They deny that the brutal attacks
upon British officers up the Nile and
the damage done to public property
were the work of nationalists. They
put the guilt upon bands of Bedouins

nection with the mob that broke the

natives that killed number of Ar

movement has spread SO rapidly in
Egypt because of the mistakes in
British policy here. 1t was a grave
mistake, they say, to intern Saad

CAIRO, April II by MaiD.-1
came to Cairo on my way to Amer
lea to learn something of the Jews
of Egypt and their attitude toward
Zionism, but within a few hours of
my arrival the Promised Land and
it's problems faded away.
I found myself witness to mon
ster demonstration, historic in the
checkered fortunes of the near east,
demonstration in which the Egyptians
thrust upon the United states
prominent role.
For days the atmosphere has been
tense in the streets of Cairo. From
up the Nile came reports of murder
of pilIage, of destruction OF railway
and telegraph property and news OF
military reprisals. In the capital it.
self there have been sopradis outbreaks.
Suddenly several shots would ring

to Egypt, resorted to heroic meas

The next morning the official procla-

]. L. Lewis. field manager for the Arkansas Oil and Refining Co.,. who was carried to Uuion county last week, returned Sat urday morning The charge of obtaining money under false pre- tense grew out of an operation in which some speculators down there took a number of leases for speculation and asked Mir. Lewis, who was taking leases in Ouachita county. to find them a company who would drill on the leases for a part of them. MT. Lewis found an Oklahoma con- pany who made a deal with the Union county people. but they have not drilled. nor have the Union county people turned over the acreage promised. but a smaller acreage. Mr. Lewis says he was never connected with the Oklahoma company and had m connection with the deal except to get the parties together The spectators want the leases back, as they are near a territory be- ing developed.

 That is just what the Govern. ment is offering in this Farm and Home Demonstration work.

You have doubtless taught them all you could; give them the benefit of teachers who have had a chance to learn all the many things the Govern ment has put within their reach.

Demonstration Question

Editor Spectator Please per- init space for few words from a farmer.
 The demonstration work is . matter of business like any other financial transaction in which the whole county is interested. Be- cause a few derive benefits from a certain project is no evidence that the whole people should be taxed to pay for it. Demonstra- tion work in this (McIlroy) town ship has been tried and was 8 failure. So far as l have been able to find out two-thirds of the demonstration work at least oppose the present method. We do not know of a man in this township that favors it. We would ask a few questions. viz:
 1st. How many farmers have received benefits from the work. and in what section?
 2nd. If any. what per cent of the total?
 3rd. How many lost hogs aft CT vaccination?
 What is the most important factor in development of crops? Is it good tools, good teams and rain. or is it demonstration ad- vice?
 5th. Would it not be much better and more equabiy divided. if the cost of the work was used oh the public roads. or go into the county funds so scrip would be nearer par. so those who work for the county lwould not have to work for almost nothing :?
 9th. When a county is in debt and it's scrip low in price. does not that repel. rather than draw. immigration?
 7th. Would it not be better to have demonstrator who could analyze the soil and tell us what each kind of soil is adapted to grow best (if we have a demon- strator at alb then the demon. stration work would benefit all. instead of only a few sections.
 The writer. of this is a personal friend of the present demonstra- tor, but personal friendship does not enter into this at all.
 We think that the justices of the peace at the last session of
  levying court had a perfect right to vote no, and to recall them in an extra session would be SC. rious blunder to say nothing of the expense. Besides it would be setting a bad precedent. which would be dangerous.
 It seems to us that Q question of for or against a democratic form of government enters into this question. Besides it creates antagonism which would breed trouble, and the Lord knows we have trouble enough now with out additions.
 To anyone who wants to fol- low the demonstration methods. will say that they can obtain bulletins on any or all parts of the work by applying to the Az. ricultural Department. Washing ton. D. c. They are free for the asking.
 We are for progress in FACT. but not in IMAGINATION. Elk. perimenting oftimes kills the patient.
