JUDGE SETS DATE
FOR EXECUTION
Former Policeman Jos. Field
Will Be Hanged March %
for Murder of f. Dirking
PLEA FOR LENIENCY

Joseph Field, the former policeman
who shot and killed his father law,
Fritz Dirking, on November g. 1908,
was sentenced yesterday by Judge
Dunno to be hanged on March %. Field
was formerly convicted of the crime
and sentenced to death on May IA,
1904 but the matter was taken to the
Supreme Court and the resentence yes
terday followed the decision of the Su-
preme Court, rendered last August,
sustaining the judgment of the Supe-
Eior Court.
At the time of the homicide a di-
vorce suit brought by FIELDS wife
was pending. She had left him and
sought refuge with her father, Fritz
Dirking, at whose home Field called
one evening to see her. Unable to gain
entrance at the rear of the house Field
went to the front door and was met by
Mrs. Dirking, who had child in her
arms. Field pushed her aside. Her
husband arrived on the scene with a
knife In his hand and is said TO have
threatened the policeman. In the quar-
rel which followed Field drew his re-
volver and shot Dirking.
Dirkings head was split open from a
blow, and following the crime heavy
iron bar was found with which the
prosecution claimed Field had Drained
fense contended that Mrs. Dirking had
been the wielder of the bar and that in
an effort to strike at Field from her po-
sition behind her husband she had
struck the latter and that it was her
blow which caused his death.
At the time of the former conviction
and sentence Field tainted twice in the
courtroom. Yesterday, however, he
seemed self-possessed and at his ease
during a greater part of the hearing.
He paled slightly when sentence was
pronounced, but heard the words of the
court stoically and without sign of
weakening.
Assistant District Attorney William
Hoff Cook asked that the court pro-
nounce sentence and sign the death
warrant, the papers having been re-
stored in the case Friday. Field was
called upon to stand up and then the
sentence condemning him to be hanged
at sunrise on the morning of March
% in the prison yard at San Quentin
was given by Judge Dunno in husky
voice.
Strong efforts were made by Field s
attorneys, Afford and Roche, to have
the sentence against their client COM
muted and they limited yesterday that
they had reason to believe their en-
deavors would be crowned with sue
cess, and that an order changing the
death sentence to one of life impris-
onment would be issued from the ex-
ecutive Offices of the State between
now and the time set for the execu-
tion.

JAPANESE STUDENTS MAY NOT
GET THEIR SCHOOL DIPLOMAS
Seventeen Brown Students Lose Stand
ing by Failure to Join the
Oriental Glasses

Another turn was given to the jap
anese school imbroglio yesterday when
the Japanese Consul inquired as to
whether the seventeen Japanese pupils
who were about to graduate from the
grammar school to the high school
would be granted diplomas irrespective
of the fact that they had not attended
either the ordinary school or the Orien-
tai school since the question of segre-
cation was raised.
A Mr.. Richardson, representing the
Japanese Consul, called at the board
headquarters for information, but was
informed that he would have to put
his inquiries into writing and that
the board would then reply in writ
ing. 1t is believed that the school
children who have voluntarily absent
ed themselves from the Oriental school
will not be given diplomas emitting
them to advance to the high school
grade.

Low STANDARD OF LIVING


The question of Japanese competition
in industry is not one of fear or favor,
bat of physical endurance Centuries
of racial submission and deprivation
have made il possible for Japanese
to now live on much less than half
the amount necessary to properly sup
port a white man. With unrestricted
immigration practical Japanese con-
troll of numerous and valuable indus
tries must soon ensue, to be followed
by the control of virtually all enter
prises on the Pacific Coast AS the
Japanese increase in number the white
man must be crowded out and crowded
back, to take up more active and mu-
tually degrading competition against
the white man of the Eastern States.
So far as the Pacific Coast is concerned.
the white mans power will be broken
and he will be forced to take up his re-
treat back over the mountains and
plains whose privations he braved in
order to carve from the bounties and
resources of the West the advantages
which we of the Pacific Coast now pos
sess and enjoy.
The white man has advanced to the
utmost limit of this continent The
Mongols across the Pacific, awakened
by contact with the white mans civili-
zation, recognize the fact that the orr;
entails must be either winners or losers
must dominate or be dominated-that
the Asiatic repose Of centuries can be
no more.
History tells us that at no time has
the Ethiopian race raised up civiliza-
tion for itself The red men in America
made some advances toward culture in
Mexico and Peru. The yellow race es-
tabiished despotisms and semibarbar-
ism in Asia. But wherever the stand
ard of morals, of truth and of life have
been the highest-where liberty has
been both a means and an end--therc
has been the country of the white man.
This impending struggle is not only
the meeting of the antagonistic forces
occupying the fringing shores of the
Pacific. it IS not only the contest of
America against Japan: 1t is not only
the struggle of a free and liberal people
against the fanatical forces of mon
archy just emerging from feudalism,
but it is the opening rattle of war

