Cannon in congress and in the furtherance of his plans he has "subsidized" the grand jury now in vestigating Vermillion county's cor rupt electorate, are made in the news columns of the Commercial News, the Cannon organ in Danville.

San Francisco It is unlikely that the steamer Senator of the t'acinc rVirat SteamshiD company's fleet, will engage in any further attempts to bring Hawaiian and rilipino laoorers here from Honolulu for transshipment to Alaska for work in the Alaska Packers' association canneries. Un der charter to the Alaska Packers' as sociation, the senator sailed from this port for Honolulu, March 28, last, equipped to carry 1,000 laborers here. Sho returned last Sunday with 145. They left the steamer Wednesday af ternoon, after refusing to lane pas sage on the Star of Italy for Bristol Bay. Hope of Break Wane. Ttonver Predictions are commoa that the deadlock on the United States spnatorshiD will remain unbroken, and that the present session of the legis lature will adjourn soon wunoui elect ing a successor to the late Senator C. T Hno-hps Jr. The action of the re convened Pueblo Democratic county convention, in remstructing tne ru Mn legislative delegation for ex- Governor Alva Adams, and opposing further caucuses, has destroyed, it is believed, all chances for an election at this session.

SMUDGE POTS SAVE FRUIT. Temperature Sinks to 25 Little Lost Over Northwest.

SHEEPMEN ASKED TO PROTEST Dan Symthe Says Change In Sched ule K May Ruin Them. Pendleton Dan P. Smythe, secre tary of the Oregon Woolgrowers as sociation, is sending letters and night letter blanks to 1,000 sheep men throughout the Northwest, urging them to telegraph immediately to Senators Bourne and Chamberlain, protesting against any change in tariff schedule, and asking that the question of revision of the wool tariff not be considered until at least after tariff commission reports. He insists that Western wool grow ers realize their responsibility and awake to the realization that any re duction in this tariff will mean great damage to the industry. He urges also that the sheepmen be prepared when the tariff commission calls upon them within the next few weeks to furnish data on the exact ex pense of running their sheep and the amount of proceeds they receive from the sale of sheep and wool, showing that only a fair profit is made under present conditions.
