SENATE MEETS BUT ADJoURNs
Accomplishes Little Business Other
Than Hear Memorials

Washington, D. G., March rs.
The senate was in session only
hour and fifteen minutes today and
adjourned until next Monday. Prac-a
tically all Of the time except fifteen
minutes spent In executive session
was devoted to the Introduction OF
bills, resolutions and memorials.
Senator Culberson insisted that the
memorials from the states be read.
instead of being only printed. One
from the state Of North Dakota for
the reduction OF tariff, except on
farm products. seemingly pleased
him greatly.
The only action taken was the
passage Of a resolution allowing the
rotunda Of a capito to be used for
the ceremonies connected with the
transfer Of the remains Of Major En-
fant from. farm in Maryland, to-
the Arlington National cemetery.

DENIED HE ACTED
FOR STANDARD OIL
ADMITS, HOWEVER, HE 1NFLU-
ENCED TARIFF LEGISLATION
m PAYNE BILL
Representative vreeland Says He
Kept Countervailing Duty on Oil,
Not For the Trust. But to Satisfy
Demands From Thousands Of His
Constituents Dems Argue Tariff
For Revenue Only.

Washington, D. c., March 25.-A
voluntary admission by Mr.. Vreeland
of New York that was to some ex-
tent responsible for the retention of
the countervailing duty on oil in the
Payne tariff bill, was the climax Of
the days discussion of the tariff in
the house today. Mr.. Vreeland had
sat for some time and heard various
insinuations that that duty, which
some have characterized as a "jok-
er" was to be levied solely in the
interest of the Standard Oil COM
pany. This he denied and explained
that his action was in response to
requests from thousands OF his oil
producing constituents and in behalf
OF five hundred thousand others en-
gagged in the same business. The de-
bate on the oil schedule called forth
some bitter criticism OF the Standard
Oil company by Kustermann of Wis
conain and others.
In the course Of the day numer-
GUS speeches were made touching the
tariff question generally and many
of the schedules in particular. The
arguments from the democratic
standpoint were for a tariff for re-
venue only, while the republicans
who spoke attacked such schedules
as, thpsei on wool, wood pulp and
prssss aassr-igentl crude petroleum.
4 At 6:05 p. m. the house adjourn-
ed until tomorrow, when according
to a general understanding, a deci-
sion will be reached to meet there
after at 10 o'clock and remain in
session until 5 p. M, at which time
the recess will be taken until 8 p.
M, and the debate continue for
three hours. In all likelihood the
general debate on the bill will con
clude about Wednesday of next week.

Mr. j. L. Nohner, representing the
Philadelphia Ear Masseur, modern
invention for the treatment of deaf
ness and ear diseases. The only ra-
tional and reasonably reliable instru-
nent ever devised for the cure of deaf
ness. Its basic principle is scientific
and its mode Of operation Is by air
compression under vibration. The vi
bratory air Is forced in direct contact
with the drum membrane and the par
alyzed muscles and nerves Of the ear
are forced into action by a process
that would be utterly impossible by
aly other mechanical device, and the
treatment is so effective and sure in
action that the paralyzed and dam
aged organs are worked upon by a
powerful force which is harmless, abb
solutely painless and of lasting effect.
No matter how thick the drum MEM
brane may be or how completely 1t has
fallen or how securely the little bones
of the ear have grown together his
treatment draws them loose, vibrates
them to flexibility, restores the drum
membrane to tenacity and renders IL
sensitive to sound. The treatment iE

The Philadelphia Ear Masseur,

It has been on the market, but not un-
til recently has it been convenient to
demonstrate it to the suffering in

able cures have been made and every
well selected case can be cured by IT,
The arrangement is so complete that

Both the North Dakota Harness Co

institutions in making Fargo famous
In this section of the northwest as a
manufacturing center. From time to
time both institutions send out a large

much in advertising the town
Both factories have facilities for
quick handling of their goods and can
supply the trade in almost every sec

timated that these two factories use
annually the hides of $4,000 cattle and
forty-1 tons of rye straw. This
gives some idea Of tie immense
amount of raw material consumed and
the business that is being done by
these institutions
The fact that the raw material IS
shipped in at minimum cost and that
they are located near their territory,
makes 1t possible for them to put their
goods on the market at price which
cannot be reached by, eastern manu-
facturers. They also make only the
best Of goods. These are some of the
reasons why it is best to buy Fargo

money at home to the benefit of the
entire territory. Things made in
