 offense The Texas senator also made ref erence to the magazine charges that he had been party to an effort to cheat the Indians in Indian Territory out of their coal lands. which would have been successful but for the efforts of Senator Ia.Follette. He then called upon MT. La- Toilette to say whether he (Mr. Bailey) had not co-operated with him in what he OaFollette) had done.
 The Wisconsin senator responded promptly saying:
 q take great pleasure In saying that I conferred with the senator from Texas before I offered anything bearing on the disposition of the coal lands of Indian Territory and that I received valuable advice as to what I proposed to do.''
 Mir. Bailey spoke in praise of the gen. erality of newspapers and magazines, and compared the Cosmopolitan as the out cast of society.
 He then referred to another article which he said had appeared in the New York Evening Journal, a paper bear ing MT. Hearsts name, the day after the article in the Cosmopolitan had made it's appearance.
 Exhibits Hearst's Paper.
 ..rhere 1t is,' he exclaimed, holding the excerpt from the Journal out at full arms length, ''there it is, double col umn of mendacity and malice. and yet the only direct reference to me is that I have voted to give away the public lands to the corporations in the face of record to the contrary"
 He then detailed the fact that the ar ticle in the newspaper had advised its readers to buy the magazine This he attributed to the fact that MT. Hearst had guaranteed $500, 900 worth of the bonds of the magazine company.
 ''Hearst's magazine prints slander." he said, and then Hearst's newspaper ad- vises its readers to buy the magazine" '"

InaotIon Causes Embarrassment.

Officials of the state, war, navy and treasury departments. particularly state and navy, are beginning to find them- selves in, a decidedly embarrassing posi- tion through the failure of Congress to pass the Jamestown exposition bill While the fact that the bill still has a chance of winning out, the fact that Congress has delayed action on 1t till almost the hour of closing, has handicapped the work of the different government departments that have in charge the arrangements to receive and entertain the detachments of the foreign armies and navies which have been invited by Congress to par ticipate.
 For several weeks letters have been pouring into the state department from foreign countries seeking information about the exposition, in order that they might prepare to send their exhibits of warships and sodiery. The officials have been unable to give satisfactory answers owing to the lack of action on the appro- priation bill. as the exposition will be unable to carry out its plans on a grand scale without the promised government aid

BY PATTERSON sTE/SS

Washington, June 27-(spe Q Every effort is now being bende 6 S .djourn Congress Saturday night O.
 By turning back tn IS of the clock so as to make tt people be- lieve that everybody wS on Sunday but the members of Congress we may be able to get through officially at mid night Saturday" said one of the repub- lican leaders. There was a pesslmistlc feeling at the capitol today over the ad- Journment question. The railroad rate bill conferees held a short session. dur ing which they spent most of their time talking over the pass provision of the bill. instead of the pipe line provision, which is really the cause of the controversy. While there was no agreement reached, 1t Is pretty well settled that the rate bill will not be the cause of delay in ad- 1ournment. Possibly as early as tomorrow the bill will be reported and agreed to. Contention Over Immigration Measure
 The main contention Is over the immi- grafton measure. The Senate and House have passed almost wholly different meas Ures which must be reconciled if they are to become law. The conferees are working with a spirit calculated to bring about a successful conclusion. but no little surprise will be occasioned if the present session places the measure on the statute books.
 If Congress should fail to adjourn this week, the attendance of the closing ses- sions will be woefully slim, or else there will be a number of disgrunted and dis appointed senators and representatives.
 The shipment of the congressmans household effects, library document, etc. to his home Is taken by hotel apartment house and other landlords as an unfailing indication that soon they are to lose valuable guests. It's like q big army leaving town when Congress adjourns. Everybody Is anxious to get away the minute the gavel drops for the last time and by the middle of next week 1t is safe to say that very few legislators will be in the capital city.

"A Remarkable Victory for

Under that caption is a re-
markable indictment of the two
hundred and twenty-five or more
republicans who did not vote for

We state the number because
the republican committee claimed
the county by 10 majority
therefore there must have been
that number who were not in
telligent enough to see through
a lie, or who were boozed and

cause they were not boozed and
bodied.
Gentlemen, which spike of the
pear do you pin your faith to?
AS new corners generally stay
with their party ticket the older
residents must be the ones ac-
cused and as the allegations in
volve quite number more than
half of the ublican party in
