TARIFF CONFEREES
DEADLOCKED AGAIN;
REPORT is DELAYED
Three Important Matters
Are at Issue-Burlap
on the Free
List

Washington September 25-After An
shing up all but about a half dozen of
the points of difference between the Sem
ate and House, the tariff bill conferees
ran into another deadlock today and adj
journed tonight with the conference re-
matters were still at issue, the tariff
rates on cotton yarns and cotton cloths
and on lead and zinc ores, and the dates
when free raw wool and changes In the
wooen goods tariff should become ef-
fective
Members of the conference committee
could not predict tonight how soon an
agreement could be reached on these
items. With the aid of experts they spent
the afternoon going over the cotton
schedules end calculating the effect on
the woolen industry of the proposed
changes.
No Hope for Report Today
Both houses of Congress gave up hope
of a report from the conference commit
tee tomorrow, the ftouse adjourning until
Saturday and the Senate until Monday.
The report may go into the House Satur-
day.
There were rumors today of strong OPP
position to the report that might develop
in the House on the ground that the re.
publicans had not been taken into the
conference that worked out the details OF
the measure.
If such opposition appears it probably
would take the form of point of order,
against the report on the ground that 1t
contains matter inserted without author
ity by the conference committee. IN sew
eral instances the conferees have
changed provisions In such way that
some members of Congress declare that
new legislation has been added to the
lin.
No Delay in Action on Report
The conferees insist however, that they
have acted wholly within their authority,
and democratic leaders do not anticipate
any marked delay in action on the report.
The Senate confcrees won today their
fight against the anti-dumping clause.
which would have assessed an extra duty
against goods dumped into this ,couii-
try at reduced prices. The Senate agreed
to drop the amendment inserted in that
body requiring rectifers to pay for the
stamps used on pa ackages of distilled spir-
its filled by rectiflers or wholesale liquor
dealers.
The conferees agreed on 5000 as the
amount Of income that a single man shall
be free from the income tax.
For a married man the exemption will
be $4,000 with no further exemption for
children Only one exemption of $4,000
Will be allowed fer a family even though
the husband ard wife have separate in
comes visible. Isf
The conferees decided to put burlaps on
the free list; to leave grain bags on the
dutiable list and reduce the House rate
of 26 per cent on plain jute fabrics
| bleached to 10 per cent.

American flag. June IA, 17T-
136 years ago-congress declared
the national flag to be 13 stripes,
seven red and six white, with 13
stars in a circle on a field of blue.
George Washington, it is claimed,
submitted the design of the flag
to Betsy Ross at her home in
Philadelphia and it was upon her
suggestion that the stars were
made of five points as in France.

Hon. Wesley L. Jones has announced
himself a candidate for reelection to
the United States senate when his term
expires next year. Senator Jones has
certainly established an enviable repu-
Justly feel proud Of having SO able
representative in the senate from this
state. Senator Jones has been friend
Of the people in all his official acts and
has been Of great assistance to Stevens
county on any matters that have beon
for the welfare Of this county. He has
always received the hearty support of
the voters of Stevens county, and his
popularity is just as great as ever at
this time. Most Of the voters Of this
county have had the pleasure of meet
ing Senator Jones personally. as he is
a very approachable man and one of
the people. 1t Is conceded that Mr..
Jones has a brilliant future. and the
voters Of the state Of Washington will
no doubt return him to the senate with
practically unanimous support.
The above from the Statesman
Index last week shows that the
new ownership has at last defin-
itely decided to cast its political
fortunes with the stand-pat reac-
tionaries in the old republican
party.
Senator Jones is not unlike any
other man in having some good
qualities. But the qualities

