This ii Theme of Dr. Cyrus North-
rup'a Address to Class at Univer
sity of Iowa Yesterday.
IOWA CITY, la., June 16. (Special Tel
egram.) "Country before party, nation be
fore state, In a word the hlKhest and best
thing first meana eternal life for the Amer
ican nation." This was the keynote of the
mt-anags brought to the graduates of the
university of Iowa this morning by Presi
dent Cyrus Northrop of the university of
Minnesota.
"Higher education," said the speaker,
"must do more and more to dismiss the
econonila evils of our country. When the
college man, freSh from the halls of learn
lug, reaches the farm I predict a lightning
change In these lilna and prairies. We
must look to the college man to Improve
our mechanical arts and always must we
encouraue him to use his education to
betterment of our country. The farmer
and his farm are becoming vital more and
more, and more Is our legislature being
filled with men straight from the farm
than by those who In a measure prepare
themselves for It. I would warn against
the lack of good teachers. Embryo teachers
should train themselves mure thoroughly
and should realize that in making their
choice as teachers they should make It
as a life choice, and devote themselves
to It rather than make It as temporary
employment."
The commencement procession, which
wound Us way to the armory this morning
where the graduation exercises were held
was headed by President Qeorge K. Mac
ten, followed by the deans of the college
and faculty members, behind whom came
the graduates, In number 398.
The monster athletic pavilion was packed
with over fifteen hundred men and women
from all over Iowa who have come to see
their children graduate. The alumni ban
quet at noon today, together with the
senior hop this evening Closes the exer
cises, marking the semi-centennial com
mencement here.

NEW TORK. ' June !. United Btates
postnfflce Inspectors raided the handsome
Ilroadway offices of the United Wireless
Telegraph company today and caused the
arrent of Christopher C. Wilson, presl
dent of the Company; Samuel d. Bogart,
first vice ' president, and William W.
Tompkins, president of the New York
selling agency which, officers of the wire

them
Chief Inspector Mayer subsequently gave
out a long formal statement, In which
tie charges "hat. although the company
has been ' running at a Ions, the price of
Its shares has been advanced by manip
ulation to fictitious values, and that In

' Tompkins was arrested at his farm near
Muhopac Falls, N, Y., and brought here
for arraignment. He could not find the
110.000 ball required and spent the night
In the Tombs.
The complaints on which the warrants
were Issued Is drawn under the federal
criminal code on information of Carter D.

Instance of alleged fraudulent use of the
rralls Is given as the mailing of a letter
on March 8. 1910, to Michael O'Brien of
Waterbury, Conn.

"There are 28,00b shareholders of the

Inspector Mayer In his statement, "many

Two million shares have been Issued at

Thus, argues the inspector In his state

the stock Is really worth as $400,000 Is to

FiCMERS SOT- PERTURBED Big Rules Fight
Brewing Rapidly
in Lower House
Question Arises Over Provision for
Recalling Bill from Standing
Committee.
BEN LOMOND. Cal., June 1.-The Jer
ferles camp was In an uproar yesterday
a result of Governor Olllett'a order to
stop the big fight
When Jefferles was first informed that
the governor had instructed the attorney
general to prevent the fight, he froie up,
and refused (o discuss the matter, but later
he made the following statement!
'I positively refuse to baliave Uie story.
I do not care what Is said, or who talked to
the governor over the telephone. I simply
will not believe that it is true. I do not
know much about law, but my understand

"Ulllett once said he could not stop the
fight, so how It he going to do It? I will
continue with my training until I am in
formed by the promoters that the affair
cannot come off."

he heard that the governor had personally rtle adoDted by the house,

WASHINGTON, June 16,-The next big
rules fight in the house of representatives
is brewing rapidly. All parties and all
factions of parties were occupied yesterday
with consideration of the proposition. The
leaders of both republican and democratic
parties, as well as the "Insurgents," were
engrossed with it.
The question has resolved Itself to what
the house shall do to provide means by
which a member may recall a bill or reso
lution hum a standing committee after
that committee has failed to report. In
short, tbs and sought Is how to prevent
legislation from being "smothered in com
mittee." One of the highest parliamentary author
ities on the republican "regular" side said
today that Speaker Heed and every speaker
succeeding him had been of the convic
tion that such a plan should be devised.
The difficulty of providing such a scheme
and at the same time not make It a ve
hicle for filibustering by a hostile minor
ity, has heretofore deterred action. It
is the general opinion now, however, that
the present session will see some suoh

