Representative Mondell of Wyoming
introduced bill to appropriate 5000,

reserves of the West.
According to the figures in the "Sta-
tistical Abstract of the United States,

of 100000 900 the total voting strength

That President Taft will veto the

in any modified form as a result of
the House action and conference on
the assertion of those who assume to
speak for him.
After a three-hour debate behind
closed doors, the Senate, 81 to 4,
adopted the Lodge resolution defining
the attitude of the United States in
of the acquisition by for

western hemisphere which might be
used as military or naval base or
menace ''the approaches" of this
country.
Further limitations curbing contri.
buttons to political campaigns were
in bill agreed on by the
Senate committee on privileges and
elections and reported to the Senate
for passage. Predictions are made
that it would be enacted into law at
once. By the new bill all corporations
are prohibited from contributing
money or anything of value to the
or election of presidential
electors, Representatives in Congress
or state Legislators who elect senator's.

Washington.-Weste Republican
senators who are in tho confidence of
the President are, certain he will veto
the wool bill, which was completed by
the adoption, 35 to 2S, of the confer
ence report upon it in the Senate.
The fact that but six Insurgent SEN
ators Joined with the Democrats in
support of the bill, that it was opposed
by Senator Cummins and that Insurg-
ents Bourne, Nelson and Borah voted
against it, will serve to strengthen the
Presidents determination to repeat
his action of last year.
In the opinion of Senators Smoot,
Warren, Guggenheim and other sena-
tors from wool-growing states, the bill
passed would not afford adequate pro-
lection to either growers or manufac-
turers in the wool business.
The iron and steel tariff bill re-
and Acting President Bacon of the
Senate, and went to President Taft.
This is the first of the tariff revis.
ion bills passed by the Democratic
Progressive alliance in the Senate to
reach the chief executive, and close
friends of the President express the
conviction that he will veto it because
no investigation of the industry has
been made by the tariff board.
An attempt by the conferees on the
excise tax bill to reach an agreement
was not successful. After session OF
more than an hour, the conference
committee adjourned.
An agreement reached by the Sen
ate and House conferees on the agri-
cultural appropriation bill retains N
the bill Senator Guggenheim's amend
ment, giving an increase of S25,000 for
the investigation and eradication Of
insects affecting cereal and forage
crops, including the alfalfa weevil, the
total appropriation being $4,000. Also
his amendment giving an increase Of
$4,000 for the eradication of insects
injurious to truck crops and sugar
beets was passed. The entire appro.
priation is 100000. 1t devotes ten per
cent. of the proceeds of sales and
rents from national forests of 1912 to
public road construction in the forests.
Notice was served on the Senate
that under no circumstances would the
House agree to a continuation of the
tariff board. Provision for such con-
tinuation had been placed by the Sen
ate in a number of appropriation and
tariff measured, but to each amend
ment the House has presented an un-
yielding front. Senate leaders were
notified that their insistence on that
provision would delay adjournment.
House conferees on all the bills con-
tanning the Senate amendment provid-
ing for the tariff board have been in-
structed not to yield.

coIorado's Factory output s,so,ooo, 900.

Washington.-Colora prosperity
for 1912 will be shown not alone In
the record-breaking yield of her lands
and the s200.0O0,OOO the farmers will
receive for that yield, but in increased
activity in almost every line of bust
ness, and especially increased output
of factories.
Colorado's factory output, as shown
by the census bureau, was about $780,.
100000 in 1909. Last year was not an
exceptionally prosperous year for man
ufacturers in the state, and the output
was perhaps no greater than for 1909.
But it will be much greater this year,
reaching $150,OO0,00O.

San Francisco is to have a hall OF

The wheat harvest of Minnesota and
the two Dakotas will break all records
this year The yield will be 265,0U0,-
900 bushels this year, as against 1885,
100000 bushels in 1905, the highest
previous mark ever attained.
Meagre and delayed advices from

In the twenty-one years of the his

The United States has become a

the last two years the total production
has averaged just a trifle short of the
5O0,0O0,000 mark, exceeding that fig
