Canuto Apodaca was escorted
down from Kelly one day this
week under charge of assault
with intent to kill. 1t seems
that Apodaca had indulged in
the pleasant pastime of beating
Eliseo Padilla and, not finding
that quite linely enough sport to
suit his taste, had shot at him
three times. He was allowed to
go home under bond of 81, 200 to
await the action of the grand
Jury.

Tom Watson. the Populist nominee
for President last time, advocate
that very idea? Is the idea not an
old one with the PoPulists? And

Leans stole ideas and policies. Has
not the papers for years been full
Of municipal and government own
ership? In the discussion of the
possible results of municipal own
ership has not government owner
hip been alluded to. The only new
part Of the idea seems to-be that
the States ought to own the short
lines Of railroads. those within the
States, and, so far he advances 10
reason for this. except to appease

Thomas Jefferson never said any
thing that we know of about govern
nient ownership Of railroads, nor did
Bryan until few days ago, but
since the latter has said it, the Dem
ocrats who believe in Bryan viii now
proceed to say it is a Jeffersonian
principle. That is, some of them
will. but from what we hear abcIit
it all of them are aroused over the
matter to the extent of doubling
seriously whether Bryan is any
longer a living one. That utter
ance is burying himself SO deep with
his own party that he win likely
never experience political resur-
rection.

ba1na, voted for it, and any fault
finding with the attitude of the adj
ministration as to corporations gen
orally would simply react upon the
Democratic party as it would invite
a contrast between the WV, in which
President Roosevelt is compelling
obedience to the laws and the utter
failure of the Democrats, WIN IN
power, to accomplish anything, eth
er under the antitrust act or the
interstate commerce act.
While the Democratic leaders may
ultimately have to submit to the die
tation of their twice-defeated leader
and advocate his strange mixture of
socialism and Imperialism in the de-
mand for government ownership,
they are not yet ready to do 50. They
are also fighting shy of the labor IS
sue. An alliance with Mr.. Gompers
in some sections of the country looks
very attractive to them, but the men
in charge of the National committee
are afraid to risk committing their
party to the labor legislative pro
gramme for the opposition to organ
lied labor is strongest in those states
where the Democratic party is most
firmly entrenched in power and
where its leaders have the least SYM
pathy for the Gomper's movement.

DEMOCRATS CONFUSED.

There is confusion in the head
Quarters of the Democratic Con-
oressional Committee in Washington.
The campaign has already opened in
many of the States and the Commit
lines on which to make the fight
tee has not even decided upon the
lines on which to make the fight.
The present outlook is that every
candidate will be left to choose his
own ground and make his campaign
in his own way, receiving little or
no help from the committee.
The trouble is that since the Tree
silver issue was eliminated from
politics the Democratic party has
stood for nothing except general ops
position to Republican policies, and
in the present campaign the leaders
have not even been able to agree as to
what they should oppose. Prob
ably more of them are in favor of
making war on protection than on
anything else, but the entire country
has prospered so wonderfully under
the bingley law that there are few
if anv localities where the old Dem
ocratic free trEde arguments can Mt
tract voters. :,

The Buried Forest.

According to an eminent biologist.
there is nothing ut all remarkable in
the discovery of buried forest Of oak
trees nca- Peterborough. In bog
lands" he said. lit is Il common thing
To find Il few feet below the surface
the forests which have been submerged
with the shifting of the earth'S strata.
From geological point of view, the
Peterborough buried forest may have
certain amount Of interest, though
that depends on whether any animals
have been found there.
There are some great reptiles in the
South Kensington Musuem, which
were found in Peterborough, and they
are millions of years older than the
newly discovered forest
"The forest-bed on the Norfolk coast
is also far older than 2O0O years. There,
below the surface. are forests of all
ages-immcnSc tracts of foSsilzed
wood
You must remember that all Eng
land was one vast oak forest at one
time. patches Of which only remain to-
day. The rest is under the earth.
Those bog lands formed by the fill
ing up of natural basins have locked
up within them the forests of cen
turtles. which are coal in the making.
And even in coal you frequently get the
distinct formation of a tree trunk.
AS for the practical value of the
ancient trees discovered at Peterhor-
