JAP EXCLUSION BILL
No Action Will Be Taken by
The Present Congress
On Measure.
AN AGREEMENT is MADE.

Washington, March 2S.-A tentative
agreement has been reached betN cen
the house of Representatives delega-
ton from the Pacific coast and the
house committee on foreign affairs,
by which program has been mapped
out to postpone action on the Japan
csc exclusion bill until the next ses-
sion of congress. The foreign affairs
committee has told the Pacific coast
men that, while it is satisfied the bill
should be passed, it prefers to give
ample time for a test of the executive
steps that have been taken to solve
the japanese immigration problem.
The coast men have argued that by
next December the whole country will
see that the preside nts arrangement
with Japan is effective
The committee is reported to be in
such a frame. of mind on the subject
that it will report the bill for passage

NEW PROBLEM
CONCERNING POLICY
Question Comes Up in Regard
To Imported Foods.

Washington, March 2S.-The ques-
ton regarding the use of sulphate of
copper in imported foods, which is
being debated at the department of
agriculture and by the cabinet officers
who have charge of the pure food law
is raising a new problem concerning
policy in administration. Heretofore
in considering questions of preserva-
tives and cOlOring matters the govern
ment has had to do solely with sub
stances used both in the United States
and abroad. BenzOate of soda. for in
stance. is used far more largely here
tan in foreign countries. and the same
is true of some Of the coloring sub
stances which have been put under the
ban. But in the case of sulphate of
copper peculiar situation exists.
American manufacturers and Gamers
do not seem 10 care what is done with
reference to the use of this dye. They
do not employ it to any extent and the
only persons affected are the importing
grOcers. who bring in goods in which it
occurs. chiefly from France. This
raises in acute form the issue whether
we intend 10 be more or less strict with
reference to our domestic products
than with regard to those produced
abroad

Is Circulating Copies of Re-
cent Speech, All Over the
State of Kentucky.
DO NOT SEE THE IDEA.
of FORMER GOVERNOR is OUT,
WHY DOES HE CIRCULATE THIS
MATERIAL" MANY PEOPLE ARE
ASKING.

Louisville, KY, March 22.-When
former Governor J. G. w. Beckham de-
clared in his recent speech at Frank
fort that he never again expected to
seek an office at the hands of the peo-
pie of Kentucky, he did not say that
he never expected to take any further
interest in politics, nor did he declare
that he would turn down any office if
it were offered him.
The belief of many politicians that
Beckham is to take an exceedingly
active interest in politics is verified
by the statement. made by Democrats
close to Beckham, that between 100000
and s250,000 copies of the former
Governors Frankfort speech were
mailed to Democrats throughout the
commonwealth. 1t is understood that
the work was directed by Percy Haly
the Governors trusted friend, who has
in his possession the name and ad-
dress of every Democratic voter in the
state. Haly is tireless and able pol
ftician. II Beckham is out of politics
entirely 1t is difficult for the pOliti-
clans to see why his speeches should
be sent broadcast through the com
monwealth at this time, with the state
convention only few weeks off.
There is also persistent rumor
emanating from friends of Beckham
that opposition may be given to Ma
tional Committeeman Urey Woodson.
A strong Beckham man recently
made the statement that, although
Woodson's paper supported Beckham
for United States Senator, the Nation
al Committeeman never offered his
services to Beckham during the long
drawn-out senatorial contest, but was
the first man to appear on the scene at
Frankfort after w. O. Bradley's cleo

SHARPENING A PENCIL.
In This Act, 1t Is said, You May Read
Mans Character.

No woman should marry a man till
she has seen him sharpen Il lead pen
Gil. She can tell by the way he does
it whether he is suited to her or not.
Here are a few infallible rules For her
guidance in tho matter:
Tie man who holds the point toward
him and close up against his shirt
front is slow and likes TO have secrets.
He is the kind of man who when the
dearest girl in the world finds out that
there are Others and asks him who
they are and what he means by call
ing on them will assume an air of ex-
cessive dignity.
The man who holds the pencil out
at arms length and whites away at
it, hit or miss, is impulsve. jolly, good
natured and generous.
He who leaves blunt point is dull
and plodding and will never amount
to much. He is really good hearted,
but finds his chief pleasure IN the
commonplace things of life.
He who sharpens his pencil an inch
or more from the point is high strung
and imaginative and subject to ex-
uberant flights of fancy. He will al
ways be seeking to mount upward and
accomplish things in the higher re
gions of business and art. and his
wife's greatest trouble will be to hold
him down to earth and prevent his
flying off altogether on tangent.
The man who sharpens his pencil all
around smoothly and evenly, as though
it were planned off in an automatic
sharpener, is systematic and slow to
anger, but he is so undertaking from a
fixed principle that he would drive a
woman with a sensitive temperament
to distraction in less than six months.
On the contrary. he who jumps ir
and leaves the sharpened wood as jag
ged as saw teeth around the top has
nasty temper and will spank the
baby on the slightest provocation.
There are certain women who can
manage that kind of man beautifully.
however. and if she gets a wife with a
calm. persuasive eye he will come
down from his high horse in few
minutes and be as meek as lamb.
The man who doesn't stop to polish
the point of lead once the wood is cut
away has a streak of coarseness in his
nature.
He who shaves off the lead till the
point is like needle is refined. deli
cate and sensitive. He will not be
likely TO accomplish so much as his
more common brother, but he will new
er shock you and is without doubt a
good man TO tie to-New York Press.

ITALIAN GOVERNMENT

Does Not Want Them to Come
To America.

Naples. March 2S.-Efforts are be-
ing made by the Italian government
to discourage emigration of working
men TO the United States. The crisis
in the United States last fall was
good thing for Italy. The Italian gov
eminent had become alarmed at the
steady outgo of its men to America
and the authorities were much pleased
when the tide turned the other way
last fall, and many Italians returned
TO their fatherland. 1t is the desire
of the government to discourage emf

men who have returned recently have
tended to aid the government in its
plans.

Wall Street is considered the
highest-priced property in the
United States. Several years
ago it sold for $500 a square foot,
and it is assessed by the city at
a little over 81 per square inch.
There are two banks on Man
haitian Island that are open day
and night, excepting Sundays
and legal holidays. Three sets of
clerks and officers in these banks
work eight hours each during the
day.
The city contains 5000 law

clans, $1,000 stenographers, g.
900 statesmen and saleswomen,
1000 farmers, 1 800 undertakers
and 852 female BARRIERS.
Every business day more than
one hundred families, or 500 peo-

There are nearly 100000 fami-

Of this number only a few more

THE News.

It may be said that the News
had a hard fall in the recent po-
litical battle and to be frank it
pleads guilty to the charge. We
had cherished the hope and
courted the belief that the great
common people were at heart for
political reform; that the power
of the mighty trusts, controlling
every article of trade, had been
duly seen; that the tendency of
the times to centralize govern
ment at Washington was plainly
in view and with all these facts
thoroughly known that a change
in party was a certainty. In the
face of such conditions, strength
ened by organized labor and the
country wrestling with h ard
times, coming under Republican
rule, we could see victory, GER
tain victory, only clouded by a
fear that money might over
throw. The cloud proved to be
a veritable storm that swept
nearly every thing in front of it
and we fell, fell from a high
pinnacle and fell hard. Thank
God no bones are broken, and in.
due course of time we hope to be
feeling as good as the average
citizen. But regardless of the
-foss of our choice in the Nation
al contest, there are victories Of
le4 moment to give some cheer.
The fact that Kentucky is back
with a united Democracy to hold
