KONKEL ON BROOMCORN
Baca County Farmer An Adept
At 8Toomcorn Raising.

s. M. K0akel, the retired farmer Of
Bsca county. writes entertaininEIy Of his
experience for the past eight years in that
section. The letter is as follows:
II have trOwn broomcorn for eight
yesrs and there has not been one season
when We Got anythisE like . decent re-
museratisa for the brush we raised. On
our sandy loan we csn make about q
fourth Of . ton to the acrs end the highest
that was paid up to last yesr was $65, the
sverats beinl $40 the ton. l have made
Q thorough test Of brooms from our brush
and from eastern shade. cured brush and
il there is any difference il is in favor Of
the western.Grown article. We have all
the natural conditions and ADVANTAGES Of
brush lrowinE, csn produce it at half the
cost Of the eastern grower and thu
factories and wsre houses have taken sd-
vantale Of the fact and our youthfulness
asd paid what they wanted to.
Down here we have not q very extern
sivs choice Of srops and a. broomcorn is
almost indigenous to the country, it con.
tinue TO be one Of the staple productions.
II is my opinion that the rain -belters will
eventually be forced to turn this crop
over wholly to the rainiess west, and by
that time the western man will be in
position to force prices to the scale OF re.
muneration OF other farm products.
For the last ten years this relative re-
Enumeration for brush as compared with
the cereals and other farm products
would not have been less than 500. My
advice to the man in the country to
which corn, spuds and cabbage are es-
pecislly adapted is, to let broomcern
alone, and the man westwsrdly to plant
NO more that he can personally care for,
not over fifteen acres to the man and ten
would be better. 1t is here on our sandy
soils an absolutely sure crop, but the
price will continue to be held down
until we are strong enough to help our.

MAKING History

Los Angeles Express: Callfornlans
are not at all surprised to learn that
it is possible that the political bosses
who are engineering the Taft candl-
dacy may undertake to steal the con-
yeution vote of this state also
Enough has already transpired TO con
vince the country that the reactiOnary
banditti have a definite program which
thew will carry out rather than per-
nit the American public to employ the
Republican party organization as. an
honorable and free vehicle for the
execution OF the expressed will OF the
people.
II is a desperate game these political
tong men are engaged in. NO sane
person believes that a candidate
placed before the people by means 50
disreputable- could Outlive the wave
Of popular resentment which would
sweep over the country.
An administration which has already
come to be regarded weak. spineless
and fabby, now displays unexpected
aggressiVeness in the selfish activity
Of perpetuating itself by riding rough
shod over the votes of the electorate
in the several states. This is attribut-
able to the fact that III disregard Of
consequences it serves the special in
terests whose grip upon it had already
caused the people to repudiate it all
over the country.
If the will of the people is unheeded
at Chicago, il will make itself heard
and understood in November. The men
who are lending themselves TO this
infamous attack upon the administra-
ton that would perpetuate itself by
smothering the popular will, face d
final overthrow that is bound to make
history

Washington February 9.-The postoffice department is investigating land syndi- cates dealing in Florida everglades prop erty, involved in the controversy pertain ing to the department of agriculture, which is to be probed by the House com mittee on expenditures.
 While Reppesentative Clark of Florida, whose charges precipitated the congres- sional inquiry, was preparing for more investigation today, he received a request from the potsoffce inspection division for i, copies of his speech in the House assaiing officials of the agricultural department for their attitude in the everglades dran- age case and for other information he has on the subject
 The inquiry by the expenditures com mittee into the drainage division, the dis charge by Secretary Wilson of Drainage Engineer C. G. Elliott and his assistant. A. D. Morehouse, and the suppression of reports on everglade lands, will begin to- morrow.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
 DECLARED CLOSED Second Lorimer Probe Is
 Nearing End
IS VERY EXHAUSTIVE
Ten Thosuand Pages of Printed Testi- mony Taken, Constituting About
 Five Million Words--Speed Test Ends in Wrangle

