Mr. Parkrr says the Democratic party
needs new policies. Some new men at
the top might help to get the pluralities
below tbe million mark.
Thk Democratic party it present is in
no mood to listeu to a campaign song to
the air of "Try, Try Again." One en
titled "Try Something Different" would
be more acceptable.
Workingm kn gained much by the
election. For one thing, tbey refuted
(iompers' claim that he touched the but
ton amf 2,000,000 votes dropped automat
ically into tbe boxes as he dictated.
North Carolina elected three Re
publican congressmen. No doubt tbe
number would have been doubUd if
Uncle Joe Cannon could have spared the
time to whoop up bis native state.
Cuba elected a president November
14, and on February 1 the American oc
cupation will end. If tbe Cuban experi
ment In self-government fails again the
next provisional arrangement will be apt
to last a long lime.
A pension for total disability has been
granted to a soldier who contracted lep
rosy while serving in the army in the
Philippines. It amounts t" $72 a mouth.
The Government very properly takes
care of those who risk life and health in
its service.
Thk Atlanta Constitution (Dem.) bauds
out some good advice to its Democratic
brethren when it says: There is nothing
to be gained by charging Democratic de
feat to a Republican corruption fund. It
may have played some small part in
doubtful territory, butafierall, when we
consider the business vote right here at
home and know the causes tbat turned
much of it from former Democratic incli
nations, it would be childish to attribute
the result to robbery.
Indiana county comes pretty near to
being the banner Republican county in
the state. At the recent election not a
single one of its 59 election precincts went
De iiocratic, and a plurality ol 4,450 was
recorded for Taft and Sherman. One dis
trict, Armagh borcuwb, recorded a tie
vote, and in Bnrrell precinct No. 3 only
one Democrat stood up to be counted.
Forest county equals this record, as Taft
carried every precinct. At Duhring there
was only one lone Democratic vote and
one Prohibition vote.
Congressman Lafean, of Pennsyl
vania announces that he will introduce at
the next session of Congress a bill pro
viding for the construction of a boulevard
from Washington to the battlefield of
Gettysburg, to cost $7,000,000, sod be a
National memorial to Abinham Lincoln,
in celebration of the martyred Presi
dent's 100th birthday anniversary. Mr,
La'ean says the proposed boulevard
meets with the approval of President
Roosevelt, the Lincoln Memorial Asso
ciation and 'cores of Congressmen,
Tub State Educational Commission on
Monday began drafting the new code of
public school laws to be submitted to tbe
Legislature. About a month will be re
quited for tbe work. Among tbe subjects
on which changes aro to be made are cer
tificates of teachers, uniform taxation,
courses of study, time of organization of
school boards, representation in school
boards, terms and numbers of directors,
whether directors should hold other of
fices, truancy, conflict of the compulsory
education law with the vaccination and
factory inspection statutes. The com
missioners will confer with State Health
Commissioner Dixon and Chief Factory
Inspector Delaney.
From Philadelphia comes the sugges
lion that the trouble over the presidential
year ballot in Pennsylvania be corrected
by placing tbe regular parly designation
directly above the corresponding column
of presidential electors, thereby protect
ing tbe voter from mistaking theelectoral
column for the "party square." The
llarrisburg Telegraph says tbe suggestion
is worth considering. Certainly, some'
thing will have to be done. Four yeara
sgo the Republicans of Pennsylvania lost
102,000 votes and the Democrats 20,000
votes by reason of this confusing condi
lion of tbe ballot. The complete figures
for the state are not yet available as to
this year's election, but since in Philadel
phia alone the Republicans lost 41,000
votes aud the Democrats 28,000, it is rea
snnable to suppose that tbe loss in the
state will be almost as heavy as that of
four years ago, notwithstanding tbe ex
traordinary efforts of party leaders and
newspapers to warn the voter against this
mistake.
Hon. N. P. Wheeler of Endeavor,
Forest county, who has been serving the
Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania district for
one term in Congress, is very much
pleased at tbe complimentary vote be
received at the recent election. The pen.
pie of this district are great admirers of
his1 clean personal character, as well as
his affable disposition and the enviable
record he has made already in one short
winter iu Congress. He is active and
very conscientious iu the service of his
constituents, and everything he takes up
for the benefit of his people, be pushes
through to success. His total vote this
year is more than two thousand greater
than it was two years ago, and his plu
rality reaches the handsome total this fall
of 7,472, which is an increase of 1,3.15 over
his plurality in 1000. Mr. Wheeler's plu
rality this year would have been at least
twelve to fifteen hundred larger than It is
had it Dot been tor a fierce local fight
among the Republlcansof Met cer county.
