DID THE SENATE SURRENDER? {?
Nelson of Minnesota, Bitterly Bewails
Beef Trust Legislation.

Il shall go home to my constituents
feeling that they will regard me as a
whipped dog" bitterly declared Sena-
tor Nelson of Minnesota, voicing his
protest against what he termed the
abject surrender of the senate and the
president TO the beef trust, says a
Washington dispatch.
The senator was talking on the mo-
tion to approve the conference report
in which the senate has given up
nearly everything to the packers. The
conferees had agreed that the govern
ment should pay the cost OF inspec-
ton and that no date should be placed
on the labels.
Senator Beveridge had spoken, ex-
pressing the hope that, despite these
defects, the bill would curb greed, ra-
pacity and lawlessness of the pack
ers.
II am not so optimistic as he" con-
tinued Senator Nelson, about our es-
tablishing control of the packers
through this legislation. think the
senator from Indiana will have more
gray hairs than he has now before the
Senator simmons of North Carolina
followed. He expressed disgust with
the continuous performance of sur
rendering to one trust after another
in the closing session. He pointed out
that there had been a complete sur
render to the Standard Oil in the mat
ter of the pipe line amendment, and
now in this matter of inspection of
meats, I'VE are surrendering to the
next most rapacious trust in the land.
l want to say that If no other senator
does it, my first act next session will
be to introduce a bill to force the
packers to pay for this inspection"
I'VE have met the enemy and we
are his" said Senator McCumber OF
North Dakota. This assurance that
senators give us that the packers hon
estly want honest inspection is ridicu-
lous, when we stop to think that 1t is
worth 10 to IL millions a year to them
If they honestly wished 1t, and yet they
refuse to pay for it. As to their charg.
ing the cost back on the producer OF
the livestock and on the consumer OF
| meat, it is nonsense. Their policy fol-
! generation has been to make the
traffic pay all it will bear; to pay a:
little as possible for stock, and tC
charge as much as they can fol-
meats"

OLD GLORY.
A Salem Skipper Credited With Civ
ing the Flag This Nnme.

That the American flag was named
Old Glory in 1851 by Salem (Mass.)
skipper named William Driver is as
serted by the Boston Globe. He was
at that time captain of the brig
Charles Doggett.
Captain Driver. n successful deep
sea sailor, was preparing to shape the
briggs course to the southern Pacific.
Just before the brig ieft Salem a
young man at the head of party of
friends saluted Captain Driver on the
deck of the Doggett and presented
him with a large and beautifully made
American flag. 1t was done up in
stops and when sent up aloft and
broken out to the air Captain Driver
christened It Old Glory.
He took it to the south Pacific, and
years after when Old age forced him
to relinquish the sea he treasured the
flag as an old friend.
Captain Driver moved to Nashville.
Tenn, In 1857. and died there in 1886.
Previous to the outbreak Of hostilities
between the north and the south Old
Glory was flung to the breeze every
day from the window of Captain Driv-
er's Nashville house, but when the
bullets began to zip and the odor of
gunpowder to taint the air the old
flag had to be secreted.
1t was kept out of sight inside a
great bed comfortable until February
81, 1862, when Brigadier General Nell

To stop secondhand stores from
buying goods from boys when there Is
evidence that the articles have been
stolen, is the intention of District At
torney Phelps and today an indict-
ment was filed against the members
of one local firm.
Sharon & Eddings are the men in
volved and they are accused OF having
purchased a single harness from two
boys named Temple and Evans when
the circumstances showed the lads
had no right to sell the same. The
harness was taken from Jesse Fail
ings stable by the boys and being new
is valued at $50. The boys sold 1t to
Messrs. Sharon & Eddings for the
sum of s1.75.
After the harness had been located
and the boys part in the trade learned
of. District Attorney Phelps was no
titled and investigated the matter dur
ing the afternoon yesterday. The boys
are both very young in years, neither
of them appearing to be over S or
years of age. This morning Mr. Phelps
took young Evans TO the sheriff's Of
flee and gave him a lecture upon the
error of his ways and Deputy Joe
Rlskelev showed the lad through the
county Jail SO he would know tbs
nature of the place he would be placed
in if he continued to do wrong. The
boy left for home very repentant and
promising to be a good boy in the
future.
Owing to the tender years of the
two boys no charges will be mad;
against them by the district attorney
However, that official was indignant
that secondhand dealers would buy
things from them when everything
indicated the goods had been stolen
Consequently information was filed
against Sharon & Eddings for accept
ing the property.
District Attorney Phelps says this
is by no means the first complaint
that has been made of secondhand
stores receiving articles from boys
who had stolen them and he is de-
termined to stop the practice. While
he does not regard Sharon & Edding'
as being as bad in this respect as
some other stores he holds them al
fault for taking the harness.

That the Pendleton postoffice has
