Time for Change in Person

Works, Near.
MAYOR BECKER IS RETICENT
Will Not Say Whom He Expects to
to Appoint-The Probable
Lineup.

As the time draws near when 1t is
expected that Mayor Becker is con-
templating the changes in the per-
sonnel of the city board of public
works and the city attorney, a num-
ber of names are beginning to be men
toned in the rumor as to the new
members.
The names of the new board and city
attorney, according to the rumor read
as follows: Board Of public works
Jacob Schloer. Adam Ebert, and Peter
Smith; city attorney, John A. Gavit
Mayor Becker is not expected to COM
and would not when asked about the
change this afternoon.
In fact he was not disposed to talk
of the matter at this early time. That
changes WILL however. be made with
the beginning of the year, is almost g
certainty, not owing to inefficiency o1
the present tncumbents, but rather or
account of an ante election promise o1
Mayor Becker, which was to the effect
that he would change the members
every two years.
The situation is we'll understood BY
the men who are affected in the
change and have at different times
discussed it informally.
Mayor Becker did say, however
this afternoon that there is a waiting
line of would-be office holders, whC
have in mind the change that he is ex
pected to make.

CUSTOMS WHEEL ARRESTED.

The bicycle of a customs officer was
seized by the police the other day, sup
posedIy because it had not paid its lit
tie dollar tax. When the customs man
realized the full intent of the act the
telephone buzzed and the police were
asked what right they had to interfere
with a Federal officer in the discharge
of his duty to the extent of depriving
him of his trusty mount. The matter
has been amicably settled, but the point
of the Territory interfering with the
United States by policeman depriv-
ing Federal officer of his means OF
locomotion may still be heard from.

PROSPERITY is REAL
SECRETARY WILSON THINKS
PANIC IMPOSSIBLE.
viii Be Good Crop Year-NO Such
Thing as FaiIure-"Tama Jim"
Laughs at the Talk of Flnanciers
About a Panic-Farmer Story About
Railroad Securities.

The prosperity of the United States
cannot be destroyed by Wall street
furries, in the judgment Of Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson. 1t has been
asserted by inanciers who have come
to Washington and consulted with the
president that only good crops during
The coming season would save the
country from serious business and fl
nancial depression and there will be
such crops, according to Mr.. Wilson.
mo longer can there be anything
like universal crop failure" said the
secretary. There is no reason to
anticipate anything more than the
growing of crops, how to prepare the
soil, how to seed and how to culti-
yate plants ard harvest grain.
"The fiurries that are occupying
Wall street are not affecting the farm
population at all. Many of the farm
ers do not now anything about them
and If they do, they think there is
simply a manipulation of stock with
which they are not concerned. You
can not get the farmer to touch any
thing Of that kind now, because he
does not know what the consequences
may be. A sad reflection on our rail
road stocks at this time is the fact
that notwithstanding farmers who
have made and are making money
know so little about railroad securi-
ties and have so little confidence in
them that they won't touch them, are
sending hundreds of millions of dollars
ecross the border into Canada to buy
land which they know will not run
away"
The secretary deprecated the failure
of the railroads to furnish transporta-
ton for crops, pointing out that many
bins were full of grain as a result of
the lack of transportation facilities.
In consequence, money which would
have been paid for the crops is not
in circulation.

ROOSEVELT LIKES HIS WORK
Rugged Statesman Cares Naueht for

Rugged Statesman Cares Nausht for
Strain.
It is said that when an eminent
statesman told the president the other
day that he was looking tagged out,
the president reached over to him and
In a whisper that was audible through
out the room, exclaimed: with all
that l have and all that am called
upon to do, am enjoying myself more
than any other man who has ever
been in the White House." And he
looks the part.
The extreme illness of Archie
brought more lines of care into his
face than were ever before seen there.
There were days that he secured no
exercise. The lawn tennis court had
not yet been put into condition and
he would not leave the White House
for a walk or horseback ride, but
when the opportunity offered he soon
resumed his daily routine of sports
and felt better for it.
But the president is bearing his bur
dens well. He had an unusually hard
winter of it and if he did not show
some signs of wear and tear he could
be properly classed as one of the great
wonders of the world.
Here are q few of the important
problems to occupy his attention:
Threatened railroad strike in Chica-
60, Central American war, Taft-For-
aker presidential fight in Ohio, Pana-
ma strike house cleaning Cuha south
ern. immigration, German tariff,
charges that United States Minister
Graves refused to introduce Mrs. Van
Claussen to the king of Sweden, the

Two tons of dynamite which was

RESTORE RESERVE LAND.

Affected.

OQlOfduoy MOUIdUa anu NEW mexico
Affected.
Forester Pinchot has ordered the
restoration to public settlement OF
about 100000 acres which had been
withdrawn temporarily and placed in
forest reserves. The lands are 1876, $3.50
acres which had been placed temper
arily in the reserve in Las Animas
county, California; 1920 acres ada
cent to the southern portion of the Big
Belt national forest in Park and Gala
tin counties, Montana, and %, 1900 acres
in Grant county, n, NJ, adjacent to the
Big Burros reserve. This last named.
on examination, was found to be
chaparral and open grass land, hence,
following the policy which the bureau
has adopted, it was restored to settle
ment.
The Montana lands were found to be
chiefly grazing in character. The
Colorado land was restored because it
was represented by commercial bodies
of Trinidad, Col, that the most of
the area was already filed on by set
tiers, and. as in the case of all restored
lands, when 80 days have elapsed it
will be open to entry.
