Vt has been called to the attention
Of the Cairo City Gas Company that

Cairo, a party introducing what he
calls a GAS REDUCING VALVE,
advising that for so mica money, he
will guarantee to save you on your
gas bill, and which we desire TO adj
wise can only be done BY reducing
the pressure and rendering poor ser
vice. This compahy discontinued the
practice Of running three-fourth inch
services and have introduced the
practice of using nothing smaller than
one and quarter inch service from
the main to the consumers meter, in
an ehdeavor to furnish satisfactory
service
The use of the gas reducing valve,
which this party is trying to intro
dnee will give a very unsatisfactory
service and this is to advise tina,
where complaints are made that gas
service Is not satisfactory and we
find this valve has been placed on the
service, we shall be compelled to re-
fuse to clear your trouble where this
reducing valve is found.

proposed appropriation for the Inn
provement of the Missouri river under
the 6-foot permanent channel 100000.

Commerce, which has been preparing

Dor bill. concluded its work today and
viii report to the full committee next
Thursday. The subcommittee which
is headed by Senator Nelson of Min
nesota, will refer back to the full
committee, without recommendation,
the two items which caused most OF
the discussion in the senate when the
last river and harhor bill passed that
body. They were the especial items
for attack for Senator Burton--the
Missouri river and the proposed Sa-
bine-Neches Canal in Texas. Senator
Bailey is the friend ana defender and
sponsor for the latter and may be
depended on to fight 1t out with Bar
ton il the discussion reaches the SEN
ate.
Senators Warner and Stone, eaen
of whom has an amendment to the
house bill providing for Missouri river
appropriations, will contend for the
rights of the people of Missouri to
have the stream improved according
to the project already approved. SEN
ator Burton opposed not only these
two items, but the lakes-to-the-gulf
and several other appropriations in
the committee last year, but was over
ridden in the committee. He then con-
tinued the fight when the bill came
up before the senate, but encountered
the steam roller there, and his oppo-
sition awaited him little except in the
way of few amendments to which
the friends of the items he opposed
agreed to.
There is reason for stating that
the Missouri will be taken care OF,
but the amount may nos De as large
as might be expected, in view of the

IN PARTY WRANGLE
FRACTIONAL DIFFERENCES IN MA
TIcNAL PROHIBITION PARTY
MAY RESULT SERIOUSLY.
Editor of DRY" Paper Makes War on
Two Charmen-Traitor to Par
ty For Discouraging Con-
tributions,

Chicago, Jan. 25.-Factional differ
ences within the Prohibition party
which for several months have been
manifested in a controversy between
William r. +. Ferguson, editor of the
National Prohfbitionist, and National
Chairman Charles r. Jones and State
Chairman Alonzo e. Wilson, were
given a thorough airing at melting
of the national committee of the par
ty yesterday at the Hotel LaSalle.
The fight came to a head when Mr..
Jones presented report in which he
denounced Ferguson and the National
Prohibitionist and accused the editor
OF disloyalty to the party.
Accusation Is Read.
Mr.. Jones quoted an editorial from
the National Prohihitfonist of Dec. s,
1910, in which Ferguson mad declared
that because of the absolute and
hopeless inefdciency" of the Jones All
ministration, and because of support
given "the corrupt personal machine"
of State Chairman Wilson, Prohibit
tionists should no longer furnish the
national committee with funds,
Adoption of Chairman Jones report
by the national committee would
mean the reputation of the National
Prohibitionist and also the practical
reading of Ferguson out of the party.
The members of the committee, OF
whom about sixty we're present from
All parts of the United States, wran.
gled over the question throughout yes
,terday, and expect to come to a vote
on the subject some time today.
Ferguson Stands pat.
Ferguson was summoned before the
committee late in the afternoon to de-
TEND himself, and talked for three
quarters Of an hour, standing pat on
the statements published in the Ma
tional Prohibitionist. and reiterated
his charges against Jones and Wilson.
He had not finished when adjourn
ment was taken, and was granted per-
mission to continue this morning
Mucn bitterness was displayed
throughout the day Friends Of Fer
grson evidently were in the minority
on the committee, but they were non :
