together in one great sisterhood and
brotherhood"
Is the membership confined to the
United States?"
No; but most of the members are
Americans. We have a few clubs in
England and other countries across
It was largely through the persist
ent and well directed efforts of this
organization that the pure food bill
and q number of other acts that are
of great benefit to the people of the
country were enacted by congress. Its
influence has been felt upon the legis-
latiOn of many states.
Resolutions of Convention.
NJ time has been so occupied since
the recent convention that 1 have as
yet had no opportunity to give care
full consideration 10 the several reso-
lutiOns adopted by the San Francisco
convention" said Mrs Pennybacker
upon her return to Austin. The next
meeting of the national board will
probably be held in September. The
place is not yet decided upon. We
will then carefully go over each rec
Ommendation embraced in the resolu-
tions adopted at the recent convention
and outline a plan for carrying them
into effect The work of the fedora
ton is accomplished through various
committees and by direct cooperation
of state declarations and individual
clubs Each club is an important unit
in the general organization and its in
fluence and effect upon its own COM
munity are materially felt"
It is in the smaller towns that the
club women occupy positions of more
or less social exclusiYeness. But much
is being done. it is said, to remove this
obstacle which stands in the way OF
the perfect performance of valuable
functions Of the clubs. The society of
the smaller towns is often made up of
cliques and factions and petty jeal-
ousies and local prejudices frequently
find their way into women clubdOm.
The Great Principles.
One of the great principles of the
organization, Mrs. Pennybacker says,
is to place all women on the same
equality; to promote aspirations for
the Improvement of their own condi-
ton and that of their families and
fellOwmen. Socalled social prestige
has no place in the National Fedora
ton Of Women's clubs.
NO one asks what is the social po-
sition of this or that member" contin-
ued Mrs. Pennybacke1 in discussing
this subject. You never hear il asked
at our conventions If Mrs. Soandso is
rich. It makes no difference to Us
how wealthy or how poor a member
may be. All are on an equal footing"
During the last few years the noble
work which the Wamen's clubs of the
country is doing inNvarious lines of
improvement and uplift has become
well known and widely recognized by
the people generally as one of the most
potent factors in the cOuntrys civic,
educational and social progress.

est midsummer spectacle and entertain
ment opens here in one week The
elaborate water carnival and naval re-
view will be presented off Grant Park
on the lake front. Although it is to
be essentially a Chicago affair. a num-
Der of other cities and even foreign
nations viii participate.
William Hale Thompson, commodore
of the Associated Yacht and Power
clubs of America, is at the head OF
arrangements. The association for COM
merce has entered, into the spirit OF
the promotion with much enthusiasm,
with the result that Chicago is prom
ised the most pretentious entertain
ment of this character ever attempted
The exhibition is TO include exhib-
its by the United states Navy. the
navy training school from the north
shore, the naval reserve. the life saw
ing service, the revenue cutter ser
Ice, and many other branches OF the
outdoor government service There is
also to be an international race be-

stand is to be built upon the govern
ment pier with plenty of accommoda-
tions for every one who desires to see.
President Thompson in speaking OF
the prizes said
In the way of prizes our business
men have been most generous. VIII
liam Wrigley, Jr., made this great
event possible by giving what is rep
resented TO be a $4,000 prize This
was originally q $4,000 trophy to be
raced for annually, but when We ar
ranged to have that held annually in
Chicago, Mr.. WriSley salG;-
81 do not know whether that
sounds sportsmanlike or not. Bill, and
I guess we had better do something
little better So he arranged to trus-
tee $1,000 so that the interest Of that
money could buy miniature to go
permanently to the man who won that
cup each year. We are also offering
cash prizes so that by winning these
a part for the expenses of some OF
these boats that come a long distance
may be betrayed. In this way we have
interested many highly desirable peo-
pie"
The show opens on August 10 and
lasts one week.

The activities of the Knights are
varied TO suit the needs of the loca-

BEFORE COMMITTEE
Head OF Corporation Differs
From Judge Gary and

Washington, January o2.-James J,
Farrell, president OF the United States
Steel Corporation, protested before the
Stanley steel Investigating committee
to-day against Unnecessary publicity OF
manufacturers cost OF steel products
In this country as ruinouS to foreign
trade of domestic manufacturers. He
also discussed with the committee the
Gary dinners" and IDEAS OF trust regu-
lation. which differed somewhat from
suggestions previously made by Ebert
H. Gary, executive head of the Steel
Corporation. Andrew Carnegie. and
others.
President Farrell asserted that the
Cary dinners a which steel manu-
facturers assembled to discuss the
trade, lad no influence in fixing or
maintaining prices. though he thought
they had influence in maintaining the
stability of the market.
II do not believe" he said. that the
prices OF any two sIcel manufacturers
In the United states to-day are alike"
why has Judge Gary said that the
day of competition has passed?" asked
Representative Bcall.

