w. J. Rider, Benton City. has dis

While he was hiking In the Rat
tlesnake hills last May he discov-
cred a white, chalky substance jut-
ting out of a slope. He dug up q
sample and sent it to Washington
State college for analysis.
Scientists there said it was
"pumicite," a lava froth deposited
by an erupting volcano many years
ago. They said that the mineral
was used in the manufacture of
soap.
Mr.. Rider wrote to Olympia for
a lease on the area containing the
deposit and sent a sample to the
Western Soap company, Spokane,
which replied with an order for a
ton of the pumicite.
When terms of the lease from
the state were completed last week.
Rider sent his first shipment to the
Western Soap company, followed
by another ton a few days later
and an order for five tons more.
The soap company is paying a cent

UI.-EEELING THIS TIBIE
In the matter of the organization
Of the House the Republic minor
itv Of its membership does nos sig
nifv. It will be dissatisfied aIyw y.
ONLY the overwhelming Democta e
majority counts at present.
The House really is run by G. e
of the majority high moguls:
1. The speaker, whose office goo =
ally is rated as second in national inn
portance to the Presidents.
2. The Houses majority floor lead
er.
3. The chairman of the rules COM
mittee, which shapes legislation.
When there is a vacancy in first
place No. expects to be promoted in
to it; No. 3 into No. rs place; then a
certain amount of competition is per-
Missile for the craftsmanship of the
rules committee.
This rule of succession is not always
followed, but it never is broken with
out a deal of ill-feeling.
This time ill-feeling promises to be
Eitterer than usual.
PREVIOUS LINEUP
The last congressional session open
ed with Joseph w Byrns of Tonnes
see in the speakers chair; with VIII
liam B. Bankhead of Alabama as lead
er; with John j. OConnor of New
York as rules committee chairman.
Bankhead had a long illness imme-
diately afterward
Congressman Edward T. Taylor OF
Colorado, very old Democratic mem
Der. acted as his understudy. Taylor
is old in years, as well as IN point OF
service; he did not want the leader
ship permanently; O'Connor WASH
jealous of him.
But toward the end of the session
Byrns died.
Bankhead is recognized as heir to
the speakership; his health is better
and he is equal to it. There is no dis
pute as to his title.

ideas Of a good many members. There
is also possibility that when the en-
tire liquor question gets under debate
in the House and Senate that facts
and figures will be brought out which
may change the minds of some of the
members who now frankly favor the
county control plan over any other, it
is agreed. But at the present time,
most observers believe the sentiment
in both houses is decidedly in favor
of county control.
Commission For State Plan.
The prevailing belief, however is
that the liquor commission is going to
recommend State liquor control rath-
er than county control, or at least q
modification of the present plan in
which the State would cooperate with
the counties in establishing liquor
stores, even though all Of the revenue
and most of the control should be left
in the counties. Some of those who
have been keeping their ears to the
ground. believe the liquor commission
will recommend the establishment of
a State Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board with uniform State regulations,
which would advise with and work
through county ABC boards, in order
to insure uniform procedure in the
operation of liquor stores throughout
the State and to prevent inter-county
competition for the liquor trade. A
good many members ioelieve this sys-
tenn is advisable and that it would
help rather than hurt the counties,
provided the revenue from the sale Of
liquor is left in the counties.
Drys Big Factor.
The drys in both houses, however,
are expected to oppose any and all
liquor control plans which may be
presented-and there are still a num-
Der of drys in both houses, though re-
garded as decidedly in the minority
this time. It is already being pointed
out that in the event deadlock
should develop between those favor
ing State control and those wanting
county control, that the drys might
hold the balance fpower and make
impossible for either group to get
enough votes to enact a kill The be-
lief, however, is that the drys will con
tinue to vote dry and not switch to
any other position. It is also believed
that the wet forces will make a strong
effort to get together and to dispose
of the entire liquor question as quick
ly as possible, since no one wants a
long drawn out fight over the liquor
issue in this coming session.

