glorious Fourth. Proud of your
freedom, proud of your country, we
would not suppress the enthusiasm
that wells up from the hearts, but
bid you shout; and yet, we would
kindly admOnish you not to be reck-

evince true manhood in daring to do
what is right and turning from all
that is wrong. We also trust that,
perhaps in quieter and less noisy
way our older readers will likewise
enjoy the occasion to the full extent
of their ability.

START MOVE FOR
 ANOTHER STATE

DURANGO. - Thirty-dve thousand dollars. it was announced today. has been subscribed to aid the move ment to form a new state from terri tory taken from Colorado, Arizona. New Mexico and Utah.
 These four state adioin and the peo- pie living about the point where an four touch believe they are being ne g'ected by an four commonwealths.
 The Durango Chamber Of Commerce vili therefore ask Congress this fall to form a new state. or at least n ter ritory, with Durango as the capital city.
 The movement was started by busi- ness men or Durango largely because they have been unable to get adequate railroad service to Denver. I has been taken up by all the residents Of the southwestern section of Colorado with the result that the subscription list of contributions towards the cause is growing from day to day.
 Present railway service from Dem yer to Durango is SO inadequate that it is necessary for travellers to go to Antonio. N. M.. and change there for a local train returning to Durango. The distance is 45t miles and the trip takes twenty-six hours.
 When members of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce investigated the district with a view to bringing the country in closer touch with Cali fornia. it was found that by building 1S5 miles of railroad between Farm ington ard Gallup. Durango would be closer to Los Angeles in time than it is to Denver. The California boost CTS further reported that Southwest ern Colorado was the richest unde- veloped empire they had ever seen.
 If Congress and the Colorado Leg isiature are unwilling to form a new state as proposed. the men behind the project win ask that ct least that section of the country be formed in- to Q new territory. They claim that the development of their district has been retarded by unwllingness on the part os Denver to cooperate with them.

PROPERTY OWNERS
 WANT BETTER TITLE

FAIRBANKS, June 14.-Garden Isl- and property owners held their sec ond meeting for the purpose of trying to perfect the titles to their land. j.. Harmon caskey was appointed as committee of one to take the matter up with the federal authorities. and he will place it at once before the lo- cal land office.
 The only way t is believed. by which tho titles can be perfected will be to organize a townsite of the lots that were formerly surveyed there. This, however, will not take in any new lots The original site of which a plat was made, consists of a little more than 20 acres, and when the old map can be located 1t will be placed on file with the land office.

witnesses are called, and then the en-
ployee has an opportunity to explain
his side of the case. After all have
been heard the board decides upon
the merits whether the charges have
been proved and also upon the penalty
to be inflicted.
1T is remarkable to note thai in the
fifty-six cases tried under this new
system since July, 1914. the decision
Of the board in each case has been
unanimous. T~wenty-four of the en-
ployees were dismissed from the SER
vice, eighteen were fined from one to
two weeks pay, were fined from
one to three days pay. two were sus-
pended, one was given leave of alb

treatment and four were ~reprimanded.

standpoint of discipline the results
we're entirely satisfactory.

obedience of orders and with having
failed to keep up the steam pressure
in the boiler which he was attending.
1t developed on the trial that the man
had for a time been acting rather
peculiarly and the board concluded
that the accused should have medical
examination and treatment rather
than punishment. Accordingly he was
given leave OF absence without pay in
order hat he might GOV his health
and return to work. Thus the man
and his family were saved from dis
grace and a new lease of life given to
one who was not responsible for his
failures.

Germany had two objects in build
ing the Anatolia and Bagdad railroad.
The one was to develop for her own
benefit all the latent wealth Of Asia
Minor and Of Mesopotamia. The
other was to secure access to the very
gates Of India.
She already saw ut the very outset
Of the projec' that Great Britain was
destined to remain her principal rival
in a political az we'll Ms in an an eco
nomic sense. She realized that the
possession Of India was the chief
source Of Great Britain's might and
grandeur and that therefore the most
effective means Of weakening Eng
land and Of RELOCATING her to the
rank Of a second or third class Power
would be to supplant her in India.
She believed that by establishing n
railroad through Anatolia and Meso-
potamia, via Mosul and Bagdad to the
head Of the Persian Gulf and wen
to the head Of the railroad system Of
India, h would he In Il position to
offer to Indian m and indus

venient trade route to Europe than
any Of the sea routes ut the disposal

politically md economically.
Imbued with these views and in
pursuance of these aims Germany
began by endeavoring to GUST every
form Of English enterprise In Asia
Minor and Mesopotamia. and 1t was
entirely owing to her hostility that
the splendid work inaugurated by Sir
William Willcocks in damming the
Euphrates and in restoring those
ancient canals and irrigation works
which in olden times rendered Meso-
potamia the richest granary Of the
then known world was abandoned.
All the energies Of the Kaiser's clever
agents at Constantinople were devoted
to converting Asia Minor and Meso-
potamia into just AZ much Of Il Ger
