ELIHU ROOT MAY COME.


Former War Secretary Invited to
Kansas University.
The Hon. Elihu Root, ex-secretary
of war, is among the possibilities be-
ing considered for this years COM
mencement address at the university.
The committee on speakers is max
ing q strong effort to secure the ex-
secretary as one Of the biggest men
on the list Of available speakers.
However. there is some uncertainty as
to Mr.. Roots coming. since COM
mencement season is one OF the times
during the year when the committee
finds the orators of the country with
date lists pretty well filled. However,
Prof. D. c. Croissant, who is in
charge Of the engagement OF the COM
mencement speaker, has written to
Mr.. Root, inviting him to visit the
university next June. AS yet. no re-
ply has been received. and the COM
mittee is at present awaiting develop
ments.
In case the ex-secretary does not
accept the committees invitation.
there is another man in sight who
would be very popular with q Law
renee audience. Dean Brown, head
of the theological school Of Yale uni
versity, may be engaged to deliver
the commencement address. Dean
Brown spoke in the university chapel
on Oct. %, 1913, and his speech is
remembered an one of the best that
has been delivered on Mount Dread
during this school year.

Huge Crops of Alfalfa.
Kingman, Feb. 1.-THE owners Of
the old mill race and the land ada
cent are planning to prepare the
ground and plant 1t in alfalfa this
season, and are intending to irrigate
the lands with water from the race.
As the race Is considerably more ele-
waited, or much above the level Of
most Of the land abutting upon the
race. it will be q very easy matter to
utilize the water by means Of frequent
openings along the race that the wa
ter may escape by force Of gravitation
and run onto and across the alfalfa
field. as there is a gradual slope lead
ing to the Ninnescah river bank. and
all portions Of the field can be sup
Piled with the overflow and seepage
from the race. This will insure plen-
ty Of moisture during the driest sea-
sons and will thus insure q splendid
growth OF alfalfa And the beauty Of
this irrigating plant is that 1t will re-
quire no extra outlay for pipes or
drain tile. and will IL .ure q steady
supply Of water with but slight ex-
pense, for the natural wear and tear
and upkeep of the race banks.

''The police blotter at the station

breakers names~on it for every day

always getting drunk and causing

James Hamilton, Sheriff Cruse's
right hand man, told me the day after
his house was burned down, a fire of
unknown origin, that for every nail
in that house he would break the
head of a striker.
THE Waddell-Mahon men and
deputies who took part in the muir
der at Painesdale are still walking,
the streets of the city of Houghton
and are still in the employ of the
company. They were released on
$4,000 bonds each and are still car
rying guns.
THE records will show that every
WaddeIl-Mahon who has caused Sc
rious trouble since the strike began
has been spirited out of the county
so that they cannot be punished for
their crimes. -

when President Charles H. Meyer of
