How To Make st. Francis County Grow

Why not double the wealth of St. Fracis county:
 The means by which il can de done are simple and easily understood. This is written for the purpose of stating a practical plan which will do the work.
 The basis of all wealth is good land. St. Francis county certainly has the basis all right The sun does not shine on better soil than that east of Crowley Ridge. and the west bottom land. put into high state of cultiya- tion, with proper rotation of crops. will annually produce more money than the high priced land of Illinois.
 But it takes people as we'll as good land to make prosperous country. St. Francis county has some of the finest. The kind a man would like to live among. But it needs more peo- pie 10 take up the unoccupied land. On every eighty or one hundred and sixty acres put a hard-working money saving farmer and his family-the kind that want to have the best crops. the finest stock, and a good bank ac- count, and the wealth of the county would be quadrupled
 Mills and factories bring something. but If you want the most solid pros- perity, if you want 10 double the pop ulation of Forrest City in hurry. bring in enough industrious people 10 blow and plant, and gather the riches of the soil. They will create real wealth, the banks will need bigger vaults, and the merchants will need bigger stores to care for increasing business.
 Can the people be secured?
 We are ready 10 propose to the busi- ness men of Forrest City plan by which two hundred 10 four hundred families direct from the north of Eu- rope may be secured. Each family will buy land, say eighty acres to the family They are practical farmers: they have always lived close 10 the soil, and know how to get the most out of it. They are people who will farm the land in the most vigorous and painstaking manner. They be- long 10 the thriftiest class of old country people. They will not be looking for any other mans job. but will create place for themselves in the community, and will add greatly to its wealth and prosperity
 Some of them will be starting this way inside of sixty or ninety days Others are going 10 follow Does St. Francis county want these people? We are coming to Forrest City shortly to find out. Fill up the country and that will boom the town. Open up all the land for farming with indus trious people and St. Francis county will be one of the richest and most prosperous in the state

The trial of Steve Adams. charged
with the murder of Arthur Collins
near Telluride in 1902, will take
place at Grand Junction, beginning
June % next, Judge Shackleford
having granted change of venue
from the district court of San Miguel
county. 1t is extremely doubtful in
view of the existing state of feeling
of hostility against Adams. if he
could have had fair and impartial
trial at Telluride; so the acton of
the court in sending the case to an-
other county for trial is but an act
of justice. Adams is entitled to. and
will. without doubt, get fair trial
for in law every accused man is sup
posed to be innocent until proved
guilty. However. no matter what
the result of the trial may be. it will
not change public sentiment one iota
respecting his guilt.-Fort Collins

Very early must Mr.. Edwin Gould
retire, according to the Morning
Yellow. Yesterday The Sentinel an
nounced that the multimillionaire
and several friends had passed
through the city on Monday night in
Mr.. Gould's private car, spending
about 25 minutes in this city. The
Yellow should have had the an
nouncement yesterday morning: but.
as usual, waited until The Sentinel
had it first. then reproduced it with
an attempt to discredit the story, as
is so characteristic of the Yellow.
Mr.. Gould reached Grand Junction
before O'Clock. while he was hav-
ing dinner. Yet the Yellow, in an
effort to leave the impression that
he saw nothing of this valley or city,
said that he was sleeping when his
train passed through.

WANTS RIO GRANDE TO
PAY HER S125,OOO FOR ARM

The trial of suit for the large st
damages ever asked in the third 4 s.
trict court was begun yesterday be-
fore Judge Lewis.
The plaintif is Katherine Porter
and she is asking the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad Company to pay her
$125 900 for the loss of her arm in
a wreck between Silverton and Du-
range, Colo, December "a. 1905.
The car in which she was riding
jumped the track and turned over.
Miss Porter was thrown from one
side to the other and her right arm
was forced through the window and
dragged beneath the overturned car
a distance of 300 feet and actually
torn to pieces.
The complaint asserts that the
track was out of repair and that the
company was guilty of gross negli-
gence in leaving it in that condition.
Besides actual damages, Miss Por-
ter is asking for exemplary and punt
tive damages. The question as to
whether damages on these counts
should be submitted to a jury was
argued at some length before Judge
Lewis last week and decided in ia
vor of the plaintiff.
Miss Porter is most attractive
young woman and previous to the
accident was a hairdresser. She is
well known in Salt Lake.
The, railroad company has sum
moned about 80 witnesses and the
plaintiff will have nearl.. as many.
1t is expected that the trial will last
two or three weeks.-Salt Lake Her

MINERAL PAINT PRODUCTION.

In 1906 the total production in the
United States of natural pig nents,
consisting of metallic paint and mortar
colors, ocher, umber, sienna, zinc
white, slate, and carbonaceous shales
and schists, amounted to 124,601 short
tons, valued at $6,521,104, as against
125,202 short tons, valued at $6,245, 173,
in 1905, a decrease of COL short tons
in quantity in 1906, but an increase of
$275,931 in value. The decrease in
quantity reported is due chiefly to
greater care in eliminating from the
statistical returns such pigments as
are not manufactured directly from
mineral raw materials. The 3roduc-
tion of ocher, zinc white, and metallic
paint showed increases in both guam
atty and value.
Pennsylvania leads in the produc-
ton of ocher, Georgia standing second.
Virginia shows a considerably in
creased production of ocher, and for
the first time Kentucky reports an
output of this material. Pennsylvania
is also the largest producer or metallic
paint and ground slate and shale, New
York being second. An advance chap
ter from Mineral Resources of the

Richer Than King and Lived Law
ishIy.
About the year 1880 Charles ", en-
peror of Germany, viewing the royal
treasury at Paris, remarked: 81 have
a weaver in Augsburg able to buy all
this with his own gold.
This weaver, who was in fact some
thing more than weaver, being
great merchant prince and manufac-
turer, was Anton Fugger, who lodged
the emperor in his own house for a
whole year during the celebrated diet
of Augsburg. He warmed the emperor
before a fire of cinnamon wood and
burned in that same fire bonds rep
resenting large sums owing him by
bis majesty.
Nor was Anton's liability confined to
royalty. He founded hospitals ard
schools on a most generous scale;
built model houses which were leased
to industrious burghers for very
moderate rental and contributed to
every benevolent scheme.
Notwithstanding this eleemosynary
profusion he left six million gold
! crowns in cash, besides ships on every
sea and precious articles, jewels and
properties in all countries of Europe
and both the Indies. This fortune,
computed by the stands of shat day,
was probably equal to that popularity
supposed to be possessed now by John
D. Rockefeller.
The founder of the Fugger family
was one Jacob, who died in 1859. He
did actually drive the shuttle in the
village of Goeggingen, near Augsburg.
He accumulated a substantial fortune.
His descendants proved thrifty and IN
creased the business and the wealth
until the family was able to make no
bic ano even royal alliances and to cut
a great figure in financial and polit-
/ ical affairs.
The period of the rise Of this fam
| dv was the golden age OF Germany's
industrial and financial development
from the early fifteenth to the early
seventeenth century. A distinguished
writer has said of that period: "Com-
merce was pouring new strength into
every peaceable community. The
Hanse league secured the fruits of in
dustry all over the north. The hav-
ems of the Netherlands were thTonged
with ships. Far inland hourished mar
ket cities with cunning workmen, spa
| cious warehouses, and merchants,
who in opulence, We'd with the rich
est"
The Fugger family was not the only
family that grew great from small be-
gtnnings. There were numerous 9th
ers. notably the Weslers, who were
