TAFT, FISHER AND TIE BoRAH
BILL.

We have had presidents who hold
the opinion that they we're perfectly
capable of ruling upon every question
which might come up in connection
with our Government, but President
Taft realizes that there are many ques-
tons which are so complex that it re-
quires all of one mans time and atten-
ton to keep informed sufficiently to be
able to judge of the probable results Of
proposed changes in the laws relating to
those questions.
Taft has long realized that our land
laws need revising to meet the changed
conditions but he was not sufficiently
posted regarding the, subject to recon-
mend any specific legislation along this
line. In order to gather the necessary
information Secretary Fisher made an
extended tour of the public land states
last year and upon his return he submit
ted report setting forth such changes
as he deemed advisable at this time.
Those who had the opportunity of OBJ.
serving Mr.. Fishers work in connection
with our public lands assert that he is
not only the best posted but the most
careful man who ever filed the Office.
President Taft has every reason to re-
pose in Secretary Fisher the utmost con-
fidence and it was only to be expected
that he would be governed largely by
Secretary Fishers recommendations in
all public land matters.
After all this exhaustive study and
careful planning Congress showed its
contempt of the Interior Department by
passing, without any careful considera-
tion, the Borah Bill as it was originally
introduced. The Secretary saw wherein
the bill would cause trouble If it became
law and he repeatedly went before the
various committees who had the matter
in charge and finally succeeded in show
ing them the necessity for making some
changes in the bill before passing it.
This Three Year Law as it was passed
does not accomplish as much as the Sec
| retary would have liked, but neverthe
less he favored the bill in its present
form and it was upon his recommends,
tion that President Taft affixed his sig
nature to the measure just two days
after it was sent to him for that purpose
The Secretary and the President did
not oppose this bill but they did insist
that it should be so amended as to be q
benefit and not detriment to the coun'
try. Some of the amendments insisted
upon by Mr.. Fisher were detrimental tc
the interests of the lumber barons and
coal and oil men and a great howl wal
raised by them against the Department
but the actual settler has no reason tc
complain of the attitude of the Depart
ment in this matter. Coyote.

GOOD ROADS.

Good roads is subject Of vital i'm
portance now since the automobile has
come into SO general use. The farmer
has been willing to pull his loads Of
grain and other produce OF the farm
through the mud to market, giving but
little thought to the road after it was
opened up except to complain of its al
most impossible condition in the spring
season and in periods of very wet wealth
or. The farmer can get used to almost
anything and demand but little assist
ance, and this has been his custom too
generally in his relation to the public
highways.
The old system of road working has
about run its course and improved meth
DDS must be substituted.
The Improvement of the public high
way has become question of national
interest since the automobile travel has
taken so general an inventory of the
country roads of the United States and
found them 30 universally deficient in
grade and smooth dry roadbed. The
greatest importance in good roads is in
reality the transportation over them of
the produce of the farm and the ex-
change of merchandise for these pro-
ducts. The farmer must be able to draw
large load to the railroad from the
farm and be able to make good time in
his mode of travel. Time is money now
days with the farmer, as with the bank
or and merchant.
The automobile is the influential in
terest in securing legislation for public
roads improvement, and by this means
the farmer is to receive his share of ad
vantage in the making of the main tray.
eled roads of the country and easier and
better means of travel for the heavy
loads.
| When there is established a uniform
system of good roads all classes of roac
users will be greatly benefited; even the
consumer of the products of the sol
should share in the cheapening of trans
portation from the farm to the city

suffragists Prepare for Hot Campaign,

SSN
The equal suffrage forces of the State
are beginning to show their intention of
again going after the enactment of the
constitutional amendment by the next
legislative session, to give them their
desire for taking part in the elections
of the State. Their first preliminary
move in this direction is the call for a
state mass convention to be held at
Huron, on the oath and 25th of this
month, which has for its purpose the
framing up of campaign to that end,
and the selection Of an official staff fol-
carrying on the work on their propa.
ganda. They are getting down to the
fundamentals of politics as carried on
by men in their political contests, and
will soon be busy.

Railroads to Aid Farmers.

Denver-Ten million dollars will be
poured into the laps of Colorado farm
ers and fruit growers through in
creased crops this year, if the plans OF
Rio Grande, Union Pacific and Burling-
ton railroad officials are successful.
The traffic experts intend to show
the agriculturists how to raise more
and better produce of all kinds, and
will spend millions to accomplish this
result and so swell their tonnage in
this state.
Each system proposes to establish
its own state commission of agricul-
ture, employing the most capable men
who can be found to aid the farmers
and fruitgrowers of Colorado in every
possible way to increase and improve
the quality of products.
President B. f. Bush of the Rio
Grande, President Darius Miller and
General Manager George w. Holdreg ;
of the Burlington and A. L. Mohler,
vice president and general manager of
the Union Pacific, are equally inter-
ested in the plan to develop produc-
tion and freight.
Chemists will conduct laboratory ex
periments with soils and water. Bul
letins will be issued frequently. Farm
ers having difficulties with crops will
be visited by practical scientists and
advice freely given them. No efforts
will be spared to insure as many sue
cessful crops as possible in all parts
of the state.
