To DispIace American Meats.

LONDON, Feb. 19.-The war Office is
taking steps to ascertain the posi-.
bility of obtaining for the British
army larger supplies of canned meats
from Australia and New Zealand, so
that the contract with the American
packers may be reduced.
When the government was ques.
toned in the house of commons this
afternoon whether the colonists could
not be given the first chance to obtain
the contracts, Mr.. Buchanan of the
secretary of wars Office, said that, in
anticipation of an increased demand
and in view of the stories regarding
American canned meats last summer,
it was the governments desire for a
wider area of supplies and a request
had been sent to Australia and New
Zealand to report on the methods of
packing houses there and the capacity
of those colonies to furnish canned
meats.

Appropriations Exceed a Billion.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l.-Appropri.
ations aggregating S104, 137, $50 are
carried in the bill providing for the
sundry civil expenses of the govern.
ment in 1905, reported to the house by
the committee on appropriations. The
amount carried in this bill for 1907
was Sill, lag, 1884.
The appropriation for isthmian ca
nal construction is 1924, 879, 900. For
this purpose s24, 456, Ais was appro.
pria.ed last year. The next largest
item is an appropriation of l4,254,.
752 for the construction OF public
buildings, including marine hospitals
and quarantine stations.
Mr.. Tawney startled the house as
he told to what lengths the appropria-
ton. for the congress had gone, and

For Postomce Expenses.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2O.-The post
Office appropriation bill, the largest
ever reported by the committee on
%postottices and post roads, pas sed the
house today.
All the provisions relating to in
creased pay, affecting 80 per cent. OF

An amendment by Mr.. Crumpacker
of Indiana, fixing at $3.50 q year the

Butte Miners May Strike.

BUTTE, Feb. 19.-The question of
whether the Butte miners are to ask
for a 81 wage scale is to be decided by
vote next Monday. At tonight's meet.
ing judges and clerks to handle the
ballot will be appointed. The matter
will be presented in the light of an
amendment to the constitution which
now provides that 49, 0 a day shall be
the minimum wage scale.
The miners as a union took NO cog.
nizance of the raise of % cents made
by the mining companies last fall. If
the union votes for a 81 day the time
set for the new scale to go into effect
will be May l.
To make ven a close guess as to
how the miners stand on this wage
scale question is almost out of the
question, as barely one per cent. of
the entire membership of the union at.
tended the meetings. However, it may
be said tn at the old timers and others
in close touch with large bodies of
underground workers feel that the de-.
cision will be for a raise.
The miners are satisfied that with
copper above twenty cents they are
entitled to al least ST. a day if the COM
panies found it possible to pay $3.50
when copper was selling for half as
much and at the same time declare
dividends.
1t is currently reported that the
present lockout has been forced on the
printers at this time to influence this
coming vote of the Miners union.
The logic of this, however, is not ap.
parent, when it was the Pressmen's
demand for more pay that precipitated
the trouble in the newspaper Offices.
Other groundless rumors are as
prevalent here, in fact, the story tina,

the Amalgamated company, had tele'

raise to 81 gained wide circulation

that the Miners union would not sup

Vast Area Of Forest Reserves.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 21.-Discussing
the appropriations for the forestry
bureau in the agricultural a%ppropria.
ton bin today, Senator Clark. of
Wyoming, said:
"Ihe constant tendency of the bu.
reau Of forestry has been to reach out
and gather to itself land and power
never contemplated by congress.
Such procedure is detrimental, in.
jurious and destructive to the interests
Of the various parts of the country in
which the reserves are stu lated.
"When, 10 1891, congress authorized
the president to create q forest reserve.
no one ever contemplated that, in
this brief time, 200, 600 square miles Of
land should be set aside and closed to
settlement.
1.-THE area of forest reserves Is now
as large as the whole of New England,
with the states of Pennsylvania, New
York and Ohio, amounting to 127 ,000.-
600 acres. 1t 10 proposed, in this
bill. to withdraw 400, DOC, 900 acres
more of the grazing lands Of the coun-
try and place this vast domain under
the authority Of the chief of the fores-
try bureau. This is giving more do.
minion and power to n man than is
held by any individual on earth, king
or %potentate.
"Talk about your lumber barons!
Where is the man, except the chief of
this bureau, who has under his con.
troll l27 ,0OO, 900 acres Of timber land?
He can sell the timber to whom he
pleases, at the price he selects and in
snch quantities as he may desire, and
without being responsible to anyone.
81 say the forest reserve is being
made the damnatiOn of the country.
The time has come when a halt must
be called. II has been impossible for
us of the west, who are affected by
these reserves, to place before the east
our proper attitude, for the mar who
raises his voice against forest reserves
is at once denounced as a CRATER and
a timber baron. He is at once pill
loried in the press as a despoiler of
the public domain"

Great Northern Gave Rebates.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The federal
grand jury today indicted the Great
Northern Railway company. on
charges that, in 1904, it paid $4,000
in rebates on sugar shipments to l..
Nj. Palmer, traffic agent of the An.
erican Sugar Refining company.

ment charges that s4,554 additional

Valley, the New York Central and the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroads; the rate of the last named

