law, appeared to file. Instead of form
ing new lineup, they. by agreemen MT
with the people previously in line
seeking Tieton tracts, took their places
at the foot of the old lineup, their
prior rights with reference to the
Mabton tracts being admitted.
Bruff Gets i'm Also
Bruff then, from his position at the
head of the line announced that he
was on hand for anything that came
his way Public sentiment in the cor
ridors then forced him to the foot of
the ranks, ma king him third for the
Mabton tracts. subsequently on ms
plea that he was filing for his aged
mother and on an agreement to select
the poorest of the three tracts. it IL
alleged, he was given his old place at
the head of the line. This agreement
was arrived at because Frank Harle
of Prosser has preference right
against the Mabton tracts. 1t was be-
1ieved that he would not select the
poorest 40 if he exercised his right
and that Bruff, therefore, would be
safe and that Biggs and Mrs. Slocum,
between them, one or the other. would
have to yield to Harle il he exercised
his right
New situation
But at the last moment two new
men. just Il few minutes before the
land off.re doors opened Monday, APP
peared - we're said to be Brun lleu-
tenants. They formed second lineup,

minute according to those at the MIL
Ter building. reiterated his intention OF
flling for himself merely and of select
ing the poorest 40 When the land OF
fire doors opened for business he was
the first in and he filed on thtb choicest
piece. the northeast quarter of the
southeast quarter of sectlon 4, town

Lahar, respectively he declared Tor
the northwest quarter of the southeast
quarter and the southeast quarter o.
the southeast quarter of the same sec
ton
Loses Out on Time
But it looks as If the entire plan Will
mot work. Time is the essence of the
contract in land Office filings and both
the register and receiver worked when
the rush came. The record shows
that both Mrs. Slocum and Bruf filed
at 9 o'clock, Then the filing of Biggs
was taken by the register and is re-
corded at 9:02, the declaratory state
ments of the civil war veterans being
marked as of 1904 and 9:06 respec-
lively by the receiver. AS the Harle
preference runs for so days yet, it re-
mains to be seen what he will do
Claim Made for Bruff
It was announced definitely last
evening by those who protested to
know that each of the men for whom
Bruff filed the declaratory statements
was in the city Monday and could
have acted in person.
On behalf of the position and atti-
tude taken by Bruff 1t is said that the
alleged agreement had not been per-
fected and was not in force and eff
feet. In opposition to this is the at
titude of those remaining in the line
up, awaiting Tieton lands. who say
that the agreement was in force, that
Bruff signed it. that they have the
document and that verbally the situa-
ton had been accepted up to the very
last minute before the land office
doors were thrown open.

Good Roads Make Neirhbors

Good roads are absolutely necessary
for any farming which goes beyond
the slaves crops-cotton and corn.
Town people need good roads. but can
DO without them, while farmers must
have them. The tax levied upon farm
products to maintain bad roads is too
heavy. and finally takes far more than
would build good roads. Don't forget
that the road subject will come up
soon--the first time you drive over
very bad road. Good roads make
better communities, better schools.
better churches. better neighbors ana
better farms. The neighbor who
drives over a sood road to visit you is
a better neighbor than ono who drives
over one which has taxed his pa
thence and injured his horses.

LONDON.-The development COM
missloners are preparing to recon-
mend to the treasury that grants be
made to the provisional committee
of the National Poultry institute to
the amount of $500 toward the es-
tablishment and equipment of an in
stitute for poultry farming; they have
also advised that $4,000 a year should
be granted toward the upkeep of the
institute. The provisional committees
scheme provides for the requirement
OF farm of at least so acres in a
suitable district. Buildings will be
erected for teaching and experimental
work, and there will also be lecture
and class rooms, with various labora-
tories. These will cost something
approaching $1,000.

