LEGAL AID PROPOSED
FOR SANTA CLAUS
A KANSAS LEGISLATOR WOULD
FINE ANYONE WHO TOLD
CHILD THERE is NONE

Not to be outdone by the bill just
introduced prohibiting tights or short
skirts in public, Senator Robinson of
the Kansas Legislature has prepared a
bill providing fine of 5000 for any
adult who tells child there is no
Santa Claus. The senator saysNthat
it tends to scatter illusions and al
though Kansas is a big state with
plenty of room for scattering, he
doesn't propose to have any illusions
scattered free and far.
Several legislators are preparing
amendments tacking on a few other
illusions such as Old Mother Hubbard,
Jack Frost Little Red Riding Hood
the North Pole, the Cost of Living, the
Downward Revision, Mrs. Harris, Joe
Miller, Old King Cole, Hoyle, Colone
Bogey, Vox Populi and Pro Bono
Publico. The other legislators thinl
these illusions should be cherished by
young and old as well.

STANDPATTERS HOLD
KEY TO SITUATION
APPEAR TO HAVE ALL PROGRESS
SlvE LEGISLATION IN CON-
GRESS SAFELY BLOCKED

Washington, Jan. 19.-With both
branches of congress tied in a hard
knot guaranteed to hold against all
attempts at new legislation and the
Taft administration at an end as far
as legislative achievement is concern
ed, Senator Aldrich, confident that
the do-nothing program arranged for
the session by himself and the house
standpat leaders will be faithfully car
ried out, has left Washington for the
south on indefinite ieave
So tight has the legislative knot
been tied for the purpose of shutting
out legislation Objectionable to the in
terests that some of the standpatters
express the fear the thing has been
overdone. Senator Cullom declared
the outlook is SO bad that he would
not be surprised if it would be impos-
sible to get all the regular appropria-
t10n DlllS Uhrough the senate anu OlidI
in the wind-up of the session it would
be necessary to resort to the expedi-
ent of passing a resolution continuing
through the next fiscal year the appro-
priations for the current year.
This afford the clearest idea of the
hopeless tangle into which affairs in
the senate especially have been
brought by the determination of the
standpatters that such legislation as
the resolution providing for direct
election of senators, the bills re
strictfng the issuance of injunctions

Washington, Jan. 19.-'That no con-
troversy ever existed where the stake
between the opposing party was so
huge as this one, measured by the
standard of dollars and cents" Cliff
ford Thorne, counsel for the meat pro-
ducts association of the middle west,
today thus characterized the inquiry
before fhe Interstate Commerce Com
mission into the proposed advance IN
freight rates. Mr.. Thorne said that
in the last ten years the average mar
ket price of commodities wholesale
had increased eleven per cent, the
average market price forty per cent
and the transportation companies
rates 100 per cent, which he held to
be a remarkable demonstration that
railroad business had been profitable.
Shippers and consumers want to
see the railroads grow and prosper,
he said. I'VE are w'liing to be liberal
in the truest sense, but the charges
exacted by all the railroads must be
reasonable"
He asserted the railroads for the
year ending last June, had earned
more than $7O,OOOOOO more than evel
before in their history.

ACCIDENT FAILED TO

LOW SERIOUS AUTO CRASH
TO DISTURBANCE PLANS

Chicago. Jan. 19.-An automobile
crash at Drexel Boulevard and Forty
Seventh street, last night, in which
the bridegroom and his parents and
his best man were more or less Sc
riously injured, was not enough TO
prevent the marriage of DR.. Frank
Shaffner to Miss Beatrice We'll.
The machine in which the party was
going to the We'll home for the we'd
ding, was caught between two street
cars and literally torn to pieces. The
occupants were thrown in every dl-
rection. But carriage was called
and the party reached the We'll home
on time.
DR.. Shaffner, his wedding suit torn
and dirty, and several bruises show
ing on his face, took the hand of his
bride and made the usual responses
The best man limped badly and was
considerably mussed up, but he did
his duty effectively. The parents OF
DIR. Shaffner, one with a broken leg
and lacerated scalp, and the other with
a broken wrist and other injuries, sal
nearby propped up in chairs, but gave
the paternal blessing to the bride anc
groom.

the Metropolitan organization is an

Statehood and the Constitution" is

SIERRA TUNNEL PLAN
MAY BE ABANDONED
NEW OVERLAND ROUTE FOR S.
p. WILL SUCCEED HARRI-
MANS PET SCHEME

Reno; New, Jan. 19.-According to
reports received here from apparently
reliable sources, Harrimans pet
scheme which he fostered during the
latter years of his life of mammoth
railroad projects, of tunneling the
Sierra mountains for the overland
trains of the Southern Pacific at a
cost of $13,000,000, is likely to be
abandoned and the course of the rail-
road changed between this city and
the coast A decision will not be
reached until complete report has
been made to the board of directors.
The entire Southern Pacific survey
ing crew will be transferred from
Auburn to Colfax. This will make
Colfax one of the liveliest towns in
the state. The yard work, roundhouse
and all allied work will be rushed,
and meantime the route for the con-
tinuation, either as to tunneling the
OiGIIdS VI Audh1hS dh OsCtAoiAN 1900
via Sierra and Nevada counties. will
be decided by the surveyors so that
the work can be pushed along with
out a hitch.
The tunneling of the Sierras will
cost millions of dollars, while the
overland route will be less expensive
and quicker. The overland seems to
be the popular one, as Sierra county
can be easily tapped. The different
resources would be more greatlS de-
veloped by the introduction OF a now
road.
The overland route appears to be
the one in greatest favor, taking in
a territory by such new route witch
heretofore has not been considered.

years, a well organized movement Is
afoot in Missouri to restore the
thoroughbre to his ow by re-estab-
fishing racing at the famous courses
of St. Louis and Kansas City
Friends of the racing and breeding
industries of this SHOW me" state
have framed bill which the legisla-
ture at jefferson City will be urged
to pass, authorizing racing under
judicious restrictions, and they are
hopeful of success.
The promoters of this legislation
have the backing of the numerous
breeders of the state, many OF the
farmers and the brewing, manufact-
uring and commercial interests of
the cities of st. Louis, Kansas City,
st. Joseph and Jefferson City, who
are considerably out of pocket as a
result of the suppression OF racins,
and they believe they can make the
Legislators see the light They base
their hope of success on the inherited
and deeply ingrained liking of the
citizens of Missouri for the sport and
the thorou ghbred and the statewid
appreciation of the economic value to
the commonwealth OF properly regu-
lated racing.
The interests of the Cellas. whose
sordid mismanagement of sport for
