III HE subject of growing forage
plants for west Texas is a very
important one. There are per-
maps great number of plants that
might be considered as good fora ge
plants such as sweet sorghums, kaffir,
milo, emmer GOTTEN called speltz), cow
peas, alfalfa, burr clover. etc. The
most important of these fer dry land
farming. or I might say for growing
without irrigation and with light ram
fall, are perhaps milo. kaffir and en-
mer, and I shall confne my discus
sion to these.
Preparing the Soil.
The first thing to do in growing any
crop is the preparation of a good seed
bed. which can be done by deep plow-
ing or breaking. which should be done
early in the fall by breaking prefer
ably with a disc ploW or mould
board plow. following Immediately
with a disc or tooth harrow, or both.
in order to pulverize the clod and
make the soil fine. 1t may then be
necessary to run over the land with
a heavy drag. or steel roller in order
to firm down the seed bed
I think as much care should be used
in preparing the seed bed for forage
crops as would be expected for grow
ing a good crop of corn. The deeper
blowing the better, if done at the
proper time. If the seed bed has been
prepared, as above indicated. the soil
should be in the best condition pos
sible for holding all the moisture pos
sible.
To Prevent Loss of Moisture
If sufficient rain should come
through the winter to wet down this
seed bed and form soil crust the sec
ton tooth harrow should be used as
soon as the land is dry enough to
work. so that evaporation and loss of
moisture will be prevented. Continue
this narrowing and surface cultivation
after each rain. If no rain falls. do a
little of the winter cultivation any
way. SO as to save and conserve the
moisture you have in the soil below,
and leave the soil in the best possible

ELECTION TO SHOW
DEMOCRATIC TRIUMPH

Listen to this splendid exhibition of
constituencies nerve appearing in the
Advertiser yesterday: "While every
indication now points to practically
clear sweep for the Republicans in o.
hui on Tuesday next, it is well to remem-
Der that there is nothing so uncertain
as an election, except it be horse
race"
The only saving grace about the
statement is the admission that the
election is uncertain as far as the Re-
publicans are concerned. Sort of an
apology and boast rolled into one, is
it not?
First the Advertiser boasts in the
first of the sentence that every indi-
cation points to practically a clean
sweep" and then the same Hookworm,
alias the Advertiser, declares that
"there is nothing so uncertain"
The Republicans are filled with
alarm. They are as full Of fear as a
monkey is of mischief. They hope to
get few candidates elected, but as far
as their having any certainty as to the
outcome is concerned, they are no more
sure of victory than the Advertiser is
of facts.

REPUBLICANS DEPEND ON
LIES and THEFT

eff we can get votes by lying or
stealing, we will do it,
This remarkable but entirely truthful
statement was made on the stand few
nights ago by Bill Aylett, one Of the
Republican henchmen and one of the
ridiculous Republican supervisors who,
ever since he took office, has been a
disgrace to the city and county of Ho-
nolulu.
Bill, as a Republican, is in some ways
remarkable. For instance, he hash
any more sense than to tell the truth
on some Occasions-a remarkable de-
parture from Republican ethics. And
whenever Bill does speak the truth, he
seriously Injuries his party.
Of course they will get votes by ly-
ing and stealing if they can. That, in
fact, is about the only way they can eX-
pect to get many votes If the voters
were told the truth by them. is it at all
probable that there would be any
heavy Republican vote?
The truth is what the Republicans
most fear. and when one of their own
men so far forgets himself as to speak it,
there is CONSERVATION in Republican
ranks.

