Leaders in Congress Urged to
Hasten Legislation
SUMMONED TO WHITE HOUSE
President Would Clear Decks of
All Minor Measures.

washington, Feb. 17.-The slow
progress being made by congress in
disposing of the important measures
which the president has specially
urged is causing him extreme dissat-
isfaction and he is taking measures to
let that fact be known. He was called
upon at the White House, presumably
at his own request, by several legis-
lators in charge of the various meas
ures
The necessity for prompt action, at
least upon some of the minor matters
of legislation, was strongly discussed
by the president. One of the callers
was Senator Beverage, chairman of
the committee on territories, who is
looking after the Alaska territorial
bill. Others were Senator Carter, who
is fathering the postal savings bank
bill; Senator Borah, who has distin-
guished himself by his active opposi-
ton to some of the features Of the lat
ter measure, and Representative
Hayes, ranked as an insurgent, whose
aid might be helpful in getting united
action by the Republican majority in
the house upon the Republican plat
form pledges.
1t is believed the president desires
that such measures as the Arizona and
New Mexico statehood bill, the Alas
kan territorial bill and others of COM
paratively minor Importance be acted
upon at once in order to clear the way
for some Of the larger subjects, at
least those likely to give rise to pro-
longed discussion and controversy.
The president will continue his per-
sonal interviews with the various
leaders in the senate and house and
if this course does not avail it is en-
tirely possible that he may feel called
upon to send a special message to
congress saying where the responsible
ity belongs.
The president now realizes that
three bills, each an administration
measure which he has heartily cham
pioned, are in danger of failing The
railroad rate bill and the various so
called conservation bills are still tied
up in committee and the president is
beginning to wonder why it is that
the machinery which must be depend
ed on to report them out is not set in
notion E5 Il. tEs.f & ...tz g-y

Chilean Cruiser Reseues Scores
From Sinking Ship.
ARRIVES IN NICK OF time.
Vessel Fast Going to Pieces as
Help Reached Scene.

Quellon, Chile, Feb 18.-The Chill
can tugboat Pisagua, arriving here,
reports that the Chilean cruiser Min
istre Zenteno has rescued the eighty
eight persons who had been left on
the wreck of the British steamer
Lima, in the Huamblin passage, Strait
of Magellan.
When the cruiser arrived at Huam-
bin passage she found eighty-six of
the survivors still clinging to the
wreck. Two others had reached shore.
Those on the wreck were taken off in
small boats with the aid of lines at
taching the cruiser to the wreck. The
two who had gotten ashore were
picked up later.
The Lima was rapidly breaking up
when the warship arrived.
The Lima stranded on Searle point,
in Huamblin passage, after being rem
dered helpless in the storm.
Over 200 of the passengers were
taken off by a British steamer, which
was forced to abandon rescue work
because all of it's boats were put out
OF service by the heavy waves. This
steamer then left the wreck and hur-
ried to Valparaiso to summon further
assistance. Six steamers were at
once dispatched in race south to
the Lima, one of which was the Chill
can warship Ministre Zenteno, which

Cherry GID Mine.

.@tr @ShSiIy \ilf.J WIFE,.
Cherry, Ill, Feb. 19.-Eleven bodies
of miners were recovered from the
st. Paul coal mine. To the amaze
ment of veteran mine inspectors the
bodies entombed since Nov. 13 when
brought to the surface were found to
be almost perfectly mummifed.
The mummifed condition was
brought about by the bodies having
for three months been in a part of
the mine which was dry and warm
and the corpses going through slow
process of drying up.
"This is one of the most remark
able incidents of disaster which has
been full of wonders" declared an old
mine inspector.

What's He Going For?

In view of the speaking trip which
Is scheduled in Ohio and other Middle
Western States this fall, his state
ment Of how a chief magistrate Of

fraught with particular interest.

Church of the Redeemer.

(Rev. Edward FulenWider, Pastor.)
The following program of divine
services has been arranged for next
Sunday at the Lutheran church of the
Redeemer:
II a. m.-The regular morning SER
vice with a special sermon by the pas
tor on the subject, "The Chief Citiz-
ems: What They Can do to Make or
Mar Their City," Text, Luke 19:47:
"And He taught daily in the temple
But the chief priests and the scribes
and the chief of the people sought to
destroy Him." The text is taken from
the gospel selected by the church for
the day. It is a gospel with a live,
up-to-date message. Jerusalem was
ruined by her "chief people," and
many of our cities today are suffering
great evils brought on by their "chief
citizens" Some things will be said
that, no doubt, the citizens of New
berry should hear and think about.
We have the power of making our
city or running it. There will be good
music at this service.
Sunday school meets at the usual
hour. p. m.
A cordial invitation, to all the ser
vices is given the public.

WON'T TALK P -,LITICS.
Taft Says President Should EscheN
Partizan Speeches-Tells His
Views In Maine.

Portland, Me-, July 26.-President
Taft today put himself on record as
subscribing absolutely to the prin-
ciple that a president of the United
States should not talk politics. He
landed at Rockland this morning to
make the last speech of his cruise.
Maine is seething with politics. The
elections are to be held September
~. Rockland is the home of ex-Gov
William T. Cobb, who is candidate
for the United States senate to sue
ceed Senator Hale. Mr.. Taft spoke to
large crowd from an automobile in
which he had taken a ride about the
city and suburbs.
He "drifted" closer to political
deliYerance than at any other
during the trip. The harbor at Rock
land, the big granite breakwater and
the ships behind it, had brought ship
subsidy to the presidents mind.
Can't Keep OH It.
They suggest to me-" he said, "the
importance of our coastwise shipping.
They also suggest the Importance Of
improving our foreign shipping. All
of which brings me so near to politics
so that I merely suggest it and leave
Il with you"
The president paused a moment and
said:
But travelling as 1 am, as presi-
dent of the United States, have no
right to be other than president Of the
whole people and to stand only on the
platform of patriotism, love of coun-
try and prosperity for ALL"
