HOLDS THAT ELECTION IS VALID Me It Lorimer nil II U ol tknwi that Mr. Knew ef C'nrraptloa We Sol Safnrleat la Affect Rmtl. WASHINGTON. Feb. 13-P,y resorting lo the bold device of asking hi antagonist in the anate to eland up and testify. Senator Bailey of Texas today developed a dramatic situation In hl. discussion of the rase of Senator Lorimer of llllnola I Mr. Bailey la a member of the committee on privilege and election and coincided with th report declaring that nothing In validating Mr. Lorimer title to hia seat had been developed by the committee' ln veatlgatlon. Hia argument In aupiort of Mr. T.orlmer had been anticipated with much Interest, and when presented today received the thoughtful attention of many enatori. The Texan aerator's remnrka were de voted largely to the substantiation of his contention that a sufficient numb r of vote must be shown to ha e been bought to ef fect the result, unless it la proven that the official whose election Is challenged f-ersonally participated In the offense. Senators Root. Cummins and Borah, all opponent of Mr. Lorimer. wore each In turn requested to stand up and express their opinions as to the legal soundnes of this proposition. Two Propositions of I. aw. Dealing first with the general aspects of the case. Senator Ralley entered upon the consideration of the law Involved. He laid down these two propositions: rirst If the officer whoso election .Is challenged, personally participated In. -r encouraged, or sanctioned the brlhAYy. then his election Is void, without reference to the extn of the bribery. Second If the officer whose election i4 challenged, did not personally participate In, or encourage, or sanction the bribery, then his election cannot he avoided, tinier II is ahown by sufficient evidence that enough votes wrre bribed to effect the re ault. . The flrat of these propositions was dis missed with the declaration that there was not a word In the testimony tu show that Mr. Lorimer had any knowledge of anv bribery In hla behalf. He asserted that the Chicago Tribune had been compelled through lis attorney to exonerate the ac cused senator In this respect, notwithstand ing an unusual effort to connect him with tt. True, the acnator said, in the heat of debate some senators had sought to con nect Mr. Lorlmer with the alleged wrong ful transaction, but he was sure they would repent of that course. Mr. Bailey contended that even If the s- ven votes of White, Browne, Beckemeycr. I.lr.k, Wilson, Holstlaw and Broderick were not counted, Mr. Lorimer still had been legally and properly chosen. lalaa of Tainted Votes. "Deducting these aeven votea from Mr. Lorlmerg 108, would leave him 101, and de ducting these aeven votea from the total vote of 202, would leave 1. of which the lftl votes received by Lorlmer would con atitute a clear majority, and he waa there fore duly and legally elected," Instated Sen ator Bailey. fie ridiculed th contention of hia op ponents i that theae votea could be sub tracted from I,orlmer'a column and still be retained in the total vote, declaring the contrary view waa so elementary aa to render It almost absurd to present au thorities In support of It. "Wa hav the authority of the text books and of the courts for saying that an il legal vote must be rejected for all pur poses and that it cannot be considered for any purposes," the aenator continued. "That la not only the law and the logic, but it la the(rule beat calculated to promote political morality. It treats a dishonest vole aa if the corrupt legislator who cat It were civilly dead, at leant In that trans action and leaves the result to be deter mined by the votea of honest men." Mr. Haliey would not admit, as senator Boot, Borah and others had charged, that In demanding the total exclusion of dishon est votea, ha really was giving effect to such votes. On the contrary he undertook to turn the charge upon his antagonists. sajlng that allegations of taint had been made; against eleven members of the Illi nois legislature, he added: ouuiracung ineae eleven votea rrom a total of 203 we have an unchallenged membership of 191 members who by virtue of their position and of their Integrety mere qualified to elect senator. Of this U'l members ntnety-alx would be a majority. and after deducting every vote againat which the suggestion of dishonesty has been made Lorimer would still have ninety-seven as against ninety-four votes for his op ponent" Matter of Morals. "Under those circumstance no man could deny that ha was entitled to hi scat In thta senate as a matter of law, and alill let can they deny it aa a matter of morals, because he had a clear majority of the honest men In the legislature. Now, let u apply the rule proposed by the aenator from Idaho, Iowa and New York, and what result do we reach? "By keeping these eleven men In this equation they prevent ninety-seven honest men from effecting an election over ninety four honest men, and thla makes It plain that they are the gentlemen who are giv ing effect to the votes of rascals, because by preserving those votes they then pre vent an honest majority from working out Us will." Pet luring then that the law as be propounded tt would prove to be "thei beat protection against the baneful In-1 fitiem-e of the corruptionials In our politic,; Mr. Bailey concluded: j "No matter how honest the aentleini.ii! on the other aide may be. It Is still true. mai in luivinii iu reverse me precedents! uf the senate and overrule the court of I the country they are aeeking to estab-1 lih a doctrine that will permit a dishonest faction of a legislature to disable an hoiiotl majority from choosing a senator to repre- I ent their state." I llesle Admtselnn of Hrthery Mr. Bailey would not accept the proposi tion that there was admission that four mamhera of the llllnola legislature had b?en bribed. White, who had charged bribery, had been utterly contradicted and the substantiation of his chargra had been left entirely to the Chicago Tribune and others atanding with that paper. "Tou could not Impanel a Jury in Amer la M wwuld deprla a negro convict of a blind mule on such testimony." In the course of hla speech In support of Senator Lorimer, Senator Bailey today denounced a a forgery Mate Senator Itotstlaa'a name on the slip allowing bribe money raid lo hae been deoaited.

