about to start crew of carpenters at
work on the construction of a lumber

owner of 20 acres of orchard in the
Willow Flat section which belonged to

of orchard during the past few years.
The twenty acres is practically all set to
trees, ranging from those just planted
to eight years old. The bearing trees
have shown exceptionally good crops.
Some of the three and seven year old
trees are generally considered to be
uneXcelled in size for their age. The
place is well improved with dwelling,
fruithouse and barns and a bearing
home orchard. The price paid for the
twenty acres was $4,000.

FEAR EXCISE BILL
WILL FAIL TO PASS
Senate and House In Tangle Over
This and the Sugar
Bill.

The situation between the House and
Senate over the excise and sugar bills
has become badly tangled. and It is now
feared that these measures will not pass
this session. .
The obstacle In the excise bill Is the
reciprocity repeal amendment. Leader
Underwood insists this shall be elimina-
ted. The Senate conferees offer to COM
promise by receding from the Senate
amendment and providing for free paper
and wood pulp, but Mr.. Underwood Is
unwilling to do this.
Not only Is there trouble oyer the ex-
else bill but also over the sugar bill,
because Mr.. Underwood is not willing
to accept the Senate sugar bill, a
measure which President Taft would
sign. In the mix-up the public will.
apparently. get no relief in the matter
of sugar duties.

enemies Of the navy" remained away
and broke quorum.
At the next caucus II is practically
certain that a compromise on one bat
tleship will be reached. Congressman
Sulzer and more than a score of others
are still fighting for two. but the latter
authorization is improbable unless the
Senate resolves to stand pat on the
naval program. 1t Is not believed the
Senate will hold out long against one
ship compromise.
There is yet considerable bitterness
on the Democratic side OF the House
because of the deliberate absence from
the Tuesday caucus of the anti-battleship
contingent, who invoked this plan to
prevent the resembling of the former
caucus action which declared against
all warship authorization so far as this
session Is concerned. The suppression
of the roll call. showing the absentees,
by the caucus chairman Is also the
cause of Democratic discomfort.
Under the circumstances Messrs. Clark
and Underwood decided the time had
come to step into the breach, and the
next few days will be spent In smooth
ing down the ruffled Democrats. When
a semblance of party harmony has been
restored another caucus will be held
and talk of a compromise will meet
with a better reception.
