BRANDS THEM AS COWARDS
Townsend's Xerv Stiffens Spines of
Men Scared by Lobbyists.
OREGON'IAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Feb. 23. It Is seldom that a man
In Congress has the temerity to rise In
his place and brand as cowards a group
of his colleagues who allow themselves
to be influenced to vote contrary to their
Judgment by aome lobbyist employed by
some special labor organization. But
Representative Ttfwnsend. of Michigan,
is a man with the nerve, and he did this
very thing when the House was consid
ering the bill compelling railroads to
standardize the safety appliances on
freight cars. N
The bill, which was Indorsed by the
President, the Interstate Commerce
Commission and many of the organiza
tions of railway employes whose lives
largely depend upon the proper equip
ment of cars, was being assailed by a
number of Intelligent Congressmen, who
had been Induced to oppose it by one
' H. H. Fuller, a labor lobbyist, also sup
posed to have leanings towards the In
terests of the railways themselves. The
bill was so notoriously and manifestly
Just and 'proper that objections to it
were necessarily weak and unreasonable.
After listening to several such speeches,
Mr. Townsend took the floor and, allud
ing to Fuller and his companions, said:
"If these gentlemen are as active in
presenting facts- to the Commission as
they are In trying to prejudice this Con
gress and to create cowards who will not
dare to act upon what their Judgment
dictates to be In the best Interests of
the country-
le country .-Umlvent and no securities will be sacri
He got no farther; applause interruptfTr MVJ- 1
ed. and the debate closed. In face of
what Mr. Townsend had boldly said,
many of the branded "cowards' were
forced to change front. Incidentally
Mr. Townsend's speech was all that
saved the bill from defeat. Prior to the
time he spoke It was evident the bill
would be voted down.
CROWN PRINCE MAY COME
Kinperor 'William's Son Likely to

BERLIN, Fob. 23. Frederick William,
the Crown Prince, has been talking for
several months of the possibility of vis

WINS BY STUBBORNNESS
Sinoot Gets Utah Excepted From
Residence Law for Dry Farms.
OFJ3GOXIAN TBW3 BUREAU, Wash-
Ington, Feb. 22. Senator Reed Smoot of
Utah has the reputation of being the
most stubborn man in Congress, and he
deserves the reputation. Mr. Smoot, in
his legislative work, proceeds on the
theory that. If you insist upon a thing
and make no concessions to the oppo
sition, you are very likely to get what
you are after. That was the manner in
which Mr. Smoot dealt with the 330-acre
dry farm homestead bill, and through
his stubbornness he made five of his col
leagues on the conference committee
come to his terms.
Mr. Smoot, who was one of the au
thors of the dry farm bill, maintained
that a dry farm homestead law, to be
of benefit to his state, should permit
the tiomsteader to reside in town or in
the vicinity of his land, but not upoa the
land entered. He maintained that In a
large part of the dry area of Utah it
would be impossible to maintain homes
on 320-acre homesteads, though the land
itself, under dry farming methods, could
be made to produce crops. He con
tended that, while there was sufficient
moisture in the soil, there was no water
fit for domestic purposes; hence it would
be impossible to live on such land.
The House would not stand for this
proposition; so the House conferees re
sented to the limitation of non-resident
Mr. Smoot was obdurate. Finally he con
sented to the limitation of onon-resident
homesteads to his own state, which was
all he really wanted In the first place,
and finally after two months of fruitless
wrangling the conference committee
reached an agreement, but it agreed on
the Smoot proposition. So much for the
stubbornness of the Mormon Senator.
SILENT DfJ LUMBER GUTY
CONGRESSMEN REFUSE TO COM
MIT THEMSELVES.
Lumbermen Lobby Hard to Retain
Present Duty, but Only Lum
ber States Pledged.
OREGON'IAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. 23. Representatives of the
lumber manufacturers of all parts of the
United States have been busy in Wash
ington for the past two weeks, trying
quietly to influence sentiment in favor of
the retention of the duty on lumber. In
reality, these lumbermen constitute a
lobby, hut they are working along legiti
mate lines, interviewing Congressmen in
dividually and collectively In the hope of
convincing them that the lumber duty
is not unjust and should be retained.
Up to the present time, however, the
lumbermen have met with very little en
couragement. Only a few nights ago
they gave a big banquet to 150 Congress
men for the ostensible purpose of pro
moting their business before Congress.
But during the whole evening only one
Congressman consented to make a speech
and he was absolutely noncommittal on
the subject of the tariff on lumber. This
same attitude has generally been main
tained by members who have been inter
viewed at various times. Congressmen,
at this early day, absolutely refuse to
commit themselves that Is. all but those
from the big lumber-producing states,
who are outspoken In the advocacy of the
lumber tariff.
It is the present purpose of the lumber
manufacturers to retain rejresentatives
in Washington throughout the special
session of Congress or until the lumber
schedule has been finally agreed upon.

