DESERVING Farms
Rouses Farmers

Plano, ILL.,, Sept 26-Desertion of the
old homestead in the country in alarm
ing the farmers of the United States.
At today's session of the Farmers
National Congress, much of the time
Of the speakers was devoted to this
topic. Delegates from thirty-five
states sat about with knit brows, some
taking their feet and offering sugges-
tions, others discounting the ideas
thus broached and making new ones
which they thought better.
All were plainly worried One man
from the south almost ragged in the
ferver Of his eloquence. Bitterly he
attacked the plan to lift the horizon
Of the rural youngster and excitedly
declared that all his sons were daugll-
ters and he had only one of them
and his first requirement was that she
cook good meal. This was one side.
Nearly all the other speakers stuck
to it that the farm children were not
being given what they deserved, that
the rural schools in nearly all instan-
ces are inadequate, the instruction in
efficient and the general purpose of
helping the boy an dgirl beyond an
eighth grade education entirely too
feeble and insincere.

Santa Fe Plans j
San Diego Depot

San Diego, Sepa. 26-That the San
ia Fe roailroad will begin at once the
construction of an immense passenger
station in San Diego on site par
TALLY occupied at present by the out
ward bound freight station and north
of the present passenger station was
the positive statement today of 0. +.
Higginson, local freight agent of the
railroad.
According to Higginson's state
ment the new station will be erected
at cost of $1S5,OOO. This amount is
exclusive of the cost of putting in
tracks, switches, etc. The great struc-
ture will be, according to architects
plans already accepted, in mission
style and will be sufficiently spacious
for city of 100000.
No expense will be saved in making
the building of the very first class
from cellar to roof according to Hig-
ginson. Two large waiting rooms,
branching off from central foyer,
will afford ample and luxurious accom-
modations for all passengers.
Fourteen tracks will be built to ac-
commodate trains arriving at Che new
station. At present only five passen-
ger tracks reach the city.
The actual building of the struc-
ture will take up the better part OF
year. According to Freight Agent
Higginson, temporary structure will
be built at once to serve as an aut-
word bound freight house, or the pres
ent outward bound house will be NOV
ed to make room for the new passen-
ger station.
To allow sufficient room in the
yards for the building of the Is
tracks that will reach the new station
the Santa Fe has purchased the big
three-story warehouse of the Pioneer
Track Co. 40 yards north of the pres
ent outward bound freight house.
In addition to the purchase Of the
warehouse the railroad purchased
about two months ago awo blocks be-
tween B and D streets Immediately

Pacific Electric
off for San Diego

San Diego, Sept. 26-The intermit-
tent rumors that the Pacific Electric
Railway company is soon to extend its
hes from Santa Ana to San Diego, a
distance of about 80 miles, have re-
ceived a new impetus through local
events of the past week. A corps of
surveyors who have been working
along Highland avenue, near the
northern limits of Chula Vista, are re-
ported to have admitted to inquiring
residents that they were in the employ
of the Pacific Electric company and
that the line to be built to and through
San Diego would ultimately be extend
ed to Tia Juana. Highland avenue is
q continuation of the eastern boun-
dairy line of the city of San Diego,
running in a northwesterly and
southeasterly direction, and while
not thickly settled along it's route
at present, it offers comparatively
level outlet to the growing communi-
ties Of Paradise valley, National City,
Chula Vista, Otay and the San Vsidro
and Ala Juana sections
Since last Saturday deeds to prop
erty involving about 20 blocks in
Old Town have been filed for re-
cord in the name of NJ. Hall, the well
known realty man of this city. The
nominal grantors of most of this land
are D. C. Collier & Co., the San Diego
Realty Co., and the Palomar Invest
ment Co. All of the blocks are in the
immediate vicinity Of the Santa Fe and
the La Jolla railroads, the only prac-
ticable route to enter the city from the
north. Oen rumor IN circulation today
says the Salt Lake road is behind this
wholesale movement in real estate in
Old Town, but some. who claim to be
on the inside in railroad doings, assert
that it is but one link in the chain with
which the Pacific Electric is soon to
connect San Diego and Los Angeles,
and that that system, in view of the
near approach of the Panama Cali
fornia exposition and the opening Of
the Panama canal, is determined to be
IN shape to reap a large share of the
transportation business.

Engineers Lose
Power at Throttle

Omaha, Sept. 26-Sitting paralyzed
at the throttle of his engine, Con Nor
ris, veteran engineer of the Union Pa
cific railroad, brought a fast passen-
ger train through from Grand Island
| to Omaha without mishap. Today he
is in hospital and will never be able
to operate locomotive again. On
the run he operated his engine almost
mechanically with one arm, which re-
tanned some life and strength, the 9th
er being completely paralyzed.
Norris was all right when his train
left Grand Island. Somewhere be-
tween the latter point and Omaha he
suffered paralytic stroke. The train
was scheduled to make no stops, and
the fireman did not know of his mis-
hap until the train arrived in Omaha.
