WANTS PRICE CONGRESSIONAL
RECORD REDUCED.
Senator from Idaho Thinks it Would
be Disastrous if the People Were
Left to Obtain Information from
the Newspapers.

Associated Press.
Washington, d. c., April 5-Sena-
tor Hepburn of Idaho made a violent
attack on newspapers in the senate
today.
He urges the adoption Of an
amendment to the bill to rccodify
the printing laws. He said chat If
the price of printing the congress
sional record was reduced a large
number of people would be able to
secure the truth about sessions OF
congress.
The senator declared that Mum
chausen's record of his travels and
adventures would be mild in compar-
ison with newspaper accounts Of
what transpired in congress, if the
official record should be suppressed
for any cause.
He said that modern newspapers
printed only jests and sensations
about lawmakers. If people had to
depend on them for their education
in public affairs, he said, our gov
ernment would not long continue.

PLANT
FORMALLY OPENED
SAN BENITO'S NEW $4,000 EN-

One of Four of These Plants in United

ing company, the inventor of this
process, and formerly president of a
fruit growers association in Cali
fornia, made a speech to those pres
ent, and also gave demonstration
of the workings of this wonderful
plant. Cars of cabbage were actual
ly preceded this afternoon, and this
cabbage should reach market in per-
feet condition.
The capacity Of the plant is six
cars at time, and it takes about
three to five hours for each car The
entire cost of the plant is $S0,0OO.
In speaking to your correspondent,
Mr.. Sprague said that preceding
was no longer an experiment, and
said it was simply question of time
until these plants would be estab-
lished all over the fruit and truck
states.
The preceding plant here will be
one of the four of these wonderful
plants in the United States. The
great advantage to be derived from
the preceding process is that fruit
and vegetables can be put into the
cars ripe instead of green, and will
arrive at the destination in perfect
condition. Cars will, of course, have
to be iced as formerly, but when a
car of fruit or vegetables is iced it
takes about three days after they
leave the icing plant before the re-
frigeration begins to take place, and
in this time, much damage is done.
The preceding method is to ice
the cars as usual, and to completely
cool it off with frosty draughts of
air before it leaves, sometimes the
same being below zero, and this pre-
cooling lasts until after the ice in
in the boxes begins to take effect
The local manager of the concern
here has not been named as yet.
Cars from all over the Valley will
be preceded here. The plant is an
imposing STRUCTURE. a4a3an A

HEARING POSTPONED IN
 DUNN MAINTAINING SUIT
Summary Process Case Goes Over Till
 Later in Week.

The hearing on the summary pro- cess motion in the Dr. Dunn -Manwar- ing Hospital association controversy, at New London, scheduled for Monday morning, was postponed. The hear ing will probably be held Thursday morning.
 The hearing was postponed because of court sessions which prevented at- torneys in this matter being on hand Monday. Attorneys Perkins and Shields have filed with Justice of the Peace Charles E. Hickey, who is to hear the case an answer to the hos pital associations plea for summary process. The answer sets forth Dr. Dunn's contention. which is that the three year lease, dated October 1, 1912, and given Dr. Dunn by Dr. Graves, president of the hospital as- by virtue of having performed all the requirements of the lease, Is peaceful and lawful occupant of the premises.
 Monday afternoon the attorneys for the hospital were to file 0 paper in reply to the defendants answer. Tues day the justices jury to hear the mat ter will be drawn. It is drawn by a sheriff in the presence of the attor- neys for both sides. Six men consti- tute justices jury.
 The hearing on the summer process motion will be held at the county court house. Judge Hickey's office is toe small to accommodate the attorneys trustees of the hospital, Dr. Dunn and other interested parties as well as the spectators.
 It is expected that writ of errol will be filed with Justice Hickey by Attorneys Perkins and Shields for Dr Dunn. should the jury decide against Dr. Dunn. A writ of error if promptly filed prevents execution of summary process judgment and holds the mat ter up until the writ of error is pass. ed upon by the supreme court.
