Animoeity toward the Western Federa- tion of Miners or its members was em- phatically denled. An affidavit was also filled by former Sheriffl Sutherland, who is now deputy sherift, making absolute denial of the charges made in the affidavit of Steve| Adams. Sutherland denied that on the trip from Boise to Wallace, when in charge of Adams. he had referred to the members of the Western Federa- tion of Miners as “outiaws, thugs and dynamiters.” ¥ idge Woods in passing on the ques- tion said that he believed that the Sheriff's office was entitled to com- mendation for the manner in which the members had conducted themselves in the case. He did not feel that any of them were biased, and did not believe that the appointment of an elisor would cast any reflection on them. He want- ed all sides to feel that a fair and im- partial trial would be given, and to this end he appointed O. D. Jones, a merchant, tc that office. The appoint- ment is satisfactory to Loth the defense and the prosecution e g PR S FOURTEEN PERSONS INJURED IN COLLISION OF TRAL MINER’S .

On the ground floor of the dormitory-building is a hard- ‘ware store, and the girls had no aif- |epity in obtaining all the shovels needed. Mayor Morgan, who is an instructor at the Normal School, had issued a re- quest that the citizens remove the snow from their sidewalks, and it was in re- sponse to this that the girls performed the unusual task. There was much | merriment while the task was under way, and, while expert shovelers would have done better work, a good path 'was made between the two buildings.

Shannon Disposes of | Bakersfield NInci&ent Stirs | Presses Worth Thousands| for Few Hundred Dollars JURY PROBES VALUES CALL HEADQUARTERS, 1007 EIGHTH STREET. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13. — State Printer ;W. W. Shannon has a new kind of record to his credit. &No Superin- tendent of State Printing ever held such wonderful bargain sales. He didn’t give things away, but he came very close to it. In one instance he| sold for a trifling sum a press that the | present owner values at more than $2000. When Shannon was put on the car-| pet by the ways and means committee | vo weeks ago he told of selling three “worn out and worthless” printing presses, one to H. M. Ogg of the Oak | Park Ledger for $200, one to W. F.| Prisk of Grass Valley for $400, a third | for $400 to his father, who is in the| printing business in San Francisco. Assemblyman R. H. Jury, bprinter, | publisher and member of the ways and | means committee, wandered out to Oak | Park the other day and took a look| at the “worn out and worthless” press | sold at a bargain by the State Printer. | The more Jury looked the better he liked the wreck. “Give you a thousand dollars for it," said Jury. “No, sir,” replied Publisher Ogg. “I'll make it fifteen hundred,” Jur, said | { " returned Ogg firmly. i Two thousand,” bid Jury. “That's| my limit. Come on, now. Let's call it| a sale” “Couldn’f think of it,” said Ogs. “It's worth more.” Jury went no higher. He says the press is worth all of $2000, and he stands ready to give that sum. Shan- non told the ways and means-com- mittee that $200 was a big price for it. The press sold to Prisk of Grass Val. ley for $400 is said to be worth $2500. As for the press sold to the father, the committee know nothing, for Shannon Sr. is holding no speech with prospec- tive purchasers. WORK FOR HERRIN'S LOBBY Bill in Ald of Bakersfield Agitates the Railroad Whips SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—Jere Burke and Walter Parker were busy today telling members of the lower house that Assembly bill 206 should not pass. The measure in which the railroad lob- by is thus taking such a keen interest was Ingroduced by McMullin of Bakers- field. Tt provides that railroad com- panies must maintain freight and pas- senger depots In every incorporated city or incorporated town through which their lines run. McMullin sought merely to get re- lief for Bakersfleld, which has had to use Kern City for a depot for years, but railroad attorneys soon learned that his bill would compel the Southern Pacific to build depots in Berkeley and several other towns. At Tirst the Herrin vassals scoffed at the measure. They said At was loosely drawn and would never stand a court test. McMullin amended it and -got it through the committee, and now the lobbyists are stirring themselves in order to insure its defeat on final pas- sage. p There is a possibility that the rail- road company will compromise by giv- ing Bakersfield the depot it wants on condition that the bill be interred with as little fuss as possible. HARTMAN SPRINGS SURPRISE Assembly Passes Resolution Placing Measure on Second Reading File SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—Gus Hart- man, piqued at the action of the Sen- ate committee on public morals in re- fusing to report his anti prize fight bill, sprang a surprise today by intro- ducing a resolution asking that it be passed out at once and placed on the second reading file. Irish of Downieville and Leavitt of Alameda, members of the committee on public morals, spoke against the reso- lution, declaring that Hartman had re- fused to explain the bill to them. “The bill is self-explanatory,” de- clared Hartman, “it is meant to put an end to fake fights and give the public the protection it is entitled to.” Irish declared he was in favor of the bill, but would not like to have it oydered out of commjttee until next Monday. On the first roll ‘call the resolution was lost, but when a call of the absentees was taken Hartman won out by a vote of 17 to 16. Hartman is con- fident that the bill will pass the Sen- ate, although six members who voted for the resolution tuday have declared that they will not support the measure when it comes up for final passage. GILLETT’S PLAN OPPOSED River Men and Shippers Fight Project to Abolish Works Commission SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—Governor Glillett’s project of creating an engi- neering department and abolishing the boards that now supervise harbor and other public improvements met with emphatic