While Mr. Wheeler was in no way in
volved In that fight, yet the whole Re
publican ticket suffered by it, aud he
with the rest.-Kidrfway Advocate.
Letter from Arizona.
Tucson, Arizona, Nov. 9, 1908.
Ed. Republican: About one yoar ago
you published an article from me and
while not intended for publication, there
was no offence. Knowing that a great
many of tbe subscribers to your paper
have not bad the opportunity to visit tbe
western country and perhaps some of
them being composed of a rambling dis
position like myself, they might be In
terested in few lines from me at this
time. At tbe time I wrote the letter to
my sister, Mrs. Holeman, which you
published, I was on the lower end of the
peninsula of Lower California, Mexico,
on the Gulf side. From there I crossed
the peninsula to the Pacific Ocean and
some two or three hundred miles farther
north to a small port, or rather basbeen
port, by tbe name of San Domingo. At
this place some thirty years ago a Ger
man company bad a concession for gatb
erlng moss from tbe shrubbery tbat grew
there, which they shipped to Germany
and manufactured Into some kind of
paint. At tbe present time there is noth
ing there but a few tumbledown shanties
filled up with sand from tbe ssnd storms,
and the nearest settlement being 50 miles
from there, where I was operating. My
mission to this place was to meet a boat
which we bad chartered at $.10 per day to
bring me down some machinery and pro
visions from San Diego, Cal.,also biing
ing down an American to operate the
machinery. As I bad not seen an Amer
ican for over three months you may bet
I awaited tbe coming of tbe boat very
anxiously, although we were feasting on
quail, antelopeand deer. Tbe boat finally
came ami with it the American tbat I was
looking for, so the rest of my stsy on the
peninsula was not quite so lonely. Tbe
only way of transportation they have In
tbat country is by pack burros and it
cost me at the rate or $100 per ton to
transfer my cargo tbe fifty miles to camp.
That added to the chartering of the boat
and the import duties added to the first
cost of the goods makes operating ex
penses very high, but tbe country Is very
rich in gold, therefore my operations
down there have not been altogether un
successful. They have a delightful cli
mate, the only drawback being the lack
ol rain, although they have no use for
rain as there is very little tillable land on
tbe peninsula. They sometimes don't
bave rain for several years. Some time
ago I noticed by your paper tbat it had
not rained in Forest county for four or
five weeks. It sounded rather strange to
me that the people should get alarmed at
that as I bave scarcely seen any rain for
two years, having been out of Lcs An
geles last year during the rainy season
and left this year before the rainy season
commenced. I don't know as there is
very much more that I can tell you about
the peninsula tbat I did not tell in my
former letter, Theclimate is similar to
tbat of Southern California, but warmer.
The natives wear very little clothing, tbe
children wearing nothing until tbey are
seven or eight years old. While tbe days
are fine, the nights are glorious. Many
a time at night I have laid in my blankets
and read a month old newspaper with no
other light except tbe moon and stars.
I returned to Log Angeles tbe latter
part of May after riding some 2,000 miles
on mule back, glad to get back to civili
zation. I think that Los Angeles is the
gsrden spot of tbe world. I know the
Impression one gets back east is tbat we
are way behind tbe times in everything,
but I believe tbat it is equal to If not far
ther advanced than any other city in the
United States. Tbe population has grown
from 102,000 in 1900, to over 300,000 at the
present time. They own their own water
system. Realizing tbat Los Angeles is
bound to be a great city, tbey are at tbe
present time engaged in bringing the
Owens river from some 200 miles across
the Mojave Desert at a cost of some $30,
000,0000.00. This will give an abundance
of pure spring water for several million
people for domestic UBe, as well as for
manufacturing. It has been tbe meaus
of furnishing work for thousands of
people during the past bard times, which
otherwise would bave suffered. They
bave three artificial gas co upanios bich
furnish gas at the rate of 75 cents per
thousand feel, and I believe we bave one
of tbe best street car systems of any city
in the world. All the beach towns and
outside towns for 40 miles are accessible
by electric cars to the city. Three great
railroads connect tbe city with tbe east
the Southern Pad tic, Santa Fe, and the
Salt Lake. Only a few yearB ago tbey
depended almost entirely on tbe tourist
trade for their revenues, but now tbat
does not cut much figure, as they bave a
great many manufactories of all kinds.
