fHerald- Republican, Salt Lake.l
Idaho and Utah have made a great
err increase in placing additional land
under cultivation and the sowing of
crops the present year than at any
time since the irrigated land boom OF
Idaho. Sugar beets, wheat, forage
grasses and seeds lead the list in the
increased acreage devoted to farming
and in the eastern part of Idaho
greater acreage of potatoes is being
planted. The Utah farmers have in
creased their potato acreage hut little,
although there is a greater demand for
the Utah potato than for the idaho no-
tato since the soil conditions IN this
state are such that tabers do not alb
sorb so much water as In Idaho.
The Utah Idaho Sugar company es-
Inmates the increase IN sugar beet
lands at 20.00n acres over the acreage
devoted to this purpose. in 1915. The
greatest increase in this acreage has
been in Salt Lake county. Box Elder
county and in southern Utah county.
There has been but little increase in
the sugar beet acreage In Idaho which,
however, takes first place in the in
termouEtain country in regard TO the
increase in the = reage devoted TO
wheat II is estimated by the rail
roads tast the wheat acreage of Idaho
has increased moro than 5000 acres
this year, while the increase In wheat
acreage In Utah amounts to less than
5000 acres. Idaho also leads in the
number of acres devoted 10 the grow
ing and raising Of seeds to be sent to
the eastern seed houses. IL Is estimat
ed that ut least 10000 acres Of irri-
gated land is being devoted to this pnr-
pose this year, while the acreage de
voted to potatoes in Idaho is estimated
I at more than $1,000 acres.
The only increase in potato lands in
Utah is in the Cache valley where a
number of farmers are experimenting
With special brands and grades Of po-
itatoes. The market demand for Utah
potatoes Is increasing every year and
/ the Cache valley potato is said to be
the best raised in the state.

Idaho and the northwest may soon
see a Transformation OF what has until
recently been regarded as a waste pro-
duct into big dividend paying invest
ments. The government has with
drawn from reclamation great
stretch of territory along the south
fork Of the Snake In Bonneville county
on account Of the power sites.
Southeastern Idaho, from all ac-
counts, is to become the great field for
the development OF phosphate as a fer
tilizer, freeing this country from the
necessity Of exporting that product at
a high cost. Experiments are being
conducted to convert sagebrush into
nitrates and other valuable chemicals
and an eastern manufacturing firm is
trying to convert iackrahbit fur into d
commercial product, The greatest OF
these, however, is the opportunity tc
convert the shale rock of Idaho and
the northwest into gasoline and &c
compete with the great John d. and
the Standard oil company.

GOOD READING FOR JULY a..

The time is near at hand which must
probably determine whether Americans
are to be freemen or slaves: whether
they are to have any property they can
call their own; whether their houses
are to be pillaged and destroyed and
themselves consigned to a state Of
wretchedness from which no human
effort will deliver them. The fate Of
unborn millions will now depend, un-
der God, on the courage and conduct
Of this army. Our enemy leaves US
only the choice Of brave resistance or
the most abject submission. We have
therefore, to resolve to conquer or die
Our own, our cOuntry'S honor. calls
upon us for a vigorous and manly ex-
ertion, and If we now shamefully fail
we shall become infamous before the
whole world. Let us, then, rely on the
goodness Of our cause and the aid Of
the Supreme Being, III whose hands
victory is, to animate and encourage
us to great and noble actions. The eyes
of all our countrymen are now upon
us, and we shall have their blessings
and praises. if happily we are the in
struments Of saving them from the
tyranny meditated against them.-From

Before the Battle Of Long Island.

a dozen earlier publications, Jefferson
replied with perfect wisdom and fair
ness, II did not consider it as any part
Of my charge to invent new ideas alto
gether and to offer no sentiment which
had been expressed before"
It is this fact that has led some his
torians to allege that Thomas Paine
may have had hand in the writing Of
the Declaration Of Independence, for
without doubt there were expressed in
some Of his previous writings ideas Of
liberty and justice that Of necessity
animated many Of the sentiments EN-.
bodied in the document as written by
Jefferson. But there seems to be no
adequate foundation for the truth Of
the statement that Paine had any d.
rect hand in its framing.
The original draft in Jefferson's hand
writing is now in the state depart
ment at Washington. It shows altera-
tions interlined in the handwriting Of
Franklin and Adams.

