The AK ONLY
CUT HALF OF
ITS NECK

Spend only $4,000 of the $4,000
appropriated for the maintenance of
a naval reserve for the state and the
bill will be approved was the ultima
tum sent this morning by Governor
West to those interested in the bill
and delegation is expected to ar
rive from Portland this afternoon and
enter into such an agreement with
the chief executive of the state.
The bill is among those which were
scheduled to be vetoed by the COVER
nor. The AK has never really de-
scended but for several days it has
been held over the bill and the threat
made that it will descend any minute
and the threats framed daily into
words of glaring letters in the pa
pers. These threats, publicly ut
tered threats, have evidently had the
effect of getting the friends of the
measure busy with the result of the
proffered compromise from the gov
ernor this morning and if it is ac-
cepted, the bill will be saved.
The agreement will stipulate that
a warrant is to be drawn for $4,000
which sum is to be Immediately re-
turned to the state treasury and the
remaining $4,000 will be allowed to
remain to be drawn upon from time
to time for the maintenance of the
reserve. When the bill passed the
two houses, it was discussed at length
and it seemed to be the unanimous
conviction of the legislators that the
least possible appropriation that the
reserve could get along with was
$25,OOO.

WEST VETOES
APPROPRIATION
FOR PAVILION

The labors of the Marion county
delegation both in the house and the
senate, for the passage of bill ap-
propriating $4,000 for the erection
of a pavilion at the state fair ground
have proven to have been all in vain
as Governor West, in the manipula-
tion of his hatchet upon all bills
which look as though they might car
ry about them even the suspicion Of
an appropriation, yesterday afternoon
applied it to this bill and the same
old pavilion must serve again at the
fair grounds for another two years
A bill was prepared and introduced
for the appropriation of this money
at the request of the state fair board
ais it was felt that the fair grounds
were badly in need of it, and the Ma
rion county delegation labored hard
for it in both houses, and brought
about it's successful passage.
Must Cut Down Appropriations.
The governor, in vetoing this bill,
says
Under ordinary circumstances |
would favor the erection OF this
building and the appropriation Of
money to defray the cost Of same,
but with the enormous appropria-
tions staring us in the face. and be-
ing aware of the great burdens which
are to be thrown upon the taxpayers
of this state, feel it my duty to dis
approve this measure. The erection
OF this building can be deferred for
at least two years without working
any serious hardship upon the fair
association.

MAY IMPROVE
OPERA HOUSE
NEXT SPRING

The erection of another story on
the Grand Opera House and the con-
struction of an addition on the south
side covering a width of Sc feet is a
plan which has been informally dis
cussed by the members of the local
lodge of Odd Fellows and when
spring comes the plan will probably
be carried into execution and also a
plan to completely remodel the in
terror of the opera house itself.
The improvement it is estimated
will represent an expenditure of
$4,000 or more-that is the addi-
tional story and the addition on the
side. The trustees when seen with
relation to the matter today stated
that no definite action had been taken
but admitted that the proposition had
been discussed at length; and also
admitted that when spring arrived,
the contemplated improvements
would probably be made. If carried
out the upper portion will probably
be used for Office rooms and the ad-
dition be made a part Of the opera
house or used for a store room.
1t is understood that w. H. Thiel-
son, who owns the adjoining prop
erty and whose building was de-
stroyed by fire lately, contemplates
building and that an arrangement
can be made with hi mfor wall to
be used by the two in common. Just
when Mr.. Thielson will build, or how
extensive a building he intends to
construct when he does build, could
not be learned.

SHIPPERS ASSERT THE
RATE RULING is A BIG
TRIUMPH OVER EXTORTION
CONTINUED frSm page one.)

President Daniel Willard, Balti-
more & Ohio: "There is only one
thing to do. That is to make effec
tive Louis w. Brandeis' efficiency
system. We must buy less material,
and pay less for what We get, if we
keep going"
President George F. Baer, Reading
railroad: sit is a great blow to rail-
roads. 1 don't see how some of them
are going to get along"
Vice-President E. w. McKenna,
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul: IF
the railroads had not anticipated
substantial increases in rates, wage
advances to emplsyes would not
have been granted. The decision is
most surprising"
General Counsel Chester Dawes,
Burlington Route: THE railroads
believed they would be given suffi-
cient advances in rates to produce
reasonable returns,
Third Vice-President William A.
Gardner, Chicago & Northwestern:
1--WE will continue to seek permission
to make increases in rates"
General Manager Webber, Cana
dian Pacific: THE decision affects
the Canadian as well as American
railroads. We shall now find wheth-
er conditions can be worse than they
have been for five years"
Progressive members of congress
today declared the Interstate Com
mrce Commissions decision forbid
ding the advance in railroad rates
the greatest victory ever won by the
people. The decision, they point out,
is based upon section of the COM
merce law, passed last year, which
places upon the railroads the bur
den of proof that their proposed ad-
vanced rates were reasonable
! Senator Cummins, of Iowa, who
made over the Wickersham railroad
BILL said the decision was gratifying
and was evidence of the change in
railroad legislation insisted upon by
the progressives last year.
Senator Bristow, of Kansas, said
"If the progressives had never ac-
complished anything else they would
feel well repaid for their efforts by
having laid the basis of the law
making this decision possible. II
was only after hard contest that
the progressives were able to insert
the provision in the law by which
the attempt of the railroads to in
crease their rates has been prevent
ed"

sN eaty, swollen feet really mean,
They use T l q because T IL cures

liceman has to say: ''I was surprised
and delighted with TIZ for tender

You never tried anything like TIZ
before for your feet. 1t is different
from anything ever before sold.
TIZ is not powder. Powders

pores. TIZ draws out all poisonous
eXudations which bring on soreness
of the feet and is the only remedy
that does. TIZ cleans out every
pore and glorifies the feet-your

A BIG FIRE
IN MINE AT

ELEVEN BODIES RECOVERED UP
TO NOON TO-DAY, AND A NUM-

POSSIBLY BE DEAD.

Tonopah, New, Feb 24.-With II
dead bodies reported recovered the
fire in the Belmont mine was prac-
tically out before noon today and
there were strong hopes that the
five men still in the mine would be
rescued.
Although there is considerable gas
and smoke on the 100 and 1166-foot
levels, but little smoke is coming
from the shaft and the rescue party
expected to pass the fire and get to
the east drift, where their fellows
are entombed, within a few hours.
The damage to the mine will not
exceed $1,000.

at Sumter and remained there until
past 3 o'clock, awaiting Major An

out into the harbor between Forts
Johnson and Sumter and there lay to

Sumter's shots and also that of Sum-

About that time the firing from Sumter
ceased but the flag was still waving.
