FIGHTING A TRUST WITH TERRORISM.
Cooperative Campaign That
n a


which is doing the work. has about
261, 100000 pounds of tobacco in It's
control. This represents sixty per
cent. of the 1906 crop and eighty-five
per cent. Of the 1907 crop. The far
mers who subscribed to the stock
of the society to enable 1t to carry
the tobacco have been paid for only
one-half of the tobacco they have put
in, and unless the society succeeds
there is bound to be a terrible slump.
Prof. J. d. Clark, one Of the lead
ing men in the society, who has Just
returned from the meeting of the
leading tobacco men OF the country at
Louisville, says:
First, it is proposed to declare
the tobacco now controlled by the
society off the market, then TO organ
ize cooperative stock company for
the manufacture of the tobacco on
hand and its distribution direct TO the
retail merchants. 1t is proposed to
capitalize this company at SO, ,000,-
900 and erect big manufactures in
the various districts.
Half Of the capital stock, of S.
600, 200, is to be taken by the grow
ers who are members of the society
and paid for in tobacco TO their credit
in the pool. The remaining $4,000
900 is TO be preferred stock and will
be sold TO banks, business men, and
investors who in many sections are
already interested in the movement
and who have demonstrated their
willingness to give the society fnan-
cial backing. With the stock thus

"A trust agent stated to us only
few days ago that the trust had
enough tobacco to keep IL running
for two years, and that the independ-
ent companies had about a years sup
ply. With this supply exhausted and
the Equity Society in control Of the
market, the trust would have 10 close
up shop, and the producers, being
their own manufacturers, would
make the twenty cents on every
pound of tobacco sold which now goes
TO enrich the trust magnates. This
is in brief the plan which is being
considered by the Equity Society, and
which appears practical"
Trust Made TO Pay More.
The black hurley people have been
far more successful In organizing
than have the planters Of the white
variety. In the dark belt for the
last four or FIVE years the trust has
been compelled 20 give advanced
prices for the weed. Many attempts
were made before a successful plan
was found TO finance the tobacco as
ISOLATION. When the company went
10 the Eastern fnanciers for money
they met the opposition Of the To-
bacco Trust, and their plans always
miscarried. In the last two years,
however, the county banks have ta-
ken up the paper, and the society has
been able 20 pay for the tobacco sub
scribed, giving the farmer the mar
ket price, one-half in cash and the
other half In stock in the society,
with the further agreement that he
is TO share in the profits realized.

OUR NATURAL BRIDGES.
Worlds Greatest Ones So Far a.
Known Are In Utah.

IL is not generally known that the
three greatest natural bridges in the
world-at least, SO far as present
knowledge goes-are located i'm an al.
most inaccessible portion of South
eastern Utah.
The country is uninhabited and un-
inhabitable for the greater part, the
only settlement of any account being
the small town called Bluff, on the San
Juan River. and the nearest railroad
station being Dolores, in Colorado, 105
miles eastward.
The. country OF the natural bridges
can be reached via Bluff, going by
wagons TO the latter place, then by
horses with pack train
Last year member Of the National
Geographic Society equipped an ex.
pedition with surveyors and artists
and sent 1t out to make a careful
study OF the bridges. According to
the expeditions report, as published
In The National Geographic Magazine,
no one should think OF going into this
region without having thoroughly
studied all the conditions. The few
guides that have been there have q
very limited knowledge OF the country.
and the main and side canons so cut
up the country that a party may
easily become lost.
Of the three great arches the Au-
gusta Bridge is the largest, the meas
urements being: Height, 256 feet;
span. 500 feet; width In narrowest
part, 80 feet, and thickness, 83 feet.
Next comes the Caroline Bridge,
with height. 1872 feet; span, $50 feet;
width, 60 feet, an dthickness, co feet.
The smallest Is the slender, graceful
Edwin Bridge-height, Ill feet; span,
2O5 feet; width. 80 feet, and thick
ness, 10 feet
in honor OF the wife OF Horace j.
Long, who in 1903 visited the bridges
in company with James Scorup. Mr..
Scorup, It appears. had visited these
bridges previous to this time, and In
showing Long the way to them stipu.
lated that the second one should be
named the Caroline. after his (Sco-
rup's) mother.
SO far as Scorup knew, the bridges
were first discovered by Emery
Knowles in 1896 and he himself Wis
tied them in company with two COW.
boys, Tom Hall and Jim Jones, In the
fall OF that year.
The next party TO visit this section,
so far as known, was that promoted
by the Salt Lake City Commercial club
during the winter and spring Of 1905.
! he Edwin bridge was named at this
time after Edwin +. Holes, who organ.
Ized the party and who also equipped
the latest expedition.
These bridges, composed, as they
are, Of light sandstone, might seem to
be wearing away very rapidly. Such,
however, is not the case; for in the
caves beneath the Caroline abutments
we're found ancient relics. including
pottery and well preserved fibre san

