Proceedings of
 District Court
MONDAY, JANUARY 5

MONDAY, JANUARY
 In court today c dramatic incident occurred in the trial of William Pfankuche for the murder of Asa Hoy and Wm. Bockholt.
 During the empsnelment of the jury and the challenges by Attorney English for the defendant, the ques- ton was asked of the juror whether he would be influenced in arriving at a verdict if he were convinced that the prisoner was inssne. Immediately Piankuchs arose and dramatically exclaimed that he objected to such line of questioning, and insisted that since he was personally involved in the case he strenuously objected. The examination of jurors continued and when the same question was asked the next juror, defendant Pfsnkuche again arose and exclaimed: "I object. your honor." The prisoner was quiet proceeded without further interrup- ton.
 Attorneys English and Cleary sp- pear for the defendant. and judging rom the line of questioning of jurors, the defense will be insanity.
 It is not known if jury can be secured from the present panel, 50 extra jurymen having been called for this case.

 are a number of strings to the republican promise of statehood, says the Tempe News. The old question of politics, while kept in the background as much as pos- sible, is still paramount. The republican leaders are not satisfied that Ralph Gamer on's election meant that the new state will be safely re- publican. Until they are so satisfied, their promises, from Taft on down the line. may be looked on as so much wind.
 MT. Crocker, the million alre who died recently Tn New York, left a million dollars to pay for battle against can cer. His own life was de- stroyed by the ravages of that terrible disease, as was that of his wife, who preceded him some years. MT. Crocker could not save himself, but he made provision so that, if science can find the weapon to combat the malady it will finally be conquered.
 The reported 25 per cent reduction in railroad freight rates between Arizona points and the general eastern and western markets has not af- fected local retail prices to any noticeable extent, says the Florence Blade, and adds: The merchant just adds that 9 per cent to his profit ac- count and keeps on ringing up the same old figures on the cash register. It was ever thus since human nature was invented.
 Don't be angry if a stran- ger calls at your home and asks you if you love your wife. He's only the census man. About 5000 of them will be out on the job before long. The collecting of in formation about the private affairs of people who don't want to talk is just a part of their duties. To make good they must be a cross between a newspaper reporter and a book agent.
 President Taft advocates a civil pension list, and so many recommendations for the increase of the civil list have been made, that it be- gins to look as if one-half of the people must soon pension the other half.

Money and expense are not essential to
artistic homes and attractive rooms. One
dollar and fifty cents worth of material
will completely transform a crude, mar
tistic room into a graceful, dainty apart
ment.
Really il is good taste and skill that
makes the home homelike. That dainty
touch is worth twice as much as money.
Wall paper Is expensive-lt costs money
to buy II, TO hang il and again TO re
move il. With the use of the alabastined
wall there is only the slight cost of the
material-any one can brush It on-and i
is not necessary to wash II off the wall
when fresh coat is required.
II is very easy to mix, very simple TO
apply, but the results are simply beautl-
full A whole house can be done at just
a little more than the cost of single
room when ordinary materials are used.
And this is true, that now that we have
so much better materials for use in the
decoration Of our homes, that wall paper,
common kalsomine and paint are now as
much out of date as the old time white
wash. tallow candles and rough hewn
floors Mere money is no longer an es-
sential in good housefurnishing in artistic
home making.
The new materials and labor-saving ma.
chimes are most welcome TO US all-and
every thoughtful woman, every woman
who cares for her home, is quick to utilize
them.

EXCELLENT TRADE in
WESTERN CANADA

AND PROSPEROUS OUTLOOK
FOR THE FUTURE.

Throughout all of Canada, and espe-
eially in the Western Provinces OF
Canada, there is a buoyancy in every
line Of business that is fully war.
ranted by every condition. The crops
OF the past year were what was ex.
pected. and the prices for grain of all
kinds, put the farmers in a class by
themselves. Many OF them are indie
pendent, and many others have got
well started on the road The latest
reports are that seeding is well under
way in almost every district, and the
prospects are that a vastly larger area
than that under crop last year will
be seeded early this spring In the
Lethbridge district, in Southern Al
berta, steam and gasoline outfits hun
dreds of them, are breaking up the
prairie at a tremendous pace. but
they work night and day. AS soon as
IL becomes dark, gangs are changed,
a head light attached, and on, on
through the night until the first
streak of dawn, these giant monsters
with their seven or eight gangs OF
breaking plows, keep up the work.
Then the more modest farmer is put
ting in the longest hours possible with
his teams Of horses or oxen And
what will the Country be like in Au-
gust. when these fields have become
yellowed with the literally golden
panse of wheat field. And there WIN
be market for il, because II is the
best grain grown, and the demand
will be everywhere. AS previously in
timated business throughout. Western
Canada is sound and good. The grain
production of 1909 has been the great
factor in establishing the reputation
OF Western Canada. and il is worth
talking about. 1t surpassed all previ-
Gus records, both in regard TO quality
and quantity, and such an achieve
ment was by no means easy. The
limit has not been reached. and
large average increase may be ex-
pected during the next ten years.
There will be odd seasons when a
falling-off will occur. and ii is the fall
ing-off that causes alarms and panics
in the commercial world. The plains
have done their duty so far in the
output of grain and II would be rea-
sonable to make occasional allowances
for slowing-up. The faster the rate OF
increase is now, the sharper will be
the check when the production dimin-
ishes But there are some unreason-
able people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
during the next. and at an even faster
rate These same unreasonable PEG
pie are the ones who see flaws in the
situation as soon as an indication is
given that the startling advances have
not been maintained.

superstitions which in pre-Buddhistic
times found expression in wild IA
