Wrangle Over President's
Visit Reaches Capital,
EXPECTED STATE COMMITTEE
Governor Will Ssrelr Go to Tacema-
Carriagre "Will Be Imported lor
Vue of Gaestx in Drive
All oat the City.
OLYMPXA, Wash., May 11 (Special.)
The dispatches in yesterday's Oregonian
from Seattle contained the first intima
tion to Olympla people that the Legis
lative committee appointed to meet the
President -would not come to Olympla, and
that the members of the committee felt
that they had intentionally been ignuored
by Governor McBride.
Governor McBride is not in the city, but
the local committee with whom he has
been working in the matter of preparing
for the President's reception states that
all arrangements have been carried on
with the understanding that the Legis
lative committee is to be here. At the
Governor's office It is stated that the
chairmen of both House and Senate com
mittees, Speaker Hare and President J. J.
Smith, had informed the Governor that
the committees would meet the President
in Olympla. It is further stated that the
Governor has conferred with Mr. Smith
and Mr. Hare as to some of the arrange
ments to be made.
If the committee expects to go to Ta
coma on the understanding that the Gov
ernor will not be there, they will be dis
appointed. It Is stated in the office of the
Governor that Governor McBride has re
ceived an invitation from the committees
in charge at Tacoma to participate in the
reception at that city, and has accepted
the invitation.
In Olympla the members of the Legis
lative committee, if present, will be in
vited to seats on the platform during the
President's address and to the informal re
ception to be held in the Governor's office.
As to the drive around the city, Olympla
is handicapped by possessing only four
carriages. These are not nearly enough to
entertain even the Presidential party. The
local committee Is endeavoring to hire
carriages In Seattle, and It Is planned to
bring them over on the steamer chartered
to bring the National Guard companies.
In this way the state pays part of the
expense, as the cost of transporting the
troops will not be added to by the trans
portation of the carriages. The state,
however, has no funds available for aid
ing Olympla In any other way In the mat
ter of expenses, and it was not considered
likely that the Legislative committee
would expect a small city like Olympla to
transport carriages here that they might
participate in the drive given the Presi
dential party, particularly after the Leg
islature had refund to appropriate funds
for the use of the committee in meeting
the President.
It is not likely that carriages will be
provided for any persons other than those
comprising the President's party. The
local committee concedes that it will be
no more than proper for the Governor and
Mayor C J. Lord to occupy seats In the
President's carriage. A carriage may be
provided for the four ex-Governors who
are expected to be- present.
The stay of the President in Olympla Is
so short and the reception is so far from
belnsr a formal st-tte function that no one
outside of Olympla citizens and the Gover
nor have participated in making the ar
rangements for his T'eceptlon here.

to a Chinese Merchant.
BOISE, Idaho, May 14. At noon today

highwayman a mile and a half beyond

compelled at the point of a rifle to turn
over their valuables and the registered
mail sack was rifled. The lone highway
man then retreated to the hills and dis
appeared. The stage had reached the mouth of
Muller Gulch, when the highwayman
stepped from the brush with a rifle in his
hands and commanded the driver to stop.
Charles Sullivan, the driver, was ordered
to throw out all the mall sacks. The
highwayman quickly ripped open tne reg
istered sack and pocketed the contents.

LAW GRADUATES FLURRIED.
Error Would Have Made Them Pnss
an Examination.
OL.YMPIA. Wash., May 14. (Special.)
An odd error in transcribing one of the
acts ot the last Legislature caused con
sternation for two days In the law depart
ment of the State University, and also
caused the dean of the law department to
make a special trip to Olympla tcday.
The last Legislature passed a bill which
among other things provided that gradu
ates of the State Law School would be
admitted to the bar without examination.
Governor McBride vetoed section 2 of the
bill relating to the admission of attorneys
from other states.
A few days ago the Clerk of the Supreme
Court obtained a copy of the bill, but
the typewriter put in an extra section,
and it appeared thereby that the Governor
had vetoed the provision admitting the
law school graduates.
The error created a sensation as well as
surprise at the law school, as the regu
lar examination of applicants to the bar
began here today, and the graduating
class had made no preparations to at
tend. The dean of the law school came
down to persuade the Supreme Court to
give a special examination to the stu
dents, and discovered the error while look
ing over the enrolled copy of the bill.
The students will be admitted without
examination.

RATES FOR SUGAR CROP
Traffic Officials Will Try to Minimize
Competition.
CHICAGO. May 14. Traffic officials of
railroads reaching the Atlantic, Gulf and
Pacific Coast ports are meeting In Chi
cago to fix rates for the movement of the
season's sugar crop. It Is stated that an
effort Is being made to adjust the rates
on sugar so that the competition of the
product from Cuba and Hawaii jwlll be
minimized. If the plan succeeds, the Im
port rates on sugar, and the proportion of
the rates charged for the inland haul, will
be so adjusted that the sugar Industries
of the United States will be fully pro
tected. Initiative In the matter Is said
to have been taken by the . Santa Fe,
backed strongly by the Southern Pacific
Both lines have large and growing beet-
sugar plantations and refineries along their
roads. When the sugar crop begins to
move, rates have always become demoral
ized because of contending Industries. The
Cuban sugar comes In by the way of New
York and the Gulf ports, -the Hawaiian
sugar by San Francisco to compete with
tne sugar from .Louisiana and the South,
and lately the sugar from the new and
rapidly growing sugar-beet fields of the
Middle West and the Southwest.
In order to market the product of these
various sections, the railroads serving
them have made low rates, and In order
to get the foreign tonnage they have also
made low divisions on the through im
port rates. In many ca3fs the " inland
proportion of the import rates have been
such as to nullify the . effect of the pro
tective tariff and permit foreign sugar to
compete on even terms with the home
product.

tically has secured the whole right of way
necessary for the connection.
The connecting line will "be three and
one-third miles long and will enable the

Use Judgment Ahont Mosquitoes.
Aberdeen Bulletin.
The malarla-Innoculatlng mosquito has
mottled wings and stands on Its head
when at rest, which Is all the more curi
ous In view of the fact that It Is only
JJie female tHat bites, and standing on
the head Is not supposed to be a comfort
able position to maintain. When you see
a mosquito observe its attitude. If it
stands on all fours, as becomes a well
mannered quadruped, do not kill It. It Is
the canary of its family and will sing
you to sleep If you will let It, but if it
evinces an Inclination to buck, put Its
head between Its fore feet and wave its
hind legs In the air. .kill It. It has ma
laria and will communicate It to you un
less you keep It the other side of close
fitting wire netting at doors and windows.

Ring worm and. dandruff are somewhat
j similar In their origin; each Is caused by
l a parasite. The germ that causes dandruff
f digs to the root of the hair, and saps Its
vitalitY. causing falling hair. and. finally.
, baldness. "Without dandruff there would
never oe Baldness, and to cure dandruff it
is necessary to kill the germ. There has
been no hair preparation that would do
this until the discovery of Newhro's Herpl
clde, which positively kills the dandruff
germ, allays Itching Instantly and makes
hair glossy and soft as silk. At all drug
