In an interview in Los Angeles 1.
S. Burton of Salt Lake City, cashier
of the State Bank of Utah, who is
visiting in the Angel City, said:
This dry farming proposition
sounds like a joke to many farmers
in the East, and to many in the West
who have come to believe that irri-
CATION is the first great essential to
successful farming in our part OF the
country. 1t is no joke with us in
Utah, though, for it has been demon
strated beyond a doubt that any land
that will produce a good growth OF
sage brush will produce big crop OF
the finest wheat whenever proper
methods of cultivation and Conser-
vation OF moisture are practiced.
1T is simply the application OF
common sense in the way of conserv
ing the moisture OF the season, in
stead of allowing it to run off or
The system, with deep

LoRlMER AGAIN
First Witness Testified Before New
investigating Committee.

investigating Committee.
Washington, June 22.-Through its
first witness, Syrus II. Mccormick of
Chicago president Of the Interna-
tional Harvester company, the Sen
ate Lorimer investigating committee
Tuesday introduced into its record
the principal allegation upon which
the Senate was induced TO reopen
the case against the Illinois senator.
IL was to clarence Funk, the manager
of the Harvester company, that Ed
ward Hines is alleged to have made
the request for a contribution OF Sl0,-
600 as part of fund of 100000 to
be raised in Lorimer's behalf.
Mr.. Mccormick said Funk told
him of this proposal and also said
that he had refused.
! MIR. Mccormick said further that
the Harvester company had made 1t
a practice to hold aloof from politics
and to avoid efforts to influence legis-
lation. Taking this as cue, the coun-
sci for Senator Lorimer sought to
show that in many states the COM
pany had made an effort to prevent
the passage of the bills considered
Objectionable to it. The witness ad-
mltted that The company had made
general opposition to c~.sasn !esisla-
ton providing for the manufacture of
binding Irvine.
For the day Mr.. Lorimer was rep
resented by William ]. Hynes of Chi
cago, whose primary purpose in at
tending the meetings is to represent
Edward Hynes.
Mr.. Hynes made it clear that it is
the intention of Mr.. Lorimer to neg
lect no line of defense. Although Mr.
McCormick's testimony against the
accused senator was of hearsay char
acter only, the attorney sought by
every means in his power TO break II
| down.
| Little interest was manifested In
the proceedings. Among the on
lockers were former Senator Hopkin:
whom Mr.. Lorimer succeeded anC
Manager Kelley of the Chicago Tri
bune, which published the frs
charges of irregularity in Lorimeri
election.
All the members of the committee
except Senator Lea were in atten
dance and he was detained through
his wife's illness. The committee vii

WOMEN DEFEATED AT CORNELL
Their Candidate for the Board Of
Trustees Beaten by Five Votes.

Ithaca, June 23-The most impor-
tant event in Cornelrs second alumni
day was the announcement of the re-
suit of the three cornered fight for
the election of two alumni trustees
in which the older male graduates
had backed up the women graduates,
who had nominated Mrs. William
Vaughn Moody in an effort to regain
representation on the university
board
A good many of the younger alum
nj had supported Herbert ID. Mason,
1900, a New York lawyer, and when
the result of the election was an.
nounced at the meeting of the associ-
ated alumni it was found that Mr..
Mason had five more votes than Mrs.
Moody. James H. Edwards, 'SS, NOM
mated to succeed himself, had big
lead over both candidates. The Of
fetal result was: Edwards, 3,O17;
Mason, 2,163, and Mrs Moody, 2,15S.
The other ballots were scattered.
The defeat of Mrs. Moody was
crushing blow to her loyal support
ers. who had earnestly hoped for her
election. The women, however,
served notice that the fight would be
continued.
