BorH Congress and the President
now depreciate the widespread ten.
dency to make them, out at odds
with each other. Congress per-
haps depreciates this more than the
President. Both Congress and the
President are. fishing for the sup
port of the labor unions with rods,
hets and handles. 1t is needed III
the coming campaign, therefore it
is reasonably certain that an eih-
ployers' liability bill will be one of
the few measures almost certain to
pass out of the mass that are now
Dragging snajllike way through
the halls Of q reluctant Congress.
The President, will have no need to
send in a red hot message on the
subject as was predicted In some
quarters he would do. Congress is
anxious to have the credit of pass
ing such measure, and it will be
passed.

Since taking up my work In the
Montezuma Valley ! have travelled by
stage, on horseback and with livery
team and buggy. But the most salts
factory trip have yet made between
Cortez and Dolores was the first Of last
week WITH Mr.. Bpzman, in his new
automobile; MIR. Bosman helped his
partner and brother off with three rigs
of Longmont farmers, who wished to
see some of the firms many Snaps, in
real estate, then we started up to meet
the noon trains. Instead of following
the Stage Route we kept due north be-
tween the Marymee and Armstrong
ranches up to the Hartman draw,
where we made the mistake OF turning
to the left instead of to the tight, and
found our5slves off the road. But we
soon found that under Mr.. Bozman' g
hand the machine went easily through
rogers and irrigating bitches. After
opening two pair of bars and three gates
we came oHt on the road past upper
Mildred. To our delight we found i
good piece of grading had recently
been done putting this road III excel
lent conditioH. This is thrifty neigh.
borhood, the ranches are here thickly
located. and very productive. This
young apple Orchard belonging to MIR.
Bryant on the left side of the road looks
very thrifty, while OH the other side
the larger trees in the mixed orchard
belonging to, the !glehs and Mr. Wal
lace looks very. neat, SURROUNDED by q
new hog tight fence, it is On this
orchards splendid record for bearing
fruit, that the surrounding country is
all being planted to young orchards.
The telephone system, which we hope
will soon, spread all over the. valley,
at present it extends, FROM befe to
Dolores. A little farther this way Mr..
,Rawsen on THE right and, Mcmillan op
,the left have trimmed UP the cedars
and pinions ready for the stump pulleri,
BY. the way Mr.. Mcmillan home
steaded his not over Blk month ago, be
was indeed fortunate to obtain this
choice piece Of red 4sqil. We now leave
the timber belt and come out into an
open sage brush country and as we al
the same time pass above the. ditch line
and leave the settlement behind and
soon rise to .ah elevation from which
our view is BOUNDED only by the dis.

GAS TO BE PIPED
TO BAL TLlNORE, ND.
Monumental City is to Be Sup
piled With Fuel from
This Section.


That the pipe line for natural gas
from the West Virginia oil fields
eastward is being backed financially
By the Standard oil Company was the
positive statement made yesterday by
local railroad engineer who is ia
miliar with the work being done and
the problematic success OF this huge
venture, says the Baltimore Sun.
The company has already laid lis
main into Cumberland and is coming
farther East. The next important
point in Maryland Is Hagerstown,
Several towns in West Virginia are all
ready being supplied by the company
and the gas is now available in Cum
berland.
This is declared vast undertaking
and involves an outlay of many mil
lions OF dollars. Those behind the
move have failed to disclose heir
Identity so far, but 1t has made no
secret of the fact that 1t intends
coming to Baltimore with the product
and supplying this city with natural
gas for coking and heating purposes,
provided the franchises are granted
II by the city and state authorities.
No one could afford such an under
taking, It was pointed ont unless
there were unlimited resources benin,
1t, and unless they controlled the
fields from which the natural gas is
obtainable, The Standard OIL Com
pany meets both Of these requisites.
1t controls the oil fields in West
Virginia from which the gas Is e.
cured and no one doubts its ability
to carry through successfully any
deal in which those In charge desire
TO invest the vast wealth the COM
pany Is accommodating.
The gas intended for this territory
Is secured in a field about ten miles
northeast OF Clarksburg. Throughout
the whole Of this section the Standard
OH octopus has its tentacles sp fead.
The territory 1t does not own direct
ly 1t holds by option, for which 1t
pays the owners OF the land 81 per
month an acre, whether the fields are
developed or not. This gives the cor
poration an immense leverage and
practically shuts out all competition.
They can go into this virgin territory
which Is contiguous to that now being
developed, and can, 1t is said, prac-
tically furnish supply Of naturai
gas even as far east as Baltimore for
SO years or more.
The company now has a 3O-tou
pumping engine erected on the tract
from which the gas through the new
pipe line is to come This engine has
sufficient power to force the gas al
most any distance. 1t Will likely be
supplemented by others at points
along the line.
The line move being built is only