Wyoming Legislature Must Finish Its Work Within Week Initiative and Referendum and Kum ber of Other Measures Still on the Calendar. CHUTKNNR. Wyo., Feb. 13-f3peelal .) This is. the closing week of the Wyoming legislature and promises to be the busiest one of the forty-day session. While many progressive measures have been killed, and only one, the direct primary, haa been en acted Into law. several Imports nt measures are at. II being considered. Among these la the Initiative and referendum, upon which the membera appear to be equally divided. It Is believed a majority favor the enact ment of this legislation, but there Is a vast difference of opinion aa to some of the features of the bill. Some wish the per centage of voters necessary to Invoke the initiative and referendum placed at 25 per cent, while others feel that 15 per cent would be about right. Still others believe that wr cent la the only proper bast upon which to enact the law. The matter I now before the senate and early action Is an ticipated. Bills are now pending creating many board, commissions and state offices. Very few will pass. The bill providing for the reimbursement of Big Horn county In the sum of $25,000 for expenses Incurred In the prosecution of the Ten Sleep sheep camp raiders, who are now serving terms In the state penitentiary, will undoubtedly pass the senate, having passed the house last week. The bill to reimburse citizens of Casper, veterinarians and sheep inspector, for work in connection with an epidemic of Hp and leg ulceration among the sheep of Natrona county two years ago, will also pass. This measure appropriates between ! and $l.0oo for services, hotel bills, livery hire, etc. The bills were rejected by the State Board of Sheep Commissioners, to which same were, referred, two years ago on the ground that the board had no au thority to pay for work done which was not authorized by the board. Among the bills that have been buried was one by Mr. Tllden prohibiting the dis charge of firearms upon the property of others. This would have put an end to hunting In Wyoming. Among the recent bills introduced are two regulating the inspection and treatment erf sheep Imported from other states. Another provides for the establishment of a state reform school to be known a the Wyoming Industrial institute. Wyom ing's Juvenile delinquent are now ent to Colorado reform school for care and train ing.

County Boundary Fight in South Dakota Treasurers of Lyman and Stanley Countiees Are Collecting; Taxes on Disputed Strip of Land. PIERRE. S. P., Feb. 13.-(Special. 1-The regular semi-occasional "scrap" Ie on be tween Lyman and Stanley counties as to the ownership of a atrip of land betwen the two cqunllca. The resident have paid taxes In Stanley county, and the Lyman county authorities are selling the land for unpaid taxes. Several threat have been made of carrying the matter to the legis lature for adjustment by the definite fixing of the boundary line, but a the counties are both organized It would likely be out side of legislative Jurisdiction, and the cotirtr will no doubt be calied upon to straighten out the tangle, The trouble all arises over the fact that when county lines were established west of the river In early days, no one except Indians were affected, and there waa not the core In fixing dy finite boundaries, which might have been exi rclsed had there been property owners interested in getting them down to a hasla which would assure just where they stood na(,jwhen It came to tax paying and Jurladlc- tlon.

