LOST HIS NERVE,
Why 1t Was That Big Pete Failed to
Hit the Sheriff.

Hit the sheriff..
There were thirty men in the White
Wolf saloon when the sheriff of Silver
county sauntered in to arrest big Pete
Thompson for murder. Pete was play
ing hand in game of poker, and
after nOdding to him the sheriff stood
up at the bar and called for drink.
His back was scarcely turned when
Pete laid down his cards, pulled his
gun and fired six shots as fast as his
finger could pull the trigger. The sheriff
never moved. When the smoke had
rolled out Of the open door and we
could see, the sheriff stood in the same
position and Wore the same smile. One
bullet had burned his cheek; second
had grazed his ear; a third had cut
through his shirt collar under the left
ear. Big Pete was dead shot. and
yet he had missed his man at fifteen
feet.
"Got through, Pete?" asked the sher-
III, breaking silence that was posi-
lively painful.
And you-you are not heeledw
gasped Pete as his arm sunk slowly
down.

"You didn't bring your guns?"
mo; If you are through shooting,
we'll 60"
Pete laid his two guns down on the
table before. him and walked to the
door and out into the street. His horse
was tied to post block away. He
reached the horse, mounted and then
headed down the long street after the
sheriff, who was giving him not the
slightest attention. In five minutes the
pair were out Of sight.

the barkeeper. who had come to the

When character is so fragile that
the breath of suspicion can mar it.
or the slightest scratch of criticism
destroy it, it has no reason for eX-
istence. SO, even more SO, is true
of reputation. When an editor faith
fully presents a principle of truth and
righteousness, and scathingly de-
nounces a practice Of vice and deceit.
it is presumed that fabrics of wick
edness and fraud be ruined, as they
should. A conscientious writer will
fearlessly present the truth, though
the heavens fall. and courageously
stand for principles of right. Even
in some instances it is proper for
him to specify. If he Is wrong, he
is best met with his own weapons;
if he is right, no craven wretch, nor
bringing sycophant, nor emissary of
wealth can overcome to stay the force
for right and truth his brain has set
in motion.

Secy. Wilson Tells What is Being
Done to Reclaim Them.

Washington, Nov, 3O.-The annual re-
port OF Secy. OF Agriculture Wilson
has been submitted to the president.
secy. Wilson reviews at length the
production and exports ~ agricultural
products. The increase of exports OF
farm products for the half century end
ed in 1901 for from STAT 100000 to $685.
900, 0O0--55O per cent The exports OF
farm products for tho closing decade
of the last century was over 500 100000
and FOR 1908 over 1878 900 0OO,an amount
second only TO that OF 1901.
According 20 the departments In
vortory OF farm animals for jan l,
1908, the value of horses was oyer ST.
COO, O00, 900 and OF mules near $500, COO 900.
The value OF cattle OF all kinds consid-
erably exceeded $500, 600 900, of sheep,
sl6S 100000, and of hogs, $685. 100000
During the past year the bureau OF
soils has been engaged In making alkalt
reclamation demonstrations In the arid
west Referring 10 Pm extensive expert
ment located near Salt Lake city,
where an area OF $4,000 acres Is un~
productive because Of an excess of
alkali, tract OF forty acres was Sc
cured and the work OF reclamation. in
cooperation with the Utah experiment
station, was undertaken.
AT the beginning this tract was found
to contain more than 2la per cent Of
salt, or a total OF $3.50 tons IN four feet
OF soil. Two-thlrds OF this quantity
has now been removed by the simple
method Of undertakings ana flood
ing,
II is believed that the entire area
will be sufficiently sweotenod by the
end Of the present season 20 permit
growing OF shallow crops. The value
OF alkali lands at Salt Lake City Is but
s. per acre as against 800 TO $3.50 an
acre for lands not affected. The cost
Of installing the drainage system was
about SIC an acre,
An experiment was also undertaken
near Fresno, Cal, where an excess %
alkali caused depreciation in lands
aggregatng not less than $1,000 900. The
work here has been as successful as
al Salt Lake city. An experiment has
also been successfully installed at
Yakima, Wash. The department Will
establish six OF these demonstration
experiments IN parts Of the west where
loss from alkall has been great.
