CREEK COLONY AND
PROSPECTS FOR
SUCCESS
Chances Are That Arteslan
Water Can Be Secured;
If So All is Well.

The reported sale of $4,000 acres Of
land surrounding Candelaria station, on
the Mexican Central railroad, As miles
south of FL Paso and the statement
that there is to be a colony establish
ed there. is very interesting news to
people who know the long stretches OF
country south of here on which in most
places absolutely nothing in the way
of development has been done.
After leaving Juarez, across the riv-
er, there is nothing for some miles but
land covered with scant brush, and
soon the railroad strikes into the
mesas, which look even worse than
the plains, and after time comes the
san dun country, which is composed or
white drifting sand. Coming to Sama-
Iayuca a few cattle are seen and the
remains of a soap factory In fast fall
ing adobe walls. Ten or fifteen miles
south Of Samalayuca begins the first
good looking grass country and at Can
delaria the country is looking its best.
East of the station of Candelaria
stretches for IL or 10 miles a great
plain, covered with grass, some of 1t
the famous gramma variety. Between
Samalayuca and CandNaria there are
no wells so the depth to water is not
known, but few miles south Of Can
delaria there is a well, on Escobar Her
manos Kilo ranch. The water in that
we'll is 200 feet deep. Four or ?re
miles farther on the same people have
another well, about two miles south of
the railroad, at the ranch called Roma.
The water IS about the same depth as
at Kilo, probably a little less The next
ranch going south on the railroad is
the Burke place on which there are
some wells. and the water is found at
lesser depths until the San Jose ranch
Is reached, and there is the lake Of
that name to which the whole valley
drains. AT Ahumada is found artesian
ater.
It will be interesting to watch the
development of this new colony. 1t is
possible that artesian water be struck
on the plain east Of the station at
Candelaria, but falling in that, water
could be pumped for domestic use and
the ranch devoted TO dry farming and
dairying. We hope the new colonists
will make a success of it. and thereby
make a breach In the dead level of
nothing doing" which exists for 100
miles south of Ell Paso on the Mexican
Central. IL the country south of FL
Paso can get started on the lines of
development it will mean much increase
in business for FL Paso, for there is
nothing but truth in the statement that
when anything is needed in the country
south Of here 1t is bought in FL Paso,
from needle to a steam engine

Pills, l thought that they might help
me and I began their use, procuring
a box at Kelly & Pollard's drug store.
They entirely rid me OF all my aches

A SPECIAL PLEADER

NHE San Francisco Post, which is
not friendly to those forces that
= are trying to break the hold of
the Southern Pacific machine on the
government of California, finds in the
years political experiences a text for
ironic shafts at the new direct primary
law. The confusion in politics is man
ifestly not to the liking of partisans
of a machine that used to grease the
ways so nicely that nominations and
elections were smooth and perfunctory
affairs.
The Post cites the Sibley campaign
in Pennsylvania as an instance of the
demoralzing effect of direct primaries
and proof that only a rich man has
show for success. Sibley is an agent
of the Standard Oil company, proven
so in 1908 by the expose of the Arch
bold letters that carried Foraker down
to oblivion. He spent $4,000 to get
his nomination to congress this year,
and there is abundant reason to be-
lieve that his old ally literally sup
piled him with the sinews of war.
4u6Ic IL diSO lGciooll ~ tIC 1iINNShI-
cation which is soon to take place.
If it is an honest one we shall be sur
prised if it does not show debauchery
of the electorate, for no man, in our
opinion, can honestly spend $4,000 in
a single congressional district either
for his nomination or his election. So
the Sibley case does not prove any
thing as yet, but it may prove good
deal ultimately.
AS for the California law, it is true
that it has somewhat complicated
things, but there are two replies to
that. In the first place it is not cer-
tain that is a bad thing. 1t is waking
the people up and educating them as
to their responsibility and power, In
the second place it is ar imperfect
law because it was purposely deformed
by its enemies in the legislature in or
der to make it unWorkable if possible.
1t may need some reforming, but it is
a pleasure to say that the signs in
dicate it will be reformed by it's friends
and not those who would cast it bodily
into the Pacific if they could.

GILLETT'S o. K.

