SIMILARLY SITUATED.

1t may have occurred to many of
our citizens that many of the pros
porous mining sections of the great
state of Pennsylvania were once in
the same condition as is this section.
Some of those sections remained un-
developed for years until there were
provided the means of transporta-
tion Of the coal and other minerals.
Now that great state is one net work
of railroads and Pennsylvania is one
Of the most noted mining sections
in the world.
The development of the mines of
that state has caused it to become
most densely populated and is sur
passed in population only by the
great state of New York which is
the commercial center of the Amer
lean continent.
What the development of the many
mines has done for Pennsylvania the
development of the mines in this sec
tion may do for the San Juan. A
market for our coal will bring thou
sands of people into the San Juan
to engage in manufacturing and 9th
er pursuits incident to the growth
of country just as it has done in
the Keystone state.
It is up to the people interested
in this section to make it not only the
greatest coal producing but silver
and gold producing state as well, and
at the same time our agricultural
pursuits will compare favorably with
the best.

MRS. FABIAN MARTINEZ
ACCIDENTALLY SHOT.

Mrs. Fabian Martinez was acci-
dentally shot through the leg at a
dance in Ignacio about 2 o'clock yes
terday morning.
The social feature was of a variety
not infrequently held in that Sec
tion. Everything went well until
toward the early hours when some
of the participants became involved
in quarrel. One of the number
whose name is not known started to
pull a gun to emphasize his side of
the controversy. In his excitement
he accidentally discharged the wea-
pom shooting Mrs. Martinez through
the leg, shattering both bones, the
shot passing downward through her
knee cap.
Last night the injured woman was
placed on the train and brought to
this city, where she was carried at
once by ambulance to Mercy hospi-
tai. This morning she underwent an
operation at the hands of Drs. Lack
ey and Robbins, the outcome of
which is yet too early to predict, but
this afternoon she is resting as COM
Portable as could be expected.
AS soon as Sheriff McCluer learn

making thorough Investigation.

At the present time conflicting re-

more real fun for the crowd than
there has been in any other game
this year. While the score does not
at all give evidence of a good game,
as a matter of fact, the game was
with one or two innings well played
on both sides, and the innings that
brought in the four or five scores for
the visitors were most enjoyed by
the crowd, because of the many in
teresting incidents.
The chase the visitors had catching
two Durango boys between bases
amused the spectators. One was
caught after a hard fight for base
between second and third. The otn-
er who had come well down from
first to see how his comrade was
making it between second and third
found himself instantly set upon by
the whole band of visitors. In fact
they gathered in such numbers all
along the line from first to .seconu
that there was no chance for the Du-
range ball player to make his way
to second or back to first. Both Du-
range boys made a game fight for
a base but were simply overwhelmed
by the numbers who had gathered in
from the various positions to cap
ture our basemen who dared to leave
their bases without permission.
The final score was S-3 in favor Of
the visitors and the game was one
of the most interesting of the sea-

One of the most encouraging con-
ditions for Durango people is that

that, even in what is call the country

much used to such conditions and feel
well satisfied with a good healthy
growth. The reports from the east
are that business is much more quiet
there than here, but that is the u.s.

become accustomed to it.
Durango people should not desire
boom. They should not in any way
encourage one. A good healthy
growth is to be preferred. Booms
have their reactions generally. AT

OUR CLIMATE UNSURPASSED

Those who have travelled in all
parts of the United States and even
in foreign countries are very posi-
tive about the climate of this sec
tion being unsurpassed. There are
but few places in this country that
can stand for comparison with this
section in so far as climatic condi-
tions are concerned:
Our people do permit this climate
to be compared with that of south
ern California and while they do not
consider that climate equal in every
respect to this they do concede that
the climate there is excellent and
that it is we'll for a change that our
people spend few months II possi-
BILE along the coast of southern Cali
fornia.
AS it is now it is quite impracti-
cable for US to reach the coast. Were
it possible for US to reach the south
ern coast within a reasonable time
many Of our people would journey
there for months vacation. A few
of our people each year spend few
months on the coast and always re-
turn well pleased with the trip.
We do realize that those Califor-
mia people would be more than we'll
pleased to spend month or two
hunting and fishing in the mountains
Of the San Juan. They could find
no better place and no better sport.
Let US build railroad to the south.

ARCHBOLD. OF STANDARD OIL,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 23.-
John D. Archbold, pictured to the

the Standard Oil company had made

"Well, it made two contributions

one to Cornelius N. Bliss of $780,
900 and one to Senator Penrose OF

ACTIVE CAMPAIGN.

