LJTO.S. BORDER
TOM ASHES
Nogales. Ariz., Officials Are
Warned of Fate if Federate
Cross the Border.
NOGALES. ARIZ., Sept. s.—The
Mexican border situation became most
menacing today when officials of this
town received an ultimatum from the
Mexican rebels that if federal Mexi
can troops are transported over Ameri
can soil into Sonora from Chihuahua
the town of Nogales would be laid in
ashes. The message intimates that
other border towns will share a like
fate.
The rebels threaten to cross the line
and wreck Nogales and then fire it.
They declare that they will not permit
the United States to aid the Mexican
federate. and in addition to looting and
killing Americans in Mexico, they in
tend transferring their activities to the
border.
Americans Help
To Fight Rebels
EL PASO. TEXAS.. Sept. s.—Re
pulsed in their first attack on Nacozari,
S r.ora, the rebels made a second as
-c.uit upon the town during the night,
and fighting is still going on there, ac
cording to reports received early to
day.
An insurgent army of 700 men under
Genera.l Rojas has' the town under
siege. Tilt army of defense is made up
of a handful of Mexican federate, a few
rurales and a number of volunteers.
Among the volunteers arc many .Ameri
cans who are employed by the Naco
zari t opper Company, which has large
interests there. The officials of the
company, fearing destruction of their
property if the town fell, armed their
American employees as guards.
Nacozari lies 50 miles south of the
international line. A report from Doug
las. Ariz., states that a sealed bag
,age car containing 50.000 rounds of
rmmunition left there under federal es
cort for Nacozari, consigned to the
Nacozari Copper Company. It was pre
.•ded by a work train bearing soldiers
■ ho are repairing the railroad line
A. R. Dickson, who has just arrived
from Douglas, says that f.-ars are felt
there that the town would fall into the
insurgents hands before the ammuni
tion could arrive.
Repairs are going on up m the rail
' line between Cananea and Naco,
following the evacuation of rebels from
that quarter.
Steever Increa
Patrol on Border
WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.—-General
Steever. at El Paso, today informed
the war department that he had in
creased the border patrol in the Big
Bend territory by ordering eight troops
"f the Fourteenth cavalry from Fort
1 lark in the eastern part of Texas.
I h.s action was taken because of the
increase of rebel activity near Ojinaga.
Seven hundred rebels are reported to
be encamped ten miles south of Ban
deras. while Salazar and 100 men are
in the Caputin mountains, near the
Mexico Northwestern railroad, and are
reported to be headed northward, raid
ing and stealing horses as they inarch.
Apparently it is General Orozco’s in
dention to mass his troops in the vi
' inity of Juarez in the hope that the
I in oil Stales will intervene to protec;
El Paso and other border towns.
I he rebels have captured large sup
plies of arms and ammunition destined
for the federal forces at Ojinaga, and
arc reported to be eager to fight the
fedcrals. The latter, fearful of the su
beiinr force of the insurrectos, are
fleeing southward, and it is feared that
unless General Huerta and his 5,000
government troops reach Juarez within
the next few days the rebels will re
capture that city.
General Steever indicated that he did
II ’t think it necessary to order more
11 ‘ops to the border at present, pre-
: ing to manipulate (hose he has to
protect the frontier.

H. C. Bagley Planning a Great, Scientific Plantation
TO RUN FARM LIKE RAILROAD
Experts To Be in Charge of
Each Branch of the 3,200-
Acre Tract.
’ Running a farm like a railroad, with
heads of departments, cost systems, wel
fare work and everything handled along
strictly business lines is Henry ('’lay Bag
ley’s idea of making a farm pay. He is
putting his idea into effect by capitaliz
ing and incorporating his great planta
tion at Oglethorpe. Ga., and conducting it
. just as any big corporation would run its
bus.ness. And if anybody doubts that
Mr. Bagley knows business and farming,

and Macon —he has offices in both cities. I
lie devotes the remainder to his planta
tions. But he long ago learned the secret
of not trying to do everything himself.
He has good men the best of men—in
charge of his interests and he lets them
do some thinking for themselves.
The Oglethorpe plantations compels?
3,L00 aeres in Macon county. Mr. Bagley
today was given a charter for the com
pany, with $250,000 capital stock. He ex
pects to sell the preferred at sllO a share,
and he shows his faith in his proposition
by taking the common stock in exchange
for his property at a valuation of SSO an
acre.
How Company Will Operate
The company will be known as the
Oglethorpe Plantation Company, with of
fices in Atlanta and Oglethorpe. A num
ber of the best known business men in
I Atlanta will be associated with Mr. Bag
ley in the enterprise.
Mr. Bagley and his associates are
among the first business men of the
South to realize the importance and ad
vantage of incorporating agricultural un
dertakings. In many respects, the com
pany is unique. It will have an active
board of directors, among whom will be
practical farmers, trained financiers and
I experienced business men Under the su
i pervision of an executive committee from
, this board, offices will be maintained In
! this city for the purpose of purchasing
supplies, marketing the crops and the
various other products of the company.
The farming properties acquired will be
developed along four principal lines, gen
eral farming, with cotton gin. warehouse
and grain elevators: stock farming; dai
rying; pecan and peach orchard. Each de
partment will be In charge of an expert
thoroughly familiar with up to date and
improved methods of agriculture
The company has acquired 3,200 acres