TN A RECENT address to the horti-
culturists of Sacramento county
= Governor Gillett came out with an
open Endorsement of Alden Anderson
as his official legatee. He said:
q hope the fruit men will have
in the next governor a man who is
acquainted with your interests and
your work and one who can be of
benefit to you. You need man
who has your interests at heart. 1
hope when l retire from Office that
you will place a man in the gov
ernor's chair who will be constantly
with you in your efforts to bring
the fruit industry up to where it
belongs and who never forgets the
fruit interests of the state.''
AS there is only one man in the CUB
ernatorial race who is fruit grower,
and that man is Anderson it is obvious
that Gillett was putting Boss Herrin's
o. X. rubber stamp on his candidacy.
There is therefore no further doubt
which one of the aspirants the South
ern Pacific road favors. It's choice
would seem we'll advised, for the rec
ords show that he is one in spirit with
it in the way to get and stay rich, and
would be a very dependable man in
the governors chair.
The San Francisco Bulletin recalls
that Anderson, while lieutenant gov
ernor of California, was manager of a
shipping concern known as the Cali
fornia Fruit Distributors. At that time
certain favored shippers were getting
large rebates from Armour & Co.,
which firm was supplying the refriger-
ator cars. The interstate commerce
commission took the matter up and
held an investigation. one Of the wit
nesses was II. j. Streyckmans, who
had been employed by the Armours as
a stenographer. He told of making up
allowance sheets, giving the amount
of rebates granted to those "on the in
side" Attorney Marchand OF the in
terstate commerce commission then
asked the Witness:
do you know personally of any
shipper getting rebates?"
Yes" answered Streyckmans, "At
the very time that Lieutenant Cover
nor Alden Anderson of California was
declaring in the newspapers that he
was not getting rebates l was making
out his rebate statements which showed
that he got rebates amounting to about
81 per cent of tariff charges"
So it seems that Anderson meets
Governor Gillett's requirements, at
least to the extent of knowing what
is good for ONE fruit grower. But we
should say that when this incident gets
noised abroad thoroughly among other
growers who are not so fortunate as
to have pull with the railroads they

quency with which passenger cars are
cleaned and fumigated and the thor
oughness which should characterize the
cleansing of the bedding used in the
sleeping cars. These subjects come
properly within the jurisdiction of the
chief surgeons of the railroads, for
they are charged with the duty of con-
serving the health Of both passengers
and employees Some companies have
made more progress along these lines
than others. One at least announces
that it cleans and fumigates its cars
after every trip. The railroads will be
able to accomplish twice as much by
uniting their efforts after mapping out
a comprehensive campaign against dis
ease. This arousing of the great cor
porations to the necessity for protect
ing the health of their patrons is one
of the most encouraging signs of the
times,

How Hamilton Came to Fly

/ chine, with Hamilton, dropped 200 feet
to the river. He scrambled on Top dur
ing the swift descent and got nothing
worse than a ducklng.
Hamilton next turned his attention
to diriglbles. For time he flew for
Charles ], Strobel, a Toledo inventor.
He was exhibiting at Brighton Beach
when Henri Farnan came from France
to make flights at the race track
there.
He introduced his swoops, that have
become famous, in the Brighton Beach
season, letting himself nearly to the
ground, then darting swiftly aloft and
cutting fantastic figures in the air Af-
ter Brighton Beach he went to Japan.
where he exhibited a dirigible and
gave instruction to the army. That
venture did not prove a fortunate one
in aviation and when he lost his bal
loon he resorted to his fiddle, which
earned him enough money to come
home. Last November he turned up
at Har1mondsport to learn to fly a
Curtiss biplane. At the second lesson
he stayed up 25 minutes and the next
day 70 minutes. He made a deal with
Curtiss for the machine that made
the records at Rheims last year. Since
then he has been flying It, He used II
recently with the motors that brought
Curtiss down from Albany when he
won Ine WOrlu > @lUOUU pTlle
His exhibitions with the Curtiss ma
chine took him well over the country.
He was at Los Angeles with Paulhan,
from whom he got many ideas in glid-
ing. He had several high falls, but es-
capped serious injury.
In April at San Antonio he lowered
the starting record to 3-S second, the
machine leaving the ground at seventy
feet. Curtiss formerly held the rec
ord of 5,25 seconds for the start, the
machine leaving the ground at ninety
eight feet
Hamilton last arrived here at the end
of May after a southern tour intend
ing to try for the Worlds $4,000
prize, but before he could make ready
Curtiss had won it, He Immediately
declared himself competitor in the
New York-St. Louis prize for $4,000
Offered by the World and the st.
ST. Louis Post-Dispatch and also for
the $25. 900 New York Chicago prize of
fered by the New York Times and
the Chicago Evening Post as soon as
they were announced.