Il believe that there should be pub

Farrell. Il think that there should
be supervising board. but believe
that 1t would be impracticable, almost
impossible, for a governmental board
TO fix prices, even TO fix maximum
prices. To determine the cost of arr
ticIcs manufactured in the steel busl-
ness alone requires corps of hundreds
of experts.
II would have supervisory board.
which would have authority to invss-

OF preventing not unusually high rates,

would result in reduced wages and

Mr. Farrell said he did not believe

SUPREME COURT RULES
Far-Reaching Victory IS Won by
the Liquor Inter
cStS.

Washington, January 22.-Liouor In
terests to-day won far-reachine vic
tory In the United States Suprme Court
by decision that railroads must carry
beer when offered for transportation
into dry" counties of another State.
The decision affected particularly ship
ments from Indiana into Kentucky.
Justice Lurton. who announced tho
courts decision. also laid down some
limitations on sthe jurisdiction of the
interstate Commerce Commission. lie
upheld the action OF shippers In going
before judicial tribunals to test the
validity of laws rather than to the
commission. He said that the commits
sion had jurisdiction over administers
tive tons and matters of fact, but
the courts over questions of general
law.
Justice Lnrton declared decisions of
the Supreme Court had Indisputably
determined:
Ihat beer and other intoxicat ting
liquors are the recognized and legiti-
mate subjects of interstate commerce.
That no State can forbid any com
mon carrier to transport such articles
from consignor in one State TO II
consiEnee In another
THAT until such transportation Ia
concluded by delivery to the cousirnee
such comm ODDITIES do not become sub
ject to such regulation restraining
their sale or disposition"
He explained that the Wilson act.
which had subjected such liquors to
State regulations, although the liquor
still was in original packag GEES did not
apply before actual delivery To the
consiSncc where the shipment was IN

Louisville and Nashville Railroad Com
pany refused TO carry beer offered by

shipment because Il Kentucky law Of
1906 forbade bringing Intoxicating
liquors into local option districts.

DR.. HARVEY WILEY
HELD NOT GUILTY.
Nations Chief Chemist Wins
Sweeping Decision From
Committee.
REPORT FILED IN HOUSE
Recommended That He Be
Given More Power in Fight
Tor Pure Food.

Washington, January 22.-Dr. Iar-
vey w. Wiley Is held mot guilty" OF
conspiracy to evade tho law, in re-
port filed with the House to-day by the
committee which conducted an lLyesti
cation last August into the Charges
upon which President Taft was asked
TO dismiss the nations chief chemist
from the government service.
Not only does the committee absolve
DR.. Wiley from criticism of employ.
ment of DR.. II. Ii. RuSby, of New York,
as government expert at a tcchnicni
rate OF $50 per day. but IL attacxs in
measured terms the whole admjnistra-
ton of the national pure food law, and
demands OF Congress action to change
the method in the Department CT Ag-
riculture by which the law Is now APP
piled.
Tho so-callcd Wiley investigation
! arose from the charges made in tho
Agricultural Department that DR..
Wiley, DR.. W. u. Bigelow and pr L. +.
! kebler, all OF the Bureau of Chemistry,
had secretly arranged with Dr. H. H.
| itusby, OF New York, so that the lat
ter need work only eighty days in the
year for an annual salury OF Sl,60U.
| This was declared to be dclibera e
evasion of the established limit OF so
per day.
Act ON High IInDc.
We find from the evidence that the
charges of conspiracy have moi been
established, says the committee re-
port. but on the contrary. that the ac-
cused officials We're actuated through
out solely by desire to procure for
the Bureau of Chemistry an efficient
assistant in the person of DR. IL. II.
Rusty, under terms and conditions
i which those officials believed TO be in
entire accord win the law, regulations
and practices OF the Department OF
Agriculture"
The report holds, however, that tue
contract for the employment Of DIR.
Rusty is technically Illegal, and re-
commends that Congress mako specific
provision for tho employment cf cx-
pcrts in the Agricultural Department.
Charges were made during the COM
mttca hearings that the work of DR..
| Wiley and his associates was revised
and often rejected either by Solicitor
McCabe or by the Board of Food and
| Drug Inspection. OF which Mr.. Nc
Cabe. Dr. Wiley and Associate Chemist
Dunlap were the members. The posi-
