Clayton, n. NJ, August. TO-
Thieves robbed a mail pouch that
was thrown on the Colorado and
Southern station platform here,
but it is not believed they secured
much money. The pouch was
carried to the stock yards where it
was opened and rihed OF its con-

land office and the First National
Bank. No trace of the robbers

city beautiful"
The population has more than
doubled in the past year, reaching
now about 2,5oo, and it is not un-
reasonable to look for an increase
to 5000 5000 in the coming year.
AS to the iurthur iuture-who can
tell2 Perhaps-and not putting it
too mildly-a beautiful, thrifty
home and business city OF $4,000
or $4,000 people may occupy this
site within five or ten years, for
here is a great railroad center, a
division point on the Rock Island
System with round house and shops
Ultimately Tucumcari will be the
western terminus Of the Rock ISL
and line from Memphis, Tenn. 1t
is the junction point of the Dawson
branch, reaching into the great
coal fields Of the Dawson district.
AS a commercial center the location
is very promising, its tributary
territory extending for a radius OF
over 100 miles without competition
and when it is considered that 80
acres NOW in cultivation to where
there was one acre a year ago and
that probably $4,000 people have
come into this territory in the
same period, II can readily see
why the bright future of this place
seems so well assured.
Tucumcari has a fine stone court
house, being the county seat of the
new county Of Quay. She has fine
brick school buildings, churches
of all leading denominations, a
good line Of business houses, but
room for many more to handle the
rapidly increasing volume of bust
ness, there being excellent open
ings for a laundry, five and ten
cent store, furniture, candy and
fruit, good restaurant and especi-
ally for a good $500 to So. so a day,
well-kept hotel, which is greatly
needed.
Theo. W. Heman is President
Of the Tucumcari Commercial
Club, and S. M. Wharton of the
Tucumcari News is Secretary.
Farmers who have resided in
this section long enough to be qua
lifted, unite in testiiying as to the
fruitfulness OF the soil, a rich red
loan, similar to that of Oklahoma
and express themselves as satisfied
that as a homemaking proposition
it stands second to none. There
are yet government homestead
lands to be had by the man OF linn
tied means, who desires to provide
a healthful and productive home
for his family. There would seem
to be here an opportunity which
should be quickly grasped, for
corn, wheat, oats and practically
all standard farm crops, including
the profitable forage crops, can be
satisfactorily produced, and for
stock raising there is no better
land.

and their woody contributions are

nous quantities. One wool scour-
ing plant ships upwards OF 2, ooo,-
600 pounds yearly and more could
be handled were the proper faciii-
ties provided.
This country is not being sold
altogether into the hands OF spec
ulators. On the contrary the
books OF our department show the
most substantial growth in actual
settlers and furthermore the bulk
of this land is being sold into the
hands of farmers from Iowa, Hi
nois, Indiana and even further
east. SOMETIMES a man buys a
tract for his o and doesn't ex-
pect to use it for several years but
he owns it and it is going to be
used. Our books show over fifty
cars a month this year Of immi-
grant stuff from Texola this way
for families settling in the country
along about Mclean, Groom and
other little towns along the line.
We can safely figure that one car
means two families and that means
a hundred families a month of &C
tual settlers are coming to improve
the country. In addition to those
who come with cars a great many
come in light" and buy after
they get here. 1t is much
the same way along the line
through Dalhart and Stratford and
at Tucumcari and other points in
New Mexico where the homestead
land has been taken up, it is sur
prising what an amount OF immi-
grant freight is handled.
The company is working on the
line east from here improving it
now. We have three new en-
gines for use on this end OF the
line and other traffic improvements
will enable the company to handle
business better than ever.
"All this work looks toward the
final buckling up of the line
through here to Tucumcari and the
preparation for transContinental
business. The road has a wonder
tul opportunity here and it is only
a question OF time till it begins to
utilize it. From Memphis west,
the line can distance all compcti-
ton in the handling OF business
from the middle south and south
east. People who go to California
in the winter from colder climates
have an idea that they want to get
south and out Of the land OF snow
as soon as they can. Well they
can so south on one OF the lines
that take the roundabout route and
can escape the snow, But when
we get this line completed through
here they can get away from snow
within a few hours after they leave
home and while they may see a
little more snow through some OF
the high country they won't see
much and they will escape ex.

PRAISE FOR ROOSEVELT.
Prominent Jap Official Sends Message
of Thanks.

Toxic, Dec. 7.-Viscount Kaneko
has cabled President Roosevelt as
follows:
"The whole empire is rejoicing at
your strong recommendation that
America should participate in our ex-
position and l thank you on behalf of
and with the authority of the people
of Japan"
This dispatch is significant, as Wis.,
count Kaneko is a member of the
privy council. In an interview with
the representative of the Associated
Press Viscount Kaneko said:
President Roosevelt Is always the
firm friend Of Japan and he brings
out before the world what Japan is
whenever the opportunity offers. His
message of 1906 eulogized Japan In
words which have become classic
with the Japanese people. This year
again he has clearly stated the posi-.
tion Of Japan and his message In
relation thereto is commented upon
everywhere with appreciation and Joy
President Roosevelt's message is re.
garded as indicative of the true spirit
OF the American people, depicting the
character of the true American who
says what he thinks and does what he

Crane of Massachusetts took the floor
and placed M. New in nomination
simply saying that Mr.. News serv.

tee owed 1t to itself to elect him.
Mr.. Lyon of Texas seconded the
nomination. There being no other
names before the committee Mr. New
was unanimously chosen to fill out
the term, which will make it neces
sary for him to prepare for the hold
ing of the national convention and to
call it to order.
Mr.. New was then escorted to the
meeting room by a committee and
briefly thanked the members for the
honor conferred on him.

