of six government repositories, which
are to handle the receipts of the United
States forest service, after December l,
when its organization for the admins

removed from Washington to six field
districts in the west, have been an
nounced.
The designation of western banks to
handle the moneys received from tim
ber sales, permits for stock grazing and
for special uses of various resources in
the national forests, is an innovation
which will mean that all the receipts
of the forest service in the future will
be deposited to the credit of the treas
urer of the United States and made
available for circulation in the part of
the country from which it is derived,
within the limits of the amounts al
lowed by law for government deposits,
instead of being forwarded to the treas
urer at Washington.
The banks which have been named on
the Pacific coast are:
First national bank Albuquerque. " NJ. head

RUFF CONDEMNED
AT CITY ELECTION
Rev. Walter E. Tanner Sees
Vote of Confidence for Graft
Prosecution

OAKLAND, Nov. S.-sIt is gratifying
that the people of San Francisco re-
pudiated Abe Ruef by the reelection of
Judge Dunno last Tuesday," declared
Rev. Walter E. Tanner, pastor of Mel
rose Baptist church, In discourse to-
1T was crushing defeat" the cler-
gyman said, for that coterie of graft
ers and boodlers of which Ruef was
the leader 1t was an Endorsement of
the graft prosecution, vote of conf
dence and appreciation for Heney,
Spreckels. Langdon, Burns and others
who have labored for civic decency. 1t
was an event which makes every pa
triotic Californian and American citi-
zen lift his head with pride. 1t was a
great triumph for the independent voter
who, in this instance. made the issue
and the man paramount to his party
fealty
TT sounds note of warning to the
ring politician which he can not afford
to ignore. 1t means that at Sacra-
mento the new legislature must pass
bills eliminating the racetrack, pro-
viding for direct primary and other
needed reforms. If this be not done
many political career will be driven
on the rocks by the gales of popular
disapproval.
Complete desired results were not
obtained in the state and Alameda
county, but the gains for civic right
eousness were so great that the future
is bright with hope.
1T is essential that every good citi-
zen give these officials to understand
that they will have their backing in
conscientious law making and enforce
ment, and their unqualified condemna-
tion crystalized in their future voting
at the primaries if they become the
servants of the racetrack grafters or
corrupt corporations"

SERMON ARRAIGNS
RUFF AND GRAF TERS

"Ruef, confessed criminal, devil incar-
nate, who used every means of cOrrup-
tion and prostituted n whole cOmmu-
him, hence he is prosecuted. Putting
the law on trial, the public officials, the
courts: Whys Because he has money.
Because the interests supporting
him. Excerpt from a sermon by Rev.
Leon L. Loofbourow, pastor of the
Eighth avenue Methodist church of Oak
land.
OAKLAND, Nov. S.-Rev. Leon l..
Loofbourow arraigned the graft crowd
of San Francisco on its attitude toward
the courts in a sermon on Who Is On
Trial?" at the Eighth avenue Methodist
Episcopal church, corner of Eighth ave-
nue. and East Seventeenth street, to-
night.
He spoke of the modern attitude of
persons who have been convicted of
wrong. who appear to believe that the
fault lies with God and the law, instead
of condemning themselves for their mis-
deeds. He said:
The world is not right. Some one is
TO blame Is the unrightness Gods fault
or is it mans fault? 1t is the fault of
one or the other. Which is to blame? =?
Who is on trial?
AGE THAT GLORIFIES MAN
I'm E. E. Hale's story you may re-
member how the children picked ont
their grandfathers How much more
presumptuous for man to criticise God
Ever since Christ was on earth men
have been putting God, right, truth and
decency in the prisoners box. The in
structors catechism says that the chief
end of man is to gIorify God. Our own
age replies that the chief end of God is
to glorify man.
"Ruef, confessed criminal devil in
carnate, who used every means of cor
ruption and sold the bodies and souls
of whole community of men and
women and prostituted a whole COM
munity, assumes an odor of sanctity;
says the prosecutors are not gentle
men and that the judges are not kind
to him, hence he is prosecuted. Put
ting the law on trial, The public Off
cials, The courtsi Why? Because he
has money. Because the interests are
supporting him.
CRIMINALS LIKE CUTTLEFISH
1T is not a question of whether we
like the personnel of the prosecution.
1t is SIMPLY JnlSs Sondll VIC IldNS law VI
brute force? Shall we have civilization
or anarchy? Shall the law try man
or shall man try the law?
The cuttlefish lives and works in the
dark. If 1T is ever dragged out into the
light 1t throws out it's ink to cloud he
waters that it may escape The graft
crowd in San Francisco tries to escape
in the same manner.
$50 man puts God on trial-the man
who temporizes with sin. Because his
retribution is not immediate the fool
who says in his heart there is no God
thinks he can cheat the day of judg-
ment.
1T is the people who are placed in
responsible positions who are on trial
before God. Judges, courts and COM
munities as a whole are on trial be-
fore God and the world. When will
we learn that truth alone rules, that
conscience is the only path to peace!"

