REPRESENTED
ON THE TARIFF COMMITTEE
Addition of Congressman Cushman
Gives Washington Two Rcpresen-
tatiycs.

WASHINGTON, March 1G.-In
striking contrast to the scenes of con-
fusion and disorder and acrimonious
debate which marked the opening
day of the house, the session today
assumed it's wonted air of benignity.
There was a general good feeling
among the members, whose main
topic of conversation was yesterdays
fight over the rules. The anticipat-
ed message of president was received
and met with prolonged applause
from the republicans.
Some disappointment was felt
however, over the'fact that the tariff
measure was not presented. This it
is expected will be done tomorrow
Interest attached to the announce
ment by Speaker Cannon of personnel
of the committee on rules and the
committee on ways and means. The
biennial lottery for seats was con-
Quoted.

The Payne. tariff bill will be intro
duced in the house early tomorrow
In the meantime it will be reprinted

appointed the committee on ways and
means and several changes in the
bill were attended to. The meeting
was for the purpose of securing the
approval of the new republican MEM

had no knowledge of the provisions of
the bill.
Pacific Coast Cared For.
The appointment of Representative
Cushman gives the Pacific coast two
representatives on the republican side
of the ways and means committee

without representation. While Cush-
man had little time to consider the
bill his attitude may have changed
the measure considerably. The chan

May Alter the Bill.
Cushman represents a section of
the country which desires to improve
it's commercial relations with Canada,
especially to secure a market for
citrus fruits, olives, grapes and other
commodities of perishable character
for which a ready market is needed.
On the other hand the lumber inter-
ests are very large in that section
and Cushman's attitude may have a
material effect in regard to the lum-
Der schedule.
Numerous briefs have been sub
mitted by important interests in the
northwest having free iron ore and
coal competition with Canadian coal
in view and has in part a recipro-
city arrangement with Canada. Print
ed copies of the tariff bill, matrices
and even paper remaining on the
presses that were used to print the
bill had been locked in the vaults of
the printing Office since 1880 this
morning. 1t had been planned to
bring in bill today, but it was de-
sired to secure for it the unanimous
approval of the republican members.

j. L. HANDSAKER is APPOINTED
AGENT AND INSTRUCTED TO
HOLD EVERYTHING UNTIL FUR
THEIR NOTICE-H. j. SNIVELY
SAYS RECEIVERSHIP SIMPLi-
FTES MATTERS.

The North Yakima & East Selah
Irrigation company which is the
Clark O'Bryan project, has gone into
the hands of receiver. BY appli
cation made in the superior court of
King county Friday the Seattle Trust
& Title company was appointed re-
ceiver of the property and a telegram
was at once sent to North Yakima
to that effect. to j. r. Handsaker,
from the Trust company. declaring
him to be its agent and ordering him
to hold all the property of the COM
pany, as such agent, until further
notice.
Difficulties Arc Multiplied.
The foregoing action on the part
of Mr.. O'Bryan brings into the pres
ent complication the Trust company,
on which he relied tor funds to carry
out his plans, places the property,
which is the Pomona project, into
its hands, and multiplies the difficult
ties before the water users in their
efforts to get water on the land and
themselves down to actual cultiva-
ton of their respective properties.
Mr.. O'Bryan asked the water users
to agree to trusteeship and to I'M
dertake to allow the property to re-
main intact in the hands of such trus-
tee for year. he extending all con-
tracts for that length of time in re-
turn for the time given him, and
to devote his own time perfecting
his water right.
Proposal Is Not Considered.
This proposal was not rejected 1t
was merely not considered and Mr..
O'Bryan, protecting himself. took the
steps outlined above The theory of
this was to get the property under
cover in the shape of a trusteeship
and permit of further time for de-
veloping the plans ne required time
to perfect.
Upon the receipt of the above tele-
gram herald reporter caught Hen
ry j. Snively. attorney for the Pomo-
ma land owners, just as he was leav-
ing for Spokane, informed him of the
action of O'Bryan in putting his com
pany in the hands of a receiver, and
asked him what effect this would
have on the landowners project Mr..

