ELEVEN RAILROADS HAVE
STARTED TREE PLAN1E

Chicago, Jan. 3O.-According tod
Chicago Daily News, one of the gid
railroads to the Pacific coast is pera|
ing plans for forest of eucalyF
trees in San Diego county, Califonl|
from which to obtain a steady suvpll
of crossties A ranch of 5000 ari
has been purchased for this purpeI
and as start 600 acres will be plantal|
It is estimated that in 10 years y
copmany will be able to harvest frd1
six to eight ties to a tree and keep 4
the harvest thereafter continually. 4
present the system uses about th1
million ties annually. In Is years
company thinks it will be able to 4
tain from it's forest seven million u
annually.
The growing scarcity of timber sa1
able for ties, with a resultant incre1
in their cost, has led eleven roads
start forests. Ten roads in the "a

REPUBLIC RE-ESTABLISHED
BY INAUGURATION OF GOMEZ

Havana, Jan. 3O.-Jose Miguel Go
mez has been inaugurated first presi,
dent of the, re-established Cuban repub'
lie, and the American control OF IN
sular affairs came to an end with the
departure of former Gov. Magoon and
all thesprovincial officials. The Amer,
leans left the harbor on warships and
transports Immediately after formal
turing over Of the government to the
native officials. An immense crowd
stood with bare heads in the Plaza de
Armas, facing the palace, when Presl-
dent Gomez stepped out on the palace
balcony and took the oath OF office
from the chief justice of the supreme
court The president was surrounded
by the dignitaries of the state and the
members of the diploamtic corps and
the special ENJOYS in brilliant uni
forms.
The affairs of the island have been
administered by American officials
for more than two years as ar esult OF
the revolution against former Presi-
dent Palma in 1906.
January % will hereafter take rank
with May 20 as national holiday in
Cuba, for it was on the latter day in
1902 that the island was first transfer
red to the Cuban people by the United
States after a period of rehabilitation
following the Spanish war.
Gen. Gomez plotted against former
President Palma and was imprisoned
by him for one month and released
only when Secretary of War Taft came
to the island to settle the revolution
of 1906.
The Cubans always held it against
former President Palma that he was
the choice of the American govern
ment. No such complaints can be
made in he case of President Gomez,
for the Americans studiously avoided
anything savorving of suggestion as
to the candidates or the platforms in
the call for the last campaign.
