San Juan Co.
Dry As The
Sahara Desert

Pennington, N. NJ, Mar. a.
San Juan county has gone irrevoc-
ably, absolutely and entirely dry,
and the man with thirst will
hereafter find nothing but plenty
OF pure, sparkling water with which
to slake it. In yesterdays local
option election, nine out OF eleven
precincts gave 354 for prohibition
to Io7 against, and the two pre-
cincts not heard from are the small
est in the county, SO they cannot
affect the result. The incorporat-
ed towns of Pennington and Aztec
previously voted dry. Pennington
10 to 666n October, and Aztec "a
10 a in December.
This makes every corner Of the
county dry as the Sahara desert so
far as booze is concerned. The
prohibitionists having been sup
ported by over three to one, pro-
pose to enforce all anti-liquor laws
to the full exclusion OF the traffic
in this county.

The cold spring is by a sawmill.
1t comes up in a little fountain.
Some OF the men dug down rather
deep and put in a pipe, but the
pipe did not last long; because the
sulphur water ate it up.
Every summer some of the Ital-
ian people come over and get bot
ties OF water and take home. When
they first taste the water they say
it tastes like rotten eggs, but after
they drink it a while they say it
tastes like beer.
They ship out hundreds OF bot
ties Of sulphur water every year.
The hot spring is at the east end
OF town. The Indians say it used
to be a volcano and after the erup-
tion it left a hot spring that boils
up out OF the ground. One can
see the bubbles as it boils. There
is lava all around the place. The
ground is so hard with lava that
the people can't dig the ground up
We have learned that hot springs
are caused from the recent geologi-
cal age of the country.

SHOPS NOT TO
BE YET REMOVED
Deteriorating Material Is All That Is
Removed; Shops viii Remain;
Road To Extend West.

Although it has not been given
out by the officials of the Santa Fe,
it is practically an assured fact
thar the shops will not be removed
from Cimarron, as has been per-
sistently rumored since last Au-
gust, when the Rocky Mountain
Railway was taken over by the
Santa Fe.
This and other welcome inferma-
ton comes from authorities of the
Santa Fe system direct from the
vice president of the system.
Several reasons we're given why
the shops will not be removed, and
among them are, that the Ute
Park Des Moines division does not
come under the head or jurisdic-
ton of the La Junta- Ration divi-
sion, but under the Amarillo divi-
sion. Also that the road will be
extended on to Taos and either
Gallup, or Santa Fe, as soon as the
necessary funds can be secured.
The object in extending the road
west, is to tap the rich mining
country in the mountains west Of
here and to get closer to the timber
owned bv the company on the Rio
Grande river.
With this extension the division
will be about I7o miles long and
it can be easily comprehended that
shops are a vital necessity. At
the present the repair work is being
temporarily done in the shops at
Ration and charged up to the ANA
rillo division.
The removal of all loose mater
ial in the local yards was done
from an economy point OF view and
to save The deterioration oil its val
ues. Despite persistent rumors,
the shops have not been hsmpered
with from the time the last pound
Of steam was exhausted.

Mill Owners
Bar Buttons
From Property

Everett, Wash, March 2. Sew
en- of the largest lumber mills in
Everett, operating under an agree
ment, shut down last night, to re-
open Wednesday, under new con-
ditions affecting their employees.
1t is the pupose OF the mill own
ers when they resume operations
to bar from their premises all un-
ion \ icers, organizers, walking
delegates or any man wearing a
union button,
In statement announcing the
shutdown, the mill owners said
that the change in policy did not
mean that they would discriminate
against any employe because he
had joined a union. but they re-
served the right to refuse to re-em-
ploy any worker who had taken an
active part in organizing the un-
ions.
Wages and working conditions
will not be changed, the mill own
ers say. Several hundred men are
employed at the mills.

The people Of Madagascar, India,

It must be flooded with water

pIacee are the best for igrowing

When ploughing the rice men
aud buffaloes must wade in mud
knee deep. In some places in the
world the water must be forced up

Even in harvest time, the work.
men must wade mud, but nothing
is too much trouble TO insure a

WILL RESIST
COMMISSION
j. /. AAMON SAYS HE is NOT OP.
GRATING AN lNTERuR8AN. TO
RESIST JOINER ORDER.

