proceed to help defeat the amendment.
II those who are the real enemies OF this
measure would come into the open it's
friends could deal with them far more

Mr. President no one ever saw this
country in just the condition 1t IS today.
Never since this government was iauncn-

NO part of the government seems to
escape challenge or criticism. 1t Is fast
becoming popular to scott at the Consti-

HEPBURN SCORES POINT
SECURES APPROVAL OF HIS
RESOLUTION OF INQUIRY.
Demand by Idaho Senator for In
formation Regarding Cost of
Irrigation Projects.

Through the aid of the democrats Sena-
tor Hepburn won a victory over several
of the Senate leaders on the passage of a
resolution he reported from the commit
tee on public lands.
The resolution called for information
from the Secretary of the Interior as to
the estimated amount Of money necessary
to complete irrigation projects under con-
struction or contemplated and as to the
estimated revenues from the sale Of pub
lie lands which will be available for the
irrigation projects.
Senator Carter opposed the passage of
the resolution and moved its reference
to the committee on irrigation, of which
he is chairman. He maintained that the
committee had all the information called
for in the resolution. Senator Hepburn
commended that the committee on public
lands needed the Information and earnest
ly urged the passage of the resolution.
Senator Warren's Comment.
Il see no occasion for any heat In re-
gard to this matter" remarked Senator
Warren.
II am tired of that expression re-
torted Senator Hepburn. "If my earnest
ness ia to be twitted as heat Of expression
every time I speak In my own way. &C
cording to my own disposition. it would
become very much more intOlerable. 1
am tired of having senator's on this floor

porter in attributing to me heat because
am earnest In insisting upon my rights"
IL was about to say" replied Senator
Warren, that 1 saw no occasion for heat
and that l, personally, did not propose
to become heated. Now. II the senator
from Idaho thinks that applies to him he

Public Uprising Predicted.

when those who are ill able TO meet
the burdens of government see it's enor-
nous expenditures continue to increase
larger armies and larger navies, increased
burdens everywhere-and learn. further
more. that all this must be met by a tax
on consumption while incomes which sus-
tain luxury and breed idleness and
idiocy go untaxed, they will have little
mercy with you in the hour which you
must plead with them against radical
changes in the government.
lido not know how long we can deal
with "A patient people in this way. But
/ venture to prophesy not much longer.
Il hope, therefore, the governors and
legislatures of this country will be brave
enough to do their duty in this matter.
1t Is time the people in this broad land
bestir themselves upon this vital ques-
ton before 1t is too late to do so.
1T would be nothing less than a catas-
trophe If this amendment should be de-
feated. If We are going also to be cut
off from an appeal to the court. This is
Senator Borah's Opinion.
Senator Borah's conclusions were as
follows:
That the proposed amendment adds
nothing to the taxing power of the ma
tional government. This power was COM
plete. unfettered, plenary, before. 1t can
be no more than that should the pro-
posed amendment be adopted
The proposed amendment does not deal
or propose to deal with the question OF
power, which is already complete, but
simply with the manner and method Of
its exercise and use of that power.
No one has ever questioned the power
of the national government to lay an In
come tax, for, as was said by Justice
White. the question has always been
whether an admittedly unlimited power
to tax has been used according to the
instruction as to method, and 1t was
to remedy the method alone that the
amendment was submitted.

NEW CLAM INDUSTRY.
Ohio Man Has Pitched His Tent
and Gone to Work.

