STEPHENSON MAY
Be INVESTIGATED
Committee Files Charges Against
Wisconsin Senator.
"V0TES TURNED BY MONEY"
Governor MeooVern Is Asked TO Lay
Case Before Upper House Of
Congress With View to
An Inquiry.

Madison, Wis-The charges of
corruption made in connection with
the election Of United States Senator
Stephenson two years ago, we're re-
newed when a lengthy statement was
filed with Gov. F. E. McGovern by the
1909 state senate committee in which
the senator is charged with violating
a number OF the laws of the state
The committee recommends that
copy OF the report be submitted to the
United States senate and that that
body Investigate Mr. Stephenson's
election. which the committee de
clares Illegal.
A summary Of the charges against
the senator follows:
That he premeditatedly violated
the statute which requires the filing
under oath Of an account of campaign
expenditures.
That the civil service law of this
state was violated when he caused to
be paid money. which the evidence
shows was paid to State Game War
den Stone and L. b. Dresser. presi-
dent Of the board of control.
That he gave a sum of money to a
supporter of McGovern for United
States senator, such supporter after
ward switching to Stephenson, and
that he paid large sums to others
which afterward were used by them
to induce other persons to assist In
procuring his election.
"On the whole record therefore"
the report states, Stephenson is
charged with knowledge of the man
ner in which his campaign was being
conducted and the purposes for which
money was being disbursed
THE failure to keep or require ac-
counts and the practice of destroying
original memoranda by those engaged
in disbursing Stephenson's funds In
the campaign make 1t clear there was
generalization and method on the part
Of Stephenson and his managers to
cover up their methods of conducting
the campaign. That he approved of
these methods cannot be doubted.
"A large part of money distributed
in the Stephenson campaign, probably
sum in excess of $4,000, was used
by Stephenson managers TO procure
unlawfully and corruptly the nomina-
ton and election of Isaac Stephenson
to the United States senate"

Two Types of Hens.

fhe alert for tempting morsels of
food from all sources. Generally the
type Of prolific layer will be found
in birds with long keel, full breast,
long and straight underline (instead
Of showing a half-circle), with legs
well apart, a bright eye, blood-red
comb and wattles, and smart carriage.
1t may be added that good winter lay
ing is largely a matter If strain, and
it certainly will pay the owner of any
flock of poultry to perpetuate sat
isfactory strain of layers. This work
may be started in a humble way by
selecting two or three birds which in
vestigation has proved to be prolific
egg-producers, preferably two-year-
old hens, with trap-nested round, mat
ed to an early-hatched cockerel. The
following season the pullets Matched
should be mated to the male bird, and
any cockerel Matched to the parent
hens, whilst in the following season
the granddaughters of the grandson
to the original hens. Such pedigree
breeding is full of fascinating inter-
est, and the records made invariably
prove of great value to an aspiring
poultry-breeder. Every effort should
be made to retain each season, by
careful selection, only the best lay
ers. and eliminate any doubtful speci-
mems, discarding all haphazard meth
DDS, and keeping the main object well
in view-egg production. 1t is by
such means that fowls with 200 egg
laying capacity are bred

He VIII Not Down.

The man with the glittering whisk.
ers suddenly appears at tn desk OF
the sunken-eyed hireling with the re.
calcitrant fountain pen, and says:
Il was passing the office when this
one occurred to me. and | rushed in to
give it to you while it is fresh. What
is the difference between a man who
has been marooned on an island whose
only population is polar bears. upon
the flesh of which animals he has
been compelled to subsist for two
years-what is the difference between
him and man who saunters into g
palatial hotel, is given q seat near a
window before table spread with the
whttest linen and the choicest cut
glass. and to whom an obsequious
waiter deferentially hands a menu?"
The pale bondslave shakes his head
petulantly. and the man with the gilt
tering whiskers explains:
"One has his fill of bear and the
other has his bill of fare"
And the sad wind mournfully sighs
the requiem of dying autumn through
the iridescent foliage Of the monarchG

SECURING A LAYING STRAIN
Watch Carefully Production of Birds
Kept and Use Eggs for Matching
from Best Fowls.

