Olympia-A mass convention of

The certificate was filed about

MANY KILLED IN
MINE DISASTER
FIRE FOLLOWS GAS EXPLOSION
AT ROSLYN, WASH.
SHAFT IS FURNACE BLAST
Destruction OF the Shaft VIII Ma
terially Affect the Coal supply
OF the State.

Roslyn, Wash, Oct. 4.-t1tteen
men are believed to have been killed
or fatally injured in an explosion OIL
gas in the shaft of Mine NO. 4, Oh
the Northwestern Improvement Co..
Sunday afternoon.
The mine in the neighborhood OF
the shaft is burning tiercely, names
rushing through the shaft with an
awful roar. The electric pumps are
cut off and the water supply in the
city is very low. 1t is thought the
fire in the shaft will not affect the
other mines, but it may be SIX
months before the shaft can be put
in working condition again.
The cause of the explosion is I'M
known. The fire bosses had just lett
the mine and had reported all we'll.
Had the accident occurred on a
working day, loss of life, it is feared,
would have been appalling.
The mines of the Northwestern
Improvement Company are the larg-
est in the state and have a producing
capacity of 5000 tons a day and en-
Dloy $500 men. The loss OF the
shaft will materially affect the coal
supply of the state.
The calamity is the worst that
that has befallen the city of ROslyn
since the big explosion on May 10.
1892, when SO lives were lost. The
loss to the mine and buildings Is
estimated and $4,000.

2n CENT RATE IN MISSOURI.

The action of the Burlington rail.
road in Missouri In announcing that It
will voluntarily adopt a 21s-cent pas
senger fare rate May l will probably
succeed in amicably settling the long
drawn-out dispute in that state be-
tween railroads and people over the
passenger fare law. The action OF the
Burlington is an admission that the
road is able to make a profit at 2h
cents, and 1t would be difficult, In
view of this concession, for other roads
to successfully maintain Scent rate
Judge Smith McPherson's ruling
that 2 cents was non-compensatory
and that 2h cents would be apparently
a fair rate, Is pretty well vindicated
by this action on the part of the Bur.
lington. In view Of the courts ruling
1t seems likely that 1t will be hard for
the state, at the present time. to force
the establishment of 2-cent rate, but
even IL this is not gained, the Burling
tons concession will mean much tC
people of Missouri.
And the railroads will find that this
move of voluntary concession will wiz
them more popularity than forcing a
lawsuit on the Scent rate.

ment is reached.

ing. The democrats will make u fake
fight against the bill In vain. Per-
sonally, | believe congress will be
lucky to get away from Washington

las in the house the democrats are
widely split in the senate over the
lumber schedule. II Is generally un'
derstood, that the senators from
Georgia, Florida, North Carolina and
Louisiana lead heavily towards a high
protection to southern lumber and II
is believed possible that enough
democratic votes may be found in the
senate to Offset republican defec
tion for free lumber or even to re
tain the house rates of one-half the
L
Dingley bill. With the possible ex
ception of the Louisiana senators, II
is not understood that any democrats
could be persuaded to vote for the

The Normal School.

Ainsworth Star-Journal: Well, the
Ainsworth normal has not yet ma
terialized. But we made a good fight
and convinced the state that our town
occupied an important position on the
map. We have every reason to be
proud of the fight we made and of the
excellent work done along that line by
our representative, Hon. B. s. Harring-
ton.
The Ainsworth bill passed the house
by good majority but died in. the
senate
However, the Chase bill passed both
houses 1t provides for the location
of a normal school in the big Sixth
congressional district. That, of course,
does not contemplate Kearney, which
already has one, nor any place at the
extreme east or west of the district.
1t really contemplates location along
the Northwestern road in the north
west, as communities on the Burling-
ton can reach Kearney very easily.
To locate the school over there would
be block in the way of the growth of
the Kearney school and leave us on
the Northwestern without normal
school privileges.
Ainsworth is a candidate for that
location, as we believe that our town
can better accommodate the needs Of
this territory than any other point in
the district.

LOOKS WELL FOR NORFOLK.

Norfolk at this time seems to be
upon the threshold of an era of pros
perity such as has not been known fol
many years. There is nothing Of
boom" growth about the situation
nor Is a boom" with its disastrous
after effects desired. But the growth
of the territory tributary to Norfolk Is
taking on such substantial proportions
that Norfolk's way toward prosperity
seems to be greater than it has ever
been before.
Twenty years ago when Norfolk had
"boom" there was nothing to back
up the hope for immediate develop
ment. The north line of railroad Out
of here, for instance, at that time
went only to Creighton; now it ex
tends 100 miles into the new north
west, and there is every prospect 81
its extension still further within the
next few years. Meyer county is tt
be opened within the next five years
throwing still more farming territory
within the radius of the fertile region
already reached through Norfolk as q
gateway. And there is pretty lively
talk at this time-whether it will
amount to any thing or not remains tc
be seen--of the real building of the
long hoped for Yankton-Norfolk rail
road, which would open still more
territory to Norfolk.
There is more activity in local rea
estate than there has been in some
years; there are more homes being
built right now than in many years al
one time. There is prospect of paving
being accomplished within the mex
two years. Business institutions are
branching out and taking advantage O.
the new field being opened up to Nor
folk. New industries are gradual!
coming to the town and those here are
growing.
There's no denying things look wei
for Norfolk at this time. There are
still possibilities to be developed
there is a brick yard and cand!
factory and pickle factory and ;
sugar factory building that ought t.
be turned into real live industries EN-
ploying labor. And they will be. Fac
tories are coming into the smalle
cities and this is going to be fac
tory center some day 1t may no
come right away, but Norfolk will b'
more and more an industrial center.
And with the rich territory it hal
to draw from, there is no reason VIII!
it should not, within ten years, becom,
very much larger and more i'm
portant city than it is today.
For the territory tributary to Nor
\, folk is just beginning to bud out.

When the Farmer Goes to York.

Beatrice Sun: York, the model pro-
hibition city of Nebraska, has taken
another step toward keeping the farm
ers away from town by voting out the
pool and billiard halls. Games and
places of amusement are provided in
the clubs and Y. M. c. A., but these
places are open to members only, and
most of the members live in the 'own.
When farmer or anyone from out
of town comes in he can attend to his
business and get back to work. AS
the York Democrat observes, the
farmers place is out in the field at
work, and the people of York propose
to keep him there. York is a retired
farmers town, and 1t was that element
that decided that the places of smu0e-
ment must go. They don't play bill
lizards themselves. 1t isn't INSIDE
meanor to whittle stick of soft pine
or the top of dry goods box in York,
and visiting farmers will have to CON
fine themselves to that form of amuse-
ment.
