State Senator Arthur p. German,

President Taft was now going about
the country defending reactionary pol.

That points out precisely the weak

to defend them. And when policies

Democratic Victory Assured.

The nation can look on the whole
business with the certainty that It
will matter little how strong or how,
weak Mr.. Taft's supporters or his op-
ponents may be when they shall meet
to decide their affairs In national con-
vention. For the assurance grows
stronger, day by day. that their party
will be defeated in the national elec.
ton.

The 1911 production of wheat
for Missouri was nearly thirty
million bushels, but as large as
this yield is lis only utenough
to provide bread for Missouri's
own population until next crop is
harvested. There still is room
enough here to double this pro-
duction, and the surplus could
easily be sold in the cotton re-
gions directly south of this state.
Recent experiments have shown
that an average 60-acre Missouri
farm, valued at $1,000, if run
along scientific lines, is equal in
producing power to a 120-acre
farm in other states, valued at
$4,000, which is being cultivated
in the ordinary way. In two
years, il the proper care is exer-
cised, such a Missouri farm pays
for itself. Wheat and corn can
be raised, but straw wberries, pota-
toes and tomatoes will be found
to be good revenue producers,
with poultry and eggs as profit
able side lines.

LITTLE CHANCE FOR
IRRIGATION BILLS
Session of Congress Too Short
to Reconcile Differences
About Them.
By Ernest q. Walker.

(Mail Special to The Advertiser,)
WASHINGTON, December 30.-Tht
Hawaiians at Washington are still
necessarily marking time, for the holi
days are not yet over and it will be
nearly a week before congress recon
venes. w. w. Goodale has arrived
here, in behalf of the Wahawa Water
Company, to oppose the bill which pro
vides for the use of certain waters fol-
irrigation projects now under contem
plation. That bill is still at the wal
department and no report or recon-
mendation will be made thereon till
full opportunities for the various in
terested parties to appear have been
given.
Governor Frear's proposed amend
ments to the general irrigation bill
have also reached Washington and are
under consideration at the interior de-
partment. Mr.. John T. McCrossOn,
now in New York, has expressed a
willingness to accept any reasonable
amendments, as heretofore stated.
There is a feeling, however, that it will
be difficult to obtain any legislation
for irrigation projects in Hawaii at
this session. The time is very short
and it is doubtful whether differences
of view can be reconciled and the
opposition allayed during one brief ses.
sion of congress,
Colonel Sam Parker and his attor.
ney, Frank Thompson are also in New
York, and are expected 10 arrive in
Washington within a few days. Ii is
understood here that Delegate Kalan.

THEATER COMBINE
MAY SPLIT UPON
LIST OF ASSETS

The proposed combine of the theaters
and moving picture houses which has
been on the tapis for the past week
may not come to focus after all. Some
of the managers and owners can not
agree as to who shall have the balance
of power and the general management,
and on this rock the whole proposition
may split.
There has been some difference of
opinion also over the findings of the
appraisers. In the appraisers list the
New Orpheum is put in for $4,000 and
the Bijou fer $4,000, while the Empire
is listed only at $4,000 and the Savoy
$4,000, the Park being down for $4,000.
The figures do not look right to rival
managers and unless the properties are
listed at a more equable figure the deal
may not 60 through.

Each of these indictments was on three
counts. Another indictment was re-

Lee Kai Fai, better known as Doctor
Lee, the editor of the Sun Ching Kwock

matter through the mails. He was in
dicted once before for the same offense,
but the defense entered a demurrer on
the ground that the indictment did not
state on what page of the paper the OBJ
scene matter was printed and the de-
murrer was upheld. He was admitted
to $500 bail.

Senate Passes Bill for Pension
After Sixteen Years Of
Service.
FAVOR SHIP SUBSIDY BILL
Senator GalIinger Advocates It
and Hale Predicts Its
Passage.

WASHINGTON, January 1s.-The
senate, yesterday, passed the bill which
provides for petty officers and sailors
in the United States Navy receiving
retirement pay after sixteen years OF
continuous service.
This bill is intended, primarily, as
an inducemont to young men in the
navy to reenlist, thus providing
well.trained force to man the great
battleships which are building. An
other purpose is to man the great bat
tleships which are building. Another
purpose is to reduce the percentage OF
desertion.
For Longer Service.
The speakers on the bill, advocating
its passage, asserted that it would be
an inducement for the petty officers
and men to remain longer in the navy
and marine corps.
The new ship subsidy bill was
brought up in the senate on third read
ing and Senator Gallinger, its sponsor,
spoke at length in its support Sem
ohNA AAoAO uAou opuhO III llh ldNuE anu
predicted that it would pass.
DiscriminatIve Subsidy.
This is the bill that provides for
a mail subsidy to all American ships
which ply between United States ports
and the various ports of South Amer
lea, its purpose being to increase the
American marine and encourage COM
merce in American bottoms with tho
sister republics of the southern con-
tinent.
Opposition to the bill, as developed,
is on the ground that it is discrimina-
tive, insofar that it provides for a
subsidy for American ships which sail
to section in which only small per-
centage of American commerce is de-
veloped, ignoring the tremendous pos
sibilities of transatlantic and trans
pacific commerce,