Washington, February 9.-Public hear ings in the second senatorial investigation into the election of Senator Lorimer were declared closed today by Chairman Dill lingham of the Senate Lorimer commit tee. Attorney Hanecy, representing Sen ator Lorimer, was given permission to fls a brief to the effect that the senator s election had been adjudicated before the present investigation begun, and there fore it could not be the subject of sec on1 Investigation.
 The inquiry has proved to be one of the most exhaustive ever made by a con gressonal committee. In the eight months hearing about 10000 pages of printed tes- timony were taken, constituting about D. 0OO,0o0 words 1t Is estimated that the stenographers' fees alone reached S15,O00.
 The closing hour of the hearing was g. vertable love feast. The attorneys ex- plained that they had never intended really to display temper, and the com mittee added that 1t had not entertained like intentions. M. w. Blumenberg, the official stenographer, who was discharged for his conduct before the committee Sat urday night, wrote a letter of profuse apology, which was read into the record.
 Edward Hines was the last witness
 
 bribe Miss Helen Seavers, a local tel egraph operator, to see a message a private detective in the case had just sent. After his testimony the com mittee decided at an executive session not to inquire further into an alleged combination against Senator Lorlmer as a result of the Chicago river improve ment or other matters, which the com mittee deemed, after hearing witnesses, did not bear upon the issue.
 The early hours of today's session were marked by tests of the ability of J. F.. Sheridan of a detective agency to make shorthand report of con- yersation such as he swore he made when Charles McGowan was alleged to have admitted receiving money for ''perjuring" himself before the com mittee
 The committee stenographers took notes with Sheridan and the test end ed in q wrangle. The Lorimer lawyers maintained that Sheridan had not made good his promise"
 Representatives of the opposing side claimed a victory"
 Late tonight Hines gave out state ment in which he rehearsed the testi- mony taken In the hearing and declared that he and Senator Lorimer were vic- tims of conspiracy.
 Not one line of competent testi- mony, the statement declared, has been given to prove that l committed dishonest or unfair act with intent 10 secure the election of Senator Lor- imer'

WANTS REDUCTION ! OF CAVALRY FORCE Will Reduce It From 15 to 10
 Regiments
 CAUSES HARD FIGHT Probably Will Be the Cause of An other Fight Before It's Final
 Passage-Increase Appropri-
 ation for Aeroplanes

Washington. Febuary 9.-A reduction of the cavalry force of the United States army from IS to 10 regiments, with a consequent reduction of the en- listed force of the army by 39S0 men, was voted into the army appropriation bill in the House late today after bit ter fight.
 The cavalry bill was presented by Chairman Hay of the military affairs committee, who was in charge of the sSs, 900, 900 appropriation bills. but it did not bear the indorsement of the com mittee. It was vigorously opposed by the republican side of the House and 1t will probably be the cause of another fight when put upon it's final passage,
 Army Top Heavy
 MT. Hay declared the United States army was top heavy with the cavalry Where the British army had cavalry force equal to one-sixth of the infan- try, he said, the American cavalry was equal to one-half the infantry strength.
 The Hay amendment, as adopted to- day. would establish a, maximum of 10 regiments of cavalry. The enlisted men in the five regiments thus to be the officers would be retained and ab- sorbed into other regiments of cavalry or into other branches of the army without reduction of grade. It was esti- mated by Chairman Hay that the inn mediate saving from the reduction in the cavalry force would be s4,376,253.
 Representatives Prince of Illinois, Kahn of California, Butter of Pennsylvania, Anthony of Kansas, and other republi- cans. attacked the Hay amendment in the strongest terms. They declared if any change in the proportion of cavalry was to be made, it should come only after the army authorities had reported com prehensive scheme of reorganization.
 Army Strength
 The present strength of the army is 90 regiments of infantry and 15 regiments of cavalry.
 The Hay amendment, if retained in the final draft of the army appropriation bill, would become effective July l, 1912.
 Appropriations for army aeroplanes was declared to be the most important action Congress could take 10 improve the efficiency of the army by Republican Leader Mann in the House today. Mr. Mann declared the United States was be- hind other nations in the use of the aero plane for war purposes. The republican members made an effort to. increase the s750c0 for aeroplanes carried by the bill to s125O00, but the amendment was de- feated 102 to 76. Chairman Hall of the military affairs committee, declared the bill carried all that had been asked for by the war department MT. Hay said the army has seven aeroplanes and want ed fleet of 20. which would be provided.
