Surprise in Senate.

Bismarck.-James NJ. Hanley of
landau was the caucus nominee Mon
day for speaker of the house OF repre-
Sentatives.
Hanley won ont after a sharp on
test in which six candidates were en-
tered. The progressive candidates
numbered five and they had agreed
that they would go into caucus
and settle the matter so far as the
rrOgreSSIVc& We're concerned. Major
Frame II General Williams were the
candidates OF the stalwart organization
nut just as soon as it was seen there
was no hope in that direction. Frame
signed the progressive call, INC the six
candidates entered, representing 80 of
the So republicans in the house.
Each ballot eliminated the low man,
and Sorlle, Ployhar and Frame dropped
out in the order named. The next bal
lot eliminated Price n the contest
het"een HanleN and HOmnes resulted
in a victory for Hanley by the decis-
i've vote of 60 10 IS.

house. He is a rising young attorney
Ut Mandan. captain of the militia COM
pany at Dickinson, m won this year
after a hard election in one of the stall
wart strOngholds Of the state.
The surprise of the session so far
was sprung when a few Of the young
members of the senate started a paper
and gathered in % names for a pro-
gressive republican caucus of the sem
ators. 1t was done so quietly that the
stalWarts did not realize what was on
until the thing vas cinched. The pro-
sressive strength today numbers 25,
enough to control. The stalwarts fig
ured they had a working majority, but
when Gilbert of Cass and WEIGH of
BurleiEh signed with the progressives,
the stalwart majority was no more.
There are five democrats il the sem
ate. -Four of them We're ready to come
in with the progressives if necessary.
At the senate caucus the progres.
sives controlled and the committee on
committees were named as follows:
Steel Of Stutsman, Steele OF Renville,
Bessessen of Wells. Talcott of Cass
and Simpson Of Stark. The first three
named are progressives.

IN LATE WINTER
AND EARLY SPRING
We seldom feel JUST RIGHT

At such a time usPARILLA is the best and
safest Blood Purifier, the most successful
prescription for spring humors and such
disorders of the blood as boils, pimples,
pustules, blotches, sores and cutaneous
eruptions. Kasparilla is admitted to be
the best remedy for that lack Of energy
and the peculiar debility SO prevalent
during the close Of winter and the opening
Of spring. For arrangements Of the di-
gestive organs 1t is natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthy activity. It's
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation OF
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, Irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. It is a
strengthening tonic Of the highest value.

DECISION FAVORS
THE HONEST EADER
ABSENCE TO MAKE LIVING NO
BAR TO PATENT-SMITH
LOSES CASE.

Word has been received at the La
Grande land office of the decision of
the secretary of the interior revers-
ing the action of the commissioners of
the general land office and granting
a patent to Mrs. Ida B. Welchel, for
merly Ida B. Roberts of Wallowa,
and the decision of the commissioner
in rejecting the final proof of wal
ter Smith, of Joseph, says the Obser-
yer.
In the former case, the entrywo-
man, who was nurse without other
means of support, was away from her
entry considerable Or the time and
when she made proof the forest SER
vice protested her entry, claiming
that the residence of the claimant
was insufficient. After a number of
hearings and decisions, the commits
sioners ordered a further hearing to
take more evidence in the case. From
this action, she appealed, and Assist
ant Secretary Pierce reversed the
holdings of the commissioner and or
dered that she be given a patent.
The case has been pending over two
years. Mrs. Welchel now resides near
Seattle, Wash.
Famous Shooting. Recalled.
The Smith case involved construc-
tion of the law permitting proofs to
be made where the entryman has
been absent from the homestead en-
try by reason of insanity. In 1902,
Smith filed ON some land near Fruita
on the upper Imnaha river, and later
the land was placed in a forest re-
serve. Smith claims to have resid-
ed upon the land from February 1903
to October 21, 1903, when he went to
Joseph for supplies, and while at the
lake city was detailed as a city po
liceman for Hallow cen night; and
that while performing his duties as
such officer was shot by a thug, and
dangerously wounded; that from the
| effects of such wound he was dis
abled, and rendered incapable o
physical labor, and later became men
tally weak, the latter condition ne
cessitating his confinement in al
asylum in Dakota, where his rela
/ tives were obliged to take him. Ht
never resided upon the land aftel
receiving the wound, and upon of
fering proof in February 1910, show
ing the foregoing facts in excuse o
his. failure to reside upon or cult
vate the land, the forest service
filed protest.
Insanity Plea insufficient.
The commissioner has now reject
ed the proof and ordered the cancel
lation of the entry because the proc
of Smiths residence prior to, his
insanity was unsatisfactory and not
ing that he came back to Oregon tt
make proof in person, assumes tha
he had regained his normal condition
and he could have resided on the
place. Comment is also made thai
while entryman married after his re
ceiving the shot, no effort was made
by either entryman or the family Il
reside upon or cultivate the land.
