Will Be EcIipsed, Says J. S.
Denis From Reports.

Chicago, Feb. 21.-The emigration
of 100000 people during 1911 from the

ces of Canada, which was predicted

Canada, from reports to him when in
Chicago from agents of the company,

year Even when compared with
the movements Of the last two or
three years from the United States
10 western Canada he said. the in
dications are that there will be a very
marked movement Of people. The
prospects for crops in the west are
very bright, owing to the fact that

a 'arge amount Of land ready for
spring crops. In southern Alberta the
fall conditions and he unusual snow

Mr. Dennis had just returned from
Great Britain and Europe where he
spent two months arranging for the
extension Of the organization dealing
with immigration from England and
the continent to western Canada. He
said that the increased movement of
homeseehers from both Great Britain
and northern Europe this year will be
very large. over 1000 applications

BIG COLONIST MOVEMENT
BEGINS MARCH 10
New Mexico Should Get Its Share of
Small Farmers That Are
Comma West,


Bellingham, Wash, Feb. 21.-Rail-
way men predict that the colonist
movement, beginning March 10 and
continuing 80 days, will be the largest
in the history of the Pacific slope
country. Special rates have been
made from Chicago and points in, the
Mississippi and Missouri river valleys
and special equipment will be added
on all lines tapping New Mexico,
Washington, Oregon, Idaho Califor-
mia, Montana and the provinces Of AL
berta and British Columbia. Advices
are there will be large influx of
small farmers, fruit and truck grow
ers, who have sold their holdings in
the middle western and southern
states at good prices and are coming
west to clear and improve cut-over
timber lands, while others will take
up homesteads. Several thousand
acres of improved lands have been
sold recently to eastern parties.

Washington, Feb. 21.-Nippy win,

all over the country. The snow and
rain storms which have swept clear
across the country, have gone, but the
increased barometric pressure has
sent the mercury down in a hurry,
freezing weather prevailing as far

Texas Orange Crop Is Safe.
Houston, Texas, Feb. 21,-The two
days cold snap which swept over
Texas, the temperature dropping for
u period of about thirty-six hours be-
low the frost line, emphasized the
fact that Texas is a citrus fruit coun-
try and also that the satsuma varie-
" of orange will withstand any drop
in temperature that is likely to come
TO this part of the southwest The
opinion was prevalent Immediately
following this so-called "cod spell"
that the orange orchards along the
Gulf coast and in the southwest sec.
ton of the state had been injured.
But that little damage WAS done is
now apparent in the condition of the
trees and the prospects for the com
ing crop. Satsuma trees show no
signs OF injury and appear to be as
thrifty and promising as ever. In
stead of injuring The citrus fruit trees
Of this section 0 the country the
slight drop below he frost line is ac-

that there is little danger to any of
The varieties Of the citrus fruit fam
lily from cold weather in this part OF
the country. At a recent meeting of
Texas orange growers at Corpus
Christi, at which a number of Florida
and California growers were present,
it was maintained rnaG NO secuon OF
the country presents as few dangers
to the orange crop as Southwest
Texas. At this meeting the orange
farmers were a unit in their asser-
ton that no permanent damage had
been done the citrus fruit trees In
line with the opinions expressed here
orange farmers in all parts Of the
southwest are adding thousands of
trees to their orchards this year, one
farmer alone planting 5000 trees.

MENTALLY UNBALANCED

San Antonio Texas, Feb. 21.-Mrs.
A. D. McNabb, daughter of Mrs. Car,

the county court here yesterday
During the course of the examinations
the fact was brought out that Mrs.
Nation herself is in an institution in
the east taking treatment for mental
trouble, and the physicians stated
that there is apparently a strain OF
insanity in the family. DR.. O'Ferrell
of Richmond, Texas, testified that in
his opinion there was mental unbal-
ance running through the family. He
had been the family physician of Mrs
Carrie Nation and all the relatives
for number of years, and this had
become noticeable to him. 1t was DR.
O'Ferrell who gave out the informa;
ton that Mrs. Nation is under treat
ment for mental disturbance. 1t was
also shown that this is not the first
time that Mrs. McNabb has shown
signs of inherent insanity. She was

Thousands of people throughout this

ASPHALT IN TIE
LOWER RIO GRANDE.
In Quality it is Declared to Equal the
Product Of Trinidad Island,
West Indies.


West Indies.
Brownsville Texas. Feb. 21.-For
years it has been known that beds of
asphalt lie along the Gulf coast off
Texas at a number Of places. This
has been used for paving purposes
and found to be of excellent quality.
1t is maintained by some that it is
quite as good as Trinidad product but
has to be worked by slightly different
processes. While these beds have
not been worked commercially as ex-
tensively as they might have been,
the growing demand indicates a more
general use of this material.
1t is believed now that great
beds Of this mineral so far untouched
exist near the mouth of the Rio Gran
de river Some days ago while
company Of engineers were at work
near the mouth of the river they
found sand bars covered in places
with chunks of asphalt some of them
weighing as much as fifty pounds.
With the company were a number of
men who have had wide experience
along geological lines and these pro-
nounced the specimens found equal in
every particular to the best Trinidad
asphalt.
SO far no effort has been made to
develop the asphalt beds in that part
of Texas, but it is understood that
the recent discovery made by the en-
gineers will lead to more thorough in.
vestigation and an uncovering of the
deposit from which the samples men,
toned in the foregoing came. Those
in a position to know maintain that
in the near future Texas will produce
large part of the asphalt used in
this country

leaders Of the Roosevelt type, who

WOODROW WILSON LECTURES
JERsEYlTEs ON THEIR DIS
TlNGuIsHlNG SIN.

For dozen years or more the
treasury OF the state Of New Jersey
has overflowed with the fees paid
by big robber corporations for char
ters to rob the people of the sew
eral states. From a moral stand
point, the state of New Jersey might
Just as well have licensed pirate
ships, to prey upon the commerce
of the oceans, and taken in payment
therefor a certain percentage of the
stolen property.
But New Jersey took its first step
toward better things when it elect
ed democratic governor last fall.
Woodrow Wilson will do what he
can to dissolve the criminal partner
ships, which exist between the state
Of New Jersey and these law defying
corporations. In his inaugural ad.
dress he spoke conservatively on
this subject as follows:
We are much too free with grants
of charters to corporations in New
Jersey. A corporation exists only
by license Of law, and the law is
responsible for what it creates. II
can never rightly authorize any
kind of fraud or imposition. 1t can
not righteously allow the setting
up of business which has no. sound
basis or which follows methods
which in any way outrage justice OF
fair dealing or the principles of hon
est industry. The law cannot give
its license to things of that kind. II
thereby authenticates what it ough
to forbid.
