Only a short part of the way will
the oil have to be raised until the
range is capped and then 1t is believed
that gravity will perform the rest of
the task. The plans are too immature
as yet to announce just when work

line but once started ii will be rushed
to completion. At the terminus of
the pipe line at Fruita large reser-
voirs will be built and the cost of
transportation of the oil will be so
decreased by the construction of the
line that it will pay for itself many
times over is the expectations of the
promoters as to the future of the
new oil country is realized.
1t was rumored in the city that the
Standard Oil company was behind the
organizing company but the promot-
ers refused to either deny or confirm
the report.
The project should mean much to
the city of Fruita as well as to Range

penditures for the construction of the
reservoirs and the benefit which will
be derived front he employment of
labor from that city in the building

backing to guarantee its successful

ABANDoNs MILITANT REFORM
Special to The sentine,1


st. Louis. Mo-. May 2S.-Announc-
ing his abandonment of the role of
militant reformer. assumed in his
book "A Mind That Found Itself"
published in March, 1908, Mr. Cliff
ford w. Beers, the author, promul-
gated his new program in relation
to the treatment of insanity in an
address before the National Confer
ence of Charities and Correction here
this morning. Mr.. Beers was himself
for some time a patient in several
hospitals for the insane. and, after
his recovery, wrote the book which
created considerable stir throughout
the country. He told of many abuses
which patients in such institutions
are obliged to suffer and proposed
rigid legislative inquiries into the
conduct and management of institu-
tions for the insane. He has more
recently, however. reconsidered that
position, and now proposes a system
of social service in the institutions
themselves and a campaign of educa-
tion for the general public, to the END
that insanity may be treated as a
disease. that the stigma of having
suffered from 1t may be removed
from the popular mind. and thai
social workers may be trained to deal
with incipient cases of insanity,
threatened nervous breakdowns, etc.
much as incipient consumptives are
now taught how to get well by right
living. He urged the establishment
of state societies for mental hygiene
similar to the one in Connecticut Of
: which he is the executive secretary.

MORAL. SIrICIDE.

B. W. Hooper having been nominated by the
Republican convention for Governor of Tennes-
see, the news is that the Independent or Prohi-
bition Democrats will give him their support IN
the election, ignoring the offer Of Governor Pat
terson to submit the question of his nomination
TO Democratic primary.
II is true that conditions III Tennessee are
unique for evaporation. Patterson is deter
mined to rule or ruin. He has the Democratic
machine and control of election machinery. The
refusal of the Independents to permit themselves
to be duped by so obvious a ruse as primary is
in one sense justified,
In another sense it is not justified, for the
reason that the alternative course cannot possibly
result in anything except the speedy defeat of the
very principal by which the Independents are
actuated There is no hope of moral government
through Southern Republcanism. Its ambition
has been fixed by years of office-hunger. Its one
motive is political success, and for the carrying
of that purpose it is ready at any moment to be
either fish, flesh or fowl. 1t will pray or curse
as the contingencies of politics make the one or
the other temporarily advisable. If proof of this
assertion were needed, it would be found in the
contrasting attitude of Tennessee and North Car
Dina Republicans, the ones declaring for Prohibi-
toi, inc otjicFs dtctafiuS 1oT liquor upon pldt-
form enabling them to shout for liquor in ''wet"
territory and still denounce it in dry" communi-
ties. Yet North Carolina and Tennessee Repub-
.licans are of identical type. To place them in
power in either State is simply to pave the way
for the return of the liquor traffic, the return of
the negro into politics the rerngression of State
government TO Reconstruction conditions. What
ever may be the declarations of the party once
control it will .be controlled by its personnel and
its personnel is of character which can be most
readily controlled by whiskey In the South at
least, temperance and Republicanism and
have always been inconsistent terms.
Tennessee stands at present the edge of a
political chasm. Patterson dug the pit, it is true,
and created the condition. Yet even Patterson
is preferable to Republican control of the State
government. IT, in the effort to rid itself of such
an incubus, it permits itself to be betrayed into
Republcanism, it viii most certainly defeat the
very ends of morality and reform for which its
better element has labored.

KEEP THE1C. & O. AT HOME.

The intimation that the officials of the road
are contemplating the removal of chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad general headquarters from
Richmond to Cincinnati should stir every in
dustrial and commercial force in the city to inn
mediate protest The Chesapeake and Ohio Is
distinctively Virginia institution. The system
has done much for the State, the State has done
less for it. Its home has been in this city for

roads which are most essential to their growth

largements which may be necessary could and
should be made here, as we'll as elsewhere Now
that this long-rumored change of policy seems
to have become imminent it is time for the

Richmond manufacturer and business man, to

THE HOUDON REPLICA.

The replica of the Houdon statue OF Washing
ton was presented in the court of the French
King in the Republic of France on Thursday as
the gift of the State of Virginia, birthplace OF
the principle of governmental freedom as popu
lar right instead of dynastic concession.
The event means much to Virginia and much
to France Although the graceful action of
State, it points the sympathy of Nation, for
it was Virginia that made the idea of a Re
public concrete issue; and it was France
whose sympathy and active aid under Lafayette
made possible in the last analysis the success of
the brave struggle for representative govern
ment. 1t was, also owing to the American ex-
ample that the French people gained the I'M
pulse after centuries of existence as an Empire
to put to the touch the principle of sovereignty
in the sovereign people.
Speaking recently at Plymouth, President
Taft undertook to say that the Pilgrims germi-
mated the Revolution. The reproduction of the
stately work of genius of a great French sculp-
tor now takes its place in Versailles as refutation
to the two greatest Republics, and hence to the
world at large, of this misconception of the real
birthplace of the inspiration Of universal liberty.

gave evidence against him, convicted and dis
missed him from the force. IT is not every mayor
