ELIHU ROOT GOT THE LARGEST FEE ft Tops Even the Enormous Fee Paid Attorney General Wickersham. JAMES DILL GOT MILLION THIS WAS HIS RECOMPENSE FOR PATCHING UP A LITTLE DIF"RENCE BETWEEN CARNEGIE ' ND H. C. FRICK. New York, April 19. George B. Wickersham, attorney general of ttlA TTflfAjf - Qf diA. v whn - was smjft of the attorneys in the litigation between the city of Chicago and the Chicago Traction company, was paid a fee of. 200,000, did not; receive as much, relatively, as Ellhu Root, who topped every fee ever paid to any. lawyer In the world considered from the view of services performed. James B. Dill, now a judge of the court of Errors and Appeals in New Jersey, was paid one million dollars Tor patching up the bitter differences between Andrew Carnegie and Henry C. Frlck. This took months of labor and the employment of many assistants in the search for records which were necessary in bringing about the reconciliation. . It is,v so far as the amount is concerned, the highest fee paid to a lawyer in the history of American jurisprudence. William D. Guthrie wa3 paid $800,000 for breaking the will of Henry B. Plant, which involved many months of labor and frequent appearances in court. After the death of Russell Sage a legal snarl presented Itself as to the distribution of the estate, variously estimated at from $140,000,000 to $300,000,000. Mrs. Sage, kindly, generous and just, wanted the legal question settled quickly and by authority. "I want you to see Mr. Elihu Root," she said to her adviser, "and say to him that I will consider it a distinct favor if. he will pass upon this question and give to me his decision. Communication was opened up At once with the then secretary of war. A special messenger called upon him. He 'was too much engrossed with his official duties to give the request attention. "Please say to Mrs. Sage," said he, "that it will be impossible for me to 'act. I am not practicing law now." "But, it is not a question of fee, Mr. Root," said the Intermediary. "Mm. Sage insists that you. and you only, shall advise in this matte." , "I repeat," replied the war secretary, "that I do not wish to be retained, and you may say that nothing further need be suggested. My fee would be practically prohibitive, and I want it to be so regarded." "And that fee would be" "Well, say $230,000," was the reply, in a tone intended' to cut off further discussion. That same day telegraphic communication with Mrs. Sage was opened. "Pay it," she said. Mr. Root was astounded when informed that his "prohibitive" fee was regarded as settled. He accomplished what he had to do in less than forty-eight hours, without appearing in court and without engaging additional aid, and Mrs. Sage was vey well satisfied. ;

PEEBLES LEADER
AFTER SENATE JOB Reported' That William J. Bryan Wants to Succeed . J. Burkett. HE DOESN'T DENY REPORT PEOPLE OF AMERICA WOULD BE HUGELY DELIGHTED TO SEE BOTH' BRYAN AND R008EVELT ON THE JOB. Washington, April 19. Democrats in congress are vastly interested in the reported possibility that William J. Bryan may seek election to the senate as the successor of Elmer J. Burkett, whose term expires March , 1911. A dispatch from Little Rock, Ark., quoted Mr, Bryan as saying that while he should prefer that some other Nebraska democrat be nominated for the senatorship, he would not say that he would not be a candidate. Earlier dispatches from Nebraska had represented Mr. Bryan as an acknowledged aspirant for senatorial honors. While Mr. Bryant's advent in the senate would not be hailed as an unmixed blessing by all the democratic members thereof, no doubt the rest of the country would take a great deal of pleasure in seeing Mr. Bryan a senator and derive no little pleasure therefrom. Then, if Mr. Roosevelt would only come to the senate as the successor of Chauncey Depew, the satisfaction of the country would be complete. A Rude Surprise. If either Mr. Bryan or Mr. Roosevelt is under the impression that upon becoming a senator he would at once step into the leadership of his respective party in that chamber, he would as well be prepared for a rude surprise. It is a pretty good guess that bother. Bryan and Mr. Roosevelt would have to undergo a course of hazingthough the dose would not be so severe, probably, as the one for instance, which is being applied to Lafollette, of Wisconsin." h There are a number of democratic senators who genuinely and sincerely acknowledge Bryan as the leader of their party, but they are hopelessly lu the .; minority. The average demo cratic senator is deeply convinced that he himself would make a much better leader than Mr. Bryan. And how they would keep him smarting from pinpricks! Old hands at the senatorial business can annoy a newcomer in a thousand , ways, and the newcomer isn't able to tell just where he is precked or who pricked him. Bryan Still Leads. Mr. Bryan's influence with .the democratic minority in the house would be quite another matter. Although a few house democrats have repudiated the Nebraskan, It undoubtedly Is true that a majority of them still look up on him as the greatest democrat of his day and are willing still to follow his lead. Mr. Bryan's being in the senate would make a lot of difference in the lower house of congress. Mr. Bryan will not come to the senate, however, without having a man's fight onhis hands. Elmer Burkett may not shine as one of the . great white lights of the upper house, but he knows, the game of politics and works at it twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, and all the weeks of the year. If there is a voter In Nebraska who hasn't received a personal letter from Burkett this year, it's because the voter's card has been lost. Burkett writes letters at the slightest provocation, and when there is no provocation he writes anyhow. It will come as news to most persons that there exists in Germany a monument to Napoleon I. This curiosity is to be found about eleven miles from Alzeny, in the grand duchy of Hesse. The monument is situated near the Vorholz hunting lodge, at the summit of wooded hill, and the spot is known as Napoleon's garden. It is a dwarfed pyramid of three sides, rather more than three feet in height' Upon It stands the inscription in Latin, French and German, showing that it commemorates the marriage of Napoleon I to Marie ; Louise, grand duchess of Austria, on April 1, 1809.

