In spite of the spring weather and
the approaching close of the school
year, r. E. Tope, principal of the
high school, reports keen interest
and close application to work among
the majority of the students. This
good condition is evidenced by the
large honor roll which follows. 1t
is also gratifying to note that very
few boys have left the high school
this spring, and that several boys
whose records were poor or medium
near the beginning of the school
year are growing stronger as the
term is drawing to a close.

SHOW FAITH IN
RIO GRANDE HEAD

The Gould estate and other big in
terests behind the Missouri Pacific
Iron Mountain system have shown
the confidence they have in the ex-
ecutive ability of President BENJAMIN
F. Bush, also president of the Denver
& Rio Grande railroad. by voting to
furnish him with all the money he
needs for the rehabilitation of the
lines, in the hope of placing them
in the front rank of profitable roads.
says the Denver Republican.
At a meeting of the directors of
the system held in New York CITY
last Friday it was voted to execute
a blanket mortgage for $500. 100000.
This is the second largest that has
ever been created. by an American
railroad, it being exceeded only by
the Great Northern's, a year ago, for
100000.
The proceeds from the sale of
bonds to be issued under the deed
will be devoted to paying off all out
standing obligations and restoring
the property to good condition. The
rate of interest the bonds will bear
and the price at which they are to
be issued to- the public have not vet
been decided. These details are now
being worked out by President Bush
and Speyer & Co., the roads fiscal
agents.
The refinancing operations are re-
sarded in money circles as the out
come of the acceptancy of the presi-
deney of the Missouri Pacific by
Mr.. Bush. 1t was known at the
time that Mr. Bush agreed to take
hold of the property on the condi-
tion that he be given a free rein and
that sufficient money should be pro-
vided 10 restore the lines to good
physical condition.
A meeting of Denver & Rio Grande
directors was held in New York the
same day, but. according to President
Bush, no action of particular inter-
est to the public was taken.

Governor Woodrow Wilson has found | new champion in Senator cul. bsrson of Texas. who has frequently been mentioned as a possible noui. nee for the presidency by the Demo. cratic national convention at Balti- moro.
 In formal statement issued at Washington espousing the cause of the New Jersey executive, Senator Culberson says:
 Nov that 1t is practically settled there will be no primary for president, 1 have no hesitation In saying in re. ply to recent inquiries from Texas Democrats that 1 believe we should nominate Governor Wilson of New Jersey for president. While all may not agree with him as to some details. Governor Wilson is by birth, educa- ton and conviction a Democrat and . Democrat of the very best type. In the present emergency he would ap- ply the fundamental principles cf democracy to existing deplorable con. diti0ns in such manner as to restore to the people their government, di- vorce the government from privi- leged class and seek the prosperity of the whole country rather than fa- vored few.

because of his stand for popular gov ernment and because he let 1t Dc known that he did not desire the sup port of special interests, giving them to understand that they need expect no favor from him after election, have not injured him in public estimation nor sweryed him from his high pur- pose to serve the whole and not sim ply part of the people.
 "The latest criticism of him is that as governor of New Jersey he has made no effort to modify or repeal the laws of that state under which most of the great trusts have been organ ised. This charge is entirely baseless. for in his very first message to tho legislaturer Governor Wilson de- nounced the; existing incorporation laws of the state as having brought discredit upon 1t and urged such changes in them as would efIectually prevent the abuse of the privilege of incorporation. He also recommended that such scrutiny and regulation should not be confined to corporations seehfng charters but should be extend ed to those already in existence.
 A strono Candidate.
 "Governor Wilson, as our candidate for president. appeals to me particu- larly at this juncture in view of con ditions in the Republican party. Pres ident Taft will unquestionably be re- nominated by that party. His sympa- thy with the regular Republicans and his oppositicn to reforms advocated by the progressive Republicans are well known. While 1t may be admit ted that the leaders of the progrss- siyes win support the ticket nominat- ed by their party, yet this is not true of the rank and hle who As . rule are without political ambition and conse- uuentiy have no party loyalty to main tain. 10 greater extent than Any of the Democratic candidates for the nomination Governor Wilson would drav from this class of voters beGides holding every.