To breed up a laying strain there
is no better way than to watch care
fully the laying powers Of the birds
kept. and use only eggs for Matching
purposes from birds whose general
character as winter layers will bear
examination. He must be a poor poul-
try-keeper who has not observed in
dividual birds who can be classed as
arst-rate layers, and if eggs from
such birds are Matched the owner can
depend upon benefting himself by
the progeny raised, and have the add
ed pleasure of benefting agriculture
generally. The observant poultry
keeper will soon learn to distinguish
the good layers, for such hens or pull
let's will be found to be first out in
the run at daybreak and the last to
roost at eventide, besides always pos
sessing a good appetite, and being on

KIDDING POULTRY OF MITES
Insect Powder Used With Success by
Maine Experiment Station and
at Cornell.

The following formula for Kidding
poultry of mites and other external
parasites has been used with great
success by the Maine experiment sta
ton and in the Cornell university.
This powder is made at a cost of only
a few cents per pound. Take three
parts of gasoline and one part of crude
carbolic acid. Mix these together and
add gradually, With stirring enough
plaster Of paris to take up all the
moisture. Stir so thoroughly that the
liquid will be uniformly distributed
through the plaster. The resulting
mixture should be a dry, pinkish-
brown powder, having a fairly strong
carbolic odor. Work this powder into
the feathers CT the affected fowls. II
one application is not enough. a sec
ond should follow at an interval Of
four days. If birds are badly infested.
a third application may be necessary.
A spray, or paint. to use on nest boxes,
walls. floors and roosts of hen houses
is made OF three parts gasoline to one
part crude carboHc acid. 1t is abso-
lutely essential that crude carbolic
acid should be used.

SAYS HIGHER RATES
ARE NOT NEEDED
BrandeiS Shows How Roads Can
Make Big Saving.
MUST PUT CHECK ON WASTE
Boston Lawyer Appears Before Com
meree Body on Behalf Of Shippers
in Fight Against Increased
Freight Charges.

Washington.-In his argument be-
fore the interstate commerce com
missioner, on behalf of the ship
pers OF the middle west. Louis d.
Brandeis of Boston declared that II
the railroads Of this country would
put an end to their wasteful expendi-
lures they could make a saving OF
$3.50. 600, 600 a year. He asserted that
an advance in freight rates, which
they did not need, would enrich them
only S27000,000 year.
Going farther into the question OF
economy of operation, he declared
that there is an enormous waste IN
fuel on all roads and that by proper
regulation of this matter at least $780,
100000 a year in coal bills can be
saved.
Furthermore. he showed how saving
could be effected If the railroads would
cooperate on cutting down cost OF
operations, and made the pertinent
statement that no attempt had ever
been made to reduce the price Of steel
rails. for the significant reason that
forty out Of sixty.flve steel company
directors are also directors in fifty-two
OF the most important railroad com
panie5 in America. Also he pointed
out that steel products are carefully
excluded from the proposed increased
freight tariff
The argument advanced by Mr..
Brandeis was the concluding speech in
the presentation OF the claims of the
shippers in what is known as the east
ern rate case, affecting Chicago and
the middle west as far south as the
Ohio river
I'VE contend that rates are
ample, but that the expense Of opera
ton Is excessive; that wages are rot
too ligh. but that. as the manage
ment is unscientifc, labor, material,
equipment and plant fail to give ade-
quate results" said Mr. Brandeis I'VE
plead for the Introduction Of scientific
management. under which the rail-
roads shall get 100 cents for every
dollar expended"
Mr. Brandeis said that the railroads
can save money in equipment charges,
In the operation of machine and repair
shops in planning before performing,
and in the standardizing of methods,
material and equipment
Taking up the railroads own con
tention that the increase in freight
rates would bring them In only
paltry s27O0000 a year Mr.. Brandeis
brought out the fact thar this sum Is
little more than three per cent. Of the
aggregate annual operating expenses
of the railroads In question, and that a
cooperative effort in saving would
easily render an advance in tariff un-
necessary,

A short rope is tied from the end of
the pole to one of the triggers as
shown. Around the supports is a
moose about six inches from the
ground and just long enough to reach
around when the snare is set. The
upright trigger is driven in the
ground deep enough to hold the pole
down, and all the triggers are pro
tected by stakes, as shown at the
right. The bait is placed on the end
of the trigger inside the moose. Any
one can make this trap and prove its
effectiveness.

