Where is Bryan NowP

had gone over to the Prohibition
party. And it did seem to worry
him a bit. We are inclined to
think that many in the Demo-
cratic party would be glad if the
silver knight would see fit to
leave the Democratic party for
ever and a day.
And yet W. ]. Bryan is one OF
the cleanest and ablest politicians
in the country. There is moth
ing the matter with him save
that he never can be elected pre-
sident of the United States.
Worse men have been elected,
and will be again, doubtless, but
to Bryan the White House is i'm
possible.
Why so? There are two OBJ
vious reasons; to-wit: First ne
has been a candidate three diff
ferent times, and each time was
badly defeated; and, secondly
there is a general opinion that
he is not the right sort of man to
run the government. He lacks
stability. Every time ne runs
for the presidency he has a new
paramount issue. Our friend had
this in mind, probably. when ne
said, Bryan has gone over to
the Prohibition party"
Is it so? Has Bryan joined the
Prohibition party? There is no
evidence of it. He is still a DEM
ocrat and trying to induce that
party in his own state to adopt
the county local option principle
This may be the only founda-
ton for the assertion that ne had
gone over to the Prohibition par
ty. That he favors the county
local option principle is true, but
other Democrats have done like
wise, as, for instance, the late
Governor Pattison of this state
It is also true that Bryan endea-
vored to persuade his Democratic
brethren in Nebraska to adopt
the county local option principle,
but many other Democrats were
in accord with him on that ques-
ton.
Another fact in the case may
have some influence in the form
ing of mems opinion about Bryan
is going over to the Prohibition
party is his we'll known total ab-
stinence> from all intOxicants.
He is not drinking man and
never has been. He is perfectly
free from the liquor habit lis 9
teetotaler, as men used to cal
abstainers.
This makes it easy for sons
folks to believe that he has turn
ed prohibitionist. Of course
there is a difference; the abstain
er prohibits on himself, the pro
hibitionist would prohibit on ev
cry one else. County local op
ton is prohibition in spots. Tn
aim is to prevent the sale of lie
uor within county lines. Mi
Bryan favors prohibition to ths
extent, but so do many othe
Democrats.

RESTS ON BEDS OF COAL.

THE whole of this stratum rests uncon-
formally over the fieXed and folded beds of
ancient coal which, in some cases, are fif-
teen feet in thickness. This entire superin-
cumbent weight overlies the States which
extend over vast areas and are upturned
to such high angle that they now

heavy pressure upon the sand beds of the
gas and oil deposits. which will become
more perseptible as time goes on. especially
at the base of the shale hills and along the
streams.
Among these coal formations I find one
greatly mineralized, having a graphite lus-
tire. This stratum averages about seven
inches in thickness. and is situated on Con-
gers Hill, at an elevation of six hundred
feet, about three miles south of Olive
Branch. Approaching it from the west is
series of terraced rock, which forms the
easterly wall of the Ashokan. Looking
westward from the first plateau, the Asho-
can dam proper is seen beneath. Then,
from the second and third plateaus, one
cannot fail to be impressed with the crushed
silence of a departed age. All around are
immense blocks of the earliest sandstone
which have been thrown from their higher
summit, a mountain that was set apart by
itself. 1t stands a silent observer of all
the later rock formations, from the Devo-
nian period TO the present time.

rock bottom would be found in the Hud-
son River at any of the points where the
engineers intended to build their aqueduct
across tho river unless they went down q
thousand feet or more Latest reports
show that no such rock has been struck
yet. His theory is that owing to a great
earth fracture or fault In past ages, ex-
tending along the line OF the Hudson or
near it, caused by volcanic action which
pushed up the volcanic rock at West Point
and the Palisades, a vast gap was left, OF
unknown depth and extent. He thinks
many of these rocks are standing on edge
or perpendicular, and that the deep chan
mel eroded by the rushing waters was
partly filled with debris of clay, sand and
powders during later subsistence of the
land surrounding 1t.
Concerning the peculiar geologic struct-
ure of the west bank of the central Hud-
son he has this to say:
Owing to the existence of the fuma-
roles of ancient volcanoes in this vicinity
we may not be surprised to find from the
chaotic state through which our rock for
nation has passed vast deposits Of iron
coal. gas and oil in the counties of Ulster,
Greene and Sullivan. This is due to the
overthrow and sinking down of the easterly
side of the Catskill Mountains and the wear
ing away of their crests after submerson.
Hence We now find outcropping lodges of
what may prove valuable coal and iron
beds. Some of this coal is prominent in
the oldest rocks while other deposits are
evidently remnants of what at one time be-
longed TO the oldest anthracite beds of
Pennsylvania. The basaltic formation back
from the river and the argillaceous shales
along its banks have doubtless been disin-
tegrated by the action of the gases and oils
that permeate them.

COAL In ULSTER
HUGE DEPOSITS SAID
TO EXIST THERE.
Biologists Theories and Their
Bearing On This City's
Water Supply.

