NEWLANDS TO URGE
CONSTRUCTIVE PLAN
TOPREVENT FLOODS
Senator Will Make Address
Before Southern Congress
. This Afternoon.

A constructive policy for development
of waterways will be urged in a speech
making trip which Senator Newlands
has begun. He is taking the floods in
the Mississippi region as an object les
son. ,
Senator Newlands speaks this after
noon before the Southern Commercial
Congress at Nashville and will address
the National Drainage Congress at New
rOrieans Thursday afternoon. From
New Orleans he will go to Pittsburgh to
speak at a dinner given by the Pitts
burgh Flood Commission. The present
foods forcibly demonstrate the sub
stantial foundation for the agitation
for big action n our waterways said
Senator Newlands, before leaving. Our
rivers can never be properly regulated
by unrelated projects for their improve
ment here and there; by channel dredg-
ing and levee protection. II we are
ever to prevent these disastrous Hoods
and make the rivers serve their proper
function of waterway navigation, each
river must be treated as unit from
source to mouth and developed in a
scientific and orderly manner.
II shall urge the different associa tions
which ] address to appear Immediately
at washington and demand from both
parties the performances of their plat
form pledges with respect to water
ways. These platforms called for the
coordination of the scientific services of
tween the nation and the States, and for
big continuing appropriations for the
development OF our waterways under
comprehensive plans.
This idea has been indorsed in its
essential principles by President Taft
when Secretary of War. and 1t is under
legislation of this character that the
Panama canal and the national irriga-
ton works have been so successfully
prosecuted.
Newlands, sis embodied in the bill
which l recently introduced and which
has been Endorsed by the National Ir-
rigation Congress, the National Drain
age Congress, the Pittsburgh Chamber
of commerce, and numerous other COM
mercial and waterways organizations
throughout the country.
"It provides for the coordination OF
the scientific services of the Govern
ment in framing and executing large
plans, for cooperation between the
nation and States and communities in
performing works and in the division
of costs and benefits; and for the regu-
lation of rivers for navigation and 10

MADRID, Aug. 8.-Senor BarrOso,
minister of the interior is being con-
graduated on his narrow escape in an
elevator mishap. The cage in which
he was descending from his office
with two other members of the cabinet
got stuck between floors. Firemen
with ladders rescued his companions,
but Barroso was too corpulent &c be
showed through the space between the
cage and the side of the shaft. Final
ly they cut away portion of the roof
and hauled him up with ropes. AS
soon as he was out of danger, the min
lister painted, Never was a cabinet
member so near his fall" He had
barely finished this remark when the
cage fell to the bottom of the shaft
and was smashed to bits.

MAKE "MOONSHINE'
AND NOT TROUBLED

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Moon-
sinners and other violators of the in
ternal revenue law in The
Kentucky, West Virginia and other
mountain states of the Appalachian
region, where the picturesque char
acters of present day romances hold
forth, have gained temporary i'm
munity from the revenue officers,
through a lack of departmental apprO-
priations. Homemade stills are sim
mering along undisturbed in many a
mountain fastness, while alert own
ers and operators, made doubly Wig
liant by the apparent disregard of
the hated ''revenoos" are pacing in
nervous uneaSiness at the unusual
quiet and pace OF their lives.
Forty raiders of the internal rev.
enue service, brave men. renowned
for their daring and efficiency, have
been called from the hunt, because
there are no funds. These forty ;1len
are all being assigned to other work
and mOonshiners have gained tenn
porary immunity.
Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Cabell, said today, however, thai no
violator would escape punishment
and that they would all be caught
later.

Does American labor want to join
in a partnership" which will force
upon it the living standards of the COM
petitive pauper labor of Europe? Does
the American investor want to enter
into partnership" which will open
his natural markets to a competition
with which he cannot compete upon
equal terms of cost Of production?
Let us bring it home. Idaho mines
pay in wages, and in cash for sup
plies to the farmers, $6,246,000 yearly.
Idaho sheepmen pay in wages, for food
supplies, smithing labor, winter feed
and grazing rental in this state &c.
$4,000 yearly. Idaho lumber inter
ests pay yearly for labor S5,0G0,000
and $1,350,000 for food supplies in
this state, and have approximately
$500, 900, 900 to pay out in those chan
nels before the timber now standing
can be marketed. Idaho sugar beet
factories pay out for Idaho farm-rais
ed beets and for labor 81, 541 SIS year
ly. A total of $2O387, 500. And to
this there must be added the consider
alton by every farmer of the protec-
ton afforded him by the tariffs on
grain, meats and agricultural prod
ucts generally.
Shall the labor of the Occur d'Alenes

conditions which can only be remedied.

Shall Idaho's lumber industry be
forced into competition with the great

Shall Idaho sheepmen be forced in

SAYS BIG HATS ARE
DESTROYERS OF BEAUTY

LINDSBORG, Kas. Aug. S.-Do the
hats women wear rob them of theil
facial beauty?
Miss Anna Carlson, the bachelor girl
editor of the Lindsborg News, III in
dorsing Mrs. Emmons Blaine on the
present feminine headgear, declares
that the big hats worn by women be-
cause of the decree of Dame Fashion
are destroying the beauty of the wom-
en- of this generation.
Miss Carlson breaches against this
foolish custom, and she practices what
she breaches. She tells the women to
wear hats that are comfortable and
are becoming to them.
There would be vast number of
better-looking women on the streets of
our cities If they would adopt this
rule" she says.
Miss Carlson declares that the weight
of one of the monster hats which wom-
en- pin onto their heads will do more
than cause headaches. They will,
their weight, swayed to and
fro by the shifting winds, cause deep
burrows to appear in the clearest and
sweetest faces.
Following these, frowns and scowls
Will become a fixed habit, which the
cannot prevent, for headaches

Miss Carlson has attacked another
hobby of a scientist, who is advocating
he abolition of the kiss and substi-

hoses. Won't it be jolly to see |
women rub noses when bidding each I

This young woman, who is editing
lie of the brightest pages in Kansas,
axes the bold stand that the rubbing
f noses instead of kissing, will never
ecome popular, especially in Kansas.

HIGH LIVING COST
HITS THE SENATE

WASHINGTON, Aug. Son the
ground floor of the senate wing OF
the capitol is a restaurant, with two
special rooms reserved for the solons
and big dining room open to the
public. There are times when charges
for some items on the bill of fare
rise to the altitude of the high-priced
restaurants in New York-Delmonico
and Sherry, for instance.
There were smiles on the faces of
regulars among visitors wnen they
spied an item on the bill of fare
setting forth sweet corn, 25 cents" 1t
brought to their minds visions of daz-
cling and steaming cobs reposing on
a plate. They ordered corn and be-
held with considerable surprise the
serving of one lonely cob of very ordi-
nary dimensions for the quarter men
toned in the bill of fare. Next of the