10 Ii a Real Stream, Although Not .
Navicxbls One.
Salt river, sacred to defeated candi-
dates. Is n real stream. While not
navigable. ii Is used every winter az an
ice harbor by the towboats which go
out OF Pittsburg for the south.
Salt river empties into the Ohio
above twenty five miles south OF Louis

from the Kentucky hills to the great
water, and Is as tortuous. as crooked
and as unpleasant TO navigate ~ the
mind can imagine. Yet II is navigated
for short distance from its mouth by
steamers OF light draft. Flatboats aud
RATS are noated down upon its bosom.
Before the civil war Ii was an irnpor-
tant stream in the matter OF bringing
Kentucky Ahisky down in the dat
boats TO a point where they could be
unloaded to river steamer. Refrac-
tory slaves were generally assigned to
the task OF bringing these boats down.
as the work was arduous.
Salt river became a bugaboo among
the negroes. and il was from the un-
pleasant character OF the work on this
river that "a trip up Salt river" came

destination OF a defeated candidate.
There is not river captain or pilot
in Pittsburg who does not know Salt
river. and there are few who have not
sought shelter within its mouth when
the ice was running out OF the Ohio.
The salt name il supposed TO have
come from the salt springs which flow
into IL at its source. 1t Is also said the
name grew out OF the fact that great
quantities OF salt produced In the Ken
lucky country are hoated down this

WORK NOT STOPPED

New Building at EarIham COL
Iege Being Pushed For

HEATING PLANT CONTRACT.
LETTERS HAVE BEEN SENT TO
MEMBERS OF ALUMNI ASKING
THEM TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE
BUILDING FUND.

Despite the fact that there is no
money at hand with which to complete
the Bundy dormitory at Earlham.
work on the building still goes on and
in few days the board of trustees will
select boilers for the new heating plant
and let the contract for that building.
President Kelly said yesterday that he
was very hopeful of having the dormi-
tory in readiness for the opening of
the fall term and the rooms are al
ready being assigned to the students.
Letters have been sent to the Earl
ham alumni asking them to contribute
So each to make up a fund of $4,000
necessary to finish paying for the dor
mitory and building a portion of the
heating plant, which will suffice for
the present. The board of trustees is
taking an optimistic view of the situa-
ton and thinks the alumni will re-
spond with the needed funds.
Finishing work is already being done
on the dormitory, but there is a posi-
bility that work on the heating plant
will be so delayed that the college will
be prevented from using the dormitory
for want of heating facilities.

when they increase their numbers, and
they are at a loss to know the reason,
remarks a writer in Iowa Homestead
Generally they fail to increase their
accommodations in proportion TO the
increase in the flock. They fail to rec
ognize the fact that large fiocks are
difficult TO feed, so that each indlyid-

various ailments have TO be guarded
against where large flocks are kept

The Grnwi'.9 of Apples Is Now Very
Important Industry.

The Grnwi,3 of Apples Is Now Very
Important Industry.
The growing of apples in the Ozarks
has within comparatively recent years
become a very important industry, and
in that region are TO be found some
of the largest apple orchards of the
country, in some instances covering
from 500 TO 1000 acres. AS a rule,
however, the orchards are much
smaller, ranging from 40 to 100
acres.
Principal Commercial Varieties.
The principal commercial varieties
grown. as given by the bureau of plant
industry, are Ben Davis, Gano, Jona-
than and Winesap, the Ben Davis and
Gano varieties predominating. Trees
are generally planted about thirty feet
apart and come into bearing early,
usually in from six to eight years.
Growth is fairly vigorous. but trees
do not as a rule reach large size, in
part due to their early bearing. Many
orchards have not had adequate cul-
tivation, but have been permitted to
grow up in shrubs. weeds and briers
The effect of this neglect was generally
apparent during 1906. the crops in neg
lected orchards being very light or
there being no crop. whereas in well
cared for orchards the yield has in
variably been good.
Diseases and Insects.
As rule sufficient attention has not
been given TO the control of diseases
ana insects, and under such conditions
these have become quite abundant and
destructive. While numerous orchard
lists have supplied themselves with
spraying outfits and have sprayed their
trees, many very soon abandoned the
practice. not having secured satisfac-
tory results. The principal difficulty
appears TO have been lack of informa-
ton concerning the troubles to be con
trolled and failure to comprehend what
constitutes thorough spraying.
