Louis Vetting was granted a patent on
a quarter section of land in the Marble
creek district. Vetting went into the
district early in 1901, and after filing

authorities, the state claiming the
land. The matter has been fought out
in the courts and through the land
office, Vetting finally winning.
James Haight, a pioneer on the
North Fork, has built a suspension
bridge across the river for the accom-
mediation of the neighbors, Haight
bearing the expense himself. The
bridge is suspended on six cables, these
supporting the flooring of two-inch
plank. The bridge will support teams,
but Haight has given notice that au-
tomobiles will not be allowed to use it,
as the test might be too great. There
are few bridges across the river be
tween the mouth of the Little Nortf
Fork and Prichard.

Seattle-Butter is so plentiful that
prominent jobbers predict that the
market will not move in either direc-
tion for at least a month. The public
purse is not favorable, it is asserted,
to any fancy prices at this time, and
so greater caution is being observed in
increasing the cost of the staple.
Dealers declare frankly that the people
will not pay any more for butter thar
they are doing at present.
Excessive insurance and exchange
rates, it is expected, will bar New
England imports as long as the wal
continues, and the end of the conflict
is now so remote that jobbers have
practically abandoned any hope o.
bringing in the foreign product. There
is no incentive to do so at this time
since there is plenty of storage butter
and Washington creamery frsts arr
being turned out at greater rate thar
the trade can absorb.

OWN people have exhibited" Plainly
referring to the President as un-
American.
BY the small majority of thirty-one
votes the President won the opening
round and forced his gag rule on
the House. Already he is preparing
to punish those who had the temerity
to oppose him. Administration men
are saying that he will depose Under
wood as leader and will have his own
candidate for Speaker il the next
House is Democratic.
IF--that is the big question just
now. Are we through with constant
trucking and shin-scraping to for
eign governments? Have we had
enough of seeing our own business
and working people kicked in the face
every time they appeal in Washing
ton with a protest against some un-
American law? Is there going to be
another Democratic House?
We think not. Underwood and
Clark have little to fear at the hands
of the President. He will be shorn of
considerable of his power to retaliate
before another session opens, unless
all signs fail.

less of the color of their uniforms, far
more deeply than they have ever done
In the past
Secretary of War Garrison, in ex-
pressing his appreciation of the man
ner in which Major Normoyle handled
the encampment, pointed out that the
encampment at one time reached a
total of $4,000. There they were-the
men who had fought SO bitterly against
each other in the war, now locked in
each others arms, laughing or weep
ing. over the scenes that had been so
real and vital bathed now in sunshine

THE PRESIDENT AND gag" RULE

THE PRESIDENT AND GAG" RULE
TUBBORN to the point of bull
headedness at home, spineless
~ as an oyster abroad, President
Wilson has assumed the peculiar
position of autocratic dictator at
Washington and of trucking, boot
licking Uriah Heap in his dealings
with foreign nations. He makes the
Democratic platform his fetish when
IT suits him and rides roughshod over
1t when England cracks the whip
Il was elected on the Democratic
platform" he told the suffragists
when they asked him to support their
cause in Washington, "and I cannot
recommend such law because there
is no mention of it in that platform"
A few weeks later we find him. at the
behest of England and for reasons
which he will not make public, at
tempting to boss" Congress into re-
pudiating Democratic platform
pledge.
What, we ask, may we not expect
from such man, and how far is he to
be trusted?
AS candidate we>heard him crying
from the housetops against what he
chose to term "Cannonism" in Con-
gress, and yesterday we saw him force
on the House gag" rule of the very
kind he condemned so loudly when he
was an officeseeker; gag" rule that
not even such heretofore subservient
followers as Underwood and Clark
couid support.
Bearing in mind the united front of
the Democratic party following the
inauguration of President Wilson and
| the readiness of Underwood and Clark
/ to carry out White House orders, the
revolt of these two men and their fol-
lowers is all the more remarkable.
Very politely and indirectly both Clark
and Underwood took the President
severely to task yesterday when he
set to work to gag" Representatives
against the utterance of things not
pleasant to presidential ears. The
gag" rule was purely Wilson rule.
and here Is what Speaker Clark said
OF 1t: You are making a serious
mistake If you adopt this rule, and I
would not be worthy of the commits
sion you have given me as leader IL l
did not have the courage to stand
here and say So"
Anybody familiar with the manner
in which the Wilson Administration
treats those who oppose its pet poll
cies win agree with the Speaker tina,
1t did require some courage for him
to stand up in the House and attack
the President. 4
And this from Underwood, first lieu
tenant to the President and leader on
the floor of the House: "Our whole
difficulty arises from the un American
/. srlr1t of surrender that some of OUR

the Secretary of the Treasury,
4 the Assistant Postmaster GEN
eral and Postmaster Sites of the
hreider bill for the further enlarge
ment of the Harrisburg Post Office
shows how we'll Congressman Kreider
estimated the postal needs of this city
when he presented his measure for
the appropriation of $4,000 additional
for the work of remodeling the local
Federal building.
Congressman Kreider made a per-
sonal inspection of the plans drawn
for the improvement of the Post Office
and at once came to the conclusion
that even with the increase of floor
space for which they provided the
postal forces here would be crippled
for room, the parcel post having added
greatly to the burden of mail matter
handled in Harrisburg. Taking up
the question with Postmaster Sites he
confirmed his own estimates and the
bill for an additional appropriation is
the result.
1t is altogether likely that the
Kreider bill will be passed at an early
date. 1t is hard to see how Congress
could do otherwise, with the proof of
the necessity of the appropriation so
apparent and endorsement at hand
from such authoritative sources. 1t
would be wasteful to spend S125,00
of government money for a mere
makeshift, when an additional SIS, 900
will give the city a Federal building
adequate for its needs for many years