That j. l.. Hamon, general manager
of the Oklahoma New Mexico 4 Pa
cifc railway company will appeal
from the ruling of the corporation
commission is practically certain. The
comm.ssion\ has ordered the railway
company to construct a switch at
Joiner City for the convenience OF
the people of that town as well as
the oil men who desire to unload ma
chinery there on account of its proN-
unity to the oil fields. Mr.. Hamon
stated that he was not operating an
interurban but further than that he
did not commit himself when asked
what he would do in the matter OF
the ruling of the commission. That he
is not operating an interurban is Ia
ken To mean that he is not making
stops at other than at designated de-
pots located by the company itself
and at distances usually made by such
companies, Wnlcn are from elSht 10
ten miles apart. Joiner is from three
to three and a-half miles from vii
son, the nearest station to the east
which is now the terminus of the
road, and it is clearly the intention OF
Mr. Hamon to resist the order of the
commission.
Henry f. Asp of Oklahoma City,
counsel for the road, who was here
yesterday, in a way confirmed the
statement that the road would not
build a switch at Joiner until the
company was forced to do so, after
stubbornly resisting the order of the
commission. Mr. Asp takes the or
der as an opening wedge to force the
company to build a depot there and
its proximity to Wilson and TO the
proposed town of Ringing would
make such a depot Improbable to the
railway company.

Status of Woman IN Oklahoma.

There are states in the American
union which make greater preten-
sions than does Oklahoma to liber-
ality in the political recognition OF
women, but it is only fair to say,
considering everything, there are
few states that in ordinary prac-
tice give more, relatively of course,
to the disfranchised sex. Oklahoma
is not a suffrage state. It's consti-
tuition, although one of the latest to
be adopted does not permit women
to vote. Yet it is fact that wom-
en- hold office in the state. 1t has
a woman commissioner OF chart
ties; one county has a woman COM
missioner of deeds, AMI the state
has no less than fourteen women
county superintendent.
When Oklahoma adopted its con-
stitution it was criticized for in
cooperating in its organic law many
radical provisions. Strange to say,
one srantinf equal suffrage to Wom-
en- was not among them. Judging
from the satisfaction which it now
seems to have in the service oi
women officeholders, it is to be pre-
sumed that if the constitution were
to be adopted today the right Of wo-
men to vote would be incorporates
in that instrument
But as matters stand, woman'E
status in Oklahoma is creditable tC
her and to the state. Here IS &
case where that whilh vas re-
fused as a political privilege IS con
ceded as right Where woman
has demonstrated her ability t.
fill office without the vote, It can
not be long before she shall 5t

ROYAL ROW OVER MANUEL.
Title Of Deposed Monarch Causes A
Fresh Break in England.

fTeSh BREAK IN Cn9Idhu'
London, Jan. 21.-Another little diff
ference between buckingham palace,
over which Queen Mary resides, and
Marlborough house, of which Queen
Mother Alexandra is mistress, has
arisen, this time over the titles by
which the deposed King Manuel of
Portugal and his bride are to be
known officially.
When the eXiled king and his bride
were entertained by the Queen Moth
er recently, the Court Circular, issued
from Marlborough house described
them as King Manuel and Queen Au-
gusta Victoria" This was interpreted
as a sign that King George had Off
cially sanctioned this description of
the royal couple and the press follow
ing as it invariably does the fashion
set by royalty, published it as fact.
An official denial was quickly forth
coming and it was announced that
King George had decided that the eX-
king and his wife were to be known
and referred to only as Dom Manuel
and Dona Augusta Victoria. AS the
kings decision is binding on all the
members of his family, including his
mother, it is probable that any future
reference in the Court Circular, even
those emanating from Marlborough
house will thus refer to the young
couple.
In circles that side with the Queen
Mother in her little differences with
Queen Mary, it is said that the kings
decision was dictated by Queen Mary,
who thus emphasized that She, and
not Queen Alexandra is now the ar
bitter in matters of this kind.
