Hutchinson's Testimony Before the Indus trial Commission By Telexrapb to tbe Hernlng Star. Washington, June 13. D. P. Hut chinson, president of the board of trus tees of Charlotte, N. C, testified to day before the industrial commission, concerning the successful effort made by Charlotte to establish good roads in the surrounding country. He said that ninety miles of macadam road had been established at a probable cost of $250,000. Convict labor, he said, is used in constructing the road beds, as free labor would cost from 30 to 60 per cent. more. Mr. Hutchinson said that the saving in cost to rolling stock was more than equal to the cost of the roads and that the value of farming and other lands lying upon the im proved highways has been enchanced 50 per cent, since the construction of the new roads.

A SUBJECT DISCUSSED BY THE JER ICHO DEBATING SOCIETY. pap perklna. the Postmaster, Tell Bow tke OrcanlMtlon Was Started aid How -It Came to an Untimely and Iniclorlona End. Copyright, 1SC3. : y n. B. Lewis. The Jericho Debanu society was Squar Joslyn's Idea. It uawned on him one afternoon as he was hoeln 1 his garden, and that even In he come over to the postofflce and made a speech and started the ball roiun. a week later the society had its first tneetln. There was a hot time fur about an hour. Of the 40 men present 35 wanted to be president, but after awhile, and by puttin in two votes fur himself, the souar was duly eiectea. Deacon Spooner was made referee, and the other offices wasn't struggled after to any extent. There wasn t any ae- hfttln at the first meetln, Dut bquar Joslyn made a speech of acceptance which raised the price of butter in Jericho 10 cents a pound. After sayin that he wouldn't exchange places with the president of the United States he began with the year 750 B. o., and tne wav he come whirlln along down to the year 1900 made the glass In the windows rattle. He excited the crowd as he hit Nero, brought applause as he touched on Coinmbus, and when he got through with Washington there wasn't no holdln Enos Williams, and Jonas Bebee and Aaron Bradshaw was in tears. After the speech was over Klder Spooner flggered It up and de clared that the squar had made 27 dif ferent D'lnts in his oration, which was four p'ints more than Demosthenes or Cicero had ever made. The subject fur debate at the next meetln was "Does Honesty Pay?" The "FOLLKB ME BACK TO THE DATS OF JULIUS CESAR." number on the affirmative and negative side was about even, and Ebenezer White was appointed to lead off and tell how honesty paid him. Each speaker was to be limited to ten min Its. Ebenezer had been thlnkin it over fur three or four days, and when he got up he began with: 'Toiler me back to the days of Julius Caesar. When Cresar was a young man of 22, he hadn't a dollar to his name and no show to strike a job. lie had about made np his mind to commit suicide when he found a Ave dollar goldpiece in the road. His first thought was to use the money to start in busi ness, but it was only a temptation. His honesty wouldn't permit such a thing. He went around Inquirln who had lost $5. and at length found the owner," and the owner took a likin to him and pushed him along until he was finally made a king." "That's one tally mark fur the affirm ative side." said 'the deacon as the speaker sat down, "and I decide that Ebenezer baa made five p'ints. We will now hear from Jonas Bebee 6n the negative side." Toiler me back to the days of Julius Ctesar." began Jonas as he rose np. "I object!" protested Ebenezer. "Hav in follered rue back, the meetln can't foller Jonas. I appeal to the referee." "I shall have to overrule the objec tion." said the deacon. 4'We follered Ebenezer back, and we must give Jo nas Jest as good a show. If he's got anything new about Julius Caesar, we'd like to hear It." "When Ctesar waa a young man of 22, he hadn't a dollar to Ms name." continued Jonas, "and. though he of fered to dig out stumps fur 15 cents a day, he couldn't hit a job. He had made up his mind to hang himself when he found a stray mewl In the woods. He knew he ought to advertise the mewl and restore him to his owner, but dishonesty carried the day. He sold the critter to the first man who would buy, and with the $12 he re ceived he went Into politics and pushed along until be finally became one of the greatest men of his time. He lived fur 30 years after stealin that mewl, and he was honored and respected and had a good time and died lamented by all." ' "That's a tally mark on the negative side," said the deacon, "and the p'ints seem to be about even." "But whar did Jonas git his facts?" asks Ebenezer. "Whar did you git yours?" asked Jo nas in reply. The deacon sakl the speakln had best continue, and he called upon Aaron Bradshaw, who was on the affirmative side, fur his argymcnt "Foller me back to the days of Julius .Csesar," began Aaron, with a wave of bis hand, but when he had got that fur both Ebenezer and Jonas tried to yell him down arid nppeal to the referee. "I've got to give Aaron a fair show." replied the deacon. "If he wants t e follered back to the days of Jul: us Caesar, this society bus got to tag along behind him. It's rnthir a cur'us coin cidence that the three of you want to be follered back to the same man. but that's none of my business. Go on, Aaron." Aaron went on. He bad it that Cae sar was poor and out of a Job and dis couraged when he happened to find a diamond ring in a mudhoie. He could have got an advance of $30 on it at a pawnbroker's, but he actually went hungry fur three days while huntln up the loser. Struck by such a display of unselfish honesty, the owner presented him with $75, took him under bis wing and in time made him king." "That's another tally fur the affirma tive," said the deacon, "and I guess I'll give Aaron the same number of p'ints as the rest. Alvin Bidwell, of the negatives, is httchin around in an anxious way, and we'll hear what he's got to say in favor of dishonesty." "Foller me back to the days of Julius Caesar," began Alvin In his ramblin voice, but thar was yells and whoops and protests from Ebenezer, Jonas and Aaron. "It's a cur'us coincidence, I'll admit," said the deacon when he could be heard, "but 1 don't see how we kin help but foller Alvin back if he Insists upon it Everybody must have a fair show. Alvin, hadn't you as lief be fol lered back to the garden of Eden or Dan! in the lions' den?" . Alvin stuck fur Julius Csesar and went ahead. He found Julius poor and discouraged and livln on turnips, and he related how the young man sat down and thought It all acer and then decided to steal a hog. He stole one, sold him for $3, donbjed his money on a Boss race ana finally .tnhde a place i and name for hiiust ir. Had he con- i tlnued to be honest he would have starved to death and been burled at the expense of the town. His dishonesty enabled him to become king and to do good to millions. "The tallies are even so fur." said the deacon as Alvin sat down". ".: ad wo'll now hear from Phlletus Johnson on the affirmative side." "Foller me hack to the dnys of Julius Caesar," began Puik'ius as he rose up, and then thar was a row. , It was a full ten minits before order was re stored, and durin that time most ev erybody got his head punched at least once and his coat torn up the back. By and by Deacon Spooner said: "It's a shame and a disgrace,, to the town of Jericho to carry on in this way. I notice that I-Jslv Billings, who dont belong on either side, has Jest come in. Llsh. do-you want to say anything?" '. "Not very much," replied Llsh as he looked around. "I'd simply like to "ask If anybody here has lost this half dol lar." 1 He held up the coin in his fingers. There was 47 men in the room, and every single one of 'em, Includin the deacon and the squar. replied that It was his. - "As to the Debatin society, It may be a good thing," said Llsh as a grin spread over his face; "but, .as to tho subject of discussion tonight, I guess you'd better drop it and let it stay dropped. This half dollar has bin in my pocket fur two weeks, and every one of you was willin to lie to git hold of It." Then Lish moved softly down stairs and went home, and after the rest of the crowd had sat and looked at each other fur two or three minits in an uncomfortable way the president put on his hat and said: "Instead of follerin anybody else back to the days of Julius Csesar, I guess we'd better foller Lish Billings down stairs Nand call the thing bust ed."

