RUTH'S $4,000 EXECUTIVE MAN.
SION APPROPRIATION BILL IS
PASSED.

OLYMPIA. Wash. Feb. s.
The Pennypacker libel bill was in
PRODUCED this afternoon by Senator
Booth of King. The bill will punish
newspaper owners. publishers, propri-
etOrs and managing editors and will
reach reporters and cartoOnists. 1t
specifies that truth is not libel but
honest mistakes in publishing news
will not constitute defense. Booth
says he has enough votes to pass the
bill in the senate. A feature of the
bill is the owners and managing edi-
tors names must be published by the
papers. The measure is not popular in
the house.
The senate passed the bill by Ruth
appropriatng $4,000 for the purchase
of site for and erecting and furnish
ing an executive mansion. Also bill
by Watson establishing a state fish
hatchery on the Lewis river in Cow
litz county; a bill by Blair for hatch

ton of foods. drinks and drugs and
that canned articles shall be sold at

TO FIX SACK PRICES may
Senate Passes Bill Providing for Equi-
table Apportionment of
Grain Bags.

OLYMPIA, Feb. 5.-For an hour the
senate discussed the price of jute and
grain bags manufactured at the state
penitentiary. Presby's original bill
after several amendments were voted
down, was passed in tbs original form
with the exception that an emergency
clause is attached. The measure pro-
vides that the safe board of control
shall fix the price of sacks not later
than May l of each year but that the
prices so fixed shall not exceed the
cost of manufacture more than 10 per
cent. In reference to this clause sew
eral senator's wanted the bags sold at
cost. The contention that the industry
be conducted On a business basis and
that the state make a fair profit pre-
vailed. The board of control is to ap-
portion all sacks among the grain
growing counties of the state pro rata
according to the quantity of grain pro-
duced during the preceding year as
determined by the state grain in
spector.
Senator Stevenson and others wished
to amend by permitting the sale of
sacks to growers of oysters, prunes,
potatoes and wool as the output will
be needed to supply the grain growers
but this was voted down.

ODD FREAK OF OUR Laws
Wyoming Ranchman Though Resident
Of United States Sixty Years.
Is Yet an Alien.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. s.
One of the oddities of law was pre-
sented to President Roosevelt the other
day by Senator Warren, of Wyoming
in a case that has appealed to the
president. Out in Wyoming there is
a wealthy ranchman II years old who
came to this country as a boy II years
of age with his father. This man is
known to every soul in his community,
has held all sorts of honorable elective
and appointive offices, has grown up
with the great west, become wealthy
and through his wealth has assisted
many persons to get their start in
life. He is loved and honored by
withstanding his life, the offices to
which he has been elected and his high
standing in the community as a level
headed. and presumably just judge has
recently declared him an alien and not
entitled to protection under the law.
Senator Warren holds that the man
is as much citizen as he is, but I'M
fortunately the law says otherwise.
Some time ago this old man, whose
name Senator Warren does not now
care to disclose, filed claim against
the government and in the course or
he investigation it was discovered that
the father of the man did not take out
his papers upon his arrival in this
country, AS he was the child of an
alien the ranchman also was an alien
The courts hold that before he can
have any standing in court in this par
ticular case he must take out his first
and second papers and declare his in
tentions of being a citizen and go
through the procedure prescribed for
newly arrived immigrant. or he will
not be allowed to prosecute the claim
against the government.
"Of course said Senator warren
"the matter can be fixed up in some
way. and will be, without delay, but
this case nicely illustrates one of the
oddities of law. I laid the matter be-
fore the president and he believes as l
do that it is a vry odd situation.

of this he is always cold He rarely
contracts a cold and possesses a hearty
appetite. He sleeps under eight blank
cts a number of quilts and does no:
take off his clothes. Notwithstanding
this he is none too warm. Whlle at
home his gas bill is in the neighoor-

from place to place in search of the
competence which would allow him 10

Meanwhile the patient little woman

young brood. She was a talented mu-

lie determined to come to Des Moines
and seek them out.
1t was two weeks ago that he ar
rived here and met his former wife af-
ter a separation of five years. They
happened to pass each other on the
street. and recognition was mutual.
They talked of the past and the many
things that had occurred since their
separation. Rogers told how he had
been persistently followed by bad luck
but avoWed his determination once

Mrs. Sharman told of her long pa
