GOVERNOR LEAVES
FOR WASHINGTON
Will Take Up Idaho Land
Matters With Depart
ment Of Interior.

Accompanied by State Land Com
missioner George A. Day, Governor
James H. Hawley left this morning for
Chicago and Washington and will not
return until about Dec. Is. His mis-
sion east, as well AZ that of the state
land commissioner. IL to take up with
the federal land departments the issue
OF the transfer Of Idahos lands within
forest reserves, the lieu selections and
other matters in connection with the
policy to be- pursued In the handling Of
land questions in this state. The gov
ernor and land commissioner believe
that they will be able to accomplish
something definite and certain along
this line so that when the new admin
istration comes into power there will
be no question about the policies that
are to be pursued.
The governor has made several trips
east in connection with these land mat
tiers. The last legislature took the
matter up and sent committee east
on the same mission. The result has
been that President Taft signed a
proclamation by which the government
released its claims to school indemnity
sections 16 and SO. within forest re-
serves in this state. By agreement be-
tween the state and the federal gov
eminent Idaho was allowed to make
lieu selections for these sections within
the reserves. Crews OF men have been
in the field locating the sections and
classifying them insofar as the char
acter Of the land Is concerned. With
the transfer the state proposes to select
other public lands outside of the re-
serve in lieu OF the sections within.

why this was. He said it was because
of the greater yield of other crops after
the beets, and the better returns from
the beets themselves, and from the cattle
fed upon beet pulp. A regular rotation
was followed which was practically pre-
scribed and insisted on by the terms of
the lease. This rotation was as follows:

VOTE CANVASSINC
VERY SLOW WORK
Slight Errors Found in Re-
port on the Vote Of Ada
County.

That the .canvassing Of the returns
from the Nov. election in this state
will take longer than was at first an
ticipated, was evident today, although
the state board Of election canvassers
has been working overtime to handle
the big task. 1t will be several days
before the returns can be certified to
and the exact totals and majorities for
all state candidates known.
1t was found after checking back and
forth between the secretary of states
office and the county auditors office In
this county that the slight mistakes
made were due to clerical errors In
adding and transcribing the figures.
The original figures were correct.
There was a reduction made in the
total vote received in Ada county by
John M. Haines, Republican candidate
for governor. The original figures
given him were 2443 The correct fig
ures are 2437. making difference OF
six votes. Hawley's vote in this
county, correct. is 1912. and that Of
Martin 1885, Secretary of State Gif-
ford is given 1922 and Daughters 2176.
A correction Of 10 votes was made in
the totals given Clifford by the county
canvassing board. They gave him ITO
votes in the Fourteenth precinct. but
the correct figure was 10 less, or 100.
1t was discovered that a difference Of
10 votes was found in the totals given
the Socialist presidential electors in
this county.
The check on Ada county shows the
presidential vote cast as follows: Taft
319S, Wilson 1869, Roosevelt 3515, Debs
500 and Chafin 116.
Each county is being checked over by
precincts to assure accuracy, and as
there are % counties to check. it can
be seen the task is a somewhat diff
cult one

try. As = result of the steady eultiva-
ton of the sugar beet in rotation with
other crops. it has been demonstrated
that this tuber is the most efficient unit
which can be installed in the agricultural
factory as it is planned to designate the
farm under the new efficiency plan. As
the beet, however, is already fairly we'll
known in this country, and certain to
achieve still greater popularity. it its
culture is not discouraged by the OPEN
ing of the American market to the
foreign product produced more cheaply
as the result of far lower wages, it is
believed that it will before many years
insure to this country an agricultural
position which no other nation can
approach. Through the encouraged
growth of the sugar beet. Germany is
not only exporting $50.000.00 worth Of
sugar annually but because of its aid in
increasing the output of other crops is
producing yields which are nearly twice
as great as the same lands afforded
before the adoption of sugar beet cul-
ture in rotation with other crops.
An example of these new methods in
which the sugar beet is such an inn
portant factor is furnished in the report
of Mr.. w. H. Baird, as q result Of his
investigations abroad. AS an example
of the highest type of farming. Or
agricultural manufacturing methods, Mr..
Baird cites the case of lcaSehold Of
about 1000 acres near Prague.
THE farm" says Mr.. Baird, was in
two parts or domains, leased from diff
ferent owners and held under twelve
years lease. The two places have been
in the hands of one holder for three
terms Of twelve years each. or thirsy-six
years. and were beginning ct the time on

CONVICT MAKING
ANOTHER EFFORT
TOCA|N FREEDOM
Unusual Features in Case Of
John sayer, in Supreme
Court on Appeal From
Bingham County. .

John Sayer, confined in the Idaho
state penitentiary as a convict serving
a three-year sentence for abortion.
having been committed from Fremont
county, is making desperate effort to
lift the sentence and has succeeded in
carrying his case to the supreme court
of this state on an application for a
writ of mandate directed against Judge
]. NJ. Stevens Of the Sixth judicial dis
trict, who sentenced him. The SUI
prene court has decided to hear argu-
ment on the writ tomorrow. The state
is an interested party to the case as II
appears as plaintiff and prosecutor IN
the action that resulted in Sayer's con-
viction.
1t is alleged in the petition for y
writ of mandate that Judge Stevens
refused and neglected to settle, sign
and file bill of exceptions and state
ment in the action or appeal and asks
that he be required to show cause why
he has not done so. Judge Stevens has
answered declaring that there was de-
lay in the making out of certain pa
pers in the appeal and that it was the
fault of the defendant and his counsel
SO that there was nothing left to do but
to follow the letter of the law and Say
err was sent 20 the penitentiary..
The papers on file in the supreme
court show the facts in the case are
substantially as follows: John Sayar
was arrested during the year 1899
charged with creating an abortion He
was tried in the district court for Bling
ham county, found guilty and sentence
passed Feb. 20, 1909. On May 80, 1912,
he was received at the state peniten-
tiary. Following sentence Sayer APP
pealed from the verdict and was ad-
mitted to bail. Later all extension of
expired the appeal was not perfected
and 1t is stated that E. NJ. Holden, at
torney for the defendant, had been try
ing to secure the costs for the appe al
from the defendant but had failed ard
virtually dropped the case. A bench
warrant was then issued for Sayer, he
was arrested and taken to the peniten-
tiary where he is at the present time.
1t is set forth in the records on file
with the court that the victim of the
abortion was one Mary Robb, who later
died. Sayer declares in assigning err
rors to the court for the convicting him
that the record clearly shows he was
not the guilty party; .iiat he had
nothing to do with abe. zion and did not
aid or abet in it. He charges instead

yield of wheat for ten years was So

yields of rye and barley. The fertility
and the yield from this soil keep up year

were very high He paid all the taxes
and his rents covered every acre within
the boundaries of the farm-ditch banks

IS well as actual farming land, and for
this he paid an average of $16.O an
acre. His total yield on every acre
whether in use or not was $50 an acre.
The prices received for his various pro-
ducts were not very much greater than
in America, and for many of them NOT
as high. For his milk he received 4
