What is the Matter With the SARATOGA Valley?

The above article from the Saratoga Sun is selfexplantory. 1t
betrays a condition which has existed and still exists in many parts
of the stste-a seeming determination o the part of certain people
and interests to prevent agricultural development and to keep the
state for an open stock range as long as possible.
The Mccall project is not the only one which has been hampered
and delayed by selfish, unprincipled butt-iD skys. The French
creek project has had to contend with the same kind of interferences,
and in this case the mouthpiece of the opposition il neither high in
authority nor powerful in influence, its influence being limited to the
prestige of a little state senatorship from Carbon County. ALI
kinds of lies concerning the non productiveness of lands of this val
ley and the integrity of the promoters of the project have been scat
tered drought the agency of this fgurehead official among the pros
pechve settlers, to the detriment of the whole county.
The Herald has told his name and address many times. The Sun he'll
ped to elect him. If the Sun wants to expose somebody, here is it's
opportunity. The Herald will gladly put Editor Crawford in touch
with people who will furnish all the information required.
The Sun should remember that it does not require brains nr in
huence to concoct lies, OF to repeat those originated by others. An
ASS can kick to pieces with its heels structures that represent years of
labor of honest brainy men.-Encampment Harald.
The Sun fully agrees with the Herald in it's statements in the
first and last paragraphs in the above article, but it does not for a
moment believe that the gentleman referred to has circulated lies con.
corning the French creek project, or the non-productiveness of the
lands in this valley, for 1t knows that he intended to finance that pro.
jet, if permitted to do SO, and bring in settlers to colonize the lands
something he certainly could not afford to dc if he wereg going to bring
settlers in.
If the Herald has information at its command why does 1t not
ion line. She Sun is not seeking to expose" any particular man.
but simply to arrive at the facts why this valley stands still while all
the rest Of the state makes commendabe progress.

What ought TO be Done to Him?

What ought to be done to the man who will ride his horse in
from the country, at such II speed that he is wet with sweat, and then
tie him up to a horse rack and leave him there for hours with the mer-
curry standing at zero? Now don't all speak at once. We have seen
hat thing done more than once this present winter and the coat of
the poor dumb brute was tinged with frost as it shook and shivered

1t will Be Roosevelt Now Seems Quite Certain

There seems to be a tide setting in toward Roosevelt for 1912 that
nothing is able to stem. Taft seems to have lost his hold on the
people for some reason and when a President once does that it is
extremely hard for him to regain his footing. If Roosevelt is no.
minated at Chicago in June it will be useless for the democrats to
name a man to un against him, for he is a sure winner.

And we IRE still wondering who the Cheyenne man was who was
so kind rs to put spoke in the wheels of progress in this valley by
"loading up" the Cincinnati capitalist with facts" concerning the
possibilities here to the extent that the whole bunch of intended in

ering, but we will get there, bye and bye.

TAFT SHOULD BE REELECTED.

President Taft should be reelected
because he has given the country an
honest and effective administration.
The three years of his term have been
characterized by business stability and
unexampled prosperity. He has main
tanned the high standing of the United
States among the nations of the world
In his efforts to secure international
peace he has elevated this republic to
the highest plane among world pow
ers. Thus, under his administration,
there has been material and moral adj
vancement at home and increased re-
spect for the United States abroad.
He has been a fearless and impair
tial administrators of the laws. He
has prosecuted the illegal trusts more
numerous!y, more actively and more
effectively than any of his predeces-
sors. He has shown great wisdom III
dealing with national problems and he
has shown courage and decision in
meeting international questions, such
as the abrogation of the Russian
treaty. Above all, he has kept faith
with the people and has maintained
constitutional government.
He has been good business presi.
dent. The tariff board, through which
the tariff would be taken out of poll
tics, was his idea. He personally
scrutinized all the details of govern
mental expenditure and he organized
the efficiency and economy commits
sion which has saved the people mil
lions of dollars.
His wise recommendations for the
betterment of social welfare have re-
suited in the enactment of many ben
eficial laws.
With courage, ability and wisdom,
he has conducted the affairs of the ma
ton. That his work, done without
ostentation or self praise, has pro-
duced great results, is demonstrated
by the splendid condition in which the
country finds itself today.-Woodbine
Twiner.

Short Course Lectures.

There is an increased demand for
short course instruction by farmers
clubs. This demand seems to come
from practically all the states where
there has been effort made to inter.
est the farmer and the farmers boy.
The interest taken by some county
school superintendents has aroused a
sentiment for the short course.
The farmers institute has also been
prolific source of stirring up a de-
sire for the short course to be held in
various communities in the nature OF
lectures on crops, live stock, dairying
horticulture, etc. This system Of ag-
ricultural instruction going to the
farmer in his own home or school dis
trict, is the best evidence of sincerity
in his work and at once enlists the
sympathy of the person of little faith
in his work. The present plan OF
demonstration by going to the farmer
and instructing him how to do his
work is the key to rapid improvement
in better methods of farming.
There is no feature of organization
that can equal the county school su-
perintendent when in touch with his
work. The teachers of the county
have practically the control OF the
boys and girls, and the boys and girls
have control of the parents and can
influence to any reasonable degree in
carrying into effect good attendance
at the short course instructions or
lectures that the superintendent may
plan to arrange for. County school
superintendent should be interested
in agriculture and agricultural in
uction.-Twentietn Century Farm

DISTRICT COURT
ENDS SATURDAY
Court and Jury Struggling to Dispose
Of the Business on the Calendar
This Week.
WILL CLOSE SATURDAY NEXT
Mrs. kimbaiI Released from Guardian
ship-Case Of TolIe vs. Book
Goes Over to November.

