There is another thought well worthy
OF the consideration of the legislature.
Massachusetts has adopted a plan for tho
division of dividends declared by public
utility corporations in excess Of reasoaa-
BILE amount Such a plan, if adopted here,
would, as such companies grew prosper
GUS, provide a still further source of mt
nicipal revenue.
Invested capital should be permitted to
have a fair and even liberal return for its
hazard The municipalities should partic-
ipate in the excess over such return. 1
recommend that a commission be ap-
pointed to investigate this question and
report thereon
A newspaper of our state. in discussing
the questions that would confront this
legislature, said in recent editorial that
"they should be acted on only after the
broadcast discussion and the most conscf-
entious deliberation." / can give you no

We do not think that the territory of
the eastern states and pr the centrai
west has any use for Alfalfa save 3
hog pasture. The crop Il Il not wor
any course Of rotation. and the h'favy
rains of June and July often make it
almost impossible to cure and save the
first two cuttings of the crop, but it
has use and most important one in
connection with the hog, and no farm
should be without five acres of alfalfa
for its sole value as hog pasture.

a man never makes any money out
of machine unless it is working.
Now, the COW is machine pure and
simple, and if she Is not kept at work
there is no profit in keeping her, and
to get something ont Of her there must
be something put into her, and the man
who thinks he can make money by
scrimping the feed Of his cows is very
shortsighted. The COW should be fed
up to the limit Of her ability to assim-
'ilate food If she is to be made profit
able.

Where the writer lives thousands of
sheep are being shipped in from Mon
tana and Wyoming and being turned
into the corn fields to harvest the crop
and incidentally fatten themselves for
market. The plan works very satisfac-
torily unless there is too much rain:
then there is some waste. The sheep
is a dainty feeder and rarely wastes
its food, as does the hog. This plan
has many advantages saves the cost
OF harvesting the crop, it fertilizes the
field and it gets all the weeds cleaned
up If the sheep are turned In early
enough.

We are asked what the post timber
Of the future is to consist Of, ques-
ton of no little Importance, in view Of
the rapid destruction of all our forests
and the almost entire absence Of any
well directed effort to replace them.
There Is more than possibility that
the fence post Of the future will be
made OF cement. Cement posts are
already being made and used with sue
cess. The future is quite likely to see
machines costing but little which will
enable every farmer to make his own
fence posts and secure posts which
will be practically indestructible. When
such posts can be furnished at Is
cents apiece, as they viii be, there is
no need to worry over the failing sup
ply Of oak and cedar posts. which are
now worth is cents each.

Reports Of hog cholera are beginning
to come in from different sections, and
SO we may begin to look out for all
sorts Of fake cures for this disease. 1t
Is just as well to remember that in
spite of all the claims made that this
plague can be cured there is no discov-
cred cure for it. The prompt disposal
of all wen animals, the isolation and
starvation of the sick ones and COM
plete change of location seem to be the
only course to pursue when an out
break occurs. The overlooking with
new corn seems to always invite the
disease, and it is probably true that If
all hogs We're fed better balanced ra-
ton the disease would largely disap-
pear.

NABBED IN ALAMEDA, CAL.
Fugitive Puter Was Long Sought by
Uncle Sam.


S. A. d. Puter, accused of completely
in the Oregon land frauds, the man
who has been hunted for months by
the federal authorities since he
escaped from detectives in Boston, has
been arrested in Alameda by secret
service men. Puter did not willingly
submit to arrest, and attempted to
draw a revolver. The detectives
quickly covered him with their pistols,
but even then had much trouble in get
ting their prisoner to the police sta
ton.
Puter had taken the name of James
William Barr, and travelled under that
alias since leaving the east. He in
formed the detectives that he had en-
gagged passage on a steamer for China
and intended leaving for that country
in few days. According to the Sc
cret service men, Puters room on
Park avenue resembled an arsenal.
Over his bed hung a Winchester rife
and in a drawer was a heavy Colts
revolver, besides the one found in his
possession when captured.

Secretary Root intends to undertake
the reorganization of the consular SER
vice as soon as the new law for that
purpose goes into effect on the first of
July. and so far as it will permit he
will apply the merit system to all pro-
motions.
In the reorganization, Secretary
Root proposes to carry out the spirit
of his original proposition as far as
possible, and hereafter all vacancies in
the higher consulates are to be filed
by promotion, and all original appoint
ments are to be made to the lower
grade. An examination will be re-
quird to ascertain the qualifications of
the candidate, and he must be able to
speak the language of the country to
which he is going except China, Japan,
Turkey and other oriental countries.
In such exceptions the candidate must
be able to speak French This rule
will be applied in promotions also.

MURDERER FIELDS
SENTENCE FOR life

Moscow, Idaho, May 22.-"Thomas
Fields. it is the judgement of this court
that you be imprisoned at the state
penitentiary at hard labor for the per-
iod of your natural life" AS these
words fell from the lips of Judge Steele
in the district court, Thomas Fields,
the self confessed murderer of Fred
Fields and attempted slayer of Isaac
Fields, stood erect, with head high in
the air and face slightly flushed. but
without the culver of a muscle
Fields had just finished telling the
court the story of the crime. 1t differed
from his original confession only in
the declaration he made today that he
did not go to his hiding place with
murder in his heart. Today he said
he was there watching some cattle to
see if his steer was in the bunch; that
he saw Fred Fields start back to the
house. From this he said he thought
Fred Fields had seen him and was 60
ing for gun to kill him.
He offered no explanation of why he
shot the old man, save that it was due
to excitement.
Tom Fields had scarcely taken his
seat aftert he sentence of the court was
finished when Judge Steele spoke, in a
firm voice. "Mr. Fields, come forward
and shake hands," at the same time
extending his hand over the bench.
good bless you" said the judge as he
rasped the hand of the prisoner.
God bless you, too, judge. replied
Fields, with almost as much feeling, if
not in as loud a voice.
AS Fields turned he was brought
face to face with his victims widow.
Mrs. Fields had already extended her
hand to the man who had broken her
heart, and, with the bland smile that
is characteristic of him, Fields grasped
her hand, and for a moment these two
stood silently, Mrs. Fields with bowed
head, picture of forgiveness.
