WHAT CONGRESS DID

If Congress elicits the interesting fact that there were more impor- tant questions presented to and discussed by congress on which the public generally or sections or ,lasses demanded action than ever before in it's history. The aggre- gate of appropriations was great. md when the fiual figures are ob 'aina ble, it is not doubted tha they will exceed those of any previous session in times of peace.
 Standing conspicuously above III other questions with which congress dealt. was the effort to 'ass an emergency currency bill The senate and house failed to ,gree. with the result that a com mission of senators and represen 'atives in congress, whose duty it a to study the question and report tt the next session, was the alter ,ative adopted.
 Numerous bills affecting labor were considered by both the senate md house. A new employers lia- oility law to take the place of that declared unconstitutional by the supreme court, was passed. Other matters of equal or greater impor tance to organized labor failed. These included an anti injunction law. a provision for the exemption If organized labor from the treble penalty clause of the Sherman anti trust law and other amend nents to relieve labor unions from operations of this law.
 Some of the striking things urged npon congress hy President Roose- welt, other than those already men, tioned, and which were not enacted resulted in compromises. For in stance. he wanted a national child labor law. He also asked for the nactment of law regulating child 'abnr in the District of Colum bia md the territories, and the latter bill was passed.
 The construction of four battle hips was urged in a special mes sage. but congress refused to allow hem. approL riation was made for the construction af two battle ships and the policy of authorizing ,wo each year was announced by republican leaders.
 Authority to name a tariff com mission and to appoint experts to gather data with view to the re- vision of the tariff at the next ses- 'ion was strongly advocated. As result resolutions were adopted in the senate authorizing the com mittee on finance and in the house authorizing the committee on ways md means to conduct individual investiga tions.
 The inter state commerce com 'nerce commission won a substan tia victory in the appropria tion Of S35O ,O00 for the establishment of a statistical and accounting depart 'nent.
 An action of great general inter est was the proposition for a sub Itantial increase in the pay of off cers and enlisted men of the army. navy. marine corps. revenue cutter service and life saving service of
 he government.
 Several other bills were passed for the benefit of the military es "a hlishment, and among these was provisiOn to increase the marint corps by what will amount to on. regiment.

WILL NOT HEAR PERRIN

San Francisco dispatch: Dr Edward B Perrin. who was recent. W convicted of conspiracy to de- fra ud the government in the mat ter of filing on timber lands in Te- hama county, made an unsuccess- ful attempt yesterday y 10 present to the Federal grand jury new evi Hence in his own behalf and against Chas. P. Shell. whom he seeks to have indicted for perjury. He ap neared with an application to the foreman. M. J Keller, asking that he and his attorneys be allowed to present for the grand jury's con sideration the remarka ble affidavit recently sworu to by Shell at Flag staff. A. T., which throws a differ Ant light on some of the evidence "ffered by the prosecution at. the trial of Perrin & Benson Perrin and his attorneys consider that here is a sufficient discrepancy hetween Shells testimony in the Perrin Benson trial and the state ments contained in the Flagstaff 'ffidavit to warrant the indictment nf Shell on charge of perjury. but Perrin made no progress in his ef- forts toward that end Friday.
 The letter sent to the foreman of he Federal grand jury Friday is substantially as follows:
 II respectfully request that I be permitted, with Barclay Henley md Judge J. E Harper, my attor- oevs, to appear before your body at 2 o'clock Friday next. to present for your consideration a matter of perjury, involving one Charles P Shell.
 "I ask a prompt consideration of nv request, as from evidence ir ny possession. fear this party is making an effort to place himself heyond the jurisdiction of the United States courts" :"
 On receipt of this letter the grand jury sent representative 'o the ante cha m her to inform Dr Perrin that he could make his ap ulication to United States Attorney Devlin. Dr Perrin answered that he had sent two letters on this sub inct to Devlin. but had received un satisfactory answers from him The grand jurors were insistent however, that he lay his case be- fore Devlin, and allow the first move to come from his office.
 pr Perrin did not try to press
 he matter in the United States Attorney's office. He left the build ing when the grand jury adjourn ed. althouoh he had been given to understand that a final answer would be given him before th' jury dispersed. Perrin declares that he is far from through with he matter. and promises to renew his attempts to get his case before he Federal grand jury. and also before the San Francisco grand jury.
 United States Attorney Devlin Friday afternoon seemed dis "osed to treat the whole matter lightly. He said that. so far as he vas concerned the case was closed He declared that he believed Dr Perrin had heen given a fair and impartial trial, and he believed hat the conviction and sentence justly represented his alleged 'rime.

