Judge Davis was one day in his pri vate office when he was president Of the senate and acting vice president A woman came into the room to see him. He turned and said, Well. madam, what can do for you?" She was neatly dressed in black. with ao air of extreme poverty. She told wretched tale of sorrow and suffering. winding up with the climax that she and her little family were actually starving and had not tasted food for two days. The judge seemed deeply moved. He excused himself for not attending to the case for the moment. as the senate was nearly ready t. open. He looked at his watch with an air of vexation. as if it were not going, and said. ''Can any one tell me what time 1t is?' His visitor pulled out a gold watch and told him the time. The judge said. "Can 1t be true that your children have been without food for two days when you have gold watch in the house" The woman saw the point of the judges question and called out.

DOUBLE THE CROPS

That the farms of the United
States are not producing half what
they should because of lack of
practical education among the far
mers was the reason for the high
cost of living offered by Secretary
of Agriculture James Wilson in
an address Tuesday night at the
farmers union in st. Louis.
Secretary Wilson said: The
government continued for half a
century to give away its fertile
lands until now we have little left
except the dry lands. The farmer
in the old days was a good natured
person, working for what wages he
could get and be glad of it, while
his sons went away from the farm.
"a new day has come. Our pop
ulation is increasing couple of
million or so year and our pro-
duction is not keeping pace with
this growth. Prices have gone up.
Something must be done.
I'VE can and will ultimately,
double every crop we're growing
and at the same time care for "A
population of 20O,OOO,O0O people.
When we've done that the agri-
culturists of the day will show how
to double the crops again"
Mr.. and Mrs. Ezra II. Elliott
have returned from their winter trip
around the southern half of the
United States. Their itinerary was
from here to Cincinnati thence to
Florida and around to San Diego,
Los Angeles to San Francisco and
back to Denver. Ezra caught cold
on the sleeper crossing the Sierra
Madre range and was laid up with
congested lungs for ten days.
Otherwise they were both looking
we'll and glad to be back home
where there is good air and per-
petual sunshine. They met at
Los Angeles, Billy and George
Bayley, Voorhees, and other San
Juaners who all declare they will
be in Del Norte to attend the Pho
neer Association, and won't they
have jolly time.-Prospector.

Especial Correspondence of The Argus.)
Washington, July 2S.-Is Theodore
Roosevelt likely to again seek the re
publican nomination for the presi-
dency?
This is a query frequently asked in
political circles. Opinions differ wide
ly. But whether the ex-president ever
seeks the nomination again or not, it is
extremely doubtful if he could get it.
There are two reasons. The first is
that Postmaster General Hitchcock has
packed the government offices with
men friendly to Taft and hostile to
Roosevelt. These office holders, such
as postmasters, ETC., will be well rep
resented at the next republican ma
tional convention. This tribe of poll
ticians. popularity known as stand
patters," will do their utmost to pre-
vent Roosevelt from securing the NOM
ination unless he comes out in the ap-
preaching congressional campaign with
an endorsement of them, which it is
safe to predict he will not do.

The second stone wall in the way of
third nomination is the clearly de-
fined and long standing public senti-
ment against third terms. George
Washington set the pace in this re-
gard by declining a third nomination
and pointing out the possible evils of
such thing.
Little was heard of the subject again
until in 1874, when the New York Her
aid started a cry that Grant would not
be averse to accepting third term
The press generally quickly took up
the alarm. The newspapers were soon
filled with such terms as "Grantism,' .
third-termism" and "Caesarism.'
The republicans grew decidedly nerv-
Gus. In 1876 the Pennsylvania repub-
lican convention passed resolution of

Yale Crews.
ANNUAL RACES ROWED
Crimson, Spurred on by Results
of Morning, Hope for a
Clean Sweep.

New London, June so. - Harvard
cleaned UP the Thames this morning
with two of the most decisive victories
that ever marked the opening of the
annual regatta with Yale. The Grim
son freshmen eight-oared crew beat
Yale three lengths and the Harvard
varsity four bettered this performance
by finishing four lengths ahead of
Yale. In the freshmen race it was Har-
wards weight and stamina that told.
The race was nip and tuck and it was
only in the last half mile that the New
Haven youngsters weakened, allowing
the Harvard shell to creep ahead of
them by three lengths. Time: Har-
ward, 1854; Yale, 1902.
The varsity fouroared was won by
Harvard in even more sensational
manner. Yale took the lead and at the
half mile was a length ahead Near
the mile and a half Yale increased the
lead to a length and a half. but won
derful squirt by the crimson closed the
gap In the last mile they moved up
more than two lengths, leaving Yale
behind at the finish with Harvard four
length ahead. Time: Harvard. 13:O015;

Had Conceded Race.
The wearers of the crimson had
practically concluded that Yale would
win the four cared race. 1t was. there
fore, no surprise when the Yale crew
jumped away and soon had lead of
five seconds at the mile. But just be-
fore the crews came into the last half
mile of the race the Harvard four, which
had been rowing in bad time, began
to profit by their superior weight.
Over this last half Harvard not only
cut down the Yale lead, but literally
