Washington, May THE over
rFhelming Democratic majority in the
House Tuesday swept through the free
list, bowled over all opposition to free
wool, free meats and other necessities,
and passed on to consideration of the
Observation-Disclosures income tax fea-
ture of the Underwood tariff bill. Not
a dent was made in the bill as approx
ed by the ways and means committee
majority. 1t was expected the measure
would be passed unamended by the
House today.
All day there was sparring across
the aisle dividing the Democrats and
the Republicans. Many amendments
were offered by Republicans in a for
lorn effert to put many free-listed ar
ticles back on the dutiable list, but all
were voted down with a regularity
that brought smiles from the minority.
Finally, when the last of these propos-
ed changes had been rejected, Repre-
sentative Payne precipitated a lively
rules tight by offering a brand new
amendment to create a tariff commits
sion.

DEFENDANTS ATTORNEYS AN
NouNcE PLEA WILL BE MADE
CAUSES SURPRISE.
is ON TRIAL FOR MURDER
Of Monnle Watson, Who Was Shot
Down at Raymond, Last september.
Eye Witnesses Testify at to Shoot
ins-Victim Begged for Life.

Yazoo City, Miss, May 7.-Tempor-
ary insanity will be the plea of the
defense in the case of Lewis Dennis,
charged with the murder Of Monnie
Watson in Raymond last September.
This announcement by the Attorn-
eys for the defense when the state
rested at $50 o'clock Tuesday after
noon came as surprise to the specta-
tors who had followed the testimony
introduced by the state during the
days session Of the court.
The only witness examined by the
state were eyewitnesses to the trag-
,edy and the engineer who made the
drawing of the scene Of the tragedy.
S. R. Fortenberry and Halbert De-
cell, who were clerks in the Raymond
drug store on Sept. IA, when the kill
ing occurred, told of how Lewis Dem
mis- and Percy Dennis entered the store
and encountered Watson, who was
making a purchase of some medicine
for sick sister. Watson was In his
shirt sleeves and was unarmed.
The witnesses testified that the Dem
mis- brothers drew their pistols as they
entered and that Lewis said:
Come on" applying an epithet. "we
are going to kill you"
Watson began to beg and Percy
said Lets take him out of here"
They carried him about sixty feet
across the street, according to the tes-
timony, when Watson attempted to
"bolt". Lewis struck him in the right
temple with his pistol, and as Watson
was falling shot him through tht right
side. After he had fallen a second
shot was fred, which penetrated the
heart
o. J. Franklin, manager of the Cum
berland Telephone Company in Ray
mond, heard Watson say as the party
was crossing: 81 can't go with you,
boys" To this Lewis Dennis replied:
''You will go with us or go to hell"
These remarks were repeated sew
eral times, but the witness could not
tell where the Dennis brothers wanted
to go.
He knew none of the party except
by sight and was ignorant Of the re-
lations which existed between them.
At o'clock the state rested.
Attorney ]. F. Barbour asked per-
mission to state to the jury what the
defense in the case would be. The
state objected on the grounds that 1t
was not according to procedure in this
state. The objection was sustained,
and Mr.. Barbour asked that the jury
retire temporarily.
After they had left the room Mr..
: Barbour stated to the court that the
: defense would plead temporary insan'
ity, and again asked permission to
state this to the jury. The state again
t objected and was sustained.
: Miss Lucille Dennis, 17-year-old sis
5 ter Of the defendant, has not yet beer
. put on the stand.