ing. we will do it,
There you are. That is Republican,

CATHCAR1'S RECORD
SHOULD DEFEAT HIM

81 stand on my record" declares
John W. Cathcart, city and county at
torney, and aspirant for reelection to
the position he has disgraced. 81 stand
on my record !"
1t is the most shameless statement
made by any candidate during the pres
ent campaign. His record, forsooth |!
John w. Cathcart actually has the I'M
mitigated audacity to boast of the
things he has done since he has been in
Office! He stands upon his record |!
What is that record?
1t would be too tiresome a proceed
ing to try to rehearse it all, but few
incidents may be mentioned as illustra-
tive of the manner in which John w.
Cathcart has carried out the duties of
his office.
John w. Cathcart is the official,
sworn to enforce the laws justly who
by refusing to prosecute human fend
for criminal assault upon little girl,
contenting himself merely with having
the wretch sentenced for vagrancy to
save him from worse punishment, allied
himself with the forces of evil and put
the brand of his approval upon the most
hideous crime that can be committed.
John w. Cathcart is the prosecuting
officer whose integrity was so question
ed by the grand jury that he was asked
70 fr,nt
while the inquisitors were discussing
the matter of the crime above men
toned
John w. Cathcart as city and county
attorney has more nolle prosequis to his
creditor discredt-than he has pros
ecutions.
John w. Cathcart, in a speech to the
voters few nights ago, made the claim
that his office has higher percentage
of convictions. for prosecutions conduct
ed, than any other prosecuting office in
the United States. Perhaps-but John
w. Cathcart has been very chary in his
prosecutions and his office has in many
cases prosecuted for minor crimes when
the offense warranted prosecution for
felonies-as witness the Lane case.
Over John w. Cathcart and his Office
has hung shadow of suspicion ever
since he has been city and county attor-
ney. 1t is true that neither he nor any
of his deputies have ever been convicted
of crookedness-bu neither have they
ever cleared themselves of the suspicion
that has for so long attached to. their
conduct of the public business.
John w. Cathcart stands on his rec
ord That is just where the Democrats
want him to stand-just where they will
insist upon his standing! His record is
enough to defeat the whole Republican
ticket, for his presence on the ticket
makes the whole of it smell bad.

William Alden Smith, soon-to-be
senior senator OF Michigan, like the
distinguished Republican candidate

is not the only editor in the senate
chamber, however, for there are many
scribes at present in that distinguish
ed body, among whom can be named
Shively OF Indiana and Bristow of
Kansas; and La Toilette, one OF the
great leaders OF the progressive wing
of the Republican party, was once the
publisher of weekly paper. William
Alden Smith holds n degree OF master
OF arts, which was awarded him by
Dartmouth college. He is an eloquent
orator, and delivered the opening ad-
dress of the Republican state conven-
ton Mt Detroit. Senator Smith. is a
great admirer of Chase S. Osborn,
and in his speech before the conven-
ton he said:

CHASE S. 0SBORN'S RECORD

Reference to the records OF our
state in connection with the railroad
commissioners department show tha,
Imore was accomplished during the
yeaTs that Chase S. Osborn was state
railroad commissioner than during
amy other similar period in the his
foPy OF Michigan.
One Of Mr. Osborn's very first acts
in connection with his desire to throw
every possible safeguard around train
men and to prevent accidents was to
create new division of his depart
.ment for the exclusive consideration
yCf overhead wire matters
Through the prompt work Of that
division during the first year OF his
hncumbency 1000 wire crossings were
inspected, 5000 Of which were found
defective and repairs and changes
compelled
From the first day Of his term of
Office as railroad commissioner, until
his last hour of service, Chase S. Os-
horn was constant in his efforts to re-
quire the separation of grades for
railroads and this effort extended to
electric roads and street railroads and
wherever possible to highway cross
ings.
There is absolutely no way 10 ade-
quately protect life and property at
railroad crossings except by separa.
tion of grades" he declared, and on
that declaration was based an activ-
fly such as Mr. Osborn always gives
20 matters concerning which he is
thoroughly in earnest.
In one year he secured separation
OF grades ut twenty-three different
points. accomplishing more in that
direction during that one year than
had been accomplished during all the
previous history of our state.
IL is also true that more was ef-
5ected through Mr.. Osborns efforts in
the way of securing the adoption of
railroad safety appliances than Mad
been brought about through all past
years.
Through Commissioner Osborn's ef-
forts in the matter of requiring ali
that was due to the state in cases of
doubt and controversy, extra receipts
for the state treasury from railroad
taxes were secured to an amount in
excess of the entire cost Of maintain.
ing the state railroad department, in
cluding salaries and the expenses of
all its officials.
10 is further very we'll remembered
10y the people OF Michigan that it
was during Mr.. Osborn's term as state
sailroad commission that the special
Charlevoix county herald., 1910-11-05