ROOSEVELT MIGHT
Be 0vER-ENTHUSED
Threatened With Grave
Error in Attitude on Ar
gentine Livestock
BY CHARLES p. STEWART
Central Press Staff Writer

Washington, Dec. u. President
Roosevelt's South American trip has
been wonderfully good thing.
All the same, it is to be borne in
mind that the people of our northern
continent know rather less of their
southern continental neighbors and
their countries than they do of China
for exa1aple We cannot learn over
night. Sometimes I think that a fleet
ing visit leaves a tourist with less &C
curate information concerning a part
of the world to which he has given
the merest Once-over than he had be-
fore. He comes away .elieving that
he knows what's what, which he
doesn't in all probability
Mr.. Roosevelt's promise to work for
q relaxation of Yankee quarantine
regulations against Argentine live
stock suggests that the White House
tenant has fallen into one OF these err
rors, due to the drawing of conclus-
ions upon the basis os ail INSULT
cheney of facts.
The Presidents impression, from
what he was told at Buenos Aires,
evidently is that Argentine CRITTERS"
are Disseminated against (indepen-
IDENTIFY of tariff imposts) upon the
ground that they suffer from diseases
to which they are not subject at all.
This is a supposed injustice which he
pledges himself to do his best to cor
rect.
4 PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
Now, at one time I ran a farm in

long as my money held out.
1 bought 5000 pesos worth of hogs.
Bringing them two or three hun
dred miles by rail to my nearest sta
ton, l still had couple Of miles to
drive them to my corral. BY the time
they arrived there most of them were
so exhausted that they fell flat down
en- the clover and few of them ever
got up.
I consulted veterinary surgeon
from the nearby town of San Nicholas
The expert was puzzled. "Of course
he said, they have aftosa (foot-and-
mouth diseased" AS if aftosa were no
worse than a cold in the head.
but" he added, "they have kind
of peste, too. that don't under
stand"
CHOLERA:
myself knew that the porkers had
a peste, did not have to have dag
nostician to tell me that. So travel
ed down to Buenos Aires to see the
Rural society, the last word on every
Argentine subject, pastoral and agri-
cultural.

boss vet obviously your pigs have

but Argentine pigs" said I, don t

member $4,000 year. The third mem
Der of the commission is the State
commissions of labor, who is an elect
ed State officer and will hence serve
on the new commission without adj
ditional pay
It is expected that the attention of
those whose mouths have been water
ing for one OF the thirty or more ap-
pointive jobs which Mr. Hoey already
has the power to fill and which are
already occupied, will now be turned
to these new jobs. 1t is also expected
that since the new commission will
need from q score to a hundred or
more clerks, stenographers, account
ants and so forth, that it will make it
possible for Mr.. Hoey to help many
job seekers get jobs who otherwise
might not be able to get to the pie
counter.
Although all of the employees of the
new commission must eventually pass
civil service examinations before get
ting permanent jobs, temporary en-
ployers may be appointed for not
more than six months Within that
period they may take the civil service
examinations required and if they
pass, will be assured of having perma-
nent JOS.
Accordingly, the enactment of this
law is regarded as helping Mr.. Hoey
by giving him more patronage to dis
pense II is also regarded as a de-
finite help to present holders Of APP
pointive offices, since it is expected
20 decrease the demand upon Mr..
Hoey TO make changes in these jobs.
Still another advantage of the situa-
ton is that the salaries of the two
commission members and of all the
employees will be paid from Federal
funds rather than from State funds.

have liquor stores going to fight to re-
tain the county control system, but
that most of the counties which want
liquor stores also prefer the county
system to any State control plan, even
if the revenue should be left in the
counties under any proposed State
control set-up. The counties which
have had liquor stores under county
control have made quite a success of
the plan and for the most part have
greatly increased the revenue of the
counties with the profits from the Ii
quor stores, most observers agree. The
result is that most of the dry counties
adjoining those which have liquor
stores are now anxious to have liquor
stores.

port to Re submitted soon by the State