Oskaloosa has a new industry. c.
G. Davis, of Toledo, Ohio, we'll
known clam hunter, is the promoter.
On the banks of the Skunk he has
pitched his tent land has started the
work of removing clans, from that
stream. He has his cookery and
utensils and tent located just below
the water works and at this place &C.
ton Is taking place. Mr.. Davis ex.
poets to remove one car load OF
shells from the river at this place.
Skunk river has some of the best
shells to be found anywhere" said
Mr.. Davis to Herald reporter last
evening, "and have hunted in many
states and know OF what l speak,"
There are many of the sand.shell
CLAIMS In the river and this is the
shell in which most of the valuable
pears are found. Three beds OF
shells have been found in South
Skunk and the clam hunter believes
that he will easily get one car lot
or about twenty tons.
Mr.. Davis is well informed man
on the clam business and is very in
| teresting to talk to about the hunting
Of the shells. He stated that an ordi
nary clam is thought to be about 100
years of age and very small one
| he held in his hands as a specimen
he stated was about fifteen years Mr.
Davis had white muket shell in
| which was rose-slug. He stated
that it was one of the finest slugs
that had ever been found and that
the value of it was about $50. Many
pearls and slugs of seasons finding
are in his possession but he will moi
offer them for sale until after the sea
son is over, and when he returns t.
| his home.
In the course of twenty years Mr.
Davis stated that he believed that
all the CLAIMS will have been used, an6
that buttons will be again made Of
wheat or some other substance. His
reason for believing this is because
buttons have been made from clan
shells for a period of only about TWEEN
ty years and already they are begin
ming to get very scarce.
Mr.. Davis stated that the price Of
shells has decreased wonderfully the
past summer. The reason for this il
the low water. Everybody is hunting
shells and many shells have been TAX
en- from the waters. Clam shells in
the Skunk river are of a high price
because of their scarcity, and some Of
them will bring as much as 500 pei
ton. Shells will be scarce next year
and will bring a high price.
| While the reporter and Mr.. Davis
were discussing the clam shell indus
try, an elderly gentleman, w. G. Brad
shaw, of Canton, Kansas, stated tha
his town had built a factory for the
Hawkeye Pearl Button Co., and thai
the manufacturing plant was in oper
alton and one hundred men we're EN-
ployed. The people are well pleased
with the factory.

Immense Corn,

office a splendid sample of the corn

owned by him and Frank w. Else
The corn is white ell plant" and
yellow dent" varieties and the size
and quality compared favorably with
anything the season has produced
The ears are large and the grain
splendidly matured. Some of the
best corn will run ninety bushels tc
the acre and in patches will yield one
hundred bushels. None of the cror
will go below sixty bushels in the
poorest spots, and the average yielt
will be between seventy-five anc
eighty bushels. The fields are sait
to have been about the best corr

SMALL CLOUD BURST
a.. L.-IFII-. ? .FttF1Ti7 = wv s'1Fe7 W
Much Small Damage is Done by
Storm Friday Evening.

The hardest storm Of the entire sea
son broke over Oskaloosa and vicin.
ity about eight o'clock, Friday even
ing resulting in small sized cloud
burst and a tornado Some damage
resulted from trees blown down,
buildings unroOfed, cellars flooded
and lawn decorations laid fiat. The
damage extends to the country dis
tricts, where much corn was blown
over in addition to the other damage
done by wind and water.
The heavy fall of rain was preceded
by a peculiar electric display. The
low lying clouds were lit up by in
cessant flashing of lightning that
varied in color from a light blue to a
brilliant pink, and every color of the
rainbow was on display at times. The
clouds would be violet in one part of
the heavens and at the same time the
opposite part of the horizon would
show a glow as red as fire. The
strange thing about the display was
the fact that no thunder accompanied
the celestial pyrotechnics. Only once,
about seven o'clock, faint rumble
being perceptible. The appearance of
the clouds was different from any.
thing else of the season in the storm
line. When Illuminated by the cleo
tricaI discharges they had the appear.
ance of a great solid mass of fog
drifting only little distance above
the earth and moving from northwest
to south east. There were no storm
centers, the clouds appearing to be
evenly massed over the entire heavens
The rain came as the termination
of steady drizzle that prevailed dur
ing the afternoon. A hard thunder
shower fell about $50, lasting but a
few minutes. Then came the fire
works, increasing in intensity and
briliiancy from seven to eight O'Clock
and followed by the deluge.
The rain was very heavy. It lasted
less than an hour, but in that time
it is Estimated that from two to three
inches OF water fell In the business
and paved districts the water stood
even from curb to curb and at inter
sections overfan the sidewalks In
places where the drainage from dis
tricts met, great ponds. several feet
in depth were formed. The water
was driven by the wind and whipped
into mist. At times one could not
see the distance OF a half block and
the storm rssembled a heavy and rap
idly moving fog. The road of the
storm was terrific and where the rain
beat upon tin or metal roof CONVEX
sation in loud tones could not be dis
tinguished Electric light and tele
phone wires suffered in parts of town
and fruit and shade trees were blown
down and limbs were strewn along
some streets. ,.. SEe,
Several cases of damage are report
ed where windows were left open and
where the storm was ltaus permitted
to enter, Il soaked the c'tils room.

Immediately following the cold

breath of winter and the promise OF
frost was in the air. The mercury

the cold would have been greater
