New Products For The South.

The agricultural department of the
I government Is at all times industri-
ously exploring foreign lands for
new crops adapted to this country.
1t is interesting to note that almost
every foreign plant that is found
/ suited to the United States, suits the
i Southern section.

Indian and African grasses of
which door mattings are made are

delta regions of the Mississippi and

Of secretary Of agriculture. The
common rushes Of our neglected
swamp lands. says the report, can
be woven into mating, but these

grasses that are cultivated i'm foreign
lands, and which the agricultural

\ Washington dispatch states
that Senator J. W. Bailey will not
be elected minority leader of the
Senate Of the sixtieth Congress, on
account of the exposures in his re-
cent Texas controversy. The high
prominence Of Mr.. Bailey in the

of no influence at all in Congress or

With the christening of the new bat.
tleship Utah, the Navy Department will
have exhausted its stock list of names
for Uncle Sans big war craft, and will
have to face serious problem OF find,
ing suitable names for the battleships
of the future. Although the United
States possesses only go battleships. ev-
cry State except Utah at present has a
namesake among our navy. This is ex-
planned by the fact that only recently
have the names OF States been reserved
for battleships; prior to the enactment
of the law providing that only battle
ships should bear the names of States,
1T was the practice to use the names for
vessels Of other classes. To change
the names of all vessels bearing State
names would call forth all the supersti-
tious Hears which sailor feels concern
ing a ship that has been renamed, and
1t is therefore likely that Congress viii
be asked TO decide what shall be done
in the matter Of naming the battleships
which It may authorize to be built.

States rights, 1t can hardly attain the
magnitude OF the North Carolina con,
ilict. A soldier stationed at Fort Bran
dy. Mich, near Sault Ste, Marie, while
firing on deserter who was attempting
to escape arrest, missed his mark and
killed q Canadian girl who was eros
sing the reservation, Remembering
the trouble which the Homer Grafton
ease caused, the military authorities i'm.
mediately placed the man who did the
shooting under arrest, and he will be
tried by court martial. The civil au.
thorities have In the meantime deman-
ded his surrender for trial In the State
courts, but this was refused by the War
Department, Notwithstanding that the
shooting occurred on q military reser-
vation the civil authorities claim juris,
diction by reason OF the fact that the
country Is at peace and the military
therefore should be subservient. How
ever, the Supreme Court OF the United
States established precedent in its de-
cision of the Grafton case, and the State
courts will not be- allowed to have GUS
tody of the man, The Grafton case, it
will be remembered, centered round his
shooting of two Filipinos on a govern
ment reservation and his subsequent
conviction for manslaughter by the civil
courts after his acquittal by court mar
tial, The case was appealed and even
tually the Supreme Court held that the
second trial was illegal in that the de-
dendant was twice in jeopardy for the
same act.

reau OF statistics and occupant OF the
chair OF commerce and finance in the

seldom conferred upon foreigners and
especially upon Americans. II Is only
natural, however, that these honors

Simultaneously with the institution
of suit this week by the government
against the powder trust comes the
charge, in an open letter to the Presi-
dent, that the Georgia disaster was not
as the navy board concluded, due to q
bareback OF the gases, but TO inferior
powder which was fradulently foisted
upon the government by switching
samples that is, furnishing lower
grade powder than the sample furnish
cd to the government for test. The
charge is made by Robert S. Waddell,
president Of an independent powder
company of Peoria, Ill.,, who also sug-
gests to the President that time.limlt
be established by the Navy, prohibiting
future efforts on the part of the men be.
hind the guns to "break the record" in

gestion apparently might be adopted by
