CONGRESS ADOPTS
FRENCH AMENDMENT
CONGRESS- CARRIES AMEND
MENT BY MOSCOW MAN

One of the amendments adopted by
the house OF representatives, to the
water power bill before the passage
of the measure last evening was pro
posed by Congressman French Of Ida
no, and was to strike out the second
provision of section 23, confirming
and ratifying all temporary permits
for water power purposes heretofore
granted by the government. Mr.
French urged upon the floor that such
a blanket approval was little less than
criminal, that no member of congress
knew the contents of the permits
granted, and that probably no man in
any department could tell, without
much research, the contents of ten
per cent of the permits outstanding.
He urged that such concerns should
continue under the old permits or
else be permitted to come in under the
new law.
Another amendment added to the
water power bill, was that urged by
Congressman Stevenson of South
Carolina and Congressman French of
Idaho providing that condemnation
proceedings in amounts that involve
less than $500 shall be heard in the
state courts rather than the federal
courts. Mr.. French said that unless
the amendment should be adopted, it
would mean tremendous expense to
small homesteaders and settlers liv-
ing many miles away from the seat of
federal courts in the western states

INLAND STRIKERS
LOSE THEIR JOBS
PLACES OF STRIKING ELECTRIC
AL WORKERS WHO HOPED
TO TIE UP ROAD, FILLED

The strike of electrical workers or
the Spokane & Inland Empire rail
road is proving, as 95 per cent. of all
strikes prove, a losing proposition for
the strikers. 1t was planned to tie up
the road during the Fourth of July
rush when tens of thousands of per-
sons would have been discommoded
and annoyed by the strike, but it
failed. The strikers were given until
5 o'clock last Saturday to return to
work and failing to do this were dis
charged and should they ever return
to the service of the Inland they will
do so as new men and lose all senori-
ty rights. The following dispatch
from Spokane tells of the situation
SPOKANE The jobs Of striking
electrical workers and shop men of
the Spokane & Inland Empire Rail
way company are rapidly being filled
and the company officers declare
there is no immediate danger of a

of the labor controversy.
This is today's status of the strike,
according to F. E. Connor, receiver
for the company.
"Wherever possible we are giving
returned soldiers and sailors the
preference in filling the jobs left
vacant by the strikers" said Mr..
Connor. "What percentage of the
jobs are now filled l am not able to
say, but it is enough to say that we
are steadily employing men to keep
the system going.

pect, confidently, to continue to op-

COLUMBUS CLARK
HAS FINE WHEAT
COUNTY COMMISSIONER EX-
PECTS As BUSHELS PER
ACRE FROM TWO FIELDS.

What is believed to be the best
wheat shown in Moscow this season
was brought to town by Columbus
Clark, commissioner for the Third
district of Latah county, from his
farm near Juliaetta. The wheat is
on exhibition at the Idaho garage,
on Second street. 1t stands six feet
and four inches high. 1t is of two
varities, Canadian Hybrid and Red
Russian.
s'"Of course this is too much straw"
said Mr.. Clark, "and the entire field
is not that tall, but it is all good
height, well headed and well filled
and / would not give any man five
cents to guarantee me As bushels
per acre from those two fields"
Mr.. Clark has 80 acres of the
Canadian Hybrid and 100 acres of the
Red Russian in the fields from which
these samples were taken. He has
a lot of other wheat, but these two
fields are his best He thinks he
will begin binding in two weeks and
that the crop is Smade" and he will
get at least 45 bushels per acre from
these two fields without more rain.
Mr.. Clark has recently done lot
of travelling by automobile and has
visited many sections of the north
west. He returned few days ago
from a trip to Spokane. Of the
grain crop he said: 81 saw some good
fields of wheat all along the road.
In southern Spokane county and es-
pecially around Spangle, there is
some fine grain, but Latah county
leads all of the districts l have seen
for good fall grain and the country
about Juliaetta has the best grain
| have seen this year. / do not say
this because l own land there, for /
own more land in other places, but
I think all will agree that the Julia
eta district has the best crop of
grain of any section of the north
west this year."
Mr.. Clark thinks he will get some
spring wheat, even without more
rain and that the winter wheat crop
IS out of danger and will give a good
yield without any more rain fall. Of
course severely hot weather will cut
1own the yield of fall wheat, he
thinks, but the greater part of the
crop is out of danger.

C. w. Beardsley has just returned
from southern Alberta, where he
owns considerable land, and reports
that the crops in that section are en-
tirely gone and the Alberta crop will
be almost a tota ! failure. Mr..
Beardsley said: eff man were to
start out from here to buy land and
go entirely around the United States,
he would come back to the good old
Palouse country and buy, if he used
good judgement. The old Palouse
is good enough for me, dry as it is
this year."

| AMERONGEN, Sunday -(By the
Associated Press Former Emper-
or William and his wife are apparent
ly unperturbed by the possibility
that proceedings will be brought by
the entente for the extradition of the
emperor from Holland.
Members of the ex-kaiser's suite
have indicated in conversations with
the correspondent that it was their
opinion that any proceedings from al
lied quarters would be protracted for
many months without any certainty
that The Netherlands government
would consent to hand the former
kaiser over for trial.
They are almost unanimously con-
vinced that they are here for a long
sojurn and are making preparations
accordingly.
Suicides in Germany.
GENEVA.-S Suicides among the
German officers are increasing
alarmingly, especially in Prussia,
where the number Of suicides is %
per cent more than before it became
known that former Emperor William
was to be placed on trial by the allies.
according to Munich newspapers. The
wives of officers are also reported to
be taking their own lives. The in
crease in the number of suicides is
attributed not only to patriotic de-
spair but to the loss of the officers
social position.
