A LOOK AHEAD.

1t Is always unsafe to guess what
ex-President Roosevelt will do at
any future time or under any set Of
circumstances-th law for each day
being announced that day, and
sometimes late in the afternoon.
But there are certain signs which,
IN the case of most men, would in.
dicate that MIR. Roosevelt will re-
turn more of an insurgent than n
staudpatter.
First, the Outlook, after its repre-
sentative Ind met Mr.. Roosevelt at
kartoum, contained two significant
editorials, one praising young Gar
field, an insurgent, and the other
weighing the Taft Administration
and severely criticising certain
phases OF 1t.
Second, he received Pinchot cor
daily and accepted his invitation Ia
speak at the conservation conven'
ton.
Third, the stenographer to whom
he dictated fifty-five letters gained
the impression that he would make
things interesting on his return.
Fourth, Senator Root goes to Eu
| rope to meet him after a long con
| ference with President Taft.
Fifth, so far as Is known he is mo-
in correspondence with the Presi
dent, whom he nominated ant
elected. The Commoner.

ozARR FRUIT CROP SAFE
Jay L. Torrey Brings Samples and
Predicts SEQ, 900, 900 Yield.

missouri will raise more than
$50, 1000, 600 worth Of fruit this year,
although the crops in other States
were ruined by the recent freeze, "
declared John II. Curran, chairman
of the State Board of immigration,
Thursday. "Col. Jay l.. Torrcy of
Fruitvilo has brought to st. Louis
unchanged Alberta peaches and
marvellous strawberries, which vim
dictate Missouri as IA fruit belt aud
make my task comparatively easy"
Torrcy says the southern slopes Of
the Ozarks drain off cold air just as
they do water. Like Commissioner
Curran, hc attributes the salvation
of two-thirds of MissOuri's fruit crop
to this remarkable circumstance
"In the Koshkonong Brandsville.
Fruitvillc fruit belt the OZarks slope
from 800 to 1000 feet In 10 miles, .
Torrey explained. "If water was
to gain a depth Of three feet on that
slope II would become ice. But the
slope keeps water rolling down to-
ward the Arkansas cotton fields. In
the same way these slopes force cold
air to slide down the mountains, in
stead of remaining in one position
Rushing water does not freeze in
cold weather, just so with rushing
air.
"Charles +. Bentley purchased
5000 acres in our belt after visiting
Idaho, Colorado and California. He
was convinced when he saw how
Ozark fruit withstood the recent

SAME OLD THREAT.

Senator Hale, In announcing his
intention to retire at the end of his
present term, warns his constituents
that Democratic success will mean
that "Maine's principal industries
and interests will be marked for
slaughter" 1t is the same old
threat that has been trotted out
every campaign for thirty years to
scare the timid voter into supporting
the predatory interests. 1t has
been worth more than one hundred
and fifty thousand dollars In salary
to Senator Hale and many millions
to those to whom the taxing power
has been surrendered. But so many
Republicans at last understand the
larcenous character Of the high tar
| iff laws that IL looks as IL the scar,

believe what corn was planted before
that snow will come up all right.
There has been some planted over,
but the most of IL we think will
make n fair stand. All the fruit
was killed during the last snow

abundance of all kinds of fruit II 1t
had not been for that cold wave.

In following the same, will reach

Paul Overall, the youngest
speaker, did well in reciting "Only

The singing by the choir of De-

shows crrcful practice.
The address by Prof Akers to the
graduates was well taken. AS his
apt delivery is well known, further
comment is unnecessary.
The closing address by Rev. s..
p. Brtc was n beautiful tribute to
study and the unfolding Of life.
The thanks of the district are due
to the efficiency displayed by the
teacher, Mrs. II. Mex. Strausser,
who has taught the school for two
terms. She has thoroughly demon
strated what can be done in that
line by an efficient, energetic teacher
who takes a personal pride in the
results achieved, not only in the
routine Of school duties, but in in
culcating the principles of truth,
virtue, honor, integrity and charity.
We are extremely sorry to note the
fact that this may be her last term,
and can only emphasize the fac
that If she continues in the manner
shown at DeLassus as teacher,
she has glorious future before her.

commence a battle royal for the pos
session Of water rights, valued at hun
dreds Of thousands Of dollars. Priori-
ties along the Platte river will wage a
contest that will call into the case
the best legal talent in Colorado, as
far as irrigation law is concerned.
Adams, Weld, Morgan and other east
ern counties are vitally interested in
the final outcome of the litigation, be-
fore Judge Whitford. who continued
the case until Dec. 5. The litigation
grows out Of an effort to transfer wa
ter from the Thomas, Highland and
Hodgins bitches in Morgan county, to
purchasers who have recently acquired
arid lands under those bitches, or
which are susceptible of cultivation by
means of water through those bitches.
