Washington, ID. c., July 19.-Louis-
lana planters and producers OF sugar
made determined stand on the tar
in before the house sugar trust com
mittee today declaring that the re-
duction OF sugar duties would ruin
domestic production of cane sugar
and that free sugar would annihilate
both the cane and beet sugar indus
tries Of the country. Chairman Mard-

disagreed with their tariff ideas.
IF you solons," declared Prof. w.

tic sugar production. Rig planters

age to scrape up enough to start over
again in some tropical country but
the small growers would be ruined

Miners Killed In Shaft.

Dubois. Pennsylyania.-Twenty-one
miners were killed in an explosion in
the shaft of the Cascade Coal & Coke
Company's mine at Sykesville. nine
miles from here. The explosion &C.
Cured at $50 o'clock but il was after
midnight before the extent of the &c.
cident was known.
Neither mine officials nor mine In
spectors are able to assign cause for
the explosion. as there are no suryiy-
ors from which to gain an explana.
tson. but II is the general belief that
some OF the men drilled into a pocket
of gas. The shaft is known as a non
gaseous one and Fire Boss John
Brown reports he Was through the
heading where the explosion occurred
but an hour before and found no
traces of gas.

Washington, ID. c., July 10. = The
most drastic campaign publicity leg
islation ever passed in either branch
of congress was adopted by the SEN
ate late yesterday. practically with
out a dissenting vote. Using the pre-
election publicity bill passed by the
house of representatives as a basis.
the senate constructed during the
day a proposed law with the follow
ing important features:
No candidate for the senate or
house shall spend in his election more
than sum equal to 10 cents for each
voter in his district or state.
No senatorial candidate shall spend
a total of more than $4,000 in a pri-
mary and general election; and no
candidate for the house shall spend
more than $1,000.
Publicity must be given to all pri-
mary campaign contributions and ex-
penditures
All general election expenses must
be made public before the election,
beginning fifteen days before the cleo
ton. and making publication each six
uoyS TIC ticCtlOH. All
OF political jobs must be made pub
lie.
The bill further makes II illegal to
promise political places in order to
secure election support; or to aid in
influencing the election of any mem
Der OF state legislature.
The bill will be the subject OF
probably a long conference between
the two houses. II originated in the
house as part OF the democratic leg
islative program and was designed to
require publication of expenditures
before election. which is not required
by the existing publicity law The
republicans in the house unsuccess-
fully attempted to extend the bill to
cover the primary election expenses.
In the senate today the primary cleo
ton amendment. coupled with more
radical amendments. was adopted
with little opposition.
