Slaughter Of the Innocents.

The failure of the Iowa law to pro-
vide that where man is convicted
Of felony on perjured testimony he
cannot secure retrial, is responsible
for NJ. B. Foster dying in the state
penitentiary after serving % years of
life sentence for murder in the first
degree. The tragedy of Fosters in
generation is a sad reflection of the
injustice of that section of the Iowa
criminal law. There was always
considerable doubt as to his guilt, yet
he was in prison from 1887 until
death claimed him. Fosters alleged
crime and subsequent conviction is
quite vivid in the minds of many of
our older citizens.
In 1887 he and Emmett Reed went
into camp in Taylor county after
completing construction work on the
Great Western railroad. The next
day Foster was seen with Reeds
three teams going toward Omaha. He
went to Bedford and said he had
bought Reeds teams and was going to
Nebraska City. Three days later
Reeds body was found in the creek
near where the men had camped, with
a log chain about the neck and the
other end fastened to a trunk. Foster
was arrested, convicted and sentenced
to death, although the court refused
to hold the trial until he could get
afiidavits from Nebraska. For this
the supreme court ordered a new trial.
On the. second trial Frank Howard
testified that Foster had told him if
he heard something drop near Bed
ford, he, Howard, would know that
he, Foster, had fixed Reed. Howard
said he met Foster the day following
Reeds murder.
Five months after conviction the
second time and after sentence had
been passed, It vas discovered that
Howard was at the time he claimed

While weather conditions practical
" throughout the country were reas-
onably favorable to growing crops
during the month of August, the crop
report just issued by the department
of agriculture did not indicate gener-
ally much improvement in the condi-
ton of the crops over that of month
ago.
Some improvement was shown in
the great staple crop of corn as OF
September LIST over August LIST, but it
amounted to only seven-tenths OF !
per cent in the aggregate. The yield
of corn this year, as indicated by to-
days report, will be 1856 bushels per
acre, as compared with PA bushels
last year and an average of 27.1 dur
ing the last five years. The acreage
of corn this year, however, is larger
than it was last year and the proba-
bility is that the crop, while it may
be shorter than 1t was last year, Will
not differ greatly in quantity.
Wheat shows falling off of ap-
proximately 10 per cent in condition
as compared with the average for the
last ten years and the yield per acre
is about 2 bushels to the acre less than
the average during the last five years.
Oats also show considerable fall
ing off, both in condition and in aver
age yield per acre. While the indi-
Gated yield for this year is 23.S bush
els an acre, the final yield for 1910
was 31.9 bushels and the average
yield during the last five years was
2S.4 bushels, the indicated total yield
for this year being approximately is
per cent less than the average for the
last five years.-Jeferson Bee.

Hay. tons ................ 14,VVo'ooV
Above shows a shortage OF 737 ,O0O,-
600 bushels of grain and staple vege-
tables and 100000 tons of hay, While
the only crop showing larger than last
wear is fiaxseed, with a yield OF about
5000, 900 bushels over that OF 1910.
Crop losses in July were made up IN
small part only by the favorable
weather in August, according TO the
official report of the department OF
agriculture as OF September LIST.
In fact, the report shows still fur
Their loss in hay-over 100000 tons
the total now being 100000 tons
short of that of last year, and 49,
$4,000 tons below the average OF the
last five years and 23,S29,0oo tons be-
low the record crop OF 70,79S'OOO tons
raised in 1908.
The report comes as decided sur
prise to the residents of the great
corn belt of the Mississippi valley,
who have been confidently predicting
from their own observation that the
crop was making splendid progress
during August and that many OF the
ills complained of month ago had
largely disappeared. Further evidence
as the crop ripens and fills viii De
necessary to convince the corn belt
that there has been disaster here
such as the government figures would
indicate.
The official showing is for loss in
the seven so-called surplus states OF
approximately 25O,0OO,000 bushels out
of the total losses of 390,O00,OOO bush
els credited to the crop as compared
with last year.
Despite the losses these states have
produced more than half of the crop
of the United States and the showing
is by no means bad, except as COM
pared with the phenomenal yield OF
last wear. In fact, it would be we'll
for the trade at large and the busl-
ness world in general to note that
the comparisons are with phenomenal
iy large instead OF with ordinarily
bountiful crops.
The most unfavorable comparison
of all is in the hay yield. Careful
saving of all available rough feed and
forage will be necessary to keep the
supply of feeding stuffs up to the
proper standard during the coming
winter.