IRIS CARRIE NATION.

The Clark County Courier
has the following to say of Mrs.
Carrie Nation as a chautauqua
lecturer:
The attraction for Sunday af-
ternoon's lecture hour at the
Kahoka Chautauqua was Mrs.
Garry A. Nation, and without
being especially attractive she
proved an attraction of the first
magnitude, as a crowd estimated
as high as two thousand listened
to her random talk on her ex-
periences as an active advocate
of world wide prohibition. Mrs,
Nation first attracted public at
tsntion by smashing some sa-
looms at Kiowa Kansas, ten or a
dozen years ago and she has
managed to keep in the lime
light ever since. She has been
thumped in the United States,
rotten-egged in Great Britain
and jailed thirty-three times and
still Garry and prohibition &c
marching on. Mrs. Nation is
something of an orator but her
lecture is a rough tumble OF
crude English. She may be

perance as she goes along but

MISSOURI MINERS
PROSPEROUS,

JOPLIN. MO.,-Zinc mining
has assumed a new Importance
in the world of commerce. The
adoption of the tariff bill insures
protection to the zinc mining
industry of the United States
and as the Joplin district is the
leading producer of this ore,
prosperity for the locality is as
sured. An almost phenomenal
transformation is noticeable in
the Joplin district since presi-
dent Taft affixed his signature to
the Payne bill. Within two
hours after the news reached this
city zinc ore went up from $45
to $40 a ton and this week the
price reached $50 a ton for zinc
ores containing 50 per cent
metallic content.
A good steady demand for
zinc ore at high prices means
additional employment for thous-
thousands of men.
The feeling in the district is
that the prosperity which has
just begun to bud will not be
merely temporary.
The effect of the triff has
been felt in a hurry. Numerous
properties that could not operate
at a profit when zinc ore was be-
low $40 a ton are now in a posi-
ton to produce steadily and at a
profit.

ABSOLUTE SECURITY OF
DEPOSITS.
Solution of Bank Guarantee
Problem. Makes all Banks
That Avail Themselves of The
Plan, AS Safe as The U. S.
Government.
DEPOSITS.

uO n i EE1NN bLI WI
Now, a mans property may De
insured against any contingency
of loss, be that property what it
may, including his cash deposited
in banks. A charter has recently
been issued by the state of Mis-
souri, authorizing the Bank 1nsur-
lance & Indemnity Company of
Kansas City to- transact a general
insurance business. But the spe-
cial object of the company is to
insure the assets of banks in an
amount sufficient to guarantee all
depositors that their money is alb
solutely secure.
This company has solved the
problem in a perfectly simple and
business-like way, namely, to pro-
vide against loss to the individual
depositor by insuring the assets
of the bank against loss OF any
and every nature in an amount
equal to the deposits of each bank.
More than six hundred banks have
already expressed an interest in
this company, including a number
in western Missouri. Any one in
terested as a depositor can gett the
information as to what banks have
availed themselves of this chance
Of absolutely protecting their de-
positors by writing to the Bank
Insurance & Indemnity Company
of Kansas City, Mo.
This company's form of policy
has been approved by the attor-
| ney general of the United States.
It's rates are based on actuarial
figures compiled by the leading
actuary of this country. The plans
OF operation have been furnished
by the most successful insurance
and financial men in this country
and it's management is now in the
hands of the best talent obtain
able. It's object is to make bank
failures practically impossible and
to make it absolutely impossible
for a bank depositor to lose any
money, even though his money is
on deposit in a bank that should
meet with disaster.
Great companies have arisen in
the past in response to demands
for insurance in almost every line
and now this company has been
formed for the purpose of grant
ing a form OF insurance that is of
more Importance and more great
ly in demand than any other
Kansas City Post.
