fell with the rising and falling o


the tide
He probably will be long remem-
bered by reason of the effectiveness
of his humor in the debates on the
Payne tariff bill in the house. His
speech in defense Of retaining the
duty on lumber secured several ad-
ditional votes for the duty. His &C
quiescense to a rule for vote on
the Payne bill, with reduced rates
on lumber, assured the passage of
the rule. In describing his feelings
to the house, he likened them to
those of a cowpuncher in Wyoming,
whose ability to raise 1000 cattle in
one summer with one COW as start
er, caused a rope to be placed around
his neck by a vigilance committee.
"They asked Bill what he had to
say" explained Mr.. Cushman. "Old
Bill rolled his quid into the other
cheek and said: We'll, gentlemen,
/ s'pose I've got more interest in
this performance than any other
gent present, but l am the least en-
thusiastic over the program
The Washington congressman held
the title of being the homliest man
in the house and Of looking more
like Lincoln than any other public
man of recent years. In summarize
ing his career once, he said he had
been a waterboy, section hand. cow
boy, school teacher, lawyer and con-
gresEman. He was in congress for
more than ten years.

HuIn0riSt Of the House Dies

His high ability was recognized by
Speaker Cannon in committee as

the ways and means committee, when
a great tariff bill was pending. A

striking thing about Representative
Cushman was that he never display
ed his gift Of humor to the house
for mere amusement, but always with
a view of impreseing his views more
forcibly upon that body. One of his
first speeches to attract attention
touched on the effects Of the panic
in 1893. In describing the impover-
ished condition to which his con-
stituents were reduced, he said they
were forced to live on clans, washed
ashore by the incoming tide. ''Their
stomachs" he continued, "rose and

New York, July 6.-Francis W..
Cushman, representative in congress
from Tacoma, Wash, died at 5
O'Clock Tuesday morning at Roose-
welt hospital from pneumonia. At
the bedside at the time were, be-
sides the doctors and nurses, United
States Senator Samuel H. Piles, Of
Washington, and Andrew S. Bur-
leigh, of this city, a lifelong friend.
Congressman Cushman underwent an
operation a short time ago and pneu-
monia resulted. Senator Piles and
Mr. Burleigh, who had been with the
patient almost constantly since his
condition became serious, said they
would make arrangements for the
sending of the body to Washington.
While a representative Cushman
possessed unchallenged the title Of
"house humorist," he was universal
ly regarded as far more than that.

Homemade Ink.

A good fnls is made in this way:
Bruise half a pound Of nutgalls and
stand in one quart Of water, shaking
it now and then, for about four hours.
Then add three ounces and a half OF
gum arabic and when it is quite dis
solved three ounces Of copperas. To
prevent the ink from becoming moldy
when kept add three or four drops of
creosote. This gives pleasant-like
smell to the ink and does not corrode
the pens as chloride Of mercury would
do.

What Hartman
Says About the
West Coast Of Mexico

When Edward H. Hartman, probably the
greatest railroad man America has ever pro-
duced, was in Los Angeles recently. he was
interviewed by newspaper men On variety
of topics. While he discussed with his usual
directness and keen insight many matters of
interest to the American people, his most
significant remarks related to Mexico, and
particularly to the West Coast
Great liberality is the policy of the Mexi-
can Government toward American capital
In fact, their entire trend is to be fair and
prompt.
1.-THE deltas of these rivers have formed the
richest kind of land similar to that formed
by the Colorado River in the Imperial Valley
All the land needs is water, water and de-
velopment. Some of these lands are fully
equal to the Colorado delta and are only
waiting for irrigation and cultivation. If
any of you want to get out of this part of the
country, there is the place for you to go.
