CRUISE ON MISSISSIPPI,

Crack 6attIeship and Gunboat ia
Make Trial Trip In May
WASHINGTON, March 3o.-As 'far
up as the spring deep water will per
INIT, the Mississippi river states are
to have an opportunity next May to
see one of the crack battleships of
the navy and gunboat, which. while
very small in comparison, has an en-.
viable record of honorable service in
all quarters OF the globe.
Acting Secretary Winthrop has or
dered the battleships New Hampshire
and Nebraska TO report at New Or
leans April 30 to participate in the
ceremonies in commend GRAFTON of the
Tooth anniversary of the admission Of
Louisiana to the Union. AT New Or
leans the vessel will be Joined by the
gunboat Petrol, which will pay a visit
to Mobile from April 6 to IS.
AT the conclusion of the annivers-
airy ceremonies the Nebraska will re-
join the Atlantic fleet, but the New
Hampshire and the Petrol will make
cruise up the Mississippi.
President Taft las declined an in
vitation to attend the Louisiana ami

that time would not permit his making
such a lon grip. He probably will
designate memebr of the cabinet to
represent him at the ceremonies.

NATIONAL GAME PROTECTION
Forty.three State Commissioners
Favor National Regulation

Favor national Regulation
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 80
Reports of the hearings held March
6 on the Weeks and Mclean bills for
Federal protection of migratory game
birds, show of this legislation. The
American Game Protective and Pro-
pagation, which secured the hearings,
announces that thirty six States were
put on record through their game
commissions as favOring Federal pro-
tection-this includes all but three
States which have game commissions.
Seven otter states Endorsed the move
ment through their state associations
or semi-official representatives. This
leaves only five states unheard from.
The Weeks bill is before the house
committee on agriculture, and the
Mclean bill is before the senate COM
mittee on Forest reservations and the
protection of game. Advices received
by the association from Washington
indicate that they will both be report
ed favorably. There was strong EVIL
dence presented at the hearings that
the whole country is aroused against
present conditions, and that it is
awakening to the need for federal
protection of migrants, which seldom

one state.

Texas ROAD
Will extend

SAN ANTONIO, Texas. March 3d.
Recognizing the importance to Sam
Aantonio, Uvalde & Gulf railroad
from Fowlerton into this city by way
of FIindes, Jourdanton and Pleasanton
instead of building directly east from
Fowlerton to Campbellton and coming
into San Aantonio from there, CON-
mittee of the the chamber OF CON-
meroe has been working hard to
bring about a change In the original
plans and finally has succeeded. This
means that the railroad will extend
between San Antonio and Fowlerton
along one side of a triangle instead
of along two sides. The direct line
to the coast, touching at either Cor
pus Christi or Arkansas Pass, will
make a junction with this road at a
point near Pleasanton. The changed
plans give San Antonio short and
direct hauk and competitive points,
in the event that an eastern connec-
ton is built to Campbellton will have
to be content with long, roundabout
route.

FARMERS THREsHlNG FLAX
Fields Caught Under Early Snow NoN
Yields The Stuff That Brings
the Coin

With the disappearance of the snow
hundreds of farmers are busy saving
their flax. Last November when the
snow came it caught the farmers with
thousands of acres Of fax which had
not been threshed, some of it was not
even cut, and in most of the fields
that were cut the fax lay on the
ground. A few warm days in the
early part of the winter helped some.
but snow coming on again put a stop
to threshing, and in an effort to save
the crop the farmers have already
begun threshing, 1t is probably TOO
late to cut the fields for the bolls will
shed the flax seed, with the running
of the binder through it, but that
which was cut can be for the most
part saved. The fields, of course,
can not be plowed until the flax is
cleared off, and it is apparent what
an amount of work must be crowded
in the early days of spring.

MUNSEY GIVES
TESTIMONY

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 3O-When
Frank A. Munsey, magazine publisher,
placed valuation of $78e, OO0. 900 on the
property OF the United States Steel
corporation in his article published
in an issue OF his magazine in 1908,
he did so after consulting with Off
Gals of the corporation and having
had access to their books.
Munsey made this declaration to-
day as witness before the Stanley
ste trust investigating committee.
In an article Munsey said the ore
holdings of the steel corporation were
worth 60 cents a ton. This figure is
based largely on the value of ore
leased by a corporation
from j. J. Hill.