As one becomes more familiar with the conditions under which the farmer In the Irrigated tracts of the weat works his land and handles his crops It Is clear that he has several advantages over his fellow farmer In the central and eastern states, who relies upon rainfall alone for the moisture necessary for the growth and maturity of his crops. Perhaps his chief and most important advantage Is that he Is able to put water on bis land at will, being free from the distraction and annoyance of heavy rains during the time of seeding and cultivation, which would soak the ground, delay cultivation and give the weeds a big boost. Coupled with a perfect, regulation of the moisture which is allowed to go upon the land is another favorable condition the large number of clear, bright days during the harvest months, which make possible the perfect ripening of the grain and bay and the "harvesting and securing of it under most favorable conditions. Any one who has tried to cure hay between showers In June in the central and eastern states wfil ' appreciate this point. Lastly, the irrigated lands have this' vital point in their favor that little If any of the original fertility of the soil has been soaked tat and washed out by repeated and heavy rains. This accounts for the remarkable productivity of western soils, which have waited centuries for the magic touch of water to make them the garde'n spots of earth. In view of these points and others which might be mentioned, it is not surprising that many an, eastern farmer looks longingly toward the west and many another pulls up stakes and goes out to the Irrigated sections. ORCHARD CULTIVATION. There is nothing which can be done for the young orchard which, will tend to make it more thrifty and vigorous than to give it careful cultivation for the first few years after It is set. This result may be brought about to advantage by growing some crop between the rows of trees, such aa strawberries, potatoes, popcorn or, better still, beans. The frequent cultivation given keep the ground loose atad naqiat and keep the young trees from suffering should a hot and dry spell come in middle or late summer. If the orchard Is an old one and blue grass and weeds have gradually worked their way In, a good plan would be to give It a shallow plowing, so as not to Injure the surface roots, to disk frequently with extension or reversible disk until about the middle of July and then sow buckwheat and oats, which will come on and make a good winter cover crop. Next spring, if it is desired, the orchard may be throughly disked or plowed and sowed to clover. In Pacific coast orchards, where there is no danger of injury from winter freezing, the orchards are usually kept cultivated the seasen through. STRINGENT MEASURES NEEDED. It Is becoming more apparent every year that the legislatures in all states which have the noxious weed problem on hand should pass laws making it an offense punishable by heavy fine for a farm owner to sell any product of his farm whieh could possibly carry the foul seeds, to adjoining farms. It Is true that In some cases some such laws are on the statute books, but they are either not enforced or else the penalty they provide Is not sufficient to stop the nuisance With many landowners waging an almost futile warfaro against the worst weeds and their appearance In new fields and localities each year, v It Is clear that stringent measures will have to be adopted to give relief. Men whoso farms are not yet contaminated have the same interest in giving aid to the movement that people who' arewell do In seeing that a quarantine placed to prevent the spread of a loathsome disease la enforced. CARE OF CHICKS.' Little chickens are better off If they are not fed at all during the first twenty-four or forty-eight hours. This Is duo to the fact that by a provision of nature the yolk of the egg is the last portion to be absorbed in the change from egg to chick, and this contains sufficient nourishment to supply the little creature with all it needs during the time mentioned. The first food may be johnny bread crumbs, cottage cheese, chick feed and a little later cracked corn, while a little green food In some form should be furnished. Clean water and milk If available should be where the little fellows can get at them. Three things which should be remembered In the care of the little chicks Is that they should havo dry and clean quarters, be kept free from the attacks of lice and not allowed to eat wot; caw meal that he Work of Lor mma Small Small cow cononme relatively more feed ant produce more dairy products than largo onoa.

