FARMERS RETURN
TO THE STATES
Fifteen Thousand Americans Grow Tired
of Canadian NOrthw est and the Draw
backs and Inconvenience Met
With Up in That ForIorn
Hone.

According to Washington press dis
patch of the 18th inst. the tide of en-
igration of home seekers to Canada,
which has been the subject of great
concern to the administrators of the
public domain for the last few years,
has turned, is the opinion of officials of
tn e reclamation service. Thousands
have returned and great many more
are expected back soon.
Clarence j. Blanchard, statistician of
the reclamation service, reports that he
has interviewed a great number of set
tiers in Montana who have tried the
Canadian experiment, but were glad to
return home. They stated that practi-
cally every American farmer in the
neighborhood of Alberta, where the
Canadian government maintains it's
irrigation project, was anxious to get
back if he could sell his holdings.
During the last nine months, it was
said at the reclamation service yester-
day, $1,000 settlers have returned to
the States from Canada, and the pros
pect for general backward move
ment was bright.

edneSS,

Hoping that tn e Jeffries-Johnson
prize-fght will be the last in the United
States and that exhibitions of the NOV
ing pictures of the contest will be stop
ped is the sense of signed editorial by
Theodore Roosevelt in The Outlook for
July 16. The former president says:
Il have always been fond of boxing
and have always believed init as vigor-
GUS, manly pastime-one of those pas
times which have distinct moral AID
physical value, because they encourage
such essential virtues as courage, hardi.
hood, endurance and self-control. Until
within few years I used to box a good
deal myself, and when I was young
several times took part in contests of a
public or semipubic nature-generally,
I am bound to say, with ill success. l
think boxing is sport which should be
encouraged among the boys and young
men generally. I have been glad to
help it so far as could in the Army
and Navy, where. believe, it has been
an excellent thing for the enlisted
men. When / was police commissioner
l was much struck by statement made
to me by:Jacob Riis to the effect that
the establishment of boxing clubs in
many Of the poorer districts had result
ed in good, ir rather unexpected ways;
that is, it had not only given the vigor-
GUS young fellows who otherwise would
join ''gangs," a legitimate outlet for
their activities, but had also markedly
reduced the number of affrays in which
the knife was used. The spirit pro-
duced by the boxing had told against
knife-fghting and distinctly discouraged
unfair play.
Therefore, from every standpoint, l
believe in the encouragement of boxing
as sport. Moreover, boxing asa pro-
fession has its good side also. Among
the men whose friendship and regard l
have really valued could name num-
ber professional boxers, including sew
eral ring champions. The men to whom
Isrefer found square, decent men who
showed themselves good citizens when
their good citizenship was tested. l

this state, at the time I was police
commissioner, resulted in the enact

two more of them. He brought the
pelts to Carlsbad and told the story of
the guano find, which was hailed with
delight by the farmers, as it is the fine
est fertilizer to be found.
Stewart and his companions had heard
the story of the boy, and while they
were in the locality they thought they
would explore the cave and make an
estimate of the amount of guano that
it contained. They made their way
some distance into the interior, and at
length came to a wide rock chamber.
The light poured through hole in the
roof and showed clearly the surround
ings. In the center of the chamber
were four skeletons. A closer inspec-
ton showed that three of them were
those of human beings and that the
fourth was that Of big bear. Among
the bones were two rusty knives, pis-
tol and some metal buttons. The cloth
ing had rotted away, and it was evident
that the tragedy had been enacted many
years before. Judging from the bones,
all the men must have been big fellows,
strong and full Of vigor, for the teeth
were all yet good, but the tongues that
could once have told the grewsome tale
were returned to dust, and only the
hollow sockets of the eyes in three
grinning skeletons looked up at the dis
coverers. But the surroundings told
the story, and it needed not the recital
of words to tell the sheriff and his men
what had happened. They saw it as if
they had been on the spot when it was
enacted.
Old Bruin sat at the door of the cave,
which was his castle, back in the days
when no white man had previously dis
turbed the wild stiffness. Down from
the Valley of the Pecos came three
prospectors after the gold that the In
dians told the Spaniards was there.
They were big, husky fellows, probably
part of a body of Spaniards that
afterward made it's way to California.
When near the entrance to the cave
they saw the fierce, old bear, but they
were brave fellows and they thoughtit
would be an easy matter to kill him,
feast upon his carcass. and take up
their abode for the night in his retreat.
With deep growls the bear warned them
off, but they pressed onward. The
bear retreated into the cave2&and the
men followed. Two of them We're arm
ed with heavy knives and the third had
huge pepper-box pistol. At length
they cornered the bear in the big
chamber and he resolved to make his
stand. A bullet landed in his hide, but

Three SKELETONS
FOUND in CAVE
Sheriff and Deputies Hunting Horse Thief
Made GhastIy Find, Which Reveals
DeathIy Struggle Between Pros
spectors and Bear in
Dismal Cave.
(St. Louis Globe-Democrat.)

