EXTENSION BILL
WILL PASS CONGRESS

There is every indication that Con-
gress, before adjournment, will pass
a bill amending the national reclama-
ton law, so as to Tighten the burden
imposed upon settlers on government
irrigation projects. There is gen.
eral agreement between the admin
istration and western senator's and
members in Congress on that feature
OF the bill which allows twenty years,
instead OF ten, in which to make wa
ter payments, and it also is generally
agreed that settlers should DC exempt
from payments during their first five
years OF residence on a new project.
Secretary Lane contends. however.
that settlers, at the time of filing,
should be required to pay FIVE per
cent. of the water charge, but Sena-
tor Brady and Repre- sentative Smith
OF Idaho have been stoutly protest
ing against this requirement, contend
ing that 1t will operate as a bar TO
many desirable settlers. At every
conference in which they have partic-
ipated, Senator Brady and Congress
man Smith have contended that no
payment should be required at the
time OF filing, and that the first pay
ment should not be exacted until five
years from the date of settlement on
the land. II an initial per cent.
payment is required by the bill as re-
ported to the Senate and House, Sem
ator Brady and Representative Smith
will offer amendments doing away
with that payment. As compromise
Mr.. Smith suggests that instead of
paying per cent. at the time of fling
settlers be required to pay one per
cent per annum for the first Ave
years, FIVE per cent. annually for the
next five years, and seven per cent
per annum for the last ten years.

Drunkenness and Divorce.

That Kansas City is contending
for a place as second Reno, in re-
spect to divorces, is evidenced by the
number of DEGREES that have been
granted here, particularly in the
presen term. More than 500 cases
have been tried or are on the dock
cts of the various divisions of the
circuit court for immediate hearing.
In most of the cases tried, DEGREES
were granted. More than 100 have
gone by default, and more than 80
per cent of the cases tried have been
brought by women.
Desertion and drunkenness are the
principal causes as set forth in the
petitions, and fully four-fifths of
the cases are brought by plaintiffs
between 20 and 35 years of age. How
ever, there are many of the princi-
pals who have reached the age of 30
years or more. One instant, which
came up before Judge Clyde Wilcox,
who supplanted Judge Allen c. Sou
thern in the circuit court bench last
Friday, was that of a woman near
ing go years of age, and the mother
of several grown children.-Kansas

"The Japanese army is in a COM

THE Mexico Brick and Fire Clay
Company, in spite of "hard times" is
going to run all winter. Of course,
the plant will not run full time, but
in order that the employees may be
taken care of, the plant will run as
full as possible. The outlook for pros
perity throughout the country, espec-
tally with the big establishments
that use fire brick seems to be better
and it is hoped that very soon the
plant will be able to run full time. A
great many brick plants throughout
the country are shutting down entire
ly for the winter, but Mr.. Green is
anxious to give his employees as much
work as possible.

The committee from the churches
to distribute the Good Fellows Fund
at Christmas time and to look after
poor and needy of Mexico through
out the winter met at the City Hall,
Tuesday afternoon, and organized.
c. A. Witherspoon was elected
chairman and Wallace Dearing, Sec
retary and treasurer. Mr.. Dearing
will have charge of the money con-
tributed by the Good Fellows for dis
posal by this committee.
On motion of Leo Hanly, it was
voted to have the lodges of this city
l and the members Of the City Council
report to the committee the names
of needy persons in the various wards
giving the address and number in the
family. In this way it is thought the
committee will get in touch with ev'
cry family in want in Mexico.
No other action was taken, Tues
day, but the committee will meet
shortly after Thanksgiving and maks
further arrangements for carrying
out their work, doing the most gooc

THE report that the Mexico Brick
G. Fire Clay Co. plant is going to
close is a mistake. A. P. Green, the
owner, stated Wednesday, he was
working the men eight hours a day
for three to four days week and
expected to do so until the orders
justified his running the plant full
time. This plant has been in opera
ton steadily for four years, since he
took charge, and it is now one Of the
very few plants in the country in op
GRAFTON and the only one that has mo-
closed down for certain period ol
time. The payroll at the plant is be
tween 81, 500 and $4,000 week.

CLARK PRAISES WILSON

Washington, Nov. "a. = Champ
Clark, speaker of the House Of Rep
resentatives, in an address at Savan-
nah, Ca, saw fit to say this:
an such parlous times as these,
some madcap is liable to do disagree
able things at any time and usually
these things can be set right by lit
tie common sense, and President Will
son seems to have an abundance of
that exceedingly valuable quality"
In Washington Mr.. Clark's madeap
reference is interpreted as being di-
rected at Captain Decker Of the Ten
nessee. AS far as things can be de-
termined, Captain Decker of the Ten
nessee was acting under the orders OF
his superiors and, moreover, his er-
rand was a peaceful one.