DR.. Delbrueck expressed equal con-
Germ about the fate Of the German
steel trust, which terminate 1T the
end of June unless previously re-
newed.
Whether the state itself shall be-
como . member Of syndicates, said
the minister. was . question which
could not be answered in general
terms as a matter of principle, but
only according to tho circumstances
involved in each individual case.
Under some circumstances It becomes
the duty Of the state to Join = syndi-
portant business and political ends in
limo with its general interests. In
some cases trade combinations grow
into monopoliea. and private monopo-
lies, said the minister. can under
some circumstances b more danger.
QUA than q state monopoly; this IL
specially the case. he said. in q con-
additionally governed country, where
tho parliament IL in q position at any
time to exercise its control over the
administration Of such mcnopolies.
DR.. Delbrueck again rejected the
idea OF having a general law passed
for the regulation Of syndicates. He
also expressed his personal conviction
that the German government would
be compelled under certain circum-
stances to convert private monopoliss
into state monopolies. Referring.
however, to the potash law. passed
in 1910, DIR. Dslbrueck admitted that
it had not fulfilled his expectations:
but he hoped that the experience
gained by this law would cause other
syndicates to do everything possible
to make legislative interference with
them unnecessary.
The turnover Of the postoffice bank
ing business in Germany last year
amounted to $5,sso,o0o,O 900, or SO per
cent more than for 1910. The num-
Der OF persons and firms holding open
accounts with the postoff1ce has risen
to 62.460, there having been a gain OF
II per cent in two years. About three
fourths of the account-holders are
business firms and companies. The
chief purpose in view when this sys-
tenn was established experimentally
three years ago was to facilitate pay
ments of small sums at distance
with less trouble to senders and to
postofficS officials than through the
customary money order system. The
extensive use of these accounts for
this purpose is clearly evident from
the large number of entries on them;
the average in 1911 was 1925 entries
on each account. At the end of De-
cember the amount of deposits ON
them showed an aggregate OF 3s3,-
100000, which was more than twice
the total Of two years ago. The gov

to pass q bill to establish the de-
partment of postoffice banking on a

DR.. Delbrueck. the secretary Of the

defense of trade combinations in the
reichstag in a speech. He said that
trade combinations syndicates, as
trade combinations are usually called
in Germany, are necessity and in

the newspapers and university theor-
lists being still engaged in the polemic
over its causes.
Prof. Julius Wolf, professor Of po-
litical economy 1t the University Of
Breslau. and one Of the leading Ger
man authorities on this subject, be-
lisves that the investigation will do
little to alleviate the high prices,
either in the United States or Ger
many, as the C Uses are most GER
tainly not political and lie deeper in
natural causes over which govern
ments have little or no control.
While politicians in the United
States are ascribing dear food to the
trusts or the tariff and German par
liamentarians find Its causes in the
import taxes on agricultural products,
the financial reform or the absence of
tha socialistic state. Prof. Wolf points
out that comparison students in the
United States, England, France and
Germany generally attribute it to the
increased production of gold and the
supplementary increase In the cir
culating medium involved in the
growing employment Of checks az a
substitute for actual coin.
Prof. Wolf believes, however. that
while this IL q contributary cause,
the primary and irremedfable cause ID

possibilities of food production. The
increase in tho value of good arabic
land in America as the available vir-
gin soil IL exhausted naturally entails
an increase in, the cost Of food pro-
lduction; the increased demand from
the growing population also forces
prices steadily upward. And, while

ton makes each extra bushel
moro costly than the one before.
From the workings Of these laws. says
Prof. Wolf. there is no escape and
President Taft's International investi-
cation may ascertain causes but can
not prevent inevitable developments
The investigation will justify its be-
ing. however, merely in speeding sci
entiflc knowledge of causes Of food
prices and in putting an end to I'M
scientific theories on which quack
remedies for the growing evil are
based.
For Europe. so Prof. Wolf points
out, the effect of these natural laws
has for a long time been stayed by
the steady sinking Of the cost of ocean
transportation from the great gran
cries Of the new world. Now, how
ever. with only a slight margin for
further possible freight reductions
and with America entering into the
sign Of dear food, Europe has nothing
left to hope for.

April Madness

By CHARLES HANSON TOWNE

MERE is a time when the young year
Goes mad with very ecstasy;
When all the rapture of the world
Is crushed in one wild melody.
1t is the hour when April comes
With silver flute and virelay,
With magic pipe and madrigal,
And sings her happy heart away.
The bloom and wonder of the Spring
Are vocal on her golden tongue;
The soul of Music comes to earth,
And life and love, and joy are young.
Join, 0 my heart, in this Wild song;. II d
& The jocund April sets you free. lI3
