Gamble Demands
Duty on Flax Seed
South Dakota Senator Makes Fight
for Restoration of the Dingley
Drawback.
tErom a staff correspondent


WASHINGTON. Aug. 4-tSpecial Tele-
g~ram.)-Senator Gamble today MADE an ex-
tended rgnme on the drawback provision
as, affecting -flaxseed. The house provision
on this matter. was the re-enactment OF the
Dingley law, which prohibited the draw
back. This. was disagreed to by the senate
ard a separate provision was passed, pro-
hibitlng a. drawback as to wheat. wheat
flour. flaxseed or products. or by-products
Of flaxseed, Although the provisions were
substantially identical and there was moth
IL &, as Senator Gamble claimed, OF differ
ence between the two houses, the confer
ence committee had arbitrarily stricken out
both provisions, leaving these products sub
ject to the general drawback provision.
Senators McCumber and Gamble have
been cooperating In this matter. The states
of both senators are very large producers
Of flaxseed and 1t is a matter of great i'm
portance to these states. These two states,
with Minnesota, produce SO per cent of the
flax crops of the United States. To permit
the importation Of flaxseed subject to
drawback, Senator Gamble contended,
would be likely to glut the market and
greatly decrease the prices. The crop has
been a most profitable one in the north
west and last year the price was $l.61. The
United States, so Senator Gamble con-
tended, produces sufficient flaxseed for
domestic consumption. and to admit foreign
faxed would be a great injustice to the
northwestern farmer. He also showed that
as a result OF the Dingley law, the produc-
ton of flaxseei as well as the price, had
greatly increased and that of thirty lin
seed oil mills in the UI tied States, twenty
four arc located in the west. The advan-
tage and profit. he asserted, should elimini-
nation of the provision prevail. would
inure solely to the mills operated on the At
lantic seaboard. controlled and operated by
Standard OIL interests. The injustice of the
arbitrary action Of the, conference commit
tee, which is, claimed to be an error, was
made clearly apparent, and as a result Sen
ators McCumber and SAMPLE are assured
of the cooperation of the member Of the
conference committees OF both houses. and
they have conferences they will be able to
pass a joint resolution through both houses
correcting the. difficulty and restoring the
by-products or wheat and wheat flour.

Analysis of Problems.
In a thorough going analysis of tho

OF the Rockford Watch told the
delegates at the afternoon session that
they must maintain prices or 60 to the
wall.
"A luxury he said, the sales Of which
are limited as compared to a necessity,

The price, gentlemen, on hat which you

chamber, made a quorum, and the order
to bring in the absentees was abrogated.
Cummins Against Bill.
Senator Cummins Of Iowa made the first
speech of the evening. He announced that
he would not support the bill because, as
he said, Il was not a fulfillment of the
pledges made by the republican party.
This is not q court of bankruptcy" he
said, IAN I am not willing to accept 10
cents on the dollar in discharge of the obli-
cations OF the republican party. 1t always
has been and nor is a solvent organization.
and is not only able. but its rank and
file viii insist upon paying Its debt in full.
It's pledges will be redeemed at par, and,
although the blindness OF some Of it's lead
ers may at this time postpone the day Of
redemption, I shall await with patience,
confidence and serenity the hour at which
it viii keep full and comAlete faith with
the people" 81.
Challenging the statement by Mr.. Cum
minis that there had been no substantial
reduttion In the bill. Mr.. Aldrich declared
that there had been 800 reductions of rates.
II would be impossible, he said, to show
that these rates were above a reasonable
protective point.
= AIdrIch Invited to Iowa.
Mt fCummins, having invited the Rhode
Island senator to visit him in Iowa to help
him convince the people that these rates
were only high enough to be protective,
senator Bailey suggested that when those
two senators should perform in double
harness. he wished to receive an invita-
ton to witness the event.
Drifting in a discussion of politics, Sena-
tors CummiRs, ,Aldrich, Bailey, Dick, Bev-
sridge and Smith (Mich.) entered upon a
sort of experience meeting concerning the
political issues Of 1896. Mr.. Aldrich in
sisted that Misrepresentation Of the Nc
.Kinley tariff bill first caused the defeat OF
+, the republican party and then resulted in
the nomination and election Of Mckinley.
1T was the money question that con-
trolled that campaign" suggested Mr..
Beveridge.
1T was the absence OF money that con-
trolled it, suggested Mr.. Smith.

