ROBINSON TO PUSH
 NEW DRAINAGE BILL
Provides Money for Surveys of Swamp Wet and OyerflOWed Lands in
 the Mississippi Valley.

Washington, Mar. 2.-Congressman Robinson of Arkansas, who introduced in the SiXtieth Congress bill di- recting the secretary of agriculture to make surveys of the swamp, wet and overf1owed lands within the Mississippi valleys and to ascertain what areas are susceptible of reclam- nation and to devise plans and make maps and charts for the drainage of such lands, has reintroduced his bill in the present Congress and will make another effort to have the same reported by the committee and passed.
 The bill carries $200,000 and it's benefits are not confined to any one locality, but to the Mississippi valley in general.
 Mr. Robinson said today of his bill: During the last Congress I made several efforts to secure the passage of this bill, and at one time hoped that the committee would act favor ably upon it. The only provision in the agricultural bill which recently passed the house was an appropria- tion of $72,000. This was stricken out in the house on a point of order made by Mir. Perkins of New York. This happened on the very day that MT. Cole and others appeared before the speaker in behalf of the drainage survey investigations in the St. Fran cis basin. An amendment carrying an additional sum will likely be plac- ed in the bill in the Senate, but of course any provision will have to be general in order to pass. Moreover there is no particular reason why the benefits of legislation of this sort should be limited to the St. Francis basin. The sunk lands in that part of the country constituting the prin- cipal portions of it's swamp and over flowed lands are now claimed by syn dicates, and a bill is pending before Congress to quiet the title to these lands in the grantees of the St. Fran cis Levee Board. The benefits of leg islation of this sort ought not to be confined to any one area, and it is my purpose, if possible, to secure such legislation as will look to the reclam- mation of the swamp lands in every part of Arkansas and in other states having lands of similar character. I will present brief to the Commit tee on Agriculture and supplement it with an oral statement as soon as the committee will hear me.

BOWMAN TO HANG
 FRIDAY, APRIL 8
White Man Convicted of Criminally Assaulting 10.Year.O Old Girl at Ft. Smith, Will Pay Penalty
 With Life.

Little Rock, Feb. Ex-Governor Don aghey fixed Friday, April s, as tn date for the execution of William Bowman, a white man, convicted 0 criminally assaulting Ella Banks, 10-year-old girl at Fort Smith in Au gust, 1908.
 The execution will take place a Waldron, in Scott County. After a, indictment had been returned agains Bowman he secured change of ven ue to Scott county on the ground tha1 he could not get an impartial tria in Sebastian county. For this reason the execution will be in Scott coun- ty, where the verdict of guilty was originally returned.
 Bowman has made an unusual fight for his life, attacking the indictment on many technicalities, but chiefly or that of jurisdiction of the Sebastian Circuit court.
 The crime occurred in what is known as the "Choctaw Strip" in the western portion of Fort Smith, a strip of land that received that title because it was originally part ot the old Indian Territory. By an act of Congress of 1905 and subsequent act of the Arkansas General Assem- bly this strip of land was added tc Ctofa of ArlyoncaS
 In his attack on the indictment Bowman's attorney set up the ground that these acts were unconstitutional because in violation of former Indian treaty rights. and that, if the crime occurred at all it was in Oklahoma and not in Arkansas territory
 On this ground the case came to the Supreme court. and it was nearly two years before it reached it's final stages, the State Supreme court up- holding the validity of the legislative and congressional acts and knocking out Bowman's contention as to uncon- stitutionality.
 The case was finally affirmed by the Supreme Court December 20, and on January 31 of this year the court finally denied the petition for rehear- ing, thus closing all possible hope of clemency through the courts.
 The fixing of the date for eXecu- tion by the governor this morning closes the case officially unless there is some effort made to secure con- mutation or pardon.

FAMILY IS SAVED
BY BUSY PORKER
TIMELY WARNING OF A PET PIG
SAVED THE LIVES OF A FAMILY
DURING THE FLOOD NEAR
GWYTHER.

Mandan Pioneer: They have pig
down near Gwyther that will put the
famous geese of Rome out OF business.
according to story that is told by
one Of the residents down there.
The pig in question has been favor
ed with a bringing up a little better
than the average porcine, and might
be styled pet A few weeks ago
when the water from the Missouri was
rising and making things lock gloomy
for those living on the lowIands, Mr..
Pig kept up such an incessant squeal-
ing that he awoke the family who got
out in the middle Of the night to dis
cover that they were being surround
ed by water and that the timely warn
ing Of the pig enabled them to get out
OF the way Of danger. Before leaving
the premises however they took the
pig into a shed and placed 1t UP on an
old straw bed where it was thought
the water would not rise. The water
reached the room and bed tick and
pork began to go UP. He escaped a
watery grave however but when the
family got back, after being driven
from home for couple of days, they
found that the pig had eaten up the
bed, for unfortunately the folks had
forgotten that pigs have appetites.

county offices on account of factional
strife within the republican ranks. This

More Seed Is sown by Farmers This
Year Than Ever Before.

Wahpeton, N, D., April 19.--Seeding
In this county is over and upon close
investigation 1t has been found that
considerable more barley has been
sown this year than ever before.
From study OF crop yields the past
five years, 1t has been found barley
is one of the most profitable crops
grown in the county. While oats Gre
ate a larger yield barley yields a crop
Of grain considerably heavier although
1t Is not so bulky. Barley will also
yield fully 500 pounds more to the
acre than wheat and at least twice as
many pounds as flax. 1t has the ad-
vantage over fax in being a good crop
for cleaning lands Of weeds and 1t may
often be fed on the farm at a profit
over the market price.

WOMAN INSANE.
Believed That Attempts Were Being
Made on Her Life.

Forman, N. d.. April 19-F Fearing
that If she went to her home that she
would be poisoned, Mrs. Mary Pride
decided to remain out of doors on
the prairie all night, alone. Only the
fact that she was caught by two men
after q hard search prevented her
from carrying out her intentions.
Later she was brought before the
county insanity committee and on
Saturday she was committed to the
state asylum for the insane. The
woman believed that she was being
slowly poisoned and at various times
within the last few days refused to
eat.
