SECOND FLOOR PLAN.

So little known was this beauty spot
that when the bill providing that 1t
should be taken over by the federal
government was before the last legis-
lature 90 per cent of the members OF
that body were unaware that such q
canyon existed in the state. 1t is iso-
lated from the more populous parts OF
the state, but it is situated close to
two railroads. There is an entrance to
the CANYON within two miles of Canyon
City on the Santa Fe railroad, and 1t
may be easily reached from Amarillo
and other points on the Fort Worth
and Denver railroad. Notwithstand-
ing the proximity of these towns to
the canyon but few attempts have ever
been made to explore its depths and
remote meanderings 1t is occasionally
visited by ranchmen and sportsmen,
and much of the knowledge that Is to
be had of what is contained between
the precipitous walls is obtained from
these men, What few explorations
that have been made were confined TO
the more accessible portions Of the
giant depression. Its grassy valleys
afford grazing ground for many cattle.
These glades are we'll known to the
ranchmen of this region. There are
many rugged features of the canyon
which offer an inviting field for daring
climbers and explorers. There is a
grand mixup of matter in some parts
Of the canyon. The scenery is as i'm
pressive and imposing as that of the
Grand Canyon of the Colorado River.

Childers will visit for a short time

NEW NATIONAL PARK
2aIo Duro Canyon Proffered to
the Government by Texas.
WONDERFUL NATURAL FREAK
Site of Proposed Park Excels Yellow
stone In Witness and Beauty.
Scenery Is as impressive and ImPos-
ing as CoIorado's Grand 0pnyon.
FIRST FLOOR PLAN.

A national park containing many nat
ural wonders and beauties will be es
tablished in the Panhandle of Texas IL
success follows the movement now Oh
foot with that purpose In view. The
Texas state legislature at its last SEES
sion passed law ceding to the United
States government large piece of ter
ritory for use as a national park, says
the Kansas City Star. 1t is expected
that congress will accept the gift and
make adequate appropriation for the
ecessary improvements and assume
the care and protection of the properly.
Embraced in this proposed park Is
the Palo Duro canyon, which Is said
to excel in wild scenic beauties the
wonders of Yellowstone park. The
Palo Duro canyon begins near the Dor
der line between New Mexico and Tex
as and extends southeast to its outlet
in the foothills below the cap rock OF
the plains 1t has length OF about
200 miles. That portion of the canyon
which has been ceded to the federal
government for national park purposes
is about forty miles long and has an
average width of about five miles. In
many places the canyon broadens to
a width of ten miles and more. The
walls along its course are prec1pltous
and rise to height of from 500 to
1900 feet.
This canyon is Rocked upon by geol-
ogists as a wonderful freak of nature
The country adjacent to 1t and extend
ing outward for several hundred miles
is almost as level as floor. 1t Is
great depression situated in the very
heart of what is known as the Llano
Estacado, or Staked Plain. There Is
such an absence of all ruggedness OF
formation of the country adjoining 1t
that the giant offset1in the earth's sur
face is not noticeable. until almost the
very brink Of the canyon is reached.
1t has the appearance Of having been
created by the sudden dropping out OF
the bottom Of long strip In the crust
of Mother Earth during the formative
period.
The wonders of Palo Duro still are
comparatively unknown Its wild re-
cesses never have been explored. lts
physical features are wholly diHerent
from the bare and monctonous plains
country IA the midst sof which 1t lies.

They Differ Or The Cotton
Crop.

One year ago the cotton gamblers
we're telling the people Of the world
the cotton crop would exceed 13,500,-
600 bales. The Cotton Journal con-
tended the yield would be about H..
ao0. 600 bales. The crop ginned out
and including linters amounted to H.
-sz5. 1872 bales. This year these same
gamblers, aided by the same buyers.
S,ave been busy during the past few
months trying to create the impression
chat the crop of 1908 would reach A.
600. 900 to 16, 900, 900 bales, all of
which is tommy-rot-pure nonsense.
The Cotton Journal, from the most
reIfahle information obtainable from
cvery station Of the Belt, claims the
zoos crop will not exceed 100000
s,a,es. Don't be stampeded by gam
a,,ers or the Federated interests. Sell

being entirely frank and honest with
our readers. We believe the 1908
crop will be in the neighborhood OF
ID, 900, 900 bales. Texas will make a
million and a half more bales this
year than last"
Let the reader remember, however,
that the Cation and Cotton Oil News
is a journal that has sought to up

ket and seeks to remind the farmers
that the fight on cotton exchanges

the reason that the price Of cotton is

themselves from a custom that has

making it. No one expected the ex-
changes and the mOneyed sharks who
have thrived through the gambling
in cotton to relinQuish what they
have so long enjoyed without attempt.

suppose every other Democrat were to

ten thousand in each congressional

constituency. We certainly
ought to poll as many votes i'm the

Giving Things Their Right
Names.

Tn the estimation Of some people
the ofsensiveness Of an act and the
wrong doing of an individual seems to
be lessened if, instead OF using the
SIMPLEST aud most direct language IS
used. A man who steals would much
rather be called a ~defaulter" or
''embenzler'' than q thief" 10
doesn't sound quite as bad to say
that be appropriated" as that he
''stole. To be called a "shoplifter"
is a disgrace, but to be called a victim
of kleptOmania one feels that he is an
object Of pity. To be termed q
''habltual drunkard'" hurts ones fee+
ings badly, but to be known asa
s'diusomanica" awakens no such feea-
ing.
1t is a like desire to smooth things
over and escape the just penalty ol
crime that is responsible for s1cn
terms as brain STORM" moral in-
sanity. and other similar devices.
They remind us OF the black man who
was caught one night stealing WOOD
from his neixhbor's wO0dpile, aud
who, when called a thief, replied in
an injured tone, "Don't call me a
thief Use morally insane" A little
more calling of things by their right
names and following up the wrong
doings with just punishment might
have a wholesome effect.-Columbus

MAN HER WITH
FLoRIDIANs
Punta Gorda Herald.

Let us man the battleship Florida
with Floridians. There are several
excellent reasons for this suggestion
the first and most important being
that we have the right kind of men
and all they need is a little training.
To this end, we should at once take
steps to organize a naval reserve and
put men in training for their duties
on the battleship.
Another good reason for placing the
great battleship in the hands of Flor
idians is the fact that il would arouse
in them spirit of generous and pa
triotic rivalry to surp2ss all other war
ship crews in the efficient handling OF
the fighting levia;nan. Pride would
inspire them to do their best to make
for the Florida a glorious fame as
the best managed and, therefore, the
most efficient ship of the navy.
1t Is recognition of this splendid
effect of exciting patriotic rivalry that,
in army service causes the command
er in battle to place regiments of
men from different states in close po-
sition to each other, that the bravery
displayed by one regiment may inspire
an increase of valor In the neighbor-
ing ranks from another stale.
If men in the army are grouped to
gether according to states, why not
men in the navy? II would assuredly
have a wholesome moral effect.
Let US take steps to have our great
naval nanaesake committed to the care
OF Floridians, who Will take pride in
her and exert Themselves to make her
the undisputed queen of all the ma
vies of the world.
Our senators and representatives in
congress will no doubt take pleasure
In doing all they can to have this sug-
gestion adopted las they viii share IN
the glory which viii result from il.
