WASHINGTON, Sept 1.-THE efforts OF
the Administration to strike the So
called "recapture clause from the water
power bill were defeated twice in the
House to-day by convincing votes. This
provision, according to Chairman Sims
and other Democratic members OF the
Interstate Commerce Committee. crept
Into the measure In some way they can
not explain. 1t was on this subject
that Mr.. Sims received letters from the
President and several members Of the
Cabinet, but these added levers have
failed to dislpdge the offending portion
OF the bill.
The clause provides that the Govern
ment shall pay to companies leasing

ments" when their fifty year leases ex-
pire. Representative Ferris (Okla.)
offered two amendments designed to
change this.
The first amendment provided that
the companies be paid the fair value"
This amendment was beaten 96 to IL.
Then Mr.. Ferris offered an amendment
providing that the amount paid to the
companies for their investments at the
conclusion of the leases should be the
fair value" but not more than the
met investment" This was beaten IS
to So.
Mr.. Ferris expects to offer one. of
his amendments again.

THE FOURTH IN JACKSON co.

The Glorious Fourth in Newport iwas very quiet date in history. Though there was patriotic wish and longing for rain, the weather man declined to refresh our crops and hopes, evidently believing that a fair and warm day was in keeping with the occasion. Many of our citizens utilized their automobiles to reach nearby points where picnics were in progress, while others formed small outing parties and others stayed at home. The stores in the city were closed for half day. In several sec tfons of the county intensive work for the sales of war savings stamps was carried on, with great deal of suc- cess. Practically all the picnics Throughout the country were given 4or the benefit of the Red Cross, in consequence of which several tidy spma were accumulated f0f a worthy tcause {

In the enforcement of the new "work- order all citizens have been asked as patriotic duty to report to their nearest local board any facts coming to their knowledge concerning registrants between 21 and 31 who are idle or who are en- gagged in non-essential occupations.
 The following classes, according to the order, are not considered to be in sufficiently effective occupations to justify the postponement of their call to military service.
 Persons engaged in the serving of food and drink in public places, in- cluding hotels and social clubs; pas senger elevator operators and attend ants in clubs, hotels, apartment houses, office buildings and bath houses; persons, including ushers and other attendants engaged in con- nection with games, sports and amusements, excepting actual per formers in legitimate concerts, opera or theatrical performances; persons employed in domestic service; sales clerks and other clerks employed in stores and other mercantile estab- lishments.

MANY MANUFACTURERS
 DENIED USE OF SUGAR

Sugar for the remainder of the year has been denied a great many manufacturers who failed to comply with a government order last month and file a report showing the amount of sugar they had on hand Those reports had to be in by June IT. Many manufacturers had supply of sugar to last them to July Now when they want sugar there is no re- cord on file in his city from them. Of course they are bowling, but in- structions from Washington on that particular are emphatic.
 Now, it is announced, new reports are demanded, and in order that no buyer of sugar may be penalized, Hamp Williams, state food admins trator, has issued the following:
 ''New reports must be filed by all buyers of sugar, whether you have a supply for July or not. These reports must be in my office on or before Ju- Ily 15. If you have made application for sugar purchasing certificates you will not have to make out another report at this time. These reports must be made out by everyone who buys sugar, excepting only the house. holder who purchases for private con sumption.
 Federal, state county and city in stitutions using sugar are not per mitted to buy that product without the sugar purchasing certificate. If they have not already made the proper application, they are urged to do so at once. They, too, must file the official report. Sugar will posi- lively be denied for the remainder of the year to all who do not make these reports. If you are in doubt as to what you should do, write me im- mediately." The above report refers to Statement E for retailers of suuar, and Statement c for boarding houses, which we have been getting in the last few days"