charters of al Michigan railroads
were repealed.
And they Will further recall that
moro was accomplished in the way of
reducing railroad fares through his
efforts and through his energy than
had ever before been brought about.
Mr.. Hemans, the Democratic candi-
date for governor, is devoting much
OF his time to calling attention to the
expenses of the railroad commission
er's Office during Mr.. Osborn's term,
but he is not referring to the more
important fact that tho expenditures
he refers to brought better results,
dollar for dollar, than any money ever
expended on state account.
The records fully warrant .he claim
that during Mr.. Osborn's term of Of
fee as state railroad commissioner,
more desirable legislation and more
important results in the way Of life
saving requirements and railroad bet
terment were brought about than dur
ing all the years that extended back
through Michigan's history.

THE Constitution provides for two
houses OF Congress, one to be COM
posed OF members elected directly by
the people and the other OF members
elected by the state legislatures. This
provision was inserted by the fathers
because of their doubt of the peoples
ability to absolutely control their own
affairs. It was thought that a few
legislators could better select dignifed
and conservative senator's than could
the people, and that the state was
something different and apart from
the people believe that we have
progressed far enough in popular gov
ernment and in general intelligence to
mako it safe for the people to select
their representatives in both branches
of Congress. also believe that direct
responsibility to the people is more
conducive to wise and beneficial legi5-
Iation than responsibility TO state
legislators, whose tenures of Office are
short and whose responsibilities arc
limited.

This spirit was born Of the
administration of Theodore Roosevelt.
It is today a living, moving force
and, If il follows the channel marked
by Judgment and common sense, the
results cannot be other than good.

Lawton e. Hemans Did Some Thlngs
But -

1t is worthy Of note in this cam
paign that Lawton L. Hemans, tho
Democratic candidate for governor. Is
making no reference to his own OF.

ances or attempted accomplishments
Yet Mr.. Hemans was on the salary
list through two full terms as u Log
islator. He was not present at moro
than half the sessions Of the body To-
which he belonged, but he drew pay
for full time.
He introduced bill to provide for
an additional state board. But as q
candidate for governor he is now de-
Douncing the existence of SO ma1fy
state boards.
Mr.. Hemans introduced n bin to
license bucketshops in Michigan. His
bill sought to make the pretended
sales and purchases through bucket.
shops Legitimate legal transactions"
What the people of Michigan think
Of the bucketshop business which
would have been licensed and legal.
lied il the Democratic candidate for
governor had secured the passage or
his bill is shown by the fact that az
the next session Of the legislature fo1.
lowing his effort a bill entirely pro.
hibiting the existence of bucketshopa
in Michigan became law.
Mr.. Hemans is now seemingly dis.
tressed over state expenditures, but
he voted for more appropriation bills
than any other member OF the legisla-
ture during his terms of service, and
afterwards made an address in the
constitutional convention declaring
that 1t was not true that Michigan
legislators had ever made extravagans
appropriations.
AS q member of the constitutional
convention Mr.. Hemans opposed tho
proposition that the legislature or
Michigan should have power to enace
laws relative TO the hours and condi.
tions under which women and chill.
dren may be employed.
This proposition was especially
urged By the labor organizations OF
Michigan. They petitioned that the
constitution should give this YER
to the legislature. And the just.Os OF
the request was recognized by tho
majority of the members of the con-
stitutional convention. 1t was adopted
by the constitutional convention and
later on was approved by tho people
and is now a part of our state con.
stitution.
But Lawton T.. Hemans made n
speech against it, sneeringly referring
to it as "a little piece of sentiment
Why is Mr.. Hemans not referring to
this feature OF his Official record?
1t will be observed that Mr.. He
mans has an official record. He was
member of the legislature through
four years. Why does he entirely fail
to base any claim to favor from tho
people OF Michigan on the work he
performed or attempted to perform
as supposed representative of tho
people?
