The Green Forest tribune., 1910-07-01

Washington, D. C.-At Il o'clock Saturday night the gavels of Speaker Cannon and Vice President sherman fell ill the house and senate and con gress adjourned sine die. More than billion dollars of the peoples mon ey. to be raised in large part by the
 Payne-AIdT'ich tariff act, has iDeen appropriated for various works, pub lie and otherwise.
 The session died in song in the house; in solemn silence in the senate chamber There was a waving of handkerchiefs, a rustlin3 of summer draperies, and mild applause from the feminine spectators for Uncle Joe Cannon.
 In the senate broad grins of relief spread over the faces of the senators and there was mighty stretching of arms an as indication of relief from tension and strain.
 The session that died so quietly has been important, though stormy Open ing with a promise of bitter conten- tentions that would stifle legislative activity and smother legislation, it closed with a l.st of important legis- latiye enactments to it's credit that has set new record for a single session of congress. President Taft won all along the line. His railroad bill, statehood bill, campag gn publicity bill, conservation bill and postal say ings bank bill have been enacted into law. Besides these, he has approved a $52,000,000 river and harbor i'm provement bill and a good-sized pub lie buildings bill, but he registered a protest against the pork barreP' bills, which have been permitted to pass unnoticed for some years.
 The total cost of the Sixtieth con gress was about $2,0S0,000,0 0,000, and it first congress will not be far short of this amount.
 The most spectacular feature of the session now closed was the Ballinger- Pinchct investigation. This was un- dertaken by a special committee of congress to inquire into relations of Secretary Ballinger with the disposal of valuable mineral and coal lands in Alaska, as well as an investigation of his policy in dealing with oil, mineral, coal and water power sites on the public domain in the continental United States. Clifford Pinchot, for mer chief forester, attacked Secre- vation, as the policy of dealing with public lands has come to be known, and was separated from the govern ment service by President Taft. Since then, much bitterness has been evi- denced by partisans of the secretary and MT. Pinchot, and the hearings were characterized by sensational in cidents that eclipsed interest in the work of congress.
 Then came Representative Martins charges of bad management in the Philippines, followed with a sensa- tion in the dying hours of the session caused by Senator Cores announce ment that a bribe had been offered him in connection with the disposal of the lands of the five civilized tribes of Indians in Oklahoma.
 But the one act of congress that attracted the greatest interest throughout the country was the over throw of Speaker Cannon's power in the house on March 27, when new and larger committee on rules was named and the speaker was made in eligible to membership, curbing to a large extent the power which he was often charged with using arbitrarily.

Champ Clark Raps the Republicans

Washington, D. C.-Representative Champ Clark, Democratic leader in the house, commenting on the result of the session just ended, said The Republicans have begun the old game of claiming everything, but it is a case of 'whistling to keep up their courage while going through a graveyard They are now bragging that they have fulfilled their promises. Their big the tariff downward-they utterly failed to fulfill, and they are now in for good trouncing,"

A GOOD SUGGESTION.
Call to Road Overseers and 1nspec~
tors to Hold Meeting.-Discuss
Roads.

MIR. Editor: want to offer a sug-.'
gestion through your paper to our
county supervisor. It is simply to
call a convention of his five hun
dred road overseers to meet In the
court house at as early date as pos
sible-say on Saturday, for nearly
every one comes to town on that
day anyway. Right now would be a
good time for the ground is too wet
to plow and very little work Of any
sort can be. done. There would be
no need for some ''prominent man"
from afar to be invited to address
the meeting on theoretical road
building. Just let the oVerseers get
together and discuss in their own
way the best plans for good, prae-
tical road working with the means
at their command. Many Of these
overseers are good road workers
while the majority of them would
have an opportunity to learn a
great many things they ought to
know-for instance, that it is much
more satisfactory to have ditch on
each side Of the road than to have
only one and that one in the middle
of the road.
Then again let the newly appoint
ed road inspectors attend this con-
vention and learn something Of the
overseers and the conditions Of the
roads under their respective jris-
dictions.: -: q
This would be a good time for
the supervisor to demonstrate the
usefulness Of those King road drags
he has ordered: and to encourage
their use. on all the. roads in the
Tcounty. This King road drag is the
simplest yet most effective piece Of
road machinery that has ever been
invented. There should be one in
every SECTION Of road IN the county.
It would give us smooth hard roads
and save lot Of hard labor-labor
that is often misapplied and mis-
directed on account of the incompe-
tency Of the road overseer.
This brings me back to the begin
1ing. Let us teach our overseers
how to turn labor on the roads to
the best advantage. Let the SUPER
visor call a convention Of the road
overseers Of Newberry county.
Citizen.
P. S.: If the chamber Of commerce
would set 'em up to dinner or open
keg Of nails the overseers would
attend the convention to man.