Third Congress on Arid Lands
Opens at Cheyenne.
SNOW GREETS DELEGATES
Over Thousand Enthusiasts on
Hand to Hear Addresses by Ex
perts From All Sections of
Country and Australia.
CHEYENNE, Wyo., Feb. 23 With
more than 600 delegates present and
with hundreds more to arrive on be
lated and snowbound trains, the third
Trans-Missouri Dry Farming Congress
opened its sessions at the Capital Ave
nue Theater here this morning. The
sessions will continue three days and
it is confidently expected that during
that time-work of the utmost import
ance and benefit to the semi-arid re
gions of the country will be accom
plished. A blanket of snow more than a foot
deep greeted "the delegates arriving in
Cheyenne, as Nature's assurance that
"dry farming" was partly a misnomer
in Wyoming. The streets of Cheyenne
are elaborately decorated In honor of
the visitors, and a programme of enter
tainment for every evening of the three
days' sessions has been-arranged.
Today's programme included an ad
dress by Governor B. B. Brooks, of
Wyoming, president of the congress
and the reading of papers by state dele
gales on various phases and problems
of dry farming.
Governor ' Welcomes Delegates.
F. C. Bowman, of Boise. Idaho, chair
man of the executive committee, called
the Congress to order. After an invoca
tion by Rev. George C. Rafter, of Chey
enne. Governor B. B. Brooks, of Wyo
ming, president of the congress, deliv
ered an address of welcome.
Welcoming addresses were also made
by Mayor P. S3. Cook, of Cheyenne, and
Thomas Haney, president - of the Chey
enne Industrial Club.

South Dakota, responded to the welcom
ing addresses in behalf of the delegates.

with calling of the roll of the states rep
resented and a number of short address
es were delivered by delegates represent
ing Western States.
The time and place of holding the next
congress and the proposition to change
the name of the congress are subject to
much animated discussion.
J. T. Burns, secretary of the congress,
stated today that here 'are now 1276
members of the congress and that the
present session will probably result in
an Increase of 500 more.
Billings Well Represented.
The largest delegation thus far to ar
rive is from Billings, Mont., which is
making a strong fight for the next con
gress. It is also likely that the next
congress will be held In the late Summer
or early Fall on account of the chances
of bad weather and the difficulty of se
curing representative exhibit of dry
farming crops when sessions are held at
the time of year at present in vogue.
Telegrams and letters from friends of
the congress in various parts of the
country were read at the afternoon ses
sion. The messages were from President
Roosevelt and Ambassador Bryce, of
Great Britain; from the Governors of a
number of Western States, including
Governor Norrls, of Montana, and from
many citizens.
Governor Shafroth, of Colorado, made
an Informal address. He spoke at consid
erable length on the recent passapre of the
Mondell 320-acre homestead bill and
warmly commended It as being certain to
stimulate the settlement of Colorado
lands above the ditch. .He said the Mon
dell bill would end the hesitancy on the
part of the newcomer to take up semi
arid lands for homesteads.
Senator James H. McColl. of Australia,
addressed tho congress on "The Progress
of Dry Farming In Australia." J. A.
Martin, of El Paso, was also a speaker.

