the cases, SO far tried under It, have
been successful.
The old law regulating the scale of
renovated butter" was repealed and a
stringent license law enacted in its
place.
There were also laws providing for
Investigation into the diseases of do
nestle animals" for the protection
of song and insectivorous BIRDS" pro-
hibiting the sale of impure milk and
cream" amending the cheese law"
requiring fruit juice" on sale to be
pure; protecting timber against fire; "
prohibiting the "coloring of milk or
cream" regulating the "bailing Of
hay" providing for rebates on land
in forest trees" erecting a department
of forestry. together with number of
minor laws which together make up
the 33 mentioned.
SCHOOL SYSTEM DEVELOPED.
Perhaps the most important of all
of the laws passed by the legislature
affecting agricultural people, is that
which provides for the 'centralizing
of the public schools" in the town
ships, and for the erection of high
schools in the country districts. No
state has now more advanced legisla-
tion in this direction than ours and
this is due to the action of the legis-
lature of 1901.
No law passed by any legislature
since the enactment of the consolida-
tion act of 1854 is more valuable to
country people than this. Agricultural
people, under the provisions of the
latter law can give an education at
home to their children equal to that
now given in the best town or city
schools. This one act, in the interests
of agriculture, is worth all that the
cost to the people of the state.
Whoever else may see fit to criticise
the late legislature, agricultural peo-
pie can have no cause to do other than
praise it, for it's service to their inter
ests. The enemies of the administration
are continually calling attention to
what they regard as bad legislation"
but are careful not to attempt to prove
any of their allegations, or to give the

beneficial acts which it enacted Their
partianship is run mad, and has blind
ed their eyes to all excellence in the
Republican party. In their views there
is no good thing or person outside Of
Democracy, Populism and fusion.
The farmers will vote to sustain the
national administration by the Repub-
lican party, which has brought such
unparalleled prosperity to the country,
has opened up mills, mines and manu-
facturers. until profitable markets for
all agricultural products are found in
almost every district in our state, and
to uphold the state administration in
its efforts to benefit country people as
exhibited in the salutory legislation it
enacted in their interest during the
session of 1901.

SAMPSON HEARD FROM
His Appeal For Representation Re
fused BY Schley Court.

His Appeal For Representation Re-
fused BY SchIey Court.
Washington, Sept. 2S.-In the Schley
court of inquiry yesterday letter was
presented from Rear Admiral Samp-
son. asking to be allowed to be repre-
sented in the court by counsel, Messrs.
Stayton and Campbell, but the court
refused to grant the request, on the
ground that "the court does not at this
time regard you as party to the
case"
After the court adjourned Mr.. Stay
ton said today he would again renew
his request to be allowed to appear in
Admiral SIMPSONS behalf. He added
that the continued references to Ad-
miral Sampson were offensive and
should be properly met. He further
stated that he did not regard favorably
efforts on the part of the Judge advo-
cate to prevent exploitation of Admiral
Simpsons part in the war. He thought
It better to bring the matter in and
meet the questions squarely.

Among other things he said
"The last legislature, like every
other legislative body, must be judged
by it's work, not by the bills it did not
pass, nor by the short comings of it's
individual members, but by the bills

Wealthy Long island Man Convicted
of Forging viii - How the
Crime Was Discovered

New York. March s.-Chaunccy f.
Glover, wealthy resident OF
Cutchogue, L. L., was found guilty in
the supreme court of Suffolk county
Thursday on the charge of forging a
will purporting to be that of his fa-
ther. Glover was sentenced to four
years and four months. He fell in a
faint as the Judge passed sentence up
on him. The elder Glover died in 1890
and the son contested the will which
was produced at that time. In 1900
Glover offered for probate as the will
of his father a document which gave
him practically all of his fathers es-
tate, the paper bearing date 1890. The
stationer who manufactured the paper
on which the alleged will was written
testified that the paper was not manu-
featured until 1897, and upon this evil
dence Glover was convicted.
