While this is presidential year
with long list of offices to fill from
president down to constable, the peo-
pie of the San Juan basin have prob
lens of much more interest and value
TO the community than who fills this
or that office. The future of this
great southwest empire is largely de-
pendent on certain contingencies. In
the first place, and of the greatest
importance, is railroad facilities. Not
since the death of Hartman has the
railroad outlook been as bright We
all know that if Hartman had lived
six months longer the A. a. G. road
would be running daily trains into
Durango at this time. Durango and
the southwest lost by the death of
one man. Now the horizon is clear
ing again and every sign points to
something doing in the way Of rail-
road building providing we do our
part. This means that the people OF
Durango and the entire basin must
be united. They cannot afford to let
politics or any petty jealousies inter
fere in the least in the good work.
There must be head and those who
are pushing the work are doing SO
because no one else took up the
cudgel, therefore it behooves every
one to set aside personal feelings and
get in the band wagon. The work
of gathering the necessary statistics
must be pushed without delay. 1t
will require much work and the ex-
pense will be quite an item. This ex-
pense should be equally borne. Do
not let your neighbor bear the burden.
Now is the accepted time. Delay
may cause another postponement like
three years ago.
The railroad proposition is not the
only thing we have to consider. The
initial steps have been taken for the
establishment in this San Juan en-
pire of u great educational institution,
largely agricultural at the present
time, but one that will grow and
branch out to the advancement of the
rising generation and the financial
welfare of the general public. We
must get behind the Fort Lewis school
and boost. The benefits may not seem
important at this time, but those who
have followed the benefits of large
educational institutions know the vast
benefits of such institutions to com
munity in every way.
Then, another thing upon which our
people as a whole should unite is
good roads. There should be no di-
vision of sentiment. We want men
elected to office who understand the
situation and are able to make money
go the fartherest. Experiments are
costly. Elect experienced and we'll
qualified men county commissioners;
elect members of the general assem-
bly, who will give the good roads
movement more loyal support, and
bind each and every office to strict
performance of duties-men who will
take an active part in pushing the
upbuilding of this southwest district
instead of devoting their time and
money to petty politics.

ODELL TELLS A
DIFFERENT STORY
FORMER GOVERNORS STATE
MENT DIFFERS FROM THAT OF
SHELDON.

Washington, ID. c.. Aug. 14.-For-
mer Governor Odell of New York
told the senate investigating commit
tee today that Edward Hartman
raised $24O,O0O for the republican
campaign in 1904. after Hartman
had talked with Roosevelt at the
white house, in obedience to sum-
mons from the president, that the
money was turned over to the ma
tional committee and that Odell re-
ceived 100000 of it for the state
campaign.
Odell said that Hartman told him
Roosevelt had agreed TO appoint Sen
ator Depew as ambassador to France
if necessary, leaving the senator
ship clear for Frank S. Blake.
Asked why his testimony was so
different from that of George X.
Sheldon's, Odell said Cornelius n.

committee, might have told Sheldon
white lies about it

Hot Springs, Ark, Aug. 1i.-Sud-
denly changing his mind tonight,
Sam Schepps. arrested here last Sat
urday night and held as material
witness in the Rosenthal murder
case, announced his Willingness To
return to New York with Assistant
District Attorney Rubin. Postmaster

day giving a description of Rubih'
Stewar and Thomas, Thomas is eN-

arrive late tonight or tomorrow, Ru-
bin is expected TO start for New

morrow.
Schepps had earlier today pro
fessed 10 be dissatisfied because Ru-
bin could not fully identify himself
as the district attorneys representa-

at seems they lay more stress on
/ Thomas as the man to take Schepps
remarked Petit, after receiving "a
telegram giving the descriptions
Schepps' attitude seems to be that
of waverlng between fear that the
men who came today are not Rubin
and Stewart and a belief that per-
haps after all they are what they
repre sent themselves to be. OF the
facts there is scarcely any real
doubt even in the minds OF the au-
thorities. Telegrams were eXchang'
ed between Whitmans office and
Rubin during the day. Rubin show
ed Schepps an acknowledgment OF
payment made to an insurance com
pany, letter written by William
Rubin, his brother, and such other
documents he happens to have with
him, proving himself to be Rubin
Schepps one moment will say that 1t
looks all right only to change his
attitude the next. He was asked to
define his attitude toward Rubin and
Stewart. He replied that his
attitude toward the accred J.
tied representatives OF whit
man office has already been given
in statement given the Associated
Press on Tuesday but as to has
attitude toward the two men who ar

he Just does not know what To

for Schepps was found to be un
true. 1t was learned that a federa

ing and gambling caused the report
Pressed For further examination oj

ON the Rock Island the appeal
made some time ago to employed
in which stress was laid upon the
gain that the saving of a nickel a
day would give has been supple
mented by another for the saving OF
a dollar a day by less rough hand
ling of the cars. 1t is represented
that such handling is responsible
for 90 to 60 per cent of the repairs
that have to be made, as well as
a large percentage for claims made
for damage to freight and which
aggregates $1O00,O00 a year. To
sustain these presentations and i'm
press upon the minds of the men
to what extent they can prevent
so much expense on This account,
the statement is made that 80 per
cent or $l.756,473 of the total
amount expended for repairs last
year was caused by rough handling.
As the Rock Island has 5000 en-
ployes this is at a cost of $35l an
