GERMANY ALWAYS
AMERICA'S FRIEND
Count von Bernstorff at Lin
coln Banquet Points Out
Long Good Feeling.
NO JAR MARS RELATIONS
Bismarck Quoted as Saying That No
Difference Ever Arose Between
Two Nations Which So Much
as Called for Explanation.
SPRINGFIELD. 111., Feb. 12. Count
von Bernstorff, German Ambassador to
the United States, was guest of honor
at the banquet given by the Lincoln
Centennial Association tonight. "Abra
ham Lincoln as the Germans Regarded
Him," was the subject of his address
In addition to showing that the Ger
mans were keenly sympathetic with
the character and purpose of Lincoln,
the Ambassador quoted eminent
thorlties to show what a strong bond
of sincere friendship welded together
tne common Interests of Germany and
the United States In Lincoln's day. He
closed with the fervent wish that "such
relations of friendship between our two
countries may always continue.
Nations Interests Interwoven.
The Count referred to the days when
the United States was re-presented in
Berlin by George Bancroft, "whose at
titude assured him a cordial accept
anct- in Berlin. He was received into
the inner circles of scholarly, social and
political life, and formed habits of
friendship with Bismarck and Moltke.
The political situation of Europe was
such that Bancroft regarded the uni
tarian tendencies In both countries as
correlating."
He then quoted Bancroft as declar
ing: "But for the triumph of the Union in
America it could never have succeeded
in Germany."
Moltke was quoted to show the
friendship between the Germans and
Americans. The Count then recalled a
dinner given by Bancroft In Berlin the
day of the Inauguration of President
Grant.
Bin m arc k Is Quoted.
"Bismarck was among the guests,"
related the Ambassador, "and made a
short speech. After referring to the
times of Frederick the Great, Bismarck
continued:
' 'As to the subsequent relations be
tween the two countries it gives me
the greatest pleasure to be able to
state as a fact, not only from my per
sonal experience as a Minister of Prus
sia, but from the archives of Its his
tory, that the cordial understanding, so
happily inaugurated by Washington
and Frederick, has never suffered even
the slightest Jar. Not only has no dif
ference ever arisen between the two
countries, but nothing has even oc
curred between them which so much
as called for an explanation.'"
After this quotation from Bismarck,
Count Bernstorff concluded with the
hope that this bond of friendship would
remain unbroken.
Bailey Warns of Socialism.
Senator Bailey, of Texas, declared
that the man who deceived himself
into thinking that the Government of
this country or the states could be
conducted without the aid of political
parties, was grossly mistaken. He said
tltat If we continued in the bad habiff
of recent years of feeling ourselves at
liberty to dissolve party connections
when It pleased us. with the knowledge
that we would be permitted to renew
affiliations when it seemed to our
Interest, parties must disappear and
the American people must be divided
into groups.
"It is impossible," he said, "to ac
complish anything as a Democrat, a
Republican, or a Progressive, unless
we acknowledge the obligations of
party allegiance. Much as I abhor
socialism. I give unstinted praise to the
union of that party, and I warn you
Democrats. Republicans and Progres
sives that If you go on quarrelling over
small matters, the next generation will
be compelled to reckon with a growth
of Socialism.

the attorneys on both sides. The suit
on trial was that of a Beardstown (111.)

cidence that the property Involved In
the suit was in the territory In which
Lincoln lived and practiced law for
many years.
"It was at Beardstown that Lincoln
conducted one of his greatest murder
casef, which he won," said the attorney.

the man who won freedom through
Lincoln's efforts remains as a memorial
of the event."
The attorney for the sanitary dis
trict told the Jury of records of
Lincoln's cases, his pleadings, written
In long hand and receipts for his fees,
still preserved In the courts.
It was at this point that JudgePam

