tobacco, grown in the famous Pied

sweetening than tobacco grown in
any other section of the United States

juicy, full tobacco taste that satisfies
tobacco hunger. That's why chewers
prefer Schnapps, because Schnapps
cheers more than any other chewing
tobacco, and that's why chewers Of
Schnapps pass the good thing along
-one chewer makes other chewers
until the fact is established that
there are more chewers and more

tobacco is sold than there are in
those states where Schnapps has not

The Sunfower.

"The sunlower," said a naturalist,
sis the most deceitfll of all plants, for
it has fooled six nations.
"Six nations believe that the sun
flower turns toward the sun, and 80
thoroughly are they deluded they call
it by a name which bears witness to
their error" says the Louisville
Courier.Journal.
"Thus the French call the sunaower
tournesol. The Spanish call it gira-
sol. The Italians call it girasole. The
Hungarians call it n~aptaforgo. Each
of these words me an turn to the SUM-
The English and Americans don't 90
quite that far in admitting themselves
to be the plants dupes. They only
call it suntlower. They mean by that
name, though, quite as much as the
other names imply. The belief Is
general among six nations that the
sunlower turns with the sun and al
ways faces the l%uminary.
"As q matter of fact there is only
one flower that turns or keeps with the
sun, namely, the sun spurge.'

Williston Project Completed.

WILLlsToN, n. D., June l7.-With
the pressing of an electric button by
President Roosevelt, setting the pump
ing machinery OF the Williston irri-
CATION project into motion, the first.
undertaking Of the reclamation ser.
vice is complete. With many prom.
inent officers aad visitors here and
thousands of people from all owe
this section in attendance, the day
will long be remembered as the great.
est in the history Of western North
Dakota.
The Will:ston project is the most
unique Of its kind ever attempted and
will stand as a monument to the in.
genuity aad skill Of the engineers of
the reclamation service. Because OF
the instability Of the channel Of the
Missouri river, it was found neces-
sary to construct works to Lin water
by means OF pumps instead of depend
ing upon the force Of gravity. Large
beds of Ignite in the vicinity afford
cheap fuel for the power house and
the pumps have been located on float
ing barges, which will accommodate
themselves to changes OF the channel
and the water level. Pipes with hexi'
BILE joints deliver the water into ba'
Sins located q short distance from the
shore. Nearly 10000 acres of land ii
this vicinity will be irrigated by wa
ter from this system, and an area o
similar extent in the Nesson vale!
will also be benefited by pumpin!
systems. The soil in the vicinity is
rich loan and the reclamation service
officials believe it will become tn
most productive in the northwest as

LETTERS FROM HAYWOOD.
Orchards Testimony Strengthened
BY Oocumeetary Evidence.

BOISE, June 15.-The prosecution in
the Steunenberg murder trial offered
one of it's most important pieces of
evidence against William D. Haywood
today, when, recalling Harry Orchard
for redirect examin alton, it intro.
duced and secured the admission of
four letters, tending to show that Hey.
wood, In the fall of 1905, when Orchard
swears he was engaged on various
crimes for the federation leaders, had
participated in q plan to deceive Mrs.
Orchard No. 2, of Cripple Creek, as
to the Whereabouts of her husband.
Over q protest from the defense, Or.
chard was allowed to testify that,
early in the summer of 1905, Haywood
told him that Mrs. Orchard was writ.
ing him for inform alton as to Or
chard's Whereabouts. Orchard swore
tina he proposed that he should write
his wife a series Of letters that were to
be falsely dated and delivered to Mrs.
Orchard bv agents of the federation.

which he dated at San Francisco, and
had them delivered through Paddy
Mulliney, who represented the fedora
ton at Cripple Creek. Orchard iden.
tilted the two letters and, over all Oh.
jeceions, Judge Wood admitted them.
Next Orchard swore that he wrote a
third letter, purporting to come from
Nome, Alaska, and that, under the
general arrangement that he had made
with the federation's officials, Marion
Moore carried the letter to Nome,
where he went as organizer Of the fed.

bearing the date of Nome, August 5,
1905 was produced, identified and ad-
Omitted in evidence.
Orchard then identified a letter which
Haywood wrote to Mrs. Orchard, and
that, too, was admitted in evidence
and handed to the jury.

