Chicago, April 13.--At the conc,, sion of a day of conferences betwoa. representatives of the opposing jntar ssts of the Christian Catholic cbpro. the statement was made at midn,sh. that the whole controversy wnnla probably be settled by conciliation Both sides to the dispute, accordina to Attorney Emil c.

TO RESTRICT THE JURIsDIC-
 TON.

Some time ago Senator Bailey said that when Congress was through with the discussion of the rate bill there would be no doubt in any intelligent mind that Congress had the power to prevent interlocutory decrees by what are called Congressional courts. Mir. Bailey made good beginning in the speech he deliv- cred Tuesday. His contention was that the courts in question derive their power from Congress, not from the constitution direct, and for that reason Congress had the power to restrict the jurisdic- tion of those courts. That cer- tainly seems logical. And Mr.
 Bailey, aside from his argument in this case, is recognized as one of the best of constitutional law yers, not excepting Senator Knox, who is not of Mir. Bailey's way of thinking on this point. In
 view of Senator Bailey's position,
 which is an argument for the amendment he has offered to the Rate bill, it is especially interest ing to note that the President has expressed his approval of that amendment. It is well known that the President wants to see the
 Rate bill so framed-if 1t may be made constitutional at the same tune -that the intermediate courts cannot issue injunctions staying the orders of the Inter. state Comm srce commission pend- | tug final decisions. And that is precisely what the Bailey amend.
 meut provides. And it was on
 this especial point that Senator
 Rayner of Maryland made his
 eloquent address a short time
 ago. Kansas Ci.v Star.

"LlttIe Bo Peep" Revised.
Jake H. Harrison.

Jake H. Harrison. Little Bo Peep quit tending her
 sheep,
 And went to picnic one day; She had gay time, for the weather was prime,
 And the lads and the lasses were gay. But while she was gone a cyclone came And scatter'd her sheep all about; And when she got back, she cried: ''Oh, alack
 This sheep-tending racket's played
 out r She said then, and laughed; 'T'll get
 me a graft
 Of some kind, and go to a town guess I'll sell books, like some other
 crooks
 Have done, when their luck was
 down. But then don't know that I'd have
 any show,
 For I'm from the country you see; And though it's pity, in any great
 city,
 There'd be lots of danger for me-" But as she thus spoke, came a young
 farmer ''bloke,'
 Who had danced with her at the
 picnic, And he, right then and there, courted
 her on the 4'square,
 And they got up wedding right
 quick. And, they say, she tends now pig and COW, Makes bacon and butter to sell, And as housewife leads nice happy life And tends to her babies as well. There are others, we know, who should as did "Bo," Who are wanting to come to the town, And enter the strife of the strenuous life,n In which, oh ! so many, go down, But they had better stay, from the
 cities away This is first rate advice we are giving They will do far less harm, to remain on the farm, And raise babies and pigs for living. Farm and Ranch.

ASK ARBITRATION.
Southwestern Operators Will Request the President to Appoint Commission

Kansas City, Mo. April l3.-With the exception of seven members who have been dropped for signing the scale demanded by the miners of the Southwestern Coal Operators associa- ton. every member of the association was present at the meeting held ill the Coates house club rooms Wednes- day, at which the matter of settling the strike was discussed at length. The result of the meeting was the adoption of resolution requesting President Roosevelt to appoint coIa- mission of arbitration to investigate the entire matter, It's findings to be binding upon both sides. Another resolution authorized President w. C.. Ferry to go to Washington at the earliest possible date and present the resolutions to the president in person.
 Though the Missouri district miners are meeting here in convention, simul- taneously with the operators, there were no overtures or exchanges what ever between the two bodies. The miners did not say they wanted to arbi- trate or would abide by an arbitration commission. They did not ask for any conference with the operators, nor did they present any ultimatum or other terms. In fact, the two bodies might have been meeting at the North and South poles. respectively, from the icy indifference of each to the other.
