To understand the proximate caus
es OF Arnold's treason we must star
with the summer of 177S, when Phila
delphia was evacuated by the British
Then, as General Arnold was incapa
citated for actual service by the
wound he had received at Saratoga
Washington placed him in command
OF Philadelphia. This step brought
Arnold into direct contact with con
gress, toward which he bore a fierce
grudge for the sights it had put upon
him; and, moreover, the command
was in itself difficult one. The au.
thority vested in the commandant
was not clearly demarcated from that
which belonged to the state govern.
ment, so that occasions for dispute
were sure to be forthcoming.
The general accordingly was soon at
loggerheads with the state govern
ment, and lost much of his personal
popularity. Stories were whispered
to his discredit. 1t was charged
against Arnold that the extravaganza
of his style of living was an offense
against republican simplicity, and a
scandal in view of the distressed con-
ditions of the country; that, in order
to meet his heavy expenses, he resort
ed to peculation and extortion; and
that he showed too much favor to the
Tories.
The charge of favoring the Tories
may find its explanation in circum-
stance which possibly throws side
light upon his lavish use of money.
Miss Margaret Shipper, daughter of
a man of moderate Tory sympathies,
was one of the most beautiful women
in America. In the autumn of 177S
Arnold was bethrothed to Miss Ship
pen, and thus entered in close rela-
tions with prominent Tory family
AS Arnold stopped for day at Nor
ristown to visit Washington, letter

that as soon as his back was turned
upon Philadelphia he had been public
ly attacked by President Reed and the
council Formal charges were brought
against him; first, of having improp-
erly granted pass for ship to come
to port; second, of having once used
some public wagons for the transpor-
tation of private property; third, of
having usurped the privilege of the
council in allowing persons to enter the
enemy's ines; fourth, of having IL
legally brought lawsuit over prize
vessel; fifth, of having imposed me-
NAL offices upon the sons of freemen
serving in the militia, and sixth, of

A Soaking.

which soaked nearly all of it into

TIMELY And GOOD ADVICE

DR.. F. j. Away, professor of
agriculture and soil chemistry
at the Nebraska State Univer
sity, writes one of our makeshift
farmers the following in reply
to frantic appeal for a method
of getting away from summer
fallow. 1t is bitter medicine for
some of us, but ''the doctor says,
take it:'n
You state that you will try
raising a crop of Mexican beans
this summer on the land which
you intend to plant to wheat next
fall. You said that you do not
think that that affects the moist
ure in the soil as other crops do.
I have tried them out very care
fully and find that if they are
planted moderately thick they
dry the soil practically to the
same extent as do milo and wheat.

ones having cash crop such as
beans instead of putting every
thing into fallow. | would
strongly urge you, however, to
keep two or three acres of your

moisture and not the crust that

A SAWMILL FOR ROY

Persistent rumors are afoat to
the effect that a sawmill is to be
established at Roy. Inquiry of
the parties supposed to be inter-
ested does not fully confirm the
report, but there are several par
ties thinking seriously of the
matter.
To those who have only seen
; our large fertile but treeless
prairies, a sawmil) looks like a
joke, but if they will take a few
days to drive along the small
canyons leading to Red River
and La C;nta Canyon, they will
find out much they do not know.
There are an unbelievable num-
ber of good trees that are within
a radius of 25 miles of Roy.
There are enough to keep a small
sawmill going for years, and we
guess the right parties are after
them, and as soon as they know
just where the settlers stand
with reference to getting their
own lumber from government
land, the hum of the saw and the
screech of the planes will add to
the evidences of civilization to be
heard on every hand at Roy. The
world do move, and if you who
have been here for three to five
years will take time to really
think you will see that the ad.
yancement here has already been
almost phenomenal. The ten
derfeet" and sucker" from the
East have done more for this
mesa in five years than has been
done for it in (5OO0) years by the
old residents.
But, getting back to the lum-
Der interests, if you want to see
something fine as an illustration,

will have a chance to satisfy
yourself of it's value without hav-
ing gone to much expense. In
stead of planting the whole of
your fallow to wheat, it would be
well to save part for potatoes and
garden the following year. l
know Of no plant which will pro-
duce a crop without drying out
the ground. Potatoes, perhaps,
will not dry the ground out as
much as the other promising
crops but, on the other hand,
they are very liable to fail to form
tubers when the moisture begins
to get low.
Every progressive farmer on
the mesa, who is anxious to see
the district advance, should try
at least small piece-two or
three .acres-of summer fallow.
| have noticed that quite a num-
ber of the settlers on the mesa
have written to the dry farming
bulletin, some of them stating
how much they believe in dry
farming. One of these, especi-
ally, | remember we bave tried
two different years to induce to
mmer-fallow a small piece.
Both years he started out but in
the course of a few weeks the
fallow was so rOwn up to weeds
that there was no moisture left.
Unless the progressive settlers
show what the Roy district can
do, land values are bound to be
low there when the homesteaders
prove up. Hence, it is import

SELECTED

At meeting of the school
board Monday evening, the fol
lowing teachers were elected for
the Roy schools for the coming
term:
VIM. G. Johnson, Principal.
Grace M. Collins, intermediate.
Mrs. Anna Scott, intermediate.
D. Ella Romine, Primary.
The teacher for the Pleasant
View school will be elected in
June.
It was also decided at the meet
ing to employ four teachers in
the schools at this place instead
of three, as last year. The extra
teacher will be used in the inter-
mediate grades, as they were
considered too crowded for one
teacher, and the second and third
grades will be given to one
teacher and the fourth and fifth
grades to the other intermediate
teacher.
This is a good move of the
school board and in the right di-
rection. for at least one more
teacher could have been used
durin g the term just closed, and
it is an assured fact that the en-
rollmcnt will pass the 200 mark
during the coming term.
The extra room to be added
will also assist in relieving the
crowded conditions of the prim-
ary and advanced rooms, and will
relieve the immense amount of
work which has been crowded
upon the three teachers hereto
fore.
Our school is growing rapidly,
and it will only be a matter of a
short time TIL more teachers will
have to be added and a complete
high school is one of the new
features which will be added to
our schools within a year or so.
The reelection of Mr.. johnson
as principal is evidence that his
work here has been highly salts
