during the holiday month. Most of the
ingoing camps have already closed down
snd mills are closing down one by one.
While the mill pJants ; will be given
! heir annual overhauling. the- general
close down is Intended to result In either
a Ftiffer lumber market or cheaper logs.
In years past, it is said, lumber mann
iciurers in this district have been in

"I want to say for the beoefK of

I be based on these. , ? . . ' ' .' !

, mills and sell to the buyers, say that

"The lumber market has been weak
for many months, the only way to
revive It is to curtail the output of
lumber. Suppose there ', was an ; over
supply of suits; it would be poor busi
ness for tailors to pot their crews to
work day and night' turnip out mora
suits. j ...,.. -'' .- -
"That would not increase the demand
except perhaps to the extent that a
few. men with mora money than they
knew what to do Wfta. would stock up
for awhile. But the effect of that
would be felt later on and so only ag
gravate the evil..,' ,. "' '. :V: '. V
Lumber fought good prices early in
the year. We charged exactly the same
price for logs then as now and did not
advance them although it could have
been done. We wanted to establish a
basis from which the lumber manufac
turer could work on future business to
some degree Of certainty, and that Is
what the loggers are trying to do now. ;
They do not approve the idea of getting
$T for logs one month and $17 the next,
but would rather get; a, fair price , the
year round. It would sglve a sound,
basis upon whch to work."' ' ' ' j

$10,100 damages because she was chased
by a Jersey bull and fell over a pickot
fence while scurrying to safety, " '
" Miss- Anna Bohrer was the witness
who testified to . the alleged offer of a
bribe and her testimony was corrobor
ated by Mrs. Addle Bohrer, her mother.
She did not wait to find out what Mrs,
Green wanted her to testify to, she said,
as she indignantly rejected the offer.
Miss Bohrer said Mrs. Greene first of
fered 4250, raising to $508 and then to
$1000. - Mrs. Bohrer testified to hearing
the $500 and $1000 offers made. Mrs.
Greene paid she expected to. get $2000
soon, the witness stated. A man on the
car bad told her about it and she would
give $1900 of it to Miss Bohrer, was the
alleged statement . , i
Mrs. Bohrer lays when they spurned
the offer Mrs. Greene remarked: '
"As poor as you. are, I should think
you i would take money for , any old
thing."
"That's insult enough for me for 1000
years," Mrs. Bonrer said she retorted.
That closed the interview. She said she
asked the name of- the man on the car
referred to and was told it was John
Ditchburn, Mrs. Greene's attorney. '
Testimony in the case was closed this
forenoon and Judge Hamilton took his
decision under advisement. WHneai.es

when the Democrats assume eontrol of
the house neit year. It Is generally
believod that Clark, as minority leadur,
and the probable majority leader at the
next session, issued his statement only
after consultation with the other mem
bers of his party, and it is believed
that it, indicates that the ' Democrats
will attempt a schedule-by-schedule re
vision. '
, Washington, DC. 16. diamn Clark
wni not be a dictator of the next house,
Even though he. is elected speaker, he
will not endeavor to nama the commit
tees, but instead will support the "com
mittee on committees" plan of the in
surgents. , ' ? ;
Simultaneously with th
ment that the Missouri minority leader
will favor this plan a petition was cir
culated today calling for a Democratic
caucus January 19. It la xnteteA that
Clark will be nominated for the speaker-