"Where is the potash of the United States?" asked Dr. Edward Atkinson of the scientists recently gathered In convention at Columbia university. New York. "The world now depends for its entire supply upon a single mine In Saxony, and yet there should be vast deposits of that mineral in the al kaline and salt plains of this country. Where are they? It is the duty of geol-' ogists to find them. When they are discovered the geologists who find them will confer a greater blessing upon this country than they would by un earthing all the gold and silver in the world." A few years ago Sir William Crookes Btartled the world by the prediction that at no distant date the world's sup ply of nitrogen available for the growth of wheat would be exhausted and crops could no longer be produced. 'Tea vine" farmers, however, have very quietly solved that problem by growing leguminous crops,' which accumulate in their roots nitrogen from the. air, and thus enrich tho land whore they are grown preparatory to otln-r crops. "The great reservoir of the a!;.:j-viai'ro is now available in co:;!Kn:i!iou with phosphates and potash to maintain the perpetual fertility of the soil." accord ing to Dr. Atkinson. Fhosphate has already been found in large quantity In the coast lands of South Carolina. Florida and (leorgia and in Tennessee. Potnsli is now the problem that agriculture must face. All the potash. of the world is now sup plied by a miuo at Stas-furt. Saxony. Germany. This was discovered by accident while salt was being bored for. Dr. Atkinson says this history may be repeated in the west. He thinks potash should be. found by deep bor ings In the neighborhood of those spring of the west., which contain so mucli potassium that ranchers have to keep their cattle from drinking tho wa ters, It may also be found in tho re gion extending from West Virginia to the arid lands of New Mexico and Ari zona. notice to mariners.

' Nitrate of soda alone gave no mark ed Increase in jyield, but, In combina tion with other elements, generally in creased the yield, with a normal per cent of sugar.

When lime was applied alone on muck land. Increased applications Increased the tonnage of beets, but decreased the percentage of sugar.
