PLAN
WINS ENDORSEMENT

NEW YORK. March 2s.-Will-
lam l.. Saunders. of New York,
life member of the American So
ciety of Civil Engineers and past
president of the American Manu-
facturers' Export Association, to-
day Endorsed the Great Lakes-St.
Lawrence waterway proposal.
Il venture the statement that
there has never been proposed a
PROJECT so simple in its execu-
ton. so sound in its economic
possibilities, and so far-reachinG
in its consequences" he said.
IF you lay a straight-edge upon
the map along the line of the st.
Lawrence River you will see that
it points directly to Liverpool. the
market for most of the grain prod
ucts of the United States.
Furthermore, the record of exper-
fence shows that for every dollar
which the producer in the West
pays to ship his products from
Duluth to Liverpool, more than
40 cents is consumed in the terri
tory between Buffalo and New
York. This expense is due partly
to charges for unloading and re-
loading, commonly known as
breaking bulk, and partly to the
high cost of transportation by rail
and canal.
TT seems. then. that il the st.
Lawrence waterway is dream,
it is a very scientific dream. while
the nightmare. hysteria, and toxic
embIyopia are found only among
its opponents"

Representative Manuel Herrick. OF

Of newspaper stories about his West
ern home which appeared in the
Daily Oklahomsn and the New York
World and later sued these papers
for $4,000 damages each for alleged
libel, is now out Of the local courts
altogether.
Justice Stafford in Circuit Court

Press Publishing Company, publish
ers of the New York World, to dis
miss the proceedings on the ground
that the company could not be sued
In the District OF Columbia. because
no officer Of the corporation resided

PROTESTS PAY CUT
OF d. C.. EMPLOYEES

A resolution protesting against
the cut in wages of the per diem
employees of the District govern
ment and recommending an in
crease for them. was adopted by
the Southeast Citizens Associa-
ton last night. The association
also condemned the action of the
Piney Branch Citizens Association
in declaring that MuzZey's Ameri-
can history was unpatriotic and
Inaccurate, and denounced as I'M
true the charge that the book
took sides on the tariff question.
Col. c. ". Lanham made an ap-
peal in behalf of the Associated
Charities and asked the support
of the southeast citizens. The
association approved the Capper
bill which provides for the pur-
chase of the Patterson tract for
use IN connection with the school.

finished business before the Dis
triet Committee. II will not be taken
up at the committee meeting this
morning. but attention will be
given to other local measures.
Representative, zihlman, OF Mary
land. one of the active members Of
the committee. said the merger
matter is being, held in allegiance
pending its outcome in the Senate
where a bill has been introduced au-
thorizing the companies to merge
and taxing their net earnings 80
per cent from to per cent and IS
per cent when the earnings are more
than Z per cent.
House Committee DIvided.N
In the. House committee questions
of principle have caused a conflict
of opinion. Fifteen members OPP
posed the bill taxing the net earn
ings of the companies and seyaral
amendments have been offered. Uni
versal transfer and powers of the
Utilities Commission are the mooted
questions. So hopeless had the diff
ficulties become that Senator King,
an active. member of the Senate
committee opposed to the tax fea-
ture as confiscaIory. suggested q
Al l.
Senate and House committees. Rep
resentative Zihlman said Senator
King was to make known when he
could arrange such a conference,
but had not been heard from when
the Senate bill was reported.
The fact that Senator Ball. chair.
man Of the District Committee. in
the upper branch of Congress. is ex-
pecting to call up the merger bill
as soon as the treaty debates will
give him the opportunity. is be-
lieved to be responsible. for the lax
interest on the House side.
Opposed to Amendments.
Many members of the House
committee do not believe in the
anne ndment to the bill restricting
the powers of the utilities COM
niSSlOHr AcpTcsenlAllNc Llnl0ldn
said yesterday. They think it in
consistent to empower the commits
sion to fix rates and regulations
and then take from the commission
a degree of these powers. Some Of
the amendments to the bill are be-
lieved by members of the committee
tc nullify the larger purposes. =
think II will require much delibers-
ton to straighten out these mat
tiers, and believe the measure has
become so jammed IT can hardly
reach greatly advanced stage on
the calendar right soon"
Regard. Question as Urgent.
Representative Zihlman said he
was unwilling to discuss the merits
of the imperfect bill, but hoped the
committee would round II into
shape soon as he regarded the mer-
ger question as one of the most ur-
gent affecting the National Capitas
at this time.
Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia.
yesterday said he hoped soon to get
around to the point where he could
study the merger bill in detail In
order to be prepared to vote upon
1t as a member of the District COM
mittee, when II Is called up by
Chairman Ball. He said he had
been so busy on the appropriations
committee and with other matters
that he had given no study at all
to the newly drafted measure.

in the produce business, any more
than it is in other lines, and that the
adage of our daddies, Honesty is the
best policy" still holds good. The
sharp dealer has vanished
The first to put crimp' in the
crooked commission dealer were the
Hood River berry growers of Oregon.
They formed an association and ship
ped their stock to local representa-
tive in each town on his estimate OF
the amount required. They fixed the
retail price themselves. If the local
market couldn't absorb the shipment
the extra quantity was sent on to an
other town.
Butte has at present number OF
commission and jobbing houses that
will compare most favorably with
those of any city in the middle west,
both from the standpoint of financial
and honorable dealing with
the trade. This is the opinion ex-
pressed by retailers of general ex-
perience. This likewise applies to.
jobbers in other lines than fruit and
vegetables.
Nearly all of the 1876 jobbing and
houses in Butte transact
business as far east as Minneapolis,
as far south as Salt Lake and as far
west as Spokane, while a few con-
1uct a business that is international
IN character.

About Butte's Consumption.

The wholesale business of Bufte
includes the handling of large ouan.
titles of high-grade food products
canned and bulk fruits and vegeta-
Dles, nay and grain. Butte consumes
yearly about 200 carloads of oats
100 cars of alfalfa, so cars of wheat
and 80 cars of corn. The flour whole
salers dispose of between $4,000 and
10000 barrels of flour annually.
Fresh and dried meats are also pro
duced in large quantities and dis
posed OF to the local trade or distri-
buted throughout the state.
The honor of having established
the first general store in Butte is ac-
corded, without dispute, to the old
pioneer, Charles Carver, who is still
a resident of the city. He opened
a general supply store on the banks
of the old South Main street gulch
near the present site of Upton street
in 1865.
Another old-time store was that
