.JAPS BUILO SHIPS
WHILE YOU WAIT
Armored Cruiser Built and Placed in
Commission Within Two Years
from the Day the Keel
Was Laid
Ry Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March ia large
number of American naval officers will
watch with interest the entry into HAM
ilton Roads May s next of the big
japanese armored cruiser Tsukuga.
Their interest is explained by two
facts: First, that the ship with a
speed on natural draught of about %
knots, which is better than any of
our own cruisers can do, was turned
out from a Japanese shipyard by Jap
anese workmen, who are just beginning
naval construction, yet the ship is per-
feet in every detail.
And, second, that the vessel was
under commission and on the high seas
within two years from the date her
keel was laid down in Japan. No such
speed of construction as this has ever
been attained in American shipyards,
and the best British record, namely,
the Dreadnaught, is only slightly bet
ter than that made by the Japanese in
the building of the Tsukuga.

KANSAS SENATOR
IN DRAMATIC ACT
By Associated Press.

by ASSOCldlGu IISoo'
Topeka, Kas., March 12.-One of
the last acts of the house last night
was the killing of an item in the gem
eral appropriation bill of $4,000. provid-
ing for the erection in the Hall of Fame
in Washington of a statue of John
Brown of Osawatomie.
A dramatic scene preceded the demise
of the appropriation. The item had
been introduced by Senator Waggener
of Atchison, and when he learned that
the conferees were threatening to cut
it out he asked the members and en-
ployes of the senate to join him in sing
ing John Browns Body Lies Moulder-
ing in the Grave"
A number of senators took the strain,
and Waggener asked them to follow
him. At the head of fifty legislators
and employees, the Atchison senator led
them first to the house and then to the
conference committee room, and finally
to Governor Hoch's office, the crowd
singing the song at the top of their
voices as they marched from point to
point.

Startling Land Fraud
Disclosures Are
Promised
Government Expected to
Start Re-Entrance
Proceedings
Many Private individuals and Banking
Institutions Which Have In.
vested Heavily Face Sc
rious Problem

BY Associated Press.
PORTLAND, Mach ia special to
the Oregonian from Lewiston, Idaho,
says:
Hints from Boise as to startling land
fraud disclosures at Lewiston tend to
confirm reports from authoritative
sources that the government has for a
year considered the land frauds in
Idaho more gigantic than in either Ore
gon, Montana or Washington, and that
it is the intention of the government to
sift them to the bottom, bring the
entrance proceedings, after conviction,
to secure repossession of the lands
fraudulently secured from the United
States.
This latter step will mean great finan-
cial loss and perhaps absolute ruin to
private individuals and banking in
stitutions which are, or have been, it
is alleged, directly or indiectly con-
nected with the handling or ownership
Of lands said to have been fraudulently
acquired.
1t is known that the few indictments
secured at Moscow at the last two
terms of court are but a beginning
There are, it is said, other indictments
pale of the law men high in all walks
of life and whose names so far have
not been even suggested.
Means Large Losses
The steps to reclaim lands fraudu-
lently secured from the government
will mean losses of thousands of dol
lars to those people. who have ad-
vanced large sums of money on Idaho
lands secured from the government
against which is a cloud because or al
legged unlawful requirement in the first
place.
1t is asserted that evidence has been
secured which, when presented in court,
will prove astounding to the general
public.
1t is the avowed purpose of the gov
ernment to use the evidence as a basis
on which to commence it's re-entrance
proceedings. OF course other evidence
will also be used.
1t is also alleged that the government
will attempt to show by some of the
indictments which it expects to secure
that in running lines for some of the
big irrigation projects the lines We're
incorrectly run for the alleged purpose
of securing lands other than originally
intended to be placed upon the ditch.
The cases, it is said, if proved, and
the government thinks they will, will
spell ruination to many a settler who
has spent his all in the purchase of lr-
rigated acreage.

Acting under instructions from the
city council City Engineer A. F.
Parker is preparing plans to take
care of the waters of the Ogden
river near the Ogden sanitarium where
the river burst its banks during the re-
cent floods. 1t it stated that these plans
will provide for the construction of a
concrete abutment steel bridge at the
point where the river crosses the high
way west of the sanitauium. If the pre-
sent arrangements are carried out the
river will be permitted to run through
its new channel. The old bed. where the
big bridge was damaged almost beyond
repair, will be filled in and small cul-
vert substituted. The river viii be tapped
near this point to permit the taking out
of water for various irrigation projects
that otherwise would be left high and dry
on account of the chOnge of the
rivers course. The expense of
putting in this work will prob
ably aggregate Sl0@J. The change in the
course of the river. it is believed. will
prevent similar troubles in the future.

Says Rates Are Lower.

He said that as the product of the coal
mines is sold E. o. b. at the mines the
matter of fixing rates could not possibly
benefit independent operators, so far as he
could see. Independent operators would
only open mines as a matter of specu-
lation and what the railroad rates were
could not affect them I'm any way As a
matter of fact. he said. there had not
been raise in the rates for fifteen years
but rather reduction.
State Coal Mine Inspector Thomas gave
an extended statement as to the mining
OF coal in Utah. saying there were nine
producing mines in the state, seven OF
them controlled by the Utah Fuel COM
pany i'm Carbon county, and two indie
pendent mines in Summit county. The
only solution he could offer for relief from
the coal shortage was to open more
mines and reduce the grades on the Rio
Grande railroad. The consumption Of
Utah coal mined in the state last year
amounted to about 100000 tons. while the
production was i-S29. 2l9 tons Salt Lake
City consumed ia. $50 tons. 1t required
about Ace tons a day for railroad con-
sumption and 2.Se0 tons day for domes-
tic consumption More coal was shipped
in during the YEAR than was shipped out
The committee adjourned until 10
O'clock this morning.

HOW OUR GOOD OLD GRAND
MOTHERS CURED COUGHS AND
COLDS.


Our g~andmothers had the right idea;
when any one had a cough or cold on
the lungs iE their day. the good old goose
grease and turpentine We're trOtted out
and the chest was plastered good and
thick and a piece of flannel was put
on; Their tea was made of flaXseed, with
addition of sugar. Ecorice and lemon
juice-pretty good stuff, too Why Be
cause the principle was all right.
The writer was talking to one OF the
leading local druggists about this the
other day and remarked that they dldn'
do things like they used to.
The druggist remarked that there was
one firm that mad started on the right
track and had brought the good old prin-
ciples Of our grandmothers down to date.
He then went and brought out a pack
age of the BROMO COUGH REMEDY
and showed the writer. Upon opening the
package the writer found BROMO
COUGH PLASTER and a bottle Of
COUGH MIXTURE. The druggist ex-
pIaired that the plaster was tc put on
the chest tc relieve the congestion On
the lungs that usually accompanied
coughs and colds This lOOsened up the
cough just like the goose grease
did making it easy for the cough mix
ture to dc it's work
The writer thought this a pretty clever
idea and certainly a most practical one.
incidentally the druggist remarked that
the whole package only cost 50. cents, SO
you really get the plaster free.
