Satur day, January u

Washington, Jan. ia vigorous
fight was waged in the house of repre-.
eentatives today over the bill to codify
and revise the penal laws of the United
States with particular reference to Sec
tion 10, affecting conspiracies against
the civil rights of citizens. Smith, o
Missouri, and Hughes, Of New Jersey,
offered amendments having for their
object the exemption Of labor unions
from the operation Of the section when
ever such unions declare strikes or boy
colts. A motion to strike out the
whole section was made by Bartlett. of
Georgia. The brunt Of the debate was
borne by Sherley, Of Kentucky, mem.
Der of the committee on revision, but
he was supported by number of Re-
publicans.
The amendments were all lost, as
was one by De Almond to strike out
section 20, because it conferred on Fed
eral courts in furnishing felonies and
misdemeanors committed under section
10 the authority given to the courts of
the state in which the acts are commit
ted.

RAILROADS TAKE MEDICINE.
Rate Law Accepted With Good Grace
by Nearly All.

Washington, Jan. 7.-More signifi-
can't and important, perhaps, than any
other statement in the twenty first an
nual report of the Interstate Commerce
commission, which was transmitted
today to congress, is that relating to
the attitude of railway officials toward
the new railroad law. In discussion
of the operation of the act, the commits
sion says:
"By railway managers, almost with
out exception, the amended law has
been accepted in good faith, and they
exhibit, for the most part, sincere
and earnest disposition to conform
their methods to its requirements"
The commission adds that it was not
expected that reforms could be brought
about without difficulty or delay, but it
is unquestiona the fact that great
progress has been made, and that fur
ther improvement is clearly assured.
To a gratifying extent there has been
adjustment of rates and of "abuses"
BY the carriers themselves. Methods
and usages of one sort and another
which operated to individual advantage
have been voluntarily stopped and it is
not too much to say that there is now a
freedom from forbidden determinations
which is actual and general to degree
never before approached. AS this pro-
cess goes on, as special privileges dis
appear and favoritism ceases to be even
suspected, the indirect but not less GER
tain benefits of the law will become
more and more apparent.
Since the new rate became effective
on October "a, 1905, the commission
has granted relief in the form of cor
rective orders in many cases. Upon
November 4, 1907, the commission had
rendered decisions in 105 contested
cases. In As OF these orders were made
against the defendant carriers; in As
the complaints were dismissed.

Thursday, January 8.

Washington, Jan. 9.-The introduc.
tion by Senator Hale, chairman of the
committee on naval affairs, today OF
his naval personnel bill proved the &C.
casion for general discussion of nsva
affairs and recent occurrences in connec-
ton with that branch Of the public SER
vice. The Maine senator entered upon
full explanation Of the provisions OF
the measure, together with his reason
for its adoption.
Senator Clay today introduced a bill
authorizing the secretary of the treas
ury to issue $500. .OOO,OO of non-inter-
est bearing United States notes in cir
culation, in such form as he may deem
expedient.~.
Senator Bulkley today introduced a
bill provdiny for emergency currency
issued by banks in amounts equal to
the par value of bonds to be deposited
with the treasurer of the United States.
1t provides that United States bonds,
Panama canal bonds, bonds Of any
state county or municipality Of not
less than $4,000 population, may be
accepted for such purposes.

joint resolution reducing Chinas in
demnity bond, incurred as a result of
the Boxer trouble of 1900, from $245,-
440,77S to $11, ,655,492, with interest
at per cent, payment of the amount
being remitted as an act of friendship
to China.
Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, today

"DRYING OFF" THE MIXER.
Useful Hints On Handling Of Cows
Before CaIving.

In answer to question how to "dry
off" the milking COW, Prof. J.. H. Frand.
son, of Idaho experiment station, gave
the following suggestions:
The trouble with many dairymen is
that in drying up COWS they are afraid
to stop milking as long as the COW
shows any tendency of giving milk.
In many they do not realize that to con-
tinue milking through the entire year
is an exceedingly bad policy. In ordi-
nary cases it is desirable that the cows
should be dry from month to six
weeks. The object being to increase
the supply Of nourishment for the
growing foetus as we'll al enabling the
COW to improve her physical condition
before the time of calving. When it is
thought best to hasten "laying off,"
start by not milking the COW clean.
This will generally decrease the amount
to point where it is safe to skip every
other milking. In about week the
milk will generally be reduced to such
proportions as to justify milking only
every other day. Generally soon after
this it will be safe to discontinue milk.
ing altogether.
The "drying OFF, is most easily &C.
complished when COWS are fed on dry
feeds as much as possible.
There are few persistent mixers
which can be done more harm by q
forced "drying off" than to let them
milk up to calviny, but such COWS are
decidedly few in numbers.

WILLIAMSON TO
HAVE new TRIAL
Supreme Court Finds That Trial
Judge Erred.
Land Office Rules Require an illegal
Oath and Judge Hunt Wrongly
Advised Jury-Oath Denying Any
Agreement to Sell Not Required
When Making Final Proof.

