WEALTH IN WESTERN LANDS.

The great crops of 1909 are making
themselves felt in freight congestion
at some points, in upward revision OF
estimates Of the money value of the
years farm products and in a quicken
ing of the pulse of industry and trade.
That they will bring the country a
year of unusual prosperity is doubted
by nobody. Next year or the year
after the crops may not be so abun-
dant, but there is never a total crop
failure. Even in the drought OF 1901.
the short corn crop had it's compensa-
ton in an immense yield of wheat. d
versified farming and improved culti-
walton lessen the probabilities of fail
ure in any considerable percentage of
the crops. The increasing yields and
the growing average of prices are max
ink afiuent the landowners and the
thrifty farmers wEo few years ago
had cause to complain Of poverty. The
improving comforts o. rural life and
the great financial indie pendence are
broadening the intelligence of the
farmers and the growing value Of the
lands is building up land-owning ar
istocracy in the west that is gaining
in political, social and economic infu-
ence. Theirs is an influence of con-
servatism.

1t may be impossible for the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington OF
any other human power to succeed in
every attempt to cause two blades Of
grass to grow where one grew before.
But there is no doubt of the efficient
work done by the department. in slim
ulating crop growing wherever poSs-
ible Now the experts of tat branch
of the government are turning atten-
ton to opportunities in the Panama
canal zone, which is under American
jurisdiction 1t is believed enough fruit
and vegetables, including those of
both the temperate and tropical eli
mates. can be produced to meet the
requirements in this direction of the
$4,000 persons now residing on the
zone. If this can be done a fresh tri-
umph will be scored for the depart
ment and important economic results
will follow. And ali that will be in
line with the practical ideas which
govern the department of agriculture.

After killing the deer they then trav-
eled south along the east side of Ring
mes Land to the point indicated on the
chart, where they killed another deer.
They then went east across the
south part of Crown Prince Gustav
sea to the south end of Heiberg Land,
then down through Norwegian bay,
where they secured some bears, but
not until after they had killed some of
their dogs, to the east side of Ora
ham Island; then eastward to the lit
tie bay marked "Eid's Fiord" on Sver-
drup's chart; then southwest to Hell's
Gate and Simmons peninsula.
Here for the fist time during the
entire journey, except as already
noted off Cape Thomas H. Hubbard,
they encountered open water. On this
point the boys were clear, emphatic,
and unshakable. They spent good
deal of time in this region, and finally
abandoned their dogs and one sledge,
took to their boat, crossed Hell's Gate
to North Kent, up into Norfolk Inlet,
then back along the north coast of
Colin Archer Peninsula to Cape Vera,
where they obtained fresh elder duck
eggs. Here they cut the remaining
sledge off, that is shortened it, as it
was awkward to transport with the
boat, and near here they killed wal.
rus.
From Cape Vera they went on down
into the southwest angle Of Jones
Sound, where they killed a seal;
thence east along the south coast OF
the sound, killing three bears at the
point noted on the map, to the PENN
sula known as Cape Sparbo on the
map, about midway on the south side
of Jones Sound. Here they killed
some musk-oxen and, continuing east,
killed four more at the place indi-
Gated on the chart, and were finally
stopped by the pack ice at the mouth
of Jones Sound. From here they
turned back to Cape Sparbo, where

JAPANESE IN CONGRESS.
May Soon Have Controlling Vote in
Hawaii.

San Francisco, Gala Japanese as
a delegate from Hawaii in the house
of representatives of the United
States.
There is a possibility of that very
contingency some time in the not too
distant future And that very likeli-
hood is causing the Hawaiians to sit
up nights and worry over the prob
lem. 1t is no secret that there are on
ly about 10000 Americans over on the
Paradise of the Pacific" as against
something like $4,000 Japanese. More
than that, the Japs are gaining every
day.
Conservative American residents in
Hawaii forsee the time when the Jap
anese will control the voting strength
of the island by comfortable mar
gin. To one who fears the yellow
peril" it must also ge incidentally
mentioned that there are enough vet
Grams of the Russo-Jap war among the
foreign population of Hawaii to equal
the entire standing army of the Unit
ed States.
The Japs are crowding out all other
classes of labor there. Since the first
generation of these people are entitled
to vote as American citizens, If they
are born on the islands, the fear
Americans have in Hawaii that the
next twenty years will see the little
men of the far east i ncontrol, is a
very real and palpable one.

