Your Henry's fractured, mother dear.
Upon the gridiron sporty;
His feet betwixt the goal posts near,
At fourteen yards he left an ear,
A collarbone at forty.
A doctor now. with loving care,
His cartilage Is lacking;
They say he will not miss his hair,
And nearly all his ribs are there,
Though several bones are lacking.
He holds his thorax with groan,
And says it hurts a little;
His coaches say. In awestruck tone,
They'd not have done it had they know
That Henry was SO brittle.
They say that Henry didn't lack
The talent and the training;
At half he was crackerjack-
You couldn't make a quarter back
OF what there is remaining.
Alas. he had the proper stuff.
Though rather tall and slender;
And though his fate is somewhat rough
lis not because the games too tough.
But Henry is too tender.

HEPBURN MEASURE TO Be RE.
PORTED UNANIMOUSLY.
As Finally Agreed Upon In Committee
the BtII Includes Many ideas Set
Forth In the Democratic nesSure-
Hepburn Expects Immediate Con.
Sideraii0n BY the House.

Washington, Jan. 24.-After con.
ference lasting all afternoon the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce agreed upon rate bill to
he known as the Hepburn bill and to
be reported to the house with the un-
animous recommendation of the eigh.
teen members of the committee.
In the main the bill is the original
Hepburn bill, but number of conces.
sions we're made to the Democrats, and
their ideas is set forth in the Davie
bin were freely Incorporated in the
perfected measure.
Chairman Hepburn was congratu-
lated by all the members of the com.
mittee on the drafting of bill upon
which the two parties could agree, and
the members of the committee assert
confidence that the successful outcome
of their long conference will have
marked effect upon the attitude of the
senate toward the measure.
Mr.. Hepburn and other Republican
members agreed to accept the wording
of the Democratic bill in the provi-
sion for the fixing of the maximum
rate. The amendment which was &C
cepted provides that the commission
shall fix just, reasonable and fairly
remunerative rate, which shall be the
maximum rate
1t was maintained by the Democrats
that under the original Hepburn word
ing the commission was required to fix
the highest of the just, reasonable and
foi ~ ok0c iv,o
were several such rates. Chairman
Hepburn and the Republicans do not
believe there is any difference in the
practical effect of the two workings,
but were perfectly willing to accept
the language of the Davie bill.
The amended bill also provides for
seven members of the interstate COM
merce commission instead of nine, as
was provided in the original Hepburn
bill. Another amendment incerpo-
rated at the request of the Democrats
provides that in cases where no dam
ages are assessed the commission may
simply state it's conclusions and need
not set forth it's findings.
A section of the Davie bill requiring
that the attorney general in appealed
cases shall file the certificate necessary
to expedite the hearing was incorpor-
ated in the amended bill. Another
amendment provides that orders of
the commission shall continue in force
for three years unless repealed.
No existing cases are to be affected
by the bill, and all laws relating to
witnesses and the conducting of hear
ings before the commission are to be
continued.
Mr.. Hepburn will make favorable
report on the bill at once and epxress-
es confidence that the measure will
be considered by the house within a
week.

Prisons Get Low Rate.

Olympia. Jan. 21.-The three big
railroads have at last acted favorably
on the requests of Gov Mead and the
state board of control for special
mileage book for use of guards and
of patients being taken to the state
institutions. The Great Northern,
Northern Pacific and O. Il. & N. have
agreed to issue special 3,OOO-mile
books at a rate of 2ia cnts mile,
which may be used generally for
guards and prisoners. This will mean
a saving of one.siXth in the cost of
transportation, as under the presen}

House PASSES BILL ACCORDING
TO SCHEDULE.
Oklahoma end indian Territory to be
Admitted As Oklahoma, and Ar.
iona and New Mexico Under Name
OF Arizona Vote Was l9@ to
$50.