MARSHALL IS HOT A CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY
Indiana's Governor Is Not Even Laying Lines to Secure The Toga Now Being Worn By Beveridge. IS MUCH SATISFIED WITH PRESENT JOB Efforts of Hh Friends to Boom Him as the Successor of Bryan Will Fail to Have an Effect. ' V Speciil Correspondent. Indianapolis, April 19. Those admirers of Governor Thomas R. Marshall, who are so industriously boosting him as the logical candidate of the demacrats for President, may as well save their efforts, for Governor Marshall will not be a candidate for that nomi nation. There is no doubt the governor would be as glad as any other man to receive the honor at the hands of his party, but you can't make Thomas R. Marshall believe that he is big enough for president not yet. His friends believe he is big enough for anything and if they can Induce him to think so, they. will do it, but there is not the slightest danger of their being able to do this. Governor Marshall is modest to the third degree. No one ever heard him intimate that he was anything more than an ordinary, common cltixen, and it was this modesty on his part that played a large part in landing him in the governor's chair. Keep His Promise. During his campaign last summer and fall Governor Marshall said in his speeches that if elected he would give all of his attention to the duties of the office and that ho would not campaign for something else while governor. And this appears to be his poli cy, for with the exception of his pres ent trip to New York, and Washington, during which he made his Important speech at the New York democratic banquet, he has not been away from his office. . - r As a matter of course, when Marshall was elected governor of Indiana, upsetting a republican majority of 96,000, it brought him into national prom inence, and all over the country they bVgan to say that ho was presidential timber. "Who is this man Marshall," they asked. "If he can do this in Indiana, why can't he do it in national politics?" It was enough to make the democrats of the country sit up and take notice. It gave them the Idea that a new Moses had been found, and they said nice things about him. But the same thing was said about Judson Harmon, who was elected governor of Ohio by overcoming a republican majority of 150,000, and of Governor Johnson, of Min nesota, both of whom havo since been talked of for president. Marshall was merely one of the three most talked of men in the country. Then he went to New York and made his speech to the National Democratic club, in which, he expounded old-fashioned democratic principles in a way that pleased everybody. He jumped on the element that has taken the party away from first principles and told them what they 1 must do to bring the party back home again. - The speech made a hit, and the talk of Marshall for president broke out afresh. Won't Have Big Head. Governor Marshall has not arrived home yet, but will be back in a day or two, and it is safe to say that his head will be of the same size as when he went away. '.. He is not the kind of a man who is affected by praise or flattery. : If he was not a candidate for president before he went east he will not be a candidate for president when he returns to the west There has been a good deal of talk about Governor Marshall as a candidate for United States senator against Senator Beveridge, two years bene, but there is nothing in that, either. He will not ask for that office, and will not be a candidate. He baa given this out definitely. He says ho has promised to be governor for four

Would Split Party. - Another thing that would stand la the way of his becoming a candidate ' for senator Is that it would split the party square In two. for he would undoubtedly have the active opposition of Senator Shtrely. They never have MjibeJ' very well In politics, and It is not believed likely that Shlvely wouli do anything toward helping Marshall to anything. And. beside all this. Judge Joseph H. Shea, of Seymour, will be a candidate for United States senator in two years, and it la safe to predict that ho will get all the support that Shirely can give him, .for Judga Shea did more than any other man to elect Shlvely. Ho was 8hivelys campaign manager and he was a good one, too. . It is true that Governor Marshall la taking a very actiTe Interest in the reorganisation ot the democratic party along old-fashioned democratlo lines, but he is not using his office to do it. The party recognises the fact that as governor he is the biggest man In the party In this state today, and that they, must pay attention to what he say?. Governor Marshall has no allied himself, with either faction of the party, but Is keeping In the middle of the road, so as to be able to talk turkey to all sides. He knows that to be a candidate for United 8taies senator would mean a split In the party, ani he would then bo accused of Insincerity in his statement that he would ho. governor for four years and that he would not do anything else, and he la not going to take this position. There , will, however, be the usual number of candldatea for senator, among them being L. Ert Slack, of Franklin; John K. Lamb, of Terre Haute, and possibly John W. Kern of this city, though Kern's Intentions are not known definitely. Recently the British barque Antiope sailed from Newcastle. Australia to San Francisco. On the voyage.
