Congress Breaks Its Record.

Washington-The present session
of congress, to end this week, is a
record breaker. The appropriations
of this session so far authorized ex-
coed those of the first session of the
seth congress by more than $780,
100000. The total appropriations
made up to this time aggregate ap-
proximately $S54,844,807. This
amount will be increased by the gen.
eral deficiency and omnibus public
buildings bills and such other meas
ures as may go through before ad-
iournment.

TAFT CERTAIN TO

TOTALS MADE-OPPOSI-
TON TO WANE.
Fairbanks Is Only Favorite Son Who

Washington, d. c., May 16-Wil-
liam II. Taft will be the choice of
the Republican National Convention
for the Presidency. His nomination
is assured on the first ballot. 1t is
within reason that all opposition
will fade away before the balloting
begins at the Coliseum in Chicago,
and that the unanimous nomination
of the Secretary of War Immediately
will follow.
The last delegates to the conven-
ton were elected this afternoon. The
list Of men who will represent the
46 states and the seven territories,
whose delegates will gather in Chi
cago just one month from today,
furnishes the basis for the forecast
which Is presented herewith. Care
full compilation, honest allowance for
conflicting claims, sitting and har-
monizing of statements which have
issued from the headquarters of all
of the candidates for the chief place
on the National ticket produce these
results.
Their figures indicate confidence
in the claim that practically two
thirds of the delegates will take
their seats in the Chicago convention
prepared to vote for the Ohio man.
The compilation of the states and
territories, as indicated above, shows
that nothing but a dispensation of
Providence will prevent the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Taft on the first ballot.

PASSENGERS IN PERIL.
Colorado Midland Train Narrowly Es'
capes Fearful Disaster.

Denver.-One of the most remark
able and narrow escapes from rail-
road catastrophe ever recorded In TINS
state, which probably would have
eclipscd in horror any in the history
Of Colorado railroad wrecks, had II
happened, occurred at O'Clock in the
evening of February 18th, on the west
bound Colorado Midland road as train
No. was rounding the famous Hell
Gate between Busk and Ivanhoe.
Only the presence of mind OF 5. Is.
Hopkins, a Rock Island tourist man
ager, who was on board, prevented the
train from leaping the track at He'll
Gate and falling into the canon below
with it's nine coaches of passengers.
w. r. Armor, former Denver man,
now of Salt Lake. who was on board,
tells the story. The engineer stepped
out of his cab for a moment on the run
ming board of the engine to examine
something. The cab door blew shut
behind him, and the fireman, who had
not seen him go out, thought he had
lost control of the engine and jumped
to save his life. He became frightened
and leaped from the cab himself. The
engine was running down heavy
grade and in a few moments had
gained frightful speed.
Mr.. Hopkins was in one of the Pull
mans and, noticing the unusual speed,
realized that something was wrong. He
seized the emergency brake and pulled
hard. bringing the train TO a sudden
stop just as it was rounding into Hell
Gate, where the chasm is a 1000 feet
down.
The engineer was found upon the
engine, but the fireman was missing.
The passengers instituted a search for
him and after an hours hunting he
was found far back along the track
with both legs broken and otherwise
SO injured that he was still uncon-
scious when removed from the train
to hospital in Glenwood Springs.
The passengers were SO grateful
that they sent a letter to the Rock
Island headquarters at Chicago, COM
mending the action of Mr.. Hopkins.

1.-The possession of the Philippine
Islands and Porto Rico Yields a far
greater influence among the worlds
nations than we at home suppose.
There is a great deal in the influence
of that which affects the eye. The
visit of sixteen battleships to the Pa
cif1c will have an excellent effect for
peace rather than for war.
I'VE are not going about the world
with a chip on our shoulder. We are
not hunting war. That is the last thing
that this country wants.
Il apprehend no danger from the
civilization Of China, as some people

MEETING OF FoREsTERs.
Notable Gathering to Be Held at Fort
Collins In March.

Fort Collins-The foresters Of the
Colorado and Wyoming reserves are to
meet at the Agricultural College in an
nual convention the first week in
March Clifford Plnchot and other gov
eminent officials are booked for ad
dresses during the sessions, which will
last several days. Secretary Taylor OF
the chamber of commerce has complet-
ed arrangements for a public meeting
that week at which the guests from
Washington and some of the leaders in
the active service on the reserves are
to deliver addresses explaining the
work.
The object of the gathering is to stir
public interest in the preservation OF
the forests. especially in this region
where the need OF protection to the wa
tershed is vital to irrigation interests.
Professors Carpenter and Paddock OF
the college will deliver addresses at the
public meeting.
The plan is to have Greeley, Love-
land and other cities send representa-
tives, so that there will be wide dis
semination of the knowledge to be
gained from hearing such men as Pin
chot.
Another matter that is receiving at
tention In connection with the coming
meeting is that of forestry depart
ment at the Agricultural College. There
is but one great school of forestry in
the United States-at Ithaca, New
York, AMI this devotes its energies
chiefly to the matter of preserving the
trees of the Appalachian mountains.
Fort Collins people claim this is an
ideal location for Rocky mountain
school of forestry and are urging that
the city. as we'll as the college authori
ties take up the question during the
coming convention. Colorado College
at Colorado Springs, through the kind
ness OF General Palmer. has had for
est placed at its disposal for practical
work, but there is no chair of forestry
at any western college.
