The annual meeting of the Woman's

The statement which it makes con-
corning my attitude towards oleomar-
garine legislation now pending in Con-
gress, is in its entirety and in every par
ticular absolutely unwarranted by the
facts.
The Treasury Department is rsspon-
sible for the administration of the pre-.
sent law on that subject. 1t holds and
has for some time held that the present
law is inefficient both in the production
of revenue and In the prevention of
fraudulent sales. For some time this
Department has been asking for law
that would produce revenue and that
would prevent fraud. AS result many
bills have been introduced. They were
referred to the Committee on Agricul-
ture, of which | am the member from
New England. In turn these bills were
referred to a Subcommittee of five,
three Democrats and two Republicans,
these two being Mr., Haugen, of Iowa,
and myself The Bill which met with
most favor at the Treasury Department
was the Lever Bill. 1t became our duty
to consider all the bills and make report
to the full Committee.
My position ON these bills was stated
at the first meeting of the Sub-Commit-
tee. 1t was that in the interest of the
butter maker and of the consumer all
fraud in the sale of oleomargarine must
be eliminated to the last degree 50 far
as it can be done through Congression-
al action.
During the entire sitting of the Sub
Committee Mr.. w. E. Carter, of Rut-
land, President of Vermont Dairymen's
Association, was present, gave valuable
assistance, knows my attitude towards
the matter from the beginning and ap-
proves it. Hon. G. F. Smith, Master of
the State Grange, was present at the
hearings of the full Committee, knows
my attitude and trusts me. The late
Representative Foster, in his lifetime,
was in constant touch with me concern
ing this legislation, knew of my position
and purpose and was in full accord.
/ Senators Dillingham; and Page have
been advised with by me, know and
| fully sustain me in what have done
and in what l am trying to do. Hon.
| o. l.. Martin, of Plainfeld, Commissian-
er of Agriculture, has been consulted by
me on this matter, as have others, and
approves my plan and purpose. George
NJ. Whitaker, Secretary of the National
Dairy Union, was in frequent conference
with Mr.. Carter and myself while the
work of the Sub Committee was in pro-
gress.
From this platform l have not deviat-
ed hair and shall not. No bill now
before the committee fully satisfies me.
believe there may be and should be
improvement. Efforts are being made
to formulate bill that will be satisfac-
tory to all interests. That this may be
done and done wisely, on a motion
made by me in the full Committee re-
Gently the whole question has been post
poned until next December. Nothing
but bill which to the last degree pos
sible prevents fraud upon the butter
maker and fraud upon the consumer of
oleomargarine will be supported by me.
Letters to or personal talks with any
or all of the gentlemen named or with
any or every Member of the Committee
on Agriculture are solicited by me if ver-
fcation of my statement is needed or
desired

CANAL TO BE DONE IN YEAR
Such Is the Deduction From the An
nuaI Report of Colonel GoethaIs
for the Commission.

Washington, Nov. 18.-That the
Panama canal will be completed with
in the next twelve months is clearly
indicated by Col. George w. Cocktails
in his annual report to the secretary Of
war, which was made public here to-
day.
While the chief engineer of the big
gest job on earth does not say in SO
many words that his labors will be
through in a year, he contrasts the
work that was done during the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1912, with what
work remains to be done, and the rea-
sonable deduction is that by this time
next year the gigantic task will be at
an end and vessels will be threading
their way back and forth between the
Atlantic and Pacific oceans through
the worlds greatest artificial water
way.
The most important work that ls
yet to be done is the completion Of the
lock gates. All the steel and other
material that is necessary to make
these gates is now in the shops in the
canal zone and the work is going for
ward rapidly.

The Country Editor.

Yes. Sissy. country editors are
usually poor folks. You see they
give away so much of what they have
to sell-space and they have to pay
out money to have the type set to fill
the space they give away. They are
poor because Uncle Sam is forever
sending out bulletins to print. but
never a check enclosed. They are
poor because the University sponges on
them every week in the year with
bulletins galore. They are poor be-
obituary poetry takes so much
of their space and work. They are
poor because they are forever boosting
public enterprise and getting nothing
for it They are poor because they
give their columns up to every CAB
fest and hot air controversy started in
the community. In short. Sissy, they
are poor because they work about
fourteen hours per day for other people
and only about one hour for them
selves-X.

suffrage for women that it is doubtful
if to those to whom the new privilege
has come can yet fully realize 1t.
It has always been assumed by most
of those who gave any thought to the
subject that women IN Michigan and
elsewhere would some time be given
equal privilege with men in the
matter of governing their state and
country. But the time when this
situation would exist was thought to
be remote and quite uncertain. 1t
would appear to be here, however, so
far as Michigan is concerned. and
hereafter political appeals and
political problems must be submitted
to the women of our city and county
and state as we'll as to the men.
It will seem a little strange at first,
no doubt. but the probabilities are
very greatly in favor Of the assump-
tion that the experience will disap-
point those who have had most doubts
as 20 its good RESULTS and will justify
the claims and hopes of those who
have urged that the influence of
woman as a full privileged voter will
be helpful with reference to every in
ciGent of the practical movements of
life which it influences and de-
termines. -Cadillac 0Mich News.

TRUST is DISSOLVED
AMERICAN TOBACCO COMPANY,
AS MONOPOLY, DESTROYED.
President Hill Declares Competition
Is Keen Among Concerns Compos-
ing Original Corporation.