liar Manner.
GIBBON, Neb., June 16. (Special.) Ray
Hodges was repairing a bicycle tire with
vulcanizer and had stepped out the west
door to examine the tire in the sunlight
and was in the act of stepping back in
the building today when the carbide tank
exploded, blowing both the north and south
ends of the building out and blowing
Hodges away from the door with the tire
around his neck.
Immediately a gasoline can exploded,
making two explosions almost In one.
Pieces of the carbide tank were blown
through the buildings in all directions,
cutting off boards like wet paper. Had
Hodges been a few seconds later stepping
outside, he would certainly have been
killed. As It was, his hair and eyebrows
were scorched. , His handkerchief In his
hip pocket was the only part of his cloth
ing that caught fire. Hodges says he had
Just closed the door behind him or he
would have been badly Injured, even where

telephone, he said:
"1 guess it Is true all right, but It Is
mighty hard to believe You must admit
that Ulllett does not seem to be the sort
of man who would let the promoters go to
all the expenso they have, and then throw
them down. Look at us fellows, who
travelled all the way across the continent,
spending our time and money. It seems
more like cruelty to me than Justice."
Jeff Little Perturbed.
It Is safe to say that Jeffries la the least
perturbed man In camp as the result of
the latest crash in the plans for the fight.
The entire camp following, including friends
and trainers, stood around In little groups
discussing what they considered a calamity
of the first magnitude. None of them could
understand why the governor took steps
toward the suppression of this fight, after
permitting the arrangements for It to pro
ceed so far.
While the camp was still boiling with
indignation over the governor's instructions
to his attorney general, a newspaper man
seeking Jeffries to ask him in regard to
the reported move to Salt Lake City, found
him blissfully slumbering in a tent cot on
the porch of his little cottage. Jeffries re
fused to say whether he would take the
promoters' $10,000 forfeit in the event of
their being unable to pull off the big con
test
The report of the governor's action took
all the enthusiasm In his work out of Jef
fries. He was to have boxed several rounds,
but passed It up. .
"Get the hook and lines. Jack. You and
will go fishing," he said, turning to his
brother. Jack, after he wakened from his
sleep late in the afternoon.

Like Jeffries, Johnson said he could not
understand -why Governor Ulllett had de
cided to step in and prevent the fight at
this late date.
The colored champion put in a busy day
on the beach today. lie ran twelve miles,
punched the bag and went through various
other training stunts before a large crowd
that had assembled to watch him.
After punching the bag viciously for fif
teen minutes, the big black took on Al
Kaufman for four rounds. Neither extended
themselves, though in the last few minutes
Johnson cut loose and hit the local boy at
will, bringing blood from Kaufman's mouth.
Throughout the bout Johnson hit Kaufman
aa many times as he wished.
Kid" Cotton then donned the gloves with
him and they went at It hammer and tongs.
Johnson hit Cotton a nasty blow when
coming out ot a clinch In the first round,
and brought blood from his mouth.
Throughout their short fight the champion
used his uppercut to good advantage, send
ing Cotton's head back several times. '
After the bout with Cotton, Johnson
umped on the scales. The beam tipped at
exactly 213 pounds. "Never felt better in
my life," he declared. "When I enter the
ring with Jeffries I expect to weight 20
pounds, possibly 211. After today there will
be no more road work, that is to say, no
long runs. Possibly I will limit the road
work to one Z20-yard dash. Most of my
work will be in the gymnasium.
Tomorrow I will box with Kaufman
again and do a few training stunts. Sunday
will be a big day for I will cut loose and
show the public my great condition. On
that day I intend to box about eleven
rounds and then some."

"Pleas urge on your committee that the

FARMER TOPS STEER MARKET
Shows what Nebraska Farmers May
Do by ITalna; Brains Saya Platte
County Will Have Fair Crop.
F. J. Llntner of Creston, Neb., brought
In two loads of steers yesterday which
averaged 1473 pounds eadh and which
brought $$.05 on the market. This meant a
gross price of $125 per head. The price paid
was the best for the season. Mr. Llntner is
a careful breeder of stock and has learned
a lesson not only with cattle, but with his
hogs. "Many farmers, and I was one also,
turn their breed sows in the feed lota along
with the cattle and allow the hogs Intended
to Increase the herd ot swine the same
treatment with those which ar kept for
market only," said Mr. Llntner. "I have