Dorothy and the Stork.

When little Dorothy Walworth was
introduced to her baby brother In the
First Methodist Episcopal Parsonage
in Yonkers, N. Y, she manifested in
tense interest, but was not astonished.
II knew he was coming" she ex-
claimed; Il knew it."
Pressed for an explanation, the five
year-old said. II was down to the
Bronx zoo the other day and saw
the stork in his cage. recognized
him by the black stripes on his wings
that papa said were there. Well, when
the stork was standing alone on one
leg, went close to him and whispered
in his ear that wanted him to bring
me baby brother or sister. He didn't
say anything, but knew he would do
it, because he bent his head toward
me and winked an eye"

Indians Would Register.

LIE Beau, S. D.-The registration
office here was invaded by band
of 10 Indians. The Spokesman ex-
planned that they had come to regis
ter and that they had already selected
their land alon gthe extension of the
Minneapolis C st. Louis railroad. The
officer in charge of the registration
was nonplussed for time, but finally
announced that the Indians colud not
register unless they had decided to
leave their tribe.
1t took long time to explain just
what their rights were, and while the
chief was discussing the matter with
registration officials, the band stood
around in stolid silence. When the
chief told them the terms under which
they could register, there were grunts
of disapproval and the band slowly
filed out.

1t developed that DR.. Cook had told
these boys, as he told Mr.. Whitney
and Billy Pritchard, the cabin boy,
Peary or any of us anything about
their journey, and the boys stated DR..
Cook had threatened them If they
should tell anything.
The narrative of these Eskimos is
as follows:
They, with DR.. Cook, Francke and
nine other Eskimos, left Anoratok,
crossed Smiths Sound to Cape Sabine.
slept in Commander Peary's old house
in Payer Harbor, then went through
Rice strait to Buchanan bay. After a
few marches Francke and three Eski-
mos returned to Anoratok.
Dr. Cook, with the others, then pro-
ceeded up Flagler bay, a branch of
Buchanan bay, and crossed Files
mere Land through the valley pass at
the head of Flagler bay, indicated by
Commander Peary in 1898, and utilized
by Sverdrup in 1899, to the head of
Sverdrup's bay Fiord" on the west
side of Ellesmere Land.
Their route then lay out through
this ford, thence north through Sver-
drup's "Heuerka Sound" and Nansen
strait.
On their way they killed musk oxen
and bear, and made caches, arriving
eventually at point on the west side
of hansen strait (shore of Axel Hell
berg Land of Sverdrup), south of
Cape Thomas Hubbard.
A cache was formed here and the
four Eskimos did not go beyond this
point. Two others, Koolootingwah and
Inughito, went on one more march
with DR.. Cook and the two boys,
helped to build the snow igloo, then
returned without sleeping.
(These two Eskimos brought back
letter from DR.. Cook to Francke.
dated the seventeenth of March. The
two men rejoined the other four men
who had been left behind, and the six
returned to Anoratok, arriving May Z.
This information was obtained not
from the two Eskimo boys, but from
the six men who returned and from
Francke himself, and was known to
us in the summer of 1908, when the
Roosevelt first arrived at Etah. The
information is inserted here as supple
mentAry to the narrative of the two
boys.)
After sleeping at the camp where
the last two Eskimos turned back, DR..
Cook and the two boys went in q
northerIy or northwesterIy direction
with two sledges and twenty-oad dogs,
one or more march, when they en-.
countered rough ice and lead of open
water. They did not enter this rough
ice, nor cross the lead, bus turned
westward or southWestward d short
distance and returned to Heiberg Land
at a point west of where they had left
the cache and where the four maR had
turned back.
