TARIFF DEBATE OVER
Republicans and Sore Democrats
Can Stop the Trouble.
DAVEHILL LAYS DOWN THE LAW
Whites, Appointment Laid Over-Demo-
cratic Senators Want to Talk on
Finance Committee Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-Before 60
ing to their caucus today there was a
great deal of discussion as to what
course the republicans should pursue
on the new member of the finance
committee. Among number OF them
there was q disposition to enter the
fight and name some other democrat
in the place of White for member on
the finance committee. It was under
stood that Senator Murphy Of New
York was to be pushed by some of the
conservative senators. Most of the free
silver senators expressed themselves as
,gainst interfering with the demo-
Gratis in making up committees, and IL
was also said that they would not
want to see an anti-silver man secure
the place, and no doubt:would oppose
Murphy for this feason. It is pro ba-
ble; however. that the republicans will
take decided grounds against any fur.
Their legislation at this time and may
try to prevent a filling of the vacancy
during this session. tits believed that
before this important v3te can be taken
u quorum will have disappeared.
The caucus lasted until 3 p. NJ, when
it adjourned without having accom-.
plished great deal. As to taking
action on filling the vacancy, the gen.
erul feeling was that no party action
was necessary. Some of the senators
present expressed the opinion that in
view of the position taken by Senator
Hill on the appointment to fill the
vacancy OIL the financial committee. it
would be proper In return for the re.
publican senators to support q resolu-
ton that he may offer them in regard
to the appointment, thinking 1t proba-
ble that he might desire to secure the
name If some senator for that of Mr..
White. When Senator Hill was ap-
prised of this action he said he should
not attempt to substitute someone else,
because he had 10 personal objection

LATE NEWS FROM THE ORIENT.
Japan People,. Enthusiastic About tho
War With China.

Japan Peopl. Enthusiastic About tho
War With China.
VICTORIA, B. e.. August 1.-THE
steamer Empress Of Japan arrived this
morning from Japan, having left
Yokohama on August 5. War was
formally declared August 3, the proc
lainati0n being received with every
token of rejoicing throughout Japan,
offers of men and means coming from
all corners of the empire. Owing to
the enactment of the new press regu-
Iations on August ], the Japanese pa
pers give only meager details, strongly
colored for Japan readers, of war hap
penings, the new laws decreeing that
editors publishing anything in regard
10 the war without its first being for
maily corrected and approved by the
government officers appointed for the
purpose, are liable to imprisonment
with hard labor for term of months.
Details of the engagement which re-
suited in the sihklng Of the British
steamer Kow Shun9, furnished the
japanese, substantiate the contention
that the owners of the vessel should
look to China for reparation. asserting
that the catastrophe was brought about
solely by reason of the Chinese troops
aboard refusing to allow Captain Gal
worthy to carry out the instructions
gwen him by the japanese, he and his
officers being forced to jump Into the
sea to escape being shot by the Chi
nese, who were bis passengers. Japan
insists that the Kow Shung was sunk
on account of the piratical conduct OF
tile Chinese troops on bosrd toward
the British captain. News is also
given in the English papers of Yoko-
hama of numerous engagements In
which japanese ships were victorious.
A report that large force of Chinese
troops are being marched overland, and
that they are now almost on the bor-
ders of Corea appears to be authenti.
Gated by the latest advicee. When
General Yuan left Seoul he gave in
structions to the head of the powerful
Ming family that he would return to
Corea with y large army.
An engagement occurred Mt Seikwan
on July 80. The Chinese were driven
back with heavy loss, and the Japanese
troops contin ued toward Asan.

The First. Railroads.

The first railroad in the United
States was projected by Gridley
Bryant, a civil engineer, in 1926. It
vas built to convey granite from the
quarries at Quincy, Mass, to Tide
water. Its length was four miles,
and it cost $4,000. The ties were of
stone, placed eight feet apart on the
road-bed. On rails of wood, six
inches thick, wrought-iron plates
three inches wide and quarter of an
inch thick, were spiked. The second
railroad was built in 1927, for hauling
coal from the mines at Mauch Chunk,
Pa. The Baltimore & Ohio was be-
gun in 1923, and in 1880, Peter
Cooper, of New York, built the first
locomotive ever constructed in the
United States. In 1926 charter was
granted for the Mohawk & Hudson
railroad, to unite Albany and
Schenectady, and in 1880 work was
begun on this road, which was the
seed fir m which has grown the mag
nifcent New York Central Railroad.
Horses were the original motive power
used, but reports being received from
Europe of successful trials of the
locomotive there, it was resolved to
employ steam. In August, 1881, the
West Point foundry of New York,
completed and delivered to Mohawk
& Hudson company the "DeWittClin
ton" the first locomotive used in the
state. The chief engineer, in his pre-
liminary report to the projectors, did
not expect that revenue would be
derived from any source except carry
ing passengers, yet being man of
foresight, he thought it possible that
some freight might be offered, and SO
suggested that the foundations ought
to be made very solid. There are
now 215, 900 miles of railroad in our
country, having more than 100000
cars and locomotives, carrying an
nually nearly 600,OO0O0O passengers
and 100000 tons of freight. In
the front rank of the companies in
the West is the great Burlington
Route. A journey over it's lines

you should secure tickets reading via

heads are SO well filled with plump kernels,
but those who have observed the cool, damp

cotton cloth hanging III room with the

rometer indicates moisture or storm, and
Prof. Moore reports an abnormally low bar

This will account for the filling Of the

Your correspondent went to Graceville
last week via Donnelly and we travelled
over some OF the poorest Us well as the best
soil in Stevens county. From Donnelly
west for few miles the crops were very
fair, but when we came to the desert there
was no living thing to be seen, neither bird.
beast, or creeping thing, even the grass was
driedup. After passing this desert we came
to strip of country that might well be
called the oasis OF Stevens county. 1t is
about twelve miles across this fertile strip
of country, and the crops were fine. The
only complaint heard was the low price
of wheat, and the language used when
speaking of the .price Of wheat would not
look well in print.

Mgr. Satolli has approved the action
of Bishop Watterson, of Ohio, in ex.
Guiding liquor dealers and saloon
keepers from membership in Catholic
societies and from the sacraments of
the church. This action on the part
OF the papal ablegate is an important
one in the cause of temperance, and
has occasioned much CONSERVATION
among those engaged in the liquor
traffic, and upon whom the decision
Las an individual bearing, in that it
practically sewers church relations.
Probably no decision bearing on the
liquor traffic has ever caused more
comment and attracted wider notice,
than has this one, as its effect is to
define the attitude of the Catholic
church toward tho saloon and
practically declares against not only
tae traffic but those engaged in it.
The decision brings to the cause of
temperance, the important and in
auential power of the Catholic church,
ana that this is realized fully by the
liquor interests, is very evident when
oneof It's leading organs acknowledges,
that the enforcement of the decree
will be the severest blow the liquor
traffic has ever suAtained.
