beyond the dreams of engineers
and offers new proof of the fact
that Morocco is a country teem-
ing in natural resources which
have only to be skillfully worked
to make it one of the wealthiest
regions in the world. In the past
the relation of Europe with Aga-
dir were important. In the six-
teenth century the Portuguese
disembarked there and built a
fort. The Dutch imitatetUlu; Por-
tuguese in the eighteenth century
and up to seventeen hundred and
eighty three the Spaniards claim-
ed the right to land there and to
seek provisions. An English
company established itself nt (.'ape
Juby but was forced to leave by
the Sultan. England had howev-
er a vice consul at Agadir up to
the seventeenth century. The bay
of Agadir is perhaps the finest
and most protected on the Moroc-
can coast and should Morocco
eventually be divided among the
powers would be a splendid nav-
al base for the lucky acipiired.
Farm Display at Fair

lection of farm crops to be put. on
display at l!. Dallas Fair. He

I'm sides these lie Wants (b'Sefip
(ions of soil climate timber min-
eral and a general outline nf pros-
pects together with information
as to schools churches railroads
and public buildings and enter-
prises. He further insists upon having
cuts made of I he court house. I lie
schools and the churches and oth
cr iews in town and country.
In the good work he must have
the cooperation of all the business
men and everybody else in tin
county so that the real conditions
in Scurry county may be properly
shown at the Fair.
We ought to have ii three days
meet in Snyder but if we are too
backward and timid for that we

President says that there is no dnn
ger of the Controller Railway and
Navigaton Company or any other
interests monopolizing the field
and nothing to show that his coin
. pany is in any wayconneeted with
the Morgan (Juggenheim interests
Hence he believes that in elimi-
nating the land he has acted for
the best interests of the nation.
"I am as strongly convinced as
any one of the necessity for the
conservation of our national re-
sources" said the President "and
as iiiucji opposed hs any one. to
their monopolization by large cor-
porations hut my convictions on
this point did not deter me from
taking the step which I hoped
might lead to encouraging the eon
struct ion of a railway from Con-
troller Pay to the Pcrhig coaLJield
I thought the paring down of the
amount of public land to be ac-
ipiired for terminals by the rail-
way company proposing to build
the railroad was a poor policy and
one not calueulalcd to secure in-
vest meiit or speedy const met ion. "
As to the charge made on the
floor of the Senate that tin- order
was secret tin- -President says
this was utterly unfounded." In
support of this he says that tei
j'days before the order was made
I the details ot Ryan's application
iind the prob' iiity of its being
minted were gien wide puMi-
i cit. He cites ill this respect that