LONDON, March 30-Mr. Waldorf
Aston, member of parliament for
Plymouth, the eldest son of Mr.. VIII.
liam Waldorf Astor, has made another
step forward in his political career,
which commenced only at the last
general election a year ago. He has
been appointed chairman of a COM
mittee to report upon the problem of
tuberculosis in the United Kingdom,
in its preventive, curative and other
aspects.
Mr.. Astor has made special study
of the subject and his first speech in
the house of commons was In sup
port of the governments insurance
bill, in which provision was made for
dealing with patients suffering from
tuberculosis.
Mr.. Lloyd George chancellor fof
the exchequer, who appointed Mr..
Astor, although a political opponent,
to the craftsmanship of the committee
had intended that the funds raised
under the act should be employee for
sanatoria; but many meical men are
absolutely opposed to sanatoria treat
ment, and it will be the work of the
committee to investigate and report
on the best way of using the money.
The mortality from tuberculosis has
steadily decreased in England and
Wales, being less than half what it
was in 1860. The death rate, however,
Is still very heavy, and in 1909 54.525
persons succumbed in England and
Wales. The diseases Is even more
deadly in Ireland, but there an active
campaign inaugurated by the Counties
of Aberdeen, has been going on for
some years and conditions are i'm
proving.

FIRST VISIT SINCE 1866

Washington After AZ Years.
WASHINGTON, March 30.-The
Second Baptist church, Fourth and
Virginia avenue southeast, was the
scene OF an unusual incident. When,
in 1865, the 117th New York regiment
was guarding Washington special
services were held in the building
then occupied by the church, located
on the site of the present building.
Among those who were baptized were
several soldiers of the nth New
York, one of whom was William H.
Clark. He had run away from home
and on account of being under age had
enlisted under an assumed NAME At
the close of the war he returned to
Pittsfield Mass, transferred tds mem.
bership to the First Baptist church
of that city, and hae been a member
there ever since.
A few days ago he came to Wash
ingt0n for the first time since '65, de-
string to visit the scenes Of his serv.
ice Ito his country, and also the church
where he became a Christian. He
was in the congregation last night.
The pastor, Rev. Hinson " Hewlett,
used az an illustration in his sermon
the soldier who had let Christ into
his Heart, and to whom, on t1at a)c-
count, the whiz of the buiets and the
beat Of the drum had henceforth q
different sound. In the a6ter-meeting
Mr.. Clark testified that he remem-

Of Commons by the danger to the
members shilling or ascent dinner.
There has been a great strain upon
the finances of the Kitchen Commit
tee of the house and Colonel Lock-
wood, it's chairman, threatenes to
make up the $4,000 deficit by raising
the price Of the dinner. Now that
each member Of the house is receiving
a salary of two thousand dollars a
year the legislators may be COM
PEELED to pay at least the actual cost
Of the dinners they consume.
Colonel Lockwood declares that the
receipts of the kitchen have not in
creased since the members began to
draw pay, but he intends to get some
of this money, even if it means the
upsetting of one Of the most cherished
perquisites of Parliament. The din

benefit of the Labor members, and
when the other commoners saw what
their Labor colleagues were getting
for their money they deserted the

The American government has been

Heretofore the residence of the Am

ALL BUSINESS BOOMING.

There is no lack of work in this country today. The mills in New England are shorthanded; the steel plants in Pennsylvania are short of labor; the harvests of the great west yearn and cry aloud for abundant reapers.-Springfield Republican.
 And construction men throughout the country find trouble in getting enough helpers. This certainly does not indicate that the country is dis satisfied, but does show that confidence exists fin the present administration backed by the belief that it will be continued
 In all these lines of business there is an excellent barometer of the ex- isting condition throughout the coun- try and in the steel business in par ticular. There is an increase of seven per cent, shown in the building busi- ness over last year and more struc- tural steel Is being used than ordinary conditions would call for This heal thy condition in the steel trade is shown also in other lines and the great fear is that raw material in the leath- CT line. for instance, will fall short before the orders can be filled This prosperity coming at a time when the presidential election is not four months on, coupled with the fact that the crops are large and wages never bet ter augurs well for the entire country.

THE POLITICAL REFoRMER

No one is so strong for reform as he who has been crossed in his meth cd of procedure and seeks vengeance. He will go to any limit to depict the terrible wrongs which others are com uniting though he may have inaug- .urated them himself He poses as the example of virtue and innocence in his rawlings against corruption and evil. though his apparent conversion Is simply to hoodwink the trusting public and temporarily by his stand, endeavor to draw them with him in his scheme for regaining the power ful position from which he has fallen. Things suddenly change their com plexion because the individual changes but hasty action often allows for long repentance
 This is the situation in the promo the corruption and methods used in the old. 4 Kansas man sizes up the situation well in these words The c. O. P. was right enough for the peo- ples rights and for Roosevelt while 1t mads him an office holder for over twenty years. during which it made him a member of the New Y Yor6 legis- lature, a police commissioner for New York City, a civil service commission CT, an assistant secretary of the navy, a colonel in the Spanish war. a gover- nor of New York a vice-p president of the United States and a president. But, forsooth, when the party refused him third term he had pledged him. self not to accept or ask for, all of a sudden the party became a veritable den of thieves and robbers, and he must needs bolt the party and seek still further preferment from another or third party. Certainly this is a unique sample of devotion to the 'peo- ple'"
 The methods which he now cries so copiously against are those which he used in getting into office
