URGES SMALL EXPENDITURES.
Gen. Bixby Opposed to Large River
Appropriations.

Brig Gen. William II. Bixby chief OF
engineers. has determined to discourage
agitation for extraordinary expenditures
for river and harbor projects. Estimates
already submitted for public works OF this
character call for appropriations approx
mating &0.O0oOOO. Many Of these esti-
mates are said to be all out Of proportion
and before they reach Congress they will
be cut to the bone by Gen. Bixby and
his associates. Speaking OF the demand
for river and harbor appropriations. Gen.
Bixby said:
Newspapers can aid immensely in the
preparation of the next river and harbor
bill by urging conservative estimates for
projects. A yearly river and harbOr bill
is greatly to be desired. but II the news
papers insist upon their particular To-
oality getting all that the most enthusi-

large that its passage is out OF the ques-

to the international organization

Exporting to Europe the Phos-
pilates That We Can Never Get
Back Agatha Factor Bearing
on Cost of Living.

Abushel of wheat aud it's straw
contains one-third of a pound of
phosphorus. A bushel of corn,
with cob and stalk, contains one
fourth of a pound of phosphorus.
There is less than a ton of phos-
phorus in an acre of the average
virgin land of this country, count
ing as deep as the plough goes, say
seven inches.
Every crop takes some of this
phosphorus away. 1t takes nitro
gen and carbon and other things
away, too, but these things will
drift back, in the course of natural
processes. Phosphorus doesn't
come back. 1t must be put back.
Forty-five years of ordinary cul-
tivation will reduce the production
of an acre of land from 80 bushels
of corn to 40 or less. No matter

matter how much potassium, ETC.,

The only source from which phos-
phorus can come in any great
quantity is phosphate rock.
Inasmuch, then, as this Is an
agricultural nation, fundamentally,
our supply of phosphate rock is
one of our most precious posses
lsions. What are we doing to con-
serve this precious heritage?
In the past 20 years we have
sold to Europe practically all our
available supply of az per cent

The wheat that we have raised in

have exported in this vast total of
rock.
We are selling our precious
heritage of phosphorus for mess

MEXICAN CARBON TO
LEW LAPS INTG u. s.?

What promises to become an in
ternational sensation is likely to
develop from the hearing of Juan
Sanchez Azcona, the. Mexican po-
litical refugee who is being held in
Washington upon the charge of OBJ
tanning money under false pre-
lenses. Everybody conversant
with the methods of the Mexican
government knows full well that
the charge is placed against Az
cone merely for the purpose of Sc
curing his extradition,l so that he
may be killed or buried in an
underground dungeon by the tyr
annical Diaz, who has slaughtered
thousands of his subjects who de-
manded liberty, and even impris-
Ioned and outlawed the men who
dared to run against him for pres
ident.
1t comes from a reliable source
THAT Azcona, who was a newspa-
per man in Mexico, is aware of a
secret treaty or alliance that has
been entered into between Diaz
and the government of Japan, un-
der the provisions of which coolie
labor will be permitted to swarm
into Mexico, and in the event of
war with the United States Japan
csc troops may be landed on Mex
lean soil.
If Azcona can prove bis claim it
will create the greatest Juror in
labor circles that has been known
in the present generation. Doubt
less the politicians, too, will be
shocked to learn of the treachery
of Diaz, after Uncle Sam has for
years so obligingly played police

the terminal with dirty face and

The railroad takes the view that
when trainmen, on approaching a
terminal, desert their posts of duty
to wash up" accidents are liable
to occur.
Buff Cleanliness is next to
'godliness," and to wash your face
is to lose your job, does it follow
that to hold a job is almost un-
godly? A number of other inter
testing conclusions might be reach
