We have in Colorado
A ranch called Alamo"
Pride OF the San Jaun Basin
Our tax receipts will show.
The secret OF its beauty
Can now be plainly seen
'Tls a little "nve-horse engine
We run with gasoline.
This engine pumps the water
For garden, house and barn
It churns the cream for Birdie
And launders for the farm
The derrick team grows lazy
Dame Nature holds the sway
The engine runs the "hoister"
That hoists and stacks the hay.
II chops the grain so nicely
II fans the grain that's sold
II doesn't kick the Junior"
And is worth It's weight in gold.

And while we brag about II
And how II grinds the crop,
We are waiting our turnout
And the bloomin' thing will stop.
Just when we want 20 pump OF churn
Or feed the Basin COW
The bucking engine takes q turn
And stops, we don't know how
The hired hand will sweat an "cuss"
And swear by the old Harry
II he'd a good sledge hammer,
The boss an cngine-'narry. "

al crop expo sition for Tulsa Is as
sured on a national scale The bus
mess men OF this city have organ
lied the Southwestern Soil Products
Exposition company. with a capital
OF $4,000.
Fifty men went out in committees
OF five. under the direction OF the
Commercial Club, and canvassed the
business district for seven hours At
the end OF that time the sale Of every
dollar OF the proposed stock issue
was certain.
The new company will buy 1870
acres OF land adjoining tho fair
grounds. All exposition buildings
now planned 10 house N Interna-
tlonal Dry Farming Congress and its
crop exhibits in October will be built
in permanent form. The special

cd as never before to the importance

The people OF Texas will regret that
the faculty OF the 4. & NJ College
found Il advisable 10 expel over 400
students for hazlng and insubordlna-

belongs 20 the dark ages. Self-re-
specting students can not afford 20
take any part In such violence. Our
educational institutions we're estab-
lished for the benefit OF boys and
girls In Texas who want an educa-
ton and who desire TO make use Of
their opportunities In securing II. II
was the desire OF those who estsb-

that every boy and girl should have
an opportunity for education AZ the

scrlbed by the president and faculty.

ONCE MORE
Randolph Land Cases Beat Amy
Attempt Yet Made at Per-
petuaI Motion.

Although there were FIVE cases on the
docket of the April term Of the Appellate
Court Of this district, no cases were tried
when the court, with Judges Grow, Dom
nelly and Kinder on the firing line con-
vened in this city last Tuesday.
The cases of York Ryal ct al. VS.. Ger
hard kessens ct al, better known as the
Randolph slave case, were continued
until June the parties not being ready
for trial, Attorneys for the plaintiffs
urged the appointment of a referee to
take the evidence and report his findings
OF law and fact TO the court, but on final
consideration the request was refused,
the court announcing that, notwith-
standing the large number of witnesses
TO be examined and the great length of
time that will necessarily be consumed
III hearing it, the case was of such inn
portance that the court felt il ought to
hear the evidence direct from the wit
nesses.
The case of Gale Frysinger VS.. Stella
Frysinger, being an appeal from the
Common Pleas Court on an alimony de-
cision, was continued.
In the case Of J. S. Riley VS.. Moser &
Frysinger ct al, the court overruled a
motion by the defendants to dismiss the
appeal, and granted the defendants leave
to file an amended answer.
The case of G.. II. Ward VS.. Fred Hell
by ct al, as Commissioners, was dis
missed at plaintiff s costs.

HOW UNCLE "MIT' GOT OUT

getting trapped in the linn of that

out of the rain, so in | crawls

closed up the hole where I'd crawled

scairt. l begun to think of all the
mean, low down things | had ever

no lighter, so the linn would raise
up and let me out, and the only other
opening was knot hole about two

100000 WON'T
MEET DEMANDS

Columbus, o.. April 10.-Though the
aggregate Of money received by the
Red Cross and Ohio flood relief COM
mission is above the 100000 mark,
Red Cross officials declare It will not
meet the demands. The total in the
hands of the Red Cross Is about ST.
100000, and that in the flood relief
commissions charge is a little more
than $543,000. Besides this Ohio flood
sufferers will have the $25O,OOO appro-
priated by the legislature.
Just what share of the Red Cross
funds will be expended in rehabilitat-
ing Ohio food sufferers will be deter
mined as the work progresses. The
Red Cross funds must be used to allie
viate distress not only in Ohio, but
also in Indiana and other states. The
greater share, no doubt, will be ex-
pended in Ohio, as this state was the
greatest sufferer.
The expenditure of the S250,000 is
wholly in the hands Of Governor Cox,
but he probably will act upon advice
Of the flood commission. While sep
arate accounts are kept of the Red
Cross and commission funds, the Red
Cross will have general supervision of
both. 1t is expected that first appro-
priations for general rehabilitation
will be made soon after the commits
sion has completed its survey of the
stricken communities.

MORE RESERVOIRS
AND NOT LESS To
SOLVE PROBLEM

Concluding an editorial on the
lessons TO be drawn from the re-
cent foods, the Toledo Blade
makes the following point. 1t is
in striking contrast with the hys-
terra exhibited by a great many
and well meaning
who are ready to drain
their cIsterns and their wells, so
fearful are they of the caIamitIes
that the reservoirs threaten.
The Blade says:
eff the curse of annual in
undatiOns Is TO be stayed at
all, the problem will have to
be dealt with somewhere near
the starting point of the floods.
The lower reaches of the Ohio,
Mississippi and Missouri Riv-
ers will have to be relieved of
the oceans of water that come
down upon them in the course
of a few weeks every spring.
The run-Of will have to be
slowed. Flood lakes will have
to be constructed. The pres
ent food, following the terri
BILE one of last year, makes it
impossible for the federal gov
ernment TO withhold it's aid i'm
the solution of the problem
any longer. After Panama,
that should be the next great
work of the engineers.

The most impressive single cut in
the bill is that by which raw wool
goes on the free list. II is now taxed
a duty OF about 80 per cent ad valor-
EN-. BY this single change the Demo
Gratis have reduced the revenues from
customs receipts about S14,000,000.
The bill also provides for ultimate
free sugar. II proposes an immediate
reduction of 20 per cent and the re.
moval Of the remaining duty in three
years. II eliminates the duties stand
ard as the test for sugar and provides
for a reduction in duties based on the
