reached, and, as such, under the restraining order can not be molested by city officials. The whole thing Is nothing but a subterfuge on the part of the T. II. I. & E. officials to enable Dayton and Western cars to still enter the city despite the ordinance. This fact that 13 so apparent to Richmond citizens should be equally so to
Judge Anderson and It should not be hard for the city attorney to convince
him of the true nature of the ruse.
It is scarcely conceivable, moreover, that the T. II. L & E. should care to
continue Indefinitely this new and rather expensive system of providing
crews to take Dayton and "Western
cars to and from the city.

Mr. Fairbanks says there is a surfeit
of politics. Referring to the Collier'
Weekly brand?
If Mr. Watson pats off much louge
making up his mind as to whether he 1
going to be Indiana's next governor or
succeed himself in congress, he may
get in the fix the man was in who tried
to swap horses in the middle of stream.
Charles W. Miller, of Goshen, former
attorney general of the state, has- an
nounced his candidacy for nomination
as governor of Indiana on the republi
can ticket. The vim and businesslike
methods he is using in furthering his
candidacy augur well for the kind of
administration he would give the
state if elected.
Editor Charles W. Stivers, one of the veteran newspaper men of Indiana, has
come out strongly and frankly for con
gress from the Sixth district. It is
a real pleasure to find some one willing
to take that office if he can get it, and
especially so, in view of the way Mr
Watson is flirting with both the gov
ernorship and the representativeship.
A NEWSPAPER LESSON.
Now that the Bulletin and News have consolidated, Anderson has two
newspapers, an evening publication and a morning iesue. Some years ago. In this state and elsewhere, there
was a boom in the newspaper business The result was an over-supply of jour
nals. In smaller, growing towns, es
pecially, there was a tendency to
crowd the field. As a result, little or no money was to be made by any com
peting paper. The Spanish-American war made new and large demands on
these papers. Competition was fierce. They exerted themselves unduly in keeping a fast pace. They called it progresslveness. They proposed to keep up with the times, and to give their patrons the best in the market, no matter what the cost. The thing was overdone. Many newspapers assumed burdens and expenses during the war that they were not able to drop afterwards. Competition, a false pride and an effort to put on a metropolitan front, continued to sap the vitality of papers in several limited fields. Common sense is taking hold In various cities. The days of boom growth are over, and the newspapers are fitting into their places on a basis of profit and business judgment. Richmond, Muncie, and now Anderson, have learned the lesson. Experience has taught that two papers are sufficient in a city of 25,000 people. Indianapolis Sun.
j Everybody's. President Roosevelt's latest contri
bution to the discussion of "nature faking," published In the September Ev
erybody's Magazine, is a vigorous pre
sentation of his views, and very much to the point. That the president 13 a
naturalist well fitted to form judg
ments on matters of this kind is not
likely to be denied by those who are
in a position to know, but an interest
ing light on this side of our many-sided president Is thrown by Mr. John Burrough's new book, "Camping, and Tramping with Roosevelt," soon to come from the press of Messrs. Houghton, Mifflin & Co. In writing of President Roosevelt as a nature-lover and observer, Mr. Burroughs eite3 many instances of his acuteness and accuracy which have come to his notice during years of acquaintance, and he shows, too. how genuine a lover of wild animals and all nature the president is. In the first part of the book Mr. Burroughs tells in an entertaining way the story of his trip to the Yellowstone park, with the president, and gives an interesting picture of his companion. The September American Boy. A fine picture of "Minnehaha" occupies the front cover of the September
American Boy, and the matter contain
ed in the issue Is fully up to the usual
standard of thi3 high class boys magazine. The editor's serial. Tad, and
Tomlinson's story, The Camp Fire of
Mad Anthony, are concluded with this
issue. Off the Reservation, that exciting serial by Edward S. Ellis, is continued three chapters, and a new serial
by the veteran writer of boys' stories,
John T. Trowbridge, is begun. The two short serials, Hazy, and For the Flag, are also finished in this number.
Among the short stories and articles
are: Capturing an Outlaw, showing how
a quick-witted boy was more than a
match for experienced men; Benjamin
West, being an interesting biographic
al sketch of that great artist; The
'Spell" at Number Six, telling of an
exciting spelling match between two schools; The Grizzly of the Siskiyou Mountains, narrating the pluck and
daring of a boy in his fight with a gigantic bear. The Banishment of Sol
omon is a fine nature story. Outwitting the Sioux tells how two Indians
were beaten at their own game. Chats

ing Tab on the World contains some interesting information of value to the
boys who think. The usual depart
ments of Stamps, Coins and Curios,
Boy Photographer, Boy Mechanic and
Electrician, Legion of Honor, Order of
the American Boy, and Tangles are all full of Items of interest. The fine Il
lustrations are a special feature of this number, there being over 50.
THE TRACTION SITUATION. The restraining cwder under which the Interurbans from tho east are still allowed to enter Richmond, is a good thing for Richmond according to the present status of the case. Under it there will be no Interruption of interurban service and Richmond business men, therefore, will not feel the effect of cutting off interurban communication with the east. At the same time the order states that a hearing of the case will be heard in the federal court on October 7, thus giving the city an opportunity to present Its case which, if favorably acted upon, means victory for us. The traction company will seek to present Its case so that the federal Judge will grant an injunction prohibiting the city from ever enforcing the recently passed ordinance against tho Dayton and Western, and has already started a little game to strengthen its case. The Richmond Street and Interurban company has leased its lines east of Eighth street to the eastern corporation line to the Terre Haute, Indianapolis & Eastern traction company and the T. II. I. & E. has extended Its operation of cars to that point. Beginning Friday all Dayton and Western cars were run to the corporation line by Dayton and Western crews and at that point they were met and manned Into Richmond by T. H. I. & E. crews. The reason for this is absurdly plain. The city ordinance recently passed prohibits Dayton and Western