memory of this most sterling man
Tuesday afternoon, when his re-

it is doubtful if so much respect has
been paid to any other citizen for

Mr.. Wright was one of the largest

state, among whom he had scores of
friends. Coming to Washington
20 years ago and making the Kittitas
and Yakima valleys his home for Is
years, he was known as one of the

Prepare to Make War on the Afro

"Fully half of the Pullman porters

the new lodges of colored Elks, and
the white Elks are bitterly protest

which declares legal proceedings will
be instituted to enjoin the colored
lodges from using the name and SYM
bols of the white lodges and to force
them to eliminate from their order
all elements which would suggest to
the uniformed a connection with tn ;
white fraternity.
THE first step toward a deter
mined fight to prevent colored men
from appropriating the name of Elks
and incorporating colored lodges of
Elks in Minnesota has been taken by
Grand Exalted Ruler John X. Tenter
of Pennsylvania, who has notified
Secretary of State Schmall of ST.
Paul that the grand lodge b. P. o.

will fight the use OF the name by col
ored men, states the report "The
white grand lodge requests that time
be allowed in which to send represen-
tatives to wage the legal warfare

"The clash is precipitated by the
organization of two colored lodges
of Elks in Minnesota, one of whicn
is located in st. Paul and is largely
composed of Pullman porters, col
ored BARRIERS and other colored men.
The first intimation of the birth
of the new eolored fraternity came
when prominent officer of st. Paul
lodge (white), which has 1000 mem
bers, woke up one morning and no.
ticed that the Pullman porter who
was brushing his clothes was wearing
the familiar Elk's tooth charm. He
protested and found that the color
ed brother was a member of a COL
ored lodge and that the colored lodge
was an Elk's organization.
Searching Investigations followed
at once, which developed the fact
that the colored ritual is copied in
part from ideas gained from the

GLAD It DID
So MICH GOOD

Some remarkable stories are be-
ing told about town and among the
country people coming in of this SIM
matism and Kidney trouble. Here
is the recipe and directions for TAX
ink: Mix by shaking well in a bot
tie one-half ounce Fluid Extract Dam
delion, one ounce Compound Kargon,
three ounces Compound Syrup Sar-
saparilla. Take as a dose one tea
spoonful after meals and at bedtime.
No change need be made in your
usual diet, but drink plenty of good
water.
This mixture, writes one authori-
ty in a leading Philadelphia newspa-
per, has a peculiar tonic effect upon
the kidneys; cleansing the clogged UP
pores of the eliminative tissues, fore
ing the kidneys to sift and strain
from the blood the uric acid and 9th
er poisonous waste matter, overcom-
ing Rheumatism, Bladder and Urin-
airy troubles in short while.
A New York druggist who has had
hundreds of calls for these ingredi-
ents since the first announcement in
the newspapers last October stated
that the people who once try il
swear by it,, especially those who
have Urinary and Kidney trouble
and suffer with Rheumatism.
The druggists in this neighbor'
hood say they can supply the ingre-
dents, which are easily mixed al
home There is said to be no bette,
blood-cleansing agent or system ton
ic known, and certainly none more
harmless or simple to use.

WILL TUNNEL THROUGH
HILL NEAR SELAH GAP
Moxee-Sclah Company Plans on I'm.
prOvements Which Are of
Great Moment to Valley

Engineer T. A. Noble, for = the
Selah-Moxee Canal company, has
completed plans and estimates for
tunneling through the hill at Selah
gap, and by SO doing eliminating
four or five miles of fume which is
now maintained at no small expense.
The proposed improvement, if it
goes through, will be completed at
a cost ranging from $65,000 to
100000 and will be one of the
most stupendous irrigation projects
to be attempted in this section dur
ing the present year.
The matter will be placed before
a meeting of the stockholders of the
company about March Is. and will
be thoroughly gone over and voted
on Engineer Mobiles plans will be
kept private up to that time, but
enough has been ascertained to know
that the great tunnel project vii! be
talked over and probably will he car
ried out, as 1t is understood many
of the stockholders favor the move.
The flume costs large sums an
nually for maintenance. Boulders
roll down the hillside and smash it
in various place, and it has hap
pened on number of occasions that
damage has been done to the flu2le
during the irrigating season, ana the
consequences have been Of great int
portance to the water users.
The Selah-Moxee canal waters
land in the upper Selah and Moxec
valleys. The great flume follows the
Yakima river for long distance and
is one of the main attractions to
sightseers along the river.
