BACK
AT VAN METRE
DECLARES HE DIDN'T RULE ON
PROGRESSIVE PARTY COL
UNIV AS IT WAS NEVER
DEMANDED.

Pierre, S. D.-Attorney General
Johnson takes the position that he
does not intend to be made the
goat" for the Bull Moose movement
in this state. In giving out the
"ticket" which has finally been Sc
lected by the Bull Moose organiza-
ton, Chairman Van Meter made the
following statement: The secretary
OF state through the advice of the
attorney general saw fit to refuse the
nominees OF the Huron convention
q separate party column, as is given
other parties and we decided to nom
mate all as independent progressive
candidates under the provisions Of
the present primary law"
Attorney General johnson in re-
gard to this, calls attention to the
letter accompanying the list of names
sent In by Chairman Van Metre, in
which he says at two different places,
not file. accept or reject the list
sent in, but return same and write
me as to what you have decided to
do"
In returning the correspondence to
the SECRETARY of state, the attorney
general says: "As neither this de-
partment nor your office has made
any statement, taken any action,
rendered any opinion, or refused to
file I'M papers presented by Mr.. Van
Meter or any of his associates. but
on the contrary the matter had been
submitted by you to this department,
In your letter of the 18th for. an op-
inion, it is clear that the interview
given to the press does not state the
facts. and that MIR. Van Meter does
not intend to file any caucus or con-
vention certifications of nomination.
For these reasons only a moot ques-
tlon OF inquiry for political effect is
presented. and this department there
fore will not render an opinion until
in good faith there is presented to
you for filing or rejection, either
certiication of nomination of the
caucus or convention or independent
petitions of nomination for independ-
n candidates and a legal question
thereby presented for determine
tion."

An experiment covering twenty years
to determine the value of post treat
ment was recently completed under
eastern conditions.
The conclusions reached are as. fol
lows:
iFirst-That charring the parts pfac-

durability.
Second.-Thnt filing in around the
post with stone or brickbats does not
Increase the durability. Z
IHird--That %creosnte is a better pre-.

I'onrth.-That brush treatment is not
nearly as effective as open ttnk treat

F%ifth.-rhat cheap woods. like cot

durable as the high priced cedar posts.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 2l.-
During the last two weeks Washing
ton has entertained an unusual num-
Der of distinguished guests, and many
OF the gatherings came to close this
week. One of the most important was
meeting of the regents Of the Smith
sonian Institute, Ex-vice President
Fairbanks being one Of tho regents in
attendance. Another was a meeting
Of the Carnegie Institute, at which
Mr.. Carnegie was present, going af-
terward to the White House Offices,
only to Nnd out that the president was
out playing golf. Still another was
the large Rivers and Harbors Con-
gress, which was one of the largest
and most interesting sessions Of the
organization that has ever been held
There was also meeting of the gov
ernors Of the twelve reserve banks to
discuss problems in connection with
the clearance of checks.

TO HLGAl BllL
Providing Money for Rivers and
Harb0rs Because New Pro-
iects Are Not Considered.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 81
Although the annual rivers and har-
'bors bill carries about $15, 00O,0
less than the estimates prepared by
the army board of engineers for wat
erway improvements throughout the
country, the appropriation seems to
have met with general approval except
in cases where congressman were
anxious to secure appropriations for
new work. President Wilson is quot
ed as saying that, although he would
like to get the rivers and harbors bill
to the lowest possible point, that he
would sanction the $34 900, 900 meas
ure recommended, of the House passed
it.
There is every Indication that there
will be strong effort on the part OF
several prominent members of the
House to prevent its passing. Several
Democratic members who do not ap-
prove of the policy of the House
Democrats in framing the bill with
out including new projects will ex-
press dissent and may join IN making
a minority report to the House. The
share of the Ohio river improvement,
in which West Virginia is particular
ly interested, allows for locks and
dams and continuing contract author
ization, $5,000,000; and for open
channel work, $6S4,000.

BIG FOREIGN TRADE
IN WINDOW GIL ASS
United States Manufacturers
Are to Have the Next
Twelve Months.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Dec. 21-Three
million boxes will possibly be the
amount Of foreign trade OF window
glass manufacturers Of this country
the next twelve months. The Glass
worker says of that trade:
Window glass exports from this
country during the next year will
probably amount to 100000 boxes,
according to the estimate made by. u
representative Of the American Win
dow Glass Company at the meeting of
the Western Jobbers in Chicago
Tuesday.
The American company early rec
ognized the immense effect on Amer
lean exports resulting from the Eu-
ropean war. and has given the SUBJ
ject the closest study from every
possible angle. That they should
make the OBSTINATE quoted is con-
sidered one Of the strongest possible
Endorsements of the views OF the
optimists in the glass trade.
The American company also an
nounced that there will be no reduc-
ltionsin prices for the export glass;
that every box sold abroad would
bring exactly the same price as those
disposed of in the domestic market.
This statement is significant and en-
lcouraging in the extreme.
While the total years exports may
not quite round out the 5000. 900
boxes estimated. the American COM
pany gives 100000 boxes as the
minimum number which will be sent
abroad.
to-,
IS per cent of the total annual do
nestle consumption, and the prophets
Of good times argue, and logically,
that there will thus be Just that much
additional glass for manufacturers
to sell in this country.
II is generally conceded that the
American Company will secure the
greater part. of the ensuing years ex-
port trade, but it is also known that
the Consolidated, Pittsburg Plate and
the johnson Brokerage Company
will participate largely in this for
eign business.
At Tuesdays Chicago meeting a
marked change in the temper Of the
jobbers was manifest. Until quite
recently the majority of jobbers. not
only in that section, but all over the
country, were apparently committed
TO the firm belief that the glass out
look for the year was in deplor-
able condition. This week. however.
these views were not only greatly
modified. but some most optimistic
forecasts we're heard.
Stocks are uniformly very low, and
as soon as the annual inventories are
made will naturally call for replen-
ishments.
No very pronounced buying is
looked for during the next couple OF
weeks, but this condition is entirely
normal at this time Of the yedr. No
b.eak in prices is anticipated.