opposition tonight’ at the rheeting of the Senate finance commit- tee. River men, shippers and reclamation interests from Colusa to Stockton wel represented at the meeting and clared that the abolition of the Ce mission of Public Works would null improvements on the Sacramento San Joaquin rivers and put them on the plane they occupled five years ago. They argued that the men now in charge of river improvements could not be supplanted by engineers, as their efficiency was the result of long experience and familiarity with the conditions they had to contend with. Frank D. Ryan, attorney of the com- mission, presented a mass of resolu- tions and petitions against the pro- posed change, and said that even though the State would save $20,000 by the Governor's project, it would ultimately prove to be misdirected economy. SMYTH TO BE EXONERATED SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—After to- morrow Assemblyman Smyth, who has been under investigation because of & signed hewspaper article decrying the “drunken orgies” on the Burke funeral train, may sit among his fellows without fear of rebuke. A report ex- onerating him will be presented to the Assembly tomorrow. ] COMPROMISE ON COAL LANDS WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—A compro- mise of the coal land bill was finally agreed upon today by the House Com- mittee on Public Lands and recom- mended for a favorable report.

SACRAMENTO, ~Feb. ~ 13. — That Boccaccio indictment down in Bakers- field, where an irate husband appro- priated the trousers of Senator Charles Greenwell, has led to taik that the Senate may take steps to express its disapproval of the lawmaker's gal- lantry by formally moving to deny him any further leave of absence. Curtin of Sonora moved that leave of ab- sence be extended Greenwell yesterday, but did not repeat the motion today. Anderson of Santa Ana, discussing the incident, said: It is to he regretted that we canpot take some definite action in this matter. The epi- sode Is & private one, and cannot be coustrued as reflecting on this body as a whole. ~We cannot appoint an investigation committee to | try Senator Greenwell, for that would be usurp- ing the fynctions of a court. The most we can do i to refuse to grant him any further leave of absence and let it go at that. There can be no two ways of looking at _the matter, however. It is a disgrace to the Sen- ate and the State of California. 1 have no disposition to criticise any of th h whom 1 sit in the Semate. The: leagues. and I recognize that a prononnced espri du ‘corps should exist among all of us. It can- not be denfed, however, that this session of the Legislature is notable for its moral laxity. It I8 declared that some of the women at- taches are of the half world, and it does not seem right that public men' conscious of t proprieties are forced to sit in the same chan ber with them. . I have no means of proving what is being sald against these women, and [ don’t propose to make any effort to do so. The fact of the matter is that there should be no occasion to have storles of this character cur- rent. MRS, YOUNG TO FIGHT ‘Will File Counter Divorce Suit Against Husband Who Surprised Greenwell BAKERSFIELD, Feb. 13.—Upon his return from San Francisco today Attor- ney George E. Whitaker was asked if he intended to file a counter divorce against C. E. Young, who surprised Senator .Greenwell in the Young apart- ments here. ‘Whitaker, who represents both Sen- ator Charles Greenwell and Mrs. Clar- ence E. Young, replied that he intended to do so within twenty days. Mrs. Young was asked tonight if she had made any reply in court to her husband’s action, and she replied that she intended to do so as quickly as her attorney could prepare the papers. Young is still in Bakersfield and says he will remain here until the case is tried. Young had a desire to visit his residence last night. He went to the Sheriff's office and asked Deputy Sheriff Quinn to accompany him there to see that he did no barm. The officer did s0 and sald he saw “nothing wrong.” NELSOXN'S SURPRISING ORATORY Curbstone Classic Puts to Réut the Senator’s Opponents SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13. — Unre- strained handclapping greeted Senator Johnnie Nelson today at the end of an address in which he declared that he rep! nted the fishermen of the Latin Quarter of; San Francisco, and as proud ‘of the privilege of defendfhg thelr interests on the floor of the upper house. B Nelson’s address was one of the sur- prises of the day. None of the Sena- tors thought that Johnnie could un- burden himself of such compelling vernacular. The fuss started by an amendment submitted by Belshaw of Contra Costa to raise the prohibition' limit on tha striped bass that could be caught from three to five pounds. Leavitt of Ala- meda opposed the amendment. Nelson's tribute to the fishermen of the Latin quarter was a curbstone classic, and when the clapping ended Belshaw's amendment was defeated by an over- whelming vote. INSURANCE MOVE DEFEATED Commissioner Wolf Succeeds In His Work Against an Amendment SACRAMENTO, Feb. 13.—State Insur- ance Commissioner Myron E. Wolf re- sisted an attempt made by insurance men before the Senate committee on in- surance this afternoon to extend the in- vestments of insurance corporations to stocks. He declared this would be treading on dangerous ground and an amendment suggested by the insurance men carrying the privilegg was de- feated. The committee decided to report fav- orably on three bills, which are de- signed to make a general investment law for all insurance companies. The companies are empowered by a provi- sion of one of the bills to make loans on real estate approximating 60 per cent of the value of the lattef. Opposi- tion is expected from the insurance companies on one of the provisions de- cided on in the standard form of policy being drafted, as it allows the policy- holder to have as much as fifty pounds of gunpowder or dynamite on his premises. The inusrance men claim this is altogether too much and in- creases the risk undertaken to an un- reasonable extent.

