"Joker" in the Lumber Sched-
ule Is Doomed and Ambigu-
Gus Language in Bill to Be
Eliminated.
SEMBLANCE OF ORDER
Is NOW PREVAILING

! Washington. d. c., April o.-On
April shat is next Monday--the gen.
eral debate on the tariff bill will come
to stop in the house of representa-.
tives. That, at any rate. is the pres
ent plan Of the republican leaders Of
that body.
A rule is to be brought in under
which the bill is to be taken up para
graph by paragraph and discussed I'M
der the five minute rule. The rule al
50 will TX the date for final vote.
which will be within week or ten
days following. Thus the enervating
talkfest that has been in progress now
for nearly fortnight is happily draw
ing to close.
Situation Clarified.
The situation in the house was con-
siderably clarified yesterday, and out
of the chaos that has prevailed during
the week has come a semblance of Or
der.
The leaders, by keeping their ears to
the ground for several days. have been
able to get their bearings and to map
out definite program for next week.
The ways and means committee was
at work yesterday afternoon on it's
part of the program, which consists OF
preparing a number of amendments to
the bill.

Lumber Joker Is Doomed.
The joker In the lumber schedule
| will be extracted, and that provision
in the bill simplified so as to mean
what 1t seems to signify. but actually
| does not.
| In other words. ii will be made clear
| that the duty on cut lumber is reduced
| from 81 to 81 thousand feet. and the
ambiguous language Of the timber
schedule. whereby the lumbermen ex-
pected to escape the reduction. made
simple and explicit.
| The present plan also is to fix the
duty on barley at % cents bushel.
which is 5 cents lower than the pres
ent duty, and 10 cents higher than the
| impost fixed in the Payne BILL
Take Separate Vote.
| Further than this, it is intended to
permit the house to take q separate
vote on the iron. coal and hide sched-
uIes. against which there has been SO
much opposition from the representa-
tives of states, which produce these ar
ticles.
II was with something OF shock

Land That Sells Rapidly.

In the lower Pecos valley in Texas.
near where the Orient railroad viii
cross the Pecos river, that is the main
line from Kansas City to the Gulf of
California. 100000 worth of land
has been sold in the last four months
to careful farmers from all parts of
the United States and especially from
Colorado and other irrigating sec
tions. With every acre of land sold
at SEQ an acre there is a perpetual
water right. This land is watered
from the Imperial reservoir ditch also
from the Williams ditch which holds
first priority right from the Pecos
river in the state of Texas and be-
hind this never failing flow of water
there is a reservoir made and COM
pleted holding sixteen thousand acre
feet of water, being two miles square
and seventeen feet deep. Homeseek-
ers who have travelled through many
states and have visited large num-
ber of irrigation projects have bought
their land here. Remarkable sue
cess in selling this land is not due to
scientific craftsmanship or to glaring
advertisements or dazzling free Of
fers to buyers. Every man who has
bought land has bought his own
ticket to go and see it, he has been
afforded ample opportunity to fully
investigate before attaching his sig
nature to the contracts. He has been
shown the lands and the water sys-
tenn and seeing the land in the rough
as it lay before him could easily fig
ure ahead the great possibilities OF
such country. OF the hundreds
who have visited this tract, ninety
per cent have bought, many who came
reported to others and in numerous
g.,g Nrh did after
going home and thinking the matter
over became so solidly convinced of
the wisdom of their investment that
they withdrew their bank accounts
and purchased more land in the Pecos
valley. Many men have paid all cash
and received a discount of five per
cent, some have paid half cash, show
ing the great confidence in the fu-
ture of this proposition and we would
be only too glad to give you the
names of those people in your local
ity who have seen and bought this
land and whose judgment you would
think well of.
Mr. John X. Lewis, of Denver. has
written Mr. Hornbeck a letter stating
Il have bought eighty-three thousand
dollars worth of your land and con-
slider that at a very conservative esti-
mate the land will be selling for one
hundred and fifty dollars per acre
in years time. when the land will
be under irrigation and railroad facil-
tiles afforded"
A number of men are going down
on June 21st with Mr. II. j. Gray of
Grand Junction and Mr.. Hall Harri-
son. who is selling this land in the
state of Colorado. BY going now
you can see what the country looks
like in the summer time and you
must realize that all growing things
are much farther ahead in Pecos val
ley than we find them here in the
Grand valley.

the plating is extra heavy, the cost IS less than
other kinds. The rich cut glass in The Fair Is

has been built up slow and unceasing and sub
stantial effort to sell only satisfactory and de-
pendable footwear lttler profit, very much
littler profit is more agreeable to The Fair than
to others; therefore, it's possible for The Fair
