Arizona Takes the Lead

Arizona's crops for 1913 are sixteen per cent better than the average, according to a report just issued by the department of agriculture.
 This is the second year that Arizona has led all the states. Last year the Arizona crop yield was 1889 per cent of the aver age.
 The average yield of state is based on returns for a number of years. Increased acreage does not figure in this computation. The report of the department shows that Arizona farmers are increasing their production, talk ing area of titled land into con- sideration, faster than the farm CTS of any other state.
 In 1912 the crop yield of the United States was only about eighty per cent of the average and in 1913 was approximately ninety per cent. In these two bad years Arizizona has forged steadily ahead. Democrat.

Well Known in Nashville

Little Rock Ark, January 3.-In the
absence of Governor-elect Joseph 7.
Robinson, who is on a hunting trip and
removed from means of quick COM
munication, no authoritative statement
was available tonight as to the method
which will be pursued in the selection
of a successor to the late United
States Senator jeff Davis for the term
beginning March 4, next 1t is pointed
out, however, that the legislature is
required to elect an United States sem
ator when it convenes January IA and
the opinion is expressed by political
leaders here that the selection will be
made without the formality of calling
a special democratic primary to name
a party nominee.
Friends of Mr.. Robinson declare they
have assurances that he will be named
without opposition should he agree to
retire from the governorship. Others
who have been named as possible con-
testants include Governor George w.

Congressman stephen Brundidge, whom

that the council was requested, in a
petition signed by more adult members
of the Usage tribe than voted for the
council when it was elected to grant
this favorable lease, it refused to exec
ute the lease. 1t would have given the
Indians for their oil land rights roy
atty rs percent higher than any pre-
viously paid and in addition cash
bonus of $4,000.
Recent investigation of affairs at the
Usage Indian agency, says the Secre-
tary, revealed evidence of a conspiracy
on the part of applicants for oil leases,
which shows that the members of this
conspiracy have exerted undue influence
over members of the council 1t was
learned, he adds, that interest in some
of the four leases had been given to
members of the Usage tribe, inter- mar
ried citizens of the tribe. attorneys and
others. The report shows that the
council was under the domination of
these influences surrounding its men,
bers and that the action to be taken
at council meetings and the resolutions
to be passed by ii with reference to
other leases, were fixed in advance at
meetings in offices in Pawhuska or
persons having secret interests in some
of the four leases
Last June the Secretary declined to
approve the leases of the Uncle Sam
Oil company and the three individuals
who were seeking the 100000 acres.
Bacon Rind and Henry Red Eagle,
principal and assistant chiefs respec-
lively of the Usage tribe, who were de-
clared removed from the offices some
time ago by Secretary Fisher, claim
that he had no authority for such ac-
tion In their cases. However. their
offices were ordered filed by the new
election ordered today.

Well Known in Nashville

Nashville, Tenn, January 3.-Senator
Jeff Davis of Arkansas. who died early
today at Little Rock, Ark, was known
in Nashville well, having attended the
Vanderbilt law school here almost 30
years ago.N
Davis attempted to take the two-year
course in one, an arduous task but one
at that time permissible.
The student did not get his degree
and was much disappointed as conse-
quence. Nothing was thought of the
matter at the university for years until
one day the mail of Dean Thomas I'll.
Malone brought missive from Mr..
Davis with clipping attached and
containing picture announcing his
election as governor of Arkansas. The
note said in substance:

Taft Not to Nominate Goethals

Washington, January 3.-President
Taft today told Senator Brandegee,
chairman of the inter oceanic canal.
that he would not send to the Senate the
nomination of Colonel George w. Geo
thals as civil governor of the Panama
canal zone, because of the opposition
by democratic senators to his appoint
ment.
The senator told the President II
seemed impossible to have the proposed
nomination confirmed. Some democrats,
he said, made the assertion that at
the time the Panama canal act was
passed giving the President authority
to appoint civil governor and estab-
lish a new administration there was
an understanding that no immediate
changes would be made by the repub-
lican administration The President
told Senator Brandegee that he knew
of no such understanding but that he
would not allow Colonel Goethals name
to become involved in political con-
troversy 1t is probable that Mr.. Will
son will be confronted with the task of
forming the new civil government up
and settling many problems of its ad-
ministrations.

been refused the right to consult counsel
but declared. he had given specific instruc-
tions that the former Venezuelan Presi-
dert be permitted to confer with lawyer
and that he had done so.
Castro's move officials say. creates an

sion and ordered deported. No such ac-
ton, 1t is said however, has yet been
