DIVORCE COLONY

Reno, New, April 4-Reno's di-
vorce colony was the object of Theo-
dore Roosevelt's fire yesterday during
his principal address of the day, de-
liVered to n crowd of several thousand
grouped about the court house steps.
1T is one colony Of which you want
to rid yourselves" said Mr.. Roose-
welt. 81 don't care what you do with
those of your own state who seek di-
yorce, but keep citizens OF other states
who want divorces out of Nevada
Don't allow yourselves to be deceived
by the argument that such a colony
brings money to your city. You can't
afford to have that kind of money
brought here. Keep that whole coll
ony out"
Mr.. Roosevelt declared that the
divorce seekers. who came to Nevada
were endeavoring to evade their duty.
and that such citizens could be of no
benefit to this state.

Washington. April 4.-Legions of
nappy democrats today stormed the
house end OF the capitol the prize
OF their November victory.
Stalwart Champ Clark was the star
feature Of the occasion so joyous to
his party brethren As he sank grace
fully onto the highback chair the
Cannon throne. the climax of party
triumph seemed to have been reach
ed and the acclamatlon OF the demo-
Gratis on the floor and in the balcon-
ies was without bounds.
Since March 1. 1895, when Chas.
F. Crisp Of Georgia, laid aside the
gavel there had been no democrat in
the speakers chair.
on the senate wing of the house of
government there had been a large
shrinkage in the republican majority
but no change in party control and
so there was no demonstration to mar
the dignity Of the opening ceremonies.
Holdover senators were almost dazed
by the number of strange men in
their midst, mostly unknown and I'M
sung political warriors, appearing as
successors of battle-scarred veterans
who had bossed the state for years
On the dot of twelve, gavel taps
at both ends of the capitol signaled
for order and the special session was
under way. President Taft had mob
ilized the statesmen to get into ac-
ton on his reciprocity trade agree
ment with Canada, which was passed
by the last house but neatly smother
ed by the senate.
Democrats to Revise Tariff.
Democrats in the house expect to
reach the subject by and by and. IL
the meantime, will try their hands at
a revision of features of the Payne
Aldrich tariff law. Reduced rates on
wool. Schedule *, will be their first
offering Predictions of members as
to the length OF the session range in
time from July to September.
Interest centered in the house be-
cause of the turnover in control. Men
were willing to give high prices for
the privilege of seeing "Uncle Joe"

and the valiant Missourian, with the
national flag as a background and

Galleries Are Crowded.
There was an awful jam. Folks
who were children when the democrats
last held the house and II seemed
there could not be any speakers ex-
cept "Tom" Reed and Joe" Cannon,
marched in columns to the capitol,
hours before the time for opening the
session. They packed the Railways
and patiently faced locked doors, bid
ing the time when they should be ad-
mtted. With the opening Of the way
to the seats trede followed a rush and
a scramble and the galleries were
filled.
Women. radiant in the bright hues
of spring finery, composed at least
half the audience. Diplomats filled
their reservation and President Taft,
It was shown. had invited guests to

der his control by the house.
