lieves 1t Has Sufficient
Grounds to Dissolve the
American Smelling and
Refining Company.
BILL IN EQUITY is
BEING PREPARED
Action Is Regarded as OF
Great Importance, Ranking
Next to Standard Oil and
Steel Trust Cases.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20, - After
months Of quiet investigation the de
partment of justice has concluded that
1t has sufficient grounds for suit to
dissolve, under the Sherman antitrust
act, the American Smelling and Re.
filming company, the so-called smelling
trust. 1t is not probable that suit will
be filed Immediately, but it is under,
stood that the preparations have gone
90 far that a bill in equity is being
drawn by department attorneys.
1t became known tonight that F. "
Lehman, former solicitor general OF
the United States, has been retained
by the socalled trust and it is possible
that he will confer with the attorney
general before the department files
suit. Mr.. McReynolds said today that
he had no engagement with Mr.. Leh,
mann to discuss the case.
Suit of Importance.
Suit against the smelling "trust - is
regarded here as of great importance e
ranked only by the Standard Oil and
the steel corporation suits. This view
obtains not only because the American
Smelling and Refining and the Ameri.
can Smelters Securities company, which
it controls, have combined authorized
capital Of nearly $l50,000,000, but be,
cause OF the varied activities Of the
two concerns.
The parent company has a perpetual
charter under the laws of New Jersey,
and deals in bar gold and silver, pig
lead, copper and blue vitriol. 1t owns
about twelve smelters and two refin-
cries. In the corporation manual for
1913 its smelling capacity is given at
5y5O0,000 tons per annum and its refin-
ing capacity at 100000 tons. Through
the Securities company, its smelling
capacity is increased by 2,650,000 tons
and its refining capacity by 100000
tons.

ADDRESSES ROUNDUP
Welfare of Nations Depends
Upon the Prosperity and

culturists, He Says.
By STAT Correspondent.

LOGAN, Jan. 29.-Declaripg that the
United States government had been
one Of the most backward in the world
in recognizing the needs of the farmers,
and that change WAS at hand, as in
dicated by the work Of the department
Of agriculture and the various state
agricultural colleges and universities,
Attorney Frank B. Stephens Of Salt
Lake delivered an interesting address
on "The Future of the Farmer in
Utah" at the Farmers Roundup here
this afternoon.
The address Of Attorney Stephens
and the paper on GA Programme of
Reform in Irrigation for Utah. writ
ten by DIR. Samuel Fortier, chief OF ir-
rigation in the United States reclama-
tion service, were the principal features
Of the days programme. DR.. Fortier
was unable to reach Logan IN time to
deliver his paper personally, aud it was
read by W. w. Mclaughlin, an irriga-
ton engineer of the United States de-
partment OF agriculture.
The annual convention of the Utah
State Poultry association was opened
chanic Arts building of the college.
The principal addresses were made by
W, l., Bramwell of Ogden, president Of
the association, and n. l. Nix of
Honor City, Pa, president OF the
Prairie State Incubator company and
an authority on artificial incubation.
Goes to Beginning.
In beginning his address on 1.-THE
Future of the Farmer in Utah, - At
torney Stephens sketched briefly the
history of agricultural and rural con-
ditions in the past, going bnck to the
earliest pages of Egyptian history. He
pointed out that the greatest periods
in history were the days when the
agricultural interests were most
prosperous, that in all nations pros
perity and happiness had rested upon
agriculture. He recalled the agricul-
tural history which is found in the
Bible and how great prophets. teachers
and revelators Of past ages had been
men who titled the soil Coming TO
the future of the farmer in Utah. Mr..
Stephens spoke, in part, as follows:
Now, the future OF agriculture in
Utah or IN any other state of the
union, the future OF the farmer and
The stockra!ser, Will be assured just
as fast as the man who produces
from the soil realizes his dominion.
A man tied with rotten string Is
just az bad OF as ono who is tied
with steel chain. II he does not
know that he can break the string.
And those who produce from tho soil
have too long iailed 10 realize that
they are the masters OF an empire
and that all OF the world must bow
To them IL they so choose.

REFORM OF INSANE LAWS

Instead of spending half a
million dollars on two new wings
for the Oregon insane asylums,
the insane laws of this state
should be reformed. There
should be more rigid regulations
governing commitments, which
are made altogether too easy
and the asylums are filled with
victims of drug habits and old
people who never were insane.
AS i'm other states cases of mere
senility and harmless incurables
should be returned to their fam
lilies or to county infirmaries.
The taxpayers are burdened un-
necessarily and Oregon gets the
undeserved reputation of having
more insane per capita than IL
should.

HIGH COST OF SCHOOL
BOOKS

A committee created by the
last legislature is investigating
the high cost of school books in
Multnomah county. The same
subject should interest the legis-
lature SO far as the rest Of the
state is concerned, for there is
general complaint.
Public school books not only
cost too much but changes are
forced upon the people altogeth-
er too frequently. The first text
book commission, appointed by
Gov. Geer under great public
pressure, was composed alto
gether of business men. II cut
the list of books used about II
and reduced the price materially,
giving the pupils a high class OF
text books. The next textbook
commission was partly compos-
ed of business men and partly OF
educators" This commission
increased the number OF books
and made some changes, also in
creasing the total expenses.
BY adding educators" to th'
I commission, and reducing th'
number of business men the pur
poses of economy reform arrive'
