W. H. Cook, Lumberman, Gives Start

Bribery Committee.

Springfield, Ill.-The Lorimer inquir,
before the Helm committee was brought
to a crisis Tuesday when w. H.. Cook,
a lumberman of Duluth, Mimi, told of
being in a room with Hines the day of
Lorimer's election when the head of the
Hines Lumber Company arranged over
the telephone to food Springfield with
money enough to make a new United
States senator.
While two men differed as to whether
the message was to Gov. Deneen or to
former Gov. Yates, Christian F. Wiehe,
secretary of the Hines Lumber Company,
startled the committee by admitting
that he was present at the time and that
the man at the other end of the wire
was the embryo senator himself.
Hello, is this you, governor?" was
Cooks version of the Chicago end OF
Hines conversation. "Well, | just left
President Taft and Senator Aldrich last

that under no consideration shall Hop

M'MANIGAL WAS AFRAID
Wanted to Quit Dynamiting, But Feared
MCNamaras.

Chicago, Ill.-William j. Burns, head
of the detective bureau bearing his
name, Friday gave out an interview
in regard to the alleged confession of
0. Z. Manigal, in which the detective
says:
"McManigal's confession, which was
written down and sworn to before a
notary public" said Chief Burns, was
made to me at the home of Detective
Reed in South Chicago, where Mc-Mani-
gal and James B. Mcnamara were held
prisoners for two days.
"McManigal sent for me on the even
ing of April Is and the first thing he
said when | entered the room was:
az know it's all up with me. You've
got me right. It's of no use of me try
ing to conceal the truth any longer. 1t
may 60 better with my poor wife and
babies in Chicago if l tell the truth.
az am doing this for the sake of my
poor wife and children. l am anxious
to tell all. 1t will ease my conscience
if tell the truth
81 then called in a secretary and a
notary public, and McManigal began his
story. 1t took him four hours to tell it.
He began by saying:
81 have long been tired of this awful
work of using dynamite and nitro
glycerine to blow up manufacturing and
other plants and many a time l have
wanted to quit the game, for it made
mt sick to think of the scores of lives
taken and the poor workmen who escaped
death but were MANNED for life. | would
have given it up long ago, but was

GOVERNMENT WINS
S75,OOO,OOO SUIT
OREGON COURT DECIDES AGAINST
SOUTHERN PACIFIC co.
100000 Acres Inyolved-If Decision
Sustained, Land Be Opened for
Settlement.

Portland, Ore.-Federal il dge Charles
Wolverton Monday decided in favor OF
the government every contention made in
It's answer to the demurrer Of the
Southern Pacific Company in the so
called 30. & c." land grant cases.
If this decision be sustained by the
United States supreme court, land in Ore
gon valued at from S~40,O00,0O0 to $751;
900 900 will revert to the government to
be opened to settlers.
In 1866 congress granted to the Oregon
Central Railwf y company a tract through
the heart Of Oregon, comprising what is
now some OF the richest agricultural and
most valuable timber land IN the state.
The consideration for the grant was
an agreement to construct a railroad
north and south over what is now the
Southern Pacific's Oregon division of the
Shasta route.
The grant of 1866 contained no require.
ment that the lands included in it should
be sold in any specific quantity nor at
any specific price per acre.
In 1868, however, the company ap'
peared before congress petitioning for an
extension of time in which to construct
the road and asking that it be granted
10000 additional acres of land.
Congress extended the time as petit
toned and granted the additional land
but apparently realizing its omission al
to manner of sale, it attempted to EN-
body as a part OF the etnire grant thu
condition that the land be sold in 100
acre tracts to bonafide settlers at a con
sideration not to exceed $3.50 per acre.
Another extension OF time was granted
the road two years later under what i
known as the grant of 1870.
During the 70's the Oregon Central wa
succeeded by the Oregon and Californit
Railroad Company, and the road wa
built.

THE SOCIETY TEST.

Know more people and know them
better. was the means suggested by
Professor Zueblin in his last Chicago
lecture for attaining the ultimate In
human relationship, He spoke OF
wealth, position. sex, religion and race
as the obstacles to the true social
situation, which, should have an intel
lectual and moral basis. He ascribed
the socialistic movement Of the age
largely to the insistence Of modern
society upon such petty distinctions
as wealth, family, position, etc. OF
course, the real social status OF a
community is based upon intellect
and moral purpose, says the ONO
State Journal. Money and vanity
make more of a show, but they do not
constitute the social influence OF a
community. A person who has moth
ing but his money to depend on, Is
ordinarily condemned and so Is the
society where he reigns. He car
make a display, but sensible people
see through 1t all. We speak OF this
to encourage the idea that culture
with its aspiration and its impulse, |
the only test Of a real society,
society that is a benefit to the worlt
and an uplift to the individual. Thi
is not an objection to wealth, for rea'
ly that is a great good when 1t shine
IN culture and refinement, but whe'
for its own self it sets itself up as
social ~aristocrat. then it is to be pitie
and avoided.

A WIDOWS LUCK
Quit the Thing That Was Slowly In
iuring Her.

A woman tells how coffee kept her
from insuring her life:
Il suffered for many years chiefly
from trouble with my heart, with
sever nervous headaches and neu-
ralgia; but although incapacitated
at times for my housework, | did not
realize the gravity of my condition till
l was rejected for life insurance, be-
cause, the examining physician said,
my heart was SO bad he could not pass
me.
This distressed me very much, as
l was a widow and had a child de-
pendent upon me. 1t was to protect
her future that l wanted to insure
my life.
Fortunately for me, l happened to
read an advertisement containing a
testimonial from a man who had been
affected in the same way that | was
with heart trouble, and who was bene-
fitted by leaving off coffee and using
Postum. l grasped at the hope this
held out, and made the change at
once.
my health began to improve imme-
diately. The headaches and neuralgia
disappeared, l gained in flesh, and my
appetite came back to me. Greatest
of all, my heart was strengthened
from the beginning, and soon all the
distressing symptoms passed away. No
more waking up in the night with my
heart trying to fly out of my mouth!
Then 1 again made application for
life insurance, and had no trouble In
passing the medical examination.
1T was seven years & that | be.
gan to use Postum and l am using 1t
still, and shall continue to do so, as l
find it a guarantee OF good health"

on recommendation of the senate bribery

Cummings and Benedict had refused to

The committee believes these bank ac-
counts will show evidence of the use of
money in the election of William Loli'

had submitted an affidavit before the
committee stating that these accounts
show nothing directly or indirectly bear

also had offered, in a letter to the com'

to Chicago and examine these bank ac
