The smokey season is almost here,
for the leaves are falling aud people
will burn them. The effort results in
more smoke than fire, because green
and damp leaves will not burn rapid
ly. But they make famous moke.
Why not leave them lie in heap un-
til well dried, and then burn them,
say from II to 2 o'clock, so as to avoid
the nuisance OF the smoke hanging
about the town evenings. penetrating
our residences and making everybody
very uncomfortable throughout the
night

GREAT REPUBLICAN SUCCESS IN
STATE.
Next Assembly Will Stand forty.one Re-.
publicans to Nineteen Democrats. and
Senate Will Stand Fifteen Repub.
licans.

Gaming TWO senators and with an
average majority in the twenty-one
counties of the state of $1,000 on the
assembly vote, the Republican party
has again won notable victory in
New Jersey, electing senate, which
will have Is Republicans to Demo-
Gratis and house of assembly which
will have IL Republicans to 10 Demo-
Gratis, and making majority for the
Republicans of 81 on joint ballot. This
assures the reelection of State Treas
urer Daniel S. Voorhees, in the joint
meeting, the only important meeting
of the whole legislature for joint cleo
tons this coming session.
The fight against Gebhardt in Hun
terdon county depended for its success
on the doubtful support the Democrat
ie leaders of that county would give
Gebhardt. The senator had been out
of touch with those leaders and it is
said he made concessions at the last
moment which insured their support.
Hunterdon County has once more
gone Democratic. William c. Geb-
hardt their candidate for Senator was
reelected by about 1900 majority. John
J. Matthews for Assembly won by a
small majority as did George Bloom,
for surrogate and Peter S. Niper, the
candidate for coroner. The Democrat
ic freeholders were also reelected.
Lambertville has Democratic mayor
by Il majority of67 Newton f. Slack,
Republican, was elected to Common
Council in the Second Ward and
George NJ. Shamalia, Republican, re-
ceived large majority in the same
ward for the Board of Education. The
Excise Board has Republican major
ity also, John G. Micke, Judson Rob-
inson and Scott Thorne winning out.
The two Democrats on the board are
John Casey and Joseph +. Taylor.

The cotton will produce on an
average of three-quarters Of a
bale of cotton to the acre, or
about $4,000 bales per year. At
an average selling price of $50
per bale, the income from the
farm alone will be 100000 per
year. But not a bale of this cot
ton or a single seed will be put
on the market.
The cotton mill as now planned
will turn into calicoes, sheetings
and other finished products every
lock of cotton picked from the
bolls.
An oil mill is now going up
which will convert the seed into
meal, hulls and oil. The meal
and hulls will be used to fatten
the cattle for the packing house,
and the oil will be used in making
by-products.
The government of this vast
estate offers an interest lesson in
SOCIOLOGY. Under the direct COM
mand of the manager is a popu-
lation of over 1000, including
four good-sized towns-Sinton
with a population of 1900; Greg
lory, 500; Taft, 500, and Portland,
400. In the three latter towns
EVERY house and every lot is own
ed by the ranch manager. The
inmates are all employees.

1000. All these will be utilized by
the Taft packing house. There are
also 10000 sheep and 10000
hogs.
An electric light plant to supply
lights for Sinton, Gregory, Taft.
Portland, the four villages on the
vast estate and for the ranch in
general, will be operated in con-
nection with the ice house and 10 >
packing house.
In order tn utilize every foot of
land on tie ranch thousands of
Mexicans are now busy clearing off
the mesquite and cactus, and by
next year the biggest cotton patch
in the world will be planted. This
will be 25 miles long, and will ex-
tend along both sides of the San
Antonio & Arkansas Pass railroad
the width of one mile.
The most modern methods pre-
vail everywhere. The sod is be-
ing turned by 59-horsepower
traction engine, which turns rs
feet at swath, and which will
plow 25 acres per day. An ex-
pertinent farm will be established,
under the direction of experts, and
the farming will be conducted
|along the most scientific lines.
When completed the farm will
contain 10000 acres in cotton
and 6000 acres in other crops.

Reasonable, the sanitary condi-
tionS excellent. The corporation
at Us own expense provides ex-
eellent schools, builds roads,
streets and churches, and even

The Mexican laborers are
housed comfortably in a different
section of the towns and are also
provided with SCHOOLS and
churches.
Law is practically administered
by John f. Green, the superin-
tendent, who settles all disputes.
He designates justices, constables
and the 20 deputy sheriffs. All
are employees of the company.
Liquor can be secured in the
larger towns, but intoxication
and crime are almost unknown.
Lawlessness means exile, for I'M
desirables are ordered to move
on, and every door is closed to
them at the superintendent COM

The company operates it's own
stores and commissaries, and
good supplies can be bought as
cheaply there as at any other
point in Texas. Only the best
grades are kept in stock.
Chas. p. Taft's interest in these
ranches came by his marriage to
the only daughter of Dave Sinton,
a pioneer ranchman of Texas, who
acquired the land when it could
be had for only q few cents an
acre.

The gigantic ranch is to be de-

Moreover, not an acre will be
sold to colonists. All will be kept

Chas. P. Taft's Texas Ranch
Gets Panama Beef Contract
BROTHER WILL
SUPPLY 400 CATTLE A DAY
TO CANAL WORKERS FROM
HIS UNIQUE FARM, WHICH
INCLUDES PACKING HOUSES
AND STORAGE PLANTS.

TAFT, Tex, Sept. 25.-Is Chas.
p. Taft going to supply the beef
for all the employees ON the Pana-
canal?
That he is, is the talk Of the
whole Southwest.
Contracts with the government
calling for between 800 and 400
beef cattle a day. to be delivered
at Panama, is the Texas version
of Charley Taft's luck"
But the way that President
Taft's brother is going to carry
out that contract is equally sensa-
tional with the fact that he got
it. Brother Charley, with nearly
half million acres of rich Texas
land is going ranching in a way
that has never been done any
where.
He is going to DO all his packing
right on the ranch. No sending to
Chicago or Omaha packing houses
no big freight bills to eat into
profits. Charley Taft is going to
do all the work himself right on
the ground.
They won't talk much on the
big Taft ranch about their plans
for feeding the Panama canal, but
they're rushing work night and
day on a half-million dollars pack
ing house. When completed 1t will
be in a position to throw down the
gage of defiance to the present
beef trust.
Chas. p. Taft, packed-that is
the sign of the future.
And that isn't all. He's going
to pack other farm products there.
He's going to have a cotton mill
and turn the cotton from 10000
acres into cloth right ON the
ground. Also he'll have electric
light plants, storage houses and
factories for using all the by-pro-
ducts.
No ranching like this has ever
been seen in the state of Texas,
and the whole Southwest is aghast

will be presented at the November meet
ing of the Norfolk city council for neces-
sary permits to bring into Norfolk a pro-
posed tunnel under the Elizabeth river
from Primers Point, the present terminus
of several railway systems entering this

The plan is TO have the Seaboard Air
Line. Southern railway, Atlantic Coast
Line and Belt Line railways enter Nor
folk direct by means of this tunnel and
connect with the present tracks of the
Norfolk and Southern railway leading to
Cape Henry, where great breakwater
will be built and piers constructed for
foreign trade, thus eliminating time lost
by steamers in coming from the Virginia
capes into Norfolk and going on to Bal
timore. The New York. Philadelphia and
Norfolk railway, owned by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad. would connect at Cape
Henry by a short ferry from Cape
Charles. Va.
