70 FIGHT Commission Firms.

To Fight Commission Firms.
| Des Moines.-To fight the commits
sion firms which have combined to
raise the commission for selling live
stock at the big took markets, Iowa
and other western stock men have
formed the Cooperative Live Stock
Commission company. A. L. AmeS or
Buckingham, president of the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association.
has been made president of the new
organization.
The organization was perfected at
meeting held recently in Denver.
1t was attended by representative
stock men from all Of the middle west
and western states. A committee,
which had been at work for some
time, reported on the plan of organ
izat1on and this was at once adopted.
The capital stock Of the company
Is 100000, divided into 10000 shares
of $40 each. The mana cement of the
company Is in the hands Of twelve
directors No stakeholder is per-
mitted to own more than fifty shares
Of the stock. The general Office Is
to be at Denver, Col, AMI commission
/
cago and Kansas City as soon as
possible. The officers Of the company
are bonded to the sum OF $4,000
each. The company is forbidden
from loantng money OF advancing
money in any way on live stock anu
no agent OF officers has the power
to in any way pledge the credit OF
the company.
The commissions charged will be
the same as those in force at the diff
ferent market up to Jan. 1 of this
year, at which time the commission
firms at all of the big cities advanced
their rates.
Meat Producers Will object.
H. G. Wallace. secretary of the
Corn Belt Meat Producers associa
tden solidly declares that the. live
stock men of the west will line W
|solidly against the proposal to pro
h1bit the shipment of diseased live
stock and put q penalty upon farmers
making such shipment. The Corr
Belt asso citation, which has become !
strong factor in Iowa, as well as the
iassociathon Of western livestock men
will use every effort to prevent thu
enactment by congress of an amend
ment to the meat inspection law tx
bring about such AN end. Alread.
steps have been taken to this end.
"The proposal, included in one O
the substitutes to the Beyeridge mea
inspection bill, to impose penalt
upon any farmer or shipper VIII
ships unsound and unhealthful an
mails to market would paralyze tn
livestock industry of the corn belt,
said Mr.. Wallace, simply becaus
the farmer and shipper has no mean
OF knowing VIII either he has in hi
shipment ANNA Is which may be di:
eased."

JUNIOR PROM.

The annual Junior Prom" given
at the college gymnasium last night
in honor of the Senior class was un-
doubtedly the most elaborate ball ever
seen in Pullman. The services of two
professional decorators from Walla
Walla had been secured and their
efforts, combined with several days
work by the Junior class made the
commodious assembly room of the
gymnasium place of dazzling beauty.
The whole effect was in imitation of a
winter scene; the gallery railing and
overhead beams were covered with
fringes of white, representing icicles,

the stand occupied by the orchestra re-
sembled deep drift of snow, while
from over head during some of the
numbers myriad flakes of confetti
showed upon the dancers below.
Numbers of Japanese lanterns half
concealed among the festoons above,
and an immense golden moon gave a
very soft and beautiful light effect.
In the midst of this brilliant scene
gathered the reception committee,
M. R. Klepper, president of the '07
class, Miss Sophie Ormsbee, and the
patronesses, Mesdames j. J. Browne,
VanDoren, Bryan, McGregor, Kim
mel and Andrews. When everyone
had passed in, the grand march was
formed, Juniors first, followed by the
patronesses, Seniors, faculty and the
other classes. At the conclusion of
the grand march Mr.. Fulton and Mrs.
Strong led the first cotillion number,
distributing carnations as favors. For
the next number an immense snow ball
was rolled in, which was broken up
into smaller fragments, and partners
were chosen by throwing the snow
balls. The third number concluded the
cotillion part of the program. The
college orchestra furnished the music
for the entire evening.
For refreshments punch was drawn
up from a wooden we'll curb in &C. the
old oaken bucket. Cozy corners were
abundant and the side rooms had been
fitted up for parlors. The event sur
passed the effort of any previous
class, and in fact was the most brill
liant social event ever held in the city.

WIN FROM U. Of N.
State College Team at Last Escapes
From its Hoodoo of
Defeat

The long continued "hoodoo" which
has cast its spell over the debating
career of the college was broken
Thursday night when the local team
defeated the visitors from the Univer-
sity of Montana. The question was,
Resolved, that aside from the ques-
tion of onstitutionality the United
States should adopt a general federal
income tax The affirmative was
upheld by the visitors, Messrs. Ralph
l.. Harmon, John d. Jones and Law
renee E. Goodbourn. The negative
was maintained by F. o. Kreager,
Miss Sophie l.. Ormsbee and Arthur /.
Morgan.
The Montana boys claimed that in
sufficient revenues demanded a supple
mentary system of taxation, and that
the need would best be supplied by
the income tax which was cheap.
flexible and practicable system, sue
cessfully administered in foreign
countries. The negative denied that
there was need of more revenue, main
tained that the present plan met all
the requirements of good tax system
and that the income tax had been
proved to be not adaptable to Ameri-
can institutions.
A unanimous decision for the mega
tive was rendered by the judges,
Hon. J. T. Buchanan and Rev. u. F.
Hawk of Spokane, and Judge Edwin
McBee of Rathdrum, Idaho. After
the debate reception for the visiting
team was given at Stevens Hall. The
program was added to by the singing
