CHEAP FUEL PROMISED.
Professor Adrian Predicts New Use
For Prekly Cactus.

Professor Adrian Predicts New Use
For PrickIy Cactus.
Hope for cheaper fuel for the auto
mobile was given to users of gasoline
pleasure cars by Professor Henry A.
Adrian in lecture at Des Moines, Ia
He believes that the cacti in the
southwestern states will furnish the
fuel for the automobile in the future
Referring to the possibilities of the
great American desert, Professor
Adrian said that 400 tons of cattle
fodder, having 60 per cent the feed.
ing value of Alfalfa, can be produced
to the acre. Besides being of value
as a cattle feed it will produce sugar
of equal quality with the best cane
sugars. If there is sugar in it then
there is alcohol, and when the gaso
line trust puts the price of that arti
Gle out of reach the cars of the future
will be run by the cactus alcohol, he
said.
The cactus also produces apples
which are food possibilities.

AID THE |. W. W, HE SAYS
Conditions In California Hop Fields
Denounced by Inspector Walsh.

Washington, Feb. "a report on
the condition existing in the Califor-
mia hop fields at the time of the fatal
riot at Wheatlands was made public
by Chairman Frank P. Walsh of the
federal commission on industrial re-
lations.
The report, submitted to the com
mission by Carleton H. Parker, sec
retary of the California immigration
commission, who was engaged as a
special investigator, bitterly attacks
conditions in the hop fields, setting
forth that wages and living condi-
tions there contribute to the strength
of the Industrial Workers of the
World "and their revolutionary doc
trines."
Chairman Walsh announced that a
searching examination Of sanitation
and wages in camps of migratory Ia
borers will be made by the commits
sion to find out if conditions disclosed
in the hop fields exist to any extent
in other places.

A SIGN OF THE
TIMES

"A Case Plainly Stated that clear and
convincing Single Tax argument was
originally delivered as an address before
the Knights of Labor, by Henry F. Ring
at Houston, Texas, Is years ago. On
the following day the Houston Post Sc
verely censured Mr.. Ring for such a
brazen avowal of faith" in the teach
ings of so dangerous man" as Henry
George Recently this same Houston
Post, under the same ownership and ed
itorial management, speaking of the
Houston plan of taxation said:
This system is but the entering
wedge OF the Henry George system
Of taxation of land values, known as
the Single Tax plan of raising rev.
enue for the support of the govern
ment, and of giving to each individ-
ual his righttul participation IN nat
ure's free gift to humanity-not to
one generation, but to all genera
tions-of land, air and water, with
out which it is claimed there can be
no equality of opportunity. There
is too much land monopoly in Texas
hence with the unearned increment
evidenced by the rising values of un-
improved land appropriated by those
who hold title to it, there is grow
ing dissatisfaction with the states
policy of land taxation"
This is but one example of growing
change in public sentiment. Long years
of preaching the Gospel are beginning
to have effect.

tor Thomas P. Gore, alleging at.
tempted assault in a Washington ho-
tel on March "a, 1913, opened in the
district court, and when court ad'
journed a jury had been selected and
attorneys for the defense and plain
tiff had outline their cases.
An important ruling was made by
Judge George w. Clark Immediately
following the selection of the jury
when he held that the past life OF
Mrs. Bond is not vital in this case,
and that her general reputation
would be an issue and not any spe.
cifc acts in her past life. This will
prevent the introduction of mass Of
dispositions and evidence secured by
the attorneys and detectives for Sen
ator Gore. This same ruling will ap.
ply to the past life of Senator Gore.
This ruling is considered first blood
for Mrs. Bond.

Bond, in his opening statement, read
the original petition filed last Octo-
Der. He read the brief denial filed
by Senator Gore. The proof, Lillard

husband, who was seeking an inter.
nal revenue collectorship.
What kind of looking woman Is
she?' Gore asked a friend a moment
later.
"The friend said she was beautiful
and described her in detail" Lillard
declared. He said the alleged assault

Jacobs Of Oklahoma City, in the Win

Senator Gore had gone at his own
suggestion to talk to Mrs Bond con-
cerning an appointment for her hus-
band. He said that while Mrs. Bond
attempted to pass Senator Gore, who
was sitting in rocking chair in the
room, Gore placed his left arm
around Mrs. Bond, his right hand
over her mouth, and attemnted to
throw her upon the bed, and while he
was doing so was observed by T. f.

WHY NOT GET
BUSYI

Senators Pomerene, of this state, and
Kenyon, of Iowa, have secured passage
in Senate of half million dollar approp-
ration for control and eradication of hog
cholera. The bill is now pending in
the House. Why not urge immediate
and favorable action? Congressman
should be advised of the great need of
combating the swine plague by cooper
alton of states and United States. Per-
sonal letters to Washington will help a
good cause.

JUDGMENT ON CON-
FESSION

Much Of the opposition to the Cox
bills and the Cox Legislative program
is the fruit of the methods Of the Gov
ernor. It has comparatively little
to do with the merits ofthe measures
which he supports as far as the feel
ing of many good citizen goes.
If the Cox bills were much nearer
than the Governor will ever make
them they would still be opposed, in
many instances, by prudent and far
seeing citizens because of their source
and the perils which are inherent in
a state machine such as he has built
and is daily strengthening .-Cleve-
land Leader.
Driven back into their mud trenches
by the overwhelmingly successful pro-
gram of Governor Cox, which, in accord
with the Democratic State platform, he
has carried out to the letter, the Repub-
lican press, having no bullets is driven
to the expedient of firing blank cart
ridges. The volleys make noise but do
no injury.
And pray, why all this commotion2
The above comment from one of the bit
terest Republican sheets in Ohio amounts
to a confession of the merits of the work
Of the General Assembly, ably urged by
the Governor, and the cry Cox Machine
is a species OF unreason common to those
who under no circumstances intend to be
fair.
lanes NJ. Cox is not in the machine
business. He is strong, forceful and in
telligent to the needs of this great state.
BY reason of these extraordinary ele-
ments centering in the chief executive,
the prominence of himself and the per-
manent good of his state have been
achieved but not at the cost of the peo-
ple's rights and the respect of we'll
meaning men and of himself.
WOIfish hOwIe of a little rem
nant of the late state Republican
machine, will not avail. Consider
the record of its bank-wreckers
and convicted ex-Ofi1ciaIS, now
serving time in the penItentiary
or facing trial for corruption. No
greater curse than that machine
ever disgraced Ohio. BY the grace
of God, ii has been the high priv
iIege of Governor Cox to route
this band of IOOters and In its
place to establish a government
based on honesty and sound busI-
ness Principles.-Cincinnati Record.

how to use dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