Smash Goes Summer When
West Wind Comes Over
Mountains Last Evening

The Press owes an apology to its
readers. 1t predicted that the west
wind would rise at 3:45 Sunday after
noon, or something to about that ef-
feet, and it did not come until about 9
o'clock that evening, proving this jouc-
nal to have been inaccurate to the ex-
tent of several hours.
1t was not violent wind by any
means. And it crept on so gently that
no one whew when it ceased to sigh lika
a lover and became wind in fact. But
sometime in the night it reached di-
mensions that played like the bones Of
a negro minstrel on every loose door
and window in the valley, and it did
not quit when daylight came, but a
streak of ozone and other things con-
tinued to come pouring over the noun

Call Meeting Of
Stockholders

The Simons Brick Company, operat-
ing at Ell Centre and farming a large
tract of land east Of Heber, through
its local manager, A. D. johnson Of
Ell Centre, is issuing a printed call foc
meeting of Imperial Water Com
pany No. 1 stockholders to consider
propositions pertaining to the opera
tion of the company's canals.
The call follows:
Los Angeles, Cal, Sept. II, 1918.
ITO the Stockholders and Users Of
Water Company No. 1.
Dear Sir: After careful study of
our water system we believe it will be
of great advantage to the users of
water in this district to meet fro.n
time to time, to study and discuss ex-
isting conditions. The water system
as you know, we own jointly, and if
the existing rights we have to this
water can be more permanently estaL-
lished and our service improved and
cheapened through discussion and
careful study, it should be to our fl
nancial gain. Therefore we wish to
make the following suggestions TO-
wit: That meeting be called not
later than October Goth, to be compos
ed of stockholders and users Of water,
to form permanent organization that
will hold frequent meetings at acces-
sible and convenient points in our dis
trict where free discussion can be had
and recommendations made for better
protection of our rights, and a more
adequate service.
IF this meets with your approval,
detach and sign attached form, and
mail to Simons Brick Company, 125
West Third ST., Los Angeles, Cal,
stating number Of shares owned by
you, and any other suggestion or re-
marks you desire, and if sufficient
number of stockholders or water users
agree to attend we will call the first
meeting with a purpose Of organizing
water users league, and you are es-
pecially requested to solicit yo"r
neighbors to attend this meeting.
"SIMONS BRICK COMPANY,
Joseph Simons, President; c. H. and
O. B. Fuller"

the above:

Farmers Advertising

In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside, the national farm paper pub
lished at Springfield, Ohio. Nat T.
Frame, a government employe who
has large orchards and superintends
them himself, writes about the value
of advertising to farmers. He says in
part:
Advertise, advertisement, adver-
tisements, advertising campaigns and
advertising bills-magic words. And
even we farmers are catching on. Did
not Jack Pickering Ross hit the nail
on the head recently when he told the
sheepmen not to sell their flocks, but
to advertise their mutton? People do
not eat mutton because they do not
know how good it is when bred right,
fed right, butchered right snd cooked
right. Some keen organization of
sheepmen is going to show number
of these people who are at present
non-consumers of neither lamb, ram,
sheep or mutton how short-sighted
they are, and by so doing will create
a more active demand for their specia
product.
$50, too, we may expect to see the
day when even the young clerk who
is beginning life at the lunch counter
will put up a kick if his buckwheat
cakes are not cooked from pure buck
wheat -four and his maple syrup did
not come from sugar-maple sap. That
is, if the buckwheat growers and mill
ers and the maple-grove owners catch
on to the value of advertising as early
as we think they will.
''If we apple-growers do not soon
formulate and put into execution some
comprehensive advertising scheme to
reach the present non-consumers OF
apples we may not be able to sell our
crops proftably."

WOman's Suffrage in Paris

VOAsAoA oSC Au L al 10
PARIS, France, Sept. 22-The mC-
nicipal council of Paris has requested
that discussion should take place
in the chamber on the favorable re-
port on woman's suffrage drawn up
by M. Ferdinand Buisson. The ques-
tion Of granting the vote to women
having thus been brought to the front
as topic of interest to the general
public, the Matin has invited it's
readers to give their opinion on the
subject.
The Duchess Won Uzes is strong
feminist and considers it matter of
equity that women should be given
the vote. The same conviction is held
by Nine. de Fauquelin, the president
of the French Needlework association.
Nine. Helen Miropolsky, the farl-
Gus woman barrister, is ardently in
favor Of woman's suffrage. She points
to the one-sided verdict given by
juries from which women have un-
justly been excluded.
Nile. Dutrieu, however, the woman
aviator who has won for herself a
high reputation in her art, is not 4
supporter of the woman's movement.
