GREGORY MAKES HIS FIRST REPORT AS ATTORNEY GENERAL Comprehensive Review of Work in His Depart
 ment Given in the
 Report
r 1o.-Attorney

Washington, December 1o.-Attorney Congress today as head of the department of justice He recommended several
 amendments to existing laws and gave ! a comprehensive review of the work of the department for the fiscal year. His
 principal recommendation was for an
 amendment to the commodities clause or the interstate commerce act designed to
 block the way of any common carrier
 which seeks to transport products over it's
 fires in which it has any interest what
 soever.
 In asking for such legislation the Att
 torney General referred to the difficulty
 the department has encountered in at tempting to break up what Is known as the "hard coal combination controlling
 large part of the anthracite fieIds in
 eastern Pennsylvania. He told Congress
 that railroads in that field have met re-
 cent supreme court decisions, interpreting the commodities clause, by the organiza-
 tion of corporations whose stock is dis
 tributed ratably among stockholders of
 the railroad, with its management domi-
 
 ration, he says, the railroad in question sells coal at the mines under contract which puts the new corporation largely, If not completely, within the power or the railroad" This plan has been chal- lenged by the government.
 q recommend" wrote MT. Gregory, "an amendment which will prohibit railroad from transporting in interstate commerce articles which it manufactured or pro- duced, or which were manufactured or
 produced by any corporation controlled by it or affiliated with it by having the same controlling stockholders, irrespective of whether such railroad or such con- trolled affiliated corporation has an in- terest in the articles at the time of transportation. It is also necessary if transportation and production are to be completely divorced. that Congress pro- hibit any railroad owned or controlled by a producing or trading corporation and
 not operated merely as a plant facil- ity, from transporting in interstate com
 merce articles produced or owned by such corporation
 Other recommendations include: An amendment making it federal crime" to kill an officer of the United States en- gagged in serving or executing process, and authority for the use of search warrants 1 in advertising fraud cases which rely on I the mails to attract victims.

WARBURT0N
ENTERS RACE
Former Congressman An
nounces Himself a Bull
Moose Candidate
GIVES OUT PLATFORM
Credits Democratic Party for
Tariff and Currency Laws
and Alaska Bill

TACOMA, Aug. 6.-Making a bid
for democratic sstes by speaking
kindly of the democratic administra-
ton, Stanton Warburotn, who served
one term in the national house of
representatives and who was defeated
in 1912 by Congressman Albert john
son, filed a formal statement yester-
day announcing his candidacy for con-
gress from the third district on the
bull moose ticket. His statement IN
part follows:
"I believe in the national progress
sive platform adopted at Chicago, and
it would be my duty and aim, to the
best of my ability, to assist in en-
acting into law all the promises there
in made, and among these, of par
ticular Importance, is the creation of
a non-partisan tariff commission with
full power to investigate the relative
difference in the cost of production
abroad and at home, and whose duty
it will be to report to either house
of congress and the President, their
conclusions in the matter.
"Also the enactment of law in
the different states and the nation.
as far as may be possible under our
national constitution, prohibiting
child labor; the prohibition by law
from interstate commerce of convict
made goods and prohibiting the man.
ufacture of convict made goods in
the penal institutions of the United
States for other than government cor.
sumption; the enactment of nation
al workmen's compensation law; the
enactment of law for the cOnstruc-
ton of a national system of high
ways; a law providing for an eight
hour day in continuous "a hour in
dustries. I also believe in the crea-
ton of strong interstate trades
commission, giving such commission
authority to regulate great interstate
industries.
II believe that the democratic
party is entitled to full credit for
their constructive work in passing
the currency bill, the Alaska railroad
bill and the income tax law. These
are all measures of great importance
and along right lines. 1t may be-
and probably will be-, necessary in
the future to make necessary amend
ments to the currency law, but it is
step in the right direction, and
whenever found wanting in any re
spect, can be amended.
II believe that the tariff law pass
ed by the democratci party is incom
paratively better than the Payne-Al
drich bill. Especially is this true o
the steel schedule, the cotton sched
ule, the sugar schedule and the WOO
schedule, which are by far the mos
important schedules in the tariff bill
When the law goes into effect final

There is a wide gulf between love-
illness and lovability," says Miss Flea
nor Montell, who enacts the role of
June in 1.-THE Trail of the Lonesome
Pine" which opens at the Opera
House, Friday, Dec. IL.
Il find this most marked in the
character of June, the wild mountain
girl, whom I portray. l perhaps have
lent a shade of lovability to June,
though her character, romantic as
it is, is never unlovely. The seeker
after amiability in the desert of world
ly care, finds the two qualities linked
in some one who has inherited the
virtues of healthy, clean-minded pro-
genitors. June is surrounded from
the cradle up to the time she goes to
school in the Gap, with natural free
dom that lends to her character a
breeziness that is as lovely as the
flowers among which she roams
abroad. Her primitiveness has a
charm that appeals to the scholarly
engineer, and you know to have all the
qualities that attract love, and at the
same time have the quality Of being
lovely, is wealth indeed. 1t is the best
gift the gods can bestow on mortal
especially maid in her teens-it is
honeysuckle of young life, the ever
blossoming tendril which deep-rooted
in reverence for life itself, entwined
delicately, yet firmly, around the per-
sonality, SO richly endowed, and draws
the sunshine of hope into a nimbus of
content, that makes of the world a
paradise.
ITO go forth and find any one dis
tinctive character SO endowed, is a
task that is difficult. Through the halls
of fashion the seeker may wonder in
open-eyed amazement at the girls of
high degree, who congregate there.
Many are beautiful, many are pretty,
many inviting, many delightful, a few
may be called lovely, in the hasty
