We have enjoyed a remarkably
fine winter in this section so far. Dur
ing the past week Chicago and Mich

snow and sleet storms, and a train
was reported lost in Illinois prob
ablp became bewildered by the heavy
snow storm and wandered blindly
around over the country. At that
time we were having mild and beauti-
full weather. I'm fact it started to thaw
here about November Is and did not
freeze up again until January l5.

South Dakota for us.
There seems to be no country
but has it's drawbacks of some kind.
We are forcibly reminded of this from
reading the Genesee News, published
at Genesee, Idaho. 1t is commonly
understood that that section is strong
on the production of heavy yields of
wheat per acre. But their wheat crop
has of late years been damaged by
what the U. S. department of agricul-
ture calls the STRAW worm" This is
small yellowish white worm which is
the result of larva deposited in the
straw by an insect and sometimes a
STRAW worm, will be found at every
point Of the wheat stalk. The effect
is a small dark colored straw with a
correspondingly small head poorly
filled. Often spots of several acres
will be infested, nearly every stalk
containing n Or more worms. The
department advises a change of crop
as a remedy, but where the land is
not adapted to other crops the only
remedy is to summer fallow and thus
lose one crop entirely. There is then
no assurance that the field will not be
infested the second time after a crop
on the summer fallow. Every coun.
try has it's drawbacks, but as we read
of the discouraging features in other
sections we are led to believe more
and more that this section of the
Northwest has fewer disadvantages
and greater resources than any other
agricultural region in this country.

President Roosevelt's vindication
Is contained in letter to Secretary
Root
Among other things he says:
II cordially concur in your lind
ings, which is to the effect that
Judge Wiley is not only innocent
but Is attacked solely because OF the
fcarlcssness and integrity with which
be stamped out vice and crime in
Shanghai.
ut is clear that Judge Wiley has
been attacked not because he has
done evil bat because he has done
good The assault on him is simply
an impeachment of deCency and zeal
for the public good, and, If success
full, would tend to COW and discour-
age every honest public servant who
darcs to withstand the forces banded
together for evil and would do grave
damage to the honor and interest of
our country in the Orient.
"IR the attack were to succeed, the
beneficiarics would be every keeper
of a house of prostitution, every
swindling lawyer, every man who
lives by blackmail and corruption in
the cities of the Far East.
ut is not too much to say that this
assault upon Judge Wiley in the 10
tcrest of the vicious and criminal
classes is Il public scandal"
The Washington Star of Feb. II
says:
Representative Waldo of Brook
Ign, who has introduced in the
House a resolution Tor the impcaCh-
ment of Leblus X. Wiley. United
States Judge at Hongkong, China,
had talk with the President today,
presumably on this subject. Mr.. Wal
do evidently did not find the Presi-
dent in agreement with him, judg-
ing from some of his remarks. The
fact Is that charges against Judge
Wiley have been frequently before
the State Department, but all the iu-
vestigations made by that department
have sustained Judge Wiley and
more firmly established him In the
confidence of the Administration. The
President agrees with the State De-
Lartment that Judge Wiley has
made fine record at Ilongkong,
| where he Is said to have cleaned out
| criminals of all sorts and sizes with
| a lirmncss that has brought uown up
| on him the enmity of influential in
tcrests. II Is these interests that are
making things hot for him. The State
| Department some time ago investi-
| gated charges that Judge Whitley had
| greatly offended the Catholic Church
in Hongkong and elsewhere by a de-
cision in which he used harsh terms
as to the Pope and dignltaries of the
church. The investigation by the
| department, IL is said. disclosed that
| the decision merely referred to and
quoted the findings of a. higher
court
Judge Whitley is in Washington a
this time ready to answer charges al
impeachment proceedings. The Ju
dietary Committee of the House now
has the Waldo resolutions before It
and subcommittee is going into
the question fully, prepared to re-
mort to the full committee. Judge
Wiley has been here some time, hav
ing obtained leave of absence after q
prolonged stay in China.