Washington, Jan. 7.-Because the
Judge before whom ex-Representative
Williamson was tried erred in his in
structions to the jury, the judgment Of
the lower court was yesterday reversed
by the United States Supreme court
and the case remanded for retrial.
That the Indictment was correct, that
the admission of evidence was in ac-
cordance with law and that the rulings
of the court were right and proper is
affirmed, but because the trial Judge
erred in admitting certain testimony
with regard to final proof and because
he erroneously instructed the jury with
regard to this same evidence, the whole
case must again 90 to trial or the in
dictment must be quashed.
The Supreme court construes the
timber and stone act specifically to re-
quire entrymen, at the time Of making
application for land, to submit an afi-
davit of good faith, showing that they
have no agreement, actual or implied,
to sell the land upon acquiring title,
but there is no requirement that such
an affidavit shall be made when final
proof is submitted. The indictment of
Williamson made specific reference to
the affidavit required by law, and did
not mention the similar affidavit which
is exacted by the land Office regulations
at the time of final proof. Yet evidence
was admitted to show that various en-
trymen had committed perjury in max
ing such affidavits with their final
proof, and the Judge, in his instructions
to the jury, specifically informed it that
it could return a verdict Of guilty if sat-
isied that the evidence showed such
perjury had been committed at the
time of making final proof. The ad-
mission of that evidence and the in
structions relating thereto proved the
undoing of,the case against Williamson.

Tunnel Open for Traffic.

New York, Jan. 9.-The first of the
series OF tunnels under the waters that
divide Manhattan from Brooklyn or
the one side and from New Jersey or

last night, when the initial passenger
train left the Bowling Green station OF

Cut Rates on Atlantic,

Liverpool, Jan. 10.-The White Star
line today announced reduction in it's
second and third class passenger rates
from English ports to New York and
Boston. This step is taken because OF
the traffic that has been DETECTED from
the vessels of this line by the Lusitania
and Mauretania, and tc the refusal OF
the Cunard company to concede differ
entail rates for vessels of the Baltic
class. The eecond-class fares were re-
duced by from $6 to $3.50 and the
third class fares by from 81 to So. The
Cunard company Immediately said
that it would meet the cut.

Wednesday, January 8.

Washington, Jan. SIN the pres.
ence OF the entire house, Williams, Of
Mississippi, and De Almond, Of Mis-
souri,, whose physical encounter on the
floor just before the Christmas adjourn.
ment attracted general attention, today
engaged in an exchange of amenities
which was generally accepted as pub
lie announcement Of their respective
intentions not to permit their personal
differences to interfere with the cour.
teous discharge of their public duties.
The incident occurred in connection
with an effort by Dalzell, OF the COM
mittee on rules, to get the house to
agree to rule giving right-of-way to
the bill authorizing the codifcation and
amendment of the penal laws of the
United States and limiting general de-
bate to four hours. Several Democratic
members expressed the opinion that
the rule was scheme to sidetrack
other legislation. Dalzell, however,
refuted this.
The rule was passed by an over
whelming majority, despite efforts Of
DeArmond and seven adherents to &C.
cure the yeas and nays, and the house
at once proceeded to the consideration
and reading Of the bill. At the con-
clusion of the reading, which consumed
two hours, the bill was laid aside and
the house again took up the resolution
distributing the presidents message to
the several committees. in order to
permit Gaines, Of Tennessee, to address
the house in favor of an appropriation
for the Hermitage, the home Of Gene
raj Andrew Jackson, near Nashville,

DENATURED ALCOHOL.
Idaho Experiment Station Tells About
Manufacture and Use.

iOanO Experiment OtduOn els HDCu'
Manufacture and Use.
Conditions Affecting the Production
OF Industrial Alcohol in the Northwest,
is the title of bulletin recently issued
by the department of chemistry OF
the Idaho state experiment station.
The purpose Of the bulletin is, as the
author etates, to bring to the attention
OF farmers and others interested in the
subject, the general principles underly-
ing the processes used in the manufac-
ture and denaturing Of alcohol. The
opinion is expressed that people in
this part Of the country will receive but
little benefit from the passage Of the
"Denatured Alcohol Act" unless they
see to it that this alco1ol is made at
home from home grown products. Sew
eral crops are mentioned as being the
ones to which people in the Northwest
will have to look as the most promis-
ing in alcohol manufacture, the most
prominent being potatoes and sugar
beets. 1t is not probable that individ-
ual farm distilleries will ever be put
into operation. The idea is advanced
Of a community still, or a still owned
and operated by stock company, in
which the chief owners of the stock
shall be the producers Of the raw ma
terial. Figures are given illustrating
the relative efficiency of alcohol when
compared to kerosene as source Of
light.
1t will require some time to get peo-
pie acquainted with the uses to which
denatured alchohol may be put, but it
ia confidently believed that there is
great future for this product right here
in the Northwest.
