Secretary Makes
Notable Speech at
Toxic

Declares Conflict Between
Japan and US. Would
Be Great Crime.

Toxic, Japan, Oct, 1.-The banquet
in honor of Secretary of War William
H. Taft, of the United States, given
last night by the Municipality and
Chamber of Commerce and attended
by Japanese statesmen, brought forth
notable speech by the American war
secretary, which made splendid i'm
preston. After dinner the assembly
room presented a remarkable scene
Every one was congratulating every
one else on what was considered a
complete removal of the war cloud
that had arisen between Japan and
the United States and the silencing of
the sensationalists.
America Proud Of Japan.
Secretary Taft began by giving
thanks for the evidence of good will
and stated that all Americans were
deeply proud of Mr.. Roosevelt, who
with the prestige of presidency, hasten
ed peace, honorable to both Japan and
Russia in the late war between those
two countries. He spoke of the share
that American had In aiding Japan's
great progress and said that all Amer
leans were proud of Japan, who al
ways had cordial sympathy in us.
"Now, for moment" continued the
Secretary, there is only a little cloud
over our friendship of fifty years but
the greatest earthquake in history
could not have our enTity. cannot
trespass upon the Jurisdiction Of the
department of state and discuss the
recent events of San Francisco, but I
can say there is nothing in them that
is not capable Of honorable and full
adjustment by ordinary diplomacy
The Secretary said he did not hold
that war is entirely uninstifiable when
International grievances cannot other
wise be redressed, "but war is He'll, F"
continued the Secretary, "and the only
great cause which cannot be settled
by diplomacy, justifies it,
"War is He'll"
Secretary Taft said that war be-
tween Japan and the United States
would be a crime against civilization.
He further stated that neither desired
it, neither would gain anything by 1t
and both governments would strain
every nerve to prevent it. Mr.. Taft
characterized even the suggestion OF
war as Infamous and declared that
Americas good will toward Japan was
as warm as ever.

CONFESSED HAVING
KILLED HIS BROTHER
So Witnesses Testified Today in Muir
der Trial Of Juan Garcia--Insani-
ty to Be Defense.

Territorial district court for Santa
Fe county reconvened this morning
at 9 o'clock, Judge John r. McFfe,
presiding, and Clerk Francis G. Will
son at his desk. The territory was
represented by Assistant District At
torney Charles c. Catron.
Examination of witnesses was be-
gun today in the murder trial OF Juan
Garcia who is under indictment
charged with having killed mis- brother
Florencio Garcia, which occurred on
the night of November 8, 1907. The
jury sitting in the case was completed
at special session Of court held last
night, but it required special venire
of thirteen, only eight jurors having
been accepted from the regular panel.
The names of the jurymen are Julian
Baca, G. M. Conklin, Sixto Sanchez,
Encarnacion Salazar, Ramos Velarde,
Henry G. Alarid, Emilio Ortiz, Romu-
10 Ortega, Monico Trujillo, Patricio
Lucero, Aniceto Lobato, and Felipe
Archuleta.
According to the testimony of the
witnesses who were examined for the
prosecution today the defendant had
made statements either to them or in
their hearing that he had slain his
brother. The case is peculiar one.
Juan Garcia who is now being tried
is a gray haired old man over seven.

brother whom he killed was three or
four years his senior. The pistol with
which the fatal deed was committed
has been introduced in evidence.
DR.. David Knapp was the first wit

Of having examined the body of the
murdered man and found two bullet
wounds, either Of which, in his opinion
would have proved fatal. He stated the

does not care to make, a home. The
land should be sold outright only in
quantities sufficient for decent homes
mot in huge areas to be held for
speculative purposes or used as ranch
es where those who do the actual
work are merely tenants or hired
hands. No temporary prosperity OF
any class Of men could in the slight

part to shape the laws so that they
may work for tPo permanent good OF
the home-maker This Is fundamen-
tai, gentlemen, and is simply carrying
out the idea upon which I dwell in
speaking to you of your own farms
here in Iowa. Now in many states
where the rainfall is light il is a sim
pie absurdity to expect any man to
live, still less to bring up a family, on
one hundred and sixty acres. Where
we are able to introduce irrigation, the
homestead can be very much less in
size--can, for instance, be forty acres;
and there is nothing that Congress
has done during the past six years
more important than the enactment Of
the national irrigation law. But
where irrigation is not applicable and
the land can only be used for grazing
it may be that you can not run more
than one steer to ten acres, and it is
not necessary to be much of mathe
matician in order to see that where
such Is the case homestead of one
hundred and sixty acres will not go
far toward the support of family. In
consequence of this fact, homestead
ers do not take up the lands in the
tracts in question. They are left op-
en- for anybody to Craze upon that
wishes to. The result Is that the men
who use them moderately and not
with view to exhausting their re-
sources are at the mercy of those
who care nothing for the future and
simply intend to skin the land in the
present. For instance. the small
sheep farmer who has a home and
who wishes that home to pass on to
his children improved in value will
naturally run his flock so that the
land will support it, not only today,
but ten years hence; but big absen-
tee sheep owner, who has no home
on the land at all, but simply owns
huge migratory flocks of sheep, may

over the small sheep farmers range

his flocks on, whereas the small man
