Building q Road.
From Kansas City Journal.
Mineral Wells. Tex, Nov. 12.-The
visit of George Gould to the West is
said to have some bearing upon the
early building of the extension of
the Weatherford. Mineral Wells and
Northwestern railroad northwest to
Trinidad, Colo, a distance of about
900 miles. The final survey for the
first $50 miles of the proposed ex-
tension out of Mineral Wells has
been completed and was approved
by MT. Gould recently. The grading
contract will soon be let for this
first division.
While there has been very little
aid about this new undertaking of
the Goulus, 1t is one of the most i'm
portant pieces of railroad building
now under consideration in the South
west. 1t will give the Gould system
a direct and low-grade line between
Colorado and New Mexico points and
Galveston. In addition to this it will
penetrate the very heart of tine Pan
handle of Texas and pass through a
country that is now remotely situat-
ed from railroad transportation IA
cilities. The Panhandle region is set
Ting up rapidly. and it is claimed
that it will afford an enormous tom
nag of cotton, wheat and other pro-
ducts for the new road from the very
beginning.
M building af h ii extension will
place the Gould system in position
to handle much of it's far Western
and Northwestern business through
Galveston. This applies particularly
to export grain. The Gould system
in Texas is at present without any
connecting line to the North or the
Northwest. The T.. & p. reaches
Ell Paso, but it occupies a somewhat
isolated position as to through raj
fic. The new line will be of great ben.
eft to the Denver and Rio Grande
as it will be a big feeder as well as
an outlet for that road.

SERMON IN SLANG
BY VI. DASH.

Once upon a time there was a
good old slob who as too dumb to
take easy money and who hadn't
sense enough to get his, who was
elected to the Legislature, where
he led the honest and simple life,
away from booze and graft, and
other corrupting influences, and
who, when the session was over,
came back to his native town and
found a brass band at the depot
playing the tune. of ''See, the Con-
quering Hero Comes" AS he de-
seconded from the parlor car he was
met by Il delegation of his towns
men, one of whom delivered a fer
vid address of welcome, while the
Others swung their hats and cheer
ed. The wife of the member had
come to tie depot for him with a
horse and wagon, but the people
woulLnot have itso. They brought
up the finest carriage in the town
and attached themselves to it and
drew the man to his home. Then
they cheered and cheercd again,
and when the evening had come
they lighted bonfires and sent up
hot-air balloons in his honor. By
and by, when they called for him
to make a speech, the great man
came forth and said:
'sFellow- citizens could not be
human and be insensible to this
honor. 1 have been wondering,
however, why you piled it on so
thick. l am an humble man. AS

Five minutes later the crowd had
melted away to d red headed boy.
No more cheering, no more sky
rockets.
Club, what in thunder has got
into folks all of a suddcm?' asked
the great man as he looked about
in puzzled way.

POLITICAL RIGHTS
Of Labor Unions Discussed by the Lin
coin Evening News.
ONLY WAY TO RIGHT WRONGS
And Tighten the Burdens of the Work
ingmen and Women of United
States of America.

The contention of those who are
lied labor into politics, that such
action is un-Amcrican and against
public policy, is not founded OH
good logic or on proper concep
ton of the duties and prcrogativeS
of citizenship.
The time has passed when fair
minded people think of denying TO
labor the right to organize for The
purpose of lettering the conditions
OF those who toll, and one of the
most effective ways of bringing
about an Improvement in those
conditions is through proper legis
lation. The leaders of the various
unions realize this fact and their
Legislative committees are ever busy
attempting to secure the enactment
of favorable measures by city coun-
ellis, state legislatures and the
national congress. The record
shows that they have been in meas
ure successful and many of the
most just and equitable laws now
on the statute books owe their
presence there TO the agitation OF
the laboring men and the massing
of their votes behind candidates
known TO favor their ideas.
Members OF organized labor in
disputably have Il right to hold
opinions as to what legislation
would be prcjudicial or beneficial
to their interests. This being the
case, they have the further right
to vote for and advocate the
election OF men who favor the
measures which they desire enacted
and TO vote and work against the
men who are known TO be opposed
to those measures. Talk of black
listing and conspiracy is idle twad-
die. Men who believe in an eight
hour law have as much right to
vote against and urge their fellows
to vote against Il candidate who
does not favor such measure as has
Il man who does not believe in the
principle of protection to urge the
defeat of q protcctionist candidate
for Congress.
1t Is not question of whether
the men who are being antagonizcd
by organized labor We're right or
wrong in their positions. No one
will deny to them the right to their
opinions, nor is it necessary to
question their honesty or their firm
desire to do what they earnestly
believe to be right. But if what
they conceive TO DE right and Just
Is directly opposite to what one or
more of their constituents believe
to be the proper thing, those CON
stltuentS would be lacking in their
duty as citizens if they failed to
vote against them.
Speaker Cannon, in an address
delivered Il few days ago, found
fault with the union because, as he
asserted, they We're attempting to
punish mcn for voting as their
conscience dictated. Ii this were
the case it would of course, be alb
Solutcly wrong, but it is said to be
an erroneous conception of the sit
uation. Those who are antagoniZ-
ing certain congressional candidates
state that they are doing SO because
the conscience of those candidates
dictate a course Of action which
the union men believe to be con-
trary to their interests. That they
have perfect legal and ethical
right to do so is beyond question.

