'Tho Minplesl way of ivlievincr us" said Senator Shafroth today, "is lo change the policy of the interior do pm (incut in mliiHiitsleriiiK ' existing laws. The law does not compel the depaitnieul to charge ten cents n ton for coal taken funn government land filed on by settlers. Tho law does compel tho dcpai Intent to charge n limn who develops water power for every horeo power developed. This charge keeps citizens ftom opening up natural lesources.

MEDIUM VOTE ONLY CAST ON AMENDMENTS Considerable Interest Is Manifest m Streets But Vote Lighter Than Expected Owing to Weather Woman vote Hot Very Heavy. Indications Are That Arnwry ImhI Issue Is Lost Vole m Charter Amendment Is Reported CkH. Only n medium vole Is bclnjri? today nt (ho speeinl election onfled lo vote a $20,000 bond !uo for Ar mory purpose, nnd on an amend ment to tho city charterjaprevent Ihe mnyor from using Ms power of suspension indefinitely, of equivalent to a ermoval. While there is considerable inter est displayed on the street in con nection with the election the vote in not as heavy as expected. The weather is in a mensuro responsible for this, the woman vote being light. The afternoon vote will probably bo heavier. Indications at noon were to the effect that the bond issue for the armory has been defeated. The vote on the amendment to the charter is admitted to be close by both fries d and foe of the measure. Tho need for more polling place, due to the doubling of the vol through tbe enfranchisement of the women, was again demonstrated this afternoon. At 2 o'clock the polling places were crowded and many peo ple refuted to stand In line, prefer Ing to glvo up their tote. As the polls were only open frcm 9 Btll,5,, t and as the Judges and "clerks took out dinner hoar, but a short time was left for, tho large crowd thai wUhed, to express Its opinion on the two amendments offered. Though the vote on a special election of'thlx kind Is light, the result Is showing that, even In special elections, better accommodations must be given the voters. E TO MICHIGAN BY CYCLONIC STORM DETROIT, Mich., March 22 Low ering temperatures following iu the wako of yesterday' storm is causing much suffering today throughout Michigan. Kstimntes of the total damage by the storm, the worst in the history of Michigan's weather bureau is impossible because of bro ken wire communication, but it prob. ably will reach $1,000,000. It is known that one person met death iu tho storm, but the list of fatalities may be increased when communication with mnny outsida places is restored. A conservative estimate of the loss in Detroit is $500,000. Tho crops and orchards iu southern Michigan wero damaged, but it is not known yet to what oxtcnt. E CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 22. With six knowu to bo dead, a score missing mid forty others injured, some probably fatally, Ohio is re covering slowly today from ono of tho worst storms in years.