operated during the last four years by Mr.
Bagley who, by deep plawing and in
tensive fertilization, has brought it up to
a high state of cultivation. In conjunc
tion with one of ;he railroads passing
through the company’s property there
will be established a dem, nstratfon farm
and field laboratory.
The fact that modern business methods
can be applied successfully to farming
has been demonstrated by Mr Bagley.
Last year he sold his peach orchard at
Americus, in acreage one-half the size
of the present holdings of the Ogle
thorpe Plantation Company, for $120,000.
The success of this undertaking was due
In a large measure to scientific manage
ment.
Experts In Charge.
The system of management of the plan
tation already has been worked out. M.
C. Welch, for years head of the Postal
Telegraph Company's construction de
partment. has been engaged as general su
perintendent. with authority over all R.
E. Brightwell, an expert construction man,
will have charge of building barns, tenant
houses, wire fences and all bridge and
road work. Robert Wilson, an expert
farmer, will be in charge of all agricul
tural work and Ben Stewart, an expert
accountant, will keep an accurate cost
system, with complete records of expenses
and profits, which will show just how
rnuclt profft each department is making.
There will be foremen of the dairy de
partment and the orchard department.
The whole plantation will be directed
a set of men whose duties are as clearly
defined as those of railroad officials.
That’s the Bagley idea.
"And the labor question won’t give its
much trouble," said Mr. Bagley in his of
fice in the Fourth National Bank build
ing. "My idea is to give the working
force comfort and keep them happy. I
shall try to restore the old conditions of
I before the war’ so far as the kindly rela
tions between employer and employee are
| concerned
"We have erected 10 new tenant houses
Henry ('lay Bagley, who plans
a real, old-time plantation, run
ou a business basis like a rail
way system.
with glass windows and brick chimneys
and a garden to each house. Part of the
garden work will be done by the
general plantation force, but the tenants
l will be required to do necessary work to
raise a supply of vegetables for their own
use.
To Provide Amusements.
"We are planning a combination church
and schoolhouse, and will engage a negro
preacher and negro teachers for the folk
on the plantation. There will be about
| 150 workers. I have encouraged the form
lation of competing baseball teams among
i the younger negroes, too. and every Satur
day afternoon they play for prizes given
by the management.
"In the future we expect to plant 1.000
acres in pecan trees,” continued Mr. Bag
ley. "We shall divide this into five-acre
tracts and sell to bona tide settlers. A
five-acre pecan orchard will support a
family in comfort-."
Mr Bagley is confident of a success
from a businesslike management of a
plantation. But then he has been used
to success since he was 17 years old. He
was born near Americus, graduated from
Mercer at 17, the youngest in his class,
and assumed entire charge of a big plan
tation when iiis father, Daniel S. Bagley,
died the next year. When he was 21 be
attracted the attention of Samuel 11.
Hawkins, one of the great financiers of
south Georgia, and was made cashier of
a well known ban!. Then began the fa- ,
rnous tight between Americus and the;
Central of Georgia railroad. •
The Sumter county representatives in
the legislature were fighting for a rail
toad commission. and the roads were bit
ter against the move. The Central began
a campaign < f retaliation against Ameri
cus. It took the name of the town off Its
schedules and inferred to it as "No. S’-,’’
ami began building a network of roads
around the town to cut off all wagon
trade and wipe Americus off the map. i
Colonel Hawkins and Mr. Bagley began |
to fight for their town—and won. They j
built the Savannah, Americus and Mont
gomery railroad, now a part of the Sea- I
board, and kept Americus from being hot- ,
- tied up.
> Railroad a Success.
Henry Clay Bagley’ was just 27 then,
; but he was made president of the Ameri
-8 cits Investment Company, which financed
t the road and developed real estate hold
ings. At the eml of tw’o years it had
s cleared half a million dollars and paid a
; 100 per cent dividend.
It was Mr. Bagiev who laid out the
t town of Cordele and named it for Colonel
- Hawkins' daughter. Cordelia. Then, at
- the junction of the new road and the
Southern he laid out and developed an-
s other town, called Helena, in honor of
■ Mr. Bagley's youngest daughter, Helen. 1
now Mrs. P. C. M< Duffle, of Atlanta. Both I
towns are thriving and succeeding.
In 1883 Mr. Bagley came to Atlanta and
. became cashier of the Maddox-Rucker
i Banking Company, now the American
- National bank. Two y cars later he en
. tercd the life insurance business, becom
. ing general agent of the Penn Mutual.
, Now he is senior member of the firm < f
t I Bagley & Willet, of .Atlanta, and Bagley,
I Willet & Paine, of Macon, general agents
t of that company.
But through all his other operations Mr.
t Bagley never lost Interest In farming
t His visits to his plantations are to him
5 what vacation trips to the seashore are
■ to most men. He loves outdoors and the
. soil.
Kor many years he owned the famous
Bagley plantation near Americus, a 2 600-
acre tract. Most of this was bought at
' from to sls an acre. He sold the prop-
• erty last year at S6O an acre. Several
I years ago lie became interested in the de
velopment of a great tract In Ma. on coun
ty. part of it within the limits of the town
* of < tglethorpe, and his success with this
plantation led him to project his corpor-
. atlon plan for further developing its re
sources. He expects to bring out of this
’ tract all that experience and careful study
1 can do. For Henry Clay Bagiev is that
f rare combination in agriculture a man
. with actual farming experience, natural
„ ability, scientific knowledge of soils and
plant life ami the capital to carry out ills
ideas. If there's any money in' farming
s it ought to spring from his plows.

