REPORT REFUTES
HARD TIMES CRY

The popular cry, Hard Times.
does not find much foundation in the
report of Secretary Wilson of the
agricultural department last week TO
President Taft. He says that while
the total values of the crops OF l9l /
are not as high as in 1910, there is
great abundance tor all purposes.
The decrease in value is less by per
haps three per cent. but this has TO
do with animals chiefly. and their
products. as the dairy, eggs. wool
butter and poultry. He estimates
for the total crop value of the cOun-
try for the year 1911 the amazing
sum of $S,417,000.000. This is far
beyond anything else at hand to
measure with, ana outstrips other
countries many fold.
The leading crop is corn, of
which about three-Tourths OF the
worlds crop is grown here, and he
finds in this nearly one-third of the
value OF the whole Next to this he
places cotton. hay. wheat. hops, rice,
giving to each of these special men
tion and an estimate Of the great
bulk and value.
Following are some OF the state
ments contained in the report re-
duced to the briefest form:

Southern California and bulbs in

 Sentiment at Washington.
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 30. - As the Arizona Constitution is ex- amined and carefully digested by the Senators and Representatives of the North and South, and particular ly of the East, the sentiment is more intense than expected, that the ex- pressions and the life of the Presi- dent for years will cause him to re- jeet the radical "isms" in the in- strument, and particularly, the recall of judges.

cratic members from the South said he would refuse judgeship, because he would lose his own self-respeet and independence with the recall hanging over his head. Many in both houses refer to Secretary of War Taft's speeches advising the re- jection of the Oklahoma Constitution because of its "isms," which were not so radical as those of Arizona.
 The "insurreeto'' Republicans con tinually lose everything they try for, with no chance to change Taft's often expressed and positive views, and if their strength was massed in favor of adopting the Constitution, it would have no particular influence.

CONFLICT IN REPORT OF MEXICAN
 WAR Federal Officials Say Sonora Rebels
 Are Wiped
 Out
Insurrectos Claim Victory According to Other
 Information
By Associated Press.

DOUGLAS, Ariz., Jan. 30. - The Mexican officials relaxed their cen sorship tonight and showed the As soeiated Press telegrams which not only denied prior reports of the in- surrectos success, but declared that the rebels of Sonora were practically annihilated.
 General Torres, military command CT at Hermosillo, wired Commisario Vasquez at Agua Prieta, that the rev Olutionists were routed at Sahuaripa, and Talamantes, the commander, a former government leader, was killed.
 On the other hand, letters received tonight by officials of a mining com pany here, give exactly an opposite version, saying the rebels had slaughtered the troops of Jefe S. Chiapas at Moetezuma, and Colonel Ojida, who had combined at Toniche for an attack on Sahuaripa, and pie Ojida flying for his life.
 Torres declares the government troops surprised the rebels at Sahaur- ipa church. The letters say the reb- els trapped the Federals, leading them into an apparently deserted town, and then firing on them from the house tops. Reports that Colonel Kostterlitsky was killed or wounded, are untrue. A telegram from him was received here today A force of regulars from Cananea and a troop of Hurdles from Santa Cruz arrived here tonight to guard the custom house. This is taken as an indica- tion that despite the government telegraphie assurances, there is still a lively apprehension that the rebels will attack that point.
