JONES' RESIGNATION As

ness as Representative. Is
Declaration.

Resolutions demanding that Wes-
ley l.. Jones resign as United States
senator from this state because of
his pro-German speech in the recent
filibuster on the armed neutrality
bill, were unanimously adopted at
big mass meeting in Chehalis the
other day under the auspices of the
Citizens club Of that city. and by the
Alexander Hamilton chapter Of Taco
ma. Sons OF the American Revolu-
ton. The same demand has been
made by other organizations and by
several newspapers Of the state, in
GLIDING the Tacoma Tribune.
The Chehalis meeting was reported
to have been the largest mass meet
ing in the city's history. All but one
Of the speakers we're Republicans
and all roundly scored Senator Jones.
The resolutions were similar to those
adopted by the Alexander Hamilton
chapter, the last paragraph Of which
reads:

of your pro-German propaganda
against the president of the United
States is not in the interest of the
country, and the cause of patriotism

ANT|-F|L|bUSTER
RULE IS ADOPTED
SENATE, SCORED BY PRESIDENT
AND COUNTRY, MODIFIES ITS
PROCEDURE.

Woodrow Wilson has succeeded in
doing in ninety-three hours what it
took the senate itself ninety-three
years to do.
Sunday night, March 4, on the eve
Of his second Inauguration as presi-
dent OF the United States. Mr.. Will
son issued statement condemning
the ancient filibuster permitted by
the rules Of the senate and demand
ing the adoption of some form of rea-
sonable cloture.
Last Friday, ninety-three hours
later, the senate Of the United States,
by a vote of IS to 3, cast the rule per-
hitting unlimited discussion Of leg
islation into the discard and substi-
tuted for 1t a cloture rule whereby,
on a vote of two-thirds of the men,
bers. debate can be limited to max
imum of ninety-six hours, or one hour
for each member of the senate.
This achievement, compelled by
the defeat of the armed neutrality
bill by "a little group Of willful
men," by resort to the filibuster, is
hailed as one of the most progressive
steps ever taken by congress.
The debate over the new rule con-
sumed little more than five hours. 1t
was more notable for the "alibis'
offered by some of the senator's who
took part in the filibuster that ended
with the defeat of the armed neu-
trality bill than for any arguments
for or against cloture itself.
The presidents advisers feel that
the adoption Of cloture by the senate
carries with it practically the full
approval of his foreign policy by the
senate as we'll as of the lower house
of congress and the country.
The three senators who voted
against it were Gronna of North Da-
kota, La Toilette of Wisconsin and
Sherman of Illinois.

FEDERAL SECRET AGENTS
UNCOVER GERMAN PLOTS
Authorities Declare Berlin Levied
War Tax on Germans In the
United States.

The United States secret service
net, reaching into all sections Of the
country, is slowly gathering in parts
of an alleged German machine that
was put together in Wilhelmstrasse
to violate American neutrality or
work against American interests in
case of war.
Arrests in New York, Philadelphia,
Chicago and Los Angeles show the
extent Of the federal operations. The
discoveries Of the federal agents as
to German Vaccinations in this coun-
try are producing daily sensations.
The New York district attorney has
announced that revelations Of a Ger
man agent establish as fact the ru-
mors that the Kaiser has been levy
ing a war tax on his subjects in this
country. Accredited representatives
of Germany, it is said. have systemat-
ically assessed Germans in America
and have collected millions of dollars.
The spending of this money will be
one of the objects Of the grand jury
probe already under way in New
York. Oficials do not believe the
money was sent to Berlin. Indica-
lions that a huge German fund was
in existence during recent elections
to insure the election of federal and
state officials who would be favorable
to German enterprises are being
probed.
There are also intimations that ba-
zaars for German Red Cross benefit
and fairs for the same purpose may
be subjected to the scrutiny Of the
federal officials, who say they do not
believe most of this money ever has
been sent to Germany. A total OF
$5,OOO.O0O has been collected by this
method, 1t was stated.

