7HE great destruction
" that has befallen the

" that has befallen the
cotton industry of the
South through the boil weevil
serves as a warning to those
portions of the West that are
being endangered thru the
alfalfa lead weevil which has
wrought great damage to the
alfalfa producing sections in
the "icinity of Salt Lake City,
u tab. The known instances
Of the spread of this great
pest in Colorado and other
sections of the country has
emphasized the necessity of
something being done that
will insure the checking of
the alfalfa leaf weevil before
it is too late. The Boards of
Trade of Phoenix and Mari
copa County have sent mem
orials to Congress to meet
the enemy of alfalfa, and it is
recited in the document that
I2o, 900 acres is devoted to
alfalfa in Arizona. Of this
$4,000 acres is in the Salt
River irrigation project of the
United States Reclamation
Service. On a basis of $50
an acre, the investment in
Arizona is shown to be sufflc-
iently large to warrent care
being taken to prevent harm
falling to the industry. 1t is
said in relation to the alfalfa
leaf wee%al that-the danger
through direct flight is not
great and if the pest can be
isolated, its spread may be
prevented. The real danger,
however, most feared, is that
the weevil will be carried in
railroad cars starting from the
affected district i'll Utah, and
thus carry the weevils into
the interior of other alfalfa
regions. AS the transporta-
ton from Utah is directed
largely into the vicinity of
the alfalfa fields of Kansas,
this latter section is in con-
siderable danger. The warn
ing issued by the Arizona
people, if needed, will no
doubt eventually save the
alfalfa interests of the country
many millions of dollars in
the destruction of crops.

AIKEN POLICEMAN KILLED.
Dies Almost Instantly After Being
Shot by Prominent Citizen of that


Shot by Prominent Citizen of that
County.
Aiken, Nov. 17-Wade Patterson,
who for about 81 years has been a
policeman in this city, was this after
noon shot and instantly killed by
James Seigler, well-known man OF
this city. Patterson was shot while
on duty at the corner of Main street
and Park avenue in the principal bus
mess section of the town. The body
of the dead man was carried to the
undertaking establishment of Powell
Hardware company, where it lies to-
night. An inquest will be held tomor-
row morning at 10 o'clock by Coron-
ner Johnson.
There were several eye witnesses to
the homicide, but none of them will
make any statement tonight. Patter-
son was shot several times with 80
Savage magazine pistol.
1t is said that the officer had ar
rested Seigler for cursing just few
minutes previous to the shooting and
that Patterson had allowed Seigler to
give bond in the sum of $3.50. Seig-
Ter is said to have given Patterson a
five-Collar bill and before Patterson
had given him the change the killing
occurred, AS to what took place be-
tween the two mon during that time is
uncertain &nd the statements are con
hictinG.
One statement is that words
were passed in which Seigler com
planned of not being treated right, and
that the officer told him that he, Seig-
Ter. knew that he was i'm the wrong. at
which Seigler quickly drew his pistol
and fired at least three times. The
balls were of steel and one of them
is said to have passed through Pat
terson's body and was picked up on
the sidewalk. Seiglcr is a farmer and
one of the largest planters in the
count".
WAcn asked for statement John
A. Seigler, brother of James Seigler,
said that he had nothing to say fur
ther than his brother stated he had
to kill Patterson. Patterson is sur
vived by wife and several children.
He was considered one of the best Off
GERS on the force.
Seigler is in Jail.
