that Edward Green. a San Marcos
banker, and a number of other San
Marcos business men, were now en-
gagged IN the project of draining the
underground lake which many years
ago transformed the famous FL Roble
mine into a worthless hole, or. as its
owner put it "a fine well full of
water"
The mine is located in the Guiana
juato district, Mexico. and was orig
inally discovered by Juan Cisneros,
a Spaniard. who, in less than eight
months, took out over $4,000 In gold
ore. He began running drifts and
tunnels, with a view to expediting
the work of getting out the rich ore,
when suddenly he encountered a
stream of water, which, ia an In
credibly short time, completely filled
the mine.
Speaking further of the property,
Mr.. Lewis said:
Efforts were made to rid the mine
mine of the water, but they proved
unsuccessful and the property was
abandoned. It lay idle for many
years as it was found that no pumps
were powerful enough to lower the
level of the water.
The plan of tunneling into the side

BOSTON, Feb. 2S-The upward
movement in coppers continued today
and the market broadened. We look
for higher prices tomorrow and Mon
day and then think traders reaction
is due. We would buy only on weak
spots. Range is very scarce, closing
at 81 last night and opening at
81 ~ this morning. The directors
meet tomorrow and will declare l
payable April LIST. Altogether
would say that the pessimistic feel
ing is becoming less and people who
have been rabid bears are becoming
less sure of their position.

The market opened strong with con

up of conditions or measures, but,
like some other able and conservative
journals, when it does publish false
conclusions, the result is all the more
harmful. The following from recent
issue Of the Digest has gone the
rounds Of some Of the papers and is
calculated to convey the idea Of
failure upon the part Of the organized
farmers, which is wholly the reverse
of the facts. It says:
because cotton leads all crops in
our export trade and brings back to
this country more money than any
other one commodity, interest in the
government reports is not confined to
the cotton belt According to the
first estimates for the year, as issued
last week by the department Of agrl-
culture, the condition of the crop on
May Is was 92 per cent better than
that revealed on the same date
SCd1 dSO3 anu C4c AttuOCA VI dCAC6
under cultivation had increased by
$1,000. While the increase in acreage
is very slight-about one-tenth of one
per cent-it at least shows, as num-
Der of papers point out, that the
recent campaign for a Is per cent
reduction in acreage in order to in
crease the price of cotton did not
make many converts among the
farmers. -
Taking the government estimate
as correct, which all deny who are
familiar with conditions in the South,
and the natural increase in cultivated
lands is not at all taken into account.
In the entire South there was, accord
ing to the estimate, $1,000 acres
increase in cotton acreage. There is
no accurate data at hand, but it is
a conservative estimate that Texas
alone increased her acreage in cult
waited lands this year not less than ten
times this amount
Oklahoma was not far behind,
and there was some increase in
all the states. Had this increase
in acreage been proportional between
cotton and other crops, as it has bee1
until the past three years, the increase
in acreage would have been between
ten and twenty per cent increase in
stead of one-tenth of l per cent. So,
instead Of there being a reduction in
cotton acreage Of somewhere between
ten and twenty per cent, and the
campaign for twenty-five per cent
reduction in acreage" was not fail
ure. The spinners know this and the
speculator know it, but as long as
the business world generally is kept
IN ignorance of it, that long will it
be easier to separate the staple from
the farmers at less than cost of pro-
duction. Hence it is all the more
unfortunate that great magazines will
take such a superficial view Of con-
ditions and then make up their judy

Say, Mr.. Farmer!

