UNCERTAIN STATE OF AFFAIRS.
Boomers on the Isle OF Pine Hav-
ing Trouble.


ing Trouble.
Affairs on the Isle of Pines continue
to give trouble to the state depart
ment. American citizens who went
there under the firm belief that the
island was to become the property of
the United States have suffered Sc
we're shock. One Moerke, citizen of
Iowa, has been fined for contempt of
court in refusing to acknowledge that
a Cuban judge had any Jurisdiction.
One Steere, originally from Florida,
got tangled up while custodian of
goods seized by Cuban court, in
that he relied on the word "manana"
for his pay, and let part of the
goods lose. Now he has been SEN
fenced to six years in prison. 1t
would be we'll if everybody could under
stand whether or not Cuba would be
awarded the little island for keeps,
and if so, then the American boomers
can come nome.

KEPT MARRIAGE A SECRET.
Couple Was Married Three Years Be-
fore 1t Was Known.

After keeping their marriage a
secret for a period of three years
Miss Grace Chapel, a fascinating
Young lady of Cordele, has made
known to her friends that she has been
married to Mr.. Smith of Albany for
Sunday Mr.. Smith called her over
the I0ng distance phone, which re-
suited in her going to Albany imme-
diately to join her husband. 1t seems
that the intimate friends and the rel
atIyes of both families knew nothing
of the marriage, their secret being so
we'll guarded.

Pupils Given Lessons in Growing and
Planting Crops.

Planting Crops.
In all corn states north of the Ohio
river King Corn day was observed
April 4th in the public schools. The
growing of corn and the selection of
good seed for raising corn formed the
subject of talks delivered to the chill
dren in all public schools. To teach
the children how to select the best
seed they were asked some time ago to
make tests of seeds at their homes
and to report the results to their
teachers on April 4. The material
thus collected in the schools will be
summed up by the statisticians of the
department of agriculture and will be
communicated in condensed form to
the growers of corn throughout the
cotton belt. Young folks grain clubs
will be organized in all corn states,
and next fall schools will hold har-
vest festivals with competitions for
valuable prizes. Colorado and Min
nesota have already voted 81, 500 each
for distribution in the form of prizes
among the children taking interest in
the corn growing industry.

NO MORE CROP FAILURES.
Modern Methods Make Fair Yield OF
Field Products a Certainty.

Field Products Certainty.
Fear of failure of the crops has here
tofore been one of the worries of the
farmers life. Reason for that fear
has about been removed, according to
Secretary Wilson, in the case of the
farmer who keeps abreast of the times
and employs mouern methods. There
need be no such thing as crop failure,
the secretary says, even though the
spring be early Or late, or there come
heavy rains, or late frosts; nor are
bugs and worms and scales the men
ace to farmers that they once were.
There may come disasters, of course,
such as frosts in July, or deluges in
certain sections. 1t may be true, too
that there will be some seeds that will
not terminate and bear fruit. But as
a general proposition the seasons OF
crop failures have virtually passed.
The modern farmer studies his land
and it's needs. and informs himself with
respect to what crops it will best pro-
duce. And then he cultivates ii in a
scientific manner, with improved i'm
elements. He does nothing by guess
work, but lays out his plans with
as much care as a general, or a man
ufacturer. The secretary feels that his
department deserves considerable cred
it for the Improvement that has been
made in farm methods during the past
ten wears or so; and indeed it does.
Meanwhile the secretary predicts
that great as has been the improve
ment on farms, there is still better yet
to come. In 1910, he says, the farms
of the country will be almost if not
0uite twice as productive as they were
in 1900. That is a pleasant prospest,
more especially when taken in connec-
ton with the assurance that there need
be no crop failure if the farmer pays
nroner attention to his husbandry.

whether it is absolutely impossible is another question; and if possible it is most certainly desirable. The first purely income tax law was passed by the congress in 1861, but the most inn portant law dealing with the subject was that of 1S9a. This the court held to be unconstitutional.
 The question is undoubtedly very in tricate, delicate, and troublesome. The decision of the court was only reach ed by one majority. It is the law of the land. and of course is accepted as such and Loyalty obeyed by all good citizens Nevertheless, the hesitation evidently felt by the court as a whole in coming to a conclusion, when consid- cred together with the previous decis- ions on the subject, may perhaps indi- cate the possibility of devising a con- stitutional income tax law which shall substantially accomplish the results aimed at. The difficulty of amending the Constitution is so great that only real necessity can justify resort there to. Every effort should be made in dealing with this subject. as with the subject of the proper control by the national government over the use of corporate wealth in interstate business, to devise legislation which without such action shall attain the desired end: but if this fails. there will ulti- mately be no alternative to a constitu- tiOnal amendment.
 IRRIGATION AND FOREST PRES
 ERVATION.
 fr- of the Rocky Mountain and great plains through the development of the national policy of irrigation and forest preservation; no government policy for the betterment of our internal condi- tions has been more fruitful of good than this. The forests of the White Mountains and Southern Appalachian regions should also be preserved: and they can not be unless the people of the states in which they lie. through their representatives in the congress, secure vigorous action by the national government.
 MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.
 I am well aware of how difficult it is to pass a constitutional amendment. Nevertheless in my Judgment the whole
 
 should be relegated to the authority of the national congress. At present the wide differences in the laws of the diff ferent states on this subject result in scandals and abuses: and surely there is nothing so vitally essential to the welfare of the nation, nothing around which the nation should so bend itself to throw every safe guard, as the home life of the average citizen. The change would be good from every standpoint. In particular it would be good because it would confer upon the congress the power at once to deal radically and ef- ficiently with polygamy; and this should be done whether or not marri- age and divorce are dealt with. It is neither safe nor proper to leave the question of polygamy to be dealt with by the several states. Power to deal with it should be conferred on the na- tional government.
 When home ties are loosened: when men and women cease to regard a worthy family life; with all it's duties fully performed, and all it's responsi- Utilities lived up to. as the life best worth living; then evil days for the commonwealth are at hand.
