Ogden, Utah, Jan. 3.-Southern Pa
cif1c train No. 1, the Overland limited,
westbound, was held up by two mask
ed bandits at an early hour this morn
ing at Reese, nine miles west of Ogden.
William Davis, negro porter, was shot
and instantly killed and A. w. Taylor,
another porter, was mortally wounded.
passenger was slightly wounded.
The robbers did not attempt to enter
the express car but devoted their en-
tire attention to the Pullmans where
they made rich haul among the
California bound passengers, holding
the train for more than an hour.
The train crew was brought back to
Ogden on special train for the pur-
pose of giving more detailed accounts
of the robbery and aiding in identifica-
tion of any suspects which may be
rounded UP by the four armed posses
in the field or by the police of this
city, who are making a house to house
canvass of the rooming places and ho-
tells in the railroad district.
The detectives are of the opinion
that the robbers made their way to
ogden and are in hiding here. This
theory is based on the fact that after
Overland Limited No. had been
robbed the bandits uncoupled the en-
gine of the train and commanded the
engineer to take the switch and back
his engine in the direction of Ogden.
The light engine had proceeded only
short distance when it met a freight
train on the main line, blocking fur
ther progress. The men after hold
ing up the freight crew and destroy
ing the telegraph instrument in the
caboose, took to the wagon road and
were last seen afoot a short distance
west of ogden, when they held up a

Since then no trace of the bandits
who are heavily armed, has been
found.
The Southern Pacific and allied
Hartman roads will offer a heavy re-
ward for the robbers. The killing OF
VIM. Davis, whose home is in Chicago,
and the wounding of A. w. Taylor,
both Pullman porters, were unpro-
voked acts on the part OF the bandits
The negroes were in a drawing room
of a Pullman when the robbers en-
tered and they made no move to re-
sist.
One of the thugs asked his confed-
crate:

The fire department was powerless to do

When the flames were discovered at

The entire fire fighting force of the city

The hotel appeared to be doomed and
was reported on fire three times, but
bucket brigades and saturated blankets
were used effectively each time.

was discovered was degrees above zero

cepting Judge Pollock alone.
81 am not surprised at this decision
as I have all along fully expected the
principle of guaranty of bank deposits
to be vindicated. I have at all times
contended that the guaranty law
passed by the Kansas legislature last
session is one of the best laws for the
depositors ever placed on the statutes
since the system of banking was
founded
1.-THE final result of this decision will
be, when it is worked out to a final
conclusion, that every man, woman and
child who places money in any bank in
America will receive it back on de-
mand 100 cents on the dollar and no
less.
This is as it should be. and shall
contend with every honorable means
at the disposal of my Office to help
bring about this result in Kansas and
over the west as far as it is possible
for me to help.
1T is my opinion that this supreme
court decision will result in many
other western states passing bank
guaranty laws during the sessions OF
their legislatures this winter. 1 shall
be greatly disappointed if the kan
spread rapidly over the entire western
country"
Governor Stubbs EIated.
Governor w. R. Stubs, who was
nominated and elected two years ago
on a platform pledged to the guaranty
OF bank deposits and who has, like
Bank Commissioner Dolley, his ap-
pointee, used all the influence and ma
chinery of his office to promote the
guaranty law and who fought for it
after it had been passed and was un-
der fire, was elated today when told
of the supreme court decision uphold
ing the law.
Good exclaimed the governor in
his hearty fashion, when he heard the
news. THAT is fine news you are tell
ing me. Best I have heard in a long
time 1 regard this as one of the big
decisions of the United States supreme
court; as one of the big decisions af-
fecting the history of banking. 1t is of
vast Importance. I believe as result
of the voice of the supreme court heard
today in this matter that in a few
years every bank in this country Will
6 1rantee its deposits. This ought to
be the condition. It is in the interest
of the public welfare and the interest
of the banks. 1t is the safer, better,
cleaner way. 1t is in the interest of
the entire country

and as governor of this state where the
bank guaranty idea was started along

| Special 10 he Nr7OS
Mr. Editor, l will give you a few
dots from this part, as / feel quite
lonesome after having had good
crowd of young people here last night
and this morning and having music.
Some good old band pieces, some good
old-time church pieces and many 9TH
er pieces suited to the young people.
After having "a good time and good
music on the talking machine they be-
gan to depart. Walter Russell, wife
and baby returned to their home in
the bottoms, Leroy George and sister,
and Douglass J. Russell returned to
their home at Big Eddy ON st. Fran
els River. Mr.. Martin and sister and
cousin, Miss NJ. Perkins, returned to
their home on Crawley's Ridge, and
Mr.. Clark returned to his home on
Crowley's Ridge.
The sun has shown out again for the
second time since Sunday and the
wind is swiftly flying and is warm
enough for mosquitoes to be flying
around, and once in while they will
sting as lively as they do in the sum
mer time. Oh. the trifiing pests l
wish l knew of some remedy to dispel
them. Perhaps '.Uncle Tom" could
tell me how to get rid of them, but as
he is gone and will not write any
more, cannot get the remedy from
him. If Jimmy K. John will send me
some of Dooley's Liniment l think
maybe that will do the work for them.
l wonder what has got wrong with
"Cold Wave. I reckon it has got too
warm in the sunk lands and he has
gone further north, and think it
would be good idea for him to go
somewhere to get out of that sickly
country.
Mr.. A. j. Brannan, come on. Your
letters are worth many times their
weight in gold. They just fit me any
how, and ] believe the time is nearby
when we will all be Socialists. / can
say as one of old, as for myself and
my house. we are Socialists, and it is
the only thing that ever will bring us
out from under the yoke of bondage,
and it may take considerable time to
educate the people so they will under
stand what Socialism is, but as fast as
one sees it like it is, he is Socialist.
If there are any of the boys in Se-
quachee Valley who are farmers and
cannot rent land right just come out
to old Arkansas, and she will deal
fairly with you and furnish you all
you want to make crop.

