Washington, Jan 19.-The presi-
dents presidential primary plan will
be presented in the house in the form
OF a definite bill Chairman Rucker
said today that the elections committee
would begin consideration of the bill
tomorrow but ne did not believe it
would be presented at the present ses
sion. He thinks the suffrage question
might be involved.
President Wilson's message on trust
reform which he will read to con-
gress Tuesday had received the fin
ishing touches Sunday.
The message will be the opening ut
terance by the administration on the
scope OF legislation it believes should
be enacted promptly not only to cor
rect those evils in modern business
generally deprecated by public opin-
ion, but to construct system of gov
ernment assistance that viii stimu-
late business enterprises and develop
ment. The president in pointing the
way to legislation on specific phases
Of the trust question intends to EN-
phasize the necessity for a friendly
spirit in approaching the task. He
wishes business men to be assured of
the administration intention to wei
come such suggestions and common
counsel and to afford those affected
ample time to adjust themselves to
new laws OF conditions. The presi-
dent opposed hearings on the tariff
and currency measures as he believed
congress and the country had made up
| its mind on the details and that hear
ings meant unnecessary delay, but
free criticism and expression Of opin-
ion on the trust program by all con-
cerned is desired by Mr.. Wilson. as
he thinks public hearings will facili-
tate the passage Of the bills.

Washington, Jan 1.-the president
today declared unfounded the reports
that business generally had suffered
through the operation Of the new tariff
law. He told callers that the contrary
was the case and insisted that smaller
business interests had greatly increas-
ed in trade since the tariff became
effective.
The president admitted certain in
dustries which are dependent on the
railroads for equipment orders had
suffered somewhat but he believed
that their business would increase
soon.
The president denied that he told
anyone that he favored permitting the
railroads to increase rates. He said
he did not want to embarrass the in
terstate commerce commission. which
is now investigating the proposed in.
crease, by expressing an opinion on
the subject.
Wilson explained that the admins
tration planned to facilitate the pro-
cesses Of accommodation in reconcil-
ing big business" to the anti-trust
laws rather than by processes Of le.
gal action.
He admitted that in most OF the adj
justment to date there had been tacit
violation OF the law but more Of spirit
than Of the letter, The attorney gen
eral will not attempt to abate laws
but will give corporations time to

Mr. List said that this problem was
one Of the most important questions
before the fruit growers OF the state
today. He said that most OF the or
chards in Colorado today were grown
on what for many years VA. desert
land that years and years OF boiling
sunlight had eaten out a great deal Of
the fertility. The cover crops wsrs
used to give back to the soil the "
tality which had besn taken away b,
the sun. For this reason some prefer
to call them shade crops from the fact
that they break to a certain extent
the heat OF the suns rays and protect
the soil from the devitalixinE process
Of the sun
Prof. List mentioned the fact that
Colorado fruit has practically only ono
ting with which II can compete with
eastern fruits. and that 10 quality. In
the east the growers have the advan-
tage Of cheaper lands. cheaper labor,
letter freight rates and shorter hauis

advantages Colorado fruit growers
must watch more cio-e'y the quality
and pack OF their apples. The pack Is
impossible II the quality II not there.
Colorado fruits have been proven
the best In qualify. but to maintain

large extent necessary.
Prof. List stated that at present
the cover crop Ia somewhat Of oues-
tion. He said that anything was bot

probably the most standard crop tn

Car.

The Southern Pacific has been
asked by the Progressive League
Of Opelousas and Postmaster
Goldman Lassalle to give Ope-
lousas a mail service on the mo-
tor car running between Morgan
City and Washington, and it is
expected that the railroad COM
pany will agree to the demands
of the local people.
The citizens of this city are Of
the opinion that the mail service
between this city and Lafayette
is very poor. There is but one
mail a day from and to Lafay-
ette and it is to be hoped that
this can be remedied.
A great portion of the local
mail goes through Lafayette, as
well as a great quantity received
in Opelousas is also routed
through Lafayette; the establish
ing Of two mails a day from
Washington to Morgan City
would greatly benefit the people
living on the Alexandria branch.
Mr.. Lassalle is confident that
the S. P. will render the peo-
ple the service asked and it will
not be long before there are two
daily mail services from Opulou-
sas to Lafayette.
