The present financial trouble is some
thing unusual. According to statistics
there is more money in the country
than there ever has been in the past,
the land has produced its banner crop,
good times prevail and we see no cause
for financial crisis. The trouble
seems to be with the Eastern speculat-
er; he cannot get money to make good
his promises for the reason that the
Western producer holds a greater per
centage of the country's money than
he has ever held before, and he has at
present no occasion to send it East.
The great annual rakeoff by the East
from the West is to great extent
cut off by the raising of the big mort
gage indebtedness of few years ago
which hung gloomily over the Western
land. The Eastern life insurance
graft that for years took millions from
the West has been practically shut off,
on account Of the recent overhauling
of these institutions by the Hughes
Roosevelt muck-rake which exposed to
the public the crookedness g those
institutions. Ten years ago a man
could not travel forty rods on West
ern country road without being held up
by a long coated life insurance agent !;
now you seldom meet him - he is a
thing of the past. Those millions
that in the past have been transferred
annually from West to East to great
extent, is now held in the West, is
sure to cause some trouble, but the
country at large is all right. We
have the money, the wheat, the corn,
and everything else essential to the
makeup of a great and prosperous
people. We possess those elements
in greater degree than any nation on
earth and where is the chance for
serious financial crisis. We fail to
see it.-Keller Sentinel.

articles which have been published
concerning the alleged smuggling by
himself. at the time of his detachment

He says that everything he had was
bought in the United States. His pO-
sition was similar to that of other
naval officers returning home To this
country after an extended trip abroad.
He was charged with trying to evade
the customs duties on large quantities
of expensive wines. thousands Of high
grade cigars as well as curios Of great
value. secured abroad.
According to his statement. he had
no wines purchased outside the United
States. or cigars, or curios. He said
the remnants of the cabin supplies
We're landed under the eyes Of the GUS
toms authorities and sent to the rail-
way station without a thought that
they were dutiable. When he heard To
the contrary. he went to an Inspector.
and showed a list of the goods landed.
He paid duties on anything that in his
mind. there would be any question as
to whether il was dutiabfe or not.

THE FOREST SERVICE
PLANNING OF TRIES
More than a quarter OF a Million Of
Trees Set Out Last Spring.

Washington, July 7.-(Special Cor
respondence of The Republican,
More than 2S0.0O0 trees Were planted
last spring by the government in four
national forests.-the San Gabriel and
Santa Barbara in California, the Dis
NAL River in Nebraska. and the ella
forest in New Mexico. These extern
paintings are for the purpose Of
reforestation. They also serve as prac-
tical tests on a large scale. and the re-
suits will be valuable in planning and
CARRYING on future operations.
Western yellow pine. Scotch pine.
and jack pine. were the principal spe-
cies used in these four paintings The
young trees were grown in seed beds
until two or three years oid. and were
then transplanted TO give their roots
a chance to develop. Finally they were
planted where they are expected 10
grow into forests.
Success has thus far attended this
years planting. The loss at last re-
port was not more than Is per cent
anywhere. and in the most favored To-
calities was only ; per cent Although
the young trees are cared for after
planting they must take many chances
before they are safely established and
become a young. growing forest AMI
mails devour them for food. insects
suck their juices, or sting them, and
drought often gives them a hard bat
tie for life. The rabbit which Is US
ually looked upon as a harmless and
innocent creature. is particularly de-
structive of young trees. Its vOracious
appetite calls for three square meals
a day of tender bark and juicy twigs.
The cost of transplanting trees from
the nursery to the forest varies 50
greatly that no general average can
be given. Distance. nature of ground.
cost Of labor. and other items are sell
dom the same in different places The
planting of l4S.OO0 yellow. Scotch. and
Jack pines last April in the hills of
Nebraska cost 1895 a thousand. and So
per cent were alive "a month later The
80. 500 yellow pines planted in New
Mexico cost from So To Z thousand.
and the mortality was about the same
as in Nebraska. or the $4,000 trees
planted i'm Santa Barbara forest fewer
than 10 per cent died during the first
month.
The planting done thus far in the
national forest is a mere atom COM
pared with what remains; but il is 4
good beginning. Many regions will re
! forest themselves from seed trees. In
some localities it is believed that re-
production can be secured by sowing
seed by hand. and a start has been
made in this direction in the Black
Hills but thousands of acres must be
reforested by planting. The undertake
/ ing is so great and SO expensive that
private enterprise would never have
been equal TO it, and the government
only is able to carry ii on in way
commensurate with its importance.

