A RAILWAY HOlD-UP
Which Was circumvented by Advance
 Information

Miami, Okla. Jan. 15.-It was learn ed today that robbers had planned to wreck and rob near here the fast southern passenger train on the St. Louis and San Francisco road that left Kansas City tonight. The railway of fieials received advance information of the proposed attempt and armed men lay in wait for the robbers. It is believed that they were scared off.
 Officers will guard the train tonight against second attempt. It is be- lieved that the robbers planned to get away with large shipment of money to the Indian Territory that the train was routed to carry.

bred trotting stallion Stan Dell. The visiting members of the party express ed themselves many times as greatly surprised to find as fine farms as they had eyed heard of, and fields full of cattle that were of as good breeding as could be found anywhere. and all fat and eating green alfalfa from the pastures these January days.
 A number of farmers were asked for prices on their land. Only two were found who would sell out all of their holdings. A number however will sell a part of their holdings. They say by doing so they can better attend to what they will keep and at the same time help the country by adding more families and thereby help themselves. MT. Layne Sr., has beside his farming interests. banking and mercantile in- terests in his home town and there fore has business experience that com pels us to believe his opinion joined in by other members of our party. that the Buckeye country offers better in ducements and has a greater future at a less expense than any other part of the west he has ever seen, to be a conservative one and an opinion that is worthy the careful consideration by the farmers who are fortunate enough to possess holdings there and also peo- pie who are looking for homes where the climate of Arizona is a considera- tion. In the Buckeye country they have the climate that prevails over the valley. their land is cheap. they have worlds of water. It costs no more to live there than to exist in any other part of the country and an absolute certainty of advancement in prices. The people are hospitable and are glad to show any one over their coun- try.

eight per cent for their money will not give up half of

COSGROVE'S ELECTION UNANIMOUS

THE SEATTLE REPUBLICAN is still of the opinion that
the of the state of Washington should make the
nomination of Samuel G. Cosgrove unanimous the
mouthings of the Democratic mossbacks to the con-
trary Notwithstanding 1t believes for the reaaon
that in Cosgrove the voters have candidate that
stands for all that's pure and good only in the adj
ministraton of public affairs but likewise in the homes
and at the fresdes, and what nober aim higher pur
pose could human being have? On the other hand
as much be truthfuly said of John
the Democratic candidate for governor? No Repubi-
can has any for voting against Cosgrove for
governor but can any Democrat, who is good loyal
citizen with ambitions for the of his son. cast
his vote for John Pattson alias John Preston notwth
standing the fact that he has been nominated for the
highest office in the gift of the citizens of the state?
In spreading the report that Mr. Cosgrove is sick unto
death and it would be like unto electing dead to
an office if he is elected governor the Democratic ad
vocates going long way out of their way to do
fellow injustice but with Cosgrove dead before
he ever qualified governor, it would be thousand
times more honorable well as eevating for the ct-
zens of the state of Washington to elect him than Pat
tson for even the very memory of Cosgrove would
outshne any deeds that Pattison might do. In fact it
would be public calamity for the voters of the state
to not give Mr. Cosgrove not only the largest vote
given to any gubernatora candidate, in view of the
fact there voters in the state than before
but because he is that kind of man that the public has
been clamordg for-uprigh honorable and greatest of
candidate for governor to succeed himself who is the
quntesence of honesty and all that go to make good
citizen, but in his candidacy New York has the
best of the state of Washington which has her lead
ing candidate for governor Samuel Goodove Cosgrove
who will be overwhelmingly elected and who will give
to the citizens of the state just good administration
as has Mr. Hughes given the state of New York for the
past two years. and those of who know Mr. Cosgove
best think even better one which is saying great
DEAL In this day of grafters seeking the Office it ae-
dom happens that men of the stripe of Gov Hughes
and Farmer Cosgrove are selected candidates, and
when they are the voters should rejoice and feel glad
and make their elections practically unanimous But
few nights ago the Times the journalistic swlbarre
of the Northwest announced under flaming headlines
the dangerous and apparent illness of Mr. Cosgrove,
no part of which is true but is just like that purid
skunk to publish the most despicabe lie its Murky Matt
can coniure up No wonder loses battle after an
other and has earned for tfelf the axiom Saw in
the Times? Damn lie!" Mr.. Cosgrove's family ply
sican says he is not only not in dangerous condition.
but he is growing physically stronger every day.

OPEN FIGHT FOR
HIGH LIQUOR TAX
Churchmen and Members of
Civic Betterment League
Support $1,000 License
Pastors Urge MurdOck Measure
as First Step to Control
the Saloons

Under the auspices of the Civic Bet
terment federation the first of series
of public meetings to create sentiment
in favor of Supervisor Charles Muir
docks $1,000 liquor license ordinance
was held yesterday afternoon in st.
Helen's hall at Market and Fifteenth
streets. More than 100 church people
and members of the federation. men
and women. applauded the high license
idea.
Murdock explained that his measure
was not aimed at prohibition, but
merely It control of the saloons and
to raise more revenue for the city At
the lowest estimate, he said, S1,000,0 900
more would be paid into the treasury.
I'm not a teetotaler and do not be-
lieve in prohibition" said Murdock.
But ] do think saloons should be
controlled by the municipality. San
Francisco is the only city of its size
in the United States where $1,000 is
not the prevailing license. If the ordf-
nance should fail to pass the people
still have another chance to get their
rights at the next election"
Rev Carl Warner declared that liquor
dealers had no rights under the law.
but only enjoyed privileges. The pass
ing of the ordinance. he said, would be
the first step toward destroying Bar
barry coast. Warner said the coast had
no parallel in the country and called
it a place where vice had been turned
loose to do as it pleased.
THE ordinance said Rev. S. c. Pat
terson, will be the first step in OBJ
tanning ward local option. Let's admit
we can't drive out the saloons, but we
can and must control them"
Other speakers were Thomas e.
Haven, president of the Iroquos club;
j. L. Kennedy and d. p. Shutteton
j. w. Hatch presided.
Other meetings viii be called next
