SALOONS TRY
 TO EVADE LAW
SEATTLE MEN SELL SUBSTl- TUTES FOR BEER AND WILL
 BE PROSECUTED.

SEATTLE, Jan. 5.-The authorities have decided to prosecute the saloon men who have started selling Life staff" and other substitutes for beer since the prohibition law went into et- feet last Saturday. The trials of the cases will be regarded as test cases 10 prove whether substitutes come under the law or not.
 The most extraordinary results have been noted for the past few days since the saloons were closed. Numerous instances have been noted in which men turned into saloons for a drink in moments of absent mind edness, only to find when they got inside that soft drinks were the best they could hope. for. The whole at mosphere of the city seems to have undergone a peculiar change which can, however, hardly be described, There is apparently no general at tempt to evade tte law.

BUSY SESSION
 FOR CONGRESS
SMALLER DEMOCRATIC MAJORI- TY WILL MAKE THE CON
 TEST MORE INTERESTING

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.--The legis- lative program, already largely fram- ed promises unusual factionaI strife, the fate of two or three political parties being at stake and presidential prospects, with many booms due for puncturing, involved.
 Shortly after congress meets an nual conferences of republican and democratic committees are scheduled to begin firing heavy artillery of the next Presidential campaign.
 Legislation provoked by war condi- tions promises to monopoIize atten- tion The administration plans to eX- pedite passage of a resolution on ex- tending the war tax at least another year. It expired Dee. 31 Another resolution for prompt action will be that continuing the tariff on sugar, tow scheduled to go on the free list in May
 Woman suffrage hosts are planning monster demonstration at the open ing of Congress. Increased appropri- ations for the army and navy are re- garded as certain. The administra- tion's Mexican policy is due for an alysis. The discussion will determine how important an issue it will he in the presidential campaign.
 Another big battle over the govern ment ship purchase bill is believed in- evitable because of division among Democratic House leaders. Among the political developments impending will be the extent of Republican and Bull Moose-amalgamation and the degree of unity in the Democratic party.
 The House is expected to be the arena of the sharpest controversies, the overwhelming Democratic major ity there of the last Congress being cut to a scant 25. The appearance of new democratic leaders there and the return of republican veterans like Uncle Joe" Cannon, William Me Kinley and Nick" Longworth, lend interest.