VIOLENCE |S|MM|NEN1
Situation at Goldfield, New, as
Revealed by Governor.
TELEGRAM is MADE PUBLIC
Appeal of State Executive to Presl.
dent Indicates Possibility of Great
Peril and Asserts Local Officials
Are Unable to Control Situation.

Washington, Dec. IA situation of
the utmost and immediate danger at
Goldfield, New, is revealed in the off,
cial correspondence between Governor
Sparks of that state and the president,
just made public. The governors ap-
peal for troops is construed by the
authorities here to indicate the Inn
minence of great peril and If actual
violence is to occur at all it Is ex-
pected before the arrival of the troops
from California in Goldfield. The
governors appeal to the president,
dated at Carson City, follows:
"At Goldfeld, Esmeralda county,
state of Nevada, there does now exist
domestic violence and unlawful com
binations and conspiracy which do
now so obstruct and continue to so
obstruct and hinder the execution OF
the laws of the state of Nevada and
now deprive and continue to deprive
the people of said section Of the state
of the rights, privileges, immunities
and protection named in the Consti'
tuition of the United States and of the
state of Nevada and which are Sc
cured by the laws for the protection
of such rights, privileges and immuni.
ties; and the constituted authorities
of the state of Nevada are now and
continue to be unable to protect the
people in such rights and the reason
of such inability and the particulars
thereof are the following, to wit:
"Unlawful dynamiting of property,
commission Of felonies, threats
against the lives and property of law
abiding citizens, the unlawful posses
sion of arms and ammunition and the
confscation of dynamite with threats
of the unlawful use of the same by
preconcerted action
1.-The lawfully constituted authori-
ties of this state are unable to appre-
hend and punish the perpetrators of
said crimes and to prevent the COM
mission of other threatened crimes
and unless the relief hereinafter re-
quested is granted this state and the
lives and property of large number
of its people will be irreparably af'
fected and damaged contrary to the
peace and dignity of the United
States and of the state of Nevada"
The message then appeals for
troops, as provided by the laws of the
United States and the state of Ne.

BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.

Dispatches to Dun's Trade Review
Indicate a slight Improvement in busi-

Rice hall at Washburn college, To-

and the laboratories. All the students
escaped safely.
AS a result ct an agreement reached

Disaster Likely to Turn Out the
Worst in the History of
American Mining.
CAUSE AS YET UNKNOWN
First Explosion Occurred in Mine No.
and Was Followed by Similar
Disaster in No. s on the Opposite
Side of the MonongaheIa River, the
Two Workings Being Connected.

Two workings Belng connected.
Fairmont, w. Va, Dec. THE ex-
plosion of coal dust in mines Num-
bers and of the Consolidation Coal
company Of Baltimore, located on op-
posite sides of the Monongahela river
at Monongah, six miles from here, re-
suited in what, from present reports,
is indicated to be the worst disaster
in the history of the coal mining in
dustry of America.
The most conservative reports
place the number of men entombed
by the explosion at 800 and nearly all
estimates, including those of most of
the coal company officials, place the
number at least 500. Some estimates
place the number even higher. About
1000 miners are employed in the two
workings and most of them, it is said,
had entered the mine before the ex-
plosion occurred.
Mining experts, a large corps of
physicians and others familiar with
mining matters hold out practically no
hope to waiting friends that single
person in the mine at the time of the
explosion has escaped death.
The town of Monongah has a pop
ulatlon OF about 5000 and while for
the most part the miners are of for
eign birth there are still many Amer
ican workmen. Possibly the largest
steel tipple in the state is located at
Monongah. The mines are both shaft
and slope mines, being worked by the
rope and haulage system. The coal
company is one of the largest COM
panies of the kind In the country and
Is capitalized at about $20,000,000
This accident is said to be the first
wherein a loss of life occurred by
explosion in the history of the region
comprising some sixty mines, owned
and operated by the Consolidation
Coal company. An explosion at the
Berryburg mine, forty miles south, a
tributary company to the Consolida-
tion company, was visited by an ex-
plosion less than two years ago and
nineteen men lost their lives.
No. s mine was opened only two
years ago and was considered the
most modern mine In every respect In
Central West Virginia. 1t was en-
tirely equipped with electricity and
considered absolutely safe. Electric
motors were used exclusively, while
the mine throughout was electrically
lighted and mining machines, driven
by this fluid, were used entirely.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1907-12-07

cepted that the publication of the ac-
tion of the war department was pre-
mature and that the operators only
wished to get rid of the preliminaries
before the critical time came for
opening the mines with nonunion la
borers.
The mine operators held a long ses.
sion, but said they had nothing to
give out for publication beyond de-
ploring the fact that the application
for troops had gained such wide pub
licity.
From messages received here dur
ing the last twenty-four hours it is
evident that the outside world thinks
all messages from Goldfeld are CEN
sored and that correspondents are pre-
vented from giving the facts on the
situation. Owing to the sensational
reports the officers are swamped with
requests to take care of valuable
realty in the event of rioting or fire.
There has not. been an arrest here
cor common drunkenness for a week.