New York, Nov. 18.-The G
ton that the government proceedings
for dissolution of the tobacco trust
have not destroyed the monopoly is
rlolculed by the American Tobacco
company.
In a five thousand word frank
statement Of conditions" Percival S.
Hill, president of the company, dis
cusses the results Of the decree of the
circuit court of the United States for
the southern district Of New York,
providing for the disintegration of
the trust.
rs it possible that sane men man
aging these various companies" he
asks, after pointing out the large
number Of statesmen, jobbers and 9TH
ers in the tobacco trade, would con-
template collusive and feigned com
petition in the face Of such an army
OF witnesses, and in the teeth of in
Junctive provisions Of a decree dis
obedience of which would lead to con-
dign punishment? What will be the
effect of the competition, no man can
tell, but that the competition will
continue to be real is absolutely
true
Mr.. Hill declares that the common
stock of the company had sold al
ways under the shadow of an impend-
ing government litigation" that in the
court proceedings everyone had an
opportunity to learn the value Of the
properties from the detailed statement
filed.
After the disintegTatiOn,' ne says,
"all Of these securities were sold out
from under the shadow of a govern
ment suit for dissolution, and it is
well known that securities whose mar
ket value is low compared with their
par value, sell for nearer their real
value than those whose market value
is very high. These things explain
the difference in market values in the
aggregate of what has come to the
ccmmon stockholders of the American
Tobacco company, as compared with
the market value of their stock be-
fore the disintegration."
Puygss on the exchanges realize
that there is competition between the
companies formerly composing the
trust, asserts Mr.. Hill, hat competi-
ton may mean reduction Of the per-
centage of profits, but increased vol
ume of business that will prevent the
actual amount of profits Of a COM
petitor being diminished.

COURT HOUSE SQUARE
TO HAVE FINE LIGHTS
Eight Clusters of Five Each to be
Appropriately Placed.
County Board Voted to Install Them
and City to Stand Cost of
Maintenance.

From present indications the court
house square will o be lighted
with eight clusters of Mazda cleo
trio lights elevated upon ornamental
cast iron standards at the four cor
ners and side entrances to the grounds
after the manner of those recently
installed at Rvland Park and the
public library.
This is the outcome of a converse
tion that took place last week, while
the county board was assem- bled here.
in which Hon. G. Il. Baxter presi.
dent OF the Union State Bank, ex-
pressed the hope that such action
might be taken in the near future.
Somebody asked: "How much would
you give toward it, Senator 4" SID
give one hundred dollars" vas the
prompt reply.
The matter was taken up seriously
and at a session of the county board it
was proposed that eight such
groups of lights be installed at the
expense of the county, less 500 to
be contributed by Mr.. Baxter and the
motion carried.
The proposition is that while the
county stands the expense of installa-
tion as noted, the cost of maintenance
shall be borne by the city. and that
feature was discussed at a special
session of the city council, held on
Monday evening. Another meeting
OF the council was to be held last
evening at about the time The Herald
went to press, for the purpose of con
sidering the report of the committee
authorized To ascertain the cost of
such maintenance.
- When installed the new lights may
make it possible to dispense with the
arc lights at present used at the four
corners Of the square.

WOman's New Privilege in Michigan.

In a telegram from Detroit, given
on the first page of The Evening
News today. the statement is made
that the contest for woman suffrage in
Michigan has been won by a majority
of not less than 1900 votes. 1t is
the belief of The Evening News that
this apparent majority will be in
creased rather than decreased when
the final returns are received. The
fact that most of the larger cities of
the state gave majorities against
votes for women" explains why all
the earlier returns seemed to point to
an opposition victory. But the re-
turns from the smaller counties and
from the more remote election precincts
have overturned the mo" totals
first scheduled and have provided d
yes" balance which we do not think
will be overcome.
Such a comparatively short time has
elapsed since the opportunity was
provided for the voters of Michigan to
decide on the question as to equal

A OF TWO KINDS
SAYS T SAVANT
Winner of the Nobel Prize Thinks Kid

Are Transferable.

New York, Nov. 12.-"There are
two kinds of death, general death, or
death of the V lie organization. and

Such is the deliberate statement Of
DR.. Alexis Carrel of the Rockefeller
institute here.
To DR.. Carrel was awarded recent

for the most notable discoveries in
medicine and surgery.
In a word, DR.. Carrel, who has sue
~cessfully transplanted blood vessels,
bones and even kidneys from one TO
other animals, asserts that. at the
moment a man dies every healthy
organ in him would continue to live
if the proper circulation of blood were
restored to it.

say. Everybody understands what
it means Nevertheless, we are as

"A man, for instance, is stabbed
through the heart and killed. His
personality has disappeared. He is
dead. However, all the organs and
tissues which compose the body are
still living. The life of every tissue
and organ of the body could 60 on if
a proper circulation was given them.
If it were possible to transplant, i'm

organs which compose this body, into
other human organisms, no elemental
death would occur and all the con-

tinue to live.
STRA1GHTENS SPINE WITHOUT PAIN
Philadelphia, Nov. 1.-Two young
cripples, both suffering from the
curvature of the spine, were wheeled
into the operating room of Jefferson
hospital today, where the great
"~bloodless' surgeon, DIR. E. d.
Abbott of Portland, Me-, Strengthened
the backs of the little patients in
about ~forty-fve minutes. No anaes-
thetic was administered. With the
patients absolutely conscious every
minute, the surgeon manipulated the
spinal column in such a way that the
spine was Strengthened. A plaster
cast was then placed around the torso
and the sufferers were able in each
instance to walk from the operating
room. Neither complained of any
pain during the operation.