Washington, Jan. 21.-The house
has passed the statehood bill acc ord
ing to schedule. The Republican OPP
position to the measure spent its en-
tire force previous to the final action,
and no effort was made to defeat the
bill on its final passage, only 63 Of
the insurgents voting against the
measure. The bill was passed by tho
vote of 1914 to $50.
The bill as passed provides that Ok
lahoma and Indian Territory shall
constitute one state under the name
of Oklahoma, and that Arizona and
New Mexico shall constitute state
under the name of Arizona.
Should the bill be passed by the
senate and the terms of admission be
ratified by the residents of the terrific
ries in question their respective state
constitutions must contain clauses
prohibiting the sale of Intoxicating
liquors and plural marriages.
The constitution of Arizonea must
prohibit the sale of Intoxicating H.
quOrs to Indians forever, and that of
Oklahoma for twenty-One years.
There are many other stipulations
concerning schools, courts and politi-
cal subdivisions of the proposed new
states.
Debate preCedes Vote.
Prior to the vote on the bill there
was considerable debate. Basing his
prediction of the great future of Ari-
IONA and New Mexico on the accom-
plishments of his own state, Mr.. Kahn
of California, opened the debate at II
o'clock, and depicted the wrong he
believed was being done in joining
these two territ ,ries as one state.
Mr.. Mendell, of Wyoming, followed
in the same line, as did Mr.. Lloyd, of
Arkansas. The debate then shifted to
the other side.
Mr.. Cole, of Ohio, was opposed to
substituting hills for homes or noun
tains for men. Mr.. Capron, of Rhode
Island, began a speech in favor of the
bill and then said he would yield to
Mr.. Hepburn if he void recount the
experiences of the territories of Maine
and Iowa.
Mr.. Hepburn complied. Three
times, he said, the people of Iowa re-
jected statehood, and when she ac-
copied it was by the barest majority !;
four times the territory of Maine re-
fused to come into theUnion, and her
final acceptance was barely carried.
Should the people of the territories
now in question vote against coming
in, they should not be dragged in.
Several other members spoke against
the passage of the bill. The roll call
was begun promptly at o'clock. In
just % minutes the result was an
nonced.

campaign. Certainly there is no rea-
son why there should be a change this
year in either of these two offices, and
it is not probable there will be.
This being a hold-over senatorial
term, attention is directed to the Of
flee of representative as the highest
one the people can bestow. For this
honor there are several known candi-
dates, and others are being talked of
as possibilities, If not probabilities.
Hon. Lee A. Johnson has announced
his intention of running again. w. H.
Harrison, also from Sunnyside, is an
avowed candidate. w. II. Thompson,
councilman from the Fifth ward, is de-
clarcd to be in the race. L. o. Meigs
is frequently mentioned, and it is said
shat Hon. 3. +. Barges friends are in
sisting on his standing for nomination.
From all these and others who may
vet enter the race, two excellent men
may certainly be chosen, without diff
fieulty in the choosing. 1t would seem
that Lee \. Johnson has the nearest
to a sure thing; he has the advantage
of having been tried and made good.
His record in the last assembly is a
source of pride to the county, and by
reason of it he would be able to ac-
complish greater things in a second
term. Mr.. Harrison is a strong man
at his home in Sunnyside and through
out the entire county. 1t is said he

De Taken to Pen in Few Days.

Joseph Whitley and Orrin Erwin
were convicted at the January term of
superior court and their attorney filed
motion for appeal to supreme court,
but failed to perfect the appeal within
the statutory period. Motions were
filed by the prosecuting attorney to
dismiss the appeals and in May the
court granted the motion and dis
missed the appeal.
BY an oversight the clerk of the SUI
preme court failed to send down the
remittiturs until last week. It was
discovered that the clerk omitted to
sign his name to the remittiturs and
they were returned for amendment.
Whitley is the colored man who was
convicted for killing a white man at
Toppenish in June. last year. and Err
win was convicted for assault with a
rifle upon a young man at Mabton.
The sentences of these men do not
begin to run until the remittiturs are