We can boast of some of tbe largest de
partment stores this side of Chicago,
The government is building a new post
office building at a contract price of $200,
000.00. There are a great many beautiful
parks and pleasure resorts tbat would
keep one going most of the time should
he be so inclined. Wages are rather low
on account of so many people coming
here with just enough to get them here
and having to work at any price. Rents
are high and living expenses also. While
yon can get vegetables, fruits and her
ries tbe year round tbey are quite ex
pensive. One thing the easterners will
notice on arriving here is the flowers
which grow in abundance everywhere,
that are grown In pots and prized very
highly by the easterner. While the city
is beautiful I think that tbe suburbs far
surpass it with their immense orange,
lemon, apricot and olive groves, the air
laden with tbe perfume of their blossoms.
The fire red poppy fields on the mesa
lands and the high mountains in the dis
tance with their peaks covered wilb
snow, is a sight that one will never for
get. At the present time we are located
at Tucson, Arizona, for the winter. Tuc
son is a typical desert town of 22,000 in.
habitants. About one-half of the popu
Iatioo are Mexicans. Americana, miners,
Indians, cow boys and some cow girls
make up the balance of tbe population
While it gets very hot in the summer
time, they have delightful winters, bar
ring a sand storm occasionally. From
Ootober to April they bave scarcely any
rain or frost. The days are mild and the
nights cool.
In speaking of the resources and beau
ties of these countries I cannot refrain
from advertising my own goods, that is if
Mr. Wenk will permit, I am at the pres
ent time engaged with others in Ibe colo
nizing of 100,000 acres of land In tbe State
of Sinaloa, Mexico, This west coast of
Mexico will soon be the scene of greater
activity and development than any other
portion of the Pacitio coast. It will be
settled by Americans, as they are always i
at the front to get the best of everything
that's going. The Hairiman road now in
tbe conr-e of construction down the west
coast of Mexico, through tbe States of
Sonora, Sinaloa, Tepio and Jalisco, runs
directly through this land and will open
up an Immense territory ol fertile agri
cultural land and make accessible some
of the richest mining regions in the
world. In addition to this great line,
which when completed will form a
through line from Vancouver, B. C, to
the City of Mexico, there are proposed
and under construction three other roads
for the State of Sinaloa. One from Du
rango to Mazatlan, a port of 2.1,000 inhab
itants and about 70 miles south of us; one
from tbe interior of Chihuahua to Culican,
which is some SO miles to the north of our
land, a small city of 18,000 Inhabitants,
and one which is now building from
Kansas City to the port of Topolobmpo,
which will place Sinaloa 700 miles nesrer
to tbe cities of the eastern half of the
United States than is the city of Los An
geles. Tbe soil of Sinaloa is the most
fertile in tbe world. It has been called
the California of Mexico by Amor leans
who bavs been there, on account of the
similarity to California, of Its mild cli
mate and vast acres of rich agricultural
lands. Within the state are teu rivers
running from tbe mountains to the sea,
furnishing water to Irrigate millions ol
acres of land that has not as yet beeu
pierced by the steel of the American
plow. The natives at the present time,
for what little farming they are doing,
use a yoke of oxen with a stick lied to
Ibeir horns and a crooked stick for a
piow, and other methods of agriculture
centuries old. The Mexicans are very
indolent and it seems as though nature
had indulged them along this line, hav
ing provided them with almost every
thing to supply their meager wants with
out any exertion on their part, as there
are a great many different kiuds of fruit
and vegetables which grow wild, aud
with a very little cultivation any kind of
fruit and vegetables will grow In abund
ance. Cocoanuls, pineapples ana oananas
grow very prolilically. They do not set
out tomato plants like we do every year
for a plant will bear moderately good
fruit for ten or twelve years. The cli
mate for abont nine months iu the year
is perfect. From June to September is
the rainy season and the warmest time of
tbe year, but not any warmer than lots of
days I bave experienced in tbe east. Tbe
rest of tbe year is one continuous spring
day. Tbe Americans tbat bave gone in
there in the last few years have become
very wealthy, even with the lack of
transportation. I would like to tell you
a lot more about this wonderful country
but time will not permit. Should any
one be interested and like to hear more
about this country and will drop me a
line, I will be glad to send them our
prospectus aud literature telling all about
the country and our plan of colonization.
Yours very truly,
K.C. Heath.
