BUSY EASTER SHOPPING
The Vile de Paris One of the Busy Shop
ming Centers

The retail district is having n phe-
nonenal business this week IN catering
10 Faster wants in millinery and cloth
ing and nowhere is this activity more
in evidence than at the popular Ville
de Paris, where the choicest products
of the worlds markets are on display
and sale. The millinery section of
this great store is particularly attrac-
tive and the creations of silks, flowers
and hraids embodied in the pretty hats
designed for California women are the
models of the worlds foremost milli-
ners. rejecting the styles of Paris
London and New York, and in such
profusion Of shapes that every type
of face can be fitted, and the condi-
tions Of every pocketboOk fully met
The handsome gowns, that are made
IN match the gorgeous millinery, are in
every shade Of the new popular col
ors and elaborately garnitured. The
other furnishings so necessary to COM
plete a WOman's wardrobe, such as
gloves. hosiery and neckwear, are IN
greater variety of cOlors and designs
than at any former Faster season. This
has been very much due to the tact
that the population Of Los Angeles Is
made I'D of people who travel and see
things. and knowing what is worn in
other sections have made their wants
known to the local dealers, none OF
whom have been so ready to meet
these wants as the Vile de Paris.
The stores show windows, with their
Faster decorations are not only pic
tlros of the window trimmer's art but
reflect the elegance and eXClusiveness
of the merchandise carried, and which
is so eagerly sought by the discrim-
mating shoppers of the gentler sex.

CLAPP ASSAILS
RAILROAD BILL
DECLARES 1T REVOLUTIONARY Y
IN MANY PROVISIONS
ENERGETIC ATTACK PRoVokES
REPLY FROM ELkINs
Admission Made That Conferences Are
to Be Held Regarding Ger
tain Changes in
Measure
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator
speech in the senate today on the ad
ministration railroad bill, which he
termed revolutionary in many OF its
provisions.
Mr.. Clapp criticised many features Of
the bill. He was especially severe on
the policy of specialization in the ju-
dietary, saying that to select five mon
to hear all railroad cases inevitably
would subject them TO public censure-
a censure so intense the did not believe
even the Apostle Paul could stand un-
der it.
He contended for the right of the
shippers to representation in any case
in the courts involving orders Of the
interstate commerce commission.
To eliminate the commission, place
the defense in the hands of the depart
ment of justice, and make the United
States the defendant, would be to rob
the real party at interest of all right of
defense, he said. He denounced the
provision as absolutely contrary TO the
spirit of American institutions.
To Validate Existing Deals
Mr.. Clapp boldly charged the purpose
of the merger provision of the bill to
be the valuation or existing holdings
by one railroad company of the stock OF
another. He ridiculed the provisions
permitting the court to pass on the le-
reality of combination contracts before
their consummation and authorizing 1t
! to consider the question of the public
interest in taking cognizance of such
| matters He did not believe any coun-
! try on earth would tolerate such an ar
! rangement.
! Confidence was expressed that before
/ the vote was taken on the bill 1t would
| be amended TO provide for notice IN
! connection with injunction proceedings
and for appeals from interlocutory de-
| crees.
The discussion OF this phase of the
question elected from Senator Elkins a
| renewed statement Of his inclinaton
| toward such a course.
Conferences to Be Held
Mr. sutherland asked the West Vir-
ginia senator whether there was any
| objection to retaining the provision OF
the existing law on this subject and
Mr.. Elkins replied that the matter was
under consideration.
rs II true?" asked Mr.. Cummins,
the majority of the committee Is mold
ing meetings on these points,
None as yet" responded Mr.. Elkins'
but we will come together to consider
the matter"
IF there is a desire to expedite the
! bin why can we not put in the amend
ment right now?" asked Mr.. BeVeridge'
| Mr.. Elkins replied with another ques-
! tfon: why can't we pass the state
hood bill now?" he asked with the pur-
! nose of emphasize the difficulties.
I'VE can" promptly replied the Indi-
ana, senator, who has charge of that
measure. 1--WE can" he repeated. "Will
the senator agree to it2'
Il can't do it," finally Mr.. Elkins
said.

from the government service, and OF
the investigation that has followed.
Mr.. Roosevelt also found awaiting
him, rumor has it, bulky letter from
Senator Root, reviewing the first year
of the new administration and Wig
orously defending it and probably out
lining the latest development of the
Ballinger- Pinchot affair.
Doubtless there were other letters
discussing from various points of view
the achievements and alleged omis-
sions of the Taft administration.

ROOSEVELT 1910 CANDIDATE
SAYS SENATOR CLARK

"EX-President Roosevelt is undoubt
edly grooming himself for the repub
l1can presidential nomination in 1912
and barring unforeseen developments
he will probably be the choice of the
republican party" said Senator w. A
Clark of Montana, who arrived in
Spokane in his private car the other
day.
Opposed to Roosevelt will be prob
ably Governor Harmon of Ohio. Har-
mon is a strong, clean candidate. The
democratic party must and will NOM
mate a strong candidate, for the
chances for democratic success have
never been better than what they are
now.
Had Governor Johnson of Mime
sofa lived there is no question in my
mind but that he would have received
the nomination from our party.
THE democrats have three or four
good, strong men. Mayor Gaynor of
New York is strong man; ex-Gov-
ernor Folk of Missouri is an able and
strong man and Woodrow Wilson is
a good man. Harmon of Ohio, l be-
lieve, is the strongest at this time"

7. R. READY FOR BATTLE
IN NEW YORK CONVENTION

New York, Sept 18.-The gauntlet
flung the banner fwoln, the field
picked, Theodore Roosevelt has now
but little more than week before
the actual shock of conflict with the
old guard" in the republican state
convention at Saratoga.
He returned to New York this morn
ing from Syracuse.
The colonel refused to discuss his
plans for the fight at Saratoga, or to
say he believes he will be successful
His references to President Taft in
his Syracuse speech, in which he gave
his approval to number of the most
important acts of the administration,
are regarded, however, as throwing
some light on his probable attitude
toward an Endorsement of the admins
tration by the Saratoga convention.
What action he will take in case an
is made to indOrse President
Taft for denomination in 1912 is a
subject on which he remains abso-
lutely mute. Reports that he would
resist such an Endorsement have
brought forth no statement from him,
except hat he will have nothing to say
on the point unless the question be
raised at Saratoga.

We wish to indorse your movement,
which we consider one of the best
ideas and carried out in the most
practical way of any movement that
has ever been tried in the state. We
think your system is the best and most
practical way OF any movement that
has ever been tried in the state.
Bozeman Milling Co.: The move
ment will have a very beneficial eff
feet and will result in better prices
being paid for farm products.
The Helena Independent: If it came
to a pinch, Montanans could live very
on what is manufactured
in Montana. We are still a trifle de-
tlclent on Woolen mills, but we do
make clothing. Our tailors manufac-
ture clothes that are just as neat and
stylish as the best on old Broadway.
We have sugar mills, flour and oat-
meal mills, packing plants, soap fac
tories, breweries, cracker and candy,
broom and drug factories, foundries,
plants, wire fence, trunk, ci-
gar, boot and shoe, brick and lumber
