CONGRESS MAY BOIL
IF PARSONS fights

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.--lf Her
bert Parsons stands pat and furnish
es names. gives the facts he says. he
possesses and stands ready to fight
vita Speaker Cannon on the deal
with Democrats, then the currency
problem, amendments to trust laws
and the great legislative program
Of President Taft will pale into in
significance when the House meets
In December. The first call of time
will he over the scandal which Mr..
Parsons has revived.
A coalition of Republicans o; the
Parsons stripe, OF the Republican in
surgents, of Representatives whose
districts are close because Of Cam
nonism. and of old-line Democrats
would be powerful enough to investi-
gate the charges officially. While
there Is little that a committee could
do, the facts II developed might be
edifying to the country.
There Is no law or rule Of the
House which prevents a politician
from making any Kind of a deal he
wants, and II Mr.. Cannon got votes
by dipping into New York state pol
itics there is no action the House
could take The only penalty-and
the one the insurgents would like to
would be the publication to
the country of the proof of the
charges progressive Republicans
make against Speaker Cannon and
the House organization.
II this was done the end of Can
non is in sight. There are many
Weakened Republicans who look
to that end with joy, but they have
net the courage to come out and
hight with Uncle Joe"
They would like to see Herbert
have the Roosevelt issue to bob up
for the discontinue of Speaker Can
non. In Washington 1t would be
taken as a certainty that IL Mr.. Par
sons produces proof against Cannon
II would be fight of Roosevelt
man against man who has spent
seven years denouncing the former
| President.
When the seven New York Demo-
cratic Congressman with fifteen 9TH
ers came to the rescue of Speaker
| Cannon in the contest for his rules
| and reelection there were numerous
guesses of the reason why.-Stand-
ard Oil, brewery lobby and Tam
many.
II is known that the Tammany
leader telephoned his men to follow
the lead of Representative Fitzger-
aid. Two of them, Sulzer and VIII
lett, refused. SulZer is said to have
told Boss" Murphy he would stick
to his party in spite of organization
orders.
Most of those who did vote with
Speaker Cannon received awards o
committee places, but were cut ant

THREE MORE EPLUMS
FOR PIE HUNTERS
Secretary Of Interior Outlines Three
New Districts In Oklahoma For
Special indian Agents.

Washington, d. c.. Apnl s.-The
secretary Of the interior has outlined
the three districts for special Indian
agents on the west side Of the state.
The manner in which the districts
are created give cause for the be
lief that there viii never be more
than three though the last Indian
appropriation bin provides that five
agents may be appointed for the west
side.
headquarters fer one district viii
be at Pawhuslsa. This district In
cludes Usage Kay, Pawnee and No.
BILE counties and embraces all of the
Indian reservations in that section
of the state and there are about
5000 indians to be looked after.
Another district is composed of the
territory lying between the Cimarron
and Canadian riyes running north.
west from the east line Of Pottawato-
mie county up to Dewey county which
includes all Of the reservations in that
section. Headquarters for this dis.
triet will probably be at Shawnee.
The other district vii embrace those
counties IN the southwestern part Of
the state south of the Canadian river
that have Indian reservations, and
headquarters for the agent OF that dis
trlct will probably be Lawton or ana
darko.
Commissioner Leupp stated that the
districts were not made to conform
to county lines, as is the case in the
east side of the state, but We're rather
a grouping of the Indians of the wesi
side into three groups of approx
mately 5000 each, SO located that al
agent can easily reach all the reserya
tions in his district by rail The nat
ural division seems to preclude The
possibility OF additional districts be
ing created and will make two lesl
Jobs TO be given In fact the secre
tary Of interior hesitated some time
about the necessity Of appointing an!
special agents for the west side.
So far no appointments of specia
agents for these places have beei
made There is possibility tha
three agents from the east side ma
be transferred there, but the republ
can politicians of the state are Oh
jecting to this They want to hll tn

TRIO OF HUNTERS
USE TRAMMEL NET
Courts May Be Called TO Settle Case
involving New Game Law over
Capture OF Birds.

An interesting and most unueual case
may be referred to the courts next
week, resulting from the high winds
of the early part Of this week and the
peculiar methods adopted by trio of
hunters in capturing snipe and ployer.
Observing the difficulty with which
the ployers flew against the wind, they
conceived the novel plan of capturing
them with trammel net Securing
one of about a hundred feet In length
brails were attached to the ends. Two
of the party tnen stretched the net
on the leeward side Of the ployer
when located, as near as was thought
best, whhe the third went to windward
and caused the birds to lly The re.
suits were surprising, the catches f9r
exceeding the expectations.
Opinions differ IN the legal fratern-
ity, some contending that no violation
Of the game law occurred as there
is no statute against catching snipe
in this way The game warden, how
ever, contends that as II Is a violation
to net quails il Is also a violation to
net ployer as they are ground birds
our delegate to the constitutional con
yention is thought to believe that the
action will not stand but the member
of the first legislature is presumed to
support the game warden The latter
hopes to secure a conviction on the
count OF hunters killing more than
the limit, and while that might re.
suit were there but two, the season
limit was not quite reached by all
three The defense will set up that
the party must be considered as three
separate individuals, each entitled to
the limit; but the game warden will
endeayor to eliminate the driver and
bring action against only the two who
held the net, as they were the ones
who caught the piover sportsmen
are awaiting the result with interest
and it is said the sale of trammel nets
has considerably increased, prepara
tions being made for the next day OF
high wind.