VIC 1dAus
Thus commissioned with q blessing,
fated with divine command,
Came the bell across the ocean, her.
aid of prophetic word
As St. John among the nations,
preaching Of the coming Lord.
Der domain of nascent heroes swung
the bell Of destiny,
Undelivered of its message, unpro-
claimed mans liberty
Till one lovely July morning, sud.
den DER the startled earth,
Burst a peal of merry music telling
of a nations birth
Peal on peal, a proclamation; twas
the message Of the bell!
And the happy birthday Ginning
tolled tyrant's passing knell.
From the stellar robes of morning
freedom tore a standard grand
Planted firm the flaming ensign,
aegis over bell and land.
From his eyrie in the heavens
sprang the eagle, poised for
flight,
Then descending, as q star falls,
perched upon the symbol bright.
Round that bell and flag and eagle
freedom gathered from that
hour,
While the banner grows still
brighter, still more wide the
eagles power.
Now, alas, the bell is silent, hushed
its voice in ceaseless rest;
Broken in the line Of duty, with its
message on its breast.
Yet q woodland goddess, waking,
caught the bells first glad ac-
claim,
To be treasured, ever sacred. till the
fairy learns her name.
Echo then repeats the message, all
the music gives again,
Fills the earth and air and heaven
with the birthdays glad re.
frain.
Listen! Listen! Rhythmic music !!
Melody is in the air,
Family distant, now it's nearer,
now floats round us ev'ry-
where
In the hearts of all the people, over
hilltop, wood and dell,
Echo makes the proclamation, hal
lowed lyric of the bell;
Preaching still that declaration in
that voice divinely grand:
freedom ever to the people, liberty
throughout the land"

ROOSEVELT LEADS, WE FOL
LOW.

The Twin City Star, which has been
considered as the leading Negro
newspaper of the Progressive Party,
and an enthusiastic supporter of
COL Theodore Roosevelt and his
policies, continues to follow his lead.
We heartily accept the advice of
Americas greatest citizen, and will
support the regular presidential nom-
inee of the Republican National Con-
vention, Hon. Chas. E. Hughes, and
do what we can for the success of the
Republican ticket. We are not in
accord with the entire platform of the
party. The suffrage question, as a
States Rights measure, will not give
the Negro women of the South a
right to vote. We are against any
program giving State a right to
override the Constitution. We had
hoped to see some plank in it's plat
form recommending legislation to
make 'Lynching a Federal Crime"
We cannot get our constitutional
rights under State Sovereignty, end
must rely on Federal legislation and
enforcement for our protection. The
Republican party has done more for
us than any other party and we must
overcome it's evils with its good; still
contending for right and protesting
against wrong-believing in Divine
Providence and thankful that Col
Roosevelt has accomplished his ulti-
mate purpose, which was also his
prophecy-that he would drive out of
the Republican party, those who cor
rupted the principles of the party
We regret the loss of a friend, of
cur race on the Supreme Bench. by
the resignation of Justice Hughes
which gave Pres. Wilson an oppor-
tunity to appoint Democrat-and
fate may decree that by his appoint
ment we may have a. Justice White
or Justice Harlan. Though Demo-
Gratis they were honest interpreters
of the law and spirit of the Consti-
tuition. 1t is up to the Negro to be
loyal to himself and the door of hope
will soon open to him. We have
awaited orders and willingly obey the
requests of Col. Roosevelt, who led
us into the Progressive Party in 1912,
and we return to the Republican
ranks under the same leadership and
convictions. Let the slogan be
Hughes and Fairbanks must win"
and now that the Progressives have
accomplished their purpose, we ex-
pect large following, and a return
to the Grand Old Party, for its Sue
cess in November next.
