VARDAMAN WINS
 OUT IN MISSISSIPPI
OPPONENTS OF THE FORMER GOVERNOR COINCIDE HIS
 NOMINATION..
Candidate for Lieutenant Governor Runs We'll Ahead and His SeIec-
 ton Is Assured.

Jackson, Miss.-That former Gov ernor James K. Vardaman has been chosen the Democratic nominee for United States senator-equivalen to eleetion-is conceded by both of his opponents in the primary, United States Senator LeRoy Percy and c. II. Alexander. In the race for lieu tenant governor, the returns indicate that State Senator Theodore G. Bilbo has boiled an equally large vote as that of Mir Vardaman, and his nomi- nation without the necessity of a second primary is regarded as as. sured. T. o. Newell and Wiley N. Nash were his opponents.
 Because of the remoteness of the outlying precincts returns are as yet incomplete. At Vardaman headquar- ters it is estimated that he will have an excess of 10000 votes over the combined vote of his two opponents. MT. Bilbo makes claim to an even greater majority. The returns receiv- ed give Alexander a slight lead over Senator Percy.
 Earl Brewer was unopposed for the gubernatorial nomination.

WANTS SHERMAN
 LAW MADE STRONG
OlDFlELD WOULD CURE THE DE EECTS IN THE ANTITRUST
 LAW.
Proposed Bill Would Make All Re straint of Trade Un-
 reasonable.

Washington. - Representative Old field of Arkansas introduced a plii which seeks to cure the defects in the sherman antitrust law caused by the majority opinion of the supreme court, recently decided in the Standard oli and American Tobacco Company anu trust cases. MT. Oldfield believes that the dissenting opinion of Justice liar Ian is the sound view of this matter
 The first section of MT. Oldfleld hill proyides that every contract Ill restraint of trade or commerce snail be adjudged by the court to De ui- reasonable. The last section or the bill provides that every person "ho shall make any such contract or en- eape in any combination in restraint of trade or commerce shall be deeiheo ruilty of a misdemeanor and sen tenced to a term of imprisonment TOT q neriod of not less than one nor more than ten years.
 Mr. Oldfield states that IL Is alilf cult enough now to prove that d coi noration is a trust or part ol trus' or monopoly, and if congress does not remedy this statute in the future the attorneys for the government Will ho' only have to prove that party iS mart of a trust or monoply put the! will have to go further and prove 'ha' sucb combination unreasonably inter feres with trade or commerce.
 lust a few days ago Attorney j. h poreons of New York made the state ment before the sugar trust ihNes suea tion committee that he orgahizeu tn' sugar trust and that the recent oe cision of the supreme court nuihhe' the criminal clause of the sherman law. MT. Oldfield's bill, if enacted into law. will reinstate the crimina clause of the Sherman anti-uus. Ia"

TARIFF REFORM
 NOW UP TO TAFT
COALITION INTENDS TO LEAVE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DELAY
 WITH PRESIDENT.
Taft Accredited With Being as De- termined as Ever to Veto Bills
 That Are Passed.

Washington.-Gene tariff legisla- | tion at this session of congress, so as to leave the responsibility for any delay in tariff revision squarely upon the president, is the slogan of the Democratic Progressive Republican coalition in the senate and the Dem- ocrats in the house. The president is accredited with being as determined as ever to veto any tariff bill passed by congress prior to the submission of the report of the tariff board to congress at the regular session in December.
 Meantime, the Democrats, continu- are wondering what the president will do when the wool bill, emerging from conference with lower duties than the LaFollette final compromise, goes to the White House for approv- al or veto. It is the most remarkable situation with respect to tariff legis- lation that has arisen in long pe- riod. Despite the apparently author | itatiye declarations that the president will refuse to place his approval on the tariff bills, some of the Demo crats, even Speaker Clark, still ex- 1 press the opinion that the president may yet approve revision legislation. The Democratic leaders, encouraged by the effective results of the combi- nation of their party With the insur- gent Republicans in the senate. are becoming Eore confidopt that the tariff schedules passed by the house will go through the senate in some | form.
 The wool tariff revision will be in conference early in the week, and a compromise measure on the basis of | 30 per cent ad valorem on raw wool will be reported out probably. The combined Democrat-Insurgent Repub- lican forces are confident it will run the gauntlet of both houses and be the first revision measure to go to the president as the test of his veto disposition.

STEEL PROBERS
 AFTER MORGAN
HE WILL PROBABLY BE SUBPOE. NAED ON HIS RETURN
 FROM EUROPE.
C.M.SchaWb Also Wanted later-Will Be Asked to Tell of Steel Prices.
 Stanley Gets New Data.

