MINERS BOOSTING
Moscow STATION
RESOLUTION BEFORE NORTHWEST
CONVENTION WILL ASK SPO-
KANE TO WITHDRAW

SPOKANE, Wash, Feb. 23.-Mlnlne
interests have proposed that SPOKANE
give up it's efforts to secure a govern
ment mining station and indorse MOS
COW. A resolution to this effect has
been submitted to the committee and
when recommended will go before the
Northwest Mining cinvention for adop-
ton.
Other resolutions being considered
by the convention call for the appoints
ment of a committee to work for an
eIectrolytic smelter in Spokane, for
another committee to secure for Spo-
kane an ore-testing plant, and IN
dorsing the efforts being made to get
a wagon road built with federal aid
into Elk City, Idaho, the district which
contributed $15O,OOO,OOO in placer gold
toward the financing Of the civil war.
1t is possible that Seattle may demur
to full station at Moscow, fearing it
will leave little to be done at the sta
ton already located on the Sound. This
year the bureau of mines expects to
locate another mining station in the
Pacific northwest and two others in
other mining states.
The resolutions are as follows:
Whereas, it is the intention OF the
federal bureau of mines, as recently
announced, to establish an expert
mental substation at the University OF
Idaho. and as it is the sense of the
northwest mining convention that in
terests of the metal mining industry OF
the tributary territory can be better
served by an independent station.
ssBe it resolved that the northwest
mining convention strongly recon-
mends to the federal government the
establishment of an Independent ex-
pertinent station at Moscow in place
of substation at that point"
whereas, Idaho, eastern Washing |
ton. western Montana and southern
British Columbia are rapidly develop |
ing into one of the worlds great min
ing districts, and,
whereas, in spite of the fact that
big smelters have been built in the
last year in this district there still is
need for other ore treating and testing
plants, therefore,
"Be 1t resolved, that the northwest
mining convention recommend that the
officers and directors of the Northwest

CONGRESSMEN PLAN TO
RELIEVE EFOOD SHORTAGE
Senator Lewis Would Give President Power to Seize
Foodstuffs Being Held to Increase Prces-Pres-
dent Plans to Take Matter Before Cabinet.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The fooC
situation was given consideration il
congress today, and is soon to be ia
ken up by President Wilson with the
cabinet
Senator ]. Hamilton Lewis intro
duced an amendment to the revenue
bill empowering the president tc
sieze foodstuffs being wrongfully held
for the purpose of unjustly increas-
ing prices in violation of the anti
trust laws.
Senator James E. MARITIME of New
Jersey offered a resolution prohibit
ing the expectation of staple goods.
President Wilson expects to take
definite steps to force an appropria-
tion to cover the cost of food in
yestigation. 1t was declared in the
house that the administration plans to
reopen the fight for the appropriation
in, the house if it is rejected in the
senate.
Despite the recent food riots, offic-
ials ridicule the reports that an en-
barge on expectations is possible.
They hint that foreigners may have
melted the riots.
Representative Meyer London OF
New York is working to secure an ap-
preparation of $5,0O0,00O for the pur-
pose of buying food to be resold by
the government at reasonable prices.
Railroads are now rushing hun
dreds of empty cars to the large ship
ping points. 1t was learned today
that on February 10th 10000 cars
were held at distributing centers on
account of the congestion.

DRAMATIC CLOSE
AT LOBBY PROBE
TWIN FALLS ATTORNEY GIVEN
ESCORT AFTER WORDY TILT
WITH SENATOR ELLIOTT

BOISE, Feb. 23-The anti-alie1
ciary committee came to an abrup
and dramatic close here yesterday
afternoon when c. NJ. Booth, the TwiI
Falls attorney associated with the
| lobby charges, branded as false in
toto the charges made against him in
affidavits and was forced to face Sen
ator Elliott, . who demanded to know
who had lied, the attorney or the
makers of the affidayits, Messrs. Ran
kin, Craig and Hasbrouck. Booth
pleaded his physical unfitness to tes-
tify, but crossed the investigating
committee frequently and demanded
to know the charge that was against
him. He was finally escorted from
the senate room and the capitol
building by the sergeant-at-arms and
his assistant to prevent personal at
tack from two of the men who had
sworn to the affidavit.
Referring to Senator Atherton of
Twin Falls, who is the author of a
bill to prevent inter-mariage be-
tween Mongolians and American
girls and who had stated in the senate
that Booth had accompanied the
Japanese in Twin Falls seeking to
secure a marriage license to marry an
American girl, Booth openly charged
Atherton had admitted he lied"
"Atherton's only claim to patriotism
is his facial likeness to General
Grant, ,"scried the enraged Twin Falls
attorney. Senator Cummings asked
to have the remark stricken from the
record Booth demanded to know if
he did not have any rights.
Senator Elliott then faced Booth
and demanded to know who had lied
about the charge that senator's had
been ted on the anti-alien bill. . He
said he was entitled to the explana-
ton and insisted that it be given as he
shook his hand at the Twin Falls at
torney Booth curtly replied he. had
answered that question by denying
the charge and the hearing broke up
while Booth demanded and and was
given an escort from the room as the
crowd surged about him.

n Char0e OF ne IIini.
It seemed a long time, yet 1t could
scarcely have exceeded a few mo-
ments, for the light Of early dawn was
still dim and spectral, making those
savage figures below appear strange
and inhuman, while, through the tree
barrier, the more distant stockade was
little more than a vague shadow. I
could barely distinguish the sharp
pointed logs, and II any guard passed,
his movements were indistinguishable.
Had I not known where they were,
v e the position Of the gates would
have been a mystery. Yet I lay there,
my eyes peering through the cleft in
the rock, every nerve in my body throb-
bling. All had been intrusted to me;
It was to be my signal which would
send D'Artigny, La Forest, and their
indian allies forward. I must not fail
them; I must do my part. Whatever
the cost-even though 1t be his life
nothing could absolve me from this
duty.
The Iroquois were massing toward
the center. directly In front Of the
closed gates. The change in formation
was made with all the stealthiness Of
Indian cunning, the warriors creeping
silently behind the ~concealing bushes,
and taking up their new positions &C
cording b motions Of their chiefs.
Those having Rides loaded their weap-
ons, while others drew knives and tom
ahawks from their belts, and held them
gnttering in the gray light The white
leader remained beside tho big tree.
