business are just beginning to realize.
OF course just as it takes a little CAPT
tai to go hunting there, so, too, it
takes capital to make investments.
But it's a grand country for both hunt
er and investor-the last frontier of
the world,
Sewall said that a great situation
has been created by the building Of the
Uganda railroad, adding:
"Some railroad lines which are now
either building or are in plan await
ing the arrival Of construction gangs,
include a line from Nairobi almost due
north to Fort Hall, which is intended
as a feeder for the main line. 1t will
run into the wheat country. From
the Uganda railway a branch will run
south through my other land. A third
line, which has already been surveyed,
will tap the timber belt northeast of
Nairobi. The British government
builds railroads first and settles the
territory afterward."
While the Uganda railroad was un-
der construction Sewall acquired so
square miles of grazing ground for the
cultivation of cactus, thefber of which
is used in making rope. He says the
plant thrives with no attention and
that little expense attaches to its har-
vesting.
"The primary purpose of my visit
to your wonderful country, to reach
which / crossed the Indian, the Pacific
and the Atlantic oceans and travelled
several thousand miles overland, is to
learn something about commercial
wheat growing" said Sewall at the
close of the interview. "Fifteen thous-
and acres of land in British East AT
RIGA, owned by Lord Delameresand my
self, is now under cultivation, crude as
it is, being planted to wheat, and 1
am studying conditions here with the
view to putting $4,000 acres more un-
der the pillow. 1 expect to visit the
fields in your Big Bend and Palouse
wheat belts and will then go to Mon
tana and Oregon, travelling west and
south afterwards, thence to New York
and sail for Liverpool the latter part
of October and after a short stay in
England / expect to return to East AT
RIGA to begin active work in the de-
velopment of our plantation"

AMBROSE RANCH PROBABLE
SITE FOB NEW PRISON

The board Of prison directors went
10 the Ambrose property on the river
near Empire yesterday and viewed
the property. 1t apears that this is
the best piece of land that has been
offered to the directors so far for the
building thereon of a prison and this
will probably be accepted, providing
tho price is within reason. This piece
If land carries with it a sufficient
amount of water for all purposes and
ia fertile soil. The law passed states
that the ground purchased must con.
s;st of a hundred acres with a water
right and within Ormsby county. This
land lies about a mile and a half from
the capitol building and about a half
mile from the present prison site. This
would allow Of the prisoners who are
to be worked on the building Of the
new prison to live at the prison and
be transported to and fro to the
work in a short time. There is also
another advantage that the property
would have and that is that the state
water supply could be made to sup
ply the prison with drinking water at
a small expense.--Carson News.

Sewall bagged his first lion in Rumu-

after he had landed at Mombasa and
thence proceeded to Nairobi. In
speking of lion hunting, which few
Americans have enjoyed, he said:
"You see, you goad him into a
fight. Not that he is a coward or
anything of the sort, but he is used
to minding his own business. But

make it clear to him that you are af-

Moon, between Eentebbe and Ruwe-

reached the conclusion that was the

on the trek he stood on an elevation

that this was his opportunity to pick

his cabinet tomorrow the question OF
more daylight
A delegation from Cincinnati rep
resenting thet national daylight associ-

requested him to take the initiative
in a reform movement directed
against the clock The idea OF the
movement is to begin the day two
hours earlier during he summer time,
in order to give longer hours for af-
ternoon and evening recreation. 1t Is
proposed that on the first Of July the
clock shall be turned back two hours
the readjusted time to remain in effect
until October l.
1t was explained to the president
that little progress could be made in
the direction desired by the session
without the support Of the national
government,
AS railway mail schedules and ma
tional banking hours would be i'm

president suggested to his callers
that they take the matter up with

NE " SCHEDULE
FOR WESTERN
STATES
NEW RATES WILL BE REDUCTION
OF FIFTEEN PER CENT.
Railroads Decided to Do This In Pref
erence to Fighting the Matter
Through the Courts.

Chicago, May 1.-THE RecoriHer-
aid will say tomorrow: A new
freight schedule from all the territory
east of the Missouri river to all the
western states and cities not located
on the Pacific coast will go into effect
on the trans-contlnental lines July 1.
The, new rates will be based upon
the rates which the interstate COM
merce commission ordered the rail-
roads to put in from St Paul and Chi
cago to Spokane and will be an aver
age reduction under the present rates
OF about fifteen per cent
The railroads decided to do this in
stead Of fighting the order of the COM
mission in the courts. This decision
resulted from visit of j. G.. Stubbs.
traffic director OF the Hartman lines
to the commission In Washington last
week. Conferences are being held In
Chicago at which the new tariffs are
being prepared. rs
One of the officials who is attending
said:
The railroads have decided to try
to carry out the principle announced
by the commission In the Spokane rate
decision. instead of appealing to the
courts to prevent such reduction
of our revenue. The result will be
general reduction in all rates from the
vast territory east Of the Missouri
river to the territory west of the Mis-
souri, river save that along the coast.
1t will also mean reductions in many
of the rates from the west to all east
ern points. 1t will be voluntary re-
duction by the railroads solely in the
hope of satisfying the public opinion
as in the opinion of the commission
our rates are too high"