The Key to taa BituaUoa fcae Want Ads (TEACHER BACK FROM LONDON Miss Sullivan Tells of Frof. Wallace's Researches on Shakespeare. ALSO TELLS OF SUFFRAGETTES Sara Women of Enalantl Take Ike qaeatlna Mark More Serlonely Thaa Those of America More W em ea Tkaa Mrs, "English women are much more In earn est In their struggle for suffrage than are the American women," answered Mlas Mary T.. Sullivan, who haa Just returned to Omaha from Ixndon where for the last twelve months and more she haa been delv ing In the English archive for data ip regard to England' great dramatist. "For the English woman whose sympa thies are enlisted, the suffrage question Is the one great question. T have been asked by many of them why It Is that the Ameri can women are not more active. I replied that while Mi England woman' attention seems to be focused on this question, In this country women are Interested In a great many other questions." , "But again." Miss Sullivan said. "It was of Interest to compare the way the Ger man and English women approach the question. In Germany It la largely an In dustrial one. Women there, you know, have gone Into all kinds of work. Tn Mu nich I saw women wearing high boots and short skirt, loose coaas, not a evry at tractive costume, and standing in the mid dle of the streets, attending to their du ties as switch tenders. The English women would not do this. They think too much of dress, cling to the traditions of dress. They won't eyen discard their lace when they do assume the work In which such things are out of place. Among; Dusty Volumes. "For instance, in the records office where we worked, examining the records, were many of these women, students, research ers, and copyists, also examining the rec ords. It Is a very dusty place. Some of the records haven't been touched for centuries, t should say, and It Is a place for old clothes. Vet many of these English women wore lace cuffs, and dainty color. They cling to these things." Asked If she thought the English suf fragette wa near victory. Mis Sullivan re plied negatively. "They are afraid of It because there are so many more women than men. The men In power fear that If women are given the right to vote It will mean that It will soon become woman's uffrage, not equal suffrage." Miss Sullivan, who followed the march of the women during the now famous No vember riot In a taxlcab, saw many of the stirring incidents when the marcher and policemen clashed. She terms It a most Impressive demonstration, fully prov ing the earnestness and courage of the women In line, "and these women Included women from all stations of life." Of Prof. Charle William Wallace, and hi Shakespearean discoveries, Misa Sulli van speaks with much enthusiasm. The English, she say, give htm honor for his discoveries and yet "some feel a bit dis gruntled to think that an outsider should have come In and discovered these records." A bill has been Introduced in parliament recommending that Prof. Wallace' dis coveries be investigated and recognized. As a student searching the official rec ords for Information In regard to the real Shakespeare and the happenings of his time. Mis Sullivan said she found It most Interesting to witness the performance of George Barnard Shaw' latest play which deals with the love atory which popular fancy ha woven Into or from Shakes peare' aonnets: "The Dark Lady of the Sonnets." Mies Sullivan called the play "very amusing." Misa Sullivan resumed her duties as teacher in the high school Monday, and wa kept very busy after the session saying how-dy-do to the many students who were eager to welcome her back.

Practically the same rule should be applied If It is sought to prove bv him on such cross-examination, admls a na against his Interest. There Is no error In sustaining an objection to a ques tion asking If it Is not a fact that during the litigation the witness has given under oath four different versions of the contract which he claims he has made with defend ant on a date prior to Its reformation, with out specifying any of the "different vers ions."

'. . ! very "'"eh larger than on any recent day and about double the receipt on Monday of last year. Unfortunately for the activity of the market a number of trains were very late in arriving at the yards, so that when It waa time for the market to open only a portion of the esti mated run wa In ight. Late traina al ways contribute toward a alow market, buyera being Inclined to wait until every thing is in sight, with the Idea that they will have more cattle from which to make selections. Another fact that wa against the selling Interests waa the large receipts reported at all other markets with some of them at least quoting a break in price. The weather was also againat the seller, there being a heavy fog and mist during the greater part of the morning, which did not help the appearance of the cattle. The quality of the receipt waa also poor, the great big bulk of the arrivals being made up of traahy old thin cowa. half fed and traahy steer and with very little tn the way of really desirable atock. The market opened extremely alow and dull and the forenoon waa well advanced before the cattle were yarded and ready to be shown and before buyera seemed willing to get down to business. The trade continued to drag from atart to finish and It waa unaually late in the after noon before anything like a clearance wa effected. The best beef steer, owing to the fact that the supply of that kind of cattle wa small, did not show much change aa com pared with last week's close. On the other hand the common to fair kinds were slow and weak to lOBIoc lower at least. Cows and heifers were anywhere from weak to 10ft 15c lower and in some cases possibly worse than that. Feeder were very hard to move and they suffered fully aa much aa killers. Quotation on cattle: Good to choice beef steers. 6.O0.4O; fair to good beef ateera.

Chicago drew SO.OuO head, a supply that la much heavier than the heavleat estimate Saturday. Other markets were liberally supplied and the local recelpta were the largest for a Mon day since June of laat year. Prices broke sharply under pressure of crowded shipments and decline were gen eral. Bulk of local buslneoa appeared to be right around 10c lower than at last week's close, average cost settling around the 1, tiO mark. Iorig airings held at a apread. however, tope were decidedly low. Packera bought the big end or ri-ceipi only a few scattered loads moving through shipping and speculative outlets. Iiemand waa quiet from the atart. resulting In a rather late clearance.

Sheep met with a healthy demand at steady to strong figures, while lambs were slow t possibly a little lower. Suppliea were fully normal and con alsted largely of ewea and lamba, the per centage of wether and yearling being sea onably email. Buying preference naturally centered upon good grades moving around S4-20IH4.23, and a atrlctly choice article reaching 4 36. The latter price. It will be noted. Is a dime higher than extreme sales last week. Weth ers of dressing promise brought 14.25, Indi cating a top quotation little if any higher than actual top on ewea Best yearlinga available aold at and around Si 00. The easier condition of lamb trade was generally credited to Influence arising from doubtful tone to trade at eastern polnta. None of the regular buyers acted very friendly to stock of this description and clearance was draggv and late. Most pf the stuff sold at levels weak to a little lower, best atringa selling at S3.RS snd less. The market was poorly supported In all Its branches by country buyers and a lack of activity In ahearer trade waa at least partially responsible for the dull movement of lambs. Offerings suitable fo- shearing and final finish are selling on much the same basis as good quality killers. Quotations on sheep and lambs: Good to choice lamba.
