 1 Danville, H., Feb. 10.-The Yer million county grand jury filed its preliminary report of PIG true bills with Judge ID. R. Kimbrough late this afternoon. Four prominent Repub- lican politicians of Uncle Joe" Can- mons home town, are charged with serious crimes as a result of the in- vestigation into scandalous vote traf- fic in Vermillion county.
 At the last minute the grand jury decided to withhold it's additional 100 indictments for vote selling that have been prepared. The indictments will be returned in patches next week to stimulate the fear that the grand jury finds an aid in securing confessions from vote buyers.
 The regular criminal calendar in- cluding all jail cases has now been covered and the grand jury will de- vote the next two weeks solely to vote traffic cases.
 A number of the grand jurors ap- pealed to States Attorney LewmaA today to find a way to bring Speaker Cannon back from Washington to tes- tify in the vote probe. The prosecu- tor told them that their subpoenas had no effect outside the state of Hi nois and that there was no way they could force Uncle Joe" to come be- fore them until he returns to the state, after the adjournment of Con- gress. r.-.'
 Mr. Cannon's associates in the Fed eral clique says he has given up his vacation trip to Paris and will return here as soon as he lays down the gav- el.

 terested.

Little Rock, Ark, Feb. 10.-The state is going into the farm demon stration work on its own account, and this year it will have 100 acres of choice land at the state farm cultivat- ed under the most approved methods in agriculture for the purpose of giv- ing support and impetus to the farm demonstration work in Arkansas, and particularly for the purpose of exper- imenting against the encroachment of the boil weevil at the farm.
 Some time aao the penitentiary board gave its endorsement to this project and today J. J. Moore, de- monstrator of farm work, for large section of Southern Arkansas, with headquarters at Hope, is in the city for a conference with Commissioner of Agriculture Phillips relative to initial plans MT. Moore is probably one of the best posted demonstrators in the south, so far as the fight against the boil Weevil is concerned, having dir ected the work against this pest over nearly the whole of the cotton district in this state where there is weevil affection. For this reason the peni- tentiary board asked his cooperation.
 Of the 100 acres planned as an ex- perimental crop thirty acres will be planted in cotton, thirty acres in corn and the remainder in alfa1fa. Three and three varieties of cotton, each variety having a ten-acree plat One of the main objects will be to see what variety of these crops is best adapted to the state farm.
 For some years the state has pro duced very successful variety of cotton at the farm known as the Black Rattler," and this will be one or the varieties experimented with.
 Evidences of Boil Weeyil.
 Already there are evidences of boil weevll at the farm, and Mir. Moore oouots if the present variety of cot ton Is the best adapted to growth 1nere under weevil conditions. He is or the opinion that variety that ma lures earlier or at least one in which tae boil "sets' at the earliest possible oate will be the variety that will ulti- llateiy have to be used at the farm.
 This is true generally in the crus- ade against the weevil, explains MT. Aoore doubts if the presevbgkqj ,.: aoore, and unless something of this Sort Is introduced at the farm the time uay come when no variety can be 'alsed there successfully.

President Lauds Farmer as King and Favors Canad-
 ian Reciprocity.

Reciprocity Means Closer Business and Social Relations,
 He Says.
International News Special

lnlernatl0nal News Special
 Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 1O.-President Taft took today what is conceded to be the greatest stride towards the att tainment of the Canadian reciprocity. In brilliant address before the Nat ional Corn Exposition he declared the farmer need cherish no delusion that he will be slaughtered to be recip- rocity holiday, but advanced the con- trary proposition that he would be the greatest benefactors of it. His address was bold, strong and drastic. He reached his climax when he said:
 Let the agreement be adopted and go into operation and within six months the farmers on the border who now have fears will rejoice in this great step towards closer business and social relations with our neigh bors.'
 The attitude of the four thousand farmers and produce merchants, who heard him was luke warm. Only twice in the course of his long speech did they applaud. Applause was drawn once when he declared: ''The Ameri- can farmer is king" Political observers believe that the presidents masterly address will go far towards silencing the present op- position of the agricultural interests to the Canadian pact. While freely acknowledging that the bars on many manufactured products would have brushed aside had Canada given her consent, the President made plain strength of his conviction that the farmer of the. United States had not been discriminated against and pre- sented a splendid array of facts and figures in support of his convictions.

