FIGHT ON lOR|MER .
Will Be CONTINUED
Minority Report Will Be Presented
With Full Force by Some
Il l of Ablest Senator'S

WASHINGTON, May 2O.--The sec
ond struggle for the retention of Lori
mer of Illinois in the senate may be
precipitated at any time before the
final adjournment The issues were
drawn today In the majority and
minority reports of the special inv ssti-
eating committee.
Senator Lea fnr., the minority intro
duced a resolution declaring that cor
rupt practices were employed in
Lorimer's election and that the cleo
ton was therefore invalid. This reso-
luton will be called up later, when
Senator Kern of Indiana will probably
open the debate for the minority. The
majority, beaded by Dillingham; of
Vermont, chairman of the committee,
stood by the senate's previous judg-
ment in favor of Lorimer.
The minority contended that at
least ten votes for Lorimer in the
Illinois legislature were corrupt,
scored Edward Hines of Chicago and
attacked the majority's support of
the plea of "res adjudicata," saying
It'll is uncomfortable that majority of
| the members, "all of them dis
tinguished lawyers" would have pro-
ceeded with the investigation with
out the right of Jurisdiction"

Clyde d. Samson, son of Mr.. and
Mrs e. E. Samson Of this city, who
is now in Australia in the employ OF
the government there as an apple ex-
pert, is receiving considerable atten-
ton from the Australian and Tasma-
MAN papers and is quoted at length
by leading journals of Hobart, Tas-
mania and Melbourne, and 1t would
appear from the reports that there
Is a revival of the fruit interests In
those colonies Of Great Britain. Mr..
Samson, writing to his father, men,
toned the fact that he had expected
to visit Tasmania, and from there go
to Perth, in West Australia. In the
Melbourne Argus is devoted a column
to suggestions made by Mr.. Samson
in which he advocated the adoption
of definite system of packing which
will at once indicate to the purchaser
the number Of fruit contained in a
package and its quality. Mr.. Sam
son, Is also endeavoring to have the
growers organize SO as better to over

is somewhat shorter than that used
in this country, but according to re-

adapting the diagonal pack to its ca

manner which has caught the fancy
of the colonists who see in the system
a distinct advance over methods they
have been following. The interest in

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
WAS NEVER BETTER
Statements From All Section Of In
land Empire Confirm the
Assertion of This Fact

SPOKANE. Wash, Nav 17---Bank-
ers, millers, commission men and
transportation officials returning from
tours eastern Washington and Or
egon, northern and central Idaho,
western Montana and southeastern
British Columbia report that crop
conditions were never brighter in the
Pacific and interntountaiu country
than at present. Indications are the
grain and hay yields will be the larg-
est in the history of the district, be-
cause of abundant moisture during
the winter months and the increased
acreage. The apple. prune, pear.
peach and cherry crops also give
promise of being record breakers.
Mixed Farming . Feature
Assessors of the various counties
in the Inland Empire district report
that mixed farming is being practised
more extensively than before, saying
al that Thousands of acres former
ly devoted exclusively to wheat, are
now used for diversified agriculture
Pure bred cows and hogs are being
brought into the country from tho
central states and more attention is
given to all kinds of poultry.
Samuel Galland, president of the
Spokane Clearing House association,
said in an interview today that the
banks In Spokane and throughout the
district have more money than they
can conveniently handle, despite the
fact there Is good demand for
loans. The association has underta-
ken to finance the apple crop this
season. and for this alone 1t is es-
timated that fully $15,000,000 will be
REQUIRED.
Mining Another Activity
There Is greater activity than at
any previous time in the last four
years In metal mining operations, and
1t Is reported by operators that not
less than a dozen properties in Wash
ington, Idaho and the province of
British Columbia will join the list OF
dtvidend-payer within the next 80
days. The lumber industry also is
looking up. the present demand be-
ing largely from the prairie prov

Dr., Spitzka's examinations have

the feminine brain is smaller and the
convolutions broader and more simple