SOME GOOD RA1|ONS
FOR DAIRY COWS
VARIETY OF FEEDS ESSENTIAL
LOW COST OF CHIEF CON-
SHERATON.
FURNISHED by the State College.)

FURNISHED by the State College,
In the economical feeding of dairy
cows, the feeder must consider the
amount of feed. the composition Of
the ration and the cost Of the ration.
The cow must receive sufficient feed
to furnish enough digestible material
to supply the proper nutrients for the
maintaining of her body and support
her most profitable milk yield.
The amount of grain to be fed will
depend upon the individual cow and
the relative cost of grain and hay and
the price at which the product is sold.
The common rule is to feed Guernseys
and Jerseys about one pound Of grain
for each three to three and one-half
pounds of milk and Holsteins, Short
horns and Ayrshires one pound Of
grain for each four to five pounds OF
milk. If one has plenty Of good home
grown clover, alfalfa, pea and oat, or
oat and vetch hay it will probably be
more economical to feed little light
er on grain.
But II alfalfa hay must be bought
at prevailing high prices and a grain
mixture can be secured for $50 to 1872
a ton it will pay to feed more grain.
For the best yield and to maintain
the health of the herd. the cows need
a variety Of feeds in their ration. The
dairyman should not feel that he
must hold to any certain combination
of feeds, but should select that prop
erly balanced ration that can be had
at least cost per ton.
The following grain mixtures
should give good results. Select that
one best suited to your roughage and
that can be had at lowest cost:

Remarkable Disturbance at Taku Occurs and Ole Skagen Loses
 His Life.
TONS OF ICE RELEASED
Preliminary Warnings of . Disturbance of the
 Glaciers Given
 Weeks Ago

With the breaking out of the dead glacier at Taku and cave in of ice from the live glacier, re the death of Ole Skagen, a fisher man and resident of Tacoma, no such ice disturbances as witnessed this week have probably taken place there for generations.
 For the past two weeks there had been preliminary warnings of unusual doings among the two glaciers. Some or the residents were certain that they could hear explosions coming from the dead" glacier" but were laughed at since that gray-covered
 ice body had not operated probably since the world was young. How ever, the ice agitation in the live glacier, at least, kept the waters around the fishing fleet and scows restless and agitated, and at times the cannonading was terrific, and the channel was filled with ice. Monday it was observed that there was big hole in the live glacier
 On Thursday evidently millions of tons of ice which had been hollowed out suddenly settled and a tidal wave at least eight feet high raced across the channel and across the mouth of Taku river and rocked and almost tipped over the scows and fish ing boats kept near the point Ole Skagen was out in his fishing boat just off the mouth of the Taku and in the path of the tidal wave when the boat was tipped over. The body was brought to Young's Undertak ing Parlors. Efforts are being made to communicate with the brother in Tacoma.
 The steamer Spokane on Thursday was unable to get near the glacier, owing to the channel being choked with ice Old residents there de clare they have never before wit messed such a disturbance. When the channel clears so that boats can again approach near the face of the glacier, it is believed that great changes will be noted.
 The Taku natives declare that about 400 years ago as the time of the whites go, the Taku glacier eX- tended across the mouth of the Taku river and they used to portage their canoes across into great lake, where now is the bed of the Taku river In fact, to this day may be seen water marks high on the mountain side indicating the line of the ancient lake.
 The Taku Inlet and glacier and river figure most largely in the SUI perstitutions of the natives, indicat- ing many changes within the past few hundred years. There are still haunted lakes into which glaciers empty in that section which no na- tives will visit even to this day. From the mouth of the Taku river where formerly the Taku glacier extended to the present face of the live glacier it is over four miles. In fact. the entire Taku Inlet, ex- tending to Gastineau channel was probably carved by the glacier that is now rapidly retreating into the mountains.
