LARGE SUM TO PUT NAVY IN

OpcCidl W Inc WOEIQ
Washington, D. c., Jan. s.-The
authorization Of an entire squadron
of four monster battleships was urged
on the house committee on naval az
tairs when Secretary Newberry ap-
peared before that committee yester-
day. Besides the battleships, he
said, the navy should be provided
with four new cruisers, ten destroy
ers. four submarines, three GOLFERS,
one repair ship, one ammunition ship
and two mine-laying ships.
Secretary Newberry told the COM
mittee that the new battleships
should be of the heavy single caliber
all-big-gun type, and added that it
was desirable that a squadron of 8
of these ships be completed as soon
as possible.
About s75,0OO,0O0 would be re.
quired to carry out the secretary.
program for increasing the navy, as
he outlined It to the house commit
tee on naval affairs.

SAYS SUN AND MOON CAUSE
EARTHQUAKES.

When the sun and the moon eye
in certain positions, the astronomical
influences have a tendency to change
the earth's spherical shape into that
of an ellipse. OF course, the earth
does not really become an ellipse,
but If 1t were a liquid body It would
take IN elliptjoal Soe1.
AS it is the tendency to change
from sphere to an ellipse manifesrs
itself In a condition of stress.
This condition Of stress in the
earth's surface brings about wild
ening and contracting Of the assures
in the crust Of the earth. This con-
tracing of the assures results in vol
canic activity.
In other words, when the sun ana
the moon are relatively so placed to
each other that astronomical condi-
tons are favorable, then the earth
tends to become an elliptical body,
the assures contract and the erup-
tons of some great volcano takes
place.
We can tell to a day the date when
such an eruption is to occur, provid-
ed the local conditions are in accord
ance with the astronomical influences.

NORTHERN r SOUTHERN R.. r.
SHOWS ACTIVITY.-ASKS FOR
STREET FRANCHISES.

Activity in railroad circles is begin
ming to assume proportions and mat
tiers are shaping themselves so that
the Big Bend and Douglas county
will be in shape to bid defiance to
the Great Northern which has so long
sat upon the lid of transportation
and gave it to us in small and large
doses as they saw fit, says the Doug
las County Press.
Last week the incorporation Of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & Seattle Co. on
the Sound and the talk of steamship
lines for the Milwaukee people, has
stimulated actions all along the line
for freight, and the Milwaukee people
are said to have cast longing eyes on
the Wateryille country as one of the
rich: spots into which to extend q
feeder. In fact, they think the Wa
terville country Is rich, unsxplored
field, and will make an effort--and
that soon--to get here. ,.. -
They are fortifying themselves a,
every point and are making them
selves solid with the. people. They
propose, putting In. experiment sta
lions: along their line from Dakota,
west, i've of which will be in this
state. They have lately acquired the
Hanford property at. Priest. Rapids
The activity gof the Northern G.
Southern Is stirring up matters. The
city council of Waterville will be
asked to grant them a franchise and
right of way for terminal grounds,
etc. The papers are said to be in the
hands of their attorney with orders
to prepare them. The city council Is
said to be in a receptive mood to re-
ceive the Northern q. Southern propo-s
sition.
The peoples ire has become arous-
ed at the insolent way in which this
county has been treated by the Great
Northern. and now propose to get In
another road. 1t Is understood that
the Milwaukee people are looking
with favor on the move.

This was William Henry Harrison
Hoover. sheriff Of the county. known
as "Slim" Hoover by the humorous
propensity of men on the range to give
nicknames on the principle Of contra
ries, for he was the latest man In
Pinal county. Slim was one of those
feshy men who have nerves Of steel
and muscles Of iron. A round. boyish
| face. twinkling blue eyes and flaming
red hair gave him an appearance Of in
nocence entirely at variance with his
personality. A vein Of sentiment made
him all tbe more lovable His asso-
ciates rancnees. men Of the plains,
,oldiers and the owners and frequent
lrs Of the frontier barroom-respected

Hes square as Slim was the best
recommendation ever given Of man
In that region.
Pinal county settlers had made Slim
sheriff term after term because he was
the one citizen supremely fitted for
the place. He had ridden the range
and busted" bronchOs before election.
After 1t he hunted wrongdoers. Right
was right and wrong was wrong to
him. There was no shading in the
meaning. All he asked Of men was to
ride fast. shoot straight and deal
squarely in any game. He admitted
that murder. horse stealing and brand

jects for the unwritten law. But in
his code this law meant death only
after fair trial. with neighbors for a
Jury. He was not scrupulous that
Judge should be present His duties
were ended when he brought in his
prisoner.
Hoover's rule had been marked by
the tanning Of bad men In Florence
and truce declared in the guerrilla
warfare between the cattlemen and
the sheepmen on the range.
Sims seemingly superfiuous flesh
was really Of great advantage to him.
1t served as mask for his remarka-
