Fakers.

Inscriptions lawyers of Wash
ington and elsewhere are sending
out circular letters offering Sin
side information" aud tips on
preference rights" to be had on
the stockraising homestead bill
for a consideration, of course.
These are fakes, pure and SIM
pie. There is no inside" infor-
nation in the possession of any
one. The bill is still before the
Senate Committee, and will prob.
ably be reported to the Senate
early in March, although with
what changes even the committee
members cannot tell yet, as the
two main amendments considered
have not been voted on. No one
can tell what changes the Senate
will make, or whether the House
will consent to them or no-in
fact, it is anybody's guess as to
what form this measur will take
if finally enacted. The only pref
renee rights anyone could get in
the law will be that given those
who already own entries and who
will be given a preference right of
entry to lands adjoining them.

ly anxious to leave Saratoga, but
for a better position. Basin is a
nice town of some 1900 inhabi-

for a better and bigger town, and
We feel sure that Mr.. Newport
will be able to expand to his own
liking in that field. We think
there will be little doubt of his
proving to be the best community
worker and builder that Basin has
seen for some time.

Continental Army Plan.

In connection with the reslgna-
ton of Secretary Garrison the
CHEYENNE Leader and some other
Wyoming newspapers are con-
demning the continental army
plan as something awful, and crit
icising Mr.. Garrison numerically
for advocating such a plan-tell-
ing their readers that Garrison's
removal removes "the foremost
advocate" of the continental army
plan and relegates it to oblivion
"where it belongs" These papers
seem to have forgotten that it was
President Wilson who first advo-
Gated the continental army plan;
that he did SO in his message to
Congress and in his speeches on
his recent tour. As a matter OF
fact, when his leaders came to
him and told him the plan could
not muster a corporars guard in
House or Senate-just a few days
ago-Mr. Wilson declared him
self still in favor of the continent
tai army plan, although he would
not presume to dictate to Con-
gress what it should do. Wilson
and Garrison agreed on the con-
tinental army plan, but the mo-
ment opp osition developed Wilson
abandoned it, while Garrison re-
signed rather than surrender bis
firm convictions.

Kills Wolf.

j. A, Mauk came up from the
Pass creek country the first of the
week to collect a wolf bounty. He
killed a wolf last Sunday on Pass
creek, where he has been trapping
this winter. He reports a very
good winters trapping and his
bounty alone amounts to over
$500. He has taken 10 coyotes, l
wolf, 2 bobcats, 3 mink and IL
badger. The wolf bounty amounts
to $3.50 at this time, which is
mostly a private bounty offered
by stockmen. Mr.. Mauk is a good
tlapper and makes a neat sum of
money each winter at this work.

paratory to quitting, for the win

Rev. Newport to Basin.

Rev. NJ. F. Newport, who re-
signed here last week from the
pastorate of the Presbyterian
church, left Tuesday afternoon
Tor Basin, Wyo., in the northern
part of the state where he will be
installed as pastor of the church
al that place. 1t will be some
time before Mrs. Newport and
her daughter will follow, owing to
Mrs. Newport's music scholars

Marine Song.

The United States Marine Corps
is UNIQUE in all branches of the
American services, in having a
distinctive marching song that is
as swingy, and catchy, as many of
the foreign marching songs. True,
West Point has it's Benny Ravens
song and the Seventh Cavalry
marches to the inspiring tune of
Garry Owen, but the Halls OF
Montezuma" is sung by all who
wear the Marines uniform. One
verse of the sopg-a favorite one
runs:
Our flags unfurled to every
breeze,
From dawn to setting sun,
We've fought in every cline
and place,
Where we could take a gun:
In the snow of far off North
ern lands
And in sunny tropie scenes,
You will find us always on
the job,

CONGRESS- Slow.

congress Slow.
Congress has been in session
almost three months, and in view
of the declared urgency of things
generally, a sorry record has been
made indeed. The only legisla-
ton to date, outside of a few bills
authorizing bridges across navaga-
BILE streams, has been the enact
ment of an urgent Deficiency
Bill" and a Further Urgent De-
ficieney Bill"- both to fill yawn-
ing holes in the funds provided
for running the government. Vo-
ting the peoples money to meet
Departmental deficits in the or
binary expenses of the govern
ment, and a few million dollars to
Nicaragua, completes the record
of legislation to datel The great
question of preparedness, ON which
We were assured We would have
immediate legislation, is about as
far along as when congress con-
vened.
After months of backing and
filling, abandonment and ~sidestep-
ping, the administration amour
ces the first of these measures, the
Army bill, will be out in a week
or two. This means the bill will
soon be introduced; but its a long,
long way from there to enactment.
The bill said to have been agreed
to by the administration is only a
bluff at preparedness, and will not
suit the preparedness patriots at
all, who insist upon at least $751;
600 men, with a total available
force of a half-million, as against
the 10000 proposed by the adj
ministration bill. The Navy bill
is still in the air. While under
the gag rule put in operation by
the democrats these bills can be
showed through the House in no
time, this rule dare not be invok-
ed on these measures, SO that they
must consume weeks of discussion
in the lower house before enact
ment.
The Senate can talk as long as
it wants to, and any attempt to
gag it will defeat any easur for
which the gag is invoked. When
it is remembered that a bakers
dozen favoring the same plan can
not be found in the Senate, one
can begin to see the time it is 60
ing to take to reach legislation on
this subject. All talk of early adj
journment is idle chatter, unless
the administration abandons its
legislative program. The great
question of revenue must consume
weeks if not months when it il
reached, and this subject has
hardly been considered by the
committee as yet. Wilson can't
run this congress as he did the
other, and he must have Republic
can support to get through with
his important legislation. Hence
the hesitating, changing, ear-to
playground tactics employed sine,
congress opened.

