Democrats Indignant.

The Democrats OF the l1ouse Commit
tee on Agriculture. headed BY Represent
ative Lamb. are Indignant that these
three Republicans should have taken 1t
upon themselves 10 prepare the amend
meht to the bill.
Some OF majority members OF the COM
,nittee also resent the course OF Wads-
committee. It remains to see whether they
will fall in line.
3 It Is understood that the main features
of the Wadsworth amendment. which
may be termed the packers amendment@in
the interest of aptness, ere that the
government shall bear all the cost OF
inspection and second. that: the con-
demned carcass shall not be destroyed,
but shall be taken to the tank" to be
converted into fertilizer. There Is no
chance to convert a diseased carcass into
superb sausage" and "coniptions corn
beef"f II be eaten up with acids, or
quick-lme, or squirted full OF kerosne,
but there are many slips 'twixt slaughter
pen and fertilizer tank.
The cry OF economy would make It
easy for the trust to keep down the item
for the cost OF inspection to such point
that the service would be absolutely In
effective.
Unless the Beef Trust hopes to nullify
the inspection law in this way, its course
in opposing having the cost put upon the
packers is inexplicable. since 1t has said
from the first that It would simply in
crease the price to the consumer by the
cost OF the inspection.
There is not the slightest doubt that
the packers are making a great effort
to defeat Inspection, and to accom-
plish this are working along the lines
indicated above.
Report To-day.
The report of the investigation OF con-
ditons in the packing houses will be
sent to Congress BY the President to-
morrow. With 1t he will send message
urging legislation along the eTlines OF the
Beveridge amendment. The House has
heretofore been absolutely docile IN tho
matter OF taking orders from the White
House. 1t Is more than likely that It
Will be brought into line on this question
OF the ssevention Of the sale OF impure
and diseased meats.
Speaker Cannon is stcnding squarely
with Mr.. Wadsworth. He is from Illi-
nois Illinois Is the home Of the meat
packing Industry OF the Beef Trust.
These last are most important factors
to be considered In forecasting the result
of the struggle.

When they had recovered from their
first at her striking appearance,
she made a second hit by asking them
if they weren't all thirsty, and the
water pail was passed frequently and
with alacrity throughout the day. She
occasionally called on a class for reci-
tation and made a stab at asking
some of the questions, but for the most
part her instructions were confided to
teaching the first reader class to cut
out paper dolls and prick patterns
with a pin on colored paper. She
showed the older girls how to pompa-
dour their hair and described football
games Vividly to the big boys. With
all was she CHEEKY and sympathetic.

beautiful dream to the pupils. When

eager to see this reminder of her for
mer life.
To the %children's delight, the big
car came right into the school ground.
Betty had little spasms of several emo
tons as she saw Kenneth coming in
at the schoolroom door. She gave
him a calm, unsmiling welcome. He
volunteered the Information that he
had Just run over in his machine to
bring her some books and things"

which he was supposed to be erasins,
bold Bobby Green had written:

Rub that out, Bobby. and pass the
water" she said sternly.
While Bobby executed this maneuv-
err, she called a class In spelling, and
gave out only the easy words. After
this recitation, there was a disposition
on the part of the bad boy of the
school to get into mischief.
Pass the water, Hank" she com
manded, believing in prevention.
The teacher and scholars acquitted
themselves with credit throughout the
afternoon.
Its coming!" she thought, as she
| put on her wraps, and noted the grim
look of determination in Kenneth's
! eyes. His air of satisfaction vanished
as they came outside. Several chill

He filled the big green and white
car with r~arturous children. Kenneth
was equal to the occasion, and insist
ed on taking each one to his or her
home before bringing up at the farm.
Betty's heart began to palpitate when
the last child had been delivered, and
she was left alone with Kenneth or
the return ride of five miles. A sec
ond thought reminded her that he new
err talked when he was running his
car. Her security was short lived.
On a lonely cross road the car came
abruptly to a %standstill.

~nervously. II am-so-cold! Let's

He made no response, and she shot
him a covert glance. He did not see
her, as he was looking straight ahead.
So she looked again and again, and
each time she looked, she thought him
bigger, stronger and handsomer. She
made up her mind then and there she

A FLIGHT N

BELLE MANIATES

copyright. 1906. by Daily Story Publishing ca.
Betty never faced anything square
ly. She had long been such an expert
at lodging an issue that she was COM
monty referred to in her immediate
circle of near and lear ones as 1.-The
Artful Dodger." All through the long,
gay winter she had seen her fate in
the shape of Kenneth Page closing in
about her. Every time she danced,
rode or talked with him she left with
a mystic sixth sense that he meditated
a proposal, but her ~elusiveness warded
1t off. A look of determination in his
eyes, as he babe her good night in the
opportune presence of her brother,
convinced her that he would be bad
gered no longer. His look had been
representations menacing-she de-
cided, and his tone ~insinuating, as he
told her with emphasis that ne would
see her again very soon.
Betty was meditative after he had
gone. She didn't want to meet the
issue yet, of course. She liked Ken
meth very much-better than she did
any one, but she SHE'D at an engage
ment. She wanted another summer
and oh, well, she wasn't sure anyway.
She lacked weapons and courage for
an encounter, SO she sought her usual
refuge-1ight.
She breakfasted with the family the
next morning, which was a rare &C.
c%urrence. When the family were as.
sembled, she casually announced her
intention of running down to see Aunt
Lydia at the farm for a few days. 1t
would be SO restful after all her dissi-
patton. She really was on the verge
of nervous prostration, she declared.
To her surprise and relief there was
no opposition to this plan.
different, Betty looked at one of her
elders, or she would have seer a word
less telegraphy of intelligent glances
exchanged.
THAT isn't a bad idea," said her
mother. Telephone Uncle Homer to
meet you"
Betty did some active work in tele-
phoning and packing in order to be off
before Kenneth should be apprised of
her journey.
"She is running away from Ken
neth," sighed her mother ruefully;
but it's only fifty miles to the farm"
She'll stay about two days and one
night" prophesied her brother.
The country in the latter part of
February certainly did not appeal to
Betty's eye for the beautiful. The
snow was nearly gone. and the car
rage wheels crumbled dismally
through the thin, ice-coated ruts in the
road from the station to the farm.
She tagged her resolution, and when
she stepped into the big. comfortable
farmhouse with its o~ld.fashioned,
back-logged fireplace. and was greeted
by the hospitable welcome of cousins,
uncles and aunts, she was more cheer
full.
Lizzie Brooks, the stern-featured.
spinstered school teacher, dropped in
to Aunt Lydia's on her way home. She
was in the depths of despair. She
wanted to go away for a week to at
tend the wedding of her brother, but
she could find no substitute.
"I1l teach school for you for a
week." volunteered Betty, anxious to
burn her ships lest in her loneliness
