DEMOCRATS FORCE
MANY AMENDMENTS
Original WIckersham Railroad Bill
Would Have Destroyed All Pro-
gress Toward Regulation.

Washington, May 9.-The demo-
Gratis, assisted by a handful of fight
ing progressive republicans, have
forced the administration to abandon
some of the worst of the corporation
serving clauses placed in the railroad
regulation bill by Attorney General
Wickersham
Wickersham framed this bill after
a conference with six railroad presi-
dents. Wall street knew long in adj
vance of the public appearance of the
bill that it would be so drawn as to
annul the Sherman antitrust law.
Railroad interests bought and sold
stock on the strength of their advance
information
Had the railroad regulation bill be-
come law as prepared by Wickersham
it would have practically destroyed all
that has been accomplished in the last
twenty years to give the government
some measure of control over the
railroads Of the country
No attorney general of the United
States has ever been revealed In just
the position Mr.. Wickersham now oc-
cupies.
Instead of having drawn bill that
would tend to place greater safe
guards about the rights of the people
of the United States. as might natur-
ally be expected from public Off
Ger who is receiving salary on the
assumption that he is giving such pro-
lection to the people. Wickersham
has been charged on the floor of the
senate with having attempted to take
from the masses even such inadequate
safeguards as they now enjoy, while
at the same time giving the corporate
interests the right to merge and do
other things that the Sherman law
has forbidden them from doing.
At the time Of Wickersham's ap-
pointment it was asserted that he had
been selected by President Taft in
Difference to the wishes of the cor
porations of the country, who had
spent money and coerced workingmen
to vote the republican ticket. and who
demanded as compensation for this
service the privilege of naming the
attorney general.
The unusual interest of special priv
ilege in this Office may be realized at
full value when 1t is understood that
the attorney general is in absolute
charge of the prosecuting machinery
of the government
Whether Wickersham's appointment
really was the result of a prediction
arrangement or not, the trusts have
had no occasion to be dissatisfied
with the presidents selection. When
ever the rights of the fayorably to the
corporate interests and against the
people, This is what the records OF
his Office show.

Quality in Eggs.


Quality in eggs depends on other things
beside freshness. The feeding of the hens
and the condition of the nests have a
great deal TO do with the market value Of
eggs.
Many people do not realize that the
favor Of eggs depends very largely on
what the hens eat. They do not know
that If the hens eat wild onions the eggs
will soon have the taste of the onions.
Duck eggs are often strong favored, and
on that account are not as well liked as
hen eggs. Most people think that this
flavor belongs to the duck eggs. The fact
is that it comes from the feed eaten.
Ducks are naturally gross feeders, delight
ing in poking about the barnyard Of
marsh places for their food. Ducks fed on
COOS sound grain viii produce eggs oi
good flavor -Starkville Miss. Progressive

The New Electric Range.

The greatest development in the electric
field during the past year has been along
the lines of heating and cooking by cleo
tricfty. The electric kitchen is now an
assured fact, and they have been in active
daily use long enough to prove their worth
and economy
The very latest design of electric stove
is made oflsheet steel. in size and shape
not unlike the modern gas stoves familiar
to all. The top of this new electric stove
is equipped with three stoves or grids,
two 1500-watt lids capable of great heat
and smaller grid consuming 500 watts
for lesser cooking. There is also room on
the top, and suitable connections, for the
coffee percolator and the cereal cooker.
Beneath the top is located an ample
space for plate warming and to keep food
already cooked warm and ready for sefv-
ing. Beneath the plate warmer is a large
oven equipped with horizontal broiler in
the top. The broiler heats TO a red glow

THE Sduasx Man. g.

"The SQuaw Man, four-act comedy
drama by Edwin Milton Royle, will be
presented at the Gondran Theatre on Dec
s, with the stellar role in the capable
hands Of Edward w Westfield
The gist of the tale is novel. Capt
James Wynnegate, played by Mr.. West
field. is one of those unfortunate English
men of an aristocratic and noble family
but with no title or money. He is, there
fore, used as the lamb of slauehter" Of
the famiIy--a sacrifice for Henry Wynne-
gate, Earl of Kerhill. who is his cousin.
For the sake of Henry's wife. whom he
loves, James assumes the guilt of Henry's
defalcation and fees to America, where
he becomes cattleman in Utah and en-
tiers deep into the life of the place. An
Indian maiden saves his life and loves
him. Perforce he maries her, only to
find, shortly. that the Earl is dead, and
that he is now heir to the title and may
claim the hand of the woman in England
whom he loves. Thus arises the conflict,
but the indian maid. stole and working
silently after the Indian fashion, clears
the path by killing herself.
The first act takes place in England,
the scene being laid atAaudesIey Towers,
the country home Of the Earl of Kerhill.
The second act, showing a typical saloon
iof thc far westi pictures wildly the pic
turesque, highly spiced qualities of the
wilderness. Five years later, the third
act opens at the ranch of Jim Carston, (the
name assumed by the exiIed Englishman).
in eastern Utah. The Indian girl,
who saved his life, is now his wife, and
they have a chiId-a little boy. It is here
that he receives the news from a London
solicitor of the death of the Earl of ker-
hill. and learns that the countess. with
whom Jim was in love. is willing to be-
gone his wife. Jim. despite his love for
his English sweetheart. remains true to
his Indian wife. until the latter. realizing
the conditions, kills herself and paves the
way for the reunion of the lovers.
Few, if any, better plays, depending
upon such surroundings and characters
for vitalization. have,been produced upon
the American stage. It is wholesome,
and at all times it tells story that is in
-teresting and genuinely human; its at
mosphere is correct, and its pictures are
of rugged type that intensity the story.
H. E. Pierce 6. Company have given the
play most superb production and
nothing has been omitted which viii aid
in carrying the piece to success. The
scene of the second acta typical
frontier saloons said BY those who
have seen it to be the very best repro
duction of western life that has vet been
made upon the stage. The other scenes,
the one showing. batoniaI English
country home. and the ether cattle
ranch in eastern Utah. are not less
picturesque and realistic.
