MILO A. ROOT.
This letter and others to Attorney
M. j. Gordon, formerly attorney for
the Great Northern, from Judge Milo
A. Root, who resigned last month
3. from the supreme bench following
sensational disclosures concerning
his official acts which have been in
vestigated by committee from the
state bar association, have been pro-
cured by the Spokesman-Review.
Whether the construction put upon
the letter by Judge Root that it is
only request for the payment of a
5000 political campaign fund or
whether the letter is an importunate
call for money promised Root by Cor
don as bribe is question which
is now before the state bar associa-
tion.
The original letters are now with
the Root investigating committee in
Seattle, but before reaching the COM
mittee they passed through several
hands, and several copies of them are
in existence. 1t is upon the text OF
these and other letters that the cim-
mittee will chiefly base it's report
upon the Root-Gordon matter.
Embarrassed by Promises.
Explanation satisfactory. How
| ever, crowd them a little when con-
venient as am quite embarrassed by
promises made by reason Of assur-
ances received.

ARID LANDS ID BE INVESTIGATED
Secretary Wilson Announces Plan of Interest to the
 Western Country.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Conditions ex- isting in the arid lands of the west are to be learned through a system atic survey this winter by scientists of the bureau of soils, according to an interview with Secretary of Agricul- ture Wilson. One of the most inter- esting species of work We have done this year." said the secretary, lis to make an inquiry into the possibili- ties of the dry region of the United States-that part of our country which lies west of the Tooth meridian, to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. A great many homeseekers are going out into that country, so it occurred to us it would be wise to ascertain what the conditions are, through a survey by the scientists of the bureau of soils.
 ''The soil, aT we know, varies from , drifting white sand to valleys that will produce crops of certain kinds with out irrigation. The federal govern ment arranged to use the proceeds from the sale of public lands to ir- rigate the dry lands in the west, but after it has used all the water now | flowing in all the streams, there will still remain very large percentage of that country that can not be reach ed by irrigation, and that comes un- der the care of this department.

RECIPE FOR GOOD BREAD.
'ngre 5ierts and Composition of the
 Staff of Life.

A new and good recipe for making bread is as follows: To one quart of equal parts water and sweet milk, lukewarm, add two cakes of com pressed yeast and stir until completely dissolved. Then add a teaspoonful of salt end three tablespoonfuls of sugar When these are dissolved stir in we'll sifted warm flour until a dough is formed sufficiently stiff to turn out from the miXing-bowl on the mould ing board in a mass. The amount of four required to do this is about three quarts. To this flour may be added a large teaspoonful of lard; the result is excellent. Knead this dough, add ing. if necessary. a sprinkle of flour from time to time until it becomes smooth and elastic and ceases to stick to the fingers or the board. Then put il into a well-gTeased earthern bowl, brush lightly with melted lard, cover with a woolen cloth or blanket, and hours, or until light. Then knead it thoroughly and again place it in the bowl. covering as before, and put away for about an hour In a warm place until light. Then form gently into loaves, place in greased bread ra'is. and brush over with melted lard. When light. bake 45 minutes in an oven that will brown four in five min utes.

IY. M. {. 4. RUNNERS

Silver Tube Delivered From New York to Office of the
 President.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-Presi- dent Roosevelt, at 6:45 o'clock to- night, received at the White House from the hands of Garden Leech, tHe last boy runner in the relay run from New York to Washington, the silver tube containing a message to the pres ident from Richard c. Morse, of the International Y NJ. c. A. Attired in a red sweater, tight trousers and ten his shoes, having finished an exriting tennis game only half an hour before, the president was seated in ais private office in the executive building when running attire, was ushered in by Rudolph Forster, one of the presi dents secretaries. and John H. Sel- man, of the local Y. NJ. c. A. 'I believe in athletics as a means to an end. and see no reason why men should have round shoulders" said the president in accepting the mes sage.
 When told that nearly 1000 speedy boys had handled the message since it left New York Friday afternoon, he
 manifested great interest. He charac-
 terized as particularly praiseworthy the record made by the 200 Washing ton boys who brought the message here from Baltimore, a distance of forty miles, in three hours aud ten minutes. Secretary Forster said the contents of the message would be
 made public tomorrow, when it is
 probable the presidents reply will be given out.

tained by the city. They explained that some of the bricks were loose, and that the cement had not been properly laid between them.
 Callaghan arose and addressed the council at th's point He said that it was impossible to lay the old bricks as well as new ones; that he believed he had placed them as we'll as anyone else could under the circumstances. Barkdoll stated that there was no use in laying old bricks, as there were plenty of new ones. The mayor stat ed that the bid called for the taking up, cleaning and re-layfng of the old ones.
 The street commissioner, called on as authority, stated that the bricks between the street railway tracks had been relaid so they were solid, and not loose, as those relaid on Main street; that Callaghan had laid ais bricks too close together and had made his cement too thick. Haines expressed the opinion that he did not know what the result would be; that the bricks might settle and the job be O. K, or that they might work loose and the whole thing have to be done over. Mccullough volunteered the in- formation that the bricks were set ting and would probably be all right later. Upon motion, Barkdoll dissent ing, the council then allowed all but S5S of Callaghan's claim.
 There was considerable discussion during the councils session as to the restrictions to be placed on buildings to be erected in the burned district. The general opinion seemed to be that redwood shingles, which do nor ignite easily and burn very slowly be allowed on residences. Action in the matter was postponed until a later meeting.
 The council adjourned until tomor- row night, when they will meet to open bids for the street improvement and water works bonds. It is under stood that at least one bid, at par, will | be made, and probably others, as they are seldom received until the last day.

BLAMES POLICE
 FOR HAAS SUICIDE
Continued from First Page.)

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23.-Tahng of testimony in the inquest of Morris Haas, the ex-convict who committed suicide, after having shot Heney, was interrupted today by a verbal clash between Chief of Police Biggy ana Louis Ward, of the district attorneys office. The dispute arose over the right of the police to exclude Burns, the agent of the district attorneys of fee. from the cell where Haas had been confined as a prisoner.
 Chief Biggy interrupted Prosecutor Ward to declare that Burns was subor- dinate to any representative of the pol ce department, and Ward retort- ed by asserting the district attorney would shortly take steps which would finally settle this and all other ques- tions relating to the powers of the chief of police.
 Chief Biggy replied that the sooner such steps were taken the better he would be pleased. He concluded with a complete refusal to recognize the district attorney as his superior in the preservation of law and order in the city.
 ! Apart from this, the greater part oi the session was devoted to hearing testimony of police officers and trust ies from the county jail, who had knowledge of the circumstances sur rounding the imprisonment and sui. eide of Haas. Sergeant Burke and Policeman Roble both professed ig norance of the manner in which Haas obtained possession of the derringeI , with which he killed himself.

 the case are intensely interested in it, and will devote much time to trying to ferret out the motive and the name of the perpetrator of the crime. One of them expressed the opinion last night that If the man was unarmed at the time of his death, revenge must have been the motive. On the other hand, had robbery been the motive and the man unarmed, 1t is hardly probable that murder would have been resorted to. If robbery was the mo- tive and the man was armed, an ef- fort to trace the weapon which he was robbed may result in something tangible. An effort will also be made to determine in which direction the buggy tracks about the body lead, to find out if possible any vehicles that may have been in that neighborhood about the time the crime is supposed to have been committed.
