' New Today MlumM. 9g WHEN LIBERALITY COUNTS , Washington, Aug. 5 When the senate goes into executive ,)c session, all is solemn and ue;i- 5 ous. For instance, this story leaks out: ' ' May I ask what sort of man the nominee Is?" asked Senator Penrose of Senator Stone when Abram Klkug was ii for confirmation as Turkish ambassador. ,'f "A liberal, intelligent, genr- ons.-minded man," said Stone. "I hope he 'II not forget to be liberal in the coming cam- paign," said Penrose. " 1 'at riot ism should dictate . his course," replied Stone. , May Stop Personal Press Agenting by Congressmen ( at Government Expense Washington, Aug. 5. That dearly loved institution, "the: leave to print" under which congressmen annually send, postage free, to their consti'.u- ents tons of imaginary speeches they never made liberally sprinkled with mythical "laughter" and psychological applause ' is to lie curtailed if bill considered favorably today by both nouses, passes. A bi-partisan report from the joint printing committer urges these facts in favor of the lull: A million volumes a year, many printed on fine paper and bound in leuther, have to be sold as waste pa per because no ones takes the trouble to frank them out. Janitors ami building superintend ents complain that whole basements are literally filled with virtual waste paper, so 'that the government has to rent additional space to store coal am) wood Private manufacturing firms, acting in collusion itith senators and members have had printed ami funnked at pub lie expense "putts virtual nds though described as "expositions" of their plants, factories ami indus tries. T'ne present rules of both' houses arc: A member or senator may obtain the printing of anything as u "public document."- Sixteen -hundred arc auto nuiticullv struck off; thereafter the senator or the man lie is aiding inny have the government printing oifi strike off us many more as he wishes at the cost. The senator s frank will send any number. On a "leave to print" in the record campaign text books, works on various religions, mcilicul theories, etc., are in sorted as parts of speeches, technical lv. Then they, or any excerpt of tiein, are frunkalile. It took an unusiiul storm in the senate to prevent Senator Penrose from having thus printed the Bethlehem Steel cuinruny's nuti-gov- erunient armor plate plant propagnn ila. A member may say "Mr. President, I ask leave to extend my remarkes in the Record," ami then write at any length on anything. The new bill provides for cutting down of departmental documents, nil of which are by law required to be printed now, and provides that senate and house committees must examine every document which it is proposed to print. To prcvoirr, possible suppres sion of reports which the senate may wish printed it is provided the houses may overrule committee action, or in action. This bill has passed the house at previous sessions anil the senate in pre vious sessions, but if both bodies ever passed it, in the same session, it was invariably found the two measures differed slightly, and a compromise never has been reached. The aniu.al waste is estimated at 110(1,1100, for printing; that for frank ing cost to the postal department can not be measured, but it is said to be much mora than that. PREPARING CALF RENNET TOR MANUFACTURER'S USE. Scarcity of rennet extract for cheese making has led to the suggestion that packers' aud farmers save calves' ren net stomachs for shipment to rennet manufacturers, and the following meth od of preparation is recommended by the duiry deportment of the O. A. O. The reniiet stomach, which is the fourth stomach of the calf, i obtained from calves only that have lived on no diet other than milk. It is removed by cutting where it joins the next stomach, and (-leaned out by sipiee ing out the contents. The thick muscular part of the neck is cut out ami the stomach split open 'so that it will lie flat. The tat from the outside should lie peeled off but the inside of the stomach should not be washed with water. The rennet is then stretched v.ellaiid salted heavily on both sides 'immediately and left day or two iu a cool dark place away from the flies, to drain. Plenty of' Suit should bo on both sides. All rennets must be drained aud kept cool until ready for shipment, when they are packed in tubs or boxes. They spoil readilv and must be kept cool and suit ed. When thoroughly dried they will keep indefinitely, and where only a few are secured each weeK, it is a good practice after salting and draining, to haiic ui in the nir to dry The price received two months' ago tor rennet was 1.' to 1.1 cents each, but it is said that manufacturers no doubt 'nri willing now to pay a few cents more, due to the great scarcity.

Republican nom inee Hughes started his stumping tour today. Ic will carry him across the country to the Pacific coast and back ugain.j with a few days' vacation sandwiched in between times, at some spot in Glacier National 1'ark, Mon tana.

Four years ago Colonel Roosevelt es tablished a precedent for liveliness in transcontinental tours and With Hughes ability as a campaigner his friends were betting today he would equal if not better the Rooseveltiau record for strenuositv in speaking dates. With the governor travels Mrs. Hughes. It is a bran new departure tor the wire of a candidate to be with him on campaign tours. But Mrs. Hughes has always been one of her iiusbuud 8 most trusted advisers and assistants rh mapping political strate gy, and besides she wants to sec that he kept well, so it was decided to have her along.

Staytou Mail. BEAVER VISITS SILVERTON. As he was entering his premises n lew days ago, J. D. Drake noticed a piece oi kale traveling along in the direetii n of the sidewalk, To satisfy his cinio sity Juno set a trap under the walk ami when lie went to look at it si tee time Inter the trnp was missing. The mystery was solved Monday, howovor, when John Booth killed a large nioua tain beaver under the sidewalk on Wa ter street which had Mr. Drake's tinp painfully attuched to its leg. Mr. Drake says there are lots of them is the vicinity of his farm nud the crly way ho can account for the animal be ing in town is that it must have follow ed him home from the mountains sine night or was frightened out of lie woods by a family jar which is w.iil to have taken place In that vicinity a few weeks ago. Since the papers have had so mm a to say about that Kustern Oregon Sena tor's hare bide hat, June propose to go him otic tietter and order a genuine beaver hat made to measure, Silveiton Tribune,
