MORE RAILROAD TALK.

Jay Turley was an arrival last
evening from Denver, and left with
J. Hesler of Colorado Springs, and
Frank Gallup of Rinconada, N. M, for
Aztec, where he will chaperon the two
latter on a trip through San Juan
county. While in Denver, Mr.. Turley
accidentally ran across representa-
tive Of German capital, who recently
spent couple of weeks investigating
conditions in the San Juan, and gath
ering data as to the advisability of
financing and building a railroad from
Durango south to the coast.
The said representative was travel
ing incognito, and even after his iden-
tity was discovered would give moth
ing out. "Straws show which way
the wind blows" however, and, it may
be, we shall have a new railroad soon
er than we think.

WAR VESSEL
Goes to West Coast Of
MexiCo--Another will
GO to Gulf

MEXICO CITY, April 27.-A Brit
ish war vessel is on the way to the
Mexico west coast to afford refuge
for subjects of great Britain. This
information could be had at the Brit
ish legation but the minister has been
advised that another warship will be
sent to the gulf coast for like pur-
pose. In both cases the action is
the result of an understanding be-
tween the European powers with the
probability that other nations having
interests in Mexico or citizens in con-
siderable number will follow such.
Persons, arriving here from the 18TH
mus of Tehuantepec, brought infor-
nation Of various bands Of insurrectos
whose depredations along the line Of
the American railway have put
that line practically out of commits
sion. Federal troops are in control
of the larger towns but their efforts
to rebuild bridges and repair railways
is balled up by the rebels who undo
the work.

ODD FELLOWS HOLD
SUCCESSFUL SESSION
Musical Program and Banquet Enjoyed at Wood
men Hall Enjoyed by Large Numbers
RebekahS Join in Commemorating

The San Juan Odd Fellows asso-
citation concluded the commemoration
exercises on account of the ninety
third annivei sary of Odd Fellowship
in America last night at the Red
Men hall by an excellent program.
Some two hundred visitors from the
neighboring lodges of Odd Fellows
and Rebekahs had come to Durango to
join the Durango members in the Gel
ebration of the event. The association
attended to its annual business affairs
by selecting the next meeting place as
Mancos, and the various officers as
follows:
President-Dan Mayer of Mancos.
Vice President-A. L.. Thompson of
Pagosa Springs.
Secretary-A. J. Ames of Mancos.
Treasurer-Mrs. Gus Honaker of
Mancos
Trustees-For three years, Jacob G.
Wilson of Durango; two years, r.
r. Smith of Cortez; one year, Mrs. /.
NJ. Jarvis of Pennington.
The association decided by vote to
admit the Rebekah lodges of Farm
ington, Aztec, Mancos and Durango
to the association. This was consid-
cred by all taking part to be most
popular decision and undoubtedly will
have much to do in keeping up the
enthusiasm manifested at this ami
versary meeting.
After this meeting had concluded
the business of the association there
were given several musical numbers
by the orchestra the members of which
were Walter Cooke violin; Jesse
Hooker, trombone; Dayton Warner,
cornet, and Miss Hooker, piano. This
was one of the most pleasing parts
of the entire program, The hall room
was filled to the overflowing with
HAPPY and considerate men, women
and children.
After the musical part of the pro
gram had been concluded the mem
bers repaired to the banquet hall,
where two rows of tables extended the
entire length of the building. On
these tables were spread most sump-
tuous feast, fit for just such an oc-
casion. 1t would be difficult to i'm
prove upon the menu, consisting of
chicken, ham, saratoga chips, Waldorf
salad, roast leg of veal, currant jelly,
olives, pickles, hot house radishes, po-
tato salad, waters, assorted cakes,
coffee, lemonade and other good
things to eat. Not only does the ban
quet deserve particular mention, but
also those who so thoughtfully and
capably prepared this feast as well
as those who so skilfully served it.
1t was in every way huge success,
and the association may well feel
proud of the efficiency of those chosen
to perform these various duties.
When all had been served and the
appetites completely satisfied, then
began the intellectual feast. Mayor
Hood was chosen as the toast master

ADDRESSES
Five Tholisand Persons
and Huis Defiance
at Roosevelt

Western Press
NEWARK, n j., April 27.-"I did
not seek this. am forced against
the wall with ny back to it and | am
bound if have any manhood at all
in me to fight.f
His voice bteaking with passion,
perspiration dipping down his face
over his wilted collar, President Taft
hurled this apology, challenge and de
iiance at THEODORE Roosevelt last
night before. 5000 persons in the
First Regimera armory.
Compressinelall his Massachusetts
addresses into tne driving speech, the
president resuHted his attack upon his
Warwick with s>ll the fury of man
fighting in, the 'last ditch.
He bluntly charged Roosevelt with
seeking to make himself a dictator,
paving the way TO usurp the presi-
dency for life.
A social revolution, he declared, is
the only excuss that can be offered
by those who aekito elect Roosevelt
to third terms
with his Hanging personality"
said the president. "his intense ma
ture, his powsfIoysr audiences, Theo-
dore Roosevelt would not have any
difficulty in presenting, every four
years, necesdty which would make
him president fbr the rest of his life."
Those who hAvc followed the presi
dent through the breakers of his pres
idency say he's wss never before SO
vehement. He threw off all restraint
and by his shAsr warlike spirit had
for the crowd lmost part with him,
although many fheered for Teddy.
The pres1deTk has come to the re-
alization that he is at the crisis of
his contest for denomination.
The news he received in Massachu-
sets is none too favorable. He has
only bare chance there. Wherefore
the sudden change of plan announced
Friday and following his address in
Philadelphia last night he will make
hurried trip to Washington, arriving
there Sunday morning, leaving again
in the afternoon for final tour of the
Bay state on Monday. Lawrence,
Lowell, Brockton, Fall River and other
manufacturing towns will be covered.
There is bare chance that before
the day is out Taft and Roosevelt
may actually meet face to face, since
both are scheduled to speak in the
same towns on Monday.