Attorney-General. Members partici
pating In exchange transactions would

This Remedy Regarded as Not En
tirely Adequate, So Supervision
of Decisions on Constitution
Is Favored.
NEW YORK. Feb. 13. Colonel
Roosevelt tonight returned to the sub
ject of the decision of the Supreme
Court of Idaho in the election cases
and again voiced the opinion that this
decUIon constituted an "even graver
offense against justice and decency and
an even greater blot on the American
judiciary than the Dred Scott decision
itself." The court he characterized as
"the most potent instrument in this
denial of justice."
"Abraham Lincoln was no less guilty
than the three men whom the Supreme
Court of the State of Idaho imprisoned
for contempt because they criticized.
In less severe language than Lincoln, a
decision as Indefensible from every
standpoint of law and justice and
popular right?, as the Dred Scott decis
ion itself," the Colonel added.
VrItlngn of Lincoln Quoted.
Colonel Roo3eveit spoke to Progress
ives at their Lincoln birthday banquet.
The first political utterance he has
made in months, his address was per
meated with passages from Lincoln's
writings and speeches. In Lincoln's
words, he replied to the critics of the
Progressive party likened Republican
leaders to the "old exclusive silk
stocking 'Whiggery' which opposed
Lincoln before the Civil War," and de
clared that the time had come for the
people to act as the court of last re
sort. ,
"In Idaho," he said, "the result was
as grave a miscarriage of justice at
the election as already occurred at the
nominating convention and the court
became the most potent Instrument in
this denial of Justice. This decision I
hold to have been an outrage upon the
people of Idaho, and not merely upon
them, but upon the people of all the
United States, for any Interference
with the right of an American in any
state to cast his vote and have it
counted for the President of his choice
Is an offense against the Americans of
all the states.
Court Called "Reactionary."
"I think the result of the vote
showed that if we had been given our
clear and undoubted rights, Idaho s
electoral vote would have been in the
Progressive column. The action of the
reactionary court, taken in combina
tion with the action of the Republican
machine, resulted in the deprivation of
the right of the people of Idaho to
express their choice for President.
"Abraham Lincoln said that he be
lieved the Dred Scott decision repre
sented a conspiracy against liberty be
tween the then Supreme Court and the
leading officers of the reactionary party
to which the Supreme Court belonged.
believe that with even more justice
Abraham Lincoln, If alive today, could
make the same statement about the
action of the reactionary court of
Idaho in connection -with the reaction
ary leaders of the Republican machine
of Idaho.
"Abraham Lincoln was no more or
less guilty than the three men whom
the Supreme Court of the State of
Idaho have imprisoned for contempt
because they criticized, in less severe
language than Abraham Lincoln, a de
cision as indefensible from every stand
point of law and justice and popular
righta as the Dred Scott decision itself.
"A case like that in Idaho shows the
need of the power of popular recall of
the judiciary, a need which I believe
could probably best be met by having
the judges appointed or elected for life,
but subject on petition to recall by
popular vote every two years.
Hake hop Decision Cited.
"This action would not, however,
meet all the difficulties of the case.
In this state, for instance, there have
been many well-meaning judges, who,
in certain cases, usually affecting labor,
have rendered decisions which were
wholly improper, wholly reactionary
and fraught with the gravest injustice
to those classes of the community
standing most in need of justice. What
Is needed here is not the right to re
call the judge, who In some one in
stance gives a mistaken and reaction
ary interpretation of its constitution,
but the right of the people themselves
to express, after due deliberation, their
definite judgment as to what the con
stitution shall permit In the way of
legislation for social and industrial
justice.
"I hold that in such a case as the
bakeshop case, in such a case as the
workman's compensation act, in such
a case as the tenement-house sugar
factory act, in such a case as the act
providing for the safeguarding against
dangerous machinery. In such a case
as the eight-hour law, that It is for
the people themselves to decide
whether such a law Is or is not to
stand on the statute books. I do not
care whether you call this action of
theirs construing the constitution or
making the constitution. I care for
the fact and not for the name."
Many Women Present.
Many of the conspicuous figures in
the Pregresslve campaign last Fall
gathered for the dinner. Many women
were present. Albert J. Beveridge,
Progressive candidate for Governor of
Indiana at the last election; Oscar S.
Straus, who ran for Governor In New
York ; William H. Hotchktss, former
Progressive state chairman, and ex
Congressman W. Bourke Cockran, also
made speeches.
Colonel Roosevelt also declared un
equivocally against the amalgamation
of the Republican and Progressive par
Mes, as recently proposed by one of
the leaders in the Progressive cam
paign last Fall. l
"The Progressive party," he said,
"will amalgamate with neither of the
two old parties, both of which are boss
controlled and privilege-ridden. We
believe that in each of these parties,
however, there are hundreds of thou
sands of good honest men and women
who are progressives. The only place
for them Is in our party."

Margaret Armstrong Howell Pleads
That She Was Wed While Un
der Strange Influence.
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12. (Special.)
Judge Monroe has denied the applica
tion of Margaret Armstrong Howell, of
Spokane, for an annulment of her mar
riage to George Howell In San Diego,
in January, 1912.
Mrs. Howell alleged that Howell ex
erted an almost hypnotic influence over
her and that, after gaining her consent
to marry him, induced her to carry out
the promise against her will because
she had given her word. She left him
shortly after the marriage and seclud
ed herself In the home of a niece in
Los Angeles, refusing to see her bus
band.
Miss Armstrong waa a business worn
an of Spokane and built up the largest
florist trade in the city. She was near
ly 50 years old and was known for her
public spirit and philanthropy.
Howell is a Canadian and was
widower with grown children. He met
her and finally got her promise to
marry him If he would dispose of the
florist shop. He did that promptly, but
she declared that in the meantime she
had decided she did not want to marry
him and that his Insistence and his
"strange Influence" over her so affect
ed her mind that she was not respon
sible when she finally went with him
to San Diego and became his wife.

