Parting of the ways of the county optionists and the members of the Minnesota Prohibition party last night at the fifteenth banquet of the party, held in the court house assembly hall in Min- came annual neapolis. The split between the adherents of county option and of state wide prohibition was forced by a failure of the county option bill at this ses- sion of the legislature, and the last tie binding the two factions of the enemies of saloons and the liquor traffic to gether was cut when Crarles J. Hall, Los Angeles, speaking auth- oritively for the executive committee of the party in Minnesota announced to 500 prohibiti;uists in the audience that from now on the county option- ists would receive no help from their party and that the two had parted. never to be reunited in this state again. : From now on the strength of the party wil be concentrated on a con- stitutional amendment prohibiting the sale of liquor. To that ‘end over $3,500 was sub- scribed by members of the party last night. A direct fight in every county of the state will be made in the cam- paign to be waged in 1912. No help from county optionists will be asked or given. W. G. Calderwood presided at the banquet. Over 500 men and women filled the hall and scores were turn- ed away. Rufus P. Morton, state representative was toastmaster. PUNISHEDBY INDIGNANT MEN Brainerd Man Tarred and Feathered For Alleged Crime.

Norton, secretary to President Taft, sald that the call for the extra ses- sion of congress would probably be is- sued in time for publication in the Sunday morning newspapers. The date for the extra session will prob- ably be March 15. This has not been decided definite- 1y, but it is known that the president regards that date as a fair compro- mise between the Democrats, who want a ‘mon vacation, publicans, who want it called imme- diately, if there must be one. Many of the Republicans urged that the call be issued for March 6, next Monday, but that date is out of the question, as the president has ar ranged a trip to Georgia that will oc- cupy his time until after the 10th. Representative Clark, speaker o be of the next house, and Representative Underwood, who will be Democratic chairman of the ways and means com- mittee, were early callers at the White House to discuss the extra session with President Taft. After the con- ference they said that no date had been fixed on. Mr. Clark expressed the opinion that if there was to be an extra session it should be called im- mediately. NO CHANGE IN POSTAL RATE Senator. Penrose Abandons Fight for an Increase. Washington, March = 4. — Senator Stone failed to carry out his promise to bring up the reciprocity bill after the passing of the sundry civil bill and this ended all hope of the Canadi- an pact being passed by the senate at this session. The senate rushed through the sun- dry civil bill and the naval appropria- tion bills and began consideration of the postoffice appropriation bill. During the consideration of the post- office appropriation bill Senator Pen- rose announced he had abandoned his fight for an increase in the postage rate on magazines. The filibuster against the tariff com- mission bill was terminated early when Senator Beveridge, by a mneat parliamentary coup, had Senator Stone ruled off the floor. This re- sulted in an agreement to vote on that measure. ACTION CAUSES SENSATION Senator Cullom Condemned by His Alma Mater. Oregon, Ill, March 4—The action of the faculty and students of Mount Morris college, the alma mater of TUnited States Senator Shelby M. Cul- lom, in denouncing -Cullom for his vote on the Lorimer case, has created a sensation here. After reciting that bribery and cor- ruption tended toward the election of Lorimer the resolutions adopted in mass meeting declare: | “We condemn the action of Senator Cullom in voting as he did in the Lor- jmer case, by which act we belleve him to have covered his own proud record with shame and also to have brought into disrepute the founders of our college as well as the people of this state, in setting before the coun- try a standard far too low for this generation to accept.” ACCUSED OF VIOLATING 'LAW Legislators Charged With Bringing Liquor Into Dry Territory. Lansing, Mich., March 4.—Prosecut- ing Attorney Hayden of Ingham coun- ty has discovered, he asserts, that a majority of the members of the Michi- gan legislature have been smuggling liquor into Lansing, which is in “dry” territory, and he says that fifteen days after the session is over he will issue warrants for the arrest of the repre- sentatives. Under the Michigan statutes 2 mem- ber of the legislature is immune from arrest during the session and for fif- teen days after its conclusion and the prosecuting attorney 1s powerless to act at present. This is the first time that the legis- lature has met in a county where local option is in effect. Korean Plot Unearthed. St. Petersburg, March 4—A Korean plot to destroy the Seoul-Fysan rail- way and to massacre all of the Japan- ese residents in Seoul has been un- earthed by the Japanese, according to messages from the .Korean capital. It is asserted that 50,000 members of the former Natlonalist party in Korea, aggrieved over the annexation of their country by Japan, are involved in the vlot. OFFIGIALS ARE EXONERATED Report on Sale of Friar Lands in Philippines. LAW HELD RESPONSIBLE House Investigating Committee Sub- mits Reports Differing Only in the Recommendations Made for the Amendment of the Statute Covering the Sale of Such Lands. ‘Washington, March 4. —Complete ex oneration of the officers of the Philip pine islands government of all charges of firregularities or improprieties in connection with the administration sales or leases of lands in the Philip- pines, yet on the other hand pointed criticisme of the inadequacy of the present laws to prevent monopolies in what are known as “the friar lands,” are expressed in both the majority and the minority reports of the house com- mittee on insular affairs submitted to the house. The charge made on the floor of the house ‘a year ago by Representative Martin of Colorado that the so.called sugar trust had acquired 56,000 acres of “the friar lands,” led to an investi- gation of the entire question of the administration of public lands as well as “friar lands.” Both reports concur in the opinion that the organic act of 1902 in limiting individuals to forty acres and corpora- tions-to 2,500 acres in-the amount of public land that may be acquired does ot {mpose the. same restrictions os Differ on Recommendations. The majority, report argues that as & practical eéxpedjent, the “friar laud should be disposed of in large quan titles to attrdct buyers while the mi nority claim that the sale of the “friar lands” in large tracts mey develop a system of absentee landlordism, as ohnoxious to the Filipinos as that of the friars against whom they once re- belled. of 56,000 acres of the “friar lands,” on behalf of Horace Tavemeyer, Charles J. Welch and Charles H. Senff, botk reports declare the public officials in- volved were not culpable, being guid- ed by the best available interpreta- tions of the law. < The majority members, however, deny that the land was obtained by the sugar trust, while the minority as sert that if the sugar trust did not ac quire it, “the next door neighbor to the sugar trust'did and that there i< apparent a_community of interest” evidencing a holding by one person of upwards of 56,000 acres of land REBELS TAKE THREE TOWNS Continue Their Activity in Northern i Mexico, * El Paso, March 4—Santa Rosalia, Chihuahua, was taken by insurrectos Tuesday.