Lexington, Ky.-Wil: the Ken
lucky tobacco planters be able to
command their own price for the pro-
duct of their lands or will their fight
with the Tobacco Trust result in a
great feud in which many lives are
to be sacrificed? This question is
agitating Kentucky farmers at pres
ent
The producers of Blue Grass seed
have formed a pool and sold their en-
tire crop this season at a greatly ad-
vanced price, but this will be sold
back to the other farmers, and they
must pay the farmers who harvested
the seed the additional profits. The
growers of wheat have attempted a
pool with some success, and the
breeders of thoroughbred horses
have a tacit understanding so that
prices are enhanced.
In Western Kentucky the planter
who will not join the Tobacco Asso-
citation fears to close his eyes lest
some of his property be destroyed by
might riders" In Central Ken
lucky there are some planters who
say the men who are building up the
tobacco pools have objects of graft
before them, and they will not go in.
The trust buyers are having hard
time They dare not reveal them
selves In the black tobacco district,
for the tobacco planters in that end
of the State fear no law. The Fire
Marshal and the Governor have each
taken a hand in trying to suppress
lawlessness, but it is increasing with
alarming rapidity. The Grand Juries
will not act, nor will the Sheriffs of
the counties investigate the lawless
deeds of the night raiders, either
through fear or sympathy.
Work of the might Riders"
The disorder specially centres in
Trigg, Caldwell, Todd, and Hopkins
Counties, which are infested with the
so-called might Riders" The work
was first confined TO threats and in
timdation, but when 1t was seen
that these methods did not have the
desired effect violent methods were
pursued 1t is now a daily occur
renee for farmers TO be taken from
their homes at night and severely
lashed by masked men or to awake
and find their barns destroyed by
fire or dynamite. A new scheme was
discovered by laborers on the farm
of DR.. Work in Trigg County, who
were seriously injured by discharge
OF dynamite placed in wheat shocks
during the night. The dynamite
exploded when the wheat was passed
through the machinery.
That the influence Of the associa-
ton is spreading and has reached the
white Burley district was shown in
the last week, when the farmers OF
Mason County were unable TO get
hands to thrash their wheat because
they were not members OF the associ-
alton. and thousands of bushels will
spoil as a result.

Meanwhile the efforts to organize
the tobacco people have advanced
rapidly, and IL is now estimated that

Austin, Tex. Jan. 1I.-Fourteen members of the body composing the Texas legislature signed a resolution today demanding an investigation of Senator Bailey and Attorney General Davidson in connection with the re admission Of the Waters Pierce Oil company of Texas. The resolution will be debated next Monday, when it is expected both Bailey and Davidson will be present. The house set as a special order for tomorrow morning. the consideration of a like resolution
 Early today the house refused 10 consider the matter in any form. but later a special order was obtained. Bailey's supporters tonight prepared a resolution which will be offered to- morrow as a substitute for the one now before the body. Tine substitute seeks to offset the charges made against Bailey in the first resolution, stating that he has admitted ali con- nection with the Waters Pierce, the resolution suggests that the speaker appoint a committee of seven meni- bers who shall pass upon the Bailey and Waters Pierce oil case. If they decide that there is a foundation fer the charges they shall so report to the legislature which then can decide as to the charge to be preferred.
 Both factions are active tonight in preparing for tomOrrOw's contest.
