In recent number OF the Farmers

In a recent number OF the Farmers
Mail and Breeze was published num-
Der OF excellent letters upon the sub
ject of potato growing. There was
general agreement that home grown
seed was better than Northern grown
one writer claiming that Kansas SEED
would outyield the Northern by one
third, Now we had always thought
that IT. was the other way. The big
commercial potato growers of the
Kaw valley growing thousands of
acres, we understand always plant
Northern seed and all have an idea
that Dakota is still O. X.
Once in awhile it happens that
late frost comes jtst as the straw
berries are IN bloom and OF course the
crop is destroyed Now usually the
garden patch is not Of very large
area, and the plants can be protected
by covering with sheets. blankets, two
or three thicknesses Of newspaper or
straw or hay-anything handy. And
SO when along about shutdown the
thermometer drops to 40 or SO, the

the time TO sound the alarm. 1t is

Steamers Patrol Scene of Disaster to
Valencia.


Victoria, B. c., Jan. 25. - The
wrecked steamer Valencia now lies sub
merged and broken, but portion of a
mast stands above water and the feet
OF steamers and tugs have today been
turning their attention to patrollinp
the vicinity with the hope of finding
boats, rats or wreckage still afloat with
SURVIVORS, though the chances are
small.
Ashore, several parties have been
'toiiing over most arduous trails, some
carrying succor to those who were
washed ashore, others securing the
rugged rocks of the shore line seeking
for any survivors that may have
reached shore and be lying hungry and
helpless, and others are engaged in the
melancholy duty of recovering bodies.
Of the total company of l54, but 33
have been definitely accounted for, and
three men, believed to be other sur.
vivorss were seen on shore from the
whaling vessel Orion, near the wreck,
huddled about fire. Six survivors
have been taken up on the Salvor
nine, most of them SO badly cut up and
bruised, without food, and 30 overcome
that they could not stand, much less
walk, are still camped at Darling
Creek a telegraph hut. and 1s others
were picked up by the City of Topeka.
With the three seen from the Orion,
a mile and half from the wreck, add
ed, the survivors total So, leaving a
death list OF ll9 persons. Not woman
or child is among the saved.
Scallt hope is entertained by those
on beard the patrolling steamers that
any others will be recovered, for the
doctors on rescuing tugs say the limit
of human endurance will have been
passed before that time.

HEPBURN STRIKES SNAGS.
Arouses Antagonism That May Kill
Pure Food Bill.

Washington, Jan. 26.-The pure food
bill, that had fsir prospect of passing
the senate week or ten days ago, may
find rough shedding before it gets
through. Senator Hepburn, who has
the bill in charge, made an able pre-
sentation of his case when first he call
ed it up for consideration; he met all
objections and did it in friendly way.
But several times since, when the sem
ator has brought the bill before the
senate, he has made unfortunate re-
plies to criticisms, and has aroused an
tagonism. The senate cannot be driven (;
no senator can compel the senate to act
in accordance with his wishes. 1t is a
case where more votes are caught by
sugar than by vinegar. This fact has
apparently escaped the attention of Mr..
Hepburn.
Indeed, the junior Idaho senator, in
talking with his colleagues, has stated
boastfully that he does not propose to
bend to the managers of the Republi-
can party in the senate; he will not
obliterate his individuality, but will
assert himself, and by sheer force put
his pure food bill through. This is an
unfort-n nate attitude, for once the SEN
ate becomes satisfied that Mr.. Hepburn
proposes to ride over it rough-shod, and
drive bis colleagues into line, just that
soon the senate will demonstrate that
the power of single senator in legis-
lation is very small, particularly if be
be comparatively new senator. I'm
less Mr.. Hepburn changes his attitude
and Islands in" with the leaders be
will not get his bill through.

IN THE NATIONAL HALLS OF CONGRESS

now under consideration by the house
was the net result OF today's session.
Innumrable amendments seeking to
perfect the bill as to canal ground pur-
chases, purchases of coal for the navy,
etc., consumed time in discussion, hut
met defeat when vote was taken.
When the session ended, about half of
the bill had been considered. 1t will
be laid aside tomorrow, when the state
hood bill is to be brought in and to
have the right of way until disposed of.

Washington, Jan. 20. - The cry of
graft raised i'll the house Of representa-
tives this afternoon caused tie defeat
of an amendment to an urgent deficien-
cy bill apppropriating $4,000 to sup
ply an express deficiency in the fund
used for the payment of transporta-
tion charges on silver from the sub
treasury to trade centers. The amend
ment was proposed by General Kiefer,
Rep, and was opposed by Representa-
tives Tawney, Mimi, Smith, Ia, and
Hill, Conn. Representative Hill raised
the point of order against it. He lost.
Hill charged that the appropriation
was species of graft for the express
company. Smith joined in the declar-
alton that it was no longer necessary
for the Federal government to continue
the appropriation, and that if the
transportation of silver was not made
so profitable the coin would remain in
circulation longer.