New Aetna Coal Company Wins
In Fight With n. C. & st. |.
Railroad.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30 The in
terstate commerce commission has been
assisting the New Aetna Coal Compa-
ny Of Tennessee in its fight for better
rates on coal shipped over the lines of
the Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis Railway Company.
Three cases in which the coal COM
pany complained of unfairness in the
freight rates charged on coal ship
ments have been decided in favor of
the complainant. In one case the OPP
inion of the interstate commerce COM
mission is that the company shall re-
fund to the New Aetna Coal Company
$11. so on one carload of blacksmith
coal shipped from Whiteside, Tenn, to
Dallas, Ga, April 10, 1910. In anoth
er refunding of $40 is directed in a
shipment of one carload of blacksmith
coal from Whiteside to Dalton, Ga,
on April 90, 1910. In the third case a
refunding of $1t.38 is directed on a
shipment of one carload of blacksmith
coal from Whiteside to Montgomery.
Ala, on April %, 1910.
In each case the defendant railroad
company is directed to refrain from
enforcing the existing rates on black
smith coal as excessive, and it is ex-
pected the three decisions will have
the effect of preventing any future
charges which would cause complaint.

AUTOMOBILES
FOR FARMERS
Their Use Increasing.
Their Coming Brings
Good Roads.

The farmers of Tennessee are be
ginning to buy automobiles. One en-
terprising farmer in East Tennessee
is reported to have bought an auto
mobile truck with which to haul his
own and his neighbor's produce to
market. In other states, notably Kan
sas. it is the usual and not the unusual
thing for farmers to own automobiles.
The automobile will revolutionize
conditions in the country. 1t will
make the farmer, more than ever; the
most independent man on earth. 1t
will give the farmer all the adVant-
ages of the farm anG city with
none Of the disadvantages OF the
latter. Furthermore, 1t will make
the farmer the most enthusl-
astic good roads man on earth.
The question of good roads in Ten
nessee will soon be the biggest ques-
ton in the state. In fact, few people
realize how widespread the interest
ia. A few days ago the Appalachian
Trade Journal, the good roadsVmaga-
zine of Tennessee, wrote to 1872 news
papers in the state asking how many
were in favor OF putting the state con-
victs on the road. More than one
third Of these newspapers replied IA
vorably within four or five days. No
unfayorable replies were received.
This Is a remarkable response. 1t
shows that the newspaper men are
up to date, that they know what other
states are doing with convicts. They
know that Tennessee is behind the
times in using its convicts in compe-
tition with free labor.
They know that Tennessee is far
behind in the humane treatment OF
convicts, in using them as so many
chattels. Other states look ahead,
and by giving prisoners outdoor work
on the roads, improve their health and
morals. Tennessee crowds its vic
tins together and conditions favor the
increase of tuberculosis.
The next legislature viii wrestle
with the new road law. All classes
should see their representatives and
have them understand that the SEN
timent is strong in favor of working
all able bodied convicts on the state.

Faussett's Bible Cyclopaedia gives his
age when made governor at about
twenty years. This would make his
death at seventy A. d. 2. Chamber s
Cyclopaedia and Smiths Bible Die
tionary give his age at that time as
fifteen years, which woud place his
death at A. ID. z The exact date of
Herod's death would, if known, be a
valuble aid in determining events, and
B. O. A Is believed by many to be the
first year of our Lord. But the date
of the crncifixion being A. d. 33, it
| follows that if Jesus had been born B.
@. 4, he would have been thirty six
years old when he died; and his min
istry from his thirtieth to his thirty
sixth year would have been six years
But our, Lords ministry was only
three and a half years, and though
generally admitted is proven by Dan
iel,s prophecy (9:24-s6) concerning the
Messiah's cutting off in the middle of
symbolic week of seven days of years
after three and half days of years of
preaching.
Again, those who try to harmonize
with Joseptus find it hard to get over
the date above referred to in Luke 81.
To do so. they claim that Tiberius be-
gan to reign three or four years before
Augustus died. But history shows
that he was only called to assist ON ac-
count of Augustus declining age. See
Meriyaleas History of the Romans ZAP
pleton 81 Vol. A, PIP. 22O-221.
Another strong point in favor of the
October date is. that the shepherds
were in the fields with their fooks at
the time of our Savior's birth Luke
2:S, t0) fact which would make De-
cember 25th Ia mid-winter date) in
consistent with what we know about
herding sheep.
I read with interest the Editors
answer to Mr.. Layne's query and will
be glad to read any others that may
appear. And while our Lord never in
structed us to celebrate his birthday,
we are always glad to see the great
festival come and gladly join in our
little way in the love and good will
manifested and urge all to celebrate in
the right spirit every day of their
lives.
