ADOLPH BUTLER
ON THE STAND
GAVE SOME EXCELLEN TEST.
MONY REGARDING LAND
AND ITS VALUE.
Based His Estimate on the Tonnage
Per Acre and Net Profit.

Adolph Butler, who was placed up
on the stand yesterday afternoon,
was continued on cros-examinatfon
this morning.
In 1907 lived in the town OF st.
Maries and farmed the Dolph Butler
ranch; put in between two and three
acres of garden, abodt an acre of po-
tatoes; cut timothy hay and sold to
VIM. Trueman 1O1 tons at $1O.75
per ton delivered in his barn in st.
Maries; cost $3.50 to cut and deliver
this hay; cleared So pen ton; base my
estimate of $175 per acre on two and
one-half to three tons per acre, or
a net profit of $40 to $24 per acre
At 10 per cent per annum interest
is made on 5000 to $24O per acre.
Could feed as well as sell the wild
hay on low lands; wild hay did not
bring as high price as timothy.
The witness also said: Did not
make improvements on my ranch on
the river because Agent Worley told
me that it would be no use as the
lands would be overfiowed. The In
dams wanted to settle on the river
but were forced to take land on the
west side-in the Palouse country.
About 100 heads of families wanted
to take their allotments on the river
My value of $50 per acre on low land
is based on the wild hay crop pro-
duced each year. l purchased my
ranch from the chiefs for $3O0-the
right to occupy the ranch as mine;
have rights on the reservation by
adoption of the Coe3r d'Alene tribe.
and treaty stipulations; the Butler
family all have rights for the same
reason. Have my allotment as the
southeast quarter of the southeast
quarter of section 16, given in 1908
when the Indians all secured their
allotments. This was verified in the
land Office.

a note to you. under date OF Deem

ton in the premises. You did not
answer, but on January 4 you had
conversation with him In which you
said you wished to make a state
ment which he should read in the
senate at the same time that my
message transmitting the record in
the CLAWS case reached there, and
that You thought you could induce
Senator Dolliver to introduce the
statement for you.
The secretary advised against
such a course; but asked you for
a recommendation as to accepting
Prices resignation. In order that he
might bring the matter to me, to
whom, he told you. 1t must ultimate
ly come, because mad considered
the CLAWS charges and had passed
upon them.
Ignored the Executive.
Without further conference with
the secretary, and before making a
report to him, you succeeded in max
ing public, by having 1t read In the
senate. a letter from you stating that
you had sufficiently disciplined
Messrs. Price and Shaw by repri-

this before that recommendation was
submitted to the secretary and me,
whose power and duty 1t was to de-
termine upon Prices admission as
to his completely and what action
should be taken with respect to his
resignation.
I'm order to understand the full
purport of your letter, II you admit
that completely of Price and Shaw in
the publication in the press, 1t
should be said that the gravity OF
the CLAWS charges was that Secre-
tary Ballinger and others were all af-

WASHINGTON, D. g.. Jan. s.
1t is suggested today that Clifford

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Jan. o.
On the subject of interstate commerce
in a special message cent to congress
President Taft, after cali
ing attention to the fact that large
number of orders issned by the In
terstate commerce commission have
been appealed from. says:
1T would not be proper to at
tempt to deprive any corporation of
the right of review by court of any
order or decree which, If undisturb-
ed, would rob it OF reasonable re-
turn on its investment or would sub
ject it to burdens that unjustly dis
criminate against 1t and in favor OF
other carriers similarly situated.
What is of supreme importance Is
that the decision of such a question
will be as speedy as the nature %
the circumstances viii admit. and
that a conformity of decision can BE-
assured SO as to bring amour az -
fectiye, systematic, scientific enforce
ment of the comerce law rather than
conflicting decisions and uncertainty
of final result.
Court OF Commerce.
For this purpose recommend
the establishment of a court of the
United States to be composed OF FIVE
judges. designated for such purpose
from among the circait judges Of the
United States court Of commerce.
which court shall be clothed with
original and exclusive jurisdiction
over the following classes of cases:
"First-All cases for enforcemnt,
Other wise than by adjudication and
for the collection OF penalty o. by
the infiietion of criminal punishment
OF any order OF the interstate CON-
meree commission other than for the
payment of money.
"Second-All cases brought to en-
join, set aside. annul. or suspend. any
order or requirement Of the intersta {
commerce commission.
"Third-All such cases as under

gress. He declared the dignity of
the presidential Office was being at
tackled and he would be unfaithful
to his trust If he submitted longer.
Mr.. Taft undoubtedly realizes full
ly what the dismissal of Forester
Pinchot means in political way. He
has been convinced for some time
that the so-called insurgents" and
other critics OF his administration
had enlisted the services of MIR. Pin
chot and practically we're defying
him to dismiss Pinchot from ONCE.