From the press reports it seems
that the progressive Republicans are
making very active campaign and
that they are securing large audien-
ces throughout the state. The Salad
Record says that Stewart was well
received there and was heartily
cheered when he scored the Repub-
lican machine.
Parks the assembly nominee puts
this question up to Stewart, Twill
you if defeated in the primaries sup
port the Republican ticket?" All the
answer that Stewart has made so far
is that he will cross the bridge when
he comes to it. He informed the
editor of the Salida Record that if
the nominations were properly made
he would not do anything against
the ticket nominated, but inferred
that it would be impossible under
the circumstances for him to take
the platform in the interest of Mr..
Taft.
From this declaration the Regular
Republicans claim that he has no
right to receive the support of Re-
pubficans and that he is at heart and
will be Roosevelt man and should
be in the Progressive prty.
Stewart claims on the other hand
that Taft is not the nomine of the
Republican party and that Roose-
vel is at heart the choice Of the Re-
publicans and that they have right
to support him under the name Re-

ity is ample railroad facilities with

1t is served at present by one mar
row gauge railroad. Its main town is
twenty-three hours ride from Denver,
and over this long, continuous route
it must receive and ship all its sup
plies and find a market for its pro-
ducts. Denver and Pueblo now pos
sess the trade Of that territory by
virtue of their monopoly. But the
day has come when that advantage
will be lost unless something is done
to save that which we now have and
to get our share Of what the future
holds in store.
The business interests of the San
Juan have offered to take their trade
away from Denver and Pueblo and
give it to Los Angeles if the latter
will promote broad-gauge outlet to
the coast. They were not in a hurry
to turn their backs on their natural
sources of supply. They came to
Denver one hundred strong and beg
ged and pleaded for our help. They
pointed how city could be brought
within sixteen hours of Durango
through the broad gauging of its
one road and the construction of cut
offs, and how Pueblo could have ar
equally as good advantage. When
the business men of the San Juan
saw that no help was coming from
Denver they turned their eyes to the
west.-Denver Times.

GENERALLY MAKES BAD GUESS

Colonel Henry Watterson says
Wilson is sure of election although
ne calls Wilson "His Satanic Majes-
ty." Waterson wants to be with the
Democrats but he was for Clark.
Early in the campaign he wanted to
be for the New Jersey man but was
informed that his support was not
desired in the nominating campaign.
This made the Kentucky newspaper
man and politician ferocious. He
went after Wilson like tiger and
did all he could to nominate Clark.
He says now that Wilson will
have les sthan 80 votes in the cleo
toral college and there there is no
hope for any other candidate. He
evidently feels that what he said
before the convention had no effect
on the American people. He said
then that Wilson would not be nomi-
mated and that if he were nominated
he would easily be defeated in No
vember.
When considering the prediction
of the Louisville Courier Journal ed.
itor it is well to remember that his
predictions have failed in more in.

big newspaper man in this country
And that he has supported more los

DECISION OF JUDGE RIDDLE.

District Judge Riddle has ordered
Secretary of State Pearce to resub-
nit the initiative and referendum
amendment to the vote of the people
at the coming elecion IN November.
He says that the amendment has
never been legally passed and chat
He held that the measure was not
published for four consecutive weeks
with the session laws prior to the
biennial election in 1910 as by law
required.
Attorney General Griffith has de-
cided to take an appeal to the state
supreme court. Should the high court
affirm Judge Riddles decision then
the 10 bills, initiated by petition and
field with the secretary of state, will
not be given a place on the ballot.
The object of having the amend
ment declared invalid at this time is
to save the state the expense of pub
fishing these proposed amendments,
which will cost the state some $780,
900.
One w. H. Tate of Pueblo has
brought the suit and his attorney. N
Walter Dixon, and the attorney gen.
eral are agreed that the amendment
was not published in the session
laws, but the attorney general in
sists that this publication is not nee
essary where the people voted on the
measure. He declares the claim 70
be only technical one and should
have no force in this case.
The following bills among others
will be refused a place on the bai-
lot if the supreme court affirms the
decision of Judge Riddle;
State wide prohibition of the liquor
traffic.
Recall of certain court decisions.
Recall of elective officials, includ-
ing judges.

DENVER SHOULD WAKE UP.

If the people of Denver were fully
awake to the significance of the
movement in Los Angeles to finance
railroad connection between the
San Juan valley and the Southern
Pacific or the Santa Fe roads, they
should lose no time in calling upon
their official representatives at the
city hall and upon the chamber of
commerce and other civic bodies to
head off Immediately this enterprise,
which is bound to take business away
from this city and turn it over to
pacific coast towns.
The residents of the San Juan
valley are clammoring for a broad

can't, they will accept it at the hands
