NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Not Good For Peach Trees.

Stable manure alone Is not the best
plant food for a thrifty peach orchard
The manure contains too large a pro-
portion Of nitrogen. The effect Of this
is to drive the trees to wood growth
rather than to fruit. Apple and plum
trees can stand this sort Of feeding far
better than peach. the latter being
more delicate and more inclined to
make wood.--Rural New Yorker.

TAFT SUGGESTS
ALASKAN ROUTES
President in Report to Congress Will
Point Out Ways For Railroads
In Alaska.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 5.--The
Alaska railway commission has re-
ported to President Taft that more than
one extensive railway will be needed
properly to open up Alaska's re-
sources.
The report, which the president will
send to congress with recommenda-
tions, says there are several available
railroad routes from the coast into the
far interior of Alaska. No definite
recommendations are made as to the
choice of routes. The report declares
that the route up the Susitna valley
passing near the rich Matanuska coal
fields, on up through good agricultural
land to the Neenana Ignite fields and
on to, Fairbanks in central Alaska with
it's gold, silver and other wealth, could
not develop the resources Of the Cop
per river valley. .. d..
The route from Cordova in the ia
nous Controller bay region up the
Cooper and Tanana river basins to
Fairbanks, would be near the Bering
coal fields, which could be opened up
by the Luilding of branch line, then
would go north through rich copper
country and on to central Alaska.
Another possible route would run from
near Juneau in the southern part of
the peninsula cross Canadian territory
north of the st. Elias mountain range
and thence up the Tanana river val
ley to Fairbanks. -.-a

CRUDE OIL HAS
REACHED GOAL
Pennsylvania Touches the Coveted
Price Of $3.50 Per Barrel
Brokers Take Action.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Feb. 5.-For the first
time in almost twenty years, the oil
purchasing agencies today quoted $3.50
for Pennsylvania crude. This was an
advance over the close Of yesterday
OF three cents barrel and was taken
as additional evidence that the avail
able supply Of this particular grade Of
crude had fallen far below the require
ments of the refineries.
The sensational rise in crude oils has
so Unsettled the market for the Sc
curities of oil companies that a num-
ber of brokers announced today that
no such securities would be longer
carried on margins, which virtually
places all trading in them on cash
basis.

Prince KatSura CenSured
by japanese Diet Today;
Police Protect ShinladO

Toxic, Feb. 5.---Most exciting scenes
were witnessed during the dispersal
Of the Japanese diet today after vote
Of censure on the government under
Prince Katsura had been carried. The
exits from the chamber were thronged
with people who cheered the members
of the constitutional party when they
assaulted Saburo Shimada and other
so-called renegades of the national
liberal party. They were thrown out
Of their rikshas when they attempted
to drive away, but efforts to duck
them in the canal were frustrated by
the police.
It is expected that Prince Katsura
will Immediately dissolve the diet and
call for general election, meanwhile
retaining Office. 4
The order suspending the session
was issued by the emperor himself. 1t
was read to the house after a debate
which had been very noisy and had
continued for two hours.
The resolution expressing lack Of
confidence in the cabinet was intro
duced by Yukio OZaki, former mayor
Of Toxic, and leader of the constitu-
tional party.

ELECTRIC IRON
USED FOR COOKING
Failure Of Gas Supply Causes Nevada
Housewives to Adopt More
Modern Methods.

Nevada, Feb. 5.-Making coffee and
cooki-.g breakfast on an electric fiat
iron Is an innovation which has been
in use by Nevada people during the
past few days. Necessity was the
mother of the invention but it serves
the purpose admirably. With no other
means of cooking in the house Nevada
housewives have been making soups,
warming up canned goods and even
broiling steaks on the electric iron. All
of this arose from the failure of the
Iowa Pubic Service Co., to furnish
gas to Nevada consumers owing to a
break in the pipe line between this
city and the plant at Ames.

He spoke eloquently, making a bit.
ter attack on Katsura, whom he charg.
ed with ignoring the constitution and
riding rough shod over the wishes Of
the people.
Prince Katsura's reply was brief,
He pointed out that he had accepted
the premiership at the command OF the
emperor and he offered precedents for
the course he had pursued.
The attitude Of the opposition is
very determined and the only outlet
from the present deadlock appears to
be the selection of a new diet and a
redistribution Of the parties.
The finance minister in the course
of today's sitting explained the items
of the budget. He said the government
recognized the expedience of readjust-
ing the national finances, economizing
the nations general expenditure and
preparing for the present some of the
undertakings planned. Every en-
couragement, he said would be given
to industrial enterprises. Industrial
and financial conditions he declared,
were encouraging, the foreig trade Of
Japan having increased during the last
year by $92,00O,000.

SECOND DAY OF

Witnesses Told of Finding

Woman After Assault on
Lawn; Crowds Attend.

Aiken, S. c., Feb. 5.-When the
trial Of Frederick O. Beach of New
York, charged with attacking his wife
with murderous intent" was resumed
here today counsel for each side were
confident the case would go to the jury
before evening.
Only minor witnesses remained to
be heard before the state concluded
presentation of evidence in its cir
cumstantial case against the million
aire. Indications when court conven-
ed were that the defense would intro
duce only two witnesses in addition to
Mrs. Beach. Whether the defendant
would testify was still in doubt.
None of the witnesses who testified
during the first days proceedings
was able to describe the assault on
Mrs. Beach. Every effort of the prose-
cution seemed directed at picking
flaws in Beach's story. No effort, it
was made to substantiate the
prosecutions contention that Beach
attacked his wife after he had failed
to overtake a mysterious man in

Court Room Crowded.

