need OF men who can analyze the SOIL who can
properly till the ground and know because OF the

COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS

The Cache county delegation were fairly well
taken care of by way of committee appointments
in the House of Representatives but according TO
the published list did not fare so well in the sen
ate.
Representative Carbon secured a place on the
committee on appropriations, a recognition that
was justly due him. where he can keep close tab
on the apportionment of the states funds and at
the same time look out for just amount for the
states institutions. Aside from this he was appoint.
ed member of the committee on banking capitol

commerce, and public printing. Some of these
are decorative, but all things considered Mr. Car

committees on agriculture highways and bridges
irrigation and reservoirs, penitentiary and prison.
state mental hospital, and state statistics, very
fine alignment giving an opportunity for Mr.. Ben.
son to do a great deal of good work during the
session.
Representative Oldham seems to have drawn
the low card. He landed a member of the COM
mitee on education, and industrial school, and was
then given places on census, joint resolutions,
olutions, and rules, all of which are purely decor
alive.
We do not wherein either of the represen.
tatves from Cache received an appointment as
chairman OF a committee, which comes great
surprise especially after the throwing down of the
speaker through combination of Insurgents and
Democrats.
In the senate for the first time in many years
and think since statehood, according to the
published reports, Cache county loses membership

that big county like Cache, the home OF the U.
A, c. should be entitled to a continuation of po
sition on this important committee, but somehow
Cache county's senator has failed to land.
Now that the committees appointed the

At Versailles

Versailles, Jan. 17.-Premier Ray

Premier George Slemenceau at the
opening today of the national con-
gress for the election of president,
NJ. Poincare at once appointed Aris-
tide BRAND, the minister of justice,
and l.. l.. Klotz, minister of finance,
to act as his seconds and to arrange
a duel.
The incident between Poincare and
Clemenceau arose out Of a letter sent
by the former premier to M. Poin-
care, the contents Of which were con
sidered offensive by NJ. Poincare,
The premier promptly sent his two
seconds to ask for an explanation,
and unless this should prove salts
factory, under the customs Of France,
the incident will result In a duel.
During the proceedings of the ma
tional assembly, George Clemenceau
made a satisfactory explanation to
M. BRAND and M Klotz, who had
been sent to him by Premier Poin-
care relative to the letter he receiv-
ed last evening from the ex-premier.
The incident is therefore considered
closed.

 AS WEAPON

HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. 7-The Progressive warfare against Senator Penrose promises to enliven the pro- ceedings of the Pennsylvania legisla= ture, which convened today. No stone will be left unturned by William Film. leader of the Progressives, to secure the passage of measures providing for the direct nomination of United States senators, so that he will have the means in hand to defeat Senator Pen rose when the latter seeks reelection in 1915.

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 7.-Driven to desperation by pain and inability to find surgeon to relieve him, Dr. w. M.

 The operation, however, failed to relieve him of a growth which is now threatening to destroy the jawbone, and another operation was performed today at hospital here.

 From the evidence of the states wit nesses, particularly that of the prose cutting witness, Miss Mariana Ramir ez, who stood the fire of vigorous ex- animation and cross-examination and reiterated over and over again that nothing of criminal nature had hap pened between herself and the defend ant, the weight of opinion in the court room was that an acquittal would re- suit, for it seemed beyond reason able doubt that the State had failed to prove the charge.

PECULIAR DEATH

Alexander Doten, the four-year-old son of Charles Doten, died this morn. ing at 9:30 under peculiar circum- stances.
 At 1 o'clock yesterday, the child, who had eaten a piece of ice coming from a small tin can, was taken vio- lently ill, having all the symptoms of poisoning, and it is supposed that lead in the can had poisoned the ice. Dr. E. B. Ketcherside was called, but too late to save the child, and it died, in terrible agony, this morning. It was calling for water, up to the last breath.
 The relatives have been notified and the funeral will probably take place tomorrow morning.
