REST FOR TIRED SENATORS.

The senate is now getting its early au-
tumn vacations and. as far as the eld-
ers are concerned with Il feeling Of deep
satisfaction. Many of them have taken
it as a personal grievance that the pres
ident should keep them here all summer
long. From their viewpoint it was an
outrage. But a measure Of leisure is look
ed upon as essential to senator of the
United States. who attends to the duties
of his office with dignity and cOmpOsure
1t is frequent saying that the senate
is a continuous body. which holds true.
but not continuously working body if
senator's can help themselves.
And yet no mighty damage has been
done because Senators have had to stick
10 their tasks all summer long and NAV
have to stick TO them all the autumn
long. There has been personal inconven-
ience of course. but not a man Ofsthe 96
would have declined an election or Il re-
"lption. had it been stipulated in adj
vance that during this year of grace there
should ba an extra session running right
up to the regular session. Brains have
b en- tagged. to be sure, and tempers ruff
fled. Perhaps the senate has not work
ed with the expedition which would have
been possible with knowledge that. tar
iff done. school would let out.

TARIFF BILL TEDIOUS.

Mr.. Taft. it will be remembered had
almost an identical experience when he
rented the broad and beautiful place on

his family pass the summer there. He
thought congress would be expeditions
with tariff revision but congress. in eX-
ira session. proved not to be expeditions
and Mr. Taft felt lucky when he got
away from Washington in August and
he was lucky. Mr.. Taft got deal more
vacation after his extra session of CON
gresS in 1909 than Mr.. Wilson will t
with his extra session in 1913. But the
Wilson extra session is a double header
and that makes a difference Mr. Sen
aIOr and Mr.. Representative grumbIe
when the president gets him for an ex-
ira session. They have to work that
much more for the same salary. But
under this administration the grumbling
has been confined chiefly to the senate

BROOMST|CK VS..
AMMUNITION
CLEVER ATTEMPT AT SMUGGLING
CLEVERLY DETECTED BY Gus
TOMS INSPECTOR 10000 ROUNDS
CONCEALED IN LARD.
DRIVER OF CART SAID HE KNEW
NOTHING ABOUT THE TRICK
COULD NOT POINT HOUSE SHIP
MENT CAME FROM.

A clever attempt was made to violate
the neutrality laws yesterday afternoon
when a Mexican appeared on the Inter
national bridge with load of six ordin-
airy 50-pOund lard cans. every one of
which upon investigation was found to
contain ammunition, in all about ten
thousand rounds The ammunition was
packed in the bottom of the cans, and at
the top of each can there was IL layer of
about three inches of lard. Separating
the lard and ammunition were circular
sheets of tin. The cans and their con
tents were promptly confiscated and the
driver arrested;
Customs Inspector Robert II. Beck, who
was on duty ut the bridge, became suspi
ciOus when so many cans of lard were be-
ing taken across He peeped into each
can, and every one seemingly contained
only lard. However, not yet satisfied with
his inspection he went back into his office
and brought out broomstick. Taking
the business end in his haINl, he rammed
the stick into one of the cans of lard"
The stick went down only about three
inches, then a bucket was obtained the
lard was taken out of one OF the cans and
the inspector found. neatly packed, many
packages containing Winchester shells of
various sizes and denominations.
The manifesto was signed by one A.
Perez who is said to be a resident of
MatamOros. and the drivers name is
Santos Reyna. a cart driver who also re
sides in Matamor3s.
Along with the lard there were several
boxes of soap and other groceries. but
these were found to contain only the
goods allied for.
The driver. Reyna, claims that he knew
nothing IF the contents of the cans, He
said that he was hired to haul the load
of groceries" from hut in the outskirts
of Brownsville to a restaurant in Mata-
morOs When asked if he would take
customs inspector tD the house in
Brownsville. he said he did not know
where it is.
The lard cans had evidently been pur-
chased full Of lard and the lard emptied
from them Then the packing of the am
muntiOn began. all of which work it is
believed was done in some private house
in Brownsville. The compound was
cheap grade and whoever packed them
failed to place the gummed paper at
the top of the lard to protect it from
the tin as is usually done by the pack
cries.
II is believed that this is the first cf-
fort made here to smuggle ammunition to
Natamoros bv nutwitting the customs
inspectors stationed at the regular chan
nelS of exDOrtatiOn.
Mr.. Beck is being congratulated bv m I:
co-workers for his clever work in pre-
venting the attempted violation.

OPEN RIVER
IS ASSURED
LEWISTON To THE SEA
is NOW REALITY
Plans Will Be Carried Out During
1914 - $1,2OO,OOO Appropriation
Has Been Secured from Congress
for Opening of Navigation-CeIe-
bratiOn Is Planned.

Lewiston, Idaho, March 12.-(Spe.
clal.)-The hope of the people of the
northwest for half century will be
realized during the year 1914-an
open river from Lewiston to the sea-
ana making of this city in reality a
seaport connecting with the deep wa
ter ports of the world. The import
ant assurance is now given through
the success of Senator Bourne of Or
egon securing an amendment to the
rivers and harbors bill whereby the
| appropriation for the Cello canal
work has been increased from $780,
200 to $1,2O0,000. The house attach
| ed to the bill the first named sum
and the senate increased it to the
larger amount. On saturday night
the mouse and the senate conferees
held session and as a result the sem
ate amendments held the session ex-
tending to o'clock Sunday morning.
The senate had also amended the
house bill by increasing the amount
for the improvement of the Column
bia from Cello to the mouth of the
Snake from $4,000 to $4,000. The
sum the bill carries for Improvement
work on the Snake river during the
year is $25, 900, so the total sum to be
available in opening the rivers to
continuous navigation from Lewiston
to Portland is $1,2S5,O00.
There has already been expended
on the Cello canal over $3,00O,000
the recent policy of the government
being to make continuing appropria-
tions in sums adequate to keen the
work going along steadily. Friends
of the open river, conspicuous among
them being Senator Bourne of Ore
gon, secured data from the United
States engineers to the effect that II
the sum of $1,200,000 was allowed
the canal could be finished during
1914 and it was upon this showing
that congress has now taken favor
able action. The canal Is eight miles
In length, connecting Big Eddy above
The Dalles with Cello. Years ago
the government constructed locks that
afford passage through the Cascade
rapids Cello falls then remained
the only obstacle to through naviga-
ton, and northwest men have been
working for. years to secure that
which Is now to be realized.
AS the Panama canal Is to be op-
ened In 1915 the Cello canal can al
so be put in service at that time.
Boats of 400 tons burden can then
conveniently run from Portland and
deep water direct to Lewiston. Later
the Snake and upper columbia, un-
der the plans of the U. S. Engineers,
will be so improved that the great
waterway will accommodate craft of
500 to 900 tons burden.
Lewiston and this region have
special occasion to rejoice over the
securing of the $1,000, 900 appropria-
ton. Lewiston people can now pro-
ceed with enthusiasm to arrange for
the Columbia a-Celilo-Panama ceiepra-
tion IS to have assembled here during
the period of the important event at
least 20 river craft, these to make
the run from Portland, Astoria and
the upper Columbia points. The
Northwest Waterways association wifi
direct that feature of the celebration.
