San ANTONIO CITY BEAUTIFUL
Editor Continues the Tale Of His EIopement
with Julia Through Sunshine
Land.

Perhaps our readers will remember
that the account of our hurried flight
with "Julia' across the plains of
Texas halted abruptly at the little
town of Rosenberg. We wandered
about the little village in the moon

another and we no longer wondered

To understand San Antonio" San
antone' the natives call it. one must
resort to his book of history.
1t appears that in 1889. long before
a white foot had rested on the prair-
les of Iowa, the French landed an
expedition at La Vaca bay on the
coast of southeast Texas. The Span
iards met this by sending an armed
force north from Mexico and this
force built block house at place
they called San Antonio.
The padre followed the soldier. a
church sprang up on the ruins of the
fort. mission houses were built and
their massive walls served to protect
the priests, the Spanish adventures
and the friendly Indians, from the
outbreaks of the fiercer tribes. And
thus for a hundred and fifty years
flourished this old civilization of
Spain engrafted upon the new world.
With its bright, fierce sunlight. its
gentle breezes from the gulf. its
never ending summer it must have
been very like the old Spain to the
conquerer and it is true that they lost
desire for the home of their fathers
and became contented to live and in
termarry with the Indians and show
themselves the true Knights OF

forefathers had been.

GIVE ROADS MORE TIME.
Government Will Not Prosecute Un-
 der Commodity Clause.

Washington, D. C.-The govern ment will not prosecute railroads for failure to comply with the com modity clause of the railroad rate law, pending decision of the supreme court. This decision has been arrived at. 1t is understood, after careful con- sideration by the president, and that he has, accordingly, directed the de- partment of justice to bring a test case as soon as possible after May 1. the day when becomes effective the law forbidding any railroad to trans port any article or commodity or oth- CT than timber manufactured. mined or produced by such road, or in which it is directly or indirectly interested. Thus any railroad that owns coal mines would be liable to prosecution should 1t carry it sown coal to mar ket.

Interest ia the results of last We'd hesday's primary is now centered all most entirely in the race of Hal L. Norwood and P. R. Andrews, for at torney general.
 Until Tuesday morning there was a great deal of interest in the races be- tween O. c. Ludwig and J. c. Clary, for secretary of state, and John R. lobe and John M Oathout, for audi tor. Returns received Monday and Monday night, however, leave practi- cally no doubt that Ludwig and lobe are victorious candidates in the two races. According to the returns re- ceived, Ludwig has a majority of 4272 votes, and lobe a majority of 10, ,426 votes.
 The race for the attorney general ship between Hal L. Norwood and P. R. Andrews, which has been in doubt since the first returns from Wednes- days primary, began coming in. ap- peared Monday night to be in favor of Norwood The results in 62 coun- ties show that Norwood had received 54 ,905 votes and Andrews 47,004, the majority in these counties for Nor wood being 1901. The counties from which official returns have not been received are Benton, Carroll, Clay, Independence. Johnson, Logan, Madi- son. Montgomery, Newton, Pike. Searcy, Stone and Woodruff In the Democratic state primary two years ago. these 13 counties polled about 21 ,500 votes. To overcome the lead which Norwood has in the 62 coun- ties it will be necessary for Andrews to get very large majority of the vote of the 13 counties from which returns have not been received.
 In the contest for secretary of state the returns from 59 counties show that o. c. Ludwig has a majority of 4,272 the vote being: Ludwig 33.5S3. J. C.. Clary 2S.311.
 From the same number of counties the returns give J. R. lobe, for audi tor, a majority of 10. .426, the vote be- ing lobe 32,3S4, Oathout 21,955.

MINERS ON STRIKE
GENERAL WAlkOUT OF MINERS
 THROUGHOUT COUNTRY.
25O,OOO LAY DOWN THEIR PICKS
Abandon Jobs Because the Operators Show No inclination to Make New
 Contracts with the Union.