Washington, Jan. 20.- Murmurings
are heard in the senate of possible re-
volt by the beet sugar men against the
Philippine tariff bill, taken up today
by the committee of Philippines for
consideration. The opposition of the
beet sugar industry to the Cuban re-
ciprocity treaty developed strength
among the Republicans of seven votes.
This was enough to defeat the rati6ca-
tion, two-thirds vote being necessary.
The same strength could not defeat the
Philippine bill, which only requires a
majority.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The question
of regulating railroad rates took prac-
tically all of the time of the senate to-
day, Notwithstanding that no bill with
that end in view has been reported
from the interstate commerce commit
tee. The discussion of the subject was
in connection with Clary's speech, AL
drich, Foraker, Bailey and Newlands
being the principal participants in adj
dition to Clay himself.
Clay advocated the passage of bill
which would give the Interstate Com
merce commission power to regulate
rates, when complained of, and said
that, if there was no legislation along
that line, the country might count up
on agitation of the question of govern
ment ownership. In that connection,
he referred to the large vote given Mr..
Hearst in the late New York municipal
election as an indication of the poplari-
ty of municipal ownership of public
utilities.
Washington, Jan. 22.-With a point
of order pending, the eight-hour clause
of the Panama canal item in the urgent
deficiency bill was buffeted about in
debate during the greater part of to-
days session of the house. The debate
was general and the point of order
which will be made by Hogg of Colo
rado, or by Williams, the minority
leader, can only be made when the sec
tion is considered for amendment.
While the eight-hour provision OF
the Panama part of the bill is what is
objected to most strenuously, speeches
were made for and against the admins
tration's canal policy. Williams, the
minority leader, declared the work of
digging ought to be done by contract.
De Armond, Of Missouri, Immediately
contended that this could not be done
successfully, and Burton, Of Ohio, urg-
ed that congress should scrutinize APP
propriations. Hepburn, of Iowa, urged
the necessity OF Capitalization in re-
sponsibility, and wanted the president
held responsible for the work.

Tuesday, January %.

Washington, Jan 23.-For more than
three hours today Spooner occupied the
time of the senate in explanation and
defense of the course of the admins
tration relative to the Moroccan con-
ference at Algeciras, Spain, and in con-
nection with Santo Domingo. The
speech was delivered to crowded GAL
leries and to a we'll filled senate, ard
received careful attention throughout.
1t was in the main response to the
speeches of Bacon and Tillman, and its
purpose was to justify the presidents
acts in both the matters under discus
sion.

Thursday, January 25

Washington, Jan. %. - The house
passed the statehood bill according to
schedule today. The Republican oppo-
sition spent its entire force yesterday
and no effort was made to defeat the
bill on its final passage, only 99 of the
insurgents" voting against it. The
bill passed by the vote of 1914 to $50.
The debate which preceded this vote
began at IL o'clock and was practically
featureless go far as any hope was en-
tertained of changing the measure in
the slightest degree.
The bill as passed provides that Ok
lahoma and the Indian Territory shall
constitute one state under the name of
Oklahoma, and that Arizona and New
Mexico shall constitute state under
the name Arizona. Should the terms
of admission be ratified by the resi-
dents of the two former territories,
their respective state constitutions
must contain clauses prohibiting the
sale of intoxicating liquors and plural
marriages. The constitution of Arizona
must prohibit the sale of liquor to In
dians forever and that of Oklahoma for
q years. There are many other stipu-
lstions concerning schools, courts and
political subdivisions Of the proposed
new states.

Washington, JAN "a. - When the
smoke Of the liveliest legislative battle
of the session had cleared up in the
house today, Speaker Cannon and his
organization were in complete control
and the joint statehood program of the
administration had been adopted.
Previous to the vote the debate on
the rule had proceeded under high ten
sion. The speeches were short but
the word uttered were hot and full of
sing.
The rule adopted provides that the
bill granting statehood to Oklahoma
and the Indian Territory as "Oklaho-
ma" and Arizona and New Mexico as
"Arizona," should be debated until
O'Clock tomorrow and then voted on
without opportunity for debate. The
house adjourned at 5 80 o'clock, after
agreeing to meet at IL o'clock tomor
row.
Washington, Jan. "a. - Mr.. Lodge
today presented in the senate the pol
icy of the administration in the matter
of the Algeciras conference over the
Morocco and also with reference to
Santo Domingo. He defended the
course of the president in both in
stances, contending that our represent
alton at the Moroccan conference was
essential to the protection of American
commercial interests and that only by
the course pursued in Santo Domingo
could foreign nations be prevented from
soizing the custom houses of that coun-
try and securing position there which
might threaten the approaches to the
Panama canal.
The new age., 1906-01-27

Washington, Jan. 25. - The foreign
affairs of the United States continued
to hold the attention of the senate to-
day, the Moroccan and Dominican mat
ters being Immediately at issue. Money
was the principal speaker and he talked
for over two hours in opposition to the
course of the administration with ref
erence to both Santo Domingo and Mo-
rocco. He contended that there was
danger of becoming involved unneces-
sarily in the affairs of other countries
by participation in the Algeciras con-
ference and that this country was not
sufficiently concerned with the conduct
of affairs in Santo Domingo TO justify
our course in that island. He also took
the position that the president had
transcribed his authority there. Hey
burn spoke in support of the annexa-
tion of Santo Domingo.
