Republican club here yesterday what an I'm

seriousness.
Regarding physical valuation, capitalize

the senator said;

IN passing the Sherman act. which, he
added. has not accomplished itH end"
Cooperation in the hands of altruists,
thought the senator, might be good thing,
but suppose It should eventuate In prices
that the consumer refused TO pay?
That being true" he deduced. some
government tribunal must be entrusted 20
fix prices and then we shall be compelled
: to restore fun competition.
II do not believe we can so change the
government OF our fathers as TO confer

WASHINGTON. Feb. 5,--The first read
ing Of the agricultural appropriation bill in
the house Of representatives yesterday preci-
plated a bitter exchange OF words between
Mr.. Macon OF Arkansas and Mr.. Stanley
OF Kentucky and this later was followed
by a denunciation Of a Washington news
paper man by Mr.. Macon, which nearly
ended in an exchange OF blows between the
two Nearby congressman. newspaper men
and the sergeant-st-arms prevented actual
hostilities.
In the linguistic exchange between the
congressman terms were employed which
called for their being expunged from the
record. The trouble between Mr. Macon
and the reporter came to a head immedi-
ately after adjournment was taken for the
day.
Mr.. Macon had bitterly assailed the re-
porter, whom he denounced from the floor
because Of an article printed this afternoon.
The demand OF the reporter after adjourn
ment that the language directed against
him be expunged from the record caused
the storm to break

Mr. Stanley then said he wanted ito bear
cheerful testimony to the incorruptlble in
tegrity of the gentleman from Arkansas to
his tireless vigilance and to say that he is
an ornament to this house"
Mr.. Macon, amid laughter. said he re-
turned the compliment
Immediately upon adjournment the re-
porter sought Representative Norris OF Ne
braska to enlist his aid in having the bitter
denunciation swept from the records On
the floor he found Mr.. Macon and made the
demand of that gentleman.
Mr.. Macon replied that he would stand
by what he had said, whereupon the re-
porter made a belligerent rush in the ,direc-
ton Of the gentleman from Arkansas
Strong arms thrust the newspaper man
back and he was detained In their clutches
until such time the anger OF all had
sufficiently waned TO admit of Mr. Norris
persauding MIR. Macon to consent to having
his arraignment of the newspaper man ex-
plunged from the records.

colloquy to be expunged from the record

With the first reading OF the bill Mr..
Macon began to make points OF order
against proposed increases Of salary to
chief clerks and other employees Several
members objected to this method OF per
sonal' legislation and appealed to Mr.
Macon in desist This he declined to do
Mr.. Macon had charged that nearly every
member of a committee had some pet
whom he was anxious TO promote. And
to this end he said the members were
willing that other pets" should go up in
the salary scale.
Mr.. Stanley declared an assertion like
that impeached the whole house He
challenged Mr.. Macon to show that any
member of the agricultural committee had
been guilty of this infamous conduct-this
petty pifering from the treasury of the
United States"
Mr. Macon replied that he did not claim
to be the only honest man in the house.
but said he tried to do his duty by his
constituency and intimated that there were
others not quite so conscientious.
Arising hour later Mr.. Stanley said
he would like to insert in the record some
facts concerning his own '1Ilustrious
record" the latter with a profound bow
toward Mr.. Macon.
For instance he said, he had introduced
a resolution calling for an investigation
OF the steel trust which would save the
people S25 100000 year on steel rails alone.
But, of course" concluded Mr. Stanley,
that peltry sum does not compare with
the amount which has been saved through
the efforts of the gentleman from Arkansas
in cutting down the salaries of char
women"

Fargo Courier News: Professor O..
G. Libby of Grand Forks of the de-
partment of history of the University
of North Dakota, was the speaker last
evening at the Grand heater at the
lecture course n he took for his SUBJ
ject prehistoric Man and was intro
duced In a neat speech by DR.. Max
Bait after a vtry fine concert by the
GraEd's orchestra. each number being
warmly welcomed.
He said the study of humanity was
the great problem in which all found
interest: We all want to know about
life." said he. I'VE all want to know
about life and about human life in
particular. We have been studying
scientific education. scientific philan-
thropy and scientific farming and it
all means the study OF life. We all
study the origin of life and OF human
institutions. The world did not come
by chance. Everything progresses.
We are always thinking of order.
whether We have the right order or
wrong. we think of it," He said that
scientists say that the old saying that
the earth is dying out is wrong: that
it is changing all the time and is al
ways building itself anew. and he took
h glacial period to show hat this
was the case. The earth is continually
keeping up to its balance. All philoso-
piers and biologists study life and
they find the study to be most inter-
esting. In looking backward we come
to bow to human life. He thcn took
up prehistoric man and showed how
had progressed from the stone
age down to the present time. He
at some length on the cliff dwell
ers. on the lake dwellers. on the mound
builders. on the cave men and during
his lecture he used a large number Of
slides which We're thrown on the screen
10 illustrate his different points.
He introduced some of the pictures
of the carving done in stone by pre-
historic man and brought these down
to the present and showing what
progress had done for mankind.
1t was a great lecture and was lis
tened to closely by a large and atten-
tive audience. 1t was both instruc-
tive and interesting and is considered
