licitOr, Dies at the General Hos
pital in POcatellO
PocatellO Tribune

Pocatello Tribune
Miss La Rossay Clark of Etna,
Wyoming, travelling saleswoman for
scissors and needles, died at the Poca-
'tello general hospital at an early
hour this morning from the effects
of swallowing large dose of carbolic
acid by mistake, while a guest at the
Pocatello house night before last.
Miss Clark came to Pocatello from
up around Rigby last Monday and
took a room at the Pocatello house.
Some time during the evening she
made mistake in taking some medi-
cine and got hold of a carbolic acid
bottle. DR.. H. A. Castle was sum-
moned and administered the usual
remedies and the young woman was
felt to be out of danger. Last night,
however, she grew worse and was re-
moved to the general hospital. where
the end came.
She was about rs years old and ac-
cording to Mrs. Charles H. Smith of
the Poactello house, was modest,
neat and pleasant appearing woman.
Her father will arrive in Pocatello
tomorrow. The body is being held
at Percy G. Silver's undertaking par
lOrs, pending his arrival.

THE END Is NOT YET
The Insurgents in Congress Are Not
Baffled by the Threat of the
President 'N

Washington Jan. 1O.-The senate
committee on public lands today re-
convened and amended it's resolution
providing for the Ballinger-P inchot
investigation so as to leave to the
house the method of selecting its
membership of the committee.
The senate adopted the resolution
as reported by the committee after
defeating the amendment proposed
by Seantor Newlands which would
permit amy official or ex-official"
whose conduct might be considered,
to appear In person or be represented
by counsel,
Among the significant develop
ments in the insurgent situation was
the return to the, insurgent camp of
Representative Gardner of Massachu-
sets, son in law of Senator Lodge. "It
is unfair to represent house insur-
gents as being opposed to President
Taft" said Mr.. Gardner today. "They
are associated for the single purpose
of freeing the lower house of con-
gress from autocracy."
The power of the party caucus will
be invoked in the house in the effort
to suppress the revolt of the insur-
gents. Republican leaders decided to
day that whenever the insurgents, as
body, differ from the majority, the
caucus shall determine the party
course.
Insurgents are Defiant
A defiant statement which stamps
the attempt to read them out of the
republican party as unfair and ma
licious" and defines Speaker Cannon
administration in the house as eli
max of autocratic control was issued
last night after meeting of the in
surgent republican members of the
house.
The members decline to be put out
of the party and announce their in
tention to carry to finish the fight
against the speaker and the organi-
Zation. The statement follows:
''In the effort to becloud the real
issue an unfair and malicious attempt
is being made to represent us as OPP
posed to President Tafts administra-
tion and policies. There is no sembl-
ance of truth in the accusation. With

now an absolute economic necessity.
and as rule those who emigrate to
the United States are impelled by a
desire for better conditions rather
than by the necessity of escaping from
intolerable ones. This fact should
largely modify the natural incentive
to treat that immigration movement
from the standpoint OF sentiment and
permit its consideration primarily as
an economic problem"
The commission presents for the
consideration Of congress several pro-
posals by which restriction of inmi-
grafton might be effected, including a
reading and writing test the exclusion
of unmarried unskilled laberers, lirni-
tations in the number arriving at any
one port and from particular races, as
well as in the amounts of money re-
quired to be in their possession on
arrival. All the members or the COM
mission do not concur in the feasibility
OF the reading and writing test.
Efforts to exclude all British East
Indians through an agreement with
Great Britain, the unsIilled of the
Latin European countries, the continu-
ance of the present Chinese exclusion
laws. as well1as present regulations
with regard to Japanese and Korean
immigrants, the passage OF the house
bill for the deportation of alien crimi-
nails, with changes in the immigration
law to make it apply to alien seamen.
and the appointment of an additional
assistant secretary of commerce and
labor to determine immigration ap.
peals, are specially recommended.

C. A. FRASER OF FARGO, VICE
PRESIDENT OF MINNESOTA.
FEDERATION OF LABOR MAKES
BIG REPORT AT MEETING OF
EXECUTIVE COUNCIL.

-
The executive council af the Min
nesota State Federation. of Labor held
it's second quarterly meeting for the
current year in Minneapolis last Sun
day. The session was held in Union
Temple. % Washington avenue south,
and every member of the council but
Geo. w. Rippy, Brainerd, was present.
There were also several men proni-
nent in the. labor movement in the
state at the meeting, and nearly all
Of them had something to contribute
to the interest and profit of the gath
erings.
Vice Pres. G. A. Fraser of Fargo,
reported conditions in the Ninth con-
gressional district. The substance of
his report was to the effect that or
ganized labor was doing we'll in Fargo
and Grand Forks, but the labor move :
ment was badly in need of assistance
In other parts Of the state; that good
organization work could be done i'm
the smaller cities and towns, and there
was a crying necessity for it. Mr..
Fraser said also that the unions i'm
Fargo were prosperous and increasing
in membership; that the Painters
union had an enrolment of 70, and
that the laundry workers, tin workers
and BARRIERS were eager for organiza-
ton, as they were forced now to work
long hours and for what pay they
could get; that the printers and press
men were doing well, and had recently
helped to defeat an effort OF Orange
Judd to establish a non-union print
shop in the city, and that steps were
