TELLING FACTS
FROM MR.
Editor Soga left tho stand today af
ter his thrco days cioss-oxauiluatlon,
having admitted practically all the
prosecution charged against him and
Ills paper.
Unlike Negoro who fenced with tho
lawyer on every point, Soga attempted
few denials nml fewer explanations.
Negoro was not nverso to shifting tho
responsibility to tho next man, and
when tho newspniier 111 tides went
clearly outside tho law usually took
rcfugo In haying that ho had not writ
ten them and did not remember hav
ing read them, Soga had nobody clso
that he could blame, and articles which
Negoro had pronounced cowardly and
dastardly or tho product of somebody's
Imagination weio unhesitatingly fath
ered by tho scholarly looking editor.
Kinney went through thn whole
fcchemo of Inviting the plantation lab
orers to send in the names of the
"sycophants," publishing tho blackest.

jarda.
Walter Dillingham said this morn
ing that It would requlie .at leant
200,000 cubic yards lo nl the
ponds complete, but that sufficient
money was not available at this
time, Mr. Dillingham was notified
this morning of the award, and said
that as soon as the contract could
he signed, sent back to Washington
and returned, tho work would be
