WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 The house to
day passed the senate bill increasing the
board of customs appraisers In New Tork
from ten to twelve, and also passed the
senate bill conveying a strip of ground
In St. Augustine, Fla., for school pur
poses. The agricultural appropriation bill oc
cupied most of the day, and as usual,
when the amendment striking out the free
distribution of seeds was .reached, the mem
bers from the farming districts outvoted
those from the cities, reversed a ruling of
the chair by a vote of 136 to 86 and re
stored the paragraph as has been the law
for years. The amendment appropriates
$238,000 for the free distribution of ordinary
seeds. !
Representative Lacey of Iowa offered an
amendment authorizing the secretary of
agriculture to sell marketable and ripened
timber of forest reserves to persons not
belonging to any organization to control
lumber prices. Mr. Lacey said the result
or the creation of great timber reserves
has been to Increse the price of lumber
and he urged that the government should
offer lumber for sale at times when It will
tend to force down prices which have been
Inflated by the "lumber trust." He said
he believed It was time for the government
to play Its strength against lumber mo
nopoly.

Pare Food Appropriation.
An Important amendment was adopted
that no part of the money appropriated for
enforcement of the national pure food law
should be paid to any state, city or dis
trict official, the amendment being based
on the theory that the states should exe

Representative Mondell of Wyoming, in
discussing the, forest reserve policy, said
no one could deny that It was a policy of
paternalism and centralization "and a policy
which should not be extended In this nation
further than Is absolutely necessary. There
must and there will be the hardship and
Irritation Incident to paternalism," he said.
We cannot get away from them, and

ministering these reserves In a fair and
reasonable way, but' it all Illustrates the

Representative Lever of South Carolina
stirred up a hornet's nest when he offered
an amendment appropriating $3,000,000 for
the purchase of the Appalachian and White
Mountain forest reserves. He said twelve
states were interested In the movement
and many governors had personally solic

Days' Speech on Child I-abor BUI.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Jan. 29. The sen
ate session today began with a lecture from
Senator Hale, who contended that too
much talking and not enough work was
being done. He had particular reference
to his Inability td secure the passage of the
diplomatic and consular fortification appro
priation bills, which were on the calendar.
Before the session ended the two measures
had been disposed of.
Senator Beverldge concluded his three-day
speech on his child labor bill. His argu
ment today was devoted to the constitu
tional power of congress to prohibit Inter
state commerce in child-made goods, and
took the broad ground that the power of
congress over Interstate and foreign com
merce is absolute, that such commerce can
be prohibited altogether, so far as the
power Is concerned, and that In all cases
policy and not power is to be considered.
The senate today, passed the diplomatic
and consular appropriation bill, carrying

feature of the Slocumb law and for other
Improper conduct in the office.
This determination was reached at a

J. Mahoney, who prepared the original
charges. Is to draft supplementary charges
and file them, together with a review of
the proceedings had In the case before
Governor Mickey.

finally decided that he had Jurisdiction In
the case, but did not hear the charges
on their merits. In effect putting the mem
bers of the board on parole. It Is the In

the Clvlo Federation of Omaha against the
members of the Omaha Fire and Police
board, Governor Sheldon replied:
"I have heard of no complaints except
what I have read In the newspapers. I
thought everything was running all right
In Omaha. I expected, from reports I saw
In the papers that a delegation from the
Civic Federation was to call on me at
Lincoln Tuesday. It would not be well for
me to say In advance what I Intend to do,
for I do not know but I will listen to their
complaints."
"Are you going to take any action on
the complaint filed with Governor Mickey
concerning the present Fire and Police
board T" was asked the governor.
"As far as I have seen I do not know
there Is any complaint on file, but I have
heard there Is. I have thought, however,
that it was not Just the right thing for me
to do to take up complaints which my pre
decessor had seen fit not to pass on. It
would not be showing much respect to
him."

Consumption Is Not

The fact that consumption Is frequently

Is erroneous. Weak lungs can be hereditary

to follow. Consumption Is produoed by a
germ which all persons frequently Inhale,
especially In cities where dust Is flying
at all times. It Is In weak lungs that the
germ finds a lodging place, soon multiplies
and starts Its work of destroying the mu
