TALK WITH TAWNEY
The Winona Congressman Sees the
President and Is Then
Interviewed.
He Speaks Of the Trusts, the Tariff
and the Probabilities of an
Extra Session.

6utiai~s, Hashtnotos.. = -, = - :,
Washington, Nov. 25.-Representative
Tawney Of Minnesota. paid his respects to
the president this morning. They talked
about the Minnesota political situation
and the president congratulated the state
over it's splendid republican showing in
the late election. He expressed regret at
the defeat Of Mr.. Fletcher. Nothing was
said regarding the presidents trust or
| tariff policy. The call lasted only a few
minutes. 49, l.. =!
What sort Of a trust program do yo.:
favor?" The Journal man asked Mr..
Tawney. =
II have no program on the subject. The
president, Attorney General Knox and the
judiciary committee Of the, house have
been giving a great deal of consideration
to the question and I am disposed to fol-
low their recommendations
Next to the trust question in the, poll

lis the desire for some modification OF the
existing tariff schedules, not, however, as
a remedy for trusts, but in the interest of
more equitable distribution of benefits
resulting from the Industrial evolution
| through which we have been passing dur
ing the last five years. Whether it can
be accomplished or not, will depend en-
| tirely upon the attitude Of the leaders OF
the party in both branches Of congress. y
I'm your judgment win it be possible to
accomplish anything during the short SEES
sion along the line Of trust regulation and
tariff modification
80 far as trust legislation is concerned
1 think it entirely feasible to accomplish
something this session. AS to the matter
of tariff legislation I question II it woulc
be possible to accomplish anything more
than the mere investigation Of VIVA
schedules should be modified. We might, II
tent of the modification. We might, ir
addition, prepare and pass g. bill for tina
purpose in the house but its passage
through the senate could not be expected
under the rule Of unlimited debate ii
that body. What will be attempted, ne

recommendations and Of consideration o.
the question by representatives of the
party in conference or caucus"
I'm the event of failure to secure trust
an extra session be likely to be called?"
mo man can say whether it. will be
called or not. Extra sessions Of congress
have been called in the past only wher
there was some great national exigenc5
demanding immediate action by congress
In the event of the failure of the trust
and tariff legislation at this session, the
exigency would be more Of a party thar
a national character. Hence. the presi'
dent might very properly decline to ex-
erctsc the power vested in him by the
constitution Of converting, congress in eX-

THE CANAL HAS STOPPED
Secretary Hay Reports on the Con-
dition of Affairs to the
Cabinet.

Washington. Nov. 25.-The cabinet
meeting to- day devoted almost exclu-
sively to the consideration of the status
of the reciprocity treaty with Cuba and
the canal treaty with Colombia.
Secretary Hay, while presenting the
subject of the canal negotiations, not
able to report any progress in the past
week. In fact. it appears that the nego-
tiations have come to a dead stop, and,
while no ultimatum has passed. the pre-
else situation may be described in the
statement that the Colombian minister
here, Concha, has distinctly informed the
state department that he canpot in be-
half of his government accept the last
proposition of the United States as basis
for a canal treaty.
The state department has already let it
be known that it has come to the end OF
it's concessions, so the chances Of a re-
newal of the negotiations in the near flu
ture are not bright.

A BAD MIx-UP
The Mayor and Police Of Havana Are Not
Working Together.

working iOSetueE.
Havana, Nov 25.-The police are much
incensed at the attitude of the authori-
ties, who are virtually tying their hands
and encouraging violence. on the part of
the strikers. The latter it is declared,
will seek revenge for the killing OF three
of their number. The worst element
among the strikers are the men from the
slaughter houses, who are all on strike.
The mayor issued decree ordering all
groups on the streets to be disbanded in
view Of the disorderly turn Of affairs. III
all shops In the town the shutters have
beene pulled down.
All shipping work is paralyzed in the
harbor. as the longshoremen are all out.
No newspapers have been printed since

general strike.
Manager Greenwood has ordered that
no more electric cars be run until the po
lice get control Of affairs. It was stated
at the palace that the railway company
intended to appeal to Mr.. Squier, the
Greenwood, the manager of the company,
was asked to call at the palace, where
assurances were given him that order
would be re-established. -
Orders have been given to all members
of the rural guard in the outlying districts
of Havana to concentrate in the city. The
mayor has been advised that unless cars
can be run within a stipulated period the
rural guard will assume charge Of the
maintenance of order in the city.
In order to placate the strikers, the
mayor when he discharged General
Cardenas, the chief Of police. last week
for interfering with his policy toward the
striking cigarmakers, issued an order that
policemen should not.use their clubs.
/ The responsibility for the entire trouble
| is placed on the city authorities. The
condition of affairs. which is regarded as
serious, is charged to the action of the
mayor in dismissing Chief Of Police Car
denas q few days ago because he ordered
his men to charge the rioting strikers.
This interfered with the morale OF the
police force. The mayor says that his ac-

The reason for the Aimmense
immigration to the Dakotas is
explained by the Chicago Tribune:
THE two Dakotas>a ARE having a
boom of the healthiest kind.
North Dakota's population in
creased Is per cent in the last ten
years. Last year 10000 immi-
grants found homes there, and
this year it is estimated 100000
more will 60 there. The produc-
tiveness of the soil is a great at
traction for the farmers. The
Dakotas are not only the great
wheat fields of the world but they
are suitable for diversified farm
ing. The flax crop is larger than
the crop of the entire United
States has been in recent years,
and will be more than half the
country's crop this season. North
Dakota has a grass area of 49,
100000 acres, and over this whole
area the average rainfall is seven
teen inches. The farmers of the
Dakotas have paid off their mort
cages and are accommodating
money. As a rule two seasons
will clear the membranes and
pay all running expenses and the
purchase price. This is the rea:
son why there is a rush of farm
ers from Iowa, Illinois, Wiscon'
sin, Indiana, and the middle west
just as years ago there was a rush
of eastern farmers to the the1
western states. The middle ives
may yet have its old home festi

them.

The Mandan Pioneer has
learned of an effort to form a lig-
mite coal trust in North Dakota.
This seems almost impossible as
nearly every farmer and rancher
can get all the coal he wants for
the digging. The mine owners
along the line of the railroads
might be able to form a combina-
ton to advance the price of this
-fuei in tie eastern part of the
state but they could not advance
prices west of the Missouri. river
where the price of coal merely
represents the cost of mining and
placing the article in the cellar.

Many head of cattle and horses

FIRST DISCOVERY OF GOLD.

After careful investigation it has been
determined that the date of the dis
covery of gold in California was January
18th. i848. About that same time there
was another important discovery, which
to thousands of people has been worth
o than all the gold, because it re-
stored them to health, and THAT is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. This wonder
full medicine continues to cure stomach
and bowel complaints, the same today as
in the past, and although many medi-
cines have come and gone, the Bitters
still remain the peoples favorite. To
those who suffer from dyspepsia, indiges-
ton, headache, heartburn, constipation
or b~iliousness, and have tried other medi-
cines without obtaining relief, this
remedy will prove a blessing, because it
will surely cure them. Try a bottle and
satisfy yourself.
