PRESIDENT GOMEZ BIG JOB

Notwithstanding the statement oil
President Gomez Of Cuba, that he
would soon put down the rebellion
against his government, there are
VelLinformed Americans who think
the Cuban president has a really big
Job on bis hands.
One such man, who recently re-
turned from the island said that the
chief trouble with the Cuban govern
ment is that 1t doesn't understand
economies and has no desire to do so.
ANY person who arises with a sugges-
ton to check the reckless expendl-
lures is quickly squelched. More than
anything else Cuba needs some one
to curb this throwing away of public
money and the United States will
have to put some one in Cuba to do
that very thing in the near future.
The budget must be prepared under
some systematic plan Of making neces-
sary expenditures for the public good
and not under a general plan of dis
tributing money for the benefit Of

ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN.
Dynamite Placed Under Wheels of
No. 16 Saturday.

A dastardly attempt was made to
wreck northbound passenger train
No 16 last Saturday evening, when
some miscreant placed dynamite on
the Southern Pacific track at Merlin,
and only the fact that the powder
failed to explode when the wheels of
the engine struck it saves the record
ing of an accident that might have
been horrifying in its results.
Following the passage of the first
section of No. 16, due ia Merlin at
about O'Clock, a brakeman on a
freight train discovered dynamite on
the track at the upper end of the
yard and near the upper switch. The
wheels of No. 16 had ground the eX-
plOsive into bits, showing that it had
been placed directly upon the rails,
but from the fragments left it is evi-
dent that from six to seven sticks of
No. 2 Hercules giant powder had
been used in the effort to ditch the
train. The powder, which bears the
date of manufacture, 1909, was evil
IDENTIFY too old to EXPLODE from the
grinding of the wheels. No cap or
fuse was found with it, and it seems
likely that the persons who placed II
on the track expected it to be fired
when the train ran over it.
Powder men say that good fresh
powder will readily explode under
such conditions if the weather be
warm or if the powder be heated.
Powder as old as that used at Merlin,
however, is never sold, and miners
and others who use tons of it in this
district every year will buy only
freshly made stock The powder
placed upon the track was evidently
from some old mining prospect
where it had been stored, possibly in
a damp place, till its strength had
been largely lost, to which fact can
be credited the saving of No. 16 and
its dozen or more coach-loads of pas
sengers.
The amount of powder used would
have been sufficient, say those versed
in the action of dynamite, to have
hurled the engine from the track and
thus have ditched the entire train.
There is no suspicion pointing in
any direction, and no clue was left
to aid in the apprehension of the
party who endangered scores of lives
by deed that merits capital punish
ment if any deed does.
