CHILEANS WOULD
ALSO MEET COLBY
La Nacion Suggests That He Visit
West Coast Republic.
(By Associated Press)

SANTIAGO, Jan. 8.-The newspaper
La Nacion, commenting. on the visit
of cambridge Colby, American secre-
tary of state, to Brazil and Uruguay,
suggested that It be arranged so he
would visit Chile.
1T is worthy Of notice that the Inn
periahstic tendencies which seem to
dominate the spirit of some North
American public men never appear to
remain IN the minds of public figures
in the United States after they have
travelled among us and thereby OBJ
tanned a fairly exact personal impress
sion of our republics the paper as
serts. TT would seem that voyage to
this continent Of a prominent North
American converts him immediately to
respect and esteem these young repub-
lies"
The paper recalls the visit of Elihu
Root and DR.. Leo S. Rowe, head of
the Pan American Union, "who upon
their return have at all times been
loyal friends of Chile
Every effort to draw closer the ties
with other countries of America on a
basis of just equality is praiseworthy
one" it adds. The voyage Of Mr..
Colby presents an opportunity to do
this with the United States, and we
should not overlook the occasion"

Only Way for Ford TO Gain Seat Is
for Recount TO Give Hin,
Majority.
By "A. q. HUNT.

WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-odds on
Truman II. Newberry retaining his
seat as u. s. senator from Michigan,
as against Henry Ford being awarded
e, are two TO one.
Newberry has two chances of win
ming his fights in the verdict of the
II. s. supreme court on his appeal
from conviction of Waiting election
laws: and In the recount by the SEN
ate committee on elections.
Z Ford's only chance lies in what the
senatorial recount will show. AS New
berry beat Ford on the face of the re-
turns by 5000 votes, and 1900 bal
lots from districts where Newberry
had longest leads have been destroyed,
Ford's chances are narrowed down.
For the committee will accept the
original official count from these dis
tricts.
James o. Muffin, of Detroit, at
torney for Newberry makes this
statement:
III Senator Newberry's conviction is
sustained by the supreme court he
viii resign at once and go to Fort
Leavenworth penitentiary to serve his
sentence"
Newberry was sentenced by Judge
Clarence o. Sessions Of the federal
court in Grand Rapids to the peniten-
tiary for two years. He was also fin
ed $4,000.
According to Senator Spencer,
chairman of the subcommittee in
charge Of the Newberry- Ford investi-
cation, verdict by the supreme curt
that Newberry Is guilty would not
give Ford his seat.
"such a verdict" Senator Spencer
says would settle whether or not
Newberry was guilty of violating cleo
ton laws. The senate then would
drop that part of its inquiry.
But Ford's rights rest on the out

PHILIPPINES TRY
TO SELL OPIUM
Have Thousand Pounds Seized From
Smusslers and Dope Fiends.

MANILA, P. l., Jan. a.-Approxi-
mately 1000 pounds of confiscated
opium which was sent by the bureau
of supply of the Philippine Islands to
the chief of the bureau Of insular af-
fairs at Washington for sale in the
United States more than year ago,
has just been returned here.
Several months after the opium
reached the United States, the chief Of
the bureau of insular affairs sent the
following cablegram to the governor
general:
1.-THE pharmaceutical manufacturers
not make any offer for the
purchase of the nineteen cases of op-
ium. There is an abundant shipment
of Turkish opium New York City
with a more uniform amount of NOR
phine. It is believed that the ship
ment will be complete loss"
In view of this cablegram the opium
was ordered returned to Manila,
where it is now being held by the
bureau of supply.
The publication of an article by an
afternoon vernacular newspaper that
the opium had been distracted from
the cans had been opened by secret
the Pacific and molasses substituted,
brought forth a denial from the bu-
reau of supply. 1t was asserted that
the cans had been opened by sscret
service agents and all of the drug had
been found intact.
The value of opium conffscated dur
ing the last year and now in the hands
of the bureau of supply is said to
amount to several hundred thousand
dollars.