Beach and his wife arrived early, &C
companied by Mrs. Taylor and Miss

evidence Of a struggle in the side yard.
He said he was with the chief of po.

and the blood stained fence picket.
He said one OF the ear rings was
mashed. He expressed the opinion
they were paste and worth about 81.
On cross examination the witness
said he thought a blow from the fence

the ear rings from her ears.
But 1t would not knock out the ear

SINGLE TERM IS
A TOPIC AMONG
POLITICIANS
Cummins and Works the
Only Progressives Voting
for Bill; Kenyon Voted
Against 1t.
tBY e. H. HANSON.1

Washington, D.. c., Feb 5.-There
Iare still many conflicting opinions In
Washington as to the effect of the pas
sage of senate joint resolution 7S on
Saturday limiting the presidency to
one term of six years. @
First, it Is conceded that the. mea.
sure will receive the necessary two
thirds in the house, putting it up to the
people;
Second. although fathered by pro-
gressive republican Senator Works OF
California, the entire strength of the
progressive republicans in the senate
with the exception Of Senator Works
and Senator Cummins, who led the
fight for it on the floor, was thrown
known what success it will have be-
fore the various state legislatures;
Third, 1t will not affect persons who
have held the Office Of president be-
fore the time of its adoption as a con-
|stitutional amendment, but it will like
ly have great moral effect upon them.
Fourth, among the democrats. the
Clark supporters in the recent nomina-
ton fight are most enthusiastic for It,
while among the republicans the
standpatters, or anti-ROosevelt men,
are most enthusiastic. r.
Fifth, if the house passes it, will
Wilson announce that he will be salts
fled with one term or will he seek
another nomination four years from
now and likely be elected for a. six
year term, giving him ten years In the
white house? ~
Were Opposed in Fight.
Opinions and speculations are as
many as there are men in Washington.
But the most significant thing about
it's passage from an Iowa standpoint Is
that Senator Cummins worked his
hardest for it and Senator Kenyon
worked against it. &E
Many are inclined to believe that
these two are about to reach the part
ing Of the ways While there has
been no open break between them,
and but few outward signs Of differ
ence. it is recognized that Kenyon has
little regard for seniority and just
because Cummjns happened to be
elected to the senate before him is no
reason in his mind why he should al.
ways follow in the others train.
Progressive republicans in the house
oppose it. but as yet with one or two
exceptions refuse to talk for publica-
ton. Stendpat republicans. many of
whom fell by the wayside because of
the third party movement, will support
It almost to man. in the hopes of get.
ting it through this session, before they
quit Washington.
While the resolution is not retroac.
tive, if tie states adopt it Immediately
after its passage by congress. it is
doubtful if Roosevelt, Taft or Wilson
would have the temerity to run again
in 1916. Temerity is the proper name
for such an action if the country
speaks overwhelmingly in favor of
but one term.
Clark For One Term.
Speaker Clark came out with a
statement Immediately after it's pas
sage, saying he had long favored 1t.

PREP AIRING A
SUBSTITUTE ACT
Des Moines Man Repre-
senting State Manufac-
turers, Proposes Bil4@to
Cover Liability in Iowa.
[BY ORA WILLIAMS

.
Des Moines, Feb. 5.-The Wright
man bill for substitute for the work
mems compensation act proposed by
the state commission appointed by
authority OF the legislature to con
slider the subject and report bill and
a system, is ready for printing, and II
will be one of the most bulky bills
the state printer is called upon to
print. The original copy makes
seventy typewriter pages, and it is
a complicated affair, differing in
many respects from the commission
bill recommended for adoption.
In the commission bill the com
pensation for death to an employe is
fixed at the limit of $4,000; in the
Wrightman bill it is fixed at $4,000,
the high sum being regarded as pro-
hibitive.
The commission bill applies in all
industries where five or more persons
are employed, and this might include
very few large farmers; the Wright.
man bill specifically exempts all farm.
ers from the operation Of the law.
Reduces Compensation.
There is difference also in the
amount of compensation to a work
man laid off for temporary injuries,
the Wrightman bill fixing SO per cent
of the mans wage as proper, while the
other bill fixes higher sum.
The commission bill contemplates a
form of compensation which may be
made up either by contributing to the
state funds or by connection with an
Insurance company; while the other
bill looks chiefly to private insurance
companies to recoup the employer, the
charge for death or injury being
against the employer directly.
In behalf of the smaller sums al
lowed for death and injuries in the
Wrightman bill it is claimed that at
the present time the entire burden
for industrial accidents is upon the
employees and they stand for 1t, with
only such small shifting of the burden
as comes through the courts; that 1t
is shown that 80 per cent of all acci-
dents are due wholly to the employe
and he should be held responsible In
fact: that to shift the entire burden
from the employe to the employer

pensation low enough, the employers
will be able to comply with the law
and still continue doing business; but
otherwise many would be driven out

Hearing on School Bill.
The committee on schools gave a
hearing yesterday afternoon on the
