be traced.
a., oanRon FavOrs Middle West.
The explanation was made today on be-
half Of Speaker Cannon that his con-
trolling motive In selecting the house con-
ferees on The tariff bill had been the ques-
tion of location.
His chief desire was that all sections.
especially interested in the tariff should
have representation on the committee.
Finding mat the middle west had half the
population, half the wealth, half the vol
ume Of production and especially that half
: of the republican representation of the
house hailed from that section, he decided
It should nave larger representation on
the conference than II possibly could have
IL the conference committee had been
composed according to the rule OF prece-
dence among members OF the house ways
and means committee,
II the conference bad been selected ae-
cordipE to that system the Mississippi val
ley country would have been represented
by Mr.. Boutell alone. while the eastern
states would have had four representatives,
including two from New England. This.
the speaker considered would be an inequit-
able distribution. He therefore passed over
Mr. HIN Of Connecticut and placed Mr..
Calderhead OF Kansas and Fordney OF
Michigan on the committee. Mr.. Needham
Of California was left off, according to
the explanation, because the Pacific coast
has very few interests which are involved
In the pending bill
According to Mr.. CanROn's theory, the
North Atlantic and the Mississippi valley
sections we're the principal divisions that
are concerned about the tariff at this time.
HIS selection gave thres republicans to
the eastern states, three republicans to the
middle west aud three democrats to the
south. a4
The speakers fFisnds declare that In
this distribution his concern was not
with reference to the character of the
bill 80 much as IL was to the geoEraph-
.ioal location of the nonferees.

This county, like all other counties
in the State, is now having taste of
prohibition. The dispensaries all
closed on Monday at sun down, ac-
cording to an act of the legislature,
to remain closed until the result o. the
election is declared.
The dispensaries all did a thriving
business on Monday, many people be-
lieving that they were closing down
for good. and they wanted to get a
sslittle to keep for emergency"
The election takes place on the 18th
of August and it is expected that
warm fight will be waged by both
factions between now and that date.
The prohibitionists have been active
ly at work for several weeks, and the

day next. The dispensary advocates
have planned no fight 80 far as it is
known, and they may not make any,
but the dispensary has it's following
and no doubt much work will be done
it it's behalf.

Shocking Accident.

A shocking accident befell Isaac
Walker, a negro laborer, at the Cas-
paris Stone Co., on Friday afternoon.
His overalls became entangled in the
shafting and before the big engine
could be stopped, the left leg was bro
ken at the knee and all the flesh torn
from the bone between the knee and
ankle. Prompt medical aid was rem
dered by DIR. Frank Roberts and it is
thought that the leg can be saved.
Had not Walker shown great pres
ence of mind by holding to post, he
would have undoubtedly been killed.
