CHAMBER is DENOUNCED
Rev. ]. ]. Wicker Used Strong Ian.
gnage on Position Taken on
Jordan Bill.

Richmond, Feb. 27.-Between
bursts of deafening applause from the
gallery, packed to the doors tonight,
Rev. J. ]. Wicker, Of Lee Street Bap-
list Church, before the Senate Com
mittee on privileges and elections, de-
nounced the action of the Richmond
chamber of commerce in opposing the
Jordan enabling act, measure giving
the right to the people of Virginia to
vote for state wide prohibition as
mercenary.
So forceful was his language and so
unmistakable his meaning that men,
bers of the chamber lost their temper.
John B. Purcell, president of the First
National Bank, and a member Of the
board Of directors Of the chamber, his
face flushed with anger, following Mr..
Wicker, pointed his finger at the cler-
gyman and declared he was hypo-
critic, wearing the cloth of the pulpit.
Mr.. Wicker only smiled, but the gal
lery broke into prolonged series Of
Kisses that ceased only when the SER
gent-at-arms threatened expulsion.
John C. Easley, a member Of the
board of directors Of the chamber,
declared Mr.. Wicker had made de-
liberate misstatement.
The words used by Mr.. Wicker, that
brought upon his head the unchecked
wrath of the two members of the
chamber were these:
"There are only two questions in
volved-the question Of men and the
question of dollars. There is not q
man in the State Of Virginia opposed
to this act but who is against it be-
cause of the money in it for him
self.

GOOD DRY FARM
CROPS ASSURED

Ogden, Utah, July. The crop
prospects in Weber county and
all northern Idaho tributary TO
this city were never better. A
canvass made by the Standard
shows a bumper crop everywhere
with plenty Of moisture for the
remainder Of the growing seas
on, and commenting on this
pleasant condition this paper
says: THE dry-farmers are to
harvest an unprecedented crop,
and this fall thousands Of tillers
of the soil who have been strug-
Cling to get a start will have

the bank.
The Ogden and Brigham dis
tricts last year sent out through
the refrigerator car company 600
carloads Of fruit. and this year
the agent estimates that the
shipment will exceed /, 300 car
loads.
The success Of dry-farming in

ANIMALS PUNISHED
TO MAKE PICTURES
By Smiley Fowler.

The public is largely to blame |
for many Of the cruelties which
are inflicted on animals, for in
stance, the untold horrors OF the
capture, training and keeping in
captivity of animals and reptiles
in the travelling menageries. The
latest atrocities. which undoubt-
eddy arise from the popular clam
or for something that contains
the greatest possible number OF
thrills to the minute. are the al
legged Western dramas as ar
ranged for the motion picture
shows. The scenes of course
have been photographed from ac-
tual occurrences. In the greater
part of them feats of "horseman-
ship" are prominent. and most
Of these involve merciless hard
ships on the animals which play
the parts.
IL is we'll known that no ex-
pense is spared in the prepare
ton of the films. and the crippl-
ing or killing of few decrepit
horses is thought not too gieat a
sacrifice to appease the taste of
a morbid public. saw one film
in which a number of horsemen
were galloping at breakneck
speed down a mountain side.
They were kicking the barbarous
spurs into the horses thin ribs,
and wheeling them right and left
with the cruel bits among the
boulders that strewed the way.
Suddenly one horse fell, the rider
landing safely at some distance,
and the others came tumblinp
upon him ina heap. If the men
are sometimes hurt by the fool
hardy risks that they take it is
their own fault, and they are
doubtless we'll paid for it. but
who can guess what the poo,
horses endure in such scenes