SEVENTEEN DROWN
IN COAST STORM
Three Rsrees Wrecked ard Their
Crews Lost-eodies Cast
Upon Beach.

Highland Light. Mass. - One
Of the worst calamities that the
lfe-saving crews along the Massachu-
sets coast have witnessed in years
occurred on the Peaked Hill sand
bars on the storm-tossed shores of
g. i'm Cape Cod.
They stood on the beach with their
life boats and other apparatus. unable
to render assistance, while three
stout coal-carrying barges were hurled
to destruction and all on board-sev-
enteen men-lost their lives in the
boiling surf.
The barges were the Treverton,
Corbin and Pine Forest, valued to-
gether at s125.OOO.
With The exception OF Captain
Brown Of the Treverton, who belonged
in Lincolnville. Me, and Captain Hall
Of the Pine Forest, a Provincetown
man, the drowned sailors we're Phila-
delphians.
The tug Lykens Of the Reading
Coal company started from Philadel-
phia last week with the Ireverton for
Portland, the Corbin for Portsmouth
and the Pine Forest for Marblehead.
The Lykens, with her tow. was off
Nausett and could be seen in the
moonlight from the shore. as she was
hugging the cape for a lee. The life
saving patrol saw her standing off
shore to avoid the Peaked Hill bars,
but darkness blotted her out four
hours before dawn.
The men of the Pine Forest were
seen to gather in a group. cut loose
the little dory on top of the barge's
house and launch It. All five men
then tumbled in for the last fight for
life, but before they had grasped their
oars, big comber came rolling round
the stern of the barge and over them.
That was the end.

HOLDS LORIMER'S
ELECTION Is VOTE
Beverage Files Minority Report, say
Votes Tainted-Illinois Man
Denies Guilt.

Washing ton.-The opening Of the
/ fight TO GUST Senator Lorimer from his
seat in the senate began with a clash
between Senator Owen of Oklahoma,
VINO demanded the floor on a question
Of the highest privilege" and Mr.. Bev-
eridge, who insisted upon his right
first to file a minority report, in order
that the record In the case might be
complete.
Senator Beverage. by virtue Of be-
ing a member of the committee on
privileges and elections which investi-
gated charges Of bribery against Mr..
Lorimer gained a tactical victory by
filing a minority report attacking the
position of his colleagues on the com
mittee who voted to exonerate the Illi-
nois senator
Senator Owen, however, introduced
a resolution to declare the election of
Senator Lorimer TO have been Illegal
and void. but he was not permitted at
that time to address the senate In its
support. The senate held that the
resolution under the rules would have
to go over one day
Mr.. Beverage then submitted his
report. the conclusion Of which was:
That this election was invalid I'M
der any possible view Of the law. If
the senate so concludes 1t is our duty
so to declare. Therefore | submit the
following resolution:
" Resolved, That William Lorimer
was not duly and legally elected to
seat in the senate of the United
States by the legislature of the state
of Illinois,"
Before the report was filed Senator
Loirmer made a brief speech. declar-
ing his innocence OF bribery and the
innocence of his friends Of any parti-
cipation In corrupt practices In con-
nection with his election. iIe an
nounced his intention to be present

PATTEN SUED FOR $4,000, COO.
Action Brought Under Law Allowing
Recovery Of Gambling Losses.

Chicago - James A. Patten was
sued for s6.OO0O0O on the avowed
ground that this sum represented
/. three times the amount of his win
nings in gambling operations" on the
board of trade in two years.
The move was admitted to be the
beginning of an attack upon the board
of trade by an organization calling it.
self the Chicago Anti-Gambling
league" The suit was filed in the SUI
perior court by DR. Paul Burmaster.
president of the league.
Doctor Burmaster under repeated
questioning refused to give the facts
attending its formation or supply the
names of its other members.
The suit was brought under the
gambling statute of the state providing
that suit may be brought by an out
side party for three times the amount
of the gambling losses, one-half Of
which is to 90 to the state
Doctor Burmaster asserted that he
was not seeking to recover the losses
of any individual.
