LOOKS TO STATES FIRST.
Roosevelt Will Not Yet Take Part in
Insurance Reform Movement

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-President
Roosevelt was surprised when he read
in this mornings papers an Associated
Press dispatch from st. Paul, in which
insurance Commissioner O'Brien, at
the direction of Governor Johnson.
made public the result of an interview
with the president last Saturday. The
dispatch referred to states that the
president is likely to become the chief
arbitrator" in a cooperative effort by
the states to control the great 1nsur-
ance companies. This statement is not
true.
The president under certain condi-
lions, which will be pointed out later
on, will lend the influence of his name
and office to having the states get better
control of the insurance business, but
he will not be a chief arbitrator" He
will not expect the work to be done by
the states themselves, through their
highest officials, and his own partici-
patton Will not go beyond use of his
name, and he will do even this only
after congress has failed to act.
1t is his purpose to make urgent
recommendation in his message for
federal control of insurance. This
recommendation may not be adopted.
For one thing, there may be consti-
for another, congress may be disin-
clined, on general principles, to inter-
fere.

TERRIFIC SAND STORM
Snake River Road Buried Under
Mount, rs of Sand.
Under

B. F. Simmons, the we'll known
Snake river fruit grower was in Walla
Walla today and reported a terrific
sandstone on Snake river Saturday
night and Sunday. The Snake River
Valley railroad was buried for nearly
a mile under mountains of shifting
sands which require the efforts of
nearly 100 shovelers and teams to
remove so that traffic over the road
could be resumed. Sunday the COM
pany was compelled to use the n.
P. tracks to move trains. Most of the
sand was removed last night and traf
fic over the road was resumed today.
The storm was one of the severest oc-
curing on the river in several years.
Mr.. Simmons says that very little
snow fell on the Snake river bottoms,
although the higher hills are well COW
cred with the beautiful.

WINTER WEATHER PUTS DAMPER
ON THE FOOTBALL PLAYERS
AT COLLEGE.
Local Team Would Prefer Dry Field
for Their Fast Work Next
Thursday.

Whitman is feeling rather blue over
the weather on account of the big
game Thanksgiving. A bad field would
work a hardship against the speedy lit
tie aggregation which is going to make
things so hot for the Pullmanites on
Thursday. Signal practice this after
noon was held in the gymnasium and
will be until the snow leaves. The
team is in perfect trim. Jim Hill who
was knocked out in the scrimmage
with the second team Saturday is all
right today. Every man is in the best
shape he has been this season and
all that is wanted is good weather on
Thursday to make the game the hard
est fought one ever seen in Walla Wal
la. The feeling up at the college is
that there is better chance of "skin-
ming" the agriculturists than there
ever was before and the spirits of the
students We're fine until the snow came.
Several fine new football songs have
been composed and the roofing on
Thanksgiving will be the most strenu-
Gus which the Whitmanites have ever
attempted.
Jim Rigsby an old Whitman student
and football man who is now in
charge of the Equitable Savings and
Loan association, Seattle, is expecting
to come over Thursday to see Whit
man and Pullman fight it out.

Great Place for HandbiIIs.
The greatest nuisance the post
office officials have to contend with is
the persistency with which handbils,
circulars, notices and cards are strewn
about the desks. To attract public
notice distributors do not hesitate to
use Uncle Sans mucilage to paste
handbills on the walls and before the
lobby was given a renovation a few
days ago the walls bore a pretty fair
resemblance to a public bill board.
