Fixing of Farm Values.

As to the western farm values, they are
governed just as values are governed in
other districts OF the United States, or
other countries. The producing ability OF
the land in agricultural districts, determ-
ines the value OF the land. When this
condition has been fully attained on the
farm, the price OF the and will cease to go
higher. When from any cause the pro-
dueing ability OF the land declines. farm
land prices will drop down. Just as is OBJ
served In the WORKOUT farms OF New York
and some other eastern states, where
lands are being offered at $40 to S5 per
acre.
Nebraska farms. however, are not built
upon a rock foundation, with a scanty
surface soil, but have an uninterrupted
depth OF soil, that is readily recuperated
by use OF leguminous crops and without
the aid of commercial fertilizers.
The financial condition OF the early SOS
and those OF the present time will not
admit OF a comparison in any respect,

DR.. DAVIDSON TELLS OF WORK

Superintendent of Schools Davidson and
turned from Indianapolis, where they spent
the week attending the annual meeting of
the department of superintendent of the
National Educational association. Superin-
tendent Davidson was chosen president,
regarded as a high distinction, this body
being locke on as composed Of the great
est educational experts in the world.
THE meeting was remarkable for attend
ance," said superintendent Davidson.
There were more than 300 in excess of
the usual number. 1t was more remark
able still for the central thought Of all the
discussion, which was the child as the cen
ter Of the home, and the home, naturally,
as the basic unit of civilized society.
"All the papers and discussions were
confined closely to this line of thought,
with retardation and advancement Of the
pupil as the main themes. 1t was recog-
niztd that some children do not seem cap
able OF keeping up with their fellows in
the matter Of school studies; then, what
retards them? To find out this and apply
a remedy, that will be the great object Of
those investigators who are now d~evoting

Group Meetings, Too.
Aside from the general meeting each
day, attended by all the delegates, there
were sroup meetings, having to do with
gymnasium training. hygiene and medical
supervision OF the children IN school. Elk
perts in these particular branches were
present. and their discussions were inter-
esung as throwing intelligent sidelights on
the main problem.
"On the question OF retardation. the dis
cussions went to the questions of mental
alertness or sluggishness, aptitude, power
OF application, and so on, and also touched
the vocational bent OF child. Keen OBJ
servers and deep thinkers gave their opin-
ions, based on observation Of the most

WILL BRING SUIT
AGAINST JOHNSON
Deposed Manager Will Take
Legal Action to Recover
Position.

San Francisco. Cal, June s.--After
retaining an attorney to-day, George
Little declared that he would immedi-
ately take legal action to recover
his position as manager OF Jack John
son.
Little said the trouble between
himself and Johnson began when Lit
tie wrote for the mother and sister
OF the champion to come to the train
ing camp to do the cooking. Accord
ing to LittIcs story, Johnson objected
so strongly to this action that
fierce quarrel ensued. This trouble
eliminated In the row that led to the
ousting of Little and the probable
hiring OF Billy Nolan.
Threats of gun play became so FREE
auent to-day that excitement was
caused by a visit to Chief of Police
Martin by Little. According to the
chief, he was asked to settle the
quarrel. but declined on the ground
that he had no right to interfere in
an affair over which the civil courts
must exercise Jurisdiction:
Little said that besides the $4,000
forfeit money he declares he provided
for johnson, the champion owes him
$4,000 paid out on debts contracted by
his charge.
That part OF this has gone TO pay
the expenses of Johnson's brother.
Charles, who is said to be dying in
n Chicago hospital. Is Little's conten-
ton. This payment, according to Lit
tie, was resented by Johnson, who was
not inclined to authorize 1t.

May Go to Conference.

Washington, D. c., June 6.-The rail-
road bill probably will go to a joint
conference committee representing the
Senate and the House This had be-
come fairly certain in the informal
discussions in the House during the
day. and appears inevitable in any
event as the result of the conference
at the White House between President
Taft and the railroad presidents.
Since Saturday there has been a
movement on foot to have thegHouse
agree to the Senate bill in its entirety
and thus avoid q conference. The In
surgent Republicans and Democrats
have been represented as being strong
~ in favor of such a course The
Regulars. on the other hand. have in
sisted that the bill needed smoothing
out in several particulars.
Doubt arose to-day as to the degree
of llnanimity among the Democrats on
the subject. 1t appeared that they had
reached no decision as to their atti-
-tude, and it was evident from indi-
vidual expressions that the minority
party was badly divided on the ques-
ton. Representative Champ Clark
spent most of the afternoon trying to
get a. concensus of opinion from his
fellow-Democrats.
A conference lasting an hour or so
was held in the Democratic cloak room
between Senator'S Shively, of Indiana,
and Hughes. of Colorado. and Repre-
sentatives Clark. of Missouri. and un-
derwood. of Alabama 1t was the
opinion of those In the best position
to know that the Democrats would not
vote in sufficient numbers to insure
concurrence in the Senate amendments.
The whole question was. however
thrown into different status by the

Mrs. Emma S. Tenney filed an

charges of cruelty and infidelity here
tofore alleged by Mrs. Tenney against
her husband, bringing out little that

husband of conspiring to injure her
character in the hope of lessentns the
alimony and that he enlisted private
detectives and others to shame her out
of court with threats Of unpleasant
publicity. She alleges that Mr., Ten

Heretofore Verbout has behaved in

action yesterday, however, is inexcus-
able, and there should be no repeti-
ton of it. Mullaney. of Norfolk, was

The railroad presidents claimed they

They claimed they had sent written

the receipts of certain of the shippers

such notices. Finally they declared
that the increased rates had been filed

The railroad presidents told Presi !

been advised by their counsel that the

be sustained. The President replied
that he was willing to take chance as
to that, and he thought the best way
out for the railroads was for them TO