Make Rubber From Wheat.

Wheat and hogs, hitherto regarded
by the farmer Of the Mississippi VAL
ley simply as food products, have as.
sumed a new commercial Importance.
In brief, wheat and hogs spittle will
produce rubber. The importance Of
the discovery can scarcely be overes-
timated, coming as it does at a time
when the world is auxiously asking
from where its future supplies of rub.
Der are to come. In half q decade, it
is said, the annual consumption of the
elastic material will be at least 80, 900
tons. Even 10O, 600 tons is regarded
by many as q conservative estimate
1t was by accident that Mr.. Carr,
the English inventor or discoverer of
the substance, made the first step in
his great discovery. He was but q
small boy then. Passing n day
through a field OF wheat he plucked a
few grains OF the cereal, and, chewing
them, formed the glutinous compound
80 familiar to every country lad.
Many years later, recalling his
early experience, he began putting his
theory to the test. His first labora-
tory was email shed in his back yard:
his apparatus a coffee grinder and a
kettle of hot water. Later he was
able to obtain the use of the best shops
and laboratories in England.

Must Post Their Tariffs.

WASHINGTON, June lS.-An order
has been issued by the interstate COM
merce commission regarding the post
ing of the tariffs of railroads. Under
the e rate law, it is required that
copies of the tariffs shall be posted
in two conspicuous places in every
railroad station in order that they
may be inspected conveniently by the
public.
Numerous minor but important
changes have been made in the rules
covering the construction and filing
of tariffs. The new rules also permit
carriers to authorize fast freight
agents to act for them in the publica.
ton and filing of tariffs under power
Of attorney.
The commission expresses the opin.
ion that carriers may lawfully make
special rates for the movement Of fed
eral troops when such movement is
under orders and at the expense of the
United States government, and that the
rates so made need not be posted OF
filed.

more greatly and more personally in
terested in the wise and economical
use and disposition of what remains
of public lands in the west than any
administration officials can be. Presi.
dent Roosevelt knows by personal ex-
perience and investigation something
of the interests and rights of stockmen
upon the public lands. He knows. or
ought to know, from his experience in
the bad lands the absurdity of consid.
ering large parts OF the domain as
available for either homestead or for.
est reserve purposes. There is NJ
possible excuse for misunderstanding
Of the facts by either the president or
the people who now utilize the public
lands as he has done in years gone by.
The latter cannot fail to appreciate
the Importance of preserving forests
in the mountains If the land is to re.
tain its value for any purpose. The
basis for differences between the ad.
ministration and the people OF the
west must be found, as suggested In
Senator Carter's address, in the man.
ner of application Of the policy rather
than the policy itself. There may be
come unavoidable hardship to indi.
viduals in some instances, but the
general welfare cannot be subjected

sons.
The state of Montana derives a con.
siderable and rapidly increasing rev.
enue from rentals for use of lands
held by the state in trust for the PEG.
pie of the state. The right of any
citizen of the state to free and undis-
puted use or possession of such lands
might be as reasonably assumed as
the right of any citizen of the United
States Il like use or control of lands
held by the national government as a
part of the public domain. No one is
heard declaiming against the policy
of the state which has fixed the price
OF state lands far above that ever
charged by the national government.
No one is likely TO raise a question of
doubt as to the wisdom of the state
policy to conserve the public interests
at the same time that the full use Of
the lands is available to the citizens.
Probably the national policy nigh,
be popularized by the more frequen,
employment Of agents qualified to de-
ternine for what purpose the lands
are best adapted, but any attempt &c
dispute that national authority or te
defeat earnest endeavors to preserve

naming in the west, whether under
taken for commercial or political ends.
is certain of failure in the result from
the power Of public opinion in the
west rather than from the power O.