The district court is grinding away
on the third week of the term, with
the court and jury struggling to dis
pose of the business on the calendar
The term will close on Saturday OF
this week with quite large number
of cases postponed until the Novem
Der term OF court.
The only case up for consideration
last week after the paper came out
was the case in which Mrs. Kimball
applied to the court to be released
from guardianship. After hearing the
evidence, an order was made dis.
charging her from guardianship.
Another case was that of TOlle VS.
F. C. Book, of Manila, which is a
suit brought by the plaintiff for
breach of promise, claiming substan.
tial damages for losing husband in
the person of the defendant after he
had agreed to marry her, as she con-
tends. The defendant insists that it
is all mistake, and that he did not
agree to marriage contract with her
and says that he should not be called
upon to pay any damages. The case
when called for trial was continued
until the November term of court.
On Monday the case of G. B. Coin,
of Charter Oak, against Robert Hast
was called for trial before the jury.
The suit is brought to recover COM
mission of $65O.OO for efforts on the
part of plaintiff in trying to sell de-
PENDANTS farm. The case is nearing
conclusion and will be submitted to
the jury this afternoon.
The next case for trial is an action
brought to have permanent guard
ian selected for George Hester, whose
home is near Buck Grove. This case
will probably take two or three days
for it's trial.

Grades and City Grants Same.
Mayor Laub at Sioux City

The city council is strongly cOnsid-
ering lowering the grade on fremont
street in front of the w. A. McHenry
property and has instructed the city
engineer to prepare new grade at
that point. Mr.. McHenry and other
property owners in that vicinity wish
to build permanent water ways and
Mr.. McHenry is willing the street
should be taken down about three
feet. 1t is proposed to move some
OF ,..e dirt west on fremont and level
up the intersection at Sweet and Ire
mont. me remainder of the dirt will
be taken east and the street filled be-
tween Locust and Washington avenue.
That part of fremont street has al
ways been in very unsatisfactory
condition. and the property owners
will be glad to learn of the contem-
plated action of the council
The council held meeting Monday
night and decided on sidewalk grade
on the south side of Benefit street be-
tween Main and MathewsOn. Mr..
Henry Schwartz desires to build a
home on his lot at that point and in
order to do so the sidewalk grade
was necessity.

FAIRNESS TOWARD NEGROES
raft's' Attorney General Stands for the
"Souare DEAL"

"Square DEAL"
Attorney General Wickersham re-
fleets the broad American spirit Of
himself and his chief, President Taft,
In his splendid fight against the
dropping from membership in the
American Bar association of his able
colored assistant. William H. Lewis,
1t is needless to say that every sup
porter Of Woodrow Wilson and every
sympathizer with Theodore Roosevelt
In his refusal to recognize the citizen
ship of the southern negro, is opposed
to Mr.. Wickersham in his battle for
equal rights and fair treatment for
colored Americans.
The action of the executive commit
tee of the Bar association In revok-
Ing the election of three colored mem.
bers, gentlemen of spotless profession
al standing and excellent personal
character, by their local committees,
was outrageously, cruelty unjust and
ought to be repudiated by every
reputable lawyer in the United States.
1t was concession to that southern
Democratic prejudice which seeks to
crush the spirit of manly aspiration
In the negro's breast and to tolerate
him only as laborer on the planta-
tons and for the households where his
ancestors were slaves. 1t amounts to
an attempt to nullify the constitution
Of the United States, as amended after
the rebellion, by men whose sacred
obligation and welcome duty 1t should
be to support that instrument in their
every act as lawyers and as citizens.
In their resolute backing of Assist
ant Attorney General Lewis against
the assaults Of rank Bourbonism and
racial prejudice, President Taft and
his attorney general have the god
speed Of every American who believes
in the principles for which Lincoln
died, and who Is determined that the
sacrifices which the nation offered up
on the altar of freedom and equal
rights for all shall not have been made
in vain.

What Happened.

All, if the workingmen of this coun-
try could only know how they have
been fooled about the protective tar
if working for their benefit Why,
If the protective tariff was relieved
at great many points, this is what
would happen, that American industry
would take on a new size and speed
Prof. Wilson
Why, certainly that is what would
happen-just as it did the last time
the protective tariff was relieved"

The Difference.


From the Belvedere ml.) Repub-
lican:
The difference between the Roose-
welt and Taft administrations is that
Mr.. Roosevelt talked loudly against
those whom he called "malefactors,"
and secretly protected some OF them
from the law, while Mr.. Taft has made
no threats, but has just enforced the
laws
