The members of the United

affairs deserve credit for the deter.
mined stand they took In the
defense of General Miles. The air
was full of premonitions of his be-
Ing called to strict and severe &C
count for his structures upon the
airy end of the administration. Fol-
chile retir ement was the least that
was predicted for this veteran
fighter. But when such news came
to the capitol, the veteran senators
proceeded to put their feet down
upon 1t with a dull thud which
was heard even to the White
House. They asserted, and
Chilly, too, that they were en-
titled to the best information and
thought possessed by any of the
employees of the government In
the investigation In any matter oil
general interest, and that no man
even be he in the military service,
should be called to account for his
evidence before the senate commit
tee when that evidence consisted
of his opinions honestly and plainly
and forcibly expressed upon the

has seldom occasion to give much
credit TO the senate, but tais time II
admires that body for the stand
taken In support of General Miles.

HOPE FOR VOTE TOMORROW.
Do Friends of oIeomargarire Bill, In
Senate.


Senate.
Washington, March 31.-The friends
Of the oleomargarine bill hope to Sc
cure vote upon that measure on
Tuesday of the present week, and as
soon as it shall be disposed of the
Chinese exclusion bill will be called
up. According to the present under
standing Senator Mitchell, of Oregon
who was largely instrumental in
framing the exclusion bill, will make
the first presentation Of it's merits tC
the senate. He will be followed by
other supporters of the bill, and il
is the hope Of Senator Penrose, wnc
has charge Of the measure, that the
senate will be able to conclude its
consideration within 10 days after il
is taken up. There is no pronounced
opposition to the bill as a whole, but
an effort will be made to amend it In
some particulars.
There are still several speeches tC
be made on the oleomargarine bill
but it is the general understanding
that the discussion will be concluded
during the first half of the week, 4
not by Tuesday. in time to allow d
vote on that date. 1t is expected that
the Indian appropriation and the river
and harbor bill will be reported dur
ing the week. Both are subject tc
immediate consideration. even to the
extent of displacing other bills. but
it is not believed that either of therG
will be used to deprive the Chinese
bill Of its chance for consideration.
The Philippine government bill
also will be reported, probably today
but it's consideration by the senatr
necessarily will be postponed 70:
some weeks.

Two Of the HatfieIds and Two Off

Watts accompanied Rutherford in
an attemp to arrest the younger of
the Hatflelds, on warrent charging
him with a purdercommited in North

Rutherford and Watts concealed
them selves near the log cabin Of
Thomas Hatfield, a resectable and
a good citizen, for the purpose of ly.
ing in wait for his son. About dawn
they rushed into the house and ever.
powered the young man and started
to take him form the house. Before
they crossed the theshold the father
pulled down his Winchester and open.
ed fire on theofficers. They quickly
released their prisoner and returned
the fire. Ephriam Hatfield was no
sooner at liberty than he, too, drew
a A Colt and began to pour lead al
the officers with accurate aim.
Killed in Two Minutes
In the space Of two minutes, or less
all the four participants were piled
almost in heap on the floor of one
room. During the fusillade a girl j
years old picked up a shotgun, and
with great difficulty raised the heavy
weapon to her shoulder and fired
both barrels at the officers.
The only eye-witnesses were the
wife of Thompson Hatfield and heI
little children. Watts could have
saved himself at one time by shoot
ing, when he had the drop, but by
so doing he would have killed one 81

When the Standard Oil company
was leasing all the land In the
country one of their agents called
on an old farmer, rot a thousand
miles away from here, who bitterly
refused to lease his land at any
price. When asked his reason for
not leasing he replied: When God
made this earth He put that oil
there for a purpose. They tell me
the earth turns on an axle, and 1t
may be that the oil was put there
to grease 1t. Suppose they pump
all of that oil out and the axletree
gets dry and rusts and the earth
stops turning In the middle of the
night, wouldn't we be in nice
