THE. HAMuS PEA

This new forage plant that has re-
Gently been brought from Syria to
Watertown, S. D., is proving splen-
did product for the western prairie
states.
1t is drought resisting and lib
eral growing crop. The season of
1910 was the dryest season With one
exception eve recorded in the north
ern one-half of South Dakota. New
ertheless, wherever this plant was
sown it produced a bountiful yield.
The pea is a splendid healthy crop for
hogs, cattle and horses, as well as for
man, and the plant itself makes hay
equal TO alfalfa.
In the dryest sections this proved
very profitable crop last year, and
has proven that it is a safe and sure
crop for the dryest regions of the
west.
Some fields in the western part of
South Dakota where the soil is ex-
ceptionally fertile produced as high
as 40 bushels OF grain, and four tons
OF fodder to each acre. The discov-
ering and utilizing of such crops as
have been found to be Indigenous to
dryer climates will ultimately place
all of Wyoming and Montana within
the choice agricultural district OF the
great west.
Europe the annual precipitation is
| less than the average or normal pre-
cipitation for South Dakota, and one
of the greatest drawbacks here has
| been the settlers insisting upon farm
Ing the same products as are raised
in the Mississippi and Ohio valleys,
| which are among the Wettest agri
cultural districts of the world, but
when the settlers of these western
| prairies of Dakota have learned to
farm as nature intended this country
to he farmed, it will NEST certainly
| prove TO be one OF the choicest and
surest producing sections of the
world, as the soil of South Dakota is
absolutely unsurpassed in it's perfect
quality for liberal productiyeness.

There must be political parties in
this country. We cannot get along
without them, and if the parties
amount to anything they must have
distinct views and policies. And
they must eject men TO carry them
out. Otherwise what do the views
amount to? Party pledges must be
more important than individual
views or party government will fall.
That is just the danger that con-
fronts the republican party in this
state today.

ROADS ATTACK RATES
Sweeping Onslaught on All Iowa Tar
iff.-ere.test Case Brought Since
Administration Of Governor LARA.

Dss Moines. March 25.-F'or the Arst
time in twenty years. the entire sched-
uia of freight rates in Iowa Is now be-
ing attacked in the federal courts by
the railroads operating in the state.
II is the first time since William Lar
"a nee was governor Of Iowa tina, the
railroad commission has been obliged
20 compete with such a sweeping at
tack or Iowa rates.
This situation grows out OF the coal
cases row pending Last December the
iowa commission fixed schedule OF
maximum rates on coal between all
Iowa points. Eight railroads have at
tackled this schedule in the courts.
The members Of the railroad board
and the attorney general have been re-
forcing the commissions order. The
last order was served last week.
Every shipping point. town or city in
the state is affected by the pending
litigation. Vast amounts of money IN
freight rates are involved in the out
come Of the fight. According to Cliff
ford Thorne Iowa paid the railroads
last year more than 1000, 900.
To fight these cases effectively and
protect the interests OF the state. the
railroad onnaisslon has asked the leg
islature for suitable appropriations
TIE members feel that they are askine
an exceedingly small amount consid-
e-ing the large interests involved.
Failure to fight the cases properly
means TO more substantial decreases in
rates in the future according to q
statement made by Railroad Commits
sicner Thorne yesterday. He urges the
state to order valuation OF railroad
property and furnish ample funds fol
the work.
Much has been said Of late about the
task the railroad board has recently
undertaken Of fighting some great cases
for Iowa shippers before the interstate
commerce comm ission." said Mr.

again where We should have COM
menced before the session opened. Let
US call the progressives together, or
at least those who are for Kenyon, and
hold conference such as that we pro-
posed in January Then We can de-
eide on what is to be done"
20. no: that will never do. We must
take care Of these men who are voting

But if they are for our man and in

what objection can they have to any

puzzle?'
Lines Have Been Crossed.
This is a line OF ralk that can be
heard around the corridors almost any
day There is sincere desire for the
getting together but not all see it alike.
And the lines have crossed and re-
crossed until ii is hard to understand
how any way can be found out of the
tangle.
Now what has been the attitude of
y udSe Deemer il the fight? Apparent
~ he has been only a receptive canGi-
date, as far as he is personally con-
cernsd He has tried hard not to stand
in the way of solution OF the prob
lem. But he knows perfectly well, and
his is evident TO everyone familiar
with the case. that whether his name
5 used or not used has little to do with
he case. His dropping out, or asking
hat his name be not used. would not
solve the problem at all 1t would mean
merely a shifting OF position.
The men who are supporting Judge
oeen.er are entitled TO the same con-
sidsration as those who are support
ing Judge Kenyon. They are for him
positively and progressively. and be-
cause Of a belief that he would make
a good senator. IN-tempeTed critics

I.,s i'll question their good faith: but
his has not been warranted ard has

Some Will Not Yield.
The fact IS that in both camps there

IN these camps are also persons who
