 In days of old, it hath been told, how Samson the Philistines slew. This worthy old, by God made bold, no ar nor had of Steel or brass, but with the jawbone of an ass laid thousands cold. This later Samson of the News essays to emulate the skill and animus to slay and kill of Samson old But finding jawbone's virtues few, comes rushing breathless into view with asses whole.
 He fears that with one bone he could not mark us.
 Therefore he tries to use his whole blanked carcass.

Land Commissioner FavoTs Re-
peal Of Timber and Stone Act.
HEAVY INCREASE IN ENTRIES
FIGURES UPON WHICH REPORT
IS BASED.
HEAVY INCREASE IN ENTRIES
Especial to The Heraid.5


Washington, oct. 12.-In his forth
coming annual report Land Commits
sioner Richards viii present forceful
arguments I'm favor Of the radical
modification OF the timber and stone
act He builds his arguments upon
the showing Of rapidly increasing tim
Der entries I'm late years.
Out Of 1874. $50 acres Of public lands
entered during the past fiscal year. L.
1922 We're covered by timber entries
OF more than three times the area OF
timber entries i'm the preceding year.
RMS growth is better appreciated when
ia is known that i'm the twenty-five
years the timber and stone act has
been operative. less than 100000 acres
all told have been entered under its
provisions.
COMMISSIONS Richards objects 20 the
timber and stone act because il allows
entrymen, largely spectators. to ac-
quire for $3.50 an acre lands that Gre
easily worth 500.
There is no doubt that the law is
Icing taken advantage OF by specu-
lators, who are getting rich at the eX-
pense Of the government and of men
for whose benefit the law was primarily
passed" says he. 1T is right that this
timber should be cut and used con-
merclaily, but the government should
get an adequate return for parting
with property. Matured timber should
be cut when ripe. Therefore, I would
not favor a law that proposed to cut
off all sales. but I believe that tie
present law is defective and should be
repealed. The government has more
timber land than all the lumber com
panies own together, and it would not
be just to put a fence about the forest
and forbid cutting"
Commissioner Richards also recon-
mends the repeal of the Communication
clause Of the homestead act.

INDICTMENTS NO GOOD.
Kansas Jurist Escapes Trial on Nine
teen Counts.

kESh GQunkSs
Kansas City, No, oct. IA spe-
cial to the Star from LeavenwOrth,
Kan. says:
Judge John F. Phillips, in the United
States circuit court here, today handed
down a decision holding in effect that
none of the nineteen counts in the first
indictment against former Judge Will
liam Martindale, who was indicted by
the federal jury on the alleged charge
of misapprOpriating the funds of the
defunct First National bank of En-
poria, are good. There is still another
Indictment against Martindale. ia con-
nection with the handling of funds in
several small bank feeders to the First
National Of Emporia.
The indictments against Judge Mar
tindale, who was vice president OF the
concern. grow out Of the failure Of
the First National bank in 1888, when
President Charles Cross, a noted cattle
breeder, committed suicide after an
investigation that disclosed the fact
that he had lost the banks money in
speculation. Although Cross left n
confession generating Martindale, the
latter was indicted.