Staleruent of College's Work Shows
Enrollment In Science Depart

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallis, February 12. (Special.) Un
precedented growth and development in
the past two years, and indications for
uninterrupted advancement during the

work accomplished by the college and
the agricultural experiment station,
together with careful calculation as to
the requirements of the college and sta
tion in order to place the institution
In position to meet the demands of the
next two years.
While the report gives in detail all
changes In the faculty and courses of
instruction, and explains that the en
trance requirements have been raised,
the statistical portion of the book shows
that, despite the raised standard, the
enrollment of regular students in
creased 2 per cent in 1911-12, and that
the short course students increased 40
per cent. This increased enrollment
varies widely in the different courses
offered at the institution, running from
16 per cent in art and architecture to
159 per cent in botany and plant
pathology.
In the science departments, where the
work is pre-requisite for all the tech
nical courses, and where the most room
and equipment are required, the enroll
ment has increased from 72 to 169 per
cent. Thus the report points out that
the capacity of the institution in room.
In instructional staff and In funds has
been taxed to the limit for the past

"STONE TRUST' IS SUED
GOVERNMENT SEES IS BIDS
PRETENDED COMPETITION.
Uniform Prices Fixed and Rebates
Given Jobbers Is Charge by
Prosecution.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 12. Sensational
charges are contained in a civil anti
trust suit for the dissolution of the
Cleveland Stone Company and its sub
sidiaries, filed here today by order of
Attorney-General Wickersham.
To acquire a monopoly In the build
ing, paving, curbing and grindstone
business, the "stone trust" is charged
with influencing architects "by a money
consideration or by conferring favors"
to specify its stone in their building
plans, maintaining a separate organiza
tion of its subsidiaries to enable them
to appear as competitors In bidding for
contracts, fixing prices of building, pav
ing and curbing stones in the Central
States, and controlling the price of
grindstones throughout the United
States by agreement with jobbers and
rebating.
The Cleveland Stone Company, its IS
subsidiaries and their officers and di
rectors are made" defendants. The
Cleveland Stone Company, organized i
1886, is capitalized at $4,000,000.
As it Is not generally known that the
defendant subsidiaries are owned by
the Cleveland Stone Company, says the
Government, the subsidiaries appear as
competing bidders for contracts, their
proposals having previously been dic
tated by the parent organization.
It is further charged that the Cleve
land Company induces its actual com
petltcrs to enter into agreements with
it fixing practically uniform prices foi
building, paving and curbing stone
throughout the territory where the de
fendant sells a substantial part of such
materials.
The Cleveland Stone Company, with
its subsidiaries, has established Its al
leged practical monopoly in grindstones
by marketing such stones entirely
through jobbers, who are required to
handle the defendants- product exclu
sively and who receive rebates of 2H
per cent for the fulfillment of this con
tract. It is also asserted that the de
fendant also fixes Jobbers' re-sale
prices.
for the Government, completed today
his Inspection of the Federal prison
here and announced that ' he would
leave for Washington tomorrow. He
declined to say what recommendations,
If any, he would make to Attorney
General Wickersham regarding the
prison.
Major Leonard has installed a rifle
range on the Government reservation
and It is said the prison guards will

practice.

Gray Hair Restored
This Simple Home Remedy Darken
It Beautifully.
There is no longer any reason why
any person with gray hafr should not
remove this annoying sign of age and
remain in the youthful-looking clans;
and the best part of it Is that one
does not have to depend upon the pre
pared dyes and stains to bring about
the desired change. A simple prepa
ration which gradually darkens gray
hair, making It soft and glossy and
perfectly natural In color and appear
ance, can be made from an ounce of
oay rum, a quarter ounce of glycerine
and a small box of Barbo Compound,
procurable at any drug store. Dissolve
the Barbo Compound in 7 ounces of
water, then add the bay rum and
glycerine and you will have a splendid
hair darkener, as well as an excellent
remedy for dandruff and other humors
of the scalp. It also acts as a tonic to
the hair follicles. Is not sticky, do-s
not rub off or color the scalp, and is
both cheap and highly satisfactory In
every way. Make sure you are getting
Barbo Compound. If the druggist
hasn't It in stock, ask him to get It for
you.
