Prosecution Is Willing.

Prosecutor Conklng says he is willing
that any commission the court may ap-
point shall make an investigation.
The suggestion by Judge Latshaw came
after long debate in the courtroom to-
day over whether testimony regarding
the refusal of DR.. Ludwig Hektoen to
relinquish unexamined sections of the
visceras to chemists employed by the
ueIe..se should be admitted. This demand
preceded an indictment in the case and
while the organs were in Chicago. Judge
Latshaw also will report Monday on
whether he believes this testimony should
be admitted.

FURTHER SWOPE PROBE
JUDGE FAVORS INQUIRY BY
MEDICAL EXPERTS.
Will Announce Tomorrow Morning
Whether Such Action Would
Be Legal.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April 30.-Judge
Ralph S. Latshaw may appoint a commits
sion of medical experts to determine
whether poison caused the death of Col.
Thomas H. Swope and Chrisman Swope.
The judge suggested today to the attor-
neys in the Hyde case that he would be
willing to select several competent and
unbiased scientists to make an investiga-
ton of those parts Of the visceras of the
two men which have not yet been exam
ined by the scientists employed by the
prosecution. The judge will announce
Monday whether he believes such action
would be legal on his part.
DIR. Hyde's attorneys refuse to state
whether this plan of procedure would be
satisfactory to them. They probably will
issue a statement after consultation set
for tomorrow, they said tonight.

ASTOL0R|MER
Illinois Delegation Stirred, But
Silent About Charges.
HOW SENATE MAY ACT
Likely to Take No Cognizance of
Case in This Stage.
PROCEDURE AT OTHER TIMES
Only Six Investigations Ever Under
taken of Bribery Accusations
Against Wearers Of Toga.

The Illinois delegation in Congress
was profoundly stirred yesterday by dis
patches from Chicago telling of the
charges of corrupt methods in the election
of Senator Lorimer of Illinois. An al
most panicky fear of being quoted, how
ever, made it impossible to secure COM
ments upon the case.
The fact that only the most general
outlines of the story were at hand. with
details lacking, added to the reluctance
of Illinois statesmen and politicians out
Of Congress to discuss the affair for
publication.
Bad Time to Come Up.
Whatever the outcome of the charges,
as to their refutation or affirmation, 1t Is
recognized by Illinois men in public life
here that this is peculiarly unfortunate
time to open up a scandal of this char
acter. With insurgency rampant In the
republican party and the spirit of progress
siveness menaclng the standpat elenen''
it does not add to the happiness of the
Illinois statesmen, it is said. to have a
bombshell of this kind thrown into the
political camp the eve of alignment
for the coming battle.
The first question asked yesterday was:
Are the charges likely to reach the
Senate and necessitate senatorial in
vstigation? No one could answer that
query beyond citing the usual procedure
which is to carry on Investigations OF
this nature only upon charges duly DE-
tailed and presented.
The Senate does not open up cases OF
this kind except on motion made by some
one responsible. Then the charges are
not followed up until committee has
investigated their trustworthiness and
found sufficient basis for full invest1ga-
ton.
Six Inquiries in Forty Years.
In forty years only six Investigations by
the Senate have been made of charges
of bribery or other venality in the cleo
ton of Senator. In two instances the
accused senators resigned before the
Senate came to vote upon the charges.
If the charges against Senator Lor>
inner should be Of such a grave char
acter, however, to forbid their being
ignored, it was said yesterday that Sena-
tor CullOm, the colleague of Senator Lor-
inner, himself might bring them before the
Senate and ask the committee on privi-
lege and elections to look into them and
report whether they should be taken up
by the Senate.
Senator Lorimer furnishes the second
case Of Senator being under fire in this
session of Congress. Senator Percy or
Mississippi, democrat, felt SO aggrieved
by the charge that one of the men who
had voted for him had received bride
that he has appealed to the people of
his state for vindication and will go be-
fore a primary election to poll the vote
of the people as to their opinion whether
he was rightfully elected to the Senate.
In the peculiar condition OF Illinois poll
tics, however. it is considered unlikely
that Senator Lorimer will pursue such a
course.

eryone had his own granary and
s1nokehouse instead Of drawing upon
the West in those particulars. there
would be little use In comparing the
relative prices Of cotton and other
farm products. But in view OF the
fact that some cotton growers pay
too little heed to raising home sup
plies, it is interesting to note that
cotton. in spite of it's increased price,
could buy less corn. less cornmeal
fewe~ beans at wholesale in 1898
than in 1898. and that, OF course.
tl.,re was even a greater difference
when it came to retail prices. Be
tween 1898 and 1908 the dollar value
Of a bale Of cotton increased more
than 76 per cent. but its value in cS
change for other direct or indirect
farm products was nothing like as
much, the bale OF cotton being able
to buy in 1908 at wholesale only 60
per cent more of wheat than in 1898.
only 20 per cent more -four. 33 1-3
per cent more beef on the h0of and
Al per cent. more fresh beef, Is per
cent more live hog and 16 per cent
more bacon, "A per cent more sheep
and 49 per cent more mutton. 25 per
cent more butter and 26 per cent
more potatoes.
In the case Oh many witch
the farmer cannot raise the disparity
was equally great il not greater one
bale of cotton could buy seven barrels
of herring in 1898, and only about a
third of a barrel more in 1905. It
could buy only Is per cent more bro
ganS, 54 per cent more WOmen'S shoes.
80 per cent more sewing cotton, 40
per cent more ginghams 72 per cent
more mems stockings, 81 per cent
more womens stockings, 46 per cent
more candles, 3S per cent more coal,
Il9 per cent more petroleum, 2o per

nails, 25 per cent more lime, % per
cent more white oak lumber, pei
cent more yellow pine lumber, "a per
cent more cypress shingles 25 per

mon locks In other words, although
the increased price Of cotton enabled
it to buy more of most Of the COM
rrot7ities mentioned in the list than in
1898, the increased price OF these
commo odities diminished more or less
the advantage to the cotton grower
in the advance in the price OF th-
staple, even without taking into &C

