PROSECUTORS WARRANT
BILL LOST IN HOUSE
Measure Characterized as Vicious by
Edge and Defended by the
Sneaker

OLYMPIA, March "a senate jul
dietary committee bill permitting
county attorneys to issue warrants
was Indefinitely postponed in the
house this evening after a stormy
debate between l.. f. Edge, of Spo-
kane, and Speaker Megis.
Edge protested that the bill had
been introduced in the senate at the
instance of George +. Vanderveer,
King county attorney and gave prose-
cutOrs a dangerous and arbitrary
power. He held that the men who Is
sue warrants should not prosecute
and that the bill robbed citizens of
personal rights. The bill, as Mr..
Edge analzed it, permitted county
attorneys to throw witnesses or per-
sonal enemies into jail for an indie
finite length of time.
Megis explained that the bill was
drawn to curtail evils that exist I'M
der present laws. Perjury could be
stopped and false witnesses could be
punished by the provisions Of the
bill, he said.
Judge Buck, Of Spokane, argued
that the bill took from an American
citizen his fundamental rights and
urged its pOstponement.

Benjamin +. Shively of South Bend,
who will succeed J. A. Hemenway as
has been prominent in the politics of
his state for many years. Although
his defeat in the Democratic caucus Of
John W. Kern, Bryan's running mate
in the late campaign. was in the ma
ture of a surprise. Mr.. Shively was
hardly in the dark horse" class
Twice before, in 1903 and 1909. he re.
ceived the Democratic vote Of the In
diana legislature for senator.
Mr. Shively is native of the state

WatchWord For Tradesmen.

Organization IS the watchword of
the day. 1t is the part Of system. 1t
means force and economy. A single
twig can be easily bent and broken.
A bundle tied together has strength
that deties the efforts Of giant. The
same In organization. One merchant,
one tradesman in any line, cannot well
bring about needed reforms. 1t re-
quires united action, and this action
can only be had when there is perfect
and harmonious organization.

Pulp and Paper Duties.

The work of revising the existing
tariff rates on pulp and paper has al
ready been brought to a practical
conclusion. so thoroughly has the
matter been investigated by the select
committee whose report was pre-
scented to the house on February 19.
The Record has already favorably
commented on the labor of this COM
mittee as a specimen of really revls-
DRY revision in the direction of the
public interest. The report covers
between 5000 and 1000 pages of
printed testimony. The committee
personally inspected large number
of the pulp and paper mills, and also
visited and examined forests, both
in the United States and Canada,
giving long study to the woods used
in papermaking. Every phase OF the
business was discussed. All sides
were heard. The committee convinc-
ed Itself of the necessity of tariff re-
duction as result of the cal eful
sitting Of all obtainable information,
and made thereupon an unanimous
report.
This result has been largely due
to the unremitting assistance, given
to the committee by Chairman John
Norris, Of the committee on paper,
acting on behalf OF the American
Publishers Association. Mr.. Norris
so presented the facts relating TO the
purchase and use Of paper as to win
the encomium and convince the judg-
ment of the committee. Ordinarily,
In the course of tariff-making and
unmaking the consumers go unheard.
Mr.. Norris gave them adequate voice
What a pity it is that there are ont
more Norrises to speak for the mil
lions when tariff reduction shall be
considered on the remaining Dingley
schedules"

Some reduction of wages have been
reported in the iron and steel world.
A concern in Pottstown has reduced
the pay for pudding one-third. The
Lackawanna Steel Company has re-
duced wages 10 per cent, but the
presidents of Jones & Laughln and
the Pittsburg Steel Company deny
that they contemplated reductions
They have given the matter no con-
sideration, and will be governed in
the future by conditions as they
arise. If the present reduction in
selling prices shall stimulate an ac-
tive demand for steel there will prob
ably be little disposition to cut
wages. 1t must be remembered that
it takes time to make the specifica-
tions involved in contracts for thous-
ands of tons of steel, and it is not
singular that the large buyers were
not prepared for instant action when
the steel Corporation cut loose from
its schedules.

TWO VIEWS OF CALVIN DEMAREST.


game. Some of the experts think,
however. that he could make it mighty
interesting for Willie at 1871 or 1872
after few months more Of practice.
Hoppe, while a star at either game,
is at his best at 1871. Demarest has
never gone very far into the more diff
cult style. but his play would lead one
to believe that if he ever does take
it up he will be hard for any one to
beat. His style of play is we'll adapted
to 1871, and his long runs are always
marked by his out of balk play.
Demarest is now touring the country,
playing all Corners, and so favorably
has he impressed those who have
watched his cue work that the ma
jority Of them unhesitatingly declare
that before many months elapse Willie
Hoppe will have to look to his laurels.
Demarest plays with a style peculiar
to himself. At first glance he is awk-
ward, but after watching his work for
awhile the spectator soon realizes that
he possesses all that goes to make up
great player and that many Of the
little mannerisms and Alterations for
mer champions are wont to assume are
entirely lacking in his makeup.
This boy is a ballto-ball player from
start to finish and 1t is rarely that he
Is called upon to make cushion shot.
When this Is necessary, however, he
shows that he has marvellous control
of the cue ball and an unerring eye.

the young man reels off his points, and
in many exhibition games it never re-
uuired more than an hour to terminate
$50 point game. His draw shots are
marves for accuracy, and his masses
are strongly suggestive Of Jake Schae
fer at his best This may be explained
in Denarest's views on the game when
he said that he had been a close stu
dent of billiards for fifteen years, de-
spite the fact that he IS but twenty
one years old, and that In this time he
had endeavored to absorb the best fea-
lures Of each OF the best players
games.
"Schaefer to me was ever marvel,
Demarest said recently, land perhaps
/ learned more from ulIl tudH from
any other player. Vignaux, too, was
brilliant player, and my games with
him were wonderfully helpful to me In
after years. Hoppe | consider one OF
the best players in the world, but l am
confident that can beat him, and this
l expect to do whenever match can
be arranged for us"
Asked as to his love of billiards and
his mastery Of the game, Demarest re-
blied: ut is long story but perhaps
It may interest you. l was prepared
for musical career. My father Is the
foremost organst in Chicago, and 1t
was his wish that learn to master the
piano and then launch forth upon the
concert stage. My mother is finished
musician, and-well, l have heard the
worlds best singers-Melba, Nordica,
TetraZzini and the rest Of them--but to
nv mind none Of them can compare
with mother. That's a sweeping as
sertion. but You should hear mother,
and then you could understand my en-
thusiasm."

The Magnet es . Detective.

In America the magnet has come
'ather extensively into use in the han.
ding Of iron and steel castings. Sus-
pended from II locomotive crane. it
can also be used for collecting scraps
Of metal from floors and yards. Large
amounts ere said to 10 lved in this
way. And rs the magnet moves over

to hide blunGers in their work. Some
years ago IN England the magnet was
found useful in IL somewhat similar
way in the detection of fraud. Manu-
faCturers Of bone manure found that
they We're buying old iron along with
the bones. Collectors found that it
was profitable to insert bits Of old
metal in the larger bones and thus in
crease the weight. SO the manufac-
turers provided themselves with a
pow erful magnetic apparatus under
which all the bones were passed be-
fore being weighed. AS the bones
were slid along broad groove a large
one would suddenly jump up and
cling to the wall where the magnet
was concealed. On examination it
would be found to contain perhaps a
rusty old poker in place Of marrow

John Brackenich appeared in JUS

Savata Sura, a married woman, living
at Osceola, alleging that she struck
him over the head with an iron ladle
