MAK11SG RKVENIR LAW PLAINER Clear Definition of "Average Capital of Grnln Men." (From a Slaff Oorreapondent.) LINCOLN. March ll.-(Speclal.)-Tbe sen ate today in committee of the whole agreed to a bill by Tlbbets of Adams county ' In which an effort Is made to clear any doubt that may exist as to the Intent of the present revenue law with respect to the taxation of grain brokers. There has been much difference of opinion as to what la meant by "average capital,'.' ths grain men, until the supreme court held differently, declaring .they could not be made to pay taxes on tbe average amount -of grain, on hand during ths year because when the as sesstir came Around In April, they would either have tha grain . on. , hand or Ihe money received for It." Benator Tlbbets bill reads as follows: .Jvery person, company , or corporation engaged in the business of buying and sell lug. grain for profit shall be held to be a grain bruker, and .shall, at the time required by this act. 'determine under oath the average amount of capital In vested In such business for the preceding year, and taxes shall be charged upon -such average capital the same as on other prop erty. Real estate and all other tangible property snail be assesesd separately. "Tan glble property" shall not apply to or In elude grain on hand. "Averaae caDital' hall Include all grain purchased during the year whether the same has been said or is astlll on hand at the time of assesment.

Old House Rules Will Be Adopted Representative Watson Sayi Imar- f ents Are Dropping Away Since President Entered Fight. WASHINGTON, March -Representa tive Watson of Indiana, who was republi can whip in the house after a lenghty con ference today with President Taft esti mated the strength of the republican in surgents in the house at twenty-two. 'Since the president entered the fight," said Mr. Wa'son. "the Insurgents have been dropping off one by one. Ws recog nise that we have a hard fight to adopt tne old rules and preserve the organisa tion, but we believe that we have the mat ter in hand and that when Mr. Dalsell on Monday moves the adoption of the rules of the house of the last congress there will be votes enough to make his motion pre vail." HARD COAL SCALE MEETING (Continued from First Page.) of the anthracite mine workers and not aa officers of the union. The operators called up the report of the strike commission to support their refusal to deal with the United Mine Workers. At the end of the discussion the operators made the definite proposition to renew the present agreement for a term of three ytars." The present agreement made In New York three years ago, when John Mitchell led the miners In the negotiations. Is Identical with the sward of the strike comlsslon made In 1903 after the strike of 1902. Three years ago the miners made numerous de mands, but all were rejected and they ac cepted the renewal of the strike commis Ion award, which is the same, proposition again made by the operators today. Demands of Miners. The demands of mine workers, drafted in Scranton last October and ratified by the national convention In Indianapolis In Jan uary are aa follows: 1. That an agreement shall be negoti ated between the representatives of the minera ana the operators of the a ntli re nte region and all disputes arising under the contract shall be adjusted aa pro vided for In the said agreement. !!. We demand the complete recognition In the I'nlted Mine Workers of America as a party to negotiations in wage con tract, and the Inlted Mine Workers of America shall be recognised In Its right to provide any method we may adopt for the collection of revenue for the or ganisation. t. That we demand an eight-hour day, with no reduction In wagea. 4. That all coal shall be mined and paid for by the ton of 2,000 pounds. 6. That we demand a definite and more uniform scale of wages and prices for all clauses of labor at all collieries In the anthracite region, and that all employes paid $1.60 or less per day shall receive 10 per cent advance and all employes paid more than 11.50 and less than $2 per day uaii ivi-rivr a o per ceni advance. 8. That the system whereby a contract miner lias more than one Job or employs more than two laborers be abolished! 7. That the employers be required to issue uniform pay statements, designating the name of the company, the name of the employe, the colliery where em ployed, the amount of wages and the class of work performed. 8. That the contract shall be made for a period of one year. So far aa could be learned today, a ma jority of the minera are opposed to a strike because they feel that they are not strongly enough entrenched to carry on a campaign of the magnitude of that of 1902 and 1903.