In fact, however, it affects Great Brit

market almost impregnable.
There is a simple philosophy to the monetary situation in these great markets. It is a philosophy which is sim

seek neither pleasure nor vice, and am only an observer as I pass along. Life
is too serious at best to spend it In such
a pursuit. My aim is to become better

California and Newfoundland. Collier's for September 7 calls atten
tion to the future trouble the United
States is laying up for herself In con
nection with her Japanese situation by
nforcing her fishing treaty with Eng
land. It says:
The perversity of the Gloucester" fish
ermen has lea to consequences mat may prove serious to the United States.
As they refused to permit a friendly arrangement that would have allowed
them all the privileges they wanted In Newfoundland waters in exchange for the free admission of Newfoundland
fish to the American market, the rela
tions of the two countries have come
down to a question of legal rights. It is provided by treaty that American
fisherman may do certain things. They
assert that these rights are infringed by laws passed by the legislature of Newfoundland. The Government of the United States, taking up their case, has called upon the British government to
make good its treaty obligations re
gardless of local laws. It is now an
nounced that an agreement has been reached to submit the questions in dispute to the Hague Tribunal. Pending
decision the fisheries are to be con
ducted under last year's modus Vivendi.
This Is a case In which victory is a3
much to be dreaded by the United States as defeat perhaps more so. We are asking a body of foreign jurists to
override a local government In the interpretation of a treaty. Very likely they will do so. They would have a natural tendency that way. But when at our request they have laid
down the lines on which the British Government must execute a treaty over the head of the self-governing colony of Newfoundland it will be hard to see just what answer we can make to Japan when she asks us to invite the
ame jurists to prescribe the manner
in which we shall execute our treaty
with her over the head of the self-governing state of California. England's ambarrassment will be no less if her ally asks her to submit to the Hague Tribunal the conduct of Australia and the Transvaal toward Japanese immigration.

(J. Frank Reeves.) This hustling city lies on the New Mexico plateau in the shadow of Tucumcari mountain called by Indians the Squatty mountain, because of Its peculiar shape at an altitude of 4,mjo feet. Situated in the midst of a fertile farming section, where fine crops are being produced without the aid tf irrigation, blessed with an inexhaustible supply of the finest, purest and most exhilarating air in the world, and with ample supply of excellent water, Tucumcarl would seem to be especially favored by nature. And man has not been slow in his appreciation, for more than 2-V cars of emigrant outfits have been unloaded there during the last twelve months, besides hundreds of persons who have supplied themselves with necessaries through the business houses of Tucumcarl. One general store sold last year over $370,000 worth of goods. Then other hundreds have come overland in prairie schoon
ers, horseback, and afoot and their tents cover acres in the suburbs where they are impatiently awaiting the providing of houses for their occupancy. The sound of the builder is heard on every side. Many substantial business
blocks are being rapidly pushed to completion, tenants ready, waiting and urging the work along. A particularly noticeable feature is the natural building material, a richly colored sandstone, found in immense quantities in Tucumcarl mountain, a short distance from the city limits. This stone can be had for the quarrying. It is a3 easily worked and handled as wood, but becomes hardened by exposure to the air. This material Is largely used In local construction work and 13 creating a "city beautiful." The business of the town Is booming, bank deposits having increased over Tn per cent, in twelve months. New Mexico being the favored land for flocks and herds, is nourishing millions of sheep, and their wooly contributions are handled from Tucumcarl fa enormous quantities. One wool scouring plant ships upward of 2.xVi00 pounds yearly and more could be handled were the proper facilities provid
ed.
when it Is considered that 30 acres now in cultivation to where there was oum acre a year ago and that probably 12,000 people have come into this territory in the same period, one can readily see why the bright future of this place seems so well assured. Tucumcarl has a fine stone court house, being the county seat of the new county of Quay. She has fine brick school buildings, churches of all leading denominations, a good line of business houses, but room for . many more to handle the rapidly increasing volume of business, there being excellent openings for a laundry, five and ten-cent store, furniture, candy and fruit, good restaurant and especially for a good $2.o to $2..iO day, well-kept
'hotel, which Is greatly needed.
Theo. W. Heman Is president of the Tucumcarl commercial club, and S. M. Wharton of the Tucumcarl News 1 secretary. Farmers who have resided in this section long enough to be qualified, unite In testifying as to fruitfulness of the soil, a rich red loam, similar to that of Oklahoma, and express themselves as satisfied that as a home-making proposition it stands second to none. There are yet government homestead lands to be had by the roan of limited means, who desires to provide a healthful and productive home
for his family. There would seem to be here an opportunity which should be quickly grasped, for corn, wheat, oats and practically all standard farm crops, including the profitableorage crops, can be satisfactorily produced, and for stock raising there Is no better land. For business men, some of whom are already planning for branch stores in the smaller towns In the territory, there are splendid openings. Jobbers In standard lines would find a profitable field there and a chance to build up a large business. To the small dealer there Is an equal chance. To the builder, the mechanic, the laborer, or any one with the least snap and ginger in his or her make-up, Tucumcarl and its surrounding territory offers opportunities that should not be overlooked.
The population has more than dou-j &led in the past year, reaching cow j about 2.300, and it is not unreasonable j to look for an increase to 3.O0O or .000j In the coming year. As to the further j future who can tell? Perhaps and

It Is the junction point of the Dawson branch, reaching into the great coal fields of the Dawson district. Asa commercial center the location is very promising, its tributary territory extending for a radius of over 100 miles without competition, and