A RAILROAD ~CONUNDRUM.

When an American citizen purchases
railway transportation, why should
he be prohibited from selling or Civ
ing it to some other person: If he
buys livestock, merchandise, or ad-
mission to a public entertainment, he
can dispose of the property or right
as he sees fit, but in the case Of rail
way transportation it is different.
This red tape restriction in the rail
road business is the subject of COM
ment in a Washington dispatch which
says:
A new principle probably will find
acceptance in the w philosophy OF
interstate and intrastate commerce.
sale of passenger transportation X
actly like potatoes are sold, as a com.
modify conveying absolute title trans.
ferable at the option of the buyer. 1t
is rapidly becoming the belief among
government officials who have to do
with these matters that the plan in
vogue on the New York Central lines
must be universally adopted by all
railroads. This plan is:
One may 90 to any New York Cen
trail ticket Office and buy a mileage
book at two cents Hat a mile. a 500
mile book costs $40: a lO0O-mile book,
$40. This book may be used by a man
and his wife. the conductor ''pulling'
for instance POO mile coupons for the
Journey of the man and wife to AL.
bany, 100 miles from New York city.
This rule applies to every station on
the entire system. Furthermore, the
buyer may take with him any one he
pleases to take, whether or not a
member OF his family. For instance,
if he see q friend on the train, he may
instruct the conductor to pull twice
the mileage for the distance the two
, are going from the same book. Or he
may take thus as many persons as the
mileage of the book will carry.
Again, il he be temporarily in the
state or on the Central's lines, ant

Federal Officials Invite Suggestions
From Residents Of the West.

DENVER, June 1S.-The pu bile lands
convention. which met in this city to-
day for a three.days' session, got
down to business this afternoon and
listened to addresses by James r.
Garfield, secretary of the interior:
Richard A. Ballinger, commissioner
OF the general land Office, and Henry
NJ. Teller, United States senator from
Colorado. Permanent organiza alton
was effected by the selection of Dr..
j. M. Wilson of Wyoming, as per.
manent Ct hartman and Fred johnson
OF Colorado as secretary.
The first speaker of the. afternoon
was Secretary Garfield. He urged the
convention, in it's discussion OF the
present land laws. criticism OF which,
he said, had been the caus OF the
calling together Of the convention, to
contne Its discussion to the effect of
these laws on the nation snd1 not any
particular section Of the country. The
public lands, he said ,:were not an as
set OF any locality. They belong to
the people Of the west. He welcomed
criticism which was constructive, but
thought that criticism a. merely an
attack, without q suggestion or i'm
provement, was worthless.
Mr.. Ballinger confined his address
to a history of the land Office and its
duties. He explained at length the
present land laws.
DR.. Wilson in taking the chair just
before adjournment, compared the
convention to q stockholders meeting
and the representatives of the govern.
ment to the directors of the corpora
ton. 1t was the duty Of the directors
to take their orders from the stock.
holders, he said, and if they did not,
at the next regular meeting the direc.
tors would be removed.
United States Senator Carter OF
Montana, who was chosen temporary
chairman, made the following state.
ment regarding the position of Presi-
dent Roosevelt on the public land
question:
1.-The president ia, irreyocably op-
posed, it seems, to the continuance Of
the free and unregulated range, but is
not absolutely committed to any
scheme for the accomplishment of his
purpose. This is what he informed
me. His policy, as ! am informed by
him, is the regulation of the public
range Of the west by the government
The president added that if it wa:
found there were any harsh rules IL
force in the administ alton of the
policies, these harsh rules, not the
policies, would be modified"
Senator Carter, in his address al
temporary charm an, vent over tn
history of the development of the west
He expressed the opinion that the da.
of the great open range is past. IL
said among the questions to come be
fore the convention was whether tn
lands of the United States shall b,
made a source OF revenue by requiring
permits for the use of the public range
or whether the leasing shall prevail
He said that the federal governmen
IS a land owner had just as strong
right as private individuals, and n
stronger.
