BERLIN, Feb, 7.—At a banquet tonight Bf the German counmell of agriculture, Count von Buelow, the imperial chaneellor, I8 & long speech, declared that he had @spoused the catse of agriculture not merely from A feellng of duty, but with fils whole heart. “A chancellor without sympathy for ag- Fleulture would be a strange fellow,” sald Cotnt von Buelow, “and he - would soon trip up.” 4 He' declared the alleged differences be- twebn himmelf and the emperor oy economic affairs to be otiviously a fiction, for while attémpting to advance the iiterests of ag- riculture he had also curried out the wishes ot the emperor, “while loving and wise solicitude for agriculture could always be eounted upon.” © The emperor completely endorsed the na- ttonal economic policy, continued the speaker, which was almed at benefiting to the utmost{hie agricultaral class without unfairly damaging the other classes of the | population.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Bwift and Co-puy Oppese Olosing of Q Btreat @rade Oressing. INTERFERES WITH STOCK YARDS PLAN Demoeratfe City Coumell Committee » for March 10 and by Crawford System. Officials of Swift and Company are mak- ing vigotous protests against the closing of the grade crossing at Q street and the construction of an approach to the Q street viaduct. In the plans suggested by (he stock yards company for the erection of & viaduct at O street or some point near, the intention was to close the Swift crossing and construct an incline so that teams go- ing to and from the Swift plant would not be compelled to cross the tracks under the Q street viaduct. Some three years ago this proposition was submitted to the Swift people by Gen- eral Manager Kenyon of the stock yards company, but it met with opposition. E. O. Price was general manager for Swift then, and he made the statement that the closing of this grade crossing would dam- age the plant to the extent of not less than $100,000. The plans for the incline are considered entirely too steep for heavy hauling, and further Mr. Price said at that time that it would delay the city fire department in reaching the plant in case of a fire. When the matter of vacating the portion of Railroad avenue comes up there will be a protest from Swift and possibly one from the Hammond company, as it is asserted neither company desires the closing of the Q street grade crossing. Since the committee of the council met with the officers of the stock yards com- pany a few days ago to talk over the via- duct site question mothing of importance has been dome, and the fight between the N and O street factions and the middle-of- the-road people still continues. Unless the council agrees to permit the closing of the Q street grade crossing the ground asked for trackage cannot be used to any great advantage, therefore an unusual effort is belng made to bring about the closing of this crossing, even in spite of the Swift protest.” Democratic Methods. Under the call issued by the democratic city central committee the primaries will be held on March 10. The Crawford sys- tem will be used. Candidates recelving the highest number of votes will be declared thé regular nominees of the democratic party. According to the call the primaries will be held from noom until 7 p. m., and the votes will be canvassed on March 11 by the city central committee, which will certity to the nomination of the successful candi- dates. The call is for the eléction of a mayor, eity clerk, city treasurer, city attorney, four councilmen for the term of two years and “two councilmen for the term of one year. The one-year councilmen are to elected from the Fifth and Sixth wards. Three mémbers of the Board of Education are also to serve for a term of three years. The call is what is causing trouble in the democratic ranks. “What is the use of having judges and lerks of primaries,” sald a prominent dem- ocrat last night, the city central com- mittee, composed of seven members, is to canvass_the vote and announce the result? ‘This looks to me as if a certain cligue in the party is trylng to run the whole show. The levying of a high assessment was the first move, and now' the order comes that the committee will count the votes. In this event there will be nothing for the Judges and clerks to do but sit around and check off the names of voters as the bal- Jots are deposited. Candidates must file thelr applications with the central commit- tee by 9 p. m. March 8." . Members Preparing Bo Jobn F. Schultz and Dr. W. J. McCrann, the recently appointed members of the South Omaha Park board, are going through the formula of preparing bonds. These bonds will be filed with the clerk of the district court early next week. As at pres- ent constituted, the park board consists of five members instead of three, as formerly. All of the old members have been reap- pointed. Last year the park board did lit- tle or nothing, although some money was spent in keeping up Highland park. An effort is to be made, 8o It is stated, to se- cure a levy sufiicient to purchase plats of ground In various parts of the city for park purposes. Amother suggestion to be brought before the board is the purchase by the city of Syndicate park. This park, it is ed, can now be purchased for be- tween $20,000 and $25,000. In order to make the purchase a bond issue would be necessary and the peeple of the city would be called upon to vote upon the proposi- tion. This question bas been up before, but the people did not favor the plan then, #0 it remains to be seen what will be done with the proposition which the present board contemplates submitting to the peo- dle. Muster Next Week. Captain Holland of the South Omaha cavalry troop communicated with the ad- jutant general of the state of Nebraska by wire yesterday in rd to the musteri in of the South Omaha troop.

