The Dirt Mover" Is the name Of
an interesting yellow journal pub
lished at Columbus. Ohio. in the in
ter.-st Of contractors. In the issue
of August lst il publishes an article
under the head Of What the Santa
Fe Cut of Means" IL evidently
means a whole lot to some people
whose distinguishing characteristic
Is monumental ignorance The
writer was probably born and raised
in Ohio and has never had the nerve
To break away from ms infantile
surroundings. He is no doubt one
of those misguided individuals who
believe that everything west of St
Louis is desert waste inhabitated
only by Indians. coyotes and buffalo.
He says. When the new Belen
cut off Is completed by the Santa Re
at the end Of the present year a new
main line will be had. The Santa Re
proposes 10 abandon its present line
from Florence, Kan. to Albuquer-
que. b. way of La Junta. to save the
climb over the Ration range. This
road viii be used principally for
freight trains. All through passen-
ger trains wiIl be moved south from
Newton through Wichita TO Texico
on the Pecos Valley line. The Santa
Re Is spending millions of dollars to
save one-half mile over the noun
tains between La Junta and Albu-
qUergue Now what do you think
OF that IL sounds like the vapor-
inzs Of a simon pure La Junta
knocker in all Of his pristine gioy.

will come TO the conclusion that BE-
fore another new year Is born there
will be a general exodus from La
Junta TO some new Canaan where
they have something more in har-
rsony with progressive communities
than freight trains. At the present
there are twenty passenger trains in
and out of La Junta every twenty
four hours Only six of these. three

The principal stockholder of the
La Junta Electric Light Company
has been a visitor in this city for sew
eral days. having important business
before the city council next Monday
night. at which time the company
will apply for twenty year fran
chise and contract 10 furnish La
Junta with electric juice. The .. :.
says La Junta has outgrown the
present plant. and that il will be
necessary TO make al least $40. 600
worth Of improvements in order to
supply the demand. The company
Is not disposed to invest this amount
of money unless given some assur-
ance, or cinch. on furnishing the
city and the inhabitants thereof
with electric light and power for
specified term of years. The COM
pany has an ordinance all prepared
and ready to present to the city
council next Monday night and will
make a strenuous endeavor to have
il placed on its first reading. II is
claimed that this will not be binding
upon the city council. and after the
initial reading the aldermen can
take all the time they want to inves-
tigate. All the company wants Is to
get a good start and the first read

DR.. A. l. Stubs. our city health
officer. received word = few days
ago from the secretary Of the state
board Of health TO the effect that m
..inspertor" Sill arrive IN - Junea
about the 2Dth Of this month for the
purpose Of investigating the cause
Of the typhoid contagiou in this
vicinity. Typhoid fever Is almost
an epidemic up and down the Ar
kansas Valley this season. although
il Is Of very mild form with few if
any fatalities. The state board Of
health is making a strenuous en-
deayor to locate the source of in
fection. the governor having recent

fund" for this purpose. Local ply
sicians still contend that our drink
ing water Is the source Of infection.
being permeated with typhoid
bacilli. When you cite numerous
instances Of people escaping typhoid
contagion who have never used any
thing else but pure. unadulterated
river water, the doctors meet il
with the argument that a grain of
wheat will not grow if it IS planted
on brick sidewalk. Il must have
fertile soil. Same way with the
typhoid fever germ. IL must have
fertile soil also. So If you want the
typhoid germ to develop you must
have something the matter with YOU
in the first place. See. Just as
clear as mud to Us Arkansas river
mud.

for the Investment Of capital in
lands. factories and various enter
pris.rs. The good fruit borne By the
fair Of last year and year before Is
apparent IN many ways Capitalists
and their agents were here To -~e
what Colorado could produce. and
some heavy investments were made
on the strength Of what they SAW
This year there are far more tour
ists and investors in the state than
last year. and il Is safe To say. ASIDE
from the statements they have al
ready made To that effect. that many
hundreds. representing millions of
Of capital. will decide where they
will place their cash after they have
seen what Is on exhibition at the

every locality having anything to

READY FOR THAW TRIAL.
Body Attachment May be Issued for
Actress Who Fails to Testify.

NEW YORK, Oct 5.-I5oth the
prosecution and the defence in The
case against Harry X. Thaw, who kill
cd Stanford White on June %, are
working overtime in preparing it for
presentation to the court.
The prosecution is practically ready
for argument, but Assistant District
Attorney Caravan is particularly an
Xious before the case goes to trial to
have the testimony of Miss Paula
Desmond, an actress.
Two subpOenas have been served
on her to Appear before the grand
jury, but it Is said she has ignored
each of them. MIR. Caravan has decid-
cd to give her a few days, grace, and
then, If she still persists in refusing
to appear, body attachment will be
issued against her.
Such a procedure amounts. practi-
cally to arrest, anu Miss Desmond
would be forced to give her testimony
before she could purge herself of con-
tempt.
The actress is said to know great
deal about the affairs OF White and
the Thaws, and it is thought she will
no able to throw much light on var
fOus chapters, now blank, before the
tragedy. She was m intimate friend
III White, and is said to have been Il
protege of his after Miss Nesbit be-
came Mrs. Thaw.
May Mackenzie. the actress, with
whom Mrs. Thaw lives at the Lor-
rainc, accompanied Mrs. Thaw to the
Tombs yesterday. Commissioner Fran.
els j. Lantry of the Department of
Corrections issued special permit to
her. 1t is good for ten days, and she
will probably make friendly calls sew
erai times during that period.
Mrs. Thaw denied yesterday that
she was going 10 give up her apart
ments at the Lorraine and move to
the new Studio Building when conf
pleted. She said she had never heard,
until she saw the name published, of
the latter place.