SOUTH DAKOTATO
BUILD POWER DAM
Engineers Report Dam VIII Cost
Twenty Million Dollars.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D.. Jan. s.
South Dakota's hydro electric dam
may be located at any one Of seven
sites along the 275 miles of the Mis-
souri, rivers course from the northern
to the southern border of the state.
This report is made by a corps Of en-
gineers who have investigated the
possibilities of the river.
The problem of locating the dam
promises to be one of the chief ques-
lions before the present legislature.
This decision will be pursuant upon
action of the 1917 legislature enpow-
ering the state to purchase a site and
erect a power plant which was ap-
proved by the voters in 1918. A hy-
dro-electric commission created by
he 1919 legislature reported last
spring.
The sites most favored are those at
Mobridge, abou. thirty miles from the
northern state line. and at the Mule
head farm an equal distance from the
southern border.
1t is estimated that the plant will
cost around s20,000,000.

PROPOSE HANGING
FOR BURGLARS
New York Legislature VIII 30 AsKed
to Enact Death Penalty.
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK. Jan. S.-Legis1ators
In this state served notice during New
York's crime wave that at the next
session they intend introducing meas
ures to provide greater punishment for
highwaymen and burglars.
With daring robberies becoming
every day occurrences, the courts here
quickly decided to mete out maximum
punishment wherever possible and
raised bail to insure keeping criminals
behind bars.
A study of existing laws in various
states shows that in three burglary
is punishable by death and in four
robbery-should the maximum penalty
be applied.
First degree burglary may be pun
ished by death in North Carolina and
Virginia by means of electricity and
in Delaware by hanging. Alabama and
Virginia's laws provide the maximum
of death in robbery cases, while Nevada
specifies death for train robbers, and
Texas for robbery accomplished by
means OF deadly weapons.
Several states provide for life inn
prisonment or for ANY term up to
LAS III eases. ne lie pen
atty thus is possible in Massachusetts,
Florida, Iowa, Ohio, Rhode Island and
South Carolina, while in Maine the law
merely provides ANY term OF years."
making possible to impose a sentence
which virtually means life. New York,
Minnesota, North Dakota and South
Dakota accomplish the same end by
STIMULATING that burglary shall be pun
ished by mot less than ten years"
Other states vary from maximum
punishments of 40 years in Utah and
80 years in New Hampshire to only
seven years in Arkansas. The heaviest
fine possible for the offense is in
Pennsylvania, which provides mot
over 10 years and $4,000"
Robbery may be punished by life
Imprisonment in idaho, Rhode Island,
Texas. Oregon, Utah, Illinois, Massa-
chusetts, Michigtn and Hawaii. Cali
fornia provides for mot less than one
year." The least severe penalty is that
of Connecticut, which stipulates mot
more than seven years." In most states
the maximum varies from 15 to 20
years.
In view Of present conditions, how
ever, bills are being prepared for in
PRODUCTION in several states to in
crease the maximum penalty to death
or life Imprisonment.

HARDINC'S FORMAL
ELECTION Is SET
Electoral College VIII Meet February 9
TO Cast Ballots.
NV Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-while War
rem G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge
were chosen for president and vice
president of the United States in the
November general elections, they have
not yet been officially elected, and will
not be until February 8.
Two important steps remain to be
taken to complete their election. One
the meeting of the electoral college takes
place Monday, while the final step will
be taken on Wednesday, Feb. 9. at a
joint meeting OF the senate and house
OF representatives when the certificates
of the vote of each state are opened in
the presence Of the entire congress and
duly counted.
At the conclusion of this ceremony,
Vice President Marshall win officially
declare Mn Harding and Mr.. Coolidge to
have been elected.
The people, as is well known, did not
vote directly for Mr.. Harding or Mr.
Cox and their running mates in the
November election, but for, electors Of
the various parties. The successful cleo
tors of each state comprise the electoral
college. They are equal In number to
the senators and representatives from
each state in congress, provided by the
constitution. They are required by law
to meet in their respective state CAPT.
tails on the second Monday in JanrSHy
after the presidential election to cast
their votes for president and vice presi
dent in accordance of the voters who
elected them.
The electoral college therefore will be
in session in the 4S state capitals on
Monday. The electors organize by elect
ing one of their numbers as chairman
and choosing a secretary. If any of the
electors have died since the November
election. the remaining electors of the
state may select some one to I'LL the va
cancy. After organization the balloting
begins first for president and then for
vice president on separate ballots. Each
elector votes for the candidate for whom
he was elected to vote. When the ballots
are counted the certificates are prepared
and duly signed in each state. One is
sent to the judge of the United States
district court of the electors state; one
is sent by mail and another by messen-
ger, usually by one of the electors select
ed for the purpose. to the president OF
the United States senate. These certif1-
Gates in accordance with the constitu-
ton, will be opened by the vice president
acting as president of the senate in the
presence OF congress. This final ceremony
of the election will take place in the
chamber of the house of representatives
on Wednesday, Feb. 8. In a close presi-
Dental race. such as that between Tilden
and Hayes, the counting Of these returns
becomes a serious, matter and attracts
wide attention.

