be? Will you allow Nature to do her
work in her own way and without any

Bob White is Unlike Most Other Birds.
The bulletin on the study OF the bob
white by the biological survey of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture covers many pages, and lack OF
space foSbids US to quote therefrom;
but suffice it to say that the services
of the quail, whether in the kinds and
number of insects destroyed, or in the
amount and kinds of noxions weed
seeds destroyed, place them emf
nently above all other birds. In the
gathering of these insects and seeds,
too, he Is unlike most other birds, for
he works far infield and not along the
edges of the forest, orchard, thiciSet or
,ledge-row.
While the law does not yet protect
the quail, every farmer can protect all
OF the birds in his particular COM
nunity if he will join the other farm
ers IN agreeing not to allow any hunt
ing.
1 believe that the farmers as class
are all opposed to the whole hunting
scheme, and the sooner that an end is
put to it, in a settled community at
least, the safer will they feel.

Again the hunting season is at hand
Every day farmers will be asked for
permits to allow the shooting Of quail
or other game upon their farms The
majority of them, no dIubt, recognize
the benefit that they derive from hav-
ing the quail on their land.
The quail is far too valuable a bird
20 be thus slaughtered in the name of
sport; but where is the so-ealled
sport" in the killing of any creature
anyhow? They are not needed for
food. for less money than the cost of
powder and shot would procure a
greater amount of meat" at the mar
ket; and what benefits or reward does
the farmer receive from the hunters?
Does he receive a quail or two, or any
pecuniary reward? We doubt very
much whether many farmers in the
North receive any rewards, and some
of them have the work of repairing
their fences afterward. Then, too, in
the North at least, there are too few
quail anyhow, for the severe winters
tend to decimate the hocks, so that
there are but a fraction Of their num-
bers to the square mile that there
should be; and on account Of this the
farmer, the one who suffers from de-
structive insects, is compelled to buy
more poisons for sprays as the years
go by if he wishes to save his crops
from the ravages of the worms. A
farmer will buy Paris green and spray
his potatoes, which means his own
time added thereto, whereas, if he had
a few quail, they would do the work
far better and with less loss of vines.

OIL PROSPECTS
FOUND In STATE

Pierre. May 13.-The "oil idea" is
growing one in this state. The Pot
ter county boosters say that they are
practically cleared up on their lease
and that the indianapolis people who
are back of their plan notified them
that they viii be on the ground with
their drilling rig as soon as the leases
are secured. The proposition here is
working along. and it is expected that
the required leases will be signed
up within short time now and
everything in shape for the Pittsburg
men who are asking the leases here
to get to work.
Down at Murdo in Lyman county
they claim an increasing supply of oil
with the artesian water in the well
being sunk at that place, the oil sup
ply increasing as the well goes deeper.
and they have stirred considerable
excitement in that section. At Ar
down in the southwest corner of the
state company OF South Dakota,
Nebraska and Wyoming have formed
million dollar company to get down
to the base of alleged oil sepage at
several places in that part of the
state, and the activities of all these
projects will more than likely settle
the question of the existence or lack
of existence of an oil field in this
state. Several years ago a promoter
from the Illinois oil section was here
and looking oyer the field said that If
an oil field was not developed at some
time in this state, it would be the

REPUBLICANS CON-
FERENCE HELD

Chicago, May 12.-That reuniting
of the progressive party with the re-
publican party is not only desired but
Is being actively sought was the gist
of sentiment expressed at the close
here today of two days conference
at which republican leaders outlined
plans for reorganizing the party.
Herbert S. Hadley, former COVER
nor of Missouri, who with Senators
Albert L. Cummings of Iowa. VIM. +.
Borah OF Idaho and L. Y. Sherman of
Illinois. led in the discussion at the
conference, said afterwards that the
desire to have those bach in the party
who left it to join the progressive
party ''was manifest"
The coalition. he added, was not to
be effected bv any mechanical SCH
eme such as the adoption of resolu-
tions by any of the leaders. but rath
or by remedying of tho causes in
the republican party which resulted
in the separation. The conference,
attended by six senators, numerous
members of the house of Representa-
tiyes and leaders from states as far
distant as Massachusetts and Califor-
mia resulted in the issuance of a state
ment. The statement expressed the
belief that the republican national
committee should call a republican
national convention at as early date
as possible to effect radical changes
in party affairs and especially in ref
erence to the conduct of future ma
tional conventions.

DELAY NEEDED TO
IRON OUT KINKS

Washington, May 12th.--President
Wilson believes that negotiation be-
tween Japan and the United States
oyer the alien land legislation in Cal
itornia are not in an alarming stage
but that the interchange of views thus
far has been along frank and friendly
lines calculated to remove the appear
ance of discrimination against Japar
ese subjects.
The president, discussing the sub
iect informally today, took the posi-
tion that the Webb bill could not vi
olate the treaties between Japan and
the United States. He intimated that
Japan's protest was not founded on a
claim that the treaty would be broken
in any way but upon the feeling that
there was an effort to discriminate
against japan on the ground of their
alleged ineligibility TO citizenship.
The president revealed that the
question of naturalization had not yet
entered the discussion with the Jap
anese ambassador. but that of course
underlying the bill was realized that
the federal court had not finally pass
ed upon the question of eligibility.
1t was upon the basis that Japanese
were not accorded the privileges of
citizenship that the appearance of dis
elimination written in the bill had
arisen and it was intimated at the
white house that for the present the
hope was that the legislation in Cali
fornia would either be vetoed by Gov
ernor Johnson or delayad by refer
endum to permit smoothing some fea-
lures of the situation.
President Wilson. endeavored to
make it plain that the greatest frank
ness had prevailed between the two
governments even to the abandon
ment of many diplomatic formalties.
The conference thus far between Sec
retary Bryan or President Wilson and
the Japanese ambassador was describ-
ed as being those of lone gentleman
to another"
Intimations that the Japanese pro-
test itself was couched neither in vic
orous nor aggressive language but was
formal and friendly in character came
from the president himself, during his
talk today and it was pointed out
that the phrase "a very earnest pre-
test" employed by Secretary Bryan
in his message to Governor john
son was the description of the note
which the American government had
entertained rather than the emphasis
of the Japanese ambassador.
The president was disposed TO talk
freely on the subject and appeared
confident that the satisfactory adjust
ment would be accomplished.
