Denature Condemned Prod

Livestock
is THE SUGGESTION
OF GOVT. EXPERTS
Considerable Saving in Cost
of Raising Beef and Pork
Could Be Made

Washington, D. c., May i9.-With the
approach of summer when large quanti-
ties of milk are condemned and destroyed
in the cities throughout the country, the
United States agricultural department
to-day issued an appeal to health in
spectors TO stop the waste and after de-
maturing the condemned product to re-
turn it to the farms to be fed to live
stock.
BY this method the departments ex-
perts are convinced that considerable
saving could be made in the cost of rails
ing beef and pork. The department ad-
vocates the use of rennet which will
transform condemned milk into thick
ourds.
In connection with the appeal the de-
psrtment gives the results of expert

PLACE FOR JAPANESE
Is in Asia, Where There Is Room Enough
for Them.

London MAY l9.-The Times prints q
three-column article by Sir Valentine
Chirol, the ex-foreign editor Of The
Times, dealing with the dispute between
the United States and Japan. The writ
er analyzes the grounds on which Jap
an claims equality of treatment with
western nations and expresses the belief
that the situation created thereby is
more dangerous than it was on any pre-
yious occasion. The Times, commenting
editorially on this statement, says:
''The ultimate point in the dispute
does not affect America alone but is
essentially world question. There
should be plenty Of room for the sur
plus millions OF Japan and China in
the mdeveloped Asatic territories for
many decades to come.
But California offers a quicker path
way to affluence for the ambitious Ash
atics; therefore the fears Of the Califor-
mans, thought to be exaggerated and
premature, are not entirely gronndless,
and no useful purpose would be served
by blind condemnation of the tendencies
Of the public opinion in the western
states.
"Whatever may be the issue of the
present dispute, it is question of mag
nitude for the white races in the future
Until the situation becomes more
strained, we prefer to believe that some
middle course of settlement will be
found
while Japan is fully warranted in
standing upon her treaty rights, she will
do well to remember that a claim to

SAYING THE FORESTS

The board of agriculture and forestry, which
was given the proceeds from water licenses by
act of the last legislature, is beginning more
systematic campaign for the preservation of Ha-
waiian forests from the attack of grazing ami
mails. In this connection, it is worthy of note
that experience on the mainland shows that de-
nuded forests can be restored by intelligent con-
servation work.
The improved condition of the national forest
range after regulated grazing is pointed to by
experts of the department of agriculture as q
demonstration that areas which have been severe
ly damaged through overstocking by sheep and
cattle can be brought back to their former carry
ing power through system of sufficiently intel
ligent use.
When the government took charge of the live
stock ranges within the national forests some Of
them were SO badly oyergrazed and otherwise in
jured from reckless handling of the stock that
their grazing value appeared to have been almost
entirely destroyed Many of these ranges, how
ever, have been restored and made as valuable as
ever. On several of the forests results have more
than justified the expectations and the range is
in better condition than it ever was.
An example of this Improvement is cited in
the Nebo national forest, Utah. In 1908, when
that forest was created, the ranges within the
forest boundaries were found to be badly over
grazed and trampled because there was lack Of
any control or supervision over the areas. One
of the areas was at that time estimated to be
capable of carrying only 5000 head of cattle
Now, through conservative management and ju-
dicious distribution of the cattle over the ranges
and improvements in water conditions the car
rying capacity of the range has been increased
until, in the present grazing season, nearly 5000
head of cattle using this particular area, and
forest officers feel that few hundred head more
can be safely grazed there without injury.

Of non -paftisanship in local government which
does not of course, disqualify him from Demo-

Professor Bryan, he informs the Star-Bulle-

his grasp of the Notwithstanding duties
pertaining to the governorship, the community
is entirely at loss. He has blown no trumpets
in his personal nd,modest campaign for the of
flee, nor have tRImpets been blown for him.
1t is probable that had Professor Bryan's as
pirations for the goEernorship been locally an
nounced, he would have received considerable
non partisan backing here on account of many
admirable personal qualities and the belief that
he is of type that commands respect in office.
Under the present conditions, he can hardly be
regarded as likely to be the choice of President
Wilson, if reports direct frcm Washington are at
all near the truth. Watson seems to be Wilson's
choice provided his health remains good.
Undoubtedly Professor Bryan was actuated
by motives of modesty and reticence in applying
for the goyernorship without making public an
nouncement of his Intentions, but his course has
hardly been fair to Hawaii. We believe that a
seeker after office of such deep Importance 30 all

HOW THE DEMOCRATS MAY GET RID OF THE
LOBBYISTS

Democratic party tactics in handling tariff
legislation are sharply criticised by the Saturday
Evening Post, which. takes a commonsense view
of things generally in its editorial discussion
The Post comes to the conclusion that the per
manent tariff commission plan is the only scien
tific and really effective way in which to handle
such legislation. Says the Post in the latest is
sue:
II should not be forgotten, by the way that the
Democratic party deliberately invited the numerous
powerful nsdious' tariff lobby, of which Presi-
dent Wilson complained not lsng Not even tri-
umphant Democracy egslate in vacuum
To form intelligent opinion to what duties
should be levied cotton, for example, something
be known about conditions in the cotton trade;
and the only way that information be obtained is
to inquire among persons familiar with the trade.
Naturally a majority of persons most familiar with
the trade interested in having duties as high as
possible They swarm to Washington in order to in
struct uniformed legislators.
The only possible alternative to numerous and
insidous lobby is permanent non-partisan tariff
commission which will collect through its own ex-
perts the technical information that congress must
have. With. such commission there would be no %.
cuse for lobby Witout it a lobby is not only ex-
tusabe but inevitable. great quantity of expert
technical knowledge lie necessary for the framing of
any tariff bill that recognizes the protective principle,
as the Underwood bill frankly does
When the government has independent commits
sion to acquire this knowledge interested manufac-
turers will volunteer it. So long as there Is protect
i've tariff legislation without tariff commission there
will be tariff lobby.
Incidentally, the Post comedies with what
President Taft has repeatedly urged and what
Republican leaders are urging. The present hap
hazard plan of schedule-making is without rhyme
or reason, and is being damned through iwithout
reference to justice for the industries built Ut
by American brain and Drawn.