1t was brave battle that these three
men and this old bear fought, and every
one of them died hero. No admlrine
multitude cheered them on and urged
their tagging energies. Each fought
till the breath left him, and the rugged
old master of the castle fell across the
corpses of the invaders.
In all his travels through darkest At
rica Theodore Roosevelt saw no such
struggle as this. 1t is a story without
words that was told Cicero Stewart,
sheriff of Eddy county, New Mexico,
and his two deputies, Carl Gordon and
Henry Boyd, when they stumbled upon
the four skeletons of few days ago in
cave in the Businesses of the Guade-
loupe mountains while hunting for a
horse thief.
The sheriff and his men had informa-
tion that the horse thief, who is known
as "Calico' Ryan, was in hiding in the
mountains, and they saddled their horses
at Carlsbad and road so miles to the To-
cality that is said to conceal the man
for whom they were searching. But
there was not the slightest trace of
"Calico" Ryan. Sheriff Stewart had
riden long way and he did not want
to leave until he was thoroughly salts
fled that his quarry was not there. So
he and his men, with their revolvers in
easy reach and the belt with their bowie
knives loosened, cautiously explored
the sage brush and the little caverns
with which the locality abounds.
At length they came upon the bat
guano cave that was discovered short
time ago by Jesse Plowman, 12.year-
old boy. The latter had followed bear
tracks to the entrance of the cave and,
being afraid to enter, he placed his hat
on pole at the entrance and sat behind
boulder to await developments. In a
short time a big bear poked his head
out the entrance and angrily made for
the cap. The bear tore the cap off the
pole and shook it to, pieces. Jesse
waited till he had good chance and
then he let 60 bullet from his rifle and
the huge animal fell dead in his tracks.
Then the boy smoked the others out by
making fire in the entrance and shot

about 20 per cent of the district, the
supposed areas of coal lands aggregate
approximately $4,000 square miles. In
these coal fields the areas believed to
be underlain by workable beds of coal
are about 1900 square miles, in more
than three-fourths of which only the
lower grade coal appears. Thus the
known coal lands of Alaska, which are
believed to be affected by your order of
withdrawal, aggregate ONE 10000
acres"

" LAND WITHDRAWN
Secretary BaIIinger Reports to President
Taft that He Has Withdrawn 7l,5l8,-
5SS Acres, Including Several
Million Acres Coal
Lands.

On the 18th inst. President Taft
withdrew several million acres of coal
lands in different states of the West,
bringing the total acreage Of coal lands
withdrawn by him up to the enormous
total of II, ,5l8.588
Something like half of this amount
are new withdrawals. The work is now
complete and is epitomized in the fol-
lowing letter to the president from
Secretary Ballinger:
''The orders for the withdrawal of
coal lands, which are transmitted here
with, complete the series which have
been prepared in accordance with your
instructions. These orders confirm and
continue all existing coal lands with
drawals and add materially thereto. The
areas covered are as follows:
"Arizona, 161, ,28O acres.
"Colorado, 6,l91, ,161 acres.
Montana, 20, 0,2Os,865.
"New Mexico, 2,944, ,279 acres.
"North Dakota, II, 1928, 1872 acres.
"Oregon, 1872, ,562 acres.
'South Dakota, 2,870,287 acres.
"Utah, 5,8l4, ,287 acres.
"Washington, 13, 099, 718 acres.
''The total of coal lands now with
drawn in the United States is therefore
II, ,5l8, 588 acres.
"All the land, however, is open to ag-
ricultural entry with limited surface
patent under the terms of the order of
withdrawal and in accordance with the
recent enactment providing for agricul-
tural surface entries on withdrawn or
classified coal lands.
''Already 10, ,21O, 082 acres of coal land,
in part included in the earlier with
drawal, have been classified and ap-
praised by the geological survey, prior
to July l, 1910, and restored to appro-
pirate entry. The total appraised val
uation of these coal lands is $449, 876,-
2O9, compared with $l7O, 063, 766,
which would be the minimum price that
was formerly ordered in the disposal
of government coal lands.

ment of law permitting contests be-
tween professional boxers under condi-
tions which were meant to safeguard
the sport against brutality and the
other evils which have everywhere re-
suited sooner or later in the suppression
of the prize ring. l saw several of
these public boxing contests, in which
the intent of the law was carried out in
good faith.
Nevertheless, even under this law,
abuses crept in, and, finally, one or two
fights occurred where the surrounding
circumstances were so scandalous that
when I was governor was obliged to
advocate, and finally to secure, the re-
peal of the law under which the con-
tests took place, feeling convinced, to-
gether with the great majority of the
citizens of the state, that under it al
most all that made prize-fghting OBJ
jectionable and demoralizing had grad
ually been revived.
"Now this was my experience, the
experience Of man who, so far from
being prejudiced against boxing, was
and is a warm advocate of it, and who,
at the outset, had not the slightest pre-
judice against professional box ing
that is, boxing for purses of money
and who has numbered among hi s
friends many men who were profession
ais and had fought for money prizes. l
am sure that what has happened in New
York will happen in the nation at large,
and that prize-fighting will be, as it
ought to be, stopped in every state of
the Union. Since it was stopped in
New York the conditions surrounding
the ring have grown worse, and not bet
ter. The money prizes fought for are
enormous, and are potent source of
decentralization in themselves, whi le
they are often so arranged as either to
be premium on crookedness or else to
reward nearly as amply the man who
falls as the man who succeeds. The
betting and gambling upon the result
are thoroughly unhealthy, and the NOV
ing-picture part of the proceedings has
introduced a new method of money-get-
ting and of Decentralization. In addition,
the last contest provoked very unfor-
tunate display of race antagonism. l
sincerely trust that public sentiment
will be so aroused, ana will make itself
felt so effectively as to guarantee that
this is the last prize-fght to take place
IN the United States; and it would be
an admirable thing i f some method
could be devised to stop the exhibition
Of the moving pictures taken thereof.
