Prune men from all parts of the

iastic the prune men entering heart

Interesting report on the new Date

In his talk this morning he traced
the origin ot the prune from Its first

development oy various growers par
ticularly Mr. Coatcs. He stated that
he had Investigated the prune from
all angles and had found It very suit
able for this section. In his belief
It will grow any place that Italian or

The wood of the tree is better, the
tree, is less subject to damage be
cause of severe weather, it blooms a
little earlier than the French variety
and ripens sooner.
Altogether, Mr. .Armstrong states,
the prune Is very suitable for this vi
cinity. In discussing the matter of
reversion, Mr. Armstrong stated that
some Instances of this have been not
ed but that they are not frequent In
the original stock. Some nursery-

.V. C. HAYLEY SPEAKS
ON ACTIVITIES OF CONGRESS
AD
Instructive ' and Entertaining
thusiastic Audience at Court House Last Night
Democratic War Record Assailed.
A very Instructive and entertain
ing lecture was delivered last night
at the court house, by Congress
men W. C.'Hawley, who la touring
his congressional district ln his own
behalf and in behalf ot the republi
can party. The audience filled the
court room comfortably and all were
pleased with the matters presented
by Mr. Hawloy.
The lecture was preceded by a
dinner at the I'mpqua Hotel at
which time a general discussion of
the political situation was held.
Those present at this meeting were
A. C. Seeley, A. C. Marsters, V. C:
Huwley, Dinger Hermann, F. W.

The meeting at the court house
was opened by several selections
played oy the Helnline Conservatory
Orchestra, directed by Mrs. A. J.
Young. Two vocal numbers by Mrs.
C. A. Brand were well received and
were very pleasing.
Mr. Hawloy tn hla address dealt
with the activities of congress dur
ing the democratic and republican
administrations. The war . record
4al tha democratic party was especial
ly-attacked and the alleged waste
and extravagance of conducting the
war exposed.. Great laxity In plac
ing contracts existed, the audience
was told and great amounts or
money were literally thrown away
ny inefficient departments and
bureaus.
During the war the government
provided aevon dankets for each
horse, five halters for each animal
and two branding Irons for each
the speaker slated. On account of the
Inefficiency of the democratic
government agencies no cancellation
clauses were in the contracts con
sequently tho contracts were not
subject to cancellation at the close
of the war and as a result the great
er bulk of the ships that were or
dered and the greater portion or the
ammunition were delivered after the
close of the war. One billion dol
lars was expended for airplanes and
not one bombing plane waa used at
the front. All of which was done
before a republican congress go'
control and as a result, billions up
on billions ot indebtedness was heap
ed upon the government when the
republican congress or 1918 obtain
ed control of the house and took
charge and stopped the wsste and
extravagance and proceeded to
re -
duco
the extravagant expenditures
and placed the government upon
normal, pre-war basis.
In regard to the recent reduction
of expenditures and the bisecting ot
thsi cost of running the United
States government within two years,
Mr. Hawley said: "The republican
administration has reduced the cost
of running the government from
over six billion for the current
fiscal year ending June 31), 1923.
"The way to reduce taxation Is to
reduce expenditure, and we reduced
the expenditure of the government
during the past two years of Presi
dent Wilson's sdnilnlstration by ap
proximately ill.OoQ, 000,0110 less than
the estimates demanded, and dur
ing the four years that the republi
can parly has b-en In control of the
house of representatives we have re
duced expenditures 14.250.000.000
below the estinintes. For 1822 alone
we reduced the taxes IX'iO, 000,000.
All lexltlmate sctlvltles of the
government are adequately provided
for. We ge to the country upon a

Mr. Hawley.gave a detailed ex
planation, of the Fordney protective
tariff act, and ita purpose and the
results already obtained under it.
He explained that the tariff waa to
protect home Industry and bring
foreign products manufactured . by
cheap labor up to a price level with
tne home manuiacured product. He
explained that the Fordney art did
not demand as high a tariff rate
aa preceding acts and that this prov
ed the soundness of a protective
policy. Former tariff acta have sup
ported homo Industries to such an
extent that they no longer need aa
high a protective rate as formerly
was needed.
The Important building materials
are on the free list such aa Portland
and other cements, structural Iron
and steel and shingles and lumber
because the industries behind them
have grown to such an extent under
protective tariff as to be able to
cope with the competition ot the
world at present.
Mr. Hawley ridiculed the preten
sions and campaign promises ot
Wslter Pierce aa a tax reformer. In
view of his tax-voting record ln the
legislature and urged the reelection
ot Governor Olcott
- "The state Institutions ars very
well managed," he said, "aad ths
election ot a democrat for governor
would necessarily make changes and
weaken the Institutions."
MRS. HAZEL M'NALLY IS
FREE ON MURDER CHARGE
(By Associated Press)
HAMMOND, lnd., Oct 20. Mrs.
Haiel McNally, declared by her 64-year-old
husband to be the mother ot
twins waa freed of a charge of mur
der this afternoon, whet Judge Henry
C. Cleveland ruled tha state had fail
ed to prove ths infants sre not still
alive. The 26-year-old wife, who had
grinned and giggled through four days
of the preliminary hearing while wit
leases attempted to fasten on ber
the charge of double niuroV-r, col
lapsed and fell fainting to the floor
aa the cheera and applause ot 150

ears.
By a strange paradox of the law ths
defense which maintained the twins

ber were but inanimate creations of
china and snwduat dressed In baby
clothes won Its victory because the
iBiHte was unable to prove that the
'niystery babies were not at the pres-
ent moment riving, breathing human
beings wilb actual fiesh and blood.
The missing corpus delicti law
yer's phraseology for the "body of ths
crime" proved a stumbling block to
the state and because of It the mys

they ever existed, whether they were
only dressed up dolls or whether, aa
the state contended, they were first
real babies and then dolls remains
unsolved.
