 Special Washingtoo Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, D. C., April 29.-f the Humphrey ship subsidy bill becomes a law, it will have the practical effect of increasing the protection on iron ore imported from certain countries from 15 to 21 cents ton.
 This revelation, brought out before the ship subsidy Investigating committee by Attorney J. H. Ralston on behalf of Representative Steenerson, is alleged to explain the unusual in terest taken in the bill by the Merchant Marine league, an organization which has spent $57 ,O0O to bring about the passage of ship subsidy leg islation.
 Testimony shows that nearly every officer of the league is interested in the ownership of iron ore beds or boats engaged in the transportation of iron ore.
 ''Section of the Humphrey ship subsidy bill explains why the steel trust and owners of iron ore beds were so intensely interested in the pro posed legislation" said Attorney Ralston.
 ''This section increases the tonnage tax on vessels entering ports of the United States from Norway, Sweden and other ore producing coun- tries from to 12 cents. This to all practical ends mean an increase in the protection on such ores from to 6 cents ton.
 "The testimony already taken shows that Samuel Mather, a director of the steel trust, contributed $1,00O to the Merchant Marine league Many other persons owning iron ore beds and ore transporting boats and who would therefore directly benefit from the passage of the Humphrey bill, have been shown by testi- mony already in to have contributed freely to attack representatives of congress opposed to such class legislation as the Humphrey bill.
 ''These owners of iron ore beds, however have been on the stand and testified that they were merely interested in the passage of the Humphrey bill as patriotic and benevolent American citizens. Yet the passage of this bill would have placed thousands of dollars in their pockets.
 ''The deeper we go into the investigation of the Merchant Marine league the more evident if is that the money used to attack members of congress came directly from men who wante' to see ship subsidy legislation passed in order that they might increase their profits And all the while they were posing as patriots"

THE WATER WASTE

The order made by city council restricting the use of city water following on the heels of the report of new strike of aqua has aroused citi- zens in general to ask for the why's and where flores.
 There seems to be but one answer to the ques- tion and that is the inability of the water de- partment to maintain a sufficient amount of water in the reservoirs to meet the demands of the users.
 The Silver Belt believes from all information at hand that enough water is pumped at the station each day to supply the demands of a city of much greater population than Globe That a screw IS loose somewhere IS quite evident, and in casting about for the defects the Silver Belt believes that more water is wasted in Globe by defective plumbing than is consumed for all oth- CT purposes In a single block in this city we will venture the assertion that 800 gallons of water are going to waste every day as the result of defective plumbing. It is probable that the amount of waste will greatly exceed this amount If this is true in this one business block in ques- tion itl quite natural to conclude that the same waste will be found in a ma jOrity of other blocks and throughout the residential districts in de- gree of like proportions.
 What the city needs, and needs badly is an official plumbing inspector-an officer who will see that all plumbing is properly done and then to keep his eagle eye out for leaks from plumb ing jobs that have outlived their usefulness.
 It is also stated that this drastic order was made because some water users' violated the rules governing the use of water. We can hard ly believe that city council would issue such a sweeping edict if this was the most common complaint and an abuse occasioning the greatest waste. That considerable waste does result from violation of the rules there is little doubt. but the entire city should not be made to suffer for the transgressions of the comparative few. It users habtually violate the rules the water should be shut off altogether from their prem lses and suitable penalty fixed that would ul- tlmately Stop the practice
 But the Silver Belt does not believe that this IS what has prompted the action We are not willing to admit that real scarcity of water is responsible for the step. There is enough water for all purposes if waste is stopped and as intmated, we believe that defective plumbing is responsible for the waste and makes reserve supply impossible. It is matter that will bearl close investigation and an investigation that should be early started and carefully prose cuted. If the waste from this source is found to be great city plumbing inspector is the answer.

fected by the latest rulings that a
wholesale departure from this instltu-
ton was likely.
One Of the significant features of the
story aaoat yesterday was that Stephen
H. Bush, secretary of the athletic board
and head of the French department.
had given three cons" and that the
men after application had been refused
special examination.
During the agitation IN December
Professor Bush was secretly known to
oppose severely the student criticism of
the present athletic system at the uni
versity and those not friendly to his
policies do not hesitate to speak plainly
concerning the treatment accorded the
athletes in their scholastic work during
the past semester. They state that his
hostile attitude has prejudiced the
markings of certain athletes in his de-
partment.
The track team is torn to remnants
by the results of the faculty action.

The name bad Lands" is like that
of dry farming, one who has never

looks IN it as some process which
costs much to carry out, but when one
investigates he finds 1t is only good

our land is bad; far from it. or course
we have the hills or 'buttes, but the
land lying between these and on the
immense table lands, which reach for
miles, is fertile and rich, growing in its
natural state a fine coat of buffalo grass
making one feel he is walking on a
big Brussels carpet. The streams are
all bordered with trees and we note
trees in small punches scattered in all
directions. OF course these small
punches have been reduced by the new
settlers in past few years but they
were friends in need and they will be
replaced many fold by artificial or
planted trees in few years. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that we can
grow anything planted successfully. on
the Bert White homestead last year
there were raised 1900 bushels of oats
of fine quality and watermelons were
shipped from here by the car load and
they were as fine as were ever eaten.
What we need is some of this much
talked of dry farming mixed thorough
ly with these bad lands and surround
ingly country and shortly the best
things growing will be produced here.
