the balloting for the vice presidential can

This followed closely on the clearing Of

Students, who began roofing for Vasquez

work of the assembly was temporarily
closed. semblage Of order had prevailed
for not more than thirty minutes after
wards when the supporters OF Gomez de-
clared they would have nothing more to
do with such a farce"
The first ballot was in progress and DR.
Gomez and suarez were far in the lead
running side by side. Fernano Igleasias
Calderon was in third pace with Alfredo
Robes Dominguez a bad fourth.
The supporters Of Gomez had developed
unexpected strength during the day and
every available vote was guarded ieal-
ously. The supporters Of suarez already had
been charged with irregular methods. so
when a delegate from Chihuahua placed
fifty votes, representing 5000 members in
his state, there was an instant comparing
OF notes, with the result that he was
charged with abusing thu confidence placed
In him by his constituents who had in
structed him to vote for Gomez

STORY TOLD BY AN OLD MAP
Passenger Department of Union Pa
cific Secures Relic of Days
when West Was wild.

The passenger department of the Union
Pacific is in receipt Of an aged map that Is
priced very highly as a relic, as 1t gives
an idea of the west when II was wild. The
map was found at Minneapolis by District
Passenger Agent Carter and has been
brought by that official TO the local head
quarters to so into the museum of cuTios.
The old map unearthed by Mr.. Carter
was issued in 1865 and on It the Union Pa
cific is designated as the Platte Valley
Route" II shows the Union Pacific COM
pleted into Utah. Omaha is on the map,
but II has no railroad, other than the Union
Pacific. Minneapolis, at the time, did not
even have a name, its location being desig-
mated as "st. Anthony Falls" There was
one line of road running into st. Paul.
There, was but one road running out OF
Kansas City. II was known as the Kansas
Pacific and extended as far west as Fort
Hays Denver was without a railroad. In
fact there was not foot OF railroad in
the state OF Colorado.
At the time of the issuance Of the old
Union Pacific map, Wyoming had not even
been carved out as a territory. II was then
part OF Dakota, which undivided, ex-
tended from the British possessions as far
south as the north line OF Colorado and
formed the western boundary of Nebraska
To the west IT extended TO Idaho.
