To make the fixture more attrac-

After watching the football for
about half an hour a bucolic-looking
gentleman, who had been giving
vent to frequent snorts Of disgust,
made his way to the gate and indig-

HOUSER SAYS CHARGE FALSE
Grand Jury Accusations Are Declared
Ridiculous.

Portland. ore-M. Ii. Houser de-
clared there was no basis whatever
fer the allegations made by the Spo'
kane grand jury. He said.
The allegations made by the fed.
eral grand jury at Spokane are un-
true. The whole thing is misstate-
ment and distortion of facts. The
charges ure ridiculous and absurd and
they cannot get figures to substantiste
them. They simply don't know what
they are talking about
THE average price paid 10 the farm.
er for hard wheat was far above what
the grand jury claimed, and wheat
was not sold to the mills at the prices
alleged. Had the mills paid such
prices as charged they would have
bad to sell their flour at over SIG
barrel, whereas the flour price has
averaged under s12 barrel
II have had absolutely nothing to
do with the management of any of
these concerns. Notwithstanding what
the grand jary may say to the con-
trary. If were loose from the grain
corporation and anxious to collect a
few filthy dollars, l would not put In

IN Old KENTUCKY

Lieutenant Governor Ballard took
matters in lis own hands in the State
Senate at Frankfort on Wednesday, af-
ter trying session, and ruled that the
Senate stood automatically adjourned,
though Republican Leader Brock made
strenuous objections. Senator Brock is
a Regent of the Eastern Normal
school at Richmond.
Gov. Ballard referred sarcastically
to Senator Brock as his Boss, 1t
has been apparent for some time that
Gov. Ballard was getting more ON
patiently with the dictation of the Re-
publican leader and they clashed
sharply over Mr.. Billiards. custom of
referring to the opinion of Clerk w.
3. O'Connell, Democrat, on matters
of parliamentary procedure.
1t is a well-known fact that Bal
lard and Brock are Numerically OPP
posed on the question of taxing coal,
the former favoring such tax, while
the. mountain members would give UP
almost everything before they would
permit the finger of taxation to touch
this mineral. Further developments
are awaited with interest, as both are
determined men.
Phe good roads bill, as agreed on by
the administration forces, left many
sections of Kentucky practically "hold-
ing the bag, and unprotected. Demo-
Gratis refused to pass with Sd amend
ments in a single morning, without
giving it due consideration, but it was
railroaded through the House, and
then put up to Senate for some de-
lberative action.
The inevitable kicks will follow
from communities and sections which
did not get what they expected will
surely be laid at the door of the adj
ministration and the Republican ma
jority in the House, which passed a
measure affecting generations of Ken
tuckians to come, and involving the
expenditure of millions of dollars an
nually, without even having the mat
ter printed ard laid on the desks of
the members.

the legislature was the practically
unanimous passage by the House Of
Representative J. Wood Vancc's bill,
levying an additional tax of fifty
cents gallon on whisky now in bond
in Kentucky, all Of the money to so

is young Democrat from Barren
county, who has represented that dis
in the House since 1916 estimates that
his bill, which refers to double stamp
ed whisky. will yield in time 10000
600 to the state. He made an earnest
fight for the adoption of his bill, got
the support Of the Governor, had the
rules suspended, and its passage
seems matter of course.
