THOUSANDS OF PILGRIMS
 SEEK CURE AT LOJRDES

Lourdes, France, July 24-The attendance at the I.ucharists con- gress of the. Catholic church, which has been in session here since July p, was increased today by the ar rival of thousands Of individual pilgrims from all parts of the world.
 Their advent is threatening com pIicatious with the hotel keepers. When the project ol 8 Eucharist congress in conucc.Cu with the tweuty-rtlth anniversary Of the shrine Of Our Lady of Lourjes was first broocbed last ylu, iL was nearly wrecked by the refusal of the hoteI-kcepcrs here Co grant prices necessary for such au assembIago. They were finally brought into line however, and, us long as the congress was only attended by tue G,O0O delegates they aI.dcd by their promises. The arrival today Of so many pilgrims, however, is calling forth declarations on the part of the bouifaces that they cannot main- tain the low prices. as the pilgrims coming sow should have come a month later, at which time the an- nuaI pilgrimage to I.ourdcs always take place The pilgrims are being obliged today to sa.s lodging at Tarbes. Pau and other nearby towns. The hotel keepers say they are losing business. THe pilgrims are largely invaIids from all parts Of the world, here in the hope of miraculous cure.
 The congress today followed the general program as established yes terday.. simultaneous meetings were held this morning in 8 dozen different languages, the proceedings of each being identical. In addi- ton, sermons were delivered in the open air in a number of different languages.

wide democratic primaries for the nomination of governor, member of the legislature and Otter state Of- ficers. Thomas II. Bell of Houston was the prohibition candidate for nomination for governor and Jas. E. Ferguson of Temple was backed by the "wet" forces.
 The fight was eYsu carried to the contests for nomination to the legislature, because it will be up to the Legislature In 1915 to de- eide whether the people shall have another chance to vote for or against statewide prohibition. At the very top of the ballots in the primaries today the voters were giY- en an opportunity to vote for or against "the submission of 8 con- stitutiouaI amendment prohibiting within this state he manufacture, sale. exchange and interstate ship meut of intoxicating liquors, except for medical and sacrameDtal purposes Even # the drys nominate Bell the vets have hopes of defeating submission by controlling the next legislature. The referendum on the submission question taken today was intended only as a guide to the democratic leaders who will draft d state platform on August 11th.
 The nomination of a democratic for governor is equivalent to election in Texas. The bitter est personalities marked the cam paign between Bell and Ferguson. Besides the prohibition issue the promises of the candidates have dealt with land rents, educational appropriation, prison reform. and agricultural problems. A congress mau-at large was to be nominated today from among eleven candi- dates.

 or the new placer strike which was made about four miles north of Pleasant camp recently. and to which he paid a visit a couple of weeks age in company with Mir. Hugh MOlyReaux, the British Col umbla road commissioner, he has much of interest to say, but thinks it too sOon to give out anything for publication, as not enough work has yet been done to verify what Ls nevertheless believed to be true.
 Before he left Pleasant Camp Mir, Scull said that word had been brought in of rich free milling quartz strike about Z8 miles west of therv, the news of which had caused considerable excitement and quite a number of people had gone oyer to make lOCatiosn.
 He sayB the road from Wells to Pleasant Camp, on this side of the boundary, Is in a de- plOrable condition and that t is next to impossible for & man to get over it on fooJ. He thinks that some steps should be immediately taken by the Alaska road commission to Improve the travelling facilities, for with com paratlvely small expeAse the way could be opened for the development of mineral wealth tha: will at some time prove of astonishing magnitude to the uninformed.

RESTOCKING THE RANGES

We note that great many cattle
mostly COWS, art being shipped 10
the Western ranges. to be placed for
breeding purposes. For the past few
years the grass has been short all
over the West, and ranchmen could
not carry their herds through the
year Tor that reason. and. as re-
suit, the plains country was fast be
coming cowless The return of better
range conditions. however, and the
splendid outlook for the price Of cat
tie to remain high has encouraged
the stock raisers TO restock their
ranges. and make the South Plains
the breeding ground for beef cattle.
