GOOD YIELD ON THE FLAT
1T WILL EXCEED ORIGINAL ESTf-
MATE MADE AT THE BEGIN
MING OF HARVEST.
"Lum" Hale Reports Return Of Twenty
Eight Bushels to the Acre of
Number One.

The yield of wheat In the Eureka
Fiat country is not falling below the
original estimate made early in the
season but is actually exceeding con-
sentative estimates made by crop ex-
perts along in June. The average
yield, taking the fiat over was esti-
mated between % and Is bushels to the
acre by experts who travelled from one
end Of the fiat to the other. In the
vicinity of Eureka Junction the aver
age yield is between 25 and % bushels
while further up on the fiat the yield Is
maintaining about the latter average.
Lum Hale, one of the biggest farmers
on the fiat mas just finished threshing
1910 acres of bluestem. Mr.. Hale has
10000 sacks of No. 1 wheat, making
the average yield better than 20 BUSH
els to the acre. The yield on the upper
fiat in the vicinity of Pleasant View
will probably not be SO good as on the
lower fiat owing to the fact that the
grain was somewhat damaged by the
hot winds in the latter part of July
The damage however will not exceed
per cent of the crop and the yield will
almost be as heavy as on the lower
fiat, although the wheat will not grade
as high.

IT IS NOW OUT OF POLITICS
GREAT NORTHERN OFFICIAL
SAYS COMPANY is OUT OF
THE GAME.
President Hill Is Determined That
His Road Shall Not Take a
Hand Again.

THE Great Northern will not take
part in politics in this state. When
a railroad goes into politics it is made
the prey of too many elements. We
are out of the game"
This is the way Louis w. Hill, first
vice president of the Great Norehen
is stated to have outlined at Seattle
the political policy Of the company he
represents.
Suppose a fight were to be made
on the Great Northern, would your
road make a defensive fight?'
NO" Mr.. Hill is said to have re-
piled. 1--WE do not propose to make
even defensive fight. We propose
to do a legitimate business. The Great
Northern will not expose itself to the
prey of interests that are quick to
make an attack when the road is in
politics.
Il am pretty we'll convinced that
in the past it has cost just about as
much to defend a railroad from po-
litical attack as it would to accept
the impositions that are suggested
The courts are always open when an
onerous burden is imposed and
do not think it good policy to engage
in political fights

Not Afraid to Go.

Old Aunt Casters young master
was studying for the ministry and he
came home from the theological sem
mary to spend mis- vacation. The OLD
soul, who had nurSed him when he
was a child, twined her old black arms
about his neck and said: MARS
Jeems Use so glad to see my child
ag'in.'' YES" he said, Aunt Easter
1 am happy to see you once more, but
it grieves me to see you still smoking
the old, strong pipe. How do you
think you will feel when you get to
heaven and stand before the angels
with that polluted breath?' BLESS de
Lord, honey" the old darkey said
"you'se been off to the logical ceme-
terry, but you's not Farnt all de Scrip
ture yit. When 1 goes to heaven Is
gwine to leave my breaf behind"

GRIFFITH BEGINS
TERM As CONVICT
ONCE HoNoRED ANGELEN0 BE-
HIND PRISON WALLS
Millionaire Who Attempted to Murder
His Wife Commences Two
Years Sentence at San
Quentin

CARRIED In the regulation uniform of
San Quentin convict, Colonel Griffith
]. Griffith, the once honored and
esteemed Los Angeles business man,
today commences a two years penal
servitude behind the penitentiary's
dingy walls.
The wealthy prisoner left Los Ange-
les last night, accompanied by Sheriff
w. A. White.
Griffith was found guilty by a jury
over year ago in Judge Smiths de-
partment of the superior court, on the
charge of an attempt to murder his
wife at the Arcadia hotel in Santa
Monica.
In accordance with the verdict rem
dered in the case, Judge Smith sem
fenced Griffith to serve two years at
San Quentin and to pay fine of $4,000.
Since his conviction and sentence
Griffith has been confined in the county
Jail, where he has been accorded more
privileges than are generally extended
to prisoner.
The last act Of Griffith before leav-
ing for states prison was to deliver a
sermon to his fellow prisoners at the
county jail, in which he told them that
forgiveness of their enemies is essential
in the beginning of new life, and he
declared feelingly that he had forgiven
all those who had wronged him.

FREDERICKS HOME
WITH NEW IDEAS
DISTRICT ATTORNEY STUDIES
EASTERN METHODS
Believes He Has Secured Dispositions
Which VIII Win pustless
Roads Case for
Counties

with the return from the east Of Dis
trict Attorney J. d. Fredericks comes
the intimation that the local district
attorneys office will experience a move
ment of its own, which promises to be
of great Importance in the prosecution
of criminal cases.
Captain Tredericks was authorized
to make his eastern trip at the instance
of the board of supervisors for the pur-
pose of searching for evidence to defeat
the suit brought by the Dustless Roads
company Of Camden, N. j., and the
Dustless Roads company of California
against the various cities and counties
throughout the state.
The plaintiffs claim to have a patent
on the principle of applying oil to roads
for the purpose of allaying the dust,
and when several counties in this state
applied this method, suit was immedi-
ately filed against them for an alleged
infringement of their patent rights.
IT am satisfied with the evidence
which 1 have secured" declared Cap
tain FTeder1cKS yesterday
Expects to Win Case
He says evidence has been discovered
which will go to show that prior to the
alleged discovery on the part Of the
plaintiffs, the oil principle was in vogue
in other sections of the country and
that articles concerning the method
have been published in newspapers for
the past twenty years.
The evidence secured by the district
attorney is in deposition form, and in
this connection testimony was taken in
many of the large cities Of the east.
In the trial of this case, Captain
Fredericks will appear in behalf Of the
league of California municipalities,
which was formed for the purpose of
fighting the combine.
The case will be called for trial before
Judge Wellborn in the United States
district court, June II.
Aside from his duties in connection
with the dustless roads case, the dis
trict attorney has been engaged in the
study Of the methods employed by
eastern district attorneys in the conduct
of their several offices.
Studies Eastern Methods
Captain Fredericks made a special
study Of the methods employed in the
district attorneys office at Pittsburg,
New York, Buffalo, Philadelphia and
Washington, and he proposes to intro
duce radical changes in the working
order of the local office.
The district attorney was particularly
interested in the methods employed by
Hon. Travers K. Jerome, the district
attorney of Greater New York.
The records in all the eastern offices
are remarkably well preserved. and
hereafter certain rules will be laid
down in the Los, Angeles office which
may materially aid the public in the
transaction Of court business.
Those with whom Captain Fredericks
came in contact were particularly anx-
ious to learn of the progress of Los An
geles, and much Of the district at
torney's time was taken up in answer
ing questions about Southern Cali
fornia and the "Angel City"
IT think Los Angeles is the best gov
erned city of its size in America" de-
clared the district attorney yesterday.