ion of Canada.

but the law only set aside 5 per cent of

of this shortage, the Secretary of the

Supreme Court Decides New
York Central Rebated.
OVER $130,000 INVOLVED
Railroad Declared in Defense That
Other Roads . Forced It Into
Agreement, but Court Holds
Excuse to Be Invalid.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23. The verdict
of the United States Circuit Court for
the Southern District of New York,
imposing a fine of $108,000 upon the
New York Central Railroad Company
on the charge of granting rebates to
the American Sugar Company, was to
day affirmed by the United States Su
preme Court.
The rebates to the American Sugar
Refining Company were given on ship
ments of sugar In 1903 from New York
to Cleveland and Detroit. Six offenses
were charged and fines of $18,000 each
were Imposed by the trial court.
The Government prosecuted under
the Interstate Commerce and Elkins
laws. Between New York and Cleve
land the railroads published tariffs
calling for a charge of 21 cents per
100 pounds, while the rate to Detroit
was 23 cents. The cut in the first In
stance was 5 cents and on the second
2 cents.
Tha court also rendered a similar de
cision upholding the lower court in the
BEWARE PNEUMONIA.
According to mortality statistics,
pneumonia is one of the most frequent
and fatal diseases to which humanity
is subject. Its action Is so rapid that
Its victim is often in a precarious con
dition before realizing that anything
more serious is the matter than a se
vere cold.
This la one of the dangers that may
follow neglect of a cough or cold, and
Is therefore the best of reasons why
one should check a cold at the start. A
simple, I inexpensive and effective
remedy, that will usually break a cold
overnight, is the mixture of one-half.
ounce of Virgin Oil of Pine compound
pure, with, two ounces of Glycerine and
a half pint of good 'Whisky. Take a
teaspoonful every four hours. It Is
claimed this mixture will cure any
cough that is curable, and provides a
sufficient, quantity to last the average
family an entire year. The ingredients
can be purchased at the Skidmore Drug
Co., or any first-class pharmacy.
In preparing this formula it is essen
tial to use only the best quality of
Glycerine and Whisky with the genuine
Virgin OU of Pine compound pure. The
latter preparation is a combination of
the active principles of the Pine and
Santalwood trees, carefully compounded
to retain the healing, health-giving
properties for which these trees are
justly famous. In order to insure its
purity and freshness it is securely
sealed in a round - wooden case. The
genuine Virgin Oil of Pine compound
pure is prepared only in the labora

case of a shipment to Cleveland in which
a fine of J26.000 was imposed.
The case of the United States vs. the
New York Central & Hudson River
Railway Company, Involving the question
whether a railroad company, which is a
party to a rebate transaction, but which
was not the initiatory road, can be crim
inally prosecuted for a violation of tho
Elkins anti-trust law, was decided by
the court against the company. The
New York Central was Indicted In con
neetion with a number of other com
panies. Including the Missouri Pacific, on
the charge of granting rebates in 1903
to the Brooklyn Cooperage Company on
cooperage material shipped from Poplar
Bluff. Mo., to Brooklyn. N. Y. It was
shown that all the railroads concerned
in the shipment had a tariff of 25 cents
a hundred on such goods between the
points named, and that all of them had
been parties to a rebate of 5?i cents
a hundred on shipments made by the
Brooklyn company. The New York Cen
tral was the delivering carrier and it
replied to the complaint by filing a de
murrer in which it took the position that
as it was not the initial company, it
could not be held criminally responsible
under the law. The case was heard in
the United States Circuit Court for the
Second District of New York, and the
demurrer sustained for the reason given.
Tho Government Immediately appealed
with the result that it obtained a re
versal of the lower court's holding.
