The Denver Republican points out in an editorial that the farmer has been making money at rate that makes the small business man and me chanic envy him, and more and more the mind of the people is turning back to the land Increases in the value of from 25 to 70 per cent in the last two years are reported in the regions of the Mississippi valley. through Kansas, Nebraska. Missouri. Illinois and Iowa in particular. Even wOrn-out lands that have produced practically nothing for years have suddenly come into command and ind buyers in men who Intend to again put them under pro- duction In the irrigated sections of Colorado lands that two years ago were selling at $40. $50 and S6O an acre are now going at SlOO and S125. and even as high as S250 has been paid for Greeley lands within the month. In these sections sales are rstricted in number by the fact that even the higher prices fau to tempt many farmers into selling; they say that they would not know what else to invest their money in that would pay them such good returns as do the farms. even at double the prices of two years ago. It Is not extraordinary to clear $50 an acre a year on beet lands, and this would be 10 per cent year on lands at $500 an acre, a price to which it is predicted the best lands in these sections will go in few years.

 The commission, however, decided to continue the hearing in November. Whether or not the case will then be closed is problematical. l

act of congress of April y, 1904 with
the completion of these ships there VIII
be added TO the navy new and unique
type of vessel. In the opinion OF naval
officers the war in the far east has
demonstrated the great value of these
ships. and since these are planned TO
have a big speed and great steaming
radius, they are expected to prove I'M
portant additions to the naval service.
Their building also opens up the prob
ability for the Introduction OF turbine
machiner-. as The department in the
advertisement for bids announced that
alternative proposals for the installa-
ton of turbine engines would receive
the departments consideration. In the
meantime the bureau of steam en-
gineering has been making a study of
turbine systems. and Aas been closely
observing all experiments that have
been conducted in that direction.
The scout ships are 10 be 420 feet long,
with a breadth Of As feet s inches and L
draught of Is feet 80. inches. The dis
placement of speed trial is to be not
more than $3.50 tons Provision is made
FOR a total coal carrying capacity of
about 1850 tons.
Each viii be provided With battery
or 40 three-inch rapid-fre guns and
two submerged torpedo tubes. Four
SnOkestackS will rise to a height Of
seventy-two feet above the base line.
The maximum time allowed for COM
pletion for the vessels is fixed at thirty
TWO months if TeciprOCatug engines are
adopted. and thirUy-six months if tur-
bines are adopted. A total weight or
about 1S4 tons Of nickel steel viii be
employed in the construction of each
vessel FOR protective purposes The
sDeed of the new vessels VIII be twen-
ty-fOur knots.

cruisers, opened at the navy depart
ment today, were as follows:

of typhoid fever, and attempt to judge
OF his disposition and his character.
as it is to judge of the nature of the
mature man of the future during this
erratic fever period of the youth
From this it becomes plain that the
first idea prevailing in the mind of the
judge and the probation officer is that
the boy iS not a criminal, even if he
be guilty of the same crime which
might constitute a criminal state in a
man. He is merely a delinquent, and
he is to be helped out of that deIin-
quency and made to be a wholesome,
sane man.
No Records Are Kept.
Now a word about the connection Of
the court with existing institutions in
the state which have to deal with the
law and its administration. There is
nothing in the state institutions more
widely separated from the juvenile
court than is the reform or state in
dustFiai school. There is no step from
the one to the other The steps all
lead the other way. The court is not
court of law in this sense at all. If
the delinquent choose through his par
ents or guardians to become a candi-
date for law as administered in the
criminal courts; if he chooses to have
a lawyer, a trial by jury, a record of
his crime, and the humiliation incident
to these matters. he has the right. He
is not even examined in the juvenile
court. If. instead, he wishes to avoid

ACCIDENT ON IOWA.
Muzzie of One of the Eight-inch
Guns Blew Off.

Washington, April IA telegram
from the chief Of staff of the North
Atlantic squadron, received at the navy
department today, states that the muz-
zie of one Of the eisht-inch guns OF the
Iowa blew off yesterday during target

the matter is made either to the gen

10 the trust imposed in him he is
placed where he can be better helped
to come up to it. The juvenile court
system has been called "a life saving
station" and it has certainly been so
in literal sense in many instances.
Numerous examples are to be found,
even in the five short years Of its ex-
istenCe, where children. lame and Grip
pied. broken in health and in every
way dying, have been rescued, given
proper medical attention, given proper
homes and proper food and actually
saved by this work of the probation
officers.
The Essence of the Law.
The following in regard to the IHi-
far framed:
The law is expressly framed to avoid
treating the child as a criminal; to
this end the proceedings are Invested
of all the features which attach to a
criminal proceeding Instead of a
complaint or indictment there is
petition Instead of a warrant
there is a summons The child is
not arrested. but is brought into court
by either a guardian or by a probation
officer. The law expressly fOrbids keep
ing a child in any jail or lookup, l
he may be kept temporarily in a de-
, tention home or other suitable place
outside the jail.
1 the inquiry is with reference to the
condition of the child. Is there a con-
dition of dependency or of delinquency
Instead OF a prosecutor there is a pro-
baton officer, who is there, not to con-
/ Wet the boy, but to represent his in
/ terests. The child is never convicted
/ but is found dependent or found de-
/ linquent. The child is not sentenced
! but is committed to the care of 3
( probation officer or to the care of q
! friendly institution. The proceedings
! in court are informal The rules Of
| evidence are not adhered to. The eff
| fort is to find out what is the best
| thing 10 be done for the child, and to
do it if possible
1t may be interesting to note that
in the large cities where the court has
had a fair trial in the past five years
the figures show:
Total number of children in jail the
two years before the law. 6.056.
Total in the five years since the law
