HAYTIAN POLITICAL
SITUATION CLEARING
General Simon Becomes PreSi.
dent Without Opposition.

Port au Prince, Hayti. Dec. 8.-The
political situation is clearing, at least
In certain directions. During the re-
cent interview here between General
Simon. the leader of the revolutionary
movement that resulted In the fight
of Nord Alexis from the capital, and
General Fouchard, an aspirant to the
presidency, who arrived at the head
Of band of followers, the latter said
that in view of the fact that God had
blessed the arms of General Simon"
he withdrew his candidacy in order
that the possibility of civil war be
averted. The proclamation of Gen.
eral Simon as president of the repub-
lie was then decided upon
The local population has accepted
the new order of things and General
Simon will shortly take possession OF
the national palace. General Turenne
Jean GILES, who was at one time
mentioned as a possible successor to
General Nord Alexis, has given assur-
ance that he will see to the main.
tainance of order In the department
of the North.
1t ia felt here that If General Simon
proceeds in accordance with the con-
stitution 1t soon will be possible to
bring together the national assembly.
All the senators and deputies at pres
ent In Port au Prince are convinced
that the election of General Simon by
large majority is assured, but it is
argued that the elections should be
held without loss of time so that the
other presidential candidates be not
able to bring forward an organized
resistance and in order also to avoid
American Intervention, which prob
ably would come in the case of dis
turbance of the peace.

ARCHBOLD AGAIN CALLED
Vice President of Standard Resumes
the Stand

New York, Dec. S.--John d. Arch
bold, vice president of the Standard
Oil company, was again a witness on
redirect examination In the federal
suit to dissolve the oil combination
under the Sherman antitrust law.
Mr.. Archbold's testimony had to do
with details of certain properties con-
zation. The Standard entered the
iubricating business extensively in
1878, said the witness. Practically
all the acquisitions of the Standard
from 1875 to 1882 were made by cash
which came from the treasures of
the Standard and its subsidiary COM
panies.
Mr. Archbold said that the estab-
lishment of marketing stations to
compete with the rivals of the Stand
ard naturally forced the small dealers
and jobbers gradually from the field
Some correspondence between oil pro-
lucers and the Pennsylvania geolog-
ical survey showing the apparent
limitations of crude oil production in
the early days was spread on the
record, with the evident design of
showing the hazards of the business
testified to by Mr.. Rockefeller and
Mr.. Archbold The witness said that
wax was an important by-product of
petroleum and this branch of the
Standards industry had increased
from 24,000.00 pounds in 1892 to 240,-
992,478 pounds in 1907

Inventory of Natural Resources.
Since the conference seven months
ago. when the president quickened
the interest of the entire nation in
one of its most perplexing problems,
the national conservation commission
has made an inventory of the natural
resources of the country This in.
ventory will be presented to Chair
man Pinchot, who in his report to the
president Jan. l will make recommen-
dations which both the work of the
commission and the joint conference
may suggest as vital in solving the
conservation problem.
The inventory is completed now as
far as present knowledge can go.
The members of the commission de-
clare and the country as whole is
convinced that the state of affairs is
one that requires immediate and ef-
fective action.
The problem that the joint confer
ence must help to solve is what form
this action must take and In what
direction 1t must be pushed to be
most effective. This is a task which
demands the shrewdest Judgment
which the national conservation com.
mission can call to its aid. The com
mission declares that it realizes that
it has reached the critical point in its
work. All the information it has gath.

GROWING BERRIES
IN GRAND VALLEY

Among the earliest and most
successful ventures i'm fruit
growing in Colorado was that of
strawberry raising. This plant
has been found well adapted to
irrigation fruit growing in this
state. especially when the right
varieties have been selected.
And. although the strawberry
is best adapted to soils of a some
what sandy character. still some
high yields have been secured
from comparatively heavy land.
The strawberry has been most sue
cessfully grown in the regions where
the apple succeeds best. Strawberry
growing as been largely practiced in
these regions on account of the quick
returns and because strawberries can
be grown between the rows of young
trees part of the time until the lat
ter come into bearing. This, to-
gether with the fact that strawberries
are, in ordinary seasons, a remuner-
atiye crop. make II one of the best
TO use while waiting for the trees to
reach bearing size.
IL is only in years Of exceptionally
heavy crops that there is anything
approaching overproduction of this
irult IN COLORADO, ana during later
years the supply has come far from
supplying the home markets. The
most extensive growing of straw
berries has been done in the regions
near Canon City. Denver, Boulder.
and Longmont. in the eastern dis
tricts. and in the counties of Mesa
and Montrose. on the Western Slope.
Many other districts are undoubtedly
adopted 10 this crop, at least those
where other fruits can be grown.

succeed in other regions. Compare