New York.-It was made known here at the headquarters of the house of representatives committee of in- quiry into the United States Steel Cor poration that the committee is now very desirous of hearing personally to the absorption of the Tennessee Coal & Iron Company by the steel corporation in 1907. That a subpoena will be issued within a few days for Charles M. Schwab, former president of the United States Steel Corpora tion, also was made known. MT. Schwab has just returned from Flu rope.
 Since so many important witnesses have defended MT. Morgan for his the consummation of the Tennessee Coal X Iron requirement by the steel corporation, the desire of members of the committee to hear MT. Morgan has increased Lewis Cass Ledyard attorney for Oliver Payne, who first urged that Mir Morgan be called in to suggest the Tennessee purchase by the steel trust, strongly defended MT. Morgan before the committee and de nounced intimations that a conspiracy existed at that time. MT. Ledyard also intimated in his testimony that an effort was being made in the investi gation to manufacture political capi tai
 "The best man to defend J. Pierpont Morgan for his part in the Tennessee Coal & Iron transaction" said Chair man Stanley, ''is MT. Morgan himself I sincerely hope Mr. Morgan's engage ments in Europe will not deter him from appearing before the investiga ton is concluded. Mir. Morgan's owI story of that transaction and the mo mentous events at the time of that | financial panic and the effect of the steel stock transfer in the midst oi 1t are certain to be of great value.'' That the great New York financiel will be subpoenaed to appear before the committee when he does return there now seems little doubt. MT. Sehwab will be examined prin cipally about steel prices and the stee corporations power in steadying tht market prices of steel products | throughout the country.

FREE LIST BILL
 THROUGH SENATE
THE DsMocRATIc-PRoG REPUBLICAN, COMBINATION
 PASSES THE MEASURE.
One More Democratic Member Would Have Left the Revision Issue
 Up to President Taft.

Nashington.-The Democratic tar riff program was moved up closer to President Taft when the senate, by another remarkable coalition of Dem ocratss and Republican insurgents. passed farmers free list bill. after voting down the original measure SO closely that one more Democratic senator would have changed the re- suit and left the entire revision issue squarely before the president.
 The f'unholy alliance" as the com bination of the Republican wing and the Democratic party has been called. massed' in almost unbroken align ment, swept aside host of amend ments, voted down by tie vote the original house measure, according to program for political purposes, and then carried by a surprising concen- tration of strength measure differ Ing from the house bill only in com paratively unimportant particulars. Now the bill goes back to the house. and Democratic Leader Underwood of that body confidently asserts that 1t will be Finally agreed to in conference between the two houses and sent to President Taft.
 It Is not certain that the house will insist on conference, for many prominent Democratic representa- tives, believing that the biu has not been materially changed, are urging that the house accept the senate bill without controversy and rush the first off the tariff measures up to tho president for veto or approval. Had Senator Bailey of Texas voted with his Democratic associates or had Gov. Hoke Smith of Georgia, as the | new senator-elect from that state, been on hand and voted with his party, the free list bill would have passed the senate unchanged and and could have been in the hands oa President Taft. One vote was all that stood in the way of placing the entire issue of of Democratic In- surgent tariff reform immediately be- fore him.

The bill would give pensions of from s1 to $4 a week. MT. Berger offered a joint resolution providing for the appointment of commission to investigate the old-age pension question.

OWEN CRITICISES
 FEDERAL JUDGES
ADVOCATES APPLICATION OF RE- CALL TO MEMBERS OF THE
 SUPREME COURT.
Says Fourteenth Amendment, Instead of Protecting the Negroes,
 Protects Trusts.

Washington.-Severe criticism of the supreme court of the United States marked the speech of Senator Owen of Oklahoma, who advocated before the senate the adoption of his bill providing for the election and re- eall of federal judges. This bill pro- yides that any judge of any other United States court shall be subject fo recall by q resolution of congress; that all district and circuit judges of the United States shall be elected by the voters of the district or circuit. and that their tenure of office be four years.
 Criticising the courts, the speaker said that the Fourteenth amendment, intending to protect the negro, has been twisted from it's purpose to pro- tect the trust and monopolies in i'm posing long hours of labor upon em- ployes on the absurd theory that to deny the employe the right to work long hours is a denial of his consti- tutional privileges.
 The speaker dWelt upon the decla- ration of the supreme court of the United States that the income tax law of some 16 years ago was uncon- sttutional. The decision in this case" said the senator, by the change of the vote of one judge, of one lawyer in this court, appointed at whose instance we do not know, that cost the poorer people of the United States hundred million a year for over Is years. s1,600.000,000 in all, and relieved those best able to bear the tax of like amount. What bet ter evidence could be afforded of the patience, forbearance and conserva- tism of the people that they have so long borne patiently with such de cision?"

Flood, progressive Democrat.
Flood proposed that the people
of New Mexico be given a chance

suggested that the proposition
be placed on a little blue ballot.
And so the little blue ballot be-
came a part of the next election
in New Mexico and about three
fourths of the people voted for it.

| came over into New Mexico to
see what they meant when they
said that the little blue ballot"
had carried this budding new
state at the recent election.
Yes, the little "blue ballot" car
ried the day and it means that the
corporations which cooked up a
constitution for money and big
business rule in New Mexico
were routed horse, foot and dra-
goons.
When the territorial constitu-
tional convention met it was
found that the railroads, the pow
er companies and big land com
panies had somehow succeeded in
getting safe voting majority.
And what they did to that con-
stitution was a sin!
Judge A. B. Fall, once a Demo
crat, now Republican, and a
candidate put forth by the big in
terests for the United States
senatorship of New Mexico,
openly said:
New Mexico is a corporation
state and it needs laws that help
corporations"
And then they fixed it UP that
there should be no amendment
to the constitution for quarter
of a century.
Richard A. Hanna is progress
sive Republican. He raised a
mighty howl, but the people
wanted to join the union and so
they passed the constitution.
Hanna didn't give up. He went |
to Washington and kicked some.