Stealing Principle.

Washington, D.. O., Feb. 29--
"One of the best arguments for
the Republican protective tariff
policy has been furnished by the
Democratic party"
This comment was made today
by Representative Charles b. Tim
berlake of Colorado on the recent
action of the Democratic caucus
pledging support to the bill for
retaining the present duty on su-
gar.
I'm the first place, this proposal
to maintain the present sugar tax
is an admission by the Democrats
of the financial failure of their adj
ministration," said Mr.. Timber
lake. Confronted by an ever-in-
creaslng deficit in the treasury,
and at their wits end how to meet
it, they are forced to recognize
Republican principle to prevent a
further annual loss of about $40,-
100000 in revenue.
Furthermore, the secondary eft.
feet of the Democratic reduction
of about so cents per hundred
pounds in the sugar duty consti-
tutes another admission of failure.
When the democrats advocated
free sugar they claimed that the
price of sugar to the consumer
would be reduced in proportion to
the reduction in duty. But what
are the facts?
"The partial reduction in the
sugar duty wiped out the zane su-
gar industry of the United States.
1t partially destroyed the beet su
gar industry and completely block
ed it's further development. 1t
conferred a benefit upon the su-
gar industry in foreign countries.
II reduced the annual customs
revenues about ten millions. At
the same time the price of sugar
in America has remained practic-
ally the same.
sin short, this one item in the
Democratic tariff law has reduced
our revenues, tremendously dam
aged American industry, aided
foreign competitors, and has been
of no benefit whatever to Ameri-
can consumers.
ut is not surprising that indi-
vidual Democrats in the recent
caucus refused to abide by its de-
oision because it was furnishing
ammunition to their opponents.
The Republican contention has
been completely justified"

NO DECISION IN
MANDAMUS SUITS
ARGUED IN COURT
Judge McCord Takes Under
Amusement Controversy
of Attorney General
and Governor

Montgomery. October 27-(Special)
Circuit Judge Leon McCord early this
afternoon took under advisement the
three mandamus suits against the gov
ernor, involving the constitutionality and
efficacy Of the act passed by the recent
legislature. known as the attorney gen.
erals BILL" which was supposed to have
broadened the authority of the attorney
general.
Constitutionalty of the act was at
tackled on the ground that it carries an
indefinite appropriation violative of Sec
ton u of the constitution: that the leg
islature cannot delegate to anyone the
''unbridled power to spend the state s
money" and that the act violates sec
ton Il of the constitution on the theory
that only general act, carrying appro-
priauons can contain more than one SUBJ
ject matter. The latter was an entirely
new point, brought up toward the end of
the hearing by w. H. Sanford, the gov
ernor's legal adviser. He held that the
attorney generals act was special ap-
preparation measure and carried more
than one subject
Other legal questions threshed out by
the attorneys were whether the gov
ernor could be mandamused and wheth-
err he might exercise his discretion in
approving certificates for disburse-
ments under the attorney generals act;
also whether. granted the act We're
valid. 1t authorizes the attorney gen.
eral to employ detectives in working
up impeachment gases
The governor was represented by
Ray Rushton. William H.. Sanford and
Fred S. Ball. The attorney generals
department was represented, by At
torney General w. l.. Martin. his spe-
cia1 assistant, Lawrence Z. Brown, and
Assistant Attorney General Harwell
Davis.
Upon the conclusion OF the argu-
ments Judge McCord announced that
he would render a decision as speedily
as possible and made it clear thatNhis
decision would be based purely on the
law as he sees it. He stated that he
expects to decide the case by the mid
die of next week. The lawyers stated
that they would like an early deci-
sion as they intend to carry it to the
supreme court speedily.
I'm going to do my best TO arrive
at a decision without regard for any
thing except the law said Judge &c
Cord. after hearing the arguments it
makes it much more difficult than
had anticipated"
The mandamus suits are those in
which ]. r. DAILY is seeking to force
the governor to honor certificate for
expenses of more than 500 in max ing
an investigation of the Sheriff Pal NJ.
Daniel impeachment case in Russell
county. in which Attorney Martin
would force the executive to approve
a certificate approving expenses>of $50
incurred by him in attending the cir
cult court of Russell county. and in
which Special Assistant Attorney GEN
eral Perry W. Turner seeks to compel
the executive to honor warrant for
his September salary of $3.50 under a
contract approved by the governor en-
ploying Mr.. Turner at the rate of
$4,000 a year.
The arguments were altogether on
the demurrers which involve all the
questions except those of fact and on
the facts there was no dispute.