Never before in the history Of our
country has there been time when
scientific farming received more at
tention than it is receiving at the
present time. It behooves every man
selecting farming as an occupation to
avail himself of every opportunity to
keep abreast Of the time. 1t is also
necessary for his wife to know the
Inns and outs" of her departm ent-the
home-in order that both may work
Systematically. 1t is every mans
duty to post himself in all the differ
ent features of farm life and to do so
he must have the right kind of litera-
ture. His wife must also have some
thing for her department, and to
these ends the Texas Farmer, a week
ly rarm journal, stands without a peer
This journal should go into every far
mer's home every week. For the pur-
pose Of putting it there we are going
to make an unheard of offer, an offer
that will not hold good after October /
because the price and what we offer is
too ridiculously low for us to continue
it and make good.
We will send the Texas Farmer and
the National Home Journal, both, one
year for So cents; the publishers price
being $3.50. AS an inducement for you
to hurry in your subscription we will
give to each of the first 1000 sub
scribers one share in well we are
going to bore for oil in an oil district
on on 1000 acre lease. If we get oil,
both the lease and the well will belong
absolutely to these 1000 subscribers
and will mean at least one or two
thousand dollars to each of them.
If the oil is found to exist in paying
quantities a company will then be or
ganized by us and each subscriber is
to pay in 81 more. One of which is
to go to us for our part in carrying
the proposition through to a success
full issue, and the other ten is to go
into the treasury of the new COM
pany for developing purposes; in other
words, to bore more wells on the lease
and conduct the business of the COM
pany in general. The we'll does not
cost lie subscribers one cent. We are
deposit1ng with the First State Bank
of Dallas, to the credit of a trustee, 35
cents out of the amount received from
every subscriber for the purpose of
boring the we'll If we get oil, and
we are going to bore in an oil district,
each subscribers share will be worth
one or two thousand dollars and he
will not then mind paying in the
other $11 which will develop it and
make it worth much more to him.
REMEMBER, WE ARE AFTER
THESE 1000 SUBSCRIBERS AND
WANT THEM WITHIN THE NEXT
SIXTY DAYS and will send these
papers at this price until October l in
effort to get them by that time If
possible. Don't lose any time study
ing over the matter, as the we'll does
not cost you one cent unless we get
oil, and If We do strike it just $11 is
all it will cost you afterward Only
one share is allowed to one person,
which makes it square DEAF for all
alike. Hurry in your subscription to-
day and both the papers will be sent

INDIGNANT VOTERS
ROAST COMMITTEE

Special to The Herald.
SANTA ANA, July 14.-Roused by
the arbitrary action of the Republican
central committee in practically dis
franchising the Republican voters by
refusing to call a primary election to
elect delegates to the congressional con-
vention to be held at Santa Barbara
next month, an indignation meeting
was held last night in the office of
Senator John A. Anderson to protest
against the action of the central COM
nittee and to denounce the members
of the senatorial committee who voted
for Estudillo at Riverside last Satur-
day and gave him the nomination for
the senate.
Representatives were present last
night from all over the county, and
after strong speeches from half dozen
prominent political workers it was de-
cided to call a mass meeting next Sat-
urday afternoon in the opera house to
insist on the county central committee
resembling it's action and calling the
primary election.
Copies of the call for the mass meet
ing were circulated and largely signed
last night, and today the list of sig
natures has swelled to hundreds, with
more to be added just as soon as the
committees having the matter in charge
can see the voters.
Frank G.. Tyrrell of Los Angeles has
been engaged to address the meeting,

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN PEDRO, July 1.-THE fact that
during the last week two vessels have
been held up on account of smallpox
has started an agitation here for the
establishment of a quarantine station.
The Alumna, which arrived here yes
terday with a case of this disease
aboard, is still at anchor in the outer
harbor and the outlook is the schooner
will be compelled to make the trip to
San Diego and back before the cargo
can be unloaded.
The Alumna sailed from Coos Bay
July 4. Shortly after the schooner left
port the negro cook developed a well
defined case of smallpox. The physician
in attendance here says 1t is an espe-
cially severe attack, although he holds
out hopes Of the patients recovery.
There being no quarantine station
here it is necessary in cases like this
to go to the extra outlay in time and
money of sailing to San Diego and
back before the quarantine can be
lifted.
With the growing Importance of San
Pedro as a harbor it is believed this
would be avoided by the establishment
of station here.

SAN BERNARDINO, July 14.-Thls
city is considering the proposition of
securing additional water supply, 50
rapidly have the city and the cost CT
pumping water grown.
The water commission now is looking
into a plan to secure from the Fontana
Development company SIS acres of what
is known as the Ferguson ranch, north
west of the city, at a cost Of $4,000.
BY the development of water on this
property, which is one of the best avail
able water bearing properties in this
section, a supply at a nominal cost
could be secured for a city of several
times the present size of San Bernar-
dino.
By the use of tunnel large amount
of water would flow TO the city reser-
voir by gravity, thus avoiding all the
expense of pumping.
The plan has the Endorsement of
most of the city officials and 1t is ex-
pected an agreement will be worked out
by which the purchase can be made.
