Republican Differences.

hN hNhiONio . VI hhc OAN AN BhO
lican gang in New Mexico, who
desire to have the constitution
written in the interest of corpor-
ations and special interests, are
finding that some of the purest
and best of the members of the
republican party have OF her
plans. There are those who be-
lieve, with the progressive re-
publicans, like Garfield and Cum
Minis, that the issue is between
the special interests and corpora
tions on the one hand and the
common people on the other.
Garfield demands actions and
measures that will Immediately y
check and ultimately prevent the
sinister influence now exerted
over the public officers and polit-
ical activities by the especial
interests" and he suggests the
initiative and referendum, a cor
poration commission and the en-
iorcement of penalties for the
use OF corporate funds for polit-
ical purposes among other rem
edies.
Senator Cummins, of Iowa, a
Lille long republican, who has for
years been fighting in the inter-
est OF the people against republi-
cans OF the stripe who are now
opposing, in New Mexico, the
initiative and referendum, a cor
poration commission and an
equalization board elected by the
people, defined the issue between
republicans in his speech as tenn
porary chairman of The Iowa
republican state convention as
follows:
1T relates wholly to those
questions which concern the con.
troll, regulation and restriction of
the powers and practices OF COM
blncd or concentrated wealth. Or
to phrase 1t again-to the undue
and disproportionate share which
corporate capital is able to wiring
from the profits of industry, and
the injustice II is able to inflict
upon helpless individuals and
dcfcnseless communities.
We trust that the progressive
republicans of New Mexico will
be successful in their efforts to
have the issues clearly presented
to the members of that party.
The republican central com.
mated by corporate and other
special interests, failed to give
expression to its sentiments re.
garding any feature OF the con,
stitution, but the progressive
republicans are demanding thai
candidates for the constitutional
convention define their positions,
especially with reference To the
election of all officers from con,
stable TO governor. 1t is full,
realized that the special interest.
Will not only oppose direct legis
latiou by the people and a cor
porate commission, but will advo
cate the appointment OF Judge,
and many other officers, uudel
the specious pretence that tn,
people are not capable of govern
ing themselves.

Dividend
Declared Upon

Additional Disbursement Places the
Stock on a Basis Of Four Per
Cent for the Year.

NEW YORK, Jan. &.-In accordance
with popular expectation, the directors Of
the United States Steel corporation an
nounced today. after the close of the stock
market, that dividends on the common
shares Of the corporation had reverted to
the original rate of 4 per cent annually.
The directors today declared a regular"
dividend Of / per cent and an extra divf-
dend of y OF 1 per cent. Dividends for the
previous quarters have been: For the first
quarter, n Of l per cent; for the second, Y
Of l per cent; for the third, l per cent, and
today's, tx per cent.
Although an extra dividend had long
been rumored in the market the behavior
OF the common shares during the day and
more particularly toward the close in no
way bore out the facts. According to
the best information there was a division
Of opinion among the directors and the
outcome was probably in doubt up to the
time of the meeting. Rumor credits the
Morgan faction in the board with having
favored an extra dividend. but Chairman
Gary declared after the meeting adjourned
that action had been unanimous.
The regular quarterly dividend was de-
clared on the preferred shares. For the
first time in the reports of the corpora
ton thee appeared an item Of So, 200, 900
to be taken from the reserve fund ITO
cover advanced mining royalties"

SOLDIER RIVER CASE UP
Effort Being Made TO Block the big
Drainage Proposition at
Logan.

LOGAN, Ia. Jan. 25.--(Specinl)-The SOL
dter river drainage case took precedence
over all other cases on the docket here
today and it is thought the case will oc-
cupy the entire week.
The present Soldier river drainage pro-
Ject contemplates a complete diversion Of
the Soldier river beginning at a narrow
point In the hill of Jackson township and
thence in a southwesterly direction through
the lower end Of Dray lake into the Mis-
souri, river. a distance Of &C miles, at an
estimated cort OF 100000, with damages
said to range from $4,000 to 0,OOO, all of
which is designed to reclaim 5000 acres
of swamp and other lands subject to
overflow during high waters of the Soldier.
The objections, as set forth by Attorneys
c. A. Bolter, Roadifer & Arthur, who ap-
pear for the DIRECTORS, may be stated as
follows: j. s. Wattles, engineer In charge,
is not a disinterested engineer as contem-
plated by law; the present plan has been
before the courts and decided against
each time. and from such decisions there
have been appeals taken; hat the present
engineering project does not follow the
natural course of drainage of the Soldier;
that the drainage. law Is unconstitutional
in that it doeE not provide damages OF
possible damagfs caused or hat may be
caused by changing the course Of a
stream and raising a water level in the
vicinity where there Is no right Of way;
that tho levees along the channe to be
constructed have none Of the specifications
required by modern engineering in the
construction OF levees.
In reply the attorneys for the promoters,
s. H. Cochran, Emmett FINLEY. L. w. Fall
Ion and c. w. Kellogg, state that the pres
ent petitioners and supervisors nave acted
under the new and not under the old drain
age law; that the present plan of drainage
by ]. s. Wattles is practically the same
as the plan recommended by Engineer A.
M. Mum, and c. G. Elliott, United States
expert drainage engineer; that the present
plan is by far less expensive thar other
plans suggested or recommended
Notwithstanding that the crops on the
Soldier river drainage districts nave been
greatly damaged each year during the last
seven years, yet each plan of relief up to
the present time has been defeated in litiga-
tons.

a minority report and carry the fight to the
floor of the house, In the Sixty-slxth con-
gross ship subsidy was defeated by but
three votes. and the feeling against It has
been growing smaller and smaller with

This year no doubt is expressed that II
tho measure passes the house It will easily
BIT put through the senate. President TAFT
is strongly urging the legislation, and tre
bill Of Representative Humphrey is sup
posed to embody the full views Of the ad-
ministration on tho subject. 1t is stated
that not a single amendment to the bill
VIII be made In committee.
Hitherto the subsidy legislation has come
from the committee on postofflces and post
roads, but this year the proponents of the
bill had 1t sent to the merchant marine
committee. A number of new members
