SPRING CLEANING DAY.
Soap and scrubbing Brush to Be
Used in San Antonio.

Used in San Antonio.
San Antonio, Texas, Feb. 21.-
Spring cleaning on big scale to
reach every nook and Granny of this
city has been arranged by the Wom
ems club for March 10th. All
of the citizenship is being enlisted
in the cause, and in stores. schools
and homes, from the highest to the
lowest, soap and scrubbing brush
will be welded in one grand, con-
certed and united securing bee"
that cannot fail to produce a clean
err San Antonio. Assisting the good
women will be the mayor and the
board of aldermen, the board of
health, the police department, the
fire department, the school board,
and the Business Mems club and
Chamber of Commerce. who will go
out and by precept and example
make "scrubbing day" shining
success.
The women engaged in this cam
paign have collected a fund for pub
licity, and have sent out thousands
of letters to citizens of the better
sort, preaching the doctrine of sani-
tation and cleanliness. The city is
being worked ward by ward, and
precinct by precinct, as in warm
political fight. The school children
have been enlisted in the work. and
the whole citizenship is being stir
red to civic cleanliness.
Covered boxes are being provided
in the business part of town to car
ry off thetrash. The fire department
will flush the streets and sewers;
weeds and rubbish will be carted
from vacant lots, fences will be re-
paired and painted, out-5uildings
whitewashed, pools are being drain
ed, and cisterns screened, so as to
anticipate any breeding of mosquit-
oes this summer.
As the city garbage wagons will
not be adequate to this great clean
ing up crusade, a large number of
private wagons have been secured.
A procession of rubbish-laden We
nlcles will move out to the city dump
on March 10th, where great bon
fires will consume the trash. Already
active preparations are on foot and
San Antonio expects to emerge
from "scrubbing day" as bright as
new pin.

In the last campaign for governor
Colonel Dick Wynne was very ar
dent and enthusiastic supporter of
c. K. Bell and against the present
incumbent, Governor Tom Campbell.
If the governor and Windy Dick
were not together, politically. then,
why should they stand for the same
principles now? And in the event
that Texas voters could be induced
to turn down the candidacy of man
who has won the enmity of the trusts
and their allies and elect as attorney
general one who quite recently was
openly at variance with the present
governor of the state IT would be
only reasonable to expect that there
would be rather a conrariness than
sympathy of action between the gov
ernor and the attorney genral. Just
at this time, even with the prospect
OF a monkey and parrot time in
the state house as an innocent d.
version, Texas cannot afford to ex-
pertinent and believing this a great
majority of the voters are going 10
demand that General Davidson con-
tinue his fight on the trusts.

GRAZING DECISION AFFIRMED.
Stock men Forbidden to Allow Cattle
to Drift Upon the National
Forests.

Washington, Feb. 21.-United
States Attorney Carl Rasch of Mon
tana, has notified Clifford Pinchot,
chief of the United States Forest ser
vice that the United States circuit
court of appeals at San Frisco, has
affirmed the decision of Judge Hunt
in the grazing trespass case institut-
ed by the government against Thos.
Shannon.
No copy of the decision has yet
been received by the Forest service,
but it is believed that it forbids
stockmen to allow their cattle to
drift upon the National forests, and
that the National forest need not be
fenced to prevent such drifting, al
though the state laws may make
such fencing necessary for private
lands.
In December, 1904, Shannon al
lowed his cattle to drift upon the
Little Belt National Forest in Mon
tana. To put a stop to this, suit was
brought by the United States, and on
March IS, 1907, Judge Hunt, in the
United States circuit court for that
state, rendered a decision in favor
of the government, and issued an in
junction perpetually restraining
Shannon from allowing his cattle to
drift upon the Forests. Montana has
fence law by which land owners
must fence their lands before they
can obtain redress from stockmen
whose cattle, feeding upon the open
public domain, range upon and in
jure the private lands.
Shannon's council argued that
this state law should apply against
the United States, but Judge Hunt
held that the power of congress over
the public lands, including the Nat
ional Forests, is complete; that con-
gress has lawfully delegated to the
secretary of agriculture the author
ity to make regulations to protect
the Forest; that the secretary had
properly made regulation that cat
tie must not range upon the Forests
without permit, and that conse-
quently Shannon was a tresspasser
when he allowed his cattle to drift
upon the Little Belt Forest, al
though it was unfenced.
Shannon appealed from this de-
| cision, and as Montana is in the 9th
federal judicial circuit, which en-
braces most of the Rocky Mountain
and Pacific states, his appeal was
heard by the United States circuit
court of appeals for the 9th Circuit,
sitting at San Francisco. The court
has now affirmed Judge Hunts decis-
ion, and this judgment is binding
upon all Federal courts in the cir
cult A similar case is pending in
the United States circuit court for
Colorado, which is in the Sth circuit.

.GOMPERS PRAISES
MAHON AND DEM.
PLATFORM
SAYS DENVER CONVENTION DE.
cLAREs FOR RIGHTS OF UNION
LA6oR-WHAcks TAFT. DENLY
AND UNCLE JOE CANNON.

A strong plea on behalf of the de-
mands of organized labor and parucu-
larly on behalf OF the candidacy or w.
ID. Mahon for congress. was made by
Samuel Gompers. president or the
American Federation OF Labor, TO an
audience of 1000 In the Light Guard
armory, Thursday evening. Those
present were mainly workers In the
labor movement, and the logical. can
did utterances of the great labor leader
produced profound effect.
Many had expected to find Gompers
commanding personality. Instead.
they saw a little old man. with black
skull cap and the face of scholar
rather than a general. But this i'm
press.on faded as soon as he began 10
speak. His efforts we're somewhat
hampered by hoarseness and he was
compelled to make his address short
| to catch a train.
The story Of labor's fight against In
justice in attempting to secure a modi-
fcation OF existing Injunction laws was
detailed simply and earnestly. Com
pers told how he and his co-workers
had gone to Chicago to urge their
cause upon the Republican leaders,
and how they had been given only the
comfort OF an almost meaningless
declaration Il, the national platform.
Then he told his hearers how the
Democratic convention In Denver had
accepted the message OF union labor
and declared for its right.
He challenged the statement of Will
! liam III. Taft that the latter had done
+Hueh-feF- the cause Of labor saying
that Taft's decision In regard to labor
| injunctions Is still followed and that,
| by his ruling. men are still sent to
prison who offend no laws Of the lana.
Then the recent decision OF Judge
Gould, by which labor unions have
been placed In the same category as
trusts, was sarcastically commented
upon.
You are all trust magnates and
liable to a fine of $4,000" declared
Gompers. amid cheers and laughter.
Turning to the candidacy Of Mahon.
President Gompers spoke feelingly Of
his long association with Mahon and
his knowledge OF the latter's honest
and effective work In the interest OF
labor, and his conservative, cool judg-
ment in deciding labor problems. Such
men, Gompers declared, would be bet
ter in congress than too many lawyers.
He assailed Congressman Denby's
labor views and also his association
with the fight for ship subsidy bill.
Joe" Cannon also came in for rap
/ ping none too gentle.
| w. D. Mahon made a forceful 10
minute speech, in which he declared
for reciprocity with Canada, guaranty
OF bank deposits and the postal saw
ings bank and more stringent; legisa'
ton to prevent railroad rate discrim-
nation. He also touched on the cleo.
ton OF United States senators by the
people.