DENVER AND THE
SAN JUAN BASIN

Standard gauging the Denver & Rio
Grande railway from Alamosa to the
San Juan basin and extending its lines
into its territory further southwest, is
of as vital interest to Denver as to
the San Juan basin or the San Luis
valley. Denver is as deeply interested
in as direct route to the San Juan
basin as either that section or the San
Luis valley.
Denver's trade in the southwest will
be best protected and facilitated by
the most direct route, and Pacific
coast connection for the Denver & Rio
Grande, via the San Juan basin, on
through New Mexico and Arizona, will
at once be larger profit winner than
is the Western Pacific today, If not
for all time to come. Every mile
which the Rio Grande would traverse,
south of the snow line, is through a
country wonderfully rich in resources,
and each mile will contribute more to
railway traffic than the country
through which the Western Pacific
passes.
Denver cannot afford to lose mo-
ment of opportunity to cooperate
with the towns and communities along
the present route of the Rio Grande
into the San Juan basin and further
removed southwest.
When the Rio Grande has deter
mined to standard gauge to the south
west, there may be some changing OF
the present route. There appears to
have been question in the Rio Grande
mind for a long time as to the advisa-
bility of securing q route which will
avoid the. climb over the Conejos
range, and should this be decided
upon, it is likely that the route chosen
will be from Antonito or near there,
on the present line to Santa Fe, south
and southwest. going around the Con-

and it is well to say that he excelled
as a master Of toasts. He called upon
Rev. j. Fred Jenkins to give toast
to the Rebekahs which he did in n
most most appropriate and pleasing
manner. Then the Rev. Mr.. Gunby
was called to give toast on the
virtues of Odd Fellowship which duty
he performed in most entertaining
way. DR.. A. l.. Thompson was called
upon for an address which was most
fitting for such an occasion. Then
the toast master called on Lyman /.
Henry for few remarks who said,
among many other good things, that
it was well that the members get to-
gether on such occasions for the COM
memoration of the growth of the or
der and its achievements. After which
Toastmaster Hood asked the audience
to rise and for one whole minute, with
bowed heads, do reverence to the ill
fated on the steamer Titanic. This
was most appropriate service and
made a lasting impression.
After the conclusion of the meet
ing in the banquet hail Mayor Hood
announced that the assembly would
march to the Red Men hall, where a
public meeting was held and the fol-
low program was rendered.:
"Playmates" Lincoln), by the or
chestIa; prayer by Rev. Mr.. Jenkins;
address of welcome by Mayor Hood;
solo, "Silver Threads Among the
Gold" by W. NJ. Marsh; "Blushing
Bride tLaurendeau), by the orches-
ira; address on the principles of Odd
Fellowship by Lyman l. Henry, past
grand master of Colorado; solo (se-
lected) by John Monroe; reading, with
musical accompaniment (selected) by
Minnie Levey; "Mysterious Rag"
(Snyder) by the orchestra; presenta-
ton of Veteran Jewels by Lyman 7.
Henry; "Alexander's Rag Time Band"
(Snyder) by the orchestra; and the
benediction by the Rev. Mr.. Gunby.
The last section of the session of
the association in the Red Men hall
was the crowning event. The address
of the speaker of the evening and the
bestowing of the Veteran Jewels to
our honored townsmen, Wesley A.
Helm and Fred Steineger, was wit
messed by many hundreds of people
and the occasion will long be remem-
bered as one of the noblest work of
Odd Fellowship.
The following committees were in
charge of the meeting of the asso-
citation:

again with the present San Juan mar
row gauge route at or near to Chama
station.
1t is unlikely that the Rio Graade
would ever brave the undertaking to
build through Canon Largo, on the
San Juan river, where every few years
tn, canon is washed away, the mole
being washed away next year. 1t is
vastly more probably that the per.
rlarent standard gauge route would
be north of the San Juan to keep the
Durango and tributary touch, reaching
Loth north and south, for the maui
of Il country fifty miles north and
south. The Rio Grande already has n
standard gauge line of fifty miles
from Durango south to Pennington,
N. NJ, which will some day be link
in the Denver to the Pacific through
line, away from the SHOWS of winter,
with a minimum grade from the Sun
Luis valley to the coast.
Denver will probably enjoy a
through route, standard gauge, to
Santa Fe, within year or so, via
the Rio Grande, from Blanca through
the Costilla and Taos valleys, but De l.
yer is not looking much for whole
sale trade in Santa Fe territory whore
ether railroads are doing as much
to build Santa Fe trade as Dauser's
! Dads are doing to build her trade.
Denver and Pueblo must look TO the
Rio Grande for the trade of the San
Juan basin and further southwes7,
and must stand with these southwegt
sections in shaping policies mutually
beneficial to all sections along great
railway route through one of the
greatest countries on earth,-Alamosa

HAVE ALL WE NEED.

A. B. Teal, tax agent for the A. s.
q X. company came "a over taA Soutf-
ern last night and departed for Sill
verton this morning. 1t looks as II
the weather is cutting up rough in
a number of places throughout the
state. In Leadville, there was snow;
more of it in Ouray; still showing at
Telluride; at Montrose the wind was
blowing ninety miles an hour; and in
Durango the weather had reached that
stage we call threatening.
1t was quite clear that Mr.. Teal
had brought the storm with him and
not knowing what else to do, he said
he would take 1t along to Silverton
with him this morning. We made him
promise to leave it there. They have
SO much weather in Silyerton that a
little more or less will not matter.
They will probably never know the
difference.
