HARVESTER TRUST SECURES ITS POWER THROUGH COMBINES (Continued from FnRe One,) cal effect In handicapping competition. "Special discriminatory prices an.i terms have been reported In a number of Instances, but the general policy of the company Is to maintain high price In the monopolised lines; In the principal new lines, "however, where considerable competition Is encouraged, unusually low prices and long terms have been gen erally employed. Control of Iletall Price. "The company at one time openly at tempted, through a clause In Its com mission contracts, to control the price paid for Its machines by the farmer to the retail dealer. Since the elimination of this clause, suggested retail price lists have been rather generally circulated by some of Its branch offices, apparently for the purpose of Indirectly maintain ing the retail price, although the com pany contends that these lists are In tended for the use of Its employes In furnishing Information to purchasers and professes to discourage their lssu- ance to dealers. It Is evident, however, thst It could completely stop hls prac tice If It really wished to." Although new competition of great sig nificance has begun to appear, the com- mlssloner points out that the combina tion In lll still had about 6 per cent ot the production of binders, 78 per cent of the production of mowers and 72 per cent of the production of rakes, in manure spreaders, he adds, it appeals to have one-halt of the business; indlsk harrows, approximately 40 per cent, and to be Increasing its proportion In several other lines, such as wagons and gasoline engine. Not Overcapitalised. The extraordinary over-:apltalliatioi which characterized most of the large Industrial consolidations or the period ot IKK to 1D01 was nbscnt In tha case nf the International Harvester company," says Mr, Conant. The original capital of $120,000,000 Included $60,000,000 In iah and 160,000,000 representing the appraisal value of the plants, Inventions, etc. The commissioner points out several alleged excessive valuations, but jays that the value ot the properties plus the cash capital covered substantially 90 per cent Of the 'capital stock Issued, and holds that a fair valuation for "good will," which .was not Included In tho assets; would likely have met the remaining 10 per cent. The stock of the company, says Com missioner Conant, has been closely nolrt bj the former Interests, the McCormlclt and Deerlng families having throughout held a large majority of the total, while considerable amounts have clso been re tained by other stockholders. This fact," he continues, "assumes especial Importance In view of tho pend ing dissolution sUlt of the government against the company." Dissolution Plan. Pointing to the recent action of the company In splitting Into two corpora.; ttonn, each with $70,000,000 capital stockr one retaining the old harvester machine plants and the other taking over the new lines and foreign business, Mr. Conunt comments; "If fthla la Intm!i1 as nflrt nf n ntitn . . . . - - - tor Ultimate disintegration of the comoi-i nation, In the opinion of the bureau It Is unsatisfactory." The Investigation, the report says, dis closed low rates of profits in the early years of the combination, partly owing to Imperfect organization and Internal Jealousies, lut much higher rates In re cent years? averaging about lSVi per cent Ir 1909-1911 on net assets (exclusive of good will), according to the bureau's estimates. Generally speaking, says the commis sioner, the prices obtained by the com pany on foreign sales are relatively higher than those In the domestic mar ket, netting In some cases a lower mar gin of profit. GUESTS THRONG WASHINGTON (Continued from Page One.) the reminiscence of the years that had preceded. "I want you to believe me," he said, "when I say I shall never lose the con sciousness of those years. I would be a very poor president if I did lose It. 'I have always believed that the real rootages of patriotism were local; that they resided In one's consciousness ot an Intimate touch with persons, who were watching htm with a knowledge ot his character. "You cannot love a country abstractly; you have got to love it concretely. You have got to know people In order to love them. You have got to feel as they do In order to have sympathy with them and any man would be a very poor public sen-ant. who did not regard himself as a part ot the public himself." An outburst of applause arose from the crowd after the speech. A line was formed and Mr. Wilson shook hands (jr nearly an hour. It was the climax of a busy day for Mr. Wilson. He had witnessed the inaugura tion of his successor In Trenton and spoken a farewell. to the members of the legislature. The afternoon he devoted to packing. Just before dinner all the Princeton mall carriers, who have borne the heavy mail of the president-elect since he first en tered public life, came In a body to sav good-bye. Friends called In a continuous stream. Practically the whole town sail good-bye to him tonight and the farewells will be continued tomorrow. Take Warntnar.

WORK OF LAST CONGRESS Sixty-Second Session Marks Epoch Making Party Struggle. RECIPROCITY FIGHT COMES FIRST Srvrrnl I'crmmnl Contest of I.nstluir Varvr TnUe 1'lner nn! Mnny I in liortnnt CliniiRr Are In niiRnratril. WASHINGTON. March i-WIth the ad Journment of congress Tuesday noon, the end will be written to two years of epoch-making struggle within party ranks; and to three sessions of effort, only partially successful, to ndjust the differences between a democratic house, a senate under democratic-progressive (ontrol in) a republican president. Many Important pieces of legislation Imvo been inacted within that time, in vestigations of n peculiar signlflcnJice to the public unve been conducted; and many subjects of general Interest have been laid aside without action. The tariff, at tacked alike from democratic and repub lican sources twice during that period, has been the subject of attempted re vision ,but none of the proposed changes became effective. The Sixty-second congress opened Iri 1911 with a special session called by Presi dent Taft to consider Canadian recip rocity; It ends with an extra session of the Sixty-third congress only a few weeks away, to be called by President Wilson for a general revision of tho Payne-Al- drlch tariff law. National conventions, the birth of a new party, a general flec tion and u complete chango of adminis tration mve Intervened between its be ginning and Its end. Activities of the short session now closing have been limited almost entirely to routine worjc, because of the determination to leave to tho new administration all of tits Im portant subjects of a general charctor. Accomplishment ot Session. Perhaps the most Important develop ments of the entire congress are the following: New federal bureau of labor created. wltii cabinet officer at its head. Physical valuation of the property of railroads and other common carriers to form basis tor rate making. Canadian