M. Adams, presi- dent; J. C. Evans, vice president, knd H. A. Gorsuch, secretary of the associdtion, who sald they also were authorized to speak for the Southern Manufacturers’ asso- clation. They complained that the Fecent increase on the Jumber rate is out of pro- portion to the increase in freight rates on other bulky commodities. ~They charged that there is, us & rule, more delay in the shipment of lumber than in the shipment of other freights, due to the fact that lumber cars are so frequently side- tracked. They urged an amendment to the present law, having found that under it the Interstate Commerce commission is un- able to afford relief. Senator Bafley of Texas, 8. B. Burnett, & Fort Worth cattleman, and others have protested to the Interior department agalnst the designation of April 1 as the time when new leases of over 400,000 acres of Kiowa and Comanche pasture land in Oklahoma are to go into operation, under a recent re- advertisement of bids for the leases. - They want the leases operative September 1. The department contends that any later date than that already fixed would be un- just to the leasors. It Is proposed to divide this big tract into pastures averaging 22,000 acres each. Samuel Gompers was before the senate committes on immigration today and re- Iterated the statements heretofore made re- garding Chinese immigration. He dwelt especially upon the smuggling of Chinese from Canada and Mexico. Inspector Dunn estimated that 3,000 Chi- namen came into the country from Canada and Mexico annually. Charles H. Litchman of the Industrial commission sald the commission took strong gronnd in favor of continued Chinese ex- olusion.

That in time such a concession @s pro- posed, would be of vast bemefit to the farmers of the islands, and practically all the Inhabitants are farmers, he did not doubt. Politieal Effect Would Be Good. He was sure the political effect would be good, but that there would be any imme- dlate substantial effect he did not think was true, regardless of the statement made In his official report that such a reduction would cause an advance in trade by “leavps and bounds.” He did not witharaw the recommendation—on the contrty, he would be glad to have a reduction of 50 per cent. Governor Taft also explained that he had not intended to convey the idea that the 66,000,000 acres of land in the Philippines not controlled by private ownership s arable. Much of the area is, he sald- covered by mountain ranges and is not, therefore, capablv of cultivation. In response to,a suggestion from Senator Culberson, Governor Taft said he did not think the bill providing & tariff between the United States and the Philippines should be temporary, as is the case with reference to the Porto Rican bill. Speaking of the new revenue bill, passed the negotlations cannot be developed here|py the Philippine commission, he said thai at present confirmation is to be had of the |y, far the effect is conjectural, but that 1:‘ “eport from Pekin that the United States'yqaq noped the amount under the impetus it government is acting with Japan and Great | ywoulq give to the trade, would soon equal Britain in resisting any action by Russla|ine returns secured under the old laws. and China in the shape of a Manchurlan | whioh was $9,000,00 or $10,000,000. treaty that would threaten the interes There had so far been a great increase in the of the United States in that section of the | jmportation of food products, especially east.

Reverting to the subject of corporations, w Original / Governor Taft thought it would be wise for congress to give to the commission some discretionary power in the matter of bullding ratiroads. Governor Taft sald there was nothing more important for congress to do than to authorize the purchase of the lands held by the friars. Nothing gave the Filipinos 80 much trouble as the friars. It was ! hoped the friars would go to other coun- tries If their lands were purchased, but there was no power to evict them. Governor Taft brought up the matter later referred to and explained by Semator Patterson on the floor of the senate rela- tive to the treason statute of the Philip- pine commission. In the course of his re- marks Governor Taft sald: While I should like very much to earn the approbation of Senator Hoar for hu- manity, T must decline to do so at the ex- pense of the fact or at the expense of seeming to avold the responsibility which is mine as much as any of my colleagues.

All who are at all familiar ‘with social life at the southside of Chicago know well the Arcade Club, and will tell you that it is one of the largest and most influential clubs in Chicago. It can be readily understood, therefore, that such & prominent woman as the head of this club could have only one object in view in aliowing her portrait and letter to be published in conneetion with any medicine, and that is, to do good to other suffering mothers, Well does Mrs, Haskins know that there are thousands of women who dread .the riod of ehildbirth; thousands who are prostrated nigh unto death at tha irth of each child, and for months afterwards are weak and miserable, an¢ almost courting death as a relief from suffering. A capable mother must be a healthy mother. The experience of maternity should not be approached without careful physical preparation. Care and careful counsel is what the expectant and ‘would-be mother needs, and this counsel she can secure without cost by writing to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. Thotsands and thousands of women have been carried thron ordeal safely and comfortably by a faithful reliahce upon L ham’s Vegetable Compoun name and portrait to help us to convince all ske; happiness abounds in Lydia E. h this trying ia E.