Rainfall and Tree Growth.

A report has recently been published
which shows how closely the growth
Of trees is dependent upon rainfall. Not
only was this seen In the case of one
and two-year-old trees, but In an inves-
tigation extending over period Of
twelve years, during which time the
annual rings Of growth were carefully
examined. With an annual precipita-
ton of from thirty to thirty-five inches
. width Of ring was produced varying
from IL to .15 inch. II, on the other
hand, there was either an unusually
large or small rainfall in any given
year this was followed by CORE
spending tree growth in the following
year.-Harper's Weekly.

DEMAND FOR CEMENT.
Used for Buildings, Sidewalks, Bridges,
Railway Construction and


The steady increase in the demand
for cement is one of the prominent fea-
lures of the industrial world. Although
the number of cement works Is greater
every year and although the produc-
ton has been multiplied many times
over recently, the demand continues
to outrun the supply, and there is rea-
son to believe that this state of affairs
will continue for number Of years.
One OF the sources of the demand for
cement Is found in the irrigation works
of the United States government, and
an immense amount Of liquid stone"
Is required for the building of the great
dams now building or soon to be built
across western streams.
The railroads Of the country arc also
increasing their demand Tor cement.
which is found to be the best possible
material not only for bridge abut-
ments, but also in many cases for
bridges, viaducts and culverts. The
rapid Improvement of the road beds OF
American railways, now in progress,
has called for vast quantity of ce.
ment, and the railway companies have
not been able to get the material as
fast as It is needed.
Cement has also been found to be
the best possible material for side
walks. and 1t is rapidly supplanting
brick, stone and wood for this purpose.
1t is also used almost exclusively for
the footings or foundations Of heavy
walls.
Closely connected with the increased
demand for cement is the very rapid
rise in the price of lumber. The sup
ply of timber suitable for building pur-
poses in the United States is rapidly
diminishing, while the use of concrete
for small as we'll as large buildings is
increasing very rapidly.
One Of the largest cement works in
the country Is already located in the
Arkansas valley, and the supply OF this
material is practically illimitable. The
development of the cement industry in
Colorado to many times its present
proportions 10 assured.-Pueblo Chief

Worry Disease.

Everyone knows innumerable rea
sons why 1t is foolish to worry, the
chief one being perhaps that 1t is so
utterly useless, but science has added
a new reason which is worth consider
ing. 1t not only states that worry will
kill, but explains why it will kill.
Worry is q disease Of the brain, a dis
ease which destroys certain cells Of the
brain, often beyond repair. Like an
enemy IN the night, worry creeps upon
the brain and begins its sledge-hammer
process Of destruction. The vitality Of
the delicate organism is slowly de-
stroyed. Nature may repair the destruc-
ton II worry comes at intervals, but
worry is habit and its power grows
each time that 1t is allowed admit
tance.-The Housekeeper.

to have been devoid Of every instinct OF

ravening beast, who slaughtered for
the pure lust of blood. He was per-

In fact he was the law. He carried the
commission of the Emperor. He came
as one in authority. He and his Cos

tured. They spared neither age nor
sex, guilty and innocent were alike the
prey Of their devilish sport.
