SUSPECT CANNON OF
HOSTILITY
Reference of Civic Federation
Bill to LittIefieId'S Committee
ExciteS Comment Among
Friends of Measure.

[By Morning journal Special Leased Wire ]
Washington, March 26.--Chairmar
Hepburn. OF the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce call
ed at the White House today and In
conversation with the president some
consideration was given to the action
of Speaker Cannon in referring to the
judiciary committee instead Of the
commerce committee the bill drawn
by the national civic federation and
introduced by Representative Hepburn
to so amend the sherman antitrust
law as to partially exempt labor un-
ions from its prohibitory operation and
to permit the forming of combinations
of capital and traffic agreements be-
tween railroads within certain limita-
uons.
The president is deeply interested in
this bill and has several times in mes
sagrs to congress urged the enactment
Of such a measure. IT was supposed
ny him and by Chairman Hepburn
that the speaker would refer the bill
to the interstate and foreign com
mcrce committee and Mr., Hepburn
marked this reference on the bill-as
it often done by sponsors--When he
introduced it. The fact that this ref
ercnce was crossed off and that the
bin was sent by the speaker to the
judiciary committee, by whose chair
man 1t was committed to subcom-
mittec whose chairman is Represen-
tative Littlefield. Of Maine led TO Il
report that this course Indicated un-
on the part of the speaker
toward the bill And the further fact
that organized labor ana Representa-
tive Littleheld are at cnmity caused
this report to be taken very seriously
to certain quarters
Speaker Cannon did not decide to
send the bill to the judiciary commit
tee until after a conference with Asher
c. Hindes. parliamentarian of the
house. who is the clerk at the speak
er's desk.
Explaining the reference Mr. Hindes|
today called attention to the practict|
Of the housc as embodied in the di-
eest:
MATTERS relating to investigation
and regulation of trusts ana corpora
tions are within the jurisdiction of theI
judiciary committee"

No Need of Suffering from Rheuma

1t is a mistake to allow anyone to
suffer from rheumatism, as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases cure effected by applying
Chamberlains Liniment. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. 1t makes
sleep and rest possible. Even in cases

be used on account of the relief which
it affords. Do not be discouraged
until you have given it a trial. For

While he was gathering those millions. Coburn was matching those 'vultures" by incubator heated by envy, and envy and love are deadly foes But the very rich men of our times are learning that there are several severe penalties that go with the amassing of great fortunes.

He has taught them that happiness lies in pos session instead of effort, and that de velopment consists in acquiring more millions instead of growth of brain, heart and character. He has given them no knowledge of true friendship and unselfish love, and their whole journey through life lies between two rows of "vultures" who are waiting for them to die, or for the wheel of Fate to make them helpless vagabonds. At 20 years of age, all luxuries have palled upon them. and there Is nothing new, fresh, bright and interesting left in life. And they become 'yultures" to kill him dead legally.

blacksmith's tactics picked up in the United States army, where bad horses are plentiful.

 The smith stopped to lift 6 hoof. and Satan, without moving his foreparts. deliberately twisted himself in . posi- ton to let fly one foot. but Brown again escaped by springing aside; this time, however. the smith trapped the fellow and caught his left foot before he had the leg stiffened. There was struggle. Brown slipped q knee un- der the hoof and cruelty pressed down, crumping the leg so that Satan stood

still, while the hot iron was pressed against his hoof then Satan's hoof was released. For the first time he took . good look at the man who dared.
 When the shoe was ready to nall Brown again approached the horse. The same tactics were adopted, except that at the crucial moment Satan, in- stead of merely twisting himself, crouched and jumped forward as far as his halter would allow and let fly his left foot twice so quickly that 1t caught Browns hand each time. By islanders heard the bones crush as tho cruel hoofs struck Browns face went white, his teeth set, and quietly askiug his helper to take Satan's head. the plucky fellow brought the crippled hand to bear the best he could. and, forcing the little sorrel in c corner, de- liberately cowed him by the power of hls eye and hIs nerve and nailed both shoes home.
 When 1t was over the smith was vet with precipitation and almost fainting from pain. He was taken at once to . physician, where his hand was dressed.
 Satan showed no more i'll temper, but walked with his head down from the building, as though he were ashamed.

 Being Tossed Aside.
 In the first days of the republic the Vice presidency was the consolation prize for the candidate for the presi- dency who received the second highest vote. This system, however, insured the election of strong man, under or dinary circumstances, since he was pre- sumably the best mon of the opposite party. Some of the most illustrious names In the early history of the coun. try graced the roster of Vice Presi- dents, and even after the old plan was abandoned and the successful party won all, while the losing party lost all, there have been enough "big" men elected to the second highest office in the government to relieve 1t from the opprobrium of what Mir. Cleveland so felicitously called "innocuous des- uetude."
 The murder of three Presidents with In the comparatively short space of forty years has called dramatic atten- tion to the importance of filling this
 
 office with men of ability. Certainly there is nothing in the history of the vice presidency which would warrant anybody, no matter how "big" in his own State or in his own estimation, of tossing 1t aside as beneath his dig nity.
 Of the twenty-six men who have been elected Vice Presidents, eight, or al most one in every three, have succeeded to the presidency, either by election or through the death or assassination of the President. Adams, Jefferson and Van Buren were elected in the regular course of affairs; Tyler and Fillmore succeeded through the death of the President from natural causes, while Johnson, Arthur and Roosevelt came into the highest office through the assassination of the President-Mr. Roosevelt having the added distinction of having been also elected In regular course

Former Trooper of 11th Cavalry
 Shoes Him After Struggle.
 With eyes flushing, nostrils distend- ed. ears laid back, mouth open and whiskers standing sharply on end, Satan, a vicious horse, gave desperate battle with a brawny blacksmith yes terday afternoon, says the Des Moines Register and Leader. Satan determined he would not be shod; the blacksmith shod him single-handed, but in the tus- sle had his left hand literally crushed Several bones were broken and the smith suffered excruciating pain.
 The name of the smith Is H. w. Brown, a former trooper in Troop D, Eleventh Cavalry, who was discharged here and took up his trade with yro- man.
 Satan is a beauty; little sorrel weighing scarcely more than l,2OO pounds, plump and full of ginger and fire.
 Satan has always rebelled savagely against the iron shoe. His very name was given him on this account. He has never been known to let a smith shoe him without being bound by leath CT straps until he could not move. Brown Is a wiry soldier, erect and solid.
 Satan was led in by a common halter and tied to the ring in the side of the wall. With a great leather apron about his waist, Brown took the shoe and approached Satan. Quick as a flash the horse wheeled and both feet shot into the spot where Browns stom- ach was-but Brown was quicker in re- moving it.

Loren Coburn. a poor old millionaire who is fighting for his estate and his reputation for sanity in the courts at Redwood City. Cal, says: 4 am like many another man who, after acquiring property by his own efforts, finds his relatives sitting around like a lot of vultures waiting for him to pass away and, when he does not go soon enough to suit them, trying some other way of putting him aside" Coburn Is sane enough in saying that his case is not an uncommon one. Many a rich man does not die soon enough to suit either his relatives or a large part of the in- directly interested population at large. Why should riches-the power to do good and to make progress-be concen- trated In an old man lacking in energy and enterprise and without anything else save those riches? Why shouldn't the rising generation covet hoard that is useless and an obstacle to progress