COUNTY FARMERS UNION.
Inaugurates Corn Contest. confined
to Members Of Union.-Names
Entered on or Before May l.

The regular monthly meeting Of
the County Farmers Union was
held last Saturday and was one OF
much interest.
It was unanimously decided to
have a corn contest among members
of the union this year. Already $50
have been subscribed and it is con-
tidently expected that much more
will be added to the fund before the
time for closing the list Of names OF
contestants which will be May l. All
names must be given to the county
secretary, J. B. @ Neal Holloway,
on or before May ! or they will be
debarred. The prizes will be dd-
vided into $25.OO, $500 and $1,000
If more than $4,000 are secured,
prizes will be awarded in same pro-
portion.
The rules governing the details of
the contest will be published soon IN
both county papers.
\ hearty vote Of thanks was given
Summer Bros. company for their
public spirit in offering prizes for
the largest yield Of corn. Many ex-
pressions of commentator were
heard that this large firm had shown
such interest in an increased corn
weld in this county and have shown
their confidence in Newberry coun-
ty soil by putting up their money
as an encouragement to Our farmers
to increase their corn yields.

AT THE OPEBA EoUsE.
Meadow Brook Farm.

The. play as a a:diversion from the
every day troubles of life seems to
be in the most popular favor nova
days. Of course there are many
theatre goers who prefer the serious
rather than the ludicrous when
making their selections from the
many theatrical entertainments Of
fered and the theatrical producer is
kept constantly on the alert to sup
ply the popular demand.
Fortunate is the producer who can
strike the fancy Of both classes Of
play goers as has been the case with
W. F. Mann who offers to Newberry
theatre goers his latest addition to
his long list of successes, "Meadow-
Brook Farm" which comes to New
berry on Saturday, March 18th.
"Meadow-Brook Farm is one Of
those real wholesome plays which
leaves such a lasting delicious, never
to7be forgotten taste in the memories
of both classes Of play goers.

SUNDAY MORNING FIRE.
Residence of MIR. Frank R. Huntez
Practically Destroyed Origin
Fire Unknown.

Sunday morning about five o o'clock
Mr.. and Mrs. F. R. Hunter, who live
at the corner Of Boundary and
Caldwell streets, discovered that
their residence was on fire. They
were awakened by an explosion Of
some kind, just what it was no one
seems to know. The fire at that time
was but a small blaze between the
ceiling and roof of the kitchen. 1t
spread very rapidly and before the
fire department reached the building
the fire was practically under the
entire roof. There was strong pres
sure from the water works and af-
ter the department began playing on
the fire it was soon under control.
Only the roof including the joists,
was burned. Considerable damage
was done, however, to the furniture
and building by water. None of the
furniture, except the kitchen furn-
ture, was completely destroyed by
the fire.
Mr.. Hunter had $500 insurance
on the building and $1,000 on the
furniture.
It was thought by some that the
fire ORIGINATED from the electric
wires but that has been investigated
by Messrs. Sehumpert and Dunston
Of the power plant, and; it is not
probable that the electric wires had
anything to do with the origin Of che
fire.
Others say that probably the fire
resulted from the stove fue but
that seems hardly probable as there
had been no fire in the stove for
some hours, and the stove fine was
well built and carefully protected.
To repair the building will cost
probably as much as to put up a new
one. It is fortunate for the, section
of the town in which the fire oc-
Cured that there was no breeze and
the fremen were enabled to confne
the fire to the one building. II
there had been some members Of the
fire company on duty at the engine
house so that the hose wagon could
have come out promptly when the
alram was turned in, it would have
been possible to have saved the
building with very little damage.
There has been sufficient losses from
fires recently to convince almost any
community Of the need Of some paid
fremen.