1ndianapolis-The union miners in most of the coal fields of the country laid down their picks and shovels Tuesday night. Almost 250000 of them stopped work in Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, Missouri, Iowa, Kan sas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas and probably in Indiana and Kentucky. The mining contracts under which they are now working expired at mid night Tuesday night and, except in Central Pennsylvania and in the In- diana block district, no contracts have been made, nor have the miners and though no question of wage or princi. operators yet entered into district agreements providing for the opera tion of the mines after April 1 pend- ing agreement
 This is a possibility in the Indiana bituminous coal district In Illinois. | Michigan and West Virginia. The In- 1 diana bituminous coal district, West ] ern Pennsylvania and Illinois miners and operators are in joint sessions at Terre Haute, Pittsburg and Spring l field.
 Technically. the miners will go out l on strike, but in reality they stop work | because the operators, except Tn In- | diana and Illinois, show no intention | of meeting and treating with them, pie is at stake. -?
 s,,va,,o, in Illinois. .,i Illinois operators have demanded that the miners work exclusively for them or they will not make con- tract.
 The operators and miners are in session in Springfield The miners wish work to continue and at late hour Tuesday morning it was said that an agreement might be reached.
 Ohio operators are anxious for shutdown. They kept the miners busy all winter and piled up an enormous amount of coal that there Is no pros- pect of selling. Besides, they have 3000,000 tons stored in upper lake ports that they failed to sell this winter because of the lack of orders.
 Sixty Thousand in Southwest.
 In the southwest the miners asked for an increase in wages. Advices from Topeka state the operators had emphatically refused to pay more money and that at least 60000 miners would be thrown out of work Wednes. day in Oklahoma Texas, arkansas, Kansas and Missouri.
 Michigan miners are governed by the rules laid down by the Indianap- oils convention of the miners, and will stop work Wednesday unless the operators agree to pay the present wage scale and make certain conces- sions as to working conditions
 Kentucky operators are also asking the miners to give concessions. While there are not many miners in that state who will be affected. the opera tors have apparently adopted the same 1 policy as operators in other states.
 Either the miners must refuse to work for outsiders. says the operators association, or the Illinois Operators association will refuse to make con- tract with the miners.

BOOZE" AND FARM HELP.
Governor Boies Says Mulct Law Keeps
Out FOREIGNERS.

| Waterloo, Oct. Ex-Governor Horace
Boies has entered into the present wide
discussion of the problem of improving
conditions of farm life to advance a
new explanation of the scarcity of la
Dor on the farms in Iowa Governor
Boies declares that Iowa's sumptuary
laws-those dealing with the liquor
question--have been n bar to the com :
ing Of immigrant farm laborers to the
state and that nasmuch as Iowa must
look to the foreigner chiefly to do its
farm work, the scarcity of farm labor
is due directly to the operation Of these
liquor laws.
Governor Boies' views upon this mat
ter are stated in an extended letter to
the editor of the Waterloo Tribune
which is published this morning. This
letter is prompted by recent article
in Wallaces' Farmer written by Henry
Wallace. in which 1.-THE Farm Labor
Problem" was discussed. Mr.. Wallace
concluded with the inquiry, What then
shall we do to increase the number Of
farm laborers ~ to which he himself re-
piled, "Frankly. we don't know"
1t is Governor Boies" conclusion that
the foreigner is absolutely essential to
the solution of the farm labor problem
In Iowa He justifies his conclusion by
his own failure to secure competent
help in operating his $500 acre farm in
Grundy county, compelling him to
adopt another method of cultivating

BYWATER CLAIMS SETTLED.
Iowa Falls Health Board Claimed l
Never Employed Doctor.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, Oct. 29.-After several
meetings to consider the legal status of
the case, the local board of health has
finally disposed of the two claims filed
about month ago by DR. T.. n. By
water, of this city, for professional
services in two quarantine cases. one
at the home of Nels Nelson. and the
other at that Of John O'Hearn. One
bin was for $40. and s33 paid FOR nurse
hire by the doctor the other being $50
for professional visits, at IS each. The
local board took the position that 1t had
never employed the doctor. and SO was
not legally liable to certify the bills
to the county board of supervisors for
payment But after careful considera
ton of the claims, and taking legal
advise from the city solicitor. the board
decided to recommend the payment of
$72 for the $50 bill. and $50 for the
SO bill, 1t being the evident intent to
cut the charge to 81 a visit, and not
allow the nurse bin AT the same meet
ing the board decided to fix the
charges FOR doctors and nurses in quar-
antine cases in the future. when en-
ployed by the local board.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, Oct. 2e.--In spite of the
efforts of The republican speakers and
the press to explain the meaning and
scope of the primary which will be
held in connection with the general
election next Tuesday, there appears
still to be mistaken idea of its ef-
feet. Reports have reached Des
Moines from several sources that DEM
ocratic candidates and speakers are
spreading the idea in some sections
that the man who receives the high
est number of votes at the primary viii!
be- elected United States senator, no
matter whether the next legislature is
republican or democratic.
This. as everyone conversant with
for either candidate for the legislature
Is lost unless the voter also casts his
ballot for the candidates for the house
of representatives and the senate from
Iis district. Neither Governor Cummins
MR. Major Lacey can be elected unless
there is republican legislature to
elect him. The primary only names
which of the. two gentlemen the legis-
laturc. If republican. will elect. If
there is a democratic legislature, Meth
er will win.
The effect of the pledges Of the re-
publican candidates for state senator
and state representatives. which the
republican state central committee has
secured. is to insure that the result
of the primary will be final In de-
termining which one of the two. Mr..
Cummins or Mr.. Lacey, will be United
States senator in case the legislature
is republican. In voting for a republi-
can candidate for the legislature, the
voter can be assured that no matter
what his personal preference may be,
he will vote for the man who receives
the highest number of votes at the
primary.
