.BORAH AND BEVERIDGE
 WOULD RELIEVE CALENDER
By Disposition of the Direct Vote and
 lorirner Matters.

Washington. Feb. l5.-If the plans of Senators Borah and Beveridge with reference tO the election of senators and the charges against Senator Lori mer are not frustrated. the senate calendar will be relieved within the next week of two measures which have occupied much of the senate's working time.
 Mir BOrah gave notice yesterday that he would ask the senate to sit tomorrow until vote was reached on the resolution providing for the election of senators by direct vote. and MT. Beveridse indicated a simi- lar purpose today with reference tC the Lorimer resolution for next Tues day
 Whether the senators will accom- plish their respective purposes hy these tactics is a question. hut it is evident to all that if they fail and if these two measures continue to receive the attention of the senate. there will be little time for the con of appropriation bills.

PEOPLE ARE LEARNING
 ABOUT NAVAJO BLANKETS
That Is Why the Blanket Trade of BaIke's Big curio Store Has
 So Increased.

In all the years BallXe's Big Curio store has been engaged in the distribu- ton of genuine Navajo blankets it has never sold nearly so many in the same space of time as within the last two months. A couple of weeks ago three large bales. part of the contract made with the Indians last summer. were re- ceived and all of that lot has been sold Yesterday another consignment of two bales was received and they will not last nearly so long.
 The increasing trade of the Big Curio store in Indian blankets is du. to two things. One of course. is the cut price sale in which there is sacrifice of profits on every thing in the store. The larger blankets are even being sold considerably below cost
 The other reason for the heavy trade in blankets is the wider spread of knowledge among the public regarding blankets. To many people hitherto an Indian blanket was an Indian blanket and nothing more. But il has 1 cen i'm pressed upon the public that there are blankets and blankets and that those at the Big Curio store are the best and have the backing of money back" guaranty.

The railroad station or San simon is situated near the center of this large valley. which ex- tends from the Mexican line on the south to the Gila river on the north. and. like all the other Arizona val leys. the soil is fertile. needing only water to transform the partial desert Io verdant field.

MEXICAN FORCE ID
 PROTECT RIVER WORK
Troops May Cross Am=riean Soil and Purchase Stores on This Side
 e tke Line.

The question of permitting Mexico to send an armed force from one point to another through American territory en route. if it seems desirable 10 the Mexican government tO do so. has been favorably acted upon in Washington. Governor Sloan yesterday received a long telegram from the secretary Of the interior carrying the information that the Mexican government had is- sued orders to Colonel Vega. command CT of the northern military district of Lower California, to proceed to the levee work in progress on the lower Colorado river. with 200 men, and to purchase arms and equipment for that purpose in Yuma. if needed. IL is eX- plained that the force referred to Is eN- pected to act as a constabulary orSanl- zation for the protection of the river work rather than as a part Of the mili- tary force of Mexico, though of course it is apparent that this is matter that is wholly in the hands of the Mexican government. whenever the force is on Mexican soil.
 IL is stated in the telegram also that the United States has no objection to the commercial purchase of ammuni- ion and provisions in this country by the Mexican government. IL is further stated that the Mexican government has been informed that in the event 1t chooses to send a force through Ameri- can territory. permission is granted and both the United States and the terri tory of Arizona will grant such facili- ties as may be required

Boy Finds Grandfather.

The pathetic story from Salem re-
garding 10-year-old Ellis Greer,
who had arrived alone in that city in
search of his grandfather, M c Nc
Farlane, was read with keen interest
by many people in Polk County, who
remember Mr.. McFarlane as resi-
dent of near Falls City number of
years ago. G. W. McBee, in speaking
Of him, recalled the fact that he had
been candidate for county superin-
tendent of schools here something
ike 20 years ago. Later dispatches
from Salem convey the glad news
that the boy was claimed by Mr. Nc
Farlane, and taken to his home in
Marion County, just across the river
from Wheatland.

Public Towel Must Go.

The public towel and the public
drinking cup are going the same
road and not far apart. Paper towels
are coming rapidly into use, and are
liked by those who use them. A state
law may be passed to help along the
individual towel. Dr.. Mark w. Rich
ardson, secretary Of the state board
Of health. favors the abolition of pub
lie towels in hotels and restaurants,
as was done with the common drink
ing cup. DIR. S. J. Crumbine, secre-
tary of the Kansas state board of
health, has taken the initiative in the
matter and will recommend such ae-
iion BY his board st the next meeting.
Investigations have been conducted
with towels taken from public places,
aud, while results have not been COM
piled, it has been demonstrated that
the public towel Is a carrier of dis
ease. In several instances typhoid
germs have been found on towels,
and in other cases worse diseases
have been carried.

RAILROAD lNSPECTS GRAVEL
Southern Pacific Officials Visit West
Salem in Search of Ballast.


Superintendent L. R. Fields and
Master Mechanic 4. w. Younger, OF
the Southern Pacific lines in Oregon,
were in West Salem yesterday with
their private car, inspecting the gray
el situation. They examined the bar
Just above West Salem and later
went on up the line Of the Salem,
Falls City & Western road
The Southern Pacific Company is
putting in heavier steel on their west
side lines and ballasting them much
heavier than they have been in the
past, and all this requires a lot of
gravel.
The convenience for securing the
gravel from the bar above West Sa-
lem is such that il is probable that a
deal will be made with the Salem,
Falls City e. Western company
whereby the Southern Pacific can get
all the gravel they need.
A spur runs from the main line of
the S., T.. G. & w. onto the bar, and
the grade is such that a long train Of
cars can be loaded at one time with
a steam shovel and the tracks Of the
S. p. cross the S., +. c. & w. at Der
ry Junction, so that only short haul
would be necessary over lines not
their own. Salem Statesman.

COMETS HOVER NEAR SUN
Strange Visitors, Invisible to Unaid-
ed Eye, Perform Antics.

CHICAGO, July 24.-Four comets
every one of the bashful variety
which refuse to be seen by the un-
aided eye--are lowering around the
earth, dodging behind the sun and
performing other antics which are
keeping astronomers busy Two of
the four are brand new visitors and
are more eagerly watched on that ac-
count. The two others are periodi-
Gals.
One of the visiting comets has
proved to be distinct disappoint-
ment. This is the Kiess comet, which
was discovered about July Z by the
Lick Observatory, and was later
picked up by the Yerkes Observatory
at Williams Bay, Wis. Observations
made this morning at Williams Bay
showed that the comet was getting
away from the earth.