our benefit, the following extracts from
the speech of Mr.. Matsukata, Chairman
of the Kobe Chamber of Commerce, are
significant
You know, and have heard very
often since your arrival on japanese
shore. words expressive of our indebt-
edness to you, and of our appreciation
of our time-honored relation to the
United States, but let me repeat once
more. if you please. our obligation to-
ward your country; and, on your re-
turn home, if you will kindly tell 1t
to your friends, | shall feel grateful.
We hope you understand fully that we
are not saying it as compliment thaC
Japanese progress and Japanese clVlll-
cation are largely indebted to America.
| mean it and we really owe very, very
much to you!
"A large majority of our people,
when our benefactor, Commodore Per-
nv. came to our shore, over fifty years
ago, were opposed to the opening OF
our country, and adverse to foreign IN
tercourse of any kind. | would not
have blamed the wishes of the majority
tnen. for we had been enjoying a peace
full life for three centuries under the
Tokugawa regime, and cared not to be
bothered with foreign arrangements
We were accustomed to peace, we loVeo
peace, and this feeling was strengthen
ed by the knowledge of the troubles
China had to contend with in her deai
ings with foreign countries. However
we were forced to open our country
and conclude a treaty against our VII
for the sake of humanity and the ad'
yancement of civilization. Since then
we have realized that we were mis-
taken as a nation in entertaining inc
idea to exclude ourselves from th'
membership of the family of nations
This treaty may be said to have lai'
the foundation of the present status o
Japan, and the landing spot OF on
benefactor Commodore Perry at Urag
is now marked with permanent an
superb monument to his spirit.
I'm the spirit with which you hav
done favors to other nations, we re
cognize the beacon light OF the worn
civilizer Nationality, race distlnctloI
and language have no signi1canc
whatever in your eyes, being absorbe

The Gem vein shows steady improve
ment in size as we'll as in the quality
of the ore. The sulphides have Wtdeneo

grade of ore shows further betterment.
The striking improvement, however, Is

The Future Copper vein, where cut by

NEW MEXICO GAINS AS
GREAT COKE PRODUCER
JUMPS TO FIFTEENTH PLACE IN
STATE GROUP
In 1908 Territory Had f26 Coke Ovens
and In 1907 Increased to sse
Ovens and 2s5,125
Tons output

New Mexico Is assuming consider
able Importance as coke producer,
according to e. w. Parker. chief sta
tistioian of the United States geolog-
teal survey, notable progress having
been made during the last three years.
In 1903 there were but two coke
making establishments in the terri
tory. with total of 126 ovens. and the
production amounted to 11.O50 tons. In
1904 the number of establishments was
increased to three, the number of ovens
to 2S4, and the output to 5S,259 tons.
In 1905 the same number of establish
ments reported 25S ovens completed
and 489 building, and the production
amounted to S9,633 tons. In 1905 -FOUR
establishments with total OF 671 COM
pleted ovens and 400 building produced
147,77 tons of coke. OF the ovens build
ing In 1906, 1926 were completed in 1907,
increasing the total number of COM
pleted ovens to S96, and the produce
tion of coke increased to 266, 125 tons.
The Increase In 1907 advanced the
territory from sixteenth to fifteenth
place in the rank of the coke-producing
states and territories, and gave New
Mexico q larger percentage of increase
than any other state or territory ex-
cept Kansas. In Kansas, however, the
production of either year was insignih-
cant. The increase of New Mexico's
coke production In 1907 over 1906 was
117,378 tons, or 79.45 per cent, in guam
tity and $397,541, or 1913 per cent, In
value. The average price per ton in
creased from $S In 1905 to $3.17 in 1907.
One of the establishments, having a
bank OF fifty ovens, was Idle during
the year.
OF the 44614o tons of coal converted
into coke in the territory in 1907, all
except 249S tons was washed slack
