Theatrical companies are the latest
to feel the effect of the determined
fight which the United States govern
ment Is making to keep out the Chi
nese. For years such companies have
been allowed to come from Canada with
sealed cars and under bond, but this
VIII not be allowed hereafter. Charges
have been made that Chinese are being
smuggled in with the sealed cars of
theatrical troupes, and hereafter all cars
will be thoroughly searched One of
David Beiasco's companies, THE War
rens OF Virginia." was held up on Its
way from Toronto to Buffalo. While
no inconvenience was caused to the
members OF the company, there are
possibilities of much Inconvenience and
| annoyance under certain circumstances
and 1t is likely that managers through
out the country will take up considera-
ton OF the matter.

THE PACKERS BURNED
INCRIMINATING
DOCUMENTS
According to Chicago Story
Papers Which Would Prove
Rebatlng Have Been Lost.
FEDERAL OFFICERS
WILL CALL WITNESSES

Chicago. Jan 22.--The Record
Herald today prints the following;
thousands of documents some of
which, it is said, would prove the
packing concerns guilty of rebating,
have been burned by the companies in
the stockyards district since the gov
crnment started its investigation into
the affairs of Morris and company
according to word received by the
United States district attorney.
'There was quick action by the au-
thorities. Secret service men We're
hurried to the stock yards to learn
what employees had sorted and burn
ed the documents and it is proposed
to subpoena them before the grand
jury,
In spite of this attempt to block the
investigation the federal authorities
are planning to proceed. There still
remain the files Of the railroad COM
nanics which contain duplicates of
much of the correspondence on the
matter Of damage claims. There is no
fear Of the railroads burning these for
such action Is forbidden by law.
-. ogden Armour ridicules the idea
that any packing house Of standing
would resort to destroying its records
because OF fear of prosecution al
though he admitted he has heard a
rumor that there have been few
fires at the stock Yards

Probably be a Failure as Re
suit of Disagreement.
ALL THE DELEGATES
NAY BIZ RECALLED

London, Jan. 22.--There is a grow
ing impression here that the powers
Will not be able to reconcile their diff
ferences and that the international
conference on naval affairs which
opened here last month, is doomed to
failure.
A meeting called for this morning
was cancelled ana committee meet
ings to discuss technical subjects will
not be held until the delegates whose
insistence that the views of their gov
crnments shall prevail brought about
the deadlock, have received more def
mite instructions
America is included in this group.
The American delegates assert that
they are ready to make reasonable
concessions.
This conference was called by Great
Britain to frame a code Of laws f
naval warfare and to establish an in
ternational prize court as recommend
"a by The Hague conference.

PLANNING TO PLANT
FIVE HUNDRED ACRES
An Expert Will be In Charge of
the Work and Experiment will
Show What This Section
Can do With That
Crop.

A meeting which has for its object
the encouragement of the beet sugar
industry in the vicinity of Albuquerque
and which is therefore of the great
est Importance to farmers, business
and professional men will be held at
o'clock tonight at the Commercial
club. j. h. Gauger, of the Holly Beet
Sugar company, of Holly, Colorado,
will attend the meeting for the purpose
of explaining the plan of culture pro-
posed for this section of the country.
The experimental planting of sugar
beets here last year was a success
IL one way. The beets produced ex-
Ceeded in the amount of sugar those
raised in Colorado and they were
much larger. The quantity however,
fell far below expectations, due most
ly to the lack of attention and interest
in the project, and the lack of know
ledge of the proper methods of cultl-
vaton
Next season it is planned to interest
enough farmers so that at least 500
acres can be planted in beets An ex-
| pert viii take UP his residence in AL
buquerque during the season and will
/ visit all farms where sugar beets are
| being raised, explaining the best

