IN SENATE

Washington, Jan. 12.-The illegal
diversion of public funds by the Pres.
ident and by Taft while secretary OF
war, to pay for the investigation by
private detectives into the Browns
vile affair, was charged by Senator
Foraker in the senate today in a
speech replying to the statements OF
Herbert J. Browne, of this city and
William G. Baldwin, of Virginia, who
were employed by the secretary of
war to secure evidence of the guilt of
the negro soldiers in shooting up
Brownsville in 1906. In concluding his
remarks Foraker charged that SIS, 900
was illegally diverted from the thirty
seven million war fund appropriated
in 1899, and that this money was ille-
gally used, first in employing detec.
tives; second that no itemized account
of the uses to which this money was
put was ever filed. The third Illegal
act cited by the Senator was that con.
fessions and testimony were secured
by the offers of rewards. The millions
from which this $4,000 was diverted
was appropriated for unforeseen exig-
encies during the Spanish war and
should not have been used for any
other purpose
The galleries were filled and a large
attendance of senators were on hand
when Foraker arose to deliver his ad-
dress He read his address in a clear
voice that enabled all to readily fol
low every word of his statements.

MANY MINERS KILLED IN
MINE EXPi OSION. |

Bluefie1d w. Va, Jan. 12.-As the
result of another explosion at the
Lick branch mine at Switchback, about
twenty miles from here, between fif-
ty and a hundred miners were killed
at $50 this morning. The number
NAV be largely increased, as from 2S0
to 300 miners were at work at the
time, and it could not be ascertained
at noon how many survived.
On December 28th last, an explosion
occurred at this mine, which up to
that time, had been regarded as a
model one. On that occasion the
cause could not be ascertained and
the death list reached fifty. The last
body connected with that explosion
was brought. to the surface only last
Friday, at which date the mine in
specxor declared the mine safe again
The majority of the miners engaged
to resume work were all white. witl a
few foreigners and negroes as labc-.
ers.
! It was stated the mine was exam
ined early today before the new shift
went to work and reported TO be Der
fectIy safe Despite this shortly after
work was begun an explosion occurT
ed which will have death list posi-
bly, exceeding that Of December

WIN OUT

The precinct election yesterday re-
suited in the choice of the Citizens
ticket over the Democratic ticket by
large majority. While the two pre-
cincts of Roswell are normally Dem
ocratic by good majority, there are
times when party politics is thrown
to the winds and this was one OF the
times. 1t might be added that the An
zens' ticket.
The men elected yesterday were A.
J.. Welter, Democrat, over Charles
Gilbert, the choice of the Democratic
convention, for justice of the peace,
and Jim Johnson, Republican, over
Pearl Wilson, the Democratic nominee
for constable. These officers are for
the Roswell precinct, No. 1. The re-
turns by precincts, totals, ETC., are
as follows:
Voting Precinct No. 1.
Welter, 425: Gilbert, 166; Johnson,
42O; Wilson, 1877
Voting Precinct No. 2.
Welter, 206: Gilbert, 211; Johnson,
213; Wilson, 1914

Thus it will be seen that Johnson

bert was supposed to have the great

Denver, Jan. 12-John F. Shafroth
former congressman from Colorado
was today inaugurated governor. The
ceremonies we're unusually simple and
devoid of display and took place in
the Auditorium, were the Democratic
National convention was held last
year. They were witnessed by an i'm
mense crowd.
In his inaugural address Shafroth
recomm ended the enactment of dir
ect primary law fashioned after hat
in force in Wisconsin, urged that pro-
vision be made whereby the legisla
tive candidate could pledge themselv
es to abide by the result of the popular
vote for u. S. Senators, endorsed bal
lot reform which would make impos
sible the voting of straight tickets by
a single mark. He said in lividuals as
well as corporations should be pro
hibited from contributing campaign
funds and the necessary expenses
should be met by the candidates them
selves. A state tax was favored for the
guaranty of bank deposits and he al
so endorsed the iniative and referen-
dunn. A large part of his address was
devoted to the question of forest re-
serves and in this connection G pol
icy of the government was condemned

LEGISLATION AIMED AT
JAPS IN CALIFORNIA.


Sacramento, Jan. 12.-The measur-
es directed against the Japanese an |
introduced in the California legisla-
ture last week, but upon which no
action has been taken, and which ex-
cited the adverse comment Of the Jap
anese press were drafted for the as
semb1y by Grover Johnson. rhe bills
were presented by Johnson, who is
the floor leader for the Republicans
The first prohibits aliens from be-
coming members of corporations; the
second inserts the word Japanese
IN the law regarding the segregation
of Oriental school children. That stat
ute is now in force and resregates
Mongolians. but the Japanese claim
they do not come under this head, so
they are specifically mentioned The
third bill regregates "aliens whose
presence may be inimical to the
health and public morals of the com
munity" While the Japanese are not
mentioned specifically in the first and
third bills, the measures are aimed a
gainst them.

GREAT INCREASE IN VALUES
IN THE ARID REGIONS

TN he AhID hGOioNS.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Jan. 12.-It is es-
timated that the tax rolls in the coun-
ties one time included in the socalled
Great American DESERT will show
an increase for the past year of fully
twenty millions of dollars above the
natural values before the development
under so-called "Dry Farming" began
few years ago. Land experts claim
these figures will be doubled in five
years time. The effect upon the mar
kets of the world will soon be notice
able and already the stability of pric-
es is marked as result of the prac-
tica1 certainty of an unfailing grain
crop in the West-once ignored in es-
tim ating the crop conditions. The of
fee of The Trans-Missouri Dry Farm
ing Congress has begun to investigate
the commercial side of the great prob
lem and it is probable that some start
ling figures will result when the re-
ports are made to the Third Congress
which convenes in this city next Feb
ruary.
