Washington Western Republican
senators who are in the confidence OF
the President are certain he Will veto
the wool bill, which was completed by
the adoption. 80 to 2S, OF the confer
ence report upon it in the Senate.
The fact that but six Insurgent SEN
ators joined with the Democrats in
support Of the bill. that 1t was opposed
by Senator Cummins and that Insurg-
ents Bourne, Nelson and Borah voted
against it, viii serve to strengthen the
Presidents determination to repeat
his action Of last year.
In the opinion OF Senators Smoot,
Warren. Guggenheim and other sena-
tors from wool-growing states, the bill
passed would not afford adequate pro-
lection to either growers or manufac-
turers in the wool business.
The iron and steel tariff bill re-
ceiyed the signatures OF Speaker Clark
and Acting President Bacon OF the
Senate, and went to President Taft.
This is the first of the tariff revis-
ion bills passed by the Democratic
Progressive alliance in the Senate to
reach the chief executive. and close
friends OF the President express ,he
conviction that he will veto II because
no investigation OF the industry has
been made by the tariff board.
An attempt by the conferees on the
excise tax bill to reach an agreement
was not successful. After session OF
more than an hour, the conference
committee adjourned.
An agreement reached by the Sen
ate and House conferces on the agri-
cultural appropriation bill retains in
the bill Senator Guggenheim's amend
ment, giving an increase OF $4,000 for
the investigation and eradication OF
insects affecting cereal and forage
crops. including the alfalfa weevil, the
total appropriation being $4,000. Also
his amendment giving an increase Of
$4,000 for the eradication of insects
injurious to truck crops and sugar
beets was passed The entire appro-
priation Is 10000 1t deyotes ten per
cent. OF the proceeds of sales and
rents from national forests OF 1912 to
public road construction in the forests.
Notice was served on the Senate
that under no circumstances would the
House agree to a continuation of the
tariff board. Provision for such con-
tinuation had been placed by the Sen
ate in a number of appropriation and
tariff measured, but to each amend
ment the House has presented an un-
yielding front Senate leaders were
notified that their insistence on that
provision would delay adjournment.
House conferees on all the bills con-
tanning the Senate amendment provid-
ing for the tariff board have been iu-
structed not to yield

Colorado. Factory Output s,so. 900 600.

Washington.--Colora prosperity
for 1912 will be shown not alone In
the record breaking yield OF her lands
and the s200.000,00e the farmers will
receive for that yield, but in increased
activity in almost every line of busi-
ness, and especially increased output
of factories.
Colorado's factory output. as shown
by the census bureau, was about $780,
o00, 900 in 1909. Last year was not an
exceptionally prosperous year for man

being 33 to 0. The lineup this year
looks good as the majority of the boys
are heavier than usual and they went
to Port Huron hoping to be oble to
play at least an even game. They
found however that while as team
they outweighed their antagonists a
little, the latter under efficient coach
ing more than made up for the differ
ence in team work and speed. In
straight football on the line Yale out
played Port Huron but in open foott all
which Port Huron seemed to delight
in, our boys were entirely unable to
meet them. Well, such is life! Here's