Steamship company and the Great
Northern Railway company, whereby
sugar was transported from New
York city and Boston to Sioux City,
Iowa, at less than the published tariff
rate.
The latter, the Indictment charges,
was So cents per 100 pounds, but
through an agreement alleged to have
been made by A. w. Kake and A. w.
Steel, as agents of the Great North
ern company, and L. NJ. Palmer, as
agent of the American Sugar Refining
company, it is alleged, the refining
company was granted a through rate
on sugar between the places named OF
80 cents per 100 pounds.
It Is understood that the general
counsel of the Great Northern has
been notified of the Indictment. 1t is
reported still nor indictments will

Would Improve Moral Tone.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20. - Equipped
with buckets of boiling a and bags
OF feathers, 200 wealthy citizens of
Montclair, N. j.. made an attempt
last night to tar and feather Otto c.
Stenzlaws and Miss May Phillips, in
order to improve the moral tone of
their community. Stenzlaws, who is
quite well'to.do, has been married 25
years. He won q devoted wife, and
excellent mother-a woman to whom
the bankers, the brokers and other
wealthy residents of Montclair &C.
corded the utmost respect and;admira.
ton.
Four children were born to the
couple. The family knew no discord
until a few months ago, when Stem.
laws announced his belief in Mrs.
Parsons trial marriage theory and
proposed that his wife should agree
to a separation, a%greeingsto allow her
an allowance of SIS a week, which she
refused.
Shortly afterward he began appear.
ing public with Miss Phillips and fire.
quently drove past his own house, so
that his wife could see the rival who
had supplanted her in his affections.
The townspeople soon learned that
Stenz!aws had established himself in a
new house L few doors away from that
OF his family. and had installed Miss
Phillips As housekeeper. This was
too much for Montclair. Severa! Of
his old neighbors called upon Stem.

SMOOT MAKES DEFENSE.
Utah Senator Says Mormons Do Not
Practice Polygamy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.--Speaking
in his defense Senator Reed
Smoot addressed the senate today on
the subject of Mormonism. He con-
demned polygamy in the strongest
terms and declared emphatical!y that
he had taken no oath inconsistent with
that he has taken as senator. MIR.
Smoot spoke in part as follows:
"First, l desire to state, as l have
heretofore stated, to the senate and t o
the country that I am not. nor have
ever been a polygamist. l have never
had but one wife and she is my pres.
ent wife.
"There has been O or less pre-
valent opinion that the doctrine of pc.
lygamy was obligatory upon the mem.
bers OF the Mormon church, when in
truth and fact no such obligatory doc.
trine has ever existed. The revelation
concerning polygamy, as originally
made and as always interpreted, is
permissible and not mand atory. As
q natter of fact, only a small percent.
age of the adherents of that faith have
aver been polygamists. The vast ma.
jority of the adult members from it's
foundation to the present have been
monogamists.
$50 far as I am concerned, l for.
mally and solemnly aver in every vote
and action as a United States sena.
tor, I shall be governed in the future,
as l have in the past, by my convic-
tions of what is best for the whole
people of the United States under my
oath, to support the constitution and
laws of this nation.
"In closing let me say under my
obligation as a senator what I have
said under oath before the commit
tee, that l have not taken any oath or
oblig alton, religious or otherwise,
which conflicts in the slightest degree
with my duty as a senator or as a citi'
zen. I owe no allegiance to any church
or other organization which in any
way interferes with my supreme allegi'
ance in civil aft airs, to my country
an allegiance which freely, fully and
gladly give"

RAILROAD COMMISSION.
Bill Becomes Law Without Signature
of Governor Toole.

HELENA, Feb. 20.--1he railroad
and warehouse bill is now a law. The
bill went to Governor Toole today,
who Immediately forwarded it to the
secretary of state with notice that he
would allow the measure to become q
law, without his signature. In a
statement accompanying the Dill Gov
ernor Toole says:
"While this bill does not meet my
approval, it is only fair to say that
the Legislature has made numerous
concessions which are a vast improve
ment on the bill of two years ago.
lone OF the objections urged in my
veto message of the railroad commits
sion bill at the last session was that
the majority of the commission were
made to hold over and beyond the
next general election, contrary to the
spirit, if not the letter, of the consti-
tuition, as applied to elective offices.
THAT objection has been removed
in this bill by making the terms OF all
of the commissioners expire January
l, 1909.
"Another objection then urged was
that the governor should have the
power of removal. This second ob]ec'
ton has been met in this bill by giving
the governor power to suspend any or
| all of said commissioners and APP
point their successors pending pro-
ceedings for removal under the politi-
cal code.
"a third objection urged to the
former bill was under its provisions
the commission might expend a sum
far in excess OF the amount appropri-
ated for attorneys fees, experts etc.,
which under section $50 of the poll.
tical code, the state board OF exam
liners were obliged to transmit to the
legislative assembly as a deficiency II
found reasonable.
"This third objection is also re-
moved by substitute for house bill NO.
Al, which limits the expenditures OF all
officers to the amount appropriated
unless first consented to by the board
of examiners.
"The only other objection urged In
the veto to the bill Of the last session
related to the power aud policy OF the
legislature to make the appointment
of the commissioners.
81 am convinced that sucn a method
of appointment is wrong in principle
and will be found bad in practice. and
canno, therefore give my express APP
prevail to it by signing this bill, but
realizing the demand for e railroad
commission by the people, | shall al
low it t o become a law without my az
prevail rather than interpose a veto
which at best could only serve to vim
dictate my op;uion on y mere matter
of p%Olicy.'
