Regarded as Important.

This point, among the opponents of the
Illinois senator, is regarded as an inn
portant one, for the reason that a ma
jority vote only is required for a privi-
legged motion in the form proposed, white
a two-thirds vote is required to pass a
motion of the highest privilege, as a mo-
ton to expel a member of the Senate.

JUDGE HUNT ACCUSED
Of BEFR|END|NC TRUST
Land Owners From Montana
Oppose His Confirmation
by the Senate.

Charges filed with the Senate commit
OF Judge William H. Hunt, now serving
as associate judge of the Court OF Gus
toms Appeals, who was appointed by
President Taft as an additional circuit
judge for the ninth judicial circuit for
service on the new commerce court, were
the subject Of an executive hearing to-
day. Judge Hunts opponents are land
owners in the vicinity of Anaconda,
Mont. who claim that their lands were
ruined by the fumes from the great Ana
conda smelter.
Judge Hunt was on the district bench
in Montana in 1903, when the land owners
began proceedings for damages against
the smelling company.
Accused Of Delaying Case.
1t is charged that he appointed a special
master to take testimony and that the
case was delayed in every way possible
in order to assist the corporation. 1t is
charged also that his decisions in the
case contained matter that did not ap-
pear in the testimony, but that was
brought forward only by the briefs Of the
smelters' lawyers.
The chief argument was made today
by c. ]. Sawyer of Anaconda. During
the hearing he was asked why the land
owners never had sought relief in the
state courts.
In Grasp Of Trust.
He replied that the state was in the
grasp of the smelling trust. and that
justice was impossible. He said also
that the legislators were Influenced by the
smelters. and he claimed that the trust
had representatives in the Senate.
Mr.. Sawyer was asked to amplify his
arguments with a written brief.

Of MAJORITY
TO OPPOSE LOR|MER
Prediction Made That Res0Iu-
ton to Unseat Illinois
Senator Will Pass.

Claims that majority Of the Senate is
opposed to Senator Lorimer in his fight
to retain his seat and that a resolution
to declare his seat vacant would pass are
being made today by several Of the lead
ers Of the opposition.
In backing up their claims these sena-
tors say that at least twenty-five demo-
cratic votes can be counted against Mr..
Lorimer. and that at least ten progress
sive or insurgent votes will be found in
the same column. Counting the usual
number of absentees. it is estimated that
ten more votes against Mr.. Lorimer will
mean his defeat. and those ten, it Is
claimed, are to be found among the ranks
Of the conservative republicans.

Majority Vote Only.

The form Of the motion which
Senator Beveridge has made and the
discussion Of it yesterday afternoon by
Senator's Beveridge. Burrows and Hale
has determined that only a majority
vote is necessary to decide the struggle
which is being made. The motion de-
clares that the election of Mr.. Lorimer
was not legal and that his seat is,
therefore. vacant.
The discussion yesterday settled the
point that the resolution was a privi-
legged resolution. but not q matter Of
the highest privilege. The the resolution
was one that provided for the expul-
sion of Senator Lorimer. or il the mat
ter was looked upon in that light in the
Senate. it is explained. it. would be a
matter Of the highest privilege and
take precedence over all other matters.
It was decided, however. that the Lori
mer resolution must, when the Senate
sees mt. give way to other legisla-

To the Editor of The Republican:
 l see an editorial in your morning paper saying We should take up a subscription to send Mark Smith tO Washington to plead our cause for statehood. That is adding insult to injury Now wouldn't that jar you? Old Mark was bred where the mead ow grass is blue. therefore he is a thoroughbred and no thoroughbred was ever quitter Now We failed to send Mark to Washington when We should have done so and to call on him in the hour of our extreme need looks like We are the quitters. In conclusion I have this to say. That we will get statehood under our own constitution and Mark Smith will be our first senator.

SOME VANISHING LINES

Astonishing Opportunities at BaIke's
 Big Curio Store.

During the past two weeks there has been a heavier run on the ostrich feather stock of Balke's Big Curo store than had ever been known More plumes have been sold in that time than within any two months since the opening of that department of the Big Curio store
 Naturally. heavy inroads have been made upon the stock until of some varieties there are only one or two plumes of each left Therefore much deeper cut will be applied to such plumes. On white willow plumes there will be a cut below the pre- viously low price of from & to S15 Those who have seen the stock will understand what this will mean to purchasers

SUNNY
 MONDAY

The lasting qualities of Sunny Monday laundry soap mean economy to the woman who uses it. Its wonderful dirt-starting qualities are re- tained until the cake is worn to wafer, and as 1t is a hard soap which does not wash away quickly, one bar of it will go as far as two bars of any yellow laundry soap. You spare your pocketbook as we'll as your clothes when you use Sunny Monday.

 Now. there are no better pIumes in the world than these. They are all Of native Arizona stock for the Big CuriO store handles no other. Not withstanding their excellence they are sold far below the price of inferior feathers.
