BROWN STATES
RIO GRANDE IS
GETTING BUSY

That the Rio Grande will start the
work of electrifyiug the divisions be
tween Helper and Salt Lake and be
tween Minturn and Salida. just as
soon as the engineers have finished
with their surveys and estimates, was
asserted this morning by General
Manager e. l.. Brown of the Rio
Grande railway, who passed through
the city this noon on his way to Salt
Lake City in private car, "Bally-
claire"
Mr.. Brown told a Sentinel report
er that the work of standard gauging
Marshall pass will be one OF the first
pieces of work completed and that
the survey gangs will be through
with their work on the pass soon. He
says large number of men are now
at work on tile project, which will
cost the Rio Graudc S3,O00,0OO
Asked II the engineers on the di-
visions to be electrified would he
given first chance as mOtOrmcu on
the electric Locomotives. Mr.. Brown
said, with some show Of spirit: -
wish you would say nothing about
that. We are tired Of being asked
that question and have no answer to
make public
He stated that on Soldier Summit

and gangs at work on the new grade
reducing detour around the famous
hill. Mr.. Brown states that the new
engines ordered by the Rio Grande
have not arrived in Denver as has
been reported and will not be here
until the first Of the year.
When asked what he thought the
outlook for Colorado is for 1913, in
business way, Brown said, Il don't
care to say. know very little about
your state" When the subject of
the Missouri Pacific was suggested
he smiled broadly and said, That
road is in splendid shape in every
way. 1t is a corker and we are all
proud OF it"
The Brown special will return
through this city later in the week.
He will be in Helper over night.

Dispatch from Charles Town says:
Thomas R Moore, Chairmqn of the
Democratic County Committee, will
probably call the committee together
about the latter part of March to fix
the time for holding aaprimary election
throughout the county. The sentiment
for Speaker Clark seems to be making
great Roadway in this section -
Haven't hearn tell of it
Where does the Registers Special
Correspondent get his Inspiration? If
we can gauge public sentiment. we be,
lieva that an overwhelming majority of
the Democratic voters Of Jefferson
favor Woodrow Wilson.

have the County Executive Committee

Presidential candidates on the ballots

Thinning the fruit is. comparatively,
new doctrine; but it brings astonishing
results. It is because they thin their
fruit on the trees, sometimes takinr on
over half the crop in July and August,
that Western growers are able to pro-
duce only fancy fruit. They pick the
interior fruit before itripens and throw
it away. Those that are left are of
the best quality, and may be packed in
boxes and sold at the highest prices. II
never pays to use boxes unless the
fruit is of the highest class.
More ola trees vitality is drawn mp
on to make the tiny seeds in an apple
than all of the flesh requires. Seed
growing is extremely exhausting. The
buds which develop into apples are
formed one year before the fruit APP
pears. The process Of thinning each
seasons crop relieves the tree of the
heaviest drain upon it, SO that it makes
buds for the next year. Then. there il
a crop every season. It is afact thatit
half the apples are removed from tree
after the natural June drop, there viii
be just as many bushels when the CROP
is harvested as there would have been
if they had been allowed to remain. The
difference comes in the increased size.
But to remove half the apples on . tres
IS more than the average farmer can
bring himself to do. And, thereby, he
loses many dollars Erchange.

W. F. Alexander for Auditor Of
State.

The friends of Mr.. William
Fontaine Alexander have been
for some time urging him to an
nounce his candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for the
Office of State Auditor.
A multiplicity of business in
terests have made it imperatively
necessary for him to see his way
clear to assume the Office, should
it be the pleasure of the Demo-
cracy of West Virginia in Con-
vention assembled, to bestow the
honor on worthy son of old
Jefferson.
He has, however, finally decid-
ed to announce his candidacy,
subject to the decision of the
Democratic party, for the success
of which, he has, since attaining
manhood worked in season and
out of season.
Surely it is time that the Gil
braltar of Democracy had recog-
milton at the hands of the party.
Jefferson has had no important
Office since the creation of the
State,and her claims will be read
lily conceded by all fairminded
party men
Apart from that, in the person
of w. F. Alexander, the man and
the Office would have indeed met,
for no one could be more peculiar
" we'll qualified for the position
of State Auditor than he,
Fontaine Alexander was not
born with a silver spoon in his
mouth. A common school course
and the reading of law while
clerking for Forrest W. Brown
were his educational equipment
for the battle of life. Elected
/ County Clerk hen+bare1y of age,
he filled the office so acceptab1y as
. to be reelected for a second term
without opposition, and could
doubtless have continued i'll that
Office had he not decided toAef1te1
the Insurance field, where he has
| attained eminent success-an ex-
q perienee of the greatest possible
value to a State Auditor who is
also ex oficio Commissioner OIL
i Insurance. His expert knowledge
] of land values has resulted in Mr.
Aiexander's appointment to The
Board of Equalization, and a,
/ Vice President of one of our mos
fiourishing banks lie has proved
{ himself an able fnancier.
Successful in ibis own business
affairs, trusted in tile Charge o.
] those of others, he would make al
ideal Auditor of State of Yves
Virginia. It's citizens will be en-
titled to congratulation should Ii,
receive the nomination.
