Urges Planting of trees.

George L. Clothier, of-zthe.- United
States bureau of forestry, has been
looking into conditions in the Kaw
river valley. Along the. Kaw valley
there are thousands and thousands of
acres of land rendered useless SO far as
the cultivation of crops is concerned.
Mr.. Clothier proposes to plant this
land in forest trees, for the double pur-
pose of making it source of income
to the owners and at the same time
graduating and wedding out the OBJ
jectionable species of trees which will
speedily. spring up. The two trees
which come under the head of 'tobjec-
tionable.' which are most common in
this portion of the country, are the cot
tonwood and the willow.

means absolute faith in yourself. In

The political pot continues to boil
Notwithstanding the passing of cleo
tor day, and now the vital question
is: WHO is to get the jobs?'
Some of the democrats are insisting
that inasmuch as the council has a
worki6g majority of one, their
friends should be given first consid-
GRAFTON. Other democrats want to
give the republicans part of the po-
litical pie.
The republicans themselves are
trying to form combination where
by the democrats will get a few of
the minor offices and they will get a
COED working foothold in the city
hall.
In the distance the municipal
league party is charging down the
line with the claim that in some Of
the precincts there was crookedness,
and that a judicial count would show
that Mr.. Acuff was elected mayor.
This AFTERNOON the democrats of
the city council met to discuss the
situation with the mayor.
To offset the plans for democratic
combination, republican leaders are
busy today arranging a Joint republi-
can-democratic combine. This plan,

A conference was called between
the men and they decided to meet
with Manager Ward this morning.
Nothing was given out at headquar-
tiers after the morning conference,
but it is learned that another confer
ence is slated for this afternoon and
that it will be in the presidents Of
flee.
Messrs. Newman and Garretson
said this morning:
I'VE are not going to expose the
men to any hardships, and IL they
want to reconsider their vote, they
are at liberty to do so, but it is an
unusual occurrence and one that re-
fleets on the ginger of the men.
1T proves that the men in some
quarters want their committees to
understand one thing from their vote
and want the division officers to take
a different view of it."
The local feeling here is that there
is strong probability of a call for
a strike. If it is coming, it will be
issued today.