Of the twentieth century. might lead
TO conclusion that cotton growers
are at present rolling in unaccus-
toned wealth. That conclusion would
hardly square with facts. It would bt.
dominated by the confusion arising
from the use of the dollar idea, in
estimating the value OF cotton with
out due regard for the dollar idea In
estimating the value of things for
which cotton Is exchanged. If there
were no currency, no money medium
of exchange. no metal standard OF
value Of varying intrinsic value itself,
the problem Of low prices or Of high
prices for commodities would be sim.
piified and the Individual producer
would measure the value of its prod
act in terms Of other products that
he might obtain in exchange for it.
How Interesting the developments
from such g return in this latter day
to the primitive trucking system OF
exchange might be is suggested in a
brief consideration Of the purchasing
in year Of low prices such as
1898, and In year of high prices"
such as 1908. The full revelation,
would come from knowledge of the
wholesale prices received by the cot
ton grower and the retail prices he
must pay for most OF his purchases
But it is practically impossible to
make the study upon the retail basis

into the question Of retail prices as

too often. Wherever it is seen it de-
notes good farming It solves the
problem of turning into the highest

they cannot return as satisfactory

POULTRY THR|VES
WELL ON ALFALFA
BY Mrs. f.. Robertson.

food for growing chicks, and a winter
relish for adult fowls.
We have field of ten acre sown
to alfalfa stretching just below the
colony coops and pens where I raise
my chicks.
A year ago last summer I noticed
that as soon as / gave the chicks free
range they would seek this field and
spend hours in the growing alfalfa.
particularly when it blOssOmed ready
for cutting
BY close observation I found that
they ate the tender tops and purple
buds ravenously and certainly seemed
to thrive on the food.
I tried sowing some seed in my
see how the chicks enjoyed it--wee.
fluffy fellows just from the incuba-
tor. This set me to thinking.
When last winter came on l housed
one hundred pure Buff Cochin pullets
in q fairly roOmy and comfortable
house. The large hay barn was stored
to the roof with alfalfa and millet
hay. From the former the leaves and
dried blossoms, still green in hue, fell
in masses Of fine fragrant litter, use

every available bit they could pick
up.
By night the floor would be bare
and q fresh supply was thrown in rea-
dy for the mornings meal.
MY hens have always done well as
winter layers. but last season they out
did themselves and made a record
which is the wonder and envy Of all

THE PRESIDENT AND
VICE PRESIDENT

on Thursday last committee con-
sisting of Past Commanders-in-Ch
John c. Black and John r. King; Mr..
Wm. b. Bell. Chairman of the Committee
on Invitations. and Representative John
]. Gardner. of New Jersey, waited on
President Taft, and extended him an
invitation in the name of the State OF
New Jersey and Atlantic City to be
present at the 44th Annual Encamp-
ment of the Grand Army of the Re-
public. The President received the
committee very cordially, and while
giving no positive promise that he
would attend the Encampment, he led
the committee to believe that the week
of Sept 1924 would find him in Allan
tic City.
From the White House the committee
proceeded to the Capitol, and called on
Vice President Sherman, who received
the committee in his usual. CHEEKY. cor
dial maner, thanked them for the honor
and said he would certainly be there.
A pleasing incident of the White
House visit was the cordial reception
of the committee by the Hon. Charles
D. Norton, Secretary 10 the President.
1t seems no appointment had been
made with the President or his Secre-
tary for the visit of the committee, and
the situation was quite embarrassing
Neither Mr.. Stone, the head usher, nor
Mr.. Pusey, his assistant, had any in
timation or memorandum Of the visit
The Secretary was told of the presence
in the waiting room of the committee.
He at once left his Office. and after
greeting Gems. Black and King, he was
Informed by Gen. Black that they were
there by request of Col Sterrett, Execu-
tive Director, for the purpose of invit
ing the President to Atlantic City. Mr..
Norton stated that he had no knowl-
edge of it. However, he said, The
Grand Army is always welcome" and
he at once made arrangement for the
interview. The committee are pre-
pared to say that Secretary Norton is
"all right"
The National tribune., 1910-06-30

Russia is really country where So
practice, and the Henry George theo-
ries are carried out. The land has al
ways belonged to the community, and
has been portioned out to the various
members by the Mir" All manner Of
troubles resulted from this. The land
was redistributed every seven years.
and therefore no cultivator took any
pains to keep up or improve the quail
ity Of the soil. II a man had a little
better tract Of land than the others, he
was in a constant fight to keep It, In
order to satisfy all the members of tn =
Mir various devices were resorted to.
and one was that of cutting up the land
into little strips from four to ~ feet
wide and a mile long A man might
have these strips separated by miles of
distance, and have to walk from one to
another to cultivate them. There were
instances where one peasant would
would have 100 separate pieces of
ground. some as small as four feet by
home. The land measures which the
Duma has adopted look to the aboli-
ton of the Henry George idea and to
giving each man his piece of land in
permanency for a specified payment to
the Government! 1t was dissatisfaction
with the old system which led to revo-
lutions and disturbances in Russia.
