CROWDS TO THE WEST
peo pie Flocked Out to the Lot Sale
at the Three New Towns on
Milwaukee Extension.
at the TIL,

When the trains from the east aud
south over the Milwaukee road
arrived in the city late Tuesday
afternoon there was an immense
crowd OF people on board for the lot
sales at Vivian, Draper and Murdo,
the three new towns on the Milwau-
kee extension. Six coaches were
packed full and many were standing
on the platform, unable to to get
seats. With the full expectation Of
picking up many passengers between
Mitchell and the end OF the line at
Murdo the train was run in two
sections, the first leaving at 4:45 and
the second at $50. Several s%leepers
and two Ginning cars were taken out
to provide additional eating and
sleeping facilities, as the large crowd
would swamp either place In a short
time.
The line OF rairioad is completed
Us far as Murdo, aud it is expected
that a regular tratlic OF passenger
and freight service Will lie establish
ed to that town in u short time. AT
present The regular service extends
only to Presho. With tile building

switches the service will be extend
ed. Murtio is looked to be the COM
Ing city out that way, as it is a
pretty well established tact that the
Milwaukee road will make that town
the division point between Mitchell
and the Black Hills country. the
distance being about equal bet ween
the two points.
Tuesday was also excursion day on
the Milwaukee road and the south
passenger brought in five coach loads
or passengers and while a goodly
number got off here to look at the
surrounding country, many went to
points farther north in the state.
People from the east who are COM
ing out here at this season are seeing
the country at its best. With its
magnificent crop outlook and the
great amount OF building that is
going on i'm the various towns. the
carries home the best posi-.
BILE impression OF the country.

THE LADY" COTTONWOOD
She is Busy at This Season in Dis
tributing Her Feathery Sub.
a n Everywhere.

Fifteen or twenty years ago. when
IL was problelnatical whether trees
would grow in this country, the ,ot-
tonwOod was a tree of lavorite plant
Ing. for the reason that they were
pretty sure OF a quick growth and.
afforded a shade long before ire es OF
other varieties could get a good
start. Ten years have established
the absolute guaranty o; trees glow-
lng and now the cottonwood is a
source of annoyance This is true
only of the ''lady' cottonwood, for
III should be understood that there
are males and females in this family
OF trees. and the LADY is Just now
at her busy season distributing her
1eathery substance wherever it
lights. Ii it were not so warm n
would think some days that a sum-
mer snowstorm was in progress. The
cotton falls thickest on the lawns,
clings to peoples clothes and fills the
screen windows and doors.
1t may sound a trifle REASONABLE to
advocate the killing off Of trees, but
as a source OF comfort for the public
generally the lady cottonwood ought
to 60. There are thousands of other
shade trees in the city which have
grown TO great heights and have
broadened out to great extremities
and by reason Of this excellent growth
we doubt very much if the cot
tonwood would be missed to any ex-
tent, except in cases where a resi-
dent relied wholly upon this tree
FOR shade.
This is al opportunity for the
Civic Improvement League to make
a start in q work that Will result, il
carried out, in Kidding the city of an
unpleasant condition. The city
council might be called on by the
league to pass an ordinance that
will be OF material assistance.
In numerous western cities war;
fare has commenced on the removal
Of the lady cottonwood and park
commissioners and the city councils
are taking the initiative in this d.

THE QUAY COUNTY
REPUBLICAN PLATFORM

rc-aiiirm our faith in, and our al
lcgiancc to the principles Of the
Republican party, which, by its
half-ccntury Of existence has at all
times been the safe guard Of the
interestsof all the people and which
has preserved the destiny Of this
republic: we indorsc the record Of
our great rough-ridcr, President
Theodore Roosevelt, who stands
on every occasion for an unquali-
fled square deal for all men no
matter what their station in life;
the President whose wisdom and
patriotism commend themselves to
every thinking citizen; his policies
at home and abroad in behalf of
Americans and American interests
have secured for him the admi-
ration and respect Of the nation,
and it is with pride that we con-
tinue our confidence in his admin
istration. We recognize him as a
President who has done more to
curb the trusts and other great
corporations than all the hosts of
democracy; in him we recognize
a President who will safely guard
the interests Of our people and this
great nation as long as he is in Of
flee, and last but not least, we rec
ognize him as the friend of the
Territory of New Mexico.
Therefore we endorse the cnab-
ling act, bearing his signature,
which offers to the Territory of
New Mexico admission to the
Union, and believe in the theory
OF n state for New Mexico and
Arizona and no longer a depcn-
dancv.
We reaffirm our faith in the Re-
publican doctrine of a protective
tariff which has particularly favor
ed New Mexico in her wool and
other industries, and we are unal-
tcrably opposed to any tariff lcgis-
lation that will result in a re-
duction in the price of our cat
sheep, wool or and other product
OF the Territory OF New Mexico.
In the language Of our President,
we stand uncquivocally for a pro-
tcctivc tariff and we feel that the
phenomenal industrial prosperity
which we are o enjoying is not
to be lightly icopardizcd, for it
would be to the last degree foolish
to secure here and there a small
benefit at the cost Of business de-
preston"
We endorse the splendid record
Of our worthy delegate to congress
Hon. William II. Andrews, who
has put forth every effort to adj
vance the interests OF his constitu-
ency and to secure the best re-
suits possible for the territory of
New Mexico who has laborcd dill
igently and earnestly at all times
for the people and the territory,
and we feel that justice demands,
and that the welfare of the Repub-
lican party Of this territory de-
mands that he be rewarded by Ic-
ing returned to complete the good
work he has so faithfully begun.
