! The exceptionally good crop of last
fall has placed the farmers here in
better financial shape than for many
years past, and as late as at the pres
ent date, they are still freighting
wheat from distances of fifty and six
fy miles. One resident on the ,Glas-
Eow-Baylor trail reports having
Counted twenty-five sfreighting outfits,
pn a two-mile stretch, during one
morning in October Throughout this
part of the state, theswheat crop last
fall averaged from eighteen to TWEEN
ty-hve bushels per acre, oats from
forty-five tossixty bushels. The peo-
pie who made up their minds to stick
BY the country through thick and thin,
are in prosperous circumstances, and
d possession of exceptionally good
homes. The settlerssrwho filed on
claims ten and twelve years ago, are
hustlers, and could be relied upon to
make a good living in any state and
under any circumstances, and for the
average population to the square mile,
they have succeeded in erecting school
buildings scarcely to be equalled in
any state. IN.
q Range conditions are exceptionally
good, and on account Of a very mild
Winter, the stock can be relied upon

Business in town seems to be at

farmers are well prepared for q bum

THE RESULT IN MAINE.

Because 1t comes first among the fall elections more than the usual amount of attention is given to the battle of bal lots in Maine. It is an old saying that as Maine goes so goes the country. and it has proved to be the case so often that there is some ground for the elainL
 In the election this week there ended a campaign in which the democrats of Maine made an unusually hard fight. They were iHbued with the idea that democratic success was possible and the candidate for governor eombed the state for months as 1t had never been ccmbed before. The aim was success at the polls but to break down the great, ab- normal republican plurality that was piled up two years ago.
 Maine gave no indication that it was ready to throw out its republican rep resentatives either in the senate or the house of representatives at Washington There were local questions which play ed their part in various communities hu. the returns from the state make ii clear that Maine is still iRsistent that il remain in the republican column both ir the federal and state legislature.

 Considering the conditions that sur rounded the last presidential election when there was widespread clamor fol change, Maine by the vote this weel hasn't furnished any evidence of any baekslding by republicans which th' democrats had been anticipating.

living. Here the miner bores and blasts and digs away the coal and loads it into the mine cars. If he has a helper he does not need to do the loading him self. The car holds about 5000 pounds of run of-the-mine coal, and a miner is supposed to fill two of them a day.
 When the car Is loaded the miner puts his number on 1t, and presently. with much ado, thsre comes up thA heading and int-1 the passageway leading to the chamber a string of mules walking tandem, or single file. and drag ging an empty car behind.

 There are eti:er strings of mules. all SO and they distribute the empties and mobilize the loaded cars from and at given points.

 Having seen the harvest in the coal fled. let us turn to the seed time. Mil lions of years ago Nature stored away billions of tons of coal for us. and ther left us a record of her processes writ. ten in a language that all ages and tongues can understand. It is story so wonderful as almost to defy belief. and yet one so plain to him who reads it as | to defy unbelief.
 Vegetation grew rankiv. leaves and , stalks settled into marshes. and were carbonized. almost as though it had been | for our benefit. Those were happy days 1 in the vegetable kingdom. Plant life was | quickened as animal life stirred by the ozone of the sea. for the air was laden with unimaginable supplies of carbonic aaid gas, which was inhaled by the Brob- dingnagian jungle.
 Indeed. so rich was the atmesnhere in it's supply of this gas that while it made vegetation grow extraordinarily rank it would have suffocated man. Furthermore 1 there was warmth exceeding anything VIZ know in the tropics today, and there wa;

The fans in this mine fly around with a rim speed of mile minute. Every mine has two shafts; the hoisting shaft and the air shaft. To keep the mine free enough from gas to permit work in safety, enor- nous quantities of fresh air must be sent down the one opening and cores bonding quantities of gas-laden air drawn out the other.