Florida, where he also took up man

Wisconsin's New Laboratory

of the associations of lumber manu-
facturers have been in a wrangle for
years with the organizations OF rail-
road purchasing agents involving THESE
very points.
Investigations into wood preservation
and wood distillation can be hardly or
a secondary Importance now. The con-
sumer is confronted with the necessity,
on account OF the prices he has to pay,
of making wood last as long as pos
sible, while the manufacturer of lum-
ber is looking in every direction for
possible use of by-products to be made
by the section of wood pulp. This sec
ton will investigate the practicability
of using wood and forest waste for the
manufacture of fiber products.
Chemistry, by this meaning studies of
the chemical properties of wood and the
products that may be derived from
them; engineering, having to do mainly
with the designing of machines and ap-
parati used to manufacture wood and
in the utilization of waste; and path
ology, which covers the wide and i'm
portant field of diseases which cause
decay of wood, are all subjects that
should not fail to challenge the interest
and enlist the support of every intelli-
gent lumberman in the country.
OF less Importance to lumbermen
than the above is the announcement on
behalf of the university that, beginning
with the next school year In September,
a new course in forestry will be estab-
lished whereby the students will take
up sawmill and numbering with the OBJ
ject in view of utilizing all the by
products of the tree. Not before has
such comprehensive plan been under
taken. Instead of the students putting
in two or three years with technical
studies and then a few months in the
woods before graduating, they will be
plunged into the forests. the sawmill
and the lumber yard. the final year
only being spent in technical study.
after a foundation of practical knowl-
edge has been laid. The new course
is intended to fit a man to know the
value of timber, the rse to which each
wood may be most profitably put, how
to conserve the timber in the use of
every by-product, how to build the mill,
and whether it should have as an ad-
junct paper mill, excelsior factory or
a turpentine plant.
The establishment of this labora-
tory ushers in new era in American
forestry.

NOT so EASY

THE new union labor party, which
the organized workers of the city
- say they have already got in
healthy embryonic state, threatens that
one of its first steps will be to vote
Los Angeles dry which, of course,
means that it will be done to teach
the brewers, who have locked out their
employees, a lesson on the power of
labor
Disregarding the question as to
whether the workingmen are really
willing to forgo their "skittles and
beer" for a principle, it is not at all
certain that they will find it so easy
to accomplish. The local option press
bureau recalls in a recent circular that
nearly four years ago the supervisors
of San Luis Obispo county submitted
the license question to a vote, and the
decision was overwhelmingly against
license, yet about sixty licensed saloons
continue to run in that county, and for
all these years the people there have
had to submit to government by min
ority. Del Norte county has had
similar experience, while in several
other counties the supervisors are even
now hesitating about giving force to
the will of the people as expressed at
the ballot box.
Recent court decisions have added to
the difficulty of getting even an ad-
visory vote on the liquor question. AS
the law now stands trustees and super
visors will be enjoined upon petition of
any taxpayer from putting the license
question on the ballot at any regular
election. Not long ago the appellate
court at San Francisco issued writ
restraining the city clerk of San Jose
from putting this question on the bal
lot. A little later the superior court in
Fresno issued similar restraining
order to the county clerk there, and
still more recently the superior court
at San Bernardino did likewise for the
city clerk of Cotton.
1t is evident that John Barleycorn
has been one of the most successful of
the army of lobbyists at Sacramento in
past years, and has we'll fortified his
power with statutes that have buttoned
up California pretty tightly on the
LIQUOR question. This state is one Of
the few in the country now that
haven't local option of the genuine
kind, and it is likely to remain so until
legislatures are chosen that are not
controlled by the agencies sent to the
state capital to see that "our interests"
are protected.

These are only few of the most
fragrant examples of what political
pull is constantly doing at Washington
to bolster up the political fortunes of
the representatives. They make clear
why the pork barrer' is so honored an
institution, and why, after the de-
mands of the members are satisfied as
nearly as may be, it is no easy matter
to get an appropriation out of congress
for a great undertaking as, let US say,
the Los Angeles harbor, although it
promise to benefit not only great city
and state but to add to the wealth and
Importance of the whole nation.