He con- tends for a system of Government leas- ing of its mineral lands ana for treat- ing these fuel lands as public utili- ties. The President points out that it would have been better if some East- ern coal lands had been left under Bovernment control, and suggests provision in the West “against re- currence of the conditions we deplore in the East.” Citing cases of public land entrles in four districts men- tioned, the President says non- compliance with the law was found in over half of them and deliberate fraud in many cases. The President first referssto Ris pre- vious message to Congress ''on the subject, and again cail§ attention to the importance of- such legislation as would provide for title and develop- ment of the surface land as separate and distinct from the right to the underlying mineral fuels in regions where these may oceur, and the dis- 'posal of these mineral fuels under a lease system on conditions which would inure to the benefit of the pub- lic as a whole. He says he cares little for the details, and that_ the prime need is that the system should be es- tablished. The message says in part: Such a leasing system as that proposed repre- sents by no means an untried poliey. In the Australian countries during the last fiffeen years coal has been mined under a system of Govern- ment leases and on conditions so favorable for development that their coal and coke are today being sold on the Pacific Coast of both the | American continents, In all the great cosl pro- ducing countries except Great Britain coal is being mined -under leases. Iy Great Bffjtain leases are granted almost entirgly by the pMvate land- owners, but there, as in other countries, the surface culture and the mining operations are conducted independgntly of each other. In Nova Seot ritish Columbia, India and other British colonies & Gevornment leasing system bas n adopted and is working satisfactorily. In the United States, although conveyanmce of the mineral rights with the surface has been common practice, the separate development of the two Interests is Increasing; and in the East- ern and middle States a large part of the coal is belng mined under a system of private leases. It is gratifving to note that in those States, as in foreign countries, agriculture and mining are conducted within the same boudaries, and the country thus attains its highest dual develop- ment without confiiet of interests. Mineral fuels, like the forests and navigable streams, should be treated as public utilities. Let me also again urge that legislation be passed to provide for Government control of the public pasture lands of the West on the same general principles which now apply in the Gov- ernment control In the forest reserves. e local control of the range should be in the hands of Western men famillar with stockraising, and there should be a full local bhand in the man- agement of the range. gOver 200 new designs in penny toya} are brought out weekly among the toy- bt for Haod's: buts M sist, on having Hood’s AND ONLY HOOD'S., Genuine Must Bear WER Fac-Simile Signature PILLS. W SAN DIEGD (GNORED, BY COMMITTEE No Appropriation Made for Coaling Station There| and Amendment Beaten| FOSS IN OPPOSITION| ! WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.—There will | be no coaling station established at | San Diego unléss the Senate reverses the action of the House today. Rep-| resentative Smith offered an amend- ment to the naval appropriation bill appropriating $225,000 for this pur- pose. He explained the great neces- sity for such a station, calling atten- tion to the fact that the Secretary of | the Navy was in favor of the proposi- | tion, but that the eommittee had lg-l nored the recommendation. He stated | that in case of war it would be vir- tually impossible for ships of the American navy to get enough coal to| make a cruise of even a few days if | these ships were to depend upon the | coal supply of the Pacific Coast. 1 Chairman Foss, however, stated that | it would cost between $400.000 and| $500,000 to erect such a station, and that there was no immediate necessity | for it. His idea of the matter evidently | took favorably with the House, for on | a rising vote Smith's amendment was | defeated by a vote of 13 ayes to 4L noes. Smith says he will make an ef- | fort to have the amendment’ inserted in the bill when it reaches the Senate. | More than half of the naval appro- | priation bill was perfected. | of points of order were made and sus- | tdined against minor provisions in the | bill.
