Albert, Lea, Minn., Feb. IA movement has started among the farmers of Freeman and PickereI 1 axe townships, this county, to discour5 g
 the use of intoxicating liquors. ana thus far the scheme works Gdn1rl bly,
 The plan adopted is an anti-treating society, and the organization has aI- ready 9 gOOd-sized membership. A member does not agree to abstain from drinking himself but he does make 2 solemn promise not to tempt his brother or neiEhb0r or anybody by offering him drink, in a saloon CT out.

The great object Of the organization is to reduce the use of intoxicating liquor. especially in saloons. as tEere is where three -fourths of the drunk enness has it's origin.

EFFECT ON THE SENATE.
Trouble in Inc Philippines Will Help
 Army and Navy Bills.

Washington. Feb. 14.-ADpr0pria- tion bills will now have the right of way in the senate, and everything else will be sub0rdinated.
 The outbreak at Manila has had q
 very wholesome effect aside from it's influence on the fate of the treaty. For it is now believed that il may forca through the senate both the army re- organization bill and the navy person nel bill, the former of which seemed to stand no chance whatever a week ago, and the latter cf which seemed about to become the subject of urfOr- tunate wranglings.
 There is much less opposition to the army bill today than there was last week. Some of the senators who were most stTenUoUsly opposed t0. the Tati- fcatiOn Of the peace treaty EeieVe, now that the treaty is ratified that the United States should accept it's Ie- responsibilities in full and that no Cb- stacle should be placed in the path of the administration. which is trying to bring order out of the unsettled con- ditiOns in tie Philippines. CCuse- quently there will be democratic votes for the army bill; and it will be less easy than it seemed q few days ago for Senator German to inaUgurate a successful filibUSter against the meas ure while volunteer troops from stat $ represented by democratic and popu- list senators are actually facing the enemy at Manila. The permanent en- largement of the regular army will Ia- Iieve these volunteer forces from fur thcr service, and that is 2 hard ar2U- ment to go against
 While the chances Of the army hiii are thus greatly improved by the events Of the past few days, 1t does not necessarily follow that the bill will become a law, and such men as Vice President Hobart and Senator Elkins are still dubious in regard to it's pros poets, but other leading senators eG- press great confidence.
 In any event, there seems to be little doubt that the navy personnel bill will go through all right.
 Aside from these two measures, how ever. no important piece Of general legislation is likely to be passed There are but sixteen days remaining of this congress, and night sessions will have to he held in order to con- olete absolutely indispensable busi ness. so that bills like the Hanna Payne subsidy bill, which will meet with determined opposition, will have to go by the board.