NEWBERRY APPEARS LIKELY TO
RETAIN HIS SEAT In SENATE

come Of the senate recount and on
that alone.
SHOULD the supreme court affirm
Newberry's conviction, even a recount
showing he received a majority in
the election would not help him.
Newberry and the IS others con-
victed with him are represented by
Charles Evans Hughes a.ld Martin w.
Littleton, both of New York, and
Judge Murfin.
The recent recount began under the
supervision of the sergeant at -arms
Of the senate January 4. Out of some
100000 ballots cast, about $4,000 ball
lots have been brought to Washing
ton; the remainder have disappeared.
Counting will take till about Febru-
airy 1.
AS senate leaders plan II, even IL
Newberry Is convicted his seat will
be saved to the Republicans unless
the recount gives Ford a clear ma
tority, for Alex Groesbeck on taking
office as governor of Michigan would
appoint Republican as senator.
Among the 16 convicted with New
berry were:
Paul T. King, federal referee in
bankruptcy, Detroit
Allan A. Templeton, millionaire
manufacturer and former president of
the Detroit board OF commerce.
Frederick Cody. politician and broth
er Of Detroit's superintendent OF
schools.
They received the same sentence as
Newberry. King was executive sec
rotary OF the campaign and Temple
ton general chairman.
John Newberry, brother OF the SEN
ator. was fined $4,000.
The Ford Newberry contest in. 1918
was the most vigorous in Michigan's
history.
After Newberry was awarded the
victory, the cry of fraud went UP.
The grand jury convened in Grand
Rapids on oct. %, 1919, and began it's
investigation. 1t promptly indicted
Newberry and 1874 others.
The indictment on which Newberry
and the others were tried charged
conspiracy to spend or cause TO be
spent more money than the state law
permitted Newberry TO spend"
The sum allowed by law, ii was
claimed, wass $3.50.
The indictment charged, however,
that $4,000 was spent in electing the
senator.
The defense admitted in excess of
$3.50 was paid out, but by friends
of the senator and without his sane
ton. This, the defense alleged. was
legal.

new YEAR OPENS
WITH GOOD TRADE
Stocks and Bonds Generally Denote
Better Trend.
(By Associates Press)

NEW YORK, jan S.--A lively and
diversified stock market at substan-
tally higher prices, a fair demand
for bonds and affiliated securities
also at appreciable advances and
other signs of turn for the better
attended the first week of the new
year in the financial world.
There was no perceptible easement
of rates for money and the supply Of
| avaible funds was again limited de-
spite reported heavy receipts from in
terror sources. The best Judgment Is
that the money market will show no
pronounced change until the latter
part of the current month. Authori-
tative surveys and forecasts of the
new year. including the views of Gov
ernor Harding of the federal reserve
board, sounded an optimistic note in
| the main, but these were tempered by
illusions 30 the labor market, wage
reductions and further curtaiiment OF
various enterprises.
Bankers urged the need OF economy
and thrift, but disagreed with these
observers who predicted a decade of,
downward commodity prices, indefi-
mite suspension of dividends, and
more serious disturbance to domestic
commerce and related branches OF
manufacture. Foreign trade condi-
tons, It is conceded. are becoming ia
creasingly complex and hazardous by
reason of the delay in stabiIizing in
ternational remittances. Recent bank
failures in England, Spain and Scan
dinavian countries and Mexico are be-
lieved to have resulted mainly from
these onerous conditions.
Leading financial interests here now
have under Amusement an unusual
number of foreign undertakings and
their consummation would automati-
cally relieve the prolonged strain on
international credits. Few of these
PROJECTS are likely to enter the stage
of completion, however, until home re-
quirements and the domestic invest
ment situation as whole emerge from
their present obscurity.