Two important events in Stew
ems county last week were the an
nual meeting of the Washington
state grange, and the visit of
Governor Ernest Lister. Each
event brought to light matters
Of great import to the people of
this county.
The report of State Master Keg-
ley, and the resolutions adopted
by the state grange, showed that
the farmers of this state have
awakened to the necessity of sew
eral radical changes in national
and state laws. A demand for
the abolition of all tariffs on farm
machinery and farm products is
in line with the demand of the
nation last election, and in accord
with the work of the present
democratic congress, and it is ev-
ident that the old school politi-
clans and newspapers yet clamor-
ing for high tariffs will not re-
.ceive much support from the
farmers of this state.
The addresses made by Gov
ernor Lister in this county show
that this state has an executive
who believes in the common people
and in protecting their rights.
cutting taxation, and getting full
value for moneys expended.
A personal guaranty of the integ-
rity and ability of Governor Lis
ter was made to the state grange
by Master C. B. Kegley, and the
applause evoked by this an
nouncement showed that the
farmers realized the truth Of the
statement. The applause with
which the statements of the gov
ernor were greeted, showed that
the grangers appreciate the
course taken by the governor,
and are with him in his work.
People nowadays are looking for
men who can serve the people in
stead Of their own selves.
The grangers and the governor
are united in the belief that nom
partisan commission city and
county governments must come,
and perhaps in time a state gov
ernment modelled on the commits
sion plan.

No more booze on trains sun
less you carry it along with you.
For the railroads of this state
have decided not to sell alcoholic
drinks on trains any more. The
various communities over the
state which have adopted local
option are so intermingled with
those which have saloons that it
keeps from one to three brake
men busy on the train keeping
track of when the territory is
wet and when it is dry. To avoid
difficulty, all railroad trains will
hereafter be dry.

That our faults are seen by
visitors more quickly than by our
own residents was demonstrated
last week, when several grangers
wondered why our awnings were
so low. One granger thought it
was because we must have heavy
winds; he was quickly 'disillu-
stoned. It is a fact that Colville's
main business street would pre-
sent a more pleasing appearance
were all awnings placed at the
same height from the sidewalk:
our residents who regale them
selves with stovepipe hats would
not be troubled by the swinging
curtains, and the stepladder style
of millinery adornment would
have a chance for life were it to
come back to fashion again.

to be elected again to that body
from this state. But that makes
no difference to the Index, which
straddled the fence so actively
last campaign.
The Index shows its belief in
the kind of a man who voted to
retain Lorimer in the senate
after the bribery facts had been
made public. The Index shows
its belief in the kind of man
who supported the old gang rule
which finally killed the republi-
can party. The Index supports
the man whom the Spokane
Chronicle says will undoubtedly
be supported by former governor
Hay-and this will certainly ap-
peal to the grangers of this
county and state, who are lined
up practically solid against the
Hay kind of politics.
Whatever may happen to Jones
is in the future. but it is well that
the Index has at last shown its
hand, and in taking up the sup
port of the oldtime kind of pol
itics, that paper lets the people
know what may be expected from
it in supporting men in coming
campaigns.
W. H. Graham of the Colville
Implement Co., the only exclu-
sive implement house north of
Spokane, states that the average
cost price Of manufacture Of sew
eral makes of binders is less than
$50, the freight to this county
averages $33, and the average
retail price is $3.50. The tariff is
about $25 on binders.
But when the farmer pays $16O
for a binder, he does not pay
much profit to the retailer, the
great bulk of the difference be-
tween the $83 cost and the $16O
retail price going to the manu-
facturer, who is protected by the
SIS tariff, and by his patent
rights and by the modern pro
lection" system.
Under these circumstances, it is
no wonder that the Washington
state grange is in favor of re-
moving all duties from products
of protected industries, and it is
no wonder that the farmers of
this country are turning against
the politicians who favor pro-
tecting the interests" instead
Of the farmers.
The city council has issued a
call for bids for the construction
of a sewer system in the north
east residence district, to con-
meet with the present Main street
system. The estimated cost of
the proposed improvement is
$31, 900.
Fourteen blocks on First and
Second avenues, comprising two
improvement districts, are being
parked and graveled. An ave-
rage Of 160 yards of gravel per
day are being hauled onto these
streets from the city quarry; and
the city payroll for this work,
and the improvements on the
water system, amounts to more
than 500 per day.