care Of The evea z he beets raised
VIII De utbn1ca Ia the productions OF
sugar and careful tests will be made
| so that the possibilities of this vicin-
! ity for sugar beet growing will be
known in detail.
on this account the meeting tonight
| will probably be well attended. 1t
is believed by those who are the or
isinators of the project that this sec
tion of New Mexico can raise more
beets and better beets than can any
other part of the territory or Colo
rado. If the experiment this year
| proves that assertion, Albuquerque
will be in line for a sugar beet factory
just as soon as sufficient beets are as
sured. With this industry in pros
pect the farmers and business men
generally are taking an interest in the

lively small sums needed for the pro-
lection, use, and improvement Of all
forests still owned by the government,
and to enact laws to check the waste
ful destruction of the forests in prl-
vate hands. There are differences Of
opinion as to many public questions;
but the American people stand nearly
as a unit for waterway development
and for forest protection.
We know now that our mineral re
sources once exhausted are gone for
ever, and that the needless waste OF
them costs us hundreds of human lives
and nearly $300,O00,000 a year. There
fore. let us undertake without delay
the Investigations necessary before
our people will be in position,
through state action or otherwise, TO
put an end to this huge loss and
waste, and conserve both our mineral
resources and the lives Of the men
who take them from the earth.
l desire to make grateful acknow. j.
edgment to the men, both in and out
Of the government service, who have
prepared the first inventory Of our
natural resources. They have made
great step forward.
The policy of conservation is per-
haps the most typical example of the
general policies which this govern
ment has made peculiarly its own
during the opening years of the pres
ent century. The function of our
government is to insure to all its citi-
zens, now and hereafter, their rights
to life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness. If we of this generation de-
stroy the resources from which our
children would otherwise derive their
| livelihood, we reduce the capacity of
our land to support population, and
so either degrade the standard of liv-
ing or deprive the coming generations
of their right to life on this contin-
ent. If we allow great industrial or
/ carnations to exercise unreEulated
control of the means Of production
and the necessaries of life, We de-
prieve the Americans of today and OF
! the future Of industrial liberty, a. right
! no less precious and vital than po-
| litical freedom. Industrial liberty
was a fruit of political liberty, and IN
| turn has become one of its chief sup
ports and exactly as we stand for po-
| litical democracy so we must stand

Portland ore, Jan. 22.--The thaWs
and heavy rains which have been gem
eral I'm Washington and northern ore
gJn last week have brought disaster
to the railroads. The Northern Pa

the Cascades OF Columbia and is also
tied up.
Spokane Is practically cut off from

poration Is neither to be resented as
usurpation nor permitted as priv
! ilege by the corporations. but on the |
contrary to be accepted as duty ana
exercised as "a right by the govern
ment in the interest of all the people.
The efficiency of the army and the
/ navy has been increased 80 that our
! people smay follow in peace the great
work OF making this country better
place for Americans to live in, and
our navy was sent round the world
for the same ultimate purpose. All the
acts taken by the government during
the last seven years and ali the poll
cies now being pursued by the gov
ermment, lit in as parts of a consist
ent whole.
our publicsland policy has for it's
aim the use of the public land so that
it will promote local development by
the settlements OF home makers; the
policy we champion IS to serve all the
people legtimately and openly in
stead of permitting the lands to be
converted, illegitimately and under
cover. to the private benefit of a few.
Our forest policy was established so
that we might use the public forests
for the permanent public good, IN
stead of merely for temporary private
gain. The reclamation act, under
which the desert parts of the public
domain are converted to higher uses
for the general benefit, was passed so
that more Americans might have
homes on the land.
These policies were enacted into
Iaw and have justified their enact
ment. Others have failed 60 far, %
reach the point of action. Among
such is the attempt TO secure public
,control of the open range and thus TO
convert its benefits to the use of the
small man, who is the homemaker. in
stead of allowing it to be controlled
by a few great cattle and sheep own
ers.
The enactment of a pure food law
was a recognition of the fact that the
public outweighs the right to private
gain and that no man may poison the
people for his private profit, The en-
ployers' liability bill recognized the
controlling fact that while the en-
ployer usually has at stake no more
than his profit, the stake Of the en-
plOye is a living for himself and his
family.
