tic of the revolution in Ulster which
U had heretofore Ignored, although the
Inl.owcr of Mr Edward Carson for
months have been advertising their
military preparations In every possible
way and daring interference with them.
Almost at the time of publication of
the proclamation Premier Asquith
made the longest step towards the con
illation of the L'lsteritcs that the gov
crnment has taken by announcing his
acceptance of the principles for the
basis of a settlement, wf.ich Premier
Asquith suggested In his last speech.
(Trramnl Offers Olive Branch.
These suggestions are:
First, that the agreement must not
re degrading or humiliating to Ulster
Second, tins-land's treatment must
not be different from that meted out to
otlier parts of the United Kingdom.
Third. Ulster must retain full pro
tection of the Imperial Parliament.
Fourth, the home rule act must not
be su h as to load to ultimate separa
tion of Ulster from Great Britain.
Thus the government extends to the
signers cf the Ulster covenant the olive
branch.
The proclamation prohibiting the Im
portation of arms and ammunition Into
Ireland, which Kin George signed at a
meeting of the Privy Council Thursday,
and which will be published in the
Royal Gazette tonight, was milder than
rumors hud anticipated It would be.

Premier Asquith said he agreed that
there must be no ultimate separation
of Ireland from Great Britain. The
real and effective authority supreme
and unquestionable, he said, must te re.
tained by the imperial Parliament.
lr Edward Carson and several prom
inent unionists, notably Lord Lans

gested In speeches tonight that the
officers should resign and the soldiers
refuse to fire if ordered to fight fel
low Protestants.
The leaders of the labor unions

asked Indignantly why Sir Lid ward

a policy when Tom Mann recently was

Herae Show Crowning Event.
T.KWISTOX. Idaho. Dec. S. (Special.)
Although there is but one more day
of the Northwest Livestock Show, the
interest is not waning. The exposition
has many features.
The future of the association was as
sured last night at the annual "get
together" banquet of the stockmen,
which was held in the Elks' Temple and
was attended by nearly 600 A. IX
Hryan. president of the Washington
State College, presided.
When the feasting was concluded
rash prizes amounting to $3500 and Si
beautiful trophies were distributed to
the prizewinners. Then followed the
voluntary contributions of prizes for
next year's livestock meeting, which
w ill be held at Lewiston. In less than
SO minutes premiums aggregating $1.
0 were pledged. J. P. Vollmer gave
Governor Haines and Governor Lister
each pledged themselevs as life mem
bers of the association and In addition
each contributed J 100 in cash. Ex
Governor Gooding, who is already a
life member, gave $200 and took out a
life membership for his son. John M.
Gooding. Thirty-two life members and
16 annual members were added, fully
one-half of the life members being
boys and girls, sons and daughters' of
stockmen or friends of the association.
Ex-Governor Gooding, when presented
with a $100 check as a premium on a
carload of Lincoln Iambs exhibited at
the show, returned the check, request
ing that It he used as a premium for
next year's show.
The crowning event ft the 1913 show
was the first annual night horse show
held in the West, which took place to
night. Every private box was sold. The
artillery and cavalry horses which were
on exhibition at the Madison Square
Garden Horse Show st week entered
the ring, but not to compete, as they
are the prizewinners of the world. They
were In charge of Captain Ball and
Lieutenant Potter and five assistants
and gave the same exhibition as was
given last week in New York City,
when they won the blue and red rib
bons, competing wtih the prize cavalry
and artillery horses not only of the
United States, but of Canada. England
and Russia. Germany and France. The
Chicago International Horse Show, now
in progress, made a strong bid for the
cavalry horses, but the Secretary of
War awarded the distinction to Lewis

In speaking of this, Mr. Burnham
said: "Portland has an opportunity to
make an excellent harbor In the Co
lumbia River opposite Vancouver. Wailc
Portland Is considering buying and re
moving Swan Island at a cost of mil
lions, so aa to make a harbor big enough
to enable a ship to turn around, why
not consider the Columbia River this
side of Hayden Island, where the river
bottom does not stick up so high?
"Here would be from 1j to 30 feet
less dirt to remove and all of the room
desired would be the result. Vancou
ver would assist in making these im

make an excellent place for public
docks. The City of Portland could own

Miss McPherson testified that she had

Dr. Knabe's kimono, which the state
attempted to get before the jury yes

hanging in a closet of the room where
the doctor met death.
"Then it waa a pretty navy blue."

the company to connect with the

cents for calls originating on Its line.
A complaint of the First National
Bank of Albany . against the Pacific
Telephone & Telegraph Company was
dismissed. The bank owns the tele
phone equipment in the building and
asked the Commission to compel the
company to connect with it and fur-
nlsh service. The Commission declined
on the ground that the bank Is not a
public utility, and the Commission has
no jurisdiction over it.
The Cnalem Mutual Telephone Com
pany, having farmers' lines out of New
berg, was denied a request that It be
given a connection with the Newberg
Telephone Company, which .fierves the
city and surrounding territory. It de
sired the connection in order to obtain
Inng-dlstance service with the Pacific
Telephone at Telegraph Company. The
Commission held that the l'nea were
competitive ones, serving substantially
the same territory, and as there had
been no complaint that the Newberg
company was not giving good service.
there was no public necessity for a
connection of the lines. ,
Holding that the Plalnvtew Mutual
