Jim JAM jEMS TRIAL AGAIN
Defense Tries to Have Whole Art''
Giles Offered, instead OF Words
or Phrases.

Bismarck, ~ d.. June 27.-The ef-
forts of attorneys for the defense in
the case of the government versus
the publishers Of Jim Jam Je1ns,
charged with sending alleged obscene
matter through Interstate con- merce
routes, was directed toward forcing
the prosecution to offer as evidence
the entire articles alleged to have
been obscene and not some few words
or phrases.
AS often as an objection was made
to the introduction of parts of books
or articles, Judge Willard overruled
the objection and the attorneys for
the defense took exception. Minneap-
oils ana ST. Paul dealers were on the
stand and testified tn having received
shipments of the publication through
express companies.
Postoftlce inspectors from Chicago
testified to having prepared and
sprung a trap IN order to catch pub.

JIM JAM JEMs SENTENCES
TWO YEARS, $4,000 FINES AND
HALE COSTS FOR TWO.
Courtroom Crowd Clasps in Astonisk,
ment When Judge Pro-
nounces Punishment.

Bismarck, N. D., June 28.-The
Jury in the Jim Jam Jems case has
returned a verdict finding Sam H.
Clark, editor, and Clarence Crockard,
business manager of the magazine,
guilty on two counts of the nine in
dictments.
The attorney for the defense asked
for a new trial on errors of pleading
and in the charge to the jury, but
this was denied and sentence passed.
Each of the defendants was SEN
fenced to serve two years in the
Leavenworth federal prison, pay fines
of $4,000, and half the costs of pros
ecution. Appeal will probably be
taken to a higher court.
A gasp of establishment went out
from those who had gathered in the
court room when the jury returned a
verdict of guilty and when sentence
was passed there was murmur of
astonishment. There were few who
attended the trial who thought there
would be anything more severe COM
ing to the defendants than dis
agreement, and the possibility of a
conviction on any of the counts had
not been thought of.
The sentence of the court that the
defendants serve time in Leaven.
worth was made in spite of a rec
ommendation of the jury that a Jail
sentence be not imposed.

TARIFF BIG STICK
IS THE SUGGESTION
GEORGIAN URGES COUNTERVAlL-
ING RATES POWER FOR
PRESIDENT.
WAY OF CHASTISING NATIONS
Would Apply When Country Refused
Reciprocal DeaIings-Defense
Against Possible Dis
elimination.

Washington, June 28.-Urgent de-
sire to arm the president with a tar
if big STICK one of stronger and
greater proportions than provided in
the amendment suggested by the
finance committee majority, develop
ed in the Democratic caucus of the
senate on the tariff bill.
Discussion of the proposed counter
vailing duty on wheat and flour which
the committee recommended, led to
general debate on retaliatory and
countervailing tariff rates, and Sen
ator Hoke Smith of Georgia urgently
proposed the adoption of an amend
ment that would give the president
power to enforce countervailing tariff
rates on all commodities of commerce
against any nation refusing to deal
with the United States on reciprocal
tariff basis.
- A Broad Provision.
The amendment proposed would in
many respects take the place of the
maximum and minimum clause of the
Payne-Aldrich law, but Senator Smith
advocated provision that would be
broader than that. one that would give
the president the authority at any
time to interpret to any nation which
may discriminate against the prod
ucts of the United States the same
tariff rates exacted on American
goods. Such a, clause in the tariff
BILL it was argued, would place the
United States in a position to defend
the country against any unreciprocal
action or attempt to shut off it's for,
eign trade.
No Vote Vet.
No vote was taken on countervailing
duties as to wheat or flour or as to a
general amendment. Resolutions were
adopted to have daily caucus consider
ations of the bill and by this means it
is hoped to get the. measure before
the senate next week.
The amendment recommended blythe
committee is not countervailing
proposition in strict sense, providing
that the president should proclaim Ger
tain fixed rates against foreign nations
in limited number of specified cases
of discrimination against this country.
This Senator Smith and others did not
ragard as comprehensive enough.
After the battle over free sugar and

Washington, June 27.-Free sugar
In 1916 and free raw wool are now
established in the tariff revision bill,
having been approved by the Demo-
cratic caucus of the senate after u
two-days' fight.
Neither is Changed.
The sugar schedule, as reported by
the majority members Of the finance
committee and practically as it passed
the house, was approved by a vote OF
40 to 6. Free raw wool, as submitted
by the majority and just as 1t passed
the house, swept the senate caucus
by a vute Of Al to +.
This ratification of President Will
sons tariff policy, he having insisted
upon the wool and sugar propositions
before the ways and means commit
tee in the beginning, came after
long series of developments since the
tariff bill passed the house in which
the president has been an active par
ticipant. When the fight OF the anti.
free sugar and anti-free wool Demo
Gratis was getting hot, the president
issued public statement declaring
that any suggestion OF compromise
on his wool and sugar schedule IDEAS
was absolutely. out Ut the question
and later he stirred all administrator
leaders to action when he made his
charge about the existence III Wash'
ington Of an "insidious lobby" lnves'
