United states Indian agent with head
quarters here. The other night Kel-

when the most fertile land In tho
world produces so much less than
that OF poorer quality elsewhere, and
this low yield shows % tendency toe
ward steady decline, the situation bg-
comes clear. We are rouhug the soil. %
That statement made by President
James j. Hil of the Great Northern
Railway tells briefly what the priu-
a,pM subject of discussion win De at
the National Conservation Congress
TO be- held iu Kansas city September
2o 20 2N. Conservation of the soil Will
bee the main purpose of the meeting;
ln ST. Paul last year the main sub
icct was "Public Lands" the year
previous 10 was "Foerst Conscrva-
ton" This time the meeting is being
held In the heart OF the agricultural
country and Saving the So.i' is To
be the one important topic
Mr.. hin, who certainly is studying
agriculture from the dollars and cents
view point as president OF the great
railway hystem has made a study Of
what ne calls Soil Abuse Some OF
the results of Investigations that he
has been responsible for i'm this line
are best given in his own words, lie
says
"Takc the case Of wheat, the main
stay of s.ngle-crop abuse. Many Of
us can remember when New York
was the great whoat-produciug state
of the Union. The average yield of
wheat per acre in New York for the
last ten years was about is bushels.
For the first five years of that 1O-
year period it was 1874 bushels. and
for the last five years ia bushels.
Farther west, Kansas takes high rank
as a wheat producer Its average
yield per acre for the last 10 years
was 1416 bushels. For the first five
of those years it was 1914 and for
the last five years l3.lS. Up I'm the
Northwest, Minnesota wheat has
made a game all over the world. Her
average yield per acre for the same
10 years was 1896 bushels. For the
first five years 1t was 1912, and for
the last five years 12.S. We perceive
here the working Of uniform law in
dependent of location, of soiL or Of
climate. II is the law Of a diminish
ing return due TO soil destruction.
Apply this TO the country at large
and it reduces agriculture to tho con
dition of bank whose depositors are
steadily drawing out more money than
they put I'm.

ing of Mel Lewis, the young man arr
rested night before last in connection
with the finding Of little Vera Ilcn-
bricks, IS years old, in a piuablc con-

appear this morning in the county at
torncys office Chief Ncwhlock stat
ed that he had no authority to hold
Lewis unless some charge was pre-
ferrod, and any charge which the
case demanded should be made boy the
county.
The fact that Lewis is connected
with influential politicians IN this
county has added zcst to the talk on
the streets. S. r. Buok Lewis,
'hrother Of the late prisoner Is chair
man Of the County Democratic Cen
ual Committee, and it Is freely
charged that the strings were pulled
for Mel Lewis release.
II was impossible to get into COM

They got on a car and went down
town where they met Kirk and Mef

Legislature had an opportunity to pick
out the best of the bills offered; that
is, to select the one which provided
most completely for the protection of
the people, Irrespective of who were
the persons seeking the franchises.
Thinks Senate Will Kill Bill.
The Senator was of the opinion that
the bill providing for the election of
three supervisors from the leeward
side of this island, of three from the
windward side, and for the election of
one supervisor -at large running from
the entire county. would meet its fate
in the Senate.
"Of course, the bin has passed the
House." said the Senator. But the
Senate does not like the measure and
II seems extremely unlikely that it will
pass. AS a matter of fact, the bill
will be referred to the delegation from
this island and the members of the
Hawaii delegation do not like 1t, and
as they have the power to do with it
what they please, the passage of the
bill Is certainly not to be expected"

his friends who are influential with
