The Dismissal of Pinchot.

Washington has experienced the greatest excitement of cec ade in the last few days, which was occasioned by the dismissal of Clifford Pinchot, the chiet for ester of the government. Mr. Plnchot is one of the purest patriots that ever lived, and he has demonstrated that he is one of the wisest statesmen of our age. IL was he who largely ori < mated the idea oi conser wing our natural resources, which were so- ing to waste. It was at his sug- gestion that MT. Roosevelt called the Conservation Congress, over which he presided, and wblch was addressed by himself, by J. J. Hill of the Great Northern railroad, Andrew Carnegie, w. ]. Bryan and cthe Tia C,n- gress marked new era ii our na- tioual life, and m the ca ing Of the Congress, MT. Roosevels freely gave the credit tor the same to the great forester, MT. Clifford Pinchot. MT. Pinchot has upenl y charged Seere sary Ballinger in hts administra ton of the Iaterior Department with acting as an enemy of conservation, and has made specifi. ond general charges against the Secretary of the In- teriOr.
 MT. Taft considered ,his action, on the part ot Mir. Piuchot. as such an act of insu bordination as to uecessiiste the 6ismlssal oi Pinchot, which was done.
 It is freely predieted on all sides that this act of President Taft will result in making of the dep ,sed man a formidable power in the future.
 Mir. Pinchot is man of wealth and by his valua ble service to the government, he has demonstrated the incorrupiibility of his charsc- ter, the honesty of his motive Ii e purity f his patriotism and tbe 2 eatuess of hls statesm n ship. It is further freely pre- dicted o all des that he wou make as great run as Presideui Roosevelt made in 1904, and tha he would carry a large block ol the Southern states, which would compense for number of th big states in the middle west which will very likely be lost t the K R.pubIican party in the mex election on account of the injus, ice and trickery of the last tarii bill.

ASK MARTIAL LAW
 FOR HOT SPRINGS
Delegation From The Reform" Ele- ment in the Valley of Varors Makes Request of the Gov

Little Rock. Jan 20. Carving the T. signation of Dr. J. r. Ram 1olph, coror CT of Garland county, aud urging that they be allowed to name his successor whom they would select from the "reform'' element of Hot Springs and wbo would be expected 10 stop gam bling in Ho, Springs, a delega- ton of Hot Springs citizens, headed by w. T. Amis and Judg e J. E. Wood, appeared before Gov ernor Donag ghey yesterday. The governor, however. declined to give the deleg gation the right to name the successor to Coroner Randolph, 'tating that he would instead call SD, cial election for the purpose ot eiectIng new coroner, and would appoint as coroner until the time ot the cleo. ton the man who received the next highest number of votes to Coroner Randolph when the latte r was elected. This proposition the delegation turned down and last night forwarded the resigna- tiou back to Dr. Randolph,
 They Wanted Martial Law.
 Governor Douaghey stated last night that the delegation rs- quested him TO call out part of the Arkansas National Guard and establish martial law at Hot Springs. He stated that he re- piled he did not think the situa- tion there warranted such action.
 That another crisis in the long drawu-out fignt between the ''wide open" and reform" ele- meuts of Hot Springs is about due was the opinion expressed last nig ht by Rev. w. T. Amis, who declared that the members of tbe reform" element are un- able to get action on the part of the sheriff, constables, mayor or a single policeman in the move ment to stop gambling. By con trolling the coroner the reform people expected 10 be able to suc- cessfully combat the gambling The esent corouer.it was stated by MT. Amis, does not care to take up the fight, owing to the serious illness of his wife.

Railroad Men Leave Town.

With the discovery of the Rob- ertsor letter, 1t became known that other persons had received similar letters. John Berts, a Midland Valley railroad man, and William Reynolds, another Mid laud Valley enploye, received letters last week. They were al- so signed "The Blackhand."
 The letters ordered the men to leave the neighborhood within AS hours. Berts packed up and moved his family at once. Key holds also lift, but his famil v still resides here. The Robertson re staurant is located along a square that has been visited by numerous mysterious fires of late. AS a matter of fact, several fires have occurred here in late years that bore all the marks of having been caused by iucendiaries. Mer- chants believe the persons respon- sponsible for the letter sent tc Robertson contemplate burning bis place and they fear the firs may reach other locations.

 The time given Robertson to leave the city expired at 8 o'clock this morning. Robertson secured two friends to remain with him Saturday and Sunday night. The men are heavily armed and will remain with Robertson, who re- sides with his widowed mother. He IS a single man and has lived in Hartford for nearly 30 years.

OnS of the measurs that he is vigor- rusly urging IS the enactment of a law for further, more thorough and ffe-tive federal control over rdiir, ads.
 The way our railroads have been built in the past nas Iro- duced a great and lasting evIl. For instance, when road IS to be built that will cost $50, COG, 900, a co npany is srganized and stock is ,ssu to that amount and sold. Out of this $50, 900, 900 received from the sale of stock, about $45,- 900, GOO goes into the pockets of tne rJmoters, which IS nothing mor nos less than grating.
 Then the board of direc' ors has to issue bonds for that $45 : 010, GOO in ort CT to raise money with when to build the road. When the TO d Is completed, it must necessarily earn enough money to pay dividends on this $50, ,O00, 900.
 In order to do this, the railroad has to charge double for the pas senger and freight traffic, where as, ii the road had been built honestly, il would only have to pay dividends ou the stock and coulJ, of course, transport cheap ly. IL is the iniquitous origin Of the railroads of this country that has caused the people to take such violent action against them, and for this antagonism the railroads have no one to blame but them selves.
 The state of Texas has devel- oped the b.st railroad system of laws of auy state in the Union When railroad is to be built ID Texas, the promoters must sub init their plans to the railroad commission of that state, who will not permit them to issue any larger amount of stock or bonds than is necessary to build the railroad, and when the stock Is suld, the proceeds of the sale must be account. d for to erail road commi sioners.
 President Taft wants C,ngr, ss to regulate the issuance of all stocks and bonds by railroads which cross state lines, and this will inclu le, of C urse. every rail road oi any importance in the countIy..
