OF Arabia, Professor Oberhummer re-
ports that the country is Of about the
same character and formation as
northern Africa. 1t is rumored that
BedCuin tribes in a quick dash have
crossed this desert, but there is no
record of their having done so. Pro
fessor Musil. an Austrian explorer, has
made several expeditions into this
country He disguised himself as a
Redouin and lived among the tribes.
DR.. MusiI discovered in the country
east of Palestine the ruins OF castles
and palaces which date from the earli-
est Mohammedan times. There seems,
however, to be no reason for believing
that the desert was once fertile
country. A few scientists believe that
the climate of this country mas chang
ed within historic times. but all re-
search has tended to disprove this.

Kentucky Crop Report.

The splendid prospects fol-
good crops as reported on June
10th, have been greatly lessened
owing to the severe drouth
throughout the State. In some
places local showers have been
reported and crops in these To-
calities are looking in splendid
condition. Central and Western
Kentucky seems to be suffering
more from the dry and hot
weather prevailing. The condi-
ton of wheat shows 90%, which
is an increase over last months
report of 5 per cent. Wheat is
reported as not yielding go many
bushels per acre, but the quality
is extra good. TIE condition of

Tobacco shows an acreage of GA

ports 80 per cent acreage and 70

is the acreage of potatoes; the

LIST. The sweet potato acreage is
93 per cent, while the condition
is 80 per cent. Bluegrass seed
crop will be exceedingly short
this year, and owing to the con-
tinued drouth pasture conditions
generally are short. The condi-
ton of grasses is given as follows:
Bluegrass "a per cent, Clover IS

Judge Benton writes us a let.
ter defending the action of the
Court and the jury trying the
murdererers of Marshal A. Il. Pet.
tit. 1t is complete review OF
the trial and we trust every read.
er of the Times will carefully Pc
ruse this explanation of Judge
Benton which we publish in full
in this issue. Judge Benton evil
IDENTIFY has done what he thought
best to bring about speedy and
fair trial of these negroes.
Marshal A. T. Petit, standing
on the publichighway without fir
ing a shot, was foully murdered
bv a band of drunken negroes,
and after this murder his head
was brutality beat into a jelly, ev-
identity through the use of an old
railroad tie which the writer saw
after the murder with the blood
still on the end of the tie. If
there was ever a case in which e.
lectrocution was deserved, it was
in this case, and if there was ev-
er case in which a speedy trial
should be given it was in this case.
Circumstances, as Judge Benton
recites, worked against the most
speedy trial, but we still see no
excuse for a life sentence in the
place of electrocution. If there
were no need for electrocution in
this case there never will he in
then let the next session
Of the Legislature repeal this law
for the benefit of negroes who
murder mountain police. No
amount of argument from any
source can convince the people
Of Clay City that proper justice
mas been melted out to the das-
;ardly assassins of Marshal A. T. i
Petit.

YANKToN DEFEATS STATE

State Colleges championship aspira-
tons went glimmering at Yankton last
Friday, when the local team met an
unexpected defeat at the hands of
Yankton college. The score was 20
to 0.
Sheehan, the Brookings quarter, was
seriously injured in the first quarter
and Laxson, his substitute, was also
injured after he had been in the game
but a short time. Carl Johnson, one
OF the strongest men in the line, was
laid out In the first half, and these
accidents no doubt had something to
do with the poor showing of the home
team.
This victory gives Yankton the state
collegiate championship and they also
claim the championship of North Da-
kota. Brookings can only wait for
another and we hope a better year.
Yankton's victory evened up the
score between the two colleges, each
having won four games since they be-
gan their football battles. The list is
as follows:
1901-State II; Yankton o; at
Brookings.
1907-State IL; Yankton 10; at
Yankton.
190s-Yankton 81: State 0; at
Brookings.
19e9-Yankton IA; State 12, at
Yankton.
1s1o-state IL; Yankton o; at
Brookings.
1s11-Yankton 80; State 0; at
Yankton.
1912-State g.; Yankton 8; at
Brookings.
1913-Yankton 20; State O; at
Yankton.
With the close of the football season
today the annual argument over the
allstate team starts. The State Col
lege has a number of men who are
likely to be picked b. most critics, and
one or two OF the local players were
easily the class of the state in their
positions. Miller at end, Johnson at
tackle, Abbott at center and Sheehan
and Caldwell in the backfeld are the
most likely local candidates for the
all-state.

A MISLEADING REPORT

The first report of W. u. Johnston,

alike to the job printers of the state
and to the taxpayers. The Argus
Leader feels that it can comment with
out danger of being misunderstood for

Leader has never bid on a penny's
worth OF work for the state, and 1t
makes no difference TO this newspaper
how strong the commission gets, but
II does really seem that when the AK
payers pay their perfectly good money
for the publication Of an official report
that IL ought TO be truthful and fair.
This report is not For instance, 1t
gives various items OF the saving made
70 the taxpayers on the printing for
the tax commission. Everybody
knows that the tax commission was
not In business last year. II was Great
ed by the last legislature and was
appointed this spring. Still the report
tells how $3.50 was saved" on $500
pamphlets for the tax commission in
1913 as compared with what the tax
commission paid in 1912, when there
was no tar commission! The same
sort OF showing La made for the print

exist last year but which according to
this report had much printing don

new price Is only SO. 1t happens to
be true. though the report does not
mention the fact, that the extortionate
price charged the state In 1912 was
made by Mr.. Johnson himself who
now boasts OF how much he has saved
the state over what he charged them
himself last year!

instance, one job printer bid SIG for
1000 printed postals. Every child
knows that 1000 postals imprinted
cost $4,000 at the postoffice, and that
no one car buy them any cheaper. The
bid was of course intended to be SIG
per 1000. But the commission tried
to take advantage Of the manifest error
and to graft off of the printer a certain
per cent of his deposit. In another
case a job printer bid s25 for 1000
printed stamped envelopes. These
envelopes cost at the postoffice s42, as
everybody knows. The bid was in
tended to read s25 per 1000, but the
state commission sought to save"
money for the state by ~defrauding the
poor printer. In another case a
printer bid s1.S9 for 400 volumes of a
certain report. The bid was accepted
and an attempt was made to graft a
part OF his deposit. This was just a
bit too strong, however, and we under
stand the commission hasn't the gall
to try to steal from the printer a por-
ton of his deposit for his bid which
was meant to read $1.S9 per volume.
Certainly IL S1.S9 was his total bid his
depsit should have been in proportion
and the state at the best could only
take from him 10 cents.
Haven't the people a right to ask
that the truth be told at least in the
reports Sioux Falls Argus
