G. NJ Martin displays his .ignor-
ance again in his last TRADE. He
says that in certain case dismissed
by County Attorney Field, because
of the absence of the prosecuting
witness, the county attorney should
have put the prosecuting witness
under bond for his appearance. This
was a misdemeanor case, brought in
the district court, and there is no
law to put a prosecuting witness un-
der bond. Such procedure can only
apply after a preliminary hearing is
had and the defendant held for
trial, and such things do not occur
in misdemeanor cases. The county
attorney was compelled to bring
this prosecution just as Me did, and
had no authority whatever to hold
the prosecuting witness. 1t was a
case in which the witness broke
faith and disregarded his honor.
Martin doesn't know the law, that s

Question: When Representative
Griffin voted against the bill to
prohibit the Caucasian and the Eth
opian from marrying did he repre-
sent you or did he misrepresent
you? If he represented you, vote
for him; if he misrepresented you,
vote for ]. n. Herr who will vote in
favor of such a bill. We shall see
after the votes are counted next
Tuesday how the people of Barber
county stand on this question.
Barbour County index., 1910-11-02

One of the reasons urged by Rep
resentative Griffin for his eager de-
sire to be returned to the legislature
is that he wants to assist in the
election of the Hon. Bob Stone to
the Speakership, and in return for
his assistance, he claims to be in
line for some of the very best COM
mittee assignments and thus redeem
himself from his last terms dor
mant record We have observed by
an examination of Mr.. Griffin's rec
ord, that he has followed Stones
leadership veE closely and if Mr.
Griffin should be elected we would
of course, be delighted to see him
land the best committee assign
ments. But, after alive would rath'
er see him do his Stone work as g
private citizen.

The results of research are being
printed and literature of the farm Is
growing.
The states east of the Alleghenies
are foremost in commerce, m6nufac-
turing arts and sciences, wealth and
influence. They have overlooked ag-
riculture, permitting their soils to de-
teriorate and reaching out to the west
for the fod products. The soil robbar
began his baneful practices there, anu
has gone westward until the light
rainfall regions refused to yield pro-
ftably.
THE deterioration Of the eastern
soils would have been prevented long
ago had there been no cheap rich soils
in the Mississippi valley, or had de-
mand been closer UP to supply. West
ern lands are dearer and have gone
beyond the reach of poor people The
lands of the east and south are re-
duced n productive power but they
are cheap, they are convenient to
good markets, they can be improved
and they will be, bit the method by
which a farm is improved is quite
different from that by which it was
reduced. Ignorance permitted the
soil to become unproGuctive, the high
est intelligence is required TO bring
back fertility
Importation of Food Unwise.
importation of food will bring about
a change in our economies, a revolu-
ton in our policies, which may be
avoided by better farming and a COM
prehensive view of the situation by
those who deal in big things, whether
carrying, commerce, manufacturing
or finance.
Our people are not grouped TO adj
vantage. Too many grew crops dur
ing the last half of the 18th cen
fury. Farming was 81 poor business
during that period and did not invite
people. The abundance of meats and
grains and low prices for them gave
little encouragement to the young
farmer to devote his life to agricul-
ture. The farm went to the renter and
poverty, because the renter rarely had
the capital to maintain conditions that
would keep up fertility. He had Il
short lease and no inducement to i'm
prove.
whoever rents land to be handled
this way abandons his farm there and
the land becomes poorer every year
until it ceases to yield profitably.
Every state should organize to con-
serve fertility of it's soils"

COMET 6AZERS

Complaint has reached the Star Of
fee concerning the loud noises made
by a party Of school children who had
gone out yesterday morning to Kali
muk to see the comet. 1t appears
that they arrived there an hour or
more ahead of time, and in place Of
going up to or near the observatory,
where no one would have been dis
turbed, stopped down in the populated
section of the district and proceeded
to make the night hideous. They
footed horns, shouted like wild In
dams and shot off either pistols or
crackers in their effort to make all
the noise possible The nuisance
was endured by IIaimuli residents for
more than an hour, or until Prof. Do
naghho arrived to open the observS-
tory.
The fuss makers were boys and
girls 16 and 10 years of age and came
from a school of the city. Kaimuki

their visits but not their hoodlumism

it, John Doe" warrant system will

CONSERVE THE LAND
IS WILSON s ADVICE

NEW YORK, april 27.-Secretaly
Wilson of the Department of Agricul-
ture urged proper conservation of the
soil as the only permanent method
OF preventing a continuation of in
crease in the cost of living, in an ad-
dress at the conference on agricultural
condition in New York Produce Ex-
change building this afternoon.
we cannot afford to buy food from
foreign countries" he said, "and we
must see to it that our western farms
produce enough not only for home con-
sumption, but also to sell abroad and
square up the balance of trade"
Calls for Careful Inquiry.
Secretary Wilson said IN part:
"The cost of living calls for careful
inquiry into the causes that have
operated to bring about conditions
that are new to us as a people. We
have had great abundance of food at
prices that were lower than most
other countries with which we COM
pete in commerce and manufacturing
Compensation for skill and labor has
been comparatively high in our couu-
try, but increased cost of living has
become a disturbing factor that can
not be adjusted at present to the sat
isfaction Of those concerned.
"The major part of our people in the
east are being fed from the MISSISSIPPI
pi valley and the states of the south
draw much from the same source. 1
am well satisfied that the soils of that
valley are being subjected gradually
to the same unwise treatment that SO
seriously reduced the soils east of the
Alleghenies and south of the Ohio.
Necessity for Education.
"The necessity for educating the
farmer is impressed upon our people
and steps are being taken in all our
states and territories to this end.
Sciences are being applied and re-
search made into causes and results.
Education is being extended into
primary schools in many of our states,
Federal and state governments are
spending money freely for this pur-
pose, and students are multiplying,
