utes the house passed on 62S of these
private pension bills. or an average
of nearly bills per minute. This
record never was approached before.
There is a decidedly strong possi-
blllty that Senator Smoot. of Uutah,
will not be ousted from the United
States senate. From present indica-
tions the chances are favorable for
vote permitting him to retain his
seat. His fellow members have tenn
porized with this question for many
months, fearing to champion his
cause and being equally loath to vote
against him. Driven into a corner
now, however. a number of sena-
tors who hitherto have kept their
hands off are coming out boldly into
the open and declaring his right to
retain his official toga. Senator
Hopkins this week made a powerful
speech In denfense of Mr.. Smoot, in
which he questioned the right of the
senate to pass upon the Utah men,
ber's case. He declared that sena-
tors are not federal officials TO the
extent that the senate can pass upon
their qualifications or can lmpeach
them for high crimes and misde.
meanors. He cited as a precedent
the case of Senator Blount. of Tenn.
essee, charged with reasonable cor
respondence with n foreign nation
more than one hundred years ago.

BAKER
COUNTY
MURDER

Baker City, Jan. 1S.-The Heral.
says the county OF Baker will spend
a small fortune in the trial OF Alex
Widdowson and Ira ]. Brown upou
the charge OF numbering Willard
Moody, Is evident from the list OF
witnesses that have been subpoenaed
by state and defense in the case
that comes up for trial on Monday
morning. No less than 81 witnesses
have been subDoenaed for the state
alone, while those wanted for the de-
Tense of Widdowson and Brown,
make a total OF 20 witnesses who
will give evidence in the case.
Based upon the number OF wit
nesses called. the expense OF the case
through each day of the trial cannot
be, II is estimated. less than $175.
There will be days. however, when
the cost will run much higher than
that sum.
Each Of the rs witnesses Will re-
ceive $500 per day for his services
while in attendance upon court. This
In itself will cost the county about
$3.50 per day, while a jury each day
OF the trial will add S24 20 that
sum, and two bailins necessary, each
OF whom receives $500 per day. will
bring the daily cost, exclusive OF the
judges salary. which goes on just
the same, is $3.50.
Judge Smith estimates that the
trial of Widdowson alone cannot be
completed in less than five days,
and the attorneys are doubtful II the
case can be tried in a week. The
Brown case will occupy from three
to FIVE days time.
One the first day OF each trial the
costs will run heavy. There will be
great difficulty in securing jurorors
who have not heard Of the case or
discussed 1t. and II is estimated that
no less than so jurors will be exam
ined before the final panel of 12
men will be completed. This means
about 500 for jurors on the first
day OF each trial.
Mileage WIN BE Heavy.

NO REVISION OF

hOmeSteader Forced to Suf-
fer Because Of Deadlock
at Washington

WASHINGTON, d, c., Feb. g.
There will be no revision of the land
laws at this session, neither will con-
gress pass Senator Carriers resolu-
ton overthrowing President Roose-
velt's order suspending all public land
entries until they can be examined on
the ground by a special agent, and at
the same time the senate will refuse
to increase the appropriation for spec
ial agents. to facilitate these entries
The consequence is that there will
be unprecedented congestion In the
land Office and the interior department
and the entries now pending may not
be patented for years unless some re-
lief is offered by the next congress.
The presidents order was intended
to force congress to SO modify the land
laws as to minimize the chances for
fraud. but the house public lands
committee Is packed against this
proposition. making legislation i'm
possible. The settlers will suffer in
consequence Of this deadlock.

that memorable month at Hartville in

mended to me by friend, where
could obtain absolute rest and quiet.
am lawyer by profession and
1t was after working hard on an i'm
portant suit that l decided to take
much needed rest
1t was while reading in a shady spot
under wide spreading oak that first
met Miss Lee, as she called herself.
She was dressed in a pink cotton
gown, such as is often worn by farm
ers' daughters, but the rest of her
attire seemed to contradict ones first
impression. Her face was completely
concealed by thick gray veil, which
was so arranged that not even stray
lock of hair was visible. She had
come to the same place to spend a
few quiet hours over a novel, Here
we spent many pleasant afternoon,
but try as I would 1 could learn little
of my mysterious acquaintance. She
always appeared in a pink cotton
gown and closely yelled as when had
first seen her. Before long | discov-
cred that it was more than a feeling
of friendship that 1 harbored for her,
and notwithstanding the fact that [
had never seen her fac, and her
seemingly distant ways, I had about
fully made up my mind to declare my
passion to Miss Lee and ask her to
marry me. Then one day as the end
of my vacation was drawing near she
suddenly disappeared. AS l ap-
preached the familiar oak tree l saw
something white fiuttering on it's trunk,
and drawing near / discovered it was
note pinned to the bark. 1t simply
said she was going away and wanted
to thank me for all the kindness 1 had
shown her and the pleasure she had
experienced from our visits. There
