Book News for November
IS ready.
We, the publishers, have a
criticism upon it. It as too
cheap. If instead of 5 cents
it were 20, you would respect
it vastly more. This number
has, aside from advertisements
fifty-two pages-octavo-solid
news Of literature. Much of il
eclectic, much original, all high
class.
Book News is unique in cir
culation, fills its own peculiar
place, tells more people about
books than any other period
ical in this country devoted to
literary news, sells for 5oc a
year, or &c a number.

Perhaps it would be impOs-
sible to prove that our stock
of Black Dress Goods is I'M
matched in America, but we
think it is in the lead in vari-
ETY., in quality, in all thatmakes
Black Dress Stuffs desirable.
Prices we know about-as low
as anywhere-very likely low
er.
Only the goods of foremost
understands the start. Only
their best in the grade chosen.
More than that ; very likely in
matters of shade or finish 7Oe
say precisely what the fact
shall be. No cropping in the
dark, no experimenting that
you are likely to be the victim
Of. Knowing what is right
and getting it are what make
this great Black Dress Goods
stock so peerless.
No break anywhere in the
line.

rHn ELECTIONS BILL.


Washington, January l5.--When the
silver bill had been adopted yesterday
and thus disposed OF Mr. HOar called up
the ELECTIONS bill in order to make II
the unfinished business for to-day
The vote resulted IN tie--ycas 33,
nays 3d. The vice president cast the
deciding vote IN the affirmative, thus
carrying the motion.
: Tho total vote ON Mr. Hoars motion
to take 0p the elections bill was 66, ex
elusive Of the vote OF the vice president.
Twenty-Five senators were recorded as
absent, twelve republicans and ten dem
ocrats. Senator Ingalls, was present,
but he refrained from voting, and four
of the republican senators, while not IN
the chamber when the vote was taken,
were in the city. The actual republic
can absentees were seyen--B Blair, Chan
der, Farwell, Moo0S, Pettigrew, Pierce
and Spuires.
The republican vote was thirty-three,
exclusive OF the vice president, or If
teen less than a quorum, 80 that If the
democratic senators should resort to the
plan Of refusing to vote and In this are
joined by Senators Stanford, Teller,
Wolcott, Jones OF Nevada Stewart and
Washburn tthe republicans who voted
with them last night, the advocates Of
the elections bill would require the at
tendance of six of these seven actual abb
sentees before they could proceed with
the measure or could act upon the
cloture rule On the other hand, If the
six republicans who voted with the
democrats last night, should not 60 to
the length OF technically absehting
1a.. I1b 4
selves with casting their votes in oppo-
sition to the republican majority, the
latter would have an even quorum ex-
elusive Of the vice presidents vote.
When the election bill came up to-
day, Mr. Evarts took the floor.
THE DEMOCRATS STILL HOPEFUL
The democrats have not yet perfected
any plan to meet the changed situation
in regard 10 the elections bill. 1t was
only brought under consideration by a
scratch, and they hope to secure before
the end Of the week the cooperation Of
enough republican senators TO lay IL
aside permanently. This may not be
difficult to do, as a large number of re-
publican senators believe that the bill
has been a sufficient obstruction here
tofore, without having it again block
ing the road of important legislation.
The only plan that the democrats
have resolved upon is to allow the dis
cussion to proceed for the next two
days. BY that time, il is expected,
they will find enough allies among the
republicans 10 defeat the further con-
sideration OF the bill. The senators
who are supporting Mr Hoar in his en-
terprise are not contenting themselves
with waiting game, however, and to
consider the cl0ture resolution will
likely be made In the senate tomorrow
morning. II this is done II is more
likely 10 help than 70 hurt the opposi-
ton TO the. bill.
Senator Quay has relapsed into his
usual silence and has not yet indicated
whether or not he win move TO substi-
tute his bayonet bin for the Hoar meas

A stronger immigration Bill Reported,

Washington. January l7.-The joint
immigration committee has presented a
new immigration bill TO the house.
Under the present law the classes OF
immigrants inhibited from coming to
this country are convicts lunatics,
idiots and paupers. The bill reported
also inhibits persons likely TO become
paupers, polygamists and persons con-
victed for any crime involving moral
turpitude. Some political offenders are
not included. The bill also provides
that any person whose transportation
was paid for by another or who has
been assisted TO immigrate must
show afiirmatively and satisfactorily ~
that he is not with the inhibited classes.
The object OF this is TO meet the cases
Of persons sent over by poor law gaur-
dians.
A number of provisions are made TO
meet evasions OF the contract labor law.
Persons who come here in response TO
advertisements in foreign papers are
prohibited from landing, and it is also
sought to prevent steamship companies
from fostering immigration by means
OF agents. Ministers and persons in
recognized professions are especially
exempted from these provisions. The
system of inspection Of immigrants is
strengthened In various ways.

thunder, and returning to the charge until
losing their equilibrium, they tumble over
in cloud Of spray upheaving the ice

of whip lask on the boiling sea. The
sea gulls fly away screaming, and often a
black shining whale comes fCr an instant

Farmers Demand That Only Agriculture ne
Taught in the Iowa Agricult urai
college.


The board Of trustees Of the Agricul-
tural College Is ia session here, and the
meeting is exciting an unusual degree
of interest. Besides the board there
are present, sitting rs seperate bodies,
inc faculties Of the college; Professor
Stanton acting President. the confer
ence committees ei faculty and trustees,
and special committees representing
the Farmers Alliance, thc State Dairy
Convention. and the Stock Breeders
Association, making in all about forty
prominent men interested in promoting
the welfare OF the college. The trustees
are TO elect a President and several
members Of the faculty TO fill vacancies,
including a professor of agriculture.
There are some apparently irreconcila-
Bile differences Of opinion as TO the policy
TO be pursued, one party favoring the
present educational course. with slight
notifications, and the other party urg-
ing that agriculture shall be the one
aim and the one course Of study TO be
pursued The latter would strike out
all branches of science and literary stud
les not directly related TO agriculture.
For the Presidency but two names are
discussed, Professor +. w. Stanton, of
the faculty and William W. Beard
shear, Of Dos Momes. formerly president
Of Western College at Toledo, Iowa. To-
day the representatives Of the various
farmers organizations held a conference
and after prolonged discussion agreed
upon the following propositions TO be
submitted 10 the trustees. /. a thorough
reorganization Of the course of study.

studies that do not have direct bear

tion Of James Wilson for professor Of

culture, and it Is doubtful II he would

The Pope's brother.

Cardinal Joseph Pecei, brother Of Pope
Lee XIII, celebrated the other day the
fftieth anniversary of his admission to
holy orders. Before the end of the year
he will be so years old, having been born
Dec. 13, 1907. lie was a member Of the
order Of Jesuits and a great student For
reasons which he never made known, he
withdrew from the order in 1851. That
step might have thrown him out of the
clerical career had he not been appointed
professor Of philosophy at the seminary Of
Perugia, where his brother. the present
pope, was bishop at the time When the
states Of the church were conquered by
the King Of Italy, Pecci refused to take
the oath Of allegiance and was deprived Of
his professorship. But his brother, who
had meanwhile been elected pope, again
came to his assitance by appointing him a
cardinal and employing him in several
clerical occupations at The vatican. Nepot-
ism, il seems, therefore, is as rife at Rome
DOW as il was Of old.