AN EXPERT OPINION
OF LOWER COLORADO
Engineer c. &. Grunsky Believes the
River Has Been Put in Its Bed to
Stay.

Washington. July 14.-C. f. Grunsky
consulting engineer of the reclama-
tion service who has been investigat-
ing conditions on the Lower Colorado
river in California. has returned to
Washington. He reports that condi
tions on the Lower Colorado river are
very satisfactory. Ever since the work
OF turning the river from its tempor-
airy inland flow back into its proper
Ichannel leading TO the Gulf OF Cali
fornia. had been successfully accom-
plished, the question "how will the
new works Withstand the spring rise
of the river" has been uppermost in
the minds of those in charge of the
work. as well as in the minds Of those
whose homes and property has so long
been menaced.
The river has now in all probability
passed the highest stage of this sea-
son and the defensive works have fully
met all expectations. There have been
no signs Of weakness during the high
stage apd the river has so fully re-
stored it's original regimen that an un-
usually large flood discharge has pass
ed down the river at a height barely
submerg.ng the river banks. Great
credit is due to the Southern Pacific
Co. which. acting for the canal COM
panies. has had charge Of and has di-
rected the work Of river control. for
the thOrOughness with which the work
has been done and with which prepa-
rations were made TO meet any emer-
gency.
II. T. Corey. manager and chief en-
gineer of the California; Development
Co. who has had direct charge of all
these works. is now turning his at
tention to the construction of new ca
nails in the Imperial Valley and to the
betterment Of the main and distribut-
ing systems. He has a large force Of

The Small Beginning of Riotous and
Destructive Affair at Roanoke, Va.

Roanoke. Va. july 1.-THE town Is
quiet tonight after four hours of riot
ing last night when a mob wrecked
nine Greek restaurants. three Greek
shoeshine parlors and two Syrian shoe
shops. The riot was caused by n dis
pute about five cents between a Greek
employed in the Belmont Greek res
taurant and an American who went
there to buy a sandwich.
Five men have been arrested and
one released on bonds. None of the
Greeks were arrested. The Greek res

ployed counsel to look after their in
terests and called the attention Of the

to fully appreciate their
worth to the farmer. the land owner.
rhe business man. the tourist and
pleasure seeker. The farmer alone Will
get back the cost If their building
when the valley gets little more
thickly settled up. Even now the haul
ing of crops to town badly cuts up the
country roads and greatly lessons the
tonnage a single team can haul. to
say nothing of the other benefits. Mr..
Fowler says he would gladly pay a
reasonable acre tax on his land IL he
could have such IA boulevard built by
or near il. Ii would he worth the
money as a farm convenience 10 say
nothing of increasing the value of the
property and the value of all prop
erty through which the road ran.
The chief question is how Ia build
the road and of what material. Mr.
Fowler Is of The opinion il can be
built of better material than the So
called cement or gravel that has been
used so much in Phoenix and vicinity,
and that at still less expense. He has
taken the trouble to write a few let
ters and send for information on road
building. to authoritative sources. SO
he hopes pretty soon To be better post
ed on the road question. In the mean
time. without having actually, reduced
his ideas to figures. he thinks he has
solved the problem by watching the
operations in the construction OF the
Noble building.
He believes that the best road build
ing material available would be good
solid rock. broken up to gravel size,
its virtue being hat when spread on
the roads IL would be enduring and not
pulverize as easily as the decomposed
granite that has been used heretofore.
A big rock crusher would not cost a
great deal OF money and there is
plenty OF rock within easy distance
from where it would be used. A big
traction engine that would pun an
immense tonnage over smooth roads
would reduce the transportation prob
lem to n minimum. With n few thous-
and dollars spent for machinery OF
this kind Mr.. Fowler believes the
I equipment would be at hand for the
building OF a fine road at a minimum
expense for labor. no more perhaps
than Is already spent ON some OF the
roads. And a nicely graded boulevard
covered With n few inches OF rea
made to- order gravel would last q
generation with very slight repairs.

IDEAS CONCERNING
THE ROAD QUESTION
The Suggested North Side Boulevard
Has Set at Least One Man to Think
ing Along Practical Lines.

G. NJ. Fowler read with great inter
est an article in The Republican a
short time ago, suggesting the build
of good roads. and particularly one
long boulevard that would circle the
greater part of the farming district
on the north side of the river. The
idea impressed him and he has been
studying about it ever since. As 10
the value OF good roads everybody