BOYCOTT DECREE MODIFIED Court of Appeals Changes Contempt Decision and Affirms It ONE PROVISION STRICKEN OUT Federatloalat May Refer to Rang; Comonnr In Ite Columns Kaeent In Its "Don't Patronlae 1.1st." WASHINGTON. March ll.-The Ameri can Federation of Labor may freely refer to the boycott against the Bucks Stove and Rango company of St. Louis except by Inclusion In ths "We don't patronise list." This Is the' substance of a decision of widespread Importance to the labor world, to manufacturers and to newspapers gen erally handed down today by the court of appeals of the District of Columbia In the noted Injunction case of the Bucks Stove and Range company against the American Federation of iLabor, which has been before the courts of the District of Columbia in various phases for months. In a recent decision by Justice Oould of the supreme court ' of the district the American Federation of Labor and the officers, Messrs, Oompers, Mitchell, Mor rison and others were enjoined from con spiring to boycott the Bucks Stove and Range company and from printing or pub lishing, or distributing, through the malls or othorwlse, any copy of the "Federatlon- lst" or other publication referring to the complainant, Its business or product In the "We don't patronise" or unfair list. Decree Is Modified. The decision today Which was by Jus tice Robb modifies and affirms the decreu of Justice Gould. The court holds that the decree should be modified to the extent that It shall only restrain the defendants from conspiring or combining to boycott the business of the Bucks Btove and Range company or threatening or declaring any boycott or assisting therein and from print ing the name of the complainant. Its busi ness or product In the "We don't patronise" or "unfair" list of defendants in the fur therance of any boycott against the de fendant's business or product, or of inter fering either In print or otherwise with defendant's business as In "We don't pa tronise" or "unfair" Hat in furtherance of a boycott. The court holds that the defendants can not be restrained from all publications re ferring to the Bucks Stove and Range com pany, but only such as are made in fur therance of an illegal boycott. Chief Jnetloo Dlsaenta. In a partially dissenting opinion. In which he says he Is unable to concur in the modi fied decrees of Justice Robb, Chief Justioe Sheppard expressed the opinion that the decree should be modified "so as to re strain the acts only by which other per sons have been or may be coerced Into ceasing from business relations with the Buck's Stove end Range oompany, but so ss not to restrain the publication of the name of that company in the "We Don't Patronise" columns of the American Fed eratlonist, no matter' what the object of such publication may be suspected of or believed to be." Justice Van Ordel concurred fully In the conclusion reached by- Justice Robb, but by a different process of reasoning. "The sustaining of such a decree by a court of equity would violate the constitutional rights of the,, cltlsen," aaya Justice Van Orsdol, In referring to the Oould decision, "It would mark the beginning of the era of tyranny by, Jke branch of the govern ment charged .with, protecting the cltlsen in his legal or constitutional rights." He says further , that the clsuse In the con stitution gusranteelng free speech snd free press forbids government censorship In all forms. "It would be difficult," he adds, "to conceive of a more effective method of establishing a government cen sorship thsn through the writ of Injunc tion." Mr. Oompers Talks. "The dissenting opinion of Chief Justice Sheppard." aald Mr. Oompers tonight, "Is exactly that for which the federation has all along been contending so far ss tt re rers to the freedom of the press. The right to freely express opinions Is a con stltutlonal guarantee. There is nothing libelous the federation has published in connection with this whole case." me aecision aoes not seme tne appeal in the contempt proceedings In which Messrs Oompers, Morrison and Mitchell were given Jail sentences. This esse will be heard later by the appellate court. The labor leaders claim that If the res sonlng sdopted by Chief Justice Sheppard and Justice Van Oradel Is followed In the decision In the contempt esses they will be able to set the findings of Justice Wright aside snd prevent serving terms of Impris onment.

CONGENIAL WORK Ajid Itreng-ta to rtrfom Xt. A person In good health Is likely to have a genial disposition, ambition, and enjoy work. On the other hand. If the digestive or gans have been .wpeet by wrong food, work becomes drudgery. "Until recently," writes a Washington girl, "I was a railroad stenographer, which means full work every day. "Like many other girls alone in a large city. I lived at a boarding house. For breakfast It was mush, greasy meat, aoggy cakes, black coffee, etc. "After a few months of this diet I used to feel sleepy and heavy In the mornings. My work aeemed a terrible effort, and I thought the work was to blame too arduous. "At home I had heard my father apeak of a young fellow who went long dla ancea In the cold on Qrape-Nuta and cream and nothing more for breakfast "I concluded if It would tide htm over a morning's heavy work. It might help me, so on my way home one night I bought a package and next morning I had Qrape-Nuts and milk for breakfast. "I stuck to Qrape-Nuts. and In less than two weeks I noticed Improvement. I can't just tell how well I felt, but I remember I used to walk the 11 blooka to business and knew how good It was simply to live.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., March 11. While the motor oars In the endurance run from New Tork to Boston were passing past Fairfield today a horse attached to a closed carriage In which Aaron Wallace of that town was riding took fright and ran away. Mr. Wallace opened the door of the carriage and Jumped out and was killed. Word wss sent to the New Haven police to detain the driver of the car that caused the runaway, who is thought to be Paul La Croix. NEW HAVEN, Conn., March ll.-Upon arriving at the checking station for the machines run La Croix was taken by the police to headquarters to await a formal Order for his detention.

Plnchot, la already enormous, being several times larger than our Importation from Canada. "I do not believe," he says, "that the Increased use of Canadian wood under free lumber would equal the Increased use of Canadian wood under waste." The chief forester thinks It "highly Im portant that we ahould have free pulp wood In the future as In the past and that Can ada should Impose no export duty upon pulp wood. In this respect," he continues, "the pulp and paper-making Industry Is in a different position from the other great wood-using Industries of the United States. The latter can be supplied wholly from our own forests, while the former must have free access to the Canadian spruce forests so long as spruce Is the chief pulp wood." He declares that ground wood should be admitted free, "provided that It comes from a country which does not In any way re strict the exportation of wood pulp or ground wood and that there should be a re duction in the duty upon printing paper." Mr. Plnchot places the first duty for con serving the forests upon the lumbermen themselves, declaring that "by asking for the retention of the tariff In order to pro tect the forests the lumbermen have In substance entered Into an agreement with the people of the United States to perpet- uste the forests by wise use." He declares that "If the lumbermen do not make the most of this opportunity, legis lation Is coming, and coming very soon, which will force them to do clean work In the woods and to leave their out-over lands In a condition to produce a second crop."