UNRAYFL|NC A
 DOUBLE MURDER Constable Stewart Arrests Four Negroes and One
 Confesses. ALL ARE JAILED HERE Old Couple Called From Home on False Report and Shot Down
 ill Road.
ALL ARE JAILED HERE

Jack iBlackman and Etta Johnson, of Noble Lake, and Charles Hawkins and Will Clay of Moscow, Ark, all negroes, were brought to this city last night by Constable Frank Stew art and his two negro deputies, Jim Moore and Robert Johnson, and lodg ed in the county jail to await all in vestigation that promises to unravel the double murder mystery, which re- gently threw the people of the Mos COW neighborhod and especially the negro residents, into state of wild excitement. The quartette of negroes were committed to jail by Magistrate J. A. Frazier. Two of them are charg- ed with murder and the other two with accessory.
 Blackman is a nephew of Mary Cor don, an old negro woman, who with her husband, John Gordon, were bru- tally murdered last Tuesday night at a point about quarter of mile from Captain M. w. Wares store at Moscow. The bodies were found the next morning, lying about forty yards apart. The old negro man was shot through the head and his wife receiv- ed two bullets, one in the breast and the other in her back, either of which would have proven fatal. The as sassinatiOns were cold blooded affairs and every effort to get clue to the guilty parties failed until yesterday, when Constable Stewart went to Mos COW to work on the case and within a few hours after his arrival secured a confession from one of the negroes and enough evidence to warrant the arrest of the three others.
 Clay and Hawkins were arrested at Moscow and were being brought to this city, when Constable Stewart, who was preparing to leave the train at Noble Lake to arrest Blackman and the Johnson woman, spied the cou- pie boarding the train to Pine Bluff. After they got aboard, Constable Stewart and his deputies took them in charge and the four were jailed immediately after their arrival.
 After he was put through a sweat ing process Constable Stewart brought forth full confession from Blackman. He said that he was with Will Clay on the night of the double tragedy.
 He knew his old aunt had about $500 on her person and that she kept it in homemade belt around her waist Blackmkan went to the house of the aged couple, near Moscow, and told them that their little grandchild was sick They were going to the child at the home of it's parents, a short distance away, when Blackman says. they were shot down and rob- bed. He would not admit that he did the shooting, nor would he tell who did. The old woman tried to run after her husband was shot down. but a bullet felled her forty or fifty yards away. After being killed the woman's clothes were torn from her body and $500 in money taken from around her waist. Blackman, admitted to Constable Stewart last night that he had received $2OO Of

 How to Fight the Weey;,


 LII combating the weevil Mir NIoora recommends as the most successful method that of gathering the cotton squares or forms that first make .neif appearance and destroying them Ill order to get rid of the early holl "eeVlls' It is the earliest corners Vhat multiply with the greatest rapid- lty ana do the greatest damage This gathering can be done with a rela- lively small cost and may be the means of virtually protecting the later portions of the crop.
 Then the ground should be cnlti- vated shallow with light harrow in stead Of being subjected to deep blow ing.
 One of the greatest enemies of the weevil is the hot sum-" says MT. Moore, and hence it is a grave mis. take to cultivate the ground deep. thus covering up and keeping moist the cotton forms that fall from the stalk with weevils in them.
 The cultivation should he very shallow, sufficient to keep the mois- ture near the surface through the principle of capillary attraction. but not deep enough to cover up these fallen squares They should be al- lowed to stay where the sun can strike them and dry them up. This stops the food source of the weevil and prevents multiplication. The hot sun, in fact, will serve to gradually drive the weevil out
 MT. Moore believes that with judi cious seed selection, picking the var letles that mature early and with this gathering and destruction of the ear ly forms of the cotton, combined with shallow cultivation and wide planting where the cotton is inclined to rank growth, the danger of the boil weevil can be reduced to a minimum.
 'Otherwise,' he says, ''the en- croachment of the boil weevil is a positive menace to the cotton industry in the entire south''
 Su%oeSts Seed Farm.
 In this connection MT. Moore sug- gests the maintenance by the state of a seed farm or plot of ground segre- gated from the main farm on which is to be grown the vest varieties of seed for planting purposes, these be- ing judiciously bred up each year un- til the highest possible degree of eX- cellence in seed itself is obtained Proper seed means much, both in the time of maturing and in the yield of the product, he says.
 During the ensuing season MT. Moore will visit the farm at inter- vals of twenty to forty days, person ally directing the method of crop cul- tivation~ The work, of course, will be done by the state farm convicts, un- der the direction of the penitentiary board and farm superintendent The penitentiary board and Commissioner Phillips heartily endorse the demon stration project.
