IRISH REPUBLICAN
 AR MY ENFORCING BELFAST BOYCOTT.

DUBLIN, May 5.--The boycott against Belfast by the rest of Ire land, officially ordered by the heads of Sim Fein, is being enforced with all the power of the Irish Republi- can Army, and daily reports are re- continue to do business with Bel fast.
 The fact that all this pressure is necessary shows unwillingness on the part of traders to sever their relations with Belfast, which does an extensive and varied business with the most distant Nationalist dis tricts. The bread supply of many of the towns in ,Connaught is baked in Belfast and delivered daily by train Several consignments have been followed up and destroyed
 In some of the towns as far away as the County of Clare the local trad CTS are served from Belfast, and many of them have; been warned against disobeying the Sim Fein or der. At railway stations in that county Belfast goods have been de- stroyed in the stores.
 It is impossible to obtain accu- rate information as to how far the boycott has proved efficient Bel fast citizens admit it is an embar- rassment but not very serious at tack son their trade. Sim Feiners insist that it will cripple Belfast
 There are many kinds of trade which Dublin Acould do as conven- iently for the rest of the country as Belfast. The boycott affords Dublin business men a chance to capture some of this extensive trade, but SO far apparently it has not appealed to them as a business proposition, and there is no apparent sign that capital is being invested on the prospect

BIG SEARCHLIGHT 1. TO THROW BEAMS IN 24 C0U TIES
Northern California 10 Have Light Visible for Nearly
 two Hundred Miles.

SAN FRANCISCO. May ,. - The campaign slogan of several joint promotion interests. tThrpw Light on Northern California; is to be Asomething more than figure of speech when these interests install a 800 ,000000 -candlepower b m searohlight on Mount Tampalais, in the near future.
 The beam will be visible in at least twentyfour counties, in the eX- pectation Of the engineers of the General Electric Company, who are installing the light. Unobstructed, it should be seen from the tip of Mount Shasta, 1S5 miles to the North. Thus. when swung around, it could be seen at Carson City, Ne. vada, Cn the East and Fresno and Pasa RObles, to the South, were there no typographical barriers.
 The light was one of three built by the company at Schnectady, N Y. for the New York harbor defenses during the war. Two were installed but the war ended before the third was completed, and it was turned over to the Northern California pro motion interests. The cost of the light including installation, is ap- proximately $20.000.
 ' f..;. Wide Range of Light
 On account of it's size, it will not. be found feasible to swing the light as freely as a smaller light It will be able to make complete circle, however. and throw it's beams forty degrees below horizontal. Un- fer government orders, there must be no regularity to the scintilla- lions as that would involve the haz- ard of some ship at sea mistaking the light for that of light house
 current of electricity equal to thirty horsepower will be necessary to keep the beacon going at full strength. As the light weighs over two tons, special appartus must be installed to swing it about. By use of multiple colored discs it is hoped l to create strange effects when the light plays on passing clouds of fog banks.
 A feature of the installation which | engineers hope to effect will be the carrying of the light from Mill Val i ley, at the foot of the mountain. to the top, fully lighted, so the beacon may be seen for miles around while on its way to it's resting place.
 
 In comparative light strength, it is 6, 250 times more powerful than Lhe marine light on Alcatraz Island the military prison of San Fran cisco Bay. The Alcatraz light is 30000 candlepower and is said to be one of the most powerful on the coast On clear night unaffected by refractory conditions that some times obtain in atmosphere near the coast the Tampalpais light will enable person to read book with ease ten miles distant, the instali- ing engineers say
 The lens alone is five feet in diameter. while the outer diameter of the barrel of the light is six and one.half feet. The top of the fight will be ten feet from the bot tom of the emplacement.

THE NEW PASSENGER STATION

Saint Paul says we are saved by
hope-that is to say, we can secure
what we are looking for by hope. A
reasonable declaration we think.
Another Wiseacre says there is
more happiness in anticipation than
in possession; that is a conundrum
that seems to travel upon finance and
without further ado we will turn it
over to our bankers, and if they con-
clude after due deliberation to empty
their c04fers upon the rest of US, that
is their lookout
Now, we are coming to the point,
so be patient
The u P. folks hesitate They don't
want to be showed over the precipice
without a warning They wish to de-
fer till business has achieved normal
cy; wait till the new President is in
augurated, they say; till the ex-
Kaiser has completed his cord of
wood, and sausages are sixteen to
one, that is, sixteen of bovine scraps
to one of pork.
But how long must we remain in
the purgatory of probation? We are
having a surfeit of the elixir of antic-
ipation, under our old friend, Mr.
Harry Freese, who pays US regular
professional visits, feels our pulse,
quiets our anticipatory fears and
then takes the elevator and runs up to
the roof-story of the sky-scraper, puts
some wish bones over the door and
peers out under his hand over the
landscape to see if he can discover
men working on the grade Of his road.
Hays is fond of Mr.. Freese because
he is an optimist, and we intend to
make him president of his road when
it is completed and shall supply all
his friends-and they are legion
with free pass during good behav-
ior
As for the new passenger station,
in setting of blue grass, floral dis
play and shade trees after the mod
ern method, we think it about time
we had a ground hog grip on it, and
by way of little of the salye of an
ticipation, the u P. folks should send
along their landscape gardener to plot
the ground, set out the shade trees,
and accomplish all the other neces-
sary fundamentals for a first class
passenger station. Do it now!-Conl-
municated.

The Golden Belt Railroad

Harry Freese tells US that the final
answers to the Questionairre of the
porposed Golden Belt Railroad have
been sent to the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Washington, with the
required eleven copies, and it is now
in their hands for final decision. The
appeal says:
Trusting you will give our papers
a careful consideration and that they
viii meet with your approval and you
will grant to the wheat farmers in
this section this relief We respectt-
fully ask that you grant this permis-
sion and let the farmers of this Gold
en- Wheat Belt feel they have the en-
couragement of their Government to
remain tillers of the soil. They have
from twenty to thirty years been
hauling their wheat to he present rail
roads from six to twenty miles and
they ask that they now may have a
chance to have an elevator within
sight of their farm, two to five miles,
and can ship their wheat to the Gulf
pors as our Government asks.
''That the Charter is ready and will
be sent in with the money within
twenty-four hours from receipt of
your permission to build"
The ten pages of answers were pre-
pared by the K. c. attorney of the
Company, are very explicit and con-
elusive why the permit should be
granted.
He has now the papers of the Kan
sas Industrial Court, late Utility
Board, and will have that ready, when
needed, asking permission to issue
the asked for stock and bonds in case
the Interstate grant permission to
build. Five of the townships have
their petitions sufficiently signed up
ready for presentation, and Director
Moses tells that in Great Bend they
will put their petitions over in twen-
ty-four hours, and give these fellows
chance as they have others. 1t
might hatch this time.
State Auditor Nate Turner, form
erly of Russell, wries he will gladly
rtgister the bonds, even the 500
bonds, for the farmers right-of-way,
as quick as presented and hopes the
roa dmay be a go to hep Western
Kansas farmers.