Senator Daniel, in an extended speech,
renewed his complaint that he and other
democratic members of the finance commit
tee had been excluded from a fair partici-
patton in the consideration Of the tariff

leagues had been promised a day in which
to cast their vote against the conference
report, and had been denied 1t by the chair

PROHIBITION
 FOR TENNESSEE
FROM THURSDAYS DAILY.

Nashville, Tenn. January 13.- The bill to prohibit the sale of in- toxicating liquor in Tennessee passed the lower house of the gen. eral assembly this evening at 6:15 o'clock. The vote was 62 to 36 Twenty-two Republicans voted for and one against the measure. The measure passed is the one favora- ply acted on yesterday by the sen- ate, and now goes to Governor Patterson. He is expected to veto it, but under the constitution his veto only operates as suggestion, not as a stay, and bare majority may pass a bill over the execu- lives unfavorable action.
 State widers maintain that the governors action is not material, that his veto will not be sustained. The bill provides that prohibition become effective July I, 1909.
 When the final vote was an- nounced the cheers from the gal leries were deafening, the demon stration on the floor and in the gal leries lasting several minutes.

 This morning the balance of the negro convicts, about 30 in num- Der, brought in yesterday from the camp at Eldorado in a stockade train by Warden Smith, were sent to the farm on special train. They too were immediately put to work. There were about 800 negro convicts ou the farm before the $50 were taken down Sunday and today. All the white con- victs except few sick ones at the old penitentiary, have been taken to the new prison, where they are confined with no work to do, but the legislature will provide for them before the close of the week.

DEBTS THREATEN
 TWO COLLEGES
BAPTIST SCHOOLS IN STRAIT
Central and Ouachita are Heavily
 in Debt.
Vigorous Campaign to Relieve Financial Burden Said, However, to Prom
 ise Success.
FROM FRIDAYS DAILY.

That a mortgage on Central Col lege will be foreclosed in March and that "Ouachita College can scarcely hope to open next fall, :" unless immediate steps are taken to relieve the financial burden of these institutions, is the rather startling statement made by Finan- cial Secretary R. G. Bowers in an article just made public.
 The total indebtedness of these two Baptist colleges is placed at S69, ,3o6.45, of which SI7,833 45 represents the outstanding debt against Central College. The principal items composing the in debtedness of the Conway institu- ton are as follows: R. ]. Brown, mortgage note, S5,ooo; Bank of Conway, mortgage note, S3,25o; w. w. Rivers, note for pianos, $2,15o; w. w. Rivers, note for back salary, S5,4oo.
 "The debts have now become so heavy" says Dr. Bower "that we must pay them or they will crush us. This is a crisis. Ark ansas Baptists must pay up their debts now or soon be out of the school business. If something significant is not done in two years our schools will be running on a lower basis (and that means death) or they will be sold for debt. There is suit filed against Central College now for foreclosure of a mortgage against the property. This case will go to the courts in March, if we are not able to stop it by paying off the claims. Ouachita College can scarcely hope to open next fall if some of its obligations are not relieved. /"
 Dr. Bowers believes, however, that the announcement of these facts will result in movement which vii soon remove the fnan- cial burdens from these institutions "Everything is encouraging" he says. "Our Baptist people have no idea of taking backward step, be it ever so short. Many men of means are coming to our relief as never before. The future is aglow with hope"
 Dr. Bowers goes on to state tha: the debt of practically S7o, ,ooo has been divided, one half of which he expects to raise in large donations and the balance in collections in the field. Ov,r S25, ,ooo, he says, has already been pledged in large subscriptions.

Little Rock, Jan.
