her MS the queen Of
the plains; they glory in her pride
and progress,
But If the Daily Panhandle pro-
poses TO be cosmopolitan as applied
TO the Panhandle and proposes to
represent the whole then Miami feels
she has been ignored"

All for Great Southwest.

Last weeks homeseskers' excur-
Ison was probably the largest that
has yet come into this part OF the
southwest. Wednesday. the Santa
Fe ran their train in three crowded
sections. Thursday, they were
obliged to use ave sections, all
crowded. Friday, to carry the over
flow the regular train went out
with all the extra coaches the en-
CINE could pull.
While many Of these homeseekers

ty of them are looking at the Pam
handle. Whether they settle here or
in the Valley, their coming helps
the Panhandle. as 1t helps the whole
southwest.
The hotels have ben swamped By
demands for Accommodations. and
have been unable to care for many
visitors save by wholesale methods.
The homesekers are good natured
lot, however, and appreciate the diff
Hculties their great numbers have
thrust upon the hotel people.
Even real estate men who have
helped work up the excursions are Rt
loss to care for their visitors--aRd
keep them out of the other fellows
hands. They press into service every
possible vehiyle, from automobiles
to farm wagons. But one way or
another the visitors are getting, ao-
quainted with the great southwest.

Millions Spent TO
Make Clean Beer
Cleanest Manufacturing Process Il
That of An American Brewery.

We regard beer as food and the
, business of brewing beer one OF our
most important industries When we
tell our readers that without exception
there Is no other brewery in the world
so absolutely clean in Its process OF
manufacture as Pabst, we speak from
exact knowledge of conditions. The
monster Pabst Brewery at Milwaukee
represents an outlay OF millions of
dollars and many OF those millions
have been expended to make the Pabst
exclusive process absolutely clean.
Pabst Beer stands alone today. the only
food product that from the beginning
to the end Of its manufacture Is abso-
lutely beyond reach OF even the con-
terminating germs of the air.
Doctors boil their instruments in
water to sterilizc them Pabst hollis
his brew IN closed kettles and thus
sterilizes It. From there 1t passes
through sterilized pipes to sterilizcd
Theoretically sealed tanks where IL
is fermcnted Then through more,
stcriized pipes It goes to sterillzed
Theoretically sealed storage tanks
and when bottled II is pasteurlzed.
Throughout the entire process IL never
is touched by human hands and comes
in contact only with sterilizcd air.
This process Of manufacture Is tho
exclusive Pabst method. 1t is ono rea-
son for the always the same, always
the best" reputation OF Pabst Beer.
Tho clcapest beer and the richest
beer, Pabst Beer has no equal as a
only from Pabst cight-day malt
choicest hops and pure water. Pabst
eight-day malt, the perfect malt, COM
tains all the food qualities Of the finest
barley in predigested form IL is this
high food value and the Pabst exclu-
sive process of brewing and thoroughly
aging the beer. that gives Pabst beer It's
rich, mellow flavor, its refreshing Zest.
