Fire was discovered in the repair
shop of A. NJ. Rood of West Burke
about noon Wednesday, March 9.
Mr.. Rood was at dinner, and had been
absent from the building some twen-
ty minutes when the alarm was given.
1t was seen at once that the shop
could not be saved. Mr.. Rood was
we'll insured but Mr.. Watchie, who
kept a stock of carriages and sleighs
IN the building was not insured, and
his loss is understood to be some over
thousand dollars. 1t was only by
the most strenuous efforts that the
residence of c. o. Cheney, which was
but a few feet from the burning
building was saved. The men. and
women too, worked with untlring en-
ergy, and the little engine. which has
proven friend in need so many times
IN the past, saved the day.

PRESIDENT TAFT OBTAINS MORE
LEGISLATION THAN ANY Ex-
ECuTIVE BEFORE HIM.
SIGNS STATEHOOD BILL
TARIFF REVISION, RAILWAY LEG.
IsLATIoN, CONSERVATION,
STATEHOOD, ETC.

Congressional leaders
confidently expect TO wind up the
present session this week and adjourn
not later than Saturday. If the SEES
sion is carried beyond that time 1t will
be because OF amendments to the gen
eral deficiency bill OF complications in
connection with the omnibus public
building bill.
II is pointed out by Republican lead
ers that there never has been a Con
gress where n President has obtained
the amount of legislation as has re-
suited from the demands of President
Taft: starting in with a demand for
revision of the tariff, he procured this
AT an extraordinary session. Then at
the beginning of the present session
he demanded railway legislation, for
ward conservation policy, statehood
for New Mexico and Arizona, postal
savings banks and the regulation Of
injunctions.
Bills on all these subjects have
passed both branches of Congress with
the exception of the ant-injunction
measure. That will have to wait I'M
til next session, but ii is said the pros.
poets are good for its passage at that
time.
All the regular supply bills have
passed both houses except the general
deficiency bill. That was passed by
the house Saturday and will be re.
ported to the Senate not later than
Tuesday.
The postal savings banks bill is
still before the Senate. President Taft
approves the house bill and it seems
reasonably certain that the Senate
will accept II.
The rivers and harbors bill Is await.
ing the Presidents signature and he
soon will have the omnibus public
buildings bill. With both of these
measures before him he is in post
ton to command that action be taken
on such other legislation as he feels
should pass.
President Taft Monday will sign the
statehood bill. II is likely that there
will be n number OF claimants for the
pen used in signing that historic
amendment. President Taft probably
will use two pens In approving the bill
and give one to Delegate Andrews.

other to Delegate Cameron, represent.
