CANNON'S PLAN ADOPTED.
House Committee Will Investigate the
Paper Situation-Williams Op-
poses Project.

Washington, April 21.-Under sus-
pension of the rules the house today
considered and adopted the resolu-
ton introduced by Speaker Cannon in
his capacity as a representative, pro-
viding for the appointment Of select
committee to investigate the paper
trust and the general subject Of wood
pulp and the manufacture of printing
paper. The vote stood 1874 to no and
was strictly on party lines.
In explanation of the resolution Mr..
Dalzell Pa.) said it was a matter Of
public note that there had been a
large increase in the price of paper.
Never, lie declared, had there been
such an agitation as had been arous-
ed by the newspapers during the last
few weeks. While there was con-
sensus or opinion as to the increase
there was no consensus as to the cause
OF that increase. 1t was. he said
capable of mathematical demonstra.
tlon that the increase was not due to
the tariff, and he contcndcd that it
would not be changed by removal
Of the tariff. However that may be,
he said, there were those who be-
llcved that the increase was due to
combination or trust and it was nee
essary to get the facts upon which TO
base bill to meet the case.
Mr.. Williams thought the rise in
price was due "both to the tariff and
the combination and the combination
is due to the TARIFF If, he said, It
had been intended to kill the combin-
alton it could have been done by put
ting wood pulp and print paper on
the free list.
Declaring his opposition to thc re-
solution. Mr.. Williams said lie did
not think there would be any real
search for the truth and no real find
III" or reporting the truth. The rcsolu-
ton. he said, was intended solely TO
whitewaSh the tariff as a criminal
against tnc American people with re-
gard TO wood pulp, and "to circum-
vent this Mr.. Herman Riddcr at the
head of the great newspaper associa-
tion 'or the German devil as some
people are beginning to call him-and
get around lc@islating on the ques-
tion.''

DIAL LOSES IN CONTEST.
Ware Shoals Mill to Issue Preferred
Stock-Judge Gage Refuses
Injunction.

Greenwood, April 21.-Another
chapter was added to the already in
teresting fight which is being waeed
among the stockholders of the Ware
Shoals mill today when Judge Gage
handed down his order refusing to
grant the injunction on the motion
made last Saturday for an injunction.
The motion was made by the attor-
ncys for the minority stockholders
and by it they sought to enjoin the
meeting scheduled for tomorrow, a:
which the majority stockholders pro-
pose to issue preferred stock.
This motion was argued at great
length before Judge Gage on Satur-
day and allidavits were read pro and
con to sustain the respective sides of
the controversy. Some time in March
at meeting Of the directors Of the
corporation in Washington it was de-
termincd to pass Il resolution recon-
mcnding to the stockholders that they
issue $500,000 additional stock and
that the stock SO issued be preferred
stock to bear 7 per cent and to be
redeemed at premium. A. notice was
sent to the stockholders advising them
OF the proposed action and the minor
ity stockholders then made the motion
above referred to praying for an in
junction.
Hon. N. B. Dial and other stock
holders in Laurcns and elsewhere
compose the minority stockholders in
this suit and the Reigels are the de-
PENDANTS to the action. The conten-
ton Of the Dial side was that it would
be wrong to allow the issue as pro-
posed since suit had already been
started and was pending by which all
Of the issues between the parties
would be settled. The Reigels contend
that it is the best business policy
at this time to issue the preferred
stock and That it is a question solely
Of internal management with which
the court should not interfere. Aft
davits We're read from Dial and others
in which they said that it had been
understood from the beginning that
there was to be no preferred stock.
The aflidavits on both sides contained
matter which had nothing to do with
the motion, but which was pertinent
to the issues Of the ease now pending.
The return Of the Reigals denied any
such understanding as to preferred
stock and aflidavits were read from
prominent mill men to show tnat it
was the best business policy to issue
the preferred stock at this time.

actnated by the wish to see just what
an Aldrieh or a Fairbanks or the
democrats who deserted him look like.
-
The North American watches the
happenings everywhere. So Gore. OF
Oklahoma, is no novelty. We heard a
year ago and told our readers then OF
the freakish thing that the newest
state was about to do. A boy, blind
from his fifteenth year, talked day
after day TO mass meetings and asked
the people who heard him 10 send
him to the senate Of the United
States.
To as In the calm, conservative,
sedate east, II seemed a circus sort OF
thing for blind man to mount the
stump and tell his fellow citizens
how a woman had come into his life
and ever after had been his eyes.
We, In the older civilizations, grow
somewhat cynical. So when the new,
crude state seut Gore to the senate
we thought that Oklahoma had foist-
Cd on Inclination JefY Davis or a
Vardaman or Bloody Brides
Waite. merely because OF sentimental
sympathy withs blind man and q
woman who had read to him all the
learning that has made him enlight.
ened.
The election Of Gore and the
growth Of Oklahoma We looked upon
merely as queer but inconsiderable
phases OF national development. AL
was freakish and uncouth. But now,
In candor, let 1t lie said that the
blind senator from the west has
opened our eyes.
Whether he comes from the darn
room OF the hospital seeing the green
things growing and the gold OF the
sunlight matters not, SO far as bis
lifework Is concerned. He may still
rest In the blackness to which he u
accustomed, with that one little
woman's eyes his sole link with The
thought OF the world. None the less
