Grim Reaper Has Been Active
 Since Adjournment
BUSINESS AWAITS MESSAGE
Opening of Houses Witnessed By Ami mated Throng, Which Filled Galleries to Their Capacity.
 Hundreds Disappointed.

Washington. December 3.-The Fifty ninth Congress began it's last session at noon today. It took the Senate fifteen minutes to arrange its preliminaries and the House an hour.
 The Senate received from President Roosevelt a long list of appointments for it's confirmation, and in an executive ses- sion of nineteen minutes decided that as the nominations had been received before the body had been organized formally, to make no combinations until the Presi- dents annual message had been received, and the session fairly started. Senators Penrose of Pennsylvania and Foraker of Ohio came forward with reso- Iutions of inquiry in regard to the dis charge of the negro troops of the Twenty fifth infantry. One was addressed to the President and the other to the secertary of war. After the ripple of surprise had passed and Vice President Fairbanks had suggested that it was unusual to transact any business until the Presidents mes- sage had been received the resolutions went over" by unanimous consent. Senator Dupont of Delaware took the oath of office.
 The opening of the houses was witnessed by an animated throng which filled the galleries to their capacity. Hundreds went away disappointed in not gaining adnlis- sion to witness the session of the Senate or the House.
 Not in years has larger number of members-elect of the lower house of Congress presented themselves at tue speakers desk to take the oath of O flee. Death has been unusually ae among the membership during the c days of the last session and the be of the present, and Chaplain Co ingly called the attention of the grim reaper during the adjournment.

TELLS OF SOUTH'S TASK

Washington, December s.-(Special) )- Arguments in the case of J. F. Shipp et al before the United States supreme court for contempt may be reached as early as tomorrow. Judson Harmon, Che at torney for shipp. today filed his brief in the case. He in part says:
 "The people of the south are struggling with a task, the like of which was never known before It Is one which nobody but themselves can work out and they must do it unaided save by friendly sym pathy. The proyoeations for attempts dt irregular justice, which are too common in all parts of the country, are more numerous and frequent there where ap- prehenson stands at every mans door to quicken his indignation at outrages committed upon the families of his neigh- bors."

Attorney Generals Answer.

zThe attorney general in his argument said: "I feel like the laws delay ale ready, in respect of all cases of this kind, had engendered whatever mob spirit ex- isted throughout the country on account of offenses like this. and if we could have speedy trials. rather than delay them 1t would have a good effect on the public with reference to allaying in the future any such mob spirit as gen. orally existed in cases of this kind.
 That this Is true there can be no doubt There may be cases where haste over lapses the precautions with which the administration of justice must always be guarded, but the courts of the states not lack the power or the will to co rect such errors. When to mere error added the sacrifice of rights. secured the federal constitution. this court always been and will always be pr with It's ample power to redress, wh limited only by precautions agains mature or needless Interference state tribunals. to which the cons is as sacred as to itself.

Were Too lIenerNnS.

There are said to be schemes in poll
tics. IL Is alleged that some men in
the hot pursuit OF political game will
combine to accomplish ends, and those
inclined to keep their weather eyes
open insist there are frequently good
reasons tor concluding that the ale
cations ale well authenticated. Here
is Hood River, the home of the red
apple and land of the irresponsible
enthusiast, wanting to be legally seq
regated from the tie that binds it to
its mother, Wasco, and yearns for the
privilege of padding its own canoe.
This la all 1t asks, but some insldious
enemy has begun to agitate the estab-
lishment OF normal school at the fa-
nous little valley, for the purpose, 1t
Is asserted by the Hood River people,
of arousing opposition to the county
division scheme. lt is openly said
that 1t is the work of some wickedly
inclined Wasco man to throw discred-
1t on the county division proposition
and thus, Ey asking too much, to not
get anything. II Is the first instance
ON record where Hood River called a
halt when 1t was proposed to add to
It's possessions, and has said, "not
for us" Strange as 1t may seem,
Hood River doesn't want the earth.
IL merely wants Hood River to itself.

TO Establish Heod Biyer Apple Day.

A suggestion that is meeting with
hearty approval has been made by
one of Hood Rivers business men
and consists in sending carload of
second grade or Gull apples to the
poor people of Portland. This gentle
man thinks that the fruit would be
highly appreciated by them and that
Hood River could in no way show its
spirit of giving thanks any better
than this. Ii is pointed out that
much has been said in Portland about
the poor not being able to purchase
apples on account of theiI high price
and that nothing that could be given
them would perhaps be more appreci-
ated.
The plan Is to have all those who
would be willing to give apples to
haul them to the city where they
will be placed in car and sent to
the Board of Charities In Portland
under the auspices of the Hood River
Commercial club. The idea is to
make the affair an annual one each
year by setting aside day previous
to Thanksgiving and calling 1t Hood
=
River Apple day.
We would like to hear fro apple
growers on the question.
