LIFT EMBARGO FROM SPUDS

Universityof Nevada, with the Cal
ifornia horticulturists whereby the
embargo is to he lifted from the
Nevada potatoes awaiting trans
portation to the western sections.
A few days ago it was given
out that strict quarantine would
be placed on the Nevada tuber.
The matter was at once taken up
by the University professor. At
the last session of the legislature
sum Of five hundred dollars was
appropriated to handle just such a
condition. The work is now under
way.
BY the arrangement is made with
the California commissioners the
embargo will be lifted on districts
where the Gel worm is not in evil
dence or afflicted with the evil. In
such pla ces as the disease is know n

In case cargo of potatoes is

are to be appointed Immediately,

of potatoes are awaiting trans

JUST FAPOOOOLE

The New York Herald in COM
menting on Roosevelt's article in
the Outlook in which he con-
demned President Taft's trust
policy, says:
This is not the first of April,
gentlemen.
Therefore be all the more on
your guard. If you notice in any
of our esteemed contemporaries
the suggestion that. the editorial
in the The Outlook from the pen of
Mr.. Roosevelt is a declaration that
he is a candidate for anything
except the Alibi Club, accept it
not.
The difficulty in which Mr..
Roosevelt is involved-and, be-
lieve US, it is difficulty-is that
he has been named as a corespon-
dent in the governments suit to
divorce the Steel Corporation and
Tennessee Iron. He cannot be
indicted and fined: he cannot be
enjoined and dissolved. But all the
same he is on the defensive and on
trial, and he is smarting as he has
seldom smarted before. If Mr..
Taft had only regarded the old
maxim, What is the Constitution
hechune friends" all might have
been we'll. But now all the heart
of. Oyster Bay is on fire and "silker
dalliance in the wardrobe lies"
A little more than a year age
Mr.. Roosevelt was walking arount
club in hand, inviting Mr.. Taft t.
knock chip off his shoulder
Instead Mr.. Taft has kicked hin
on the shins and hustled him int,
the witness box for cross-examina
ton.
AS to the editorial itself, 1t viii
be read with MKT feelings. Nov
it looks like politics and then lik,
hum or. Now it looks like heroic
and then like fapdoodle.
First you see that the Sherman
Act is abominahlc because it ha
not sen: the Tobacco and Oh
Trusts directors to Jail, as the.
are the unregencrate of the earth
then you see that it is infamou.
because il is being invoked agains
the Steel Corporation, and it
directors are above reproach. Tn
inspiration is wounded vanity
and subject-matter personal cqua
ton.
Therefore VIC strongly incline t
the opinion that this deliveranc
is not politics, nor humor, no
heroes, but really hapdoodle
after all.

DISTRICT COURT

The district court was in ses-

drawn from Makers case. The
withdrawal was entered in the
record. The court then called on
Mahcr to plea. Mahcr then rose
ard said that he plead not guilty
with the privilege of withdraw
ing the plea and entering de-
murrer.
Judge Taher refused to receive
the plea and stated to Maher that
he had h2cG under arrest for q
long time and knew all about Il
cvidCn against him and had mac
plenty of time to get counsel and
prepare his dcfense. That the
time set fnr the trial court was
close at hand and that the plea
must be entered today, or de
nurrcr filled so that the court
could dispose of it before the time
set for the trial court and that M
more delays would be granted. He
ihen gave Mahcr until 4 :3t