Kingston, y. Y, Jan. l.-For nearly a
hundred years the hills of old Ulster Coun-
+. ty have been pouring forth their mineral
deposits into the various avenues and ar
teries of the industrial world Millions
upon millions OF dollars worth have been
dug out OF her soil and sent on their way
through the varied processes of manufact-
ure 10 the markets Chief among these
native products have been natural hy-
draulic cement, bluestone and brick. The
cement rock was discovered here in the
course OF the construction of the Delaware
& Hudson canal in 1875. And when this in
dustry was a the height of its activity,
some fifteen or twenty years ago, the an
nusl output of cement in the county
reached total of nearly three million
barrels.
Soon after the discovery OF these vast
deposits of cement rock in the county the
famous quarries of bluestone began to be
uncovered among the foothills of the Cat
skill Mountains and even high up on the
mountain slopes. Ever since that time
these valuable bluestone and flag uuarries
ha,k been operated extensively and the
msnunAetured product has gone forth to

and the industry one of the greatest in the
county
But now, in addition TO all this, there is
reason to believe that still more valuable
deposits exist here and are only waiting to
be uncovered and developed In fact if
the enthusiastic assertions of a practical
geologist of considerable local note can be
relied on, then these hills and elevated
plateaus contain deposits OF far greater
value than all previous discoveries in this
region put together. This man has spent
most of his life in this locality and studied
its rocks and geological formation with an
absorbing interest. For years he has
roamed through the forests and mountains
Of Ulster, Greene. Delaware and Sullivan
counties with the keen eye of mature and
intelligent investigator, ever impelled by a
feeling that the richest finds were yet to
be uncovered. His cabinet of specimens,
gathered in person, is large and full of in
terest.
He now positively asserts that a large
part OF this region, including most of the
New York water supply reservation in the
Ashokan locality. has an underlying STRAIT

One of the finest literary efforts
that has appeared in a long time

of admiration and throughout the
work a vein of philosophy is no.

tention of the thinking reader
The general run of makers of
verse are too apt to soar away nm
til the everyday things are lost
sight of but Buck has cunningly
brought out the fact that every
day things are of interest and the
diversity of his subject matter
brings home to all that there is
verse in all the things we do or
see. The work is printed on Jap
anese vellum with decked edges and
the initials are all Illuminated, thus
producing an effect which charms
the artistic sense while the mind
is satisfied with the quality of the
context.

WESTERN PACIFIC
NEEDS help YET

On September / the semi-annual
interest on the Western Pacific
first mortgage bonds. requiring
$1,25O,0O0, must be paid. To this
date this has been met by funds
set aside from sale of its bonds
and charged to construction ac-
count, but it is improbable that
can any longer be done. Owing to
the many Interruptions to traffic
experienced ever since the road was
opened to through traffic, the
company is expected to show very
little, if any net earnings to meet
the interest, says the Salt Lake
Tribune.
In this event the Denver and
Rio Grande, which guaranteed
Western Pacific bonds, will be call
ed upon to supply the cash. This
the Denver and Rio Grande should
have no difficulty in doing, as its
treasury is. strong in cash, and in
addition the company promises to
show a substantial surplus after in
terest charges and preferred divi-
dend requirements. For ten
months ended April 80. last, this
amounted to s1,6G1,263. For the
full year it should be in the neigh
borhood of $2,OOO,0O0.
Western Pacific's traffic for the
past two weeks has been showing
up more satisfactorily than at any
time since the road was opened for
through traffic in December. I'm
til quite recently the road has been
seriously handicapped by unfavora-
BILE weather conditions, chief of
which was the abnormal amount of
rain experienced along the line.
This resulted in numerous washouts
by reason of the newness of the
roadbed.

SENATOR nixon
in WINNEMUCCA

Senator george S. Nixon was in
Winnemucca a few days ago and in
conversation with a representative
of the Silver State and IN reply to
the question if he was candidate
for reelection said:
You may say that | am. In
fact my petition for the republican
primary nomination is at present
being circulated throughout the
state. Thus far | have heard of
no republican opposition, but
should it be considered that the
party possesses a stronger candi-
date l am willing to step down
and help elect the other man.
What do you consider the most
beneficial legislation enxcted at the
last session of congress, Senator?"
so far as Nevada is concerned,
should say the long and short
haul clause of the NV railroad
law. The recent. decision of the
interstate commerce commission
granting reduced rates to the in
termountain country wifi nave a
far-reaching effect. l-tinnemucca,
Reno and Elko will be the three
distributing points for the state and
will be enabled to shut out Sacra-
mento and San Francisco.
will there be any rurther tar
if legislation by the present con-
gress, Senator?''
II do not look for any, was the
reply. AT the last session $3.50
900 was appropriated tor the pur-
pose of gathering data regarding
the difference in cost, between this
country and Europe, and it will
probably be several years before the
commission is prepared to- report.
When it does, the ways and means
committees of the two houses will
be prepared to take up the question
in an intelligent manner.
In your judgment, senator, what
will the insurgent movement
amount to in the coming CAM
paign?'
Very little. Durin> the six
teen months he has occupied the
presidential chair, President Taft
has accomplished more IN the way
of promised legislation than did
any of his predecessors during their
entire term. The republican party
will go before the people at the
coming campaign squayely on its
congressional record and to doubt