Admirers. •
ST. PAUL. MINN.. Sept. 5. —A lusty

o’clock this morning, when hie train
arrived from Des Moines. It was ac
companied by an eager reception com
mittee of 200 insistent Bull Moosers.
who kept yelling for the colonel. Half
an hour later the colonel appeared on
the platform of his private car smiling
amiably.
He got a tremendous whoop. Roose
velt observed that Minnesota appeared
to wake up early in the day.
“We have been awake a long time,”
came the reply. “We’re going to stay
up until we elect you."
I he ex-president was taken to break
fast at tl'.e St. Paul hotel, after which
he shook hands with the Minnesota
leaders. He was assured that the Pro
gressives are putting up a good bat
tle in the state and that the colonel
will carry the state in November.
At 10:39 o’clock the ex-president left
forth? slate fair grounds in Minne
apolis to deliver an address at the agri
cultural building.
At the fair grounds Roosevelt was
met by a special Minneapolis com
mittee and brought to that city, where
he was banqueted at 12:30 o’clock.
About 800 attended. Following this, he
became lie guest of Congressman

of the city.
Guest at "Farmers” Dinner.
An innovation will be accorded him
this evening wii.n the managers of the
state fair will tender him a “farmers
dinner." The management of the fair
reserved the privilege of having the
colonel alone during the dinner and
politics will be tabooed,
7\ith a flourish, Colonel Roosevelt
swung in the state fair grounds here
. today while 15.000 people cheered. Tile
throng waved bandanna handkerchiefs
and the band played “Gary Owen,”
and the Bui! Moose cry split the air.
The colonel spoke to the immense
crowd from a grandstand erected un
der the shade trees near the agricul
’ tural hall. In the course of his talk.
, he attacked Governor Eberhart, Repub
-5 lican standpatter, for aligning himself
, with the Taft forces in the state. Be
t fore the colonel started talking a young
woman in blue sang a melody, in which
a line in the chorus ran "I’m not afraid
of the Bull Moose.” The crowd took
( up the refrain, calling “Who's afraid?
t Who’s afraid?"
While ihe colonel was talking he
; handed his black brpad-brimmed hat to

1 "That's the" hat that’s in the ring,”
* quoth the colonel, and the crowd
cheered wildly.
Fight Between Bosses and People.
“This is only nominally a three-cor
nered fight,” said the colonel in speak
ing to the lowa state Progressive state
convention last night. "In reality, the
fight is between the party of the people
on one side and on the other the bosses
and the beneficiaries of privilege who

I appeal to every former Republii an

“I see that Mr. What’s-his-name,
that congressman from East St. Louis,
Bartholdt—he Is one of the highway
men—has asked Mr. t'mmnins to de
bate the Texas, California and Wash

Cummins will refuse, for the reason
that I wouldn't debate with a pick
pocket the ownership of a watch he
has just stolen. If the police are handy,
I’ll hand him over to them. If they
are not, I’ll tend to him myself. Any
man, any candidate for governor or
other office who has knowledge of the i
facts and supports Mr. Taft gives us
the right to say that he is not com
petent to pass upon honesty in public

"Now, a few words to the men who

Garford termed it “the greatest honor
that was ever tendered a man by any
party in Ohio.” Farford Is the man who
stated that he had been offered the
Republican nomination for governor as
I Judge Dillon's successor, but refused it
"because he wanted no strings tied to

A platform was adopted which rat

Governor Hiram Johnson, of Califor

“Party of Men Unafraid."
Johnson was eloquent and spoke

“This is the party of men unafraid,”
said Johnson. “We met In Chicago

Colonel Roosevelt said he found

Turning to Judge John L. Stevens, Pro.

In Anderson and other counties where
a tile lines are bitterly drawn there is
likely to be serious trouble unless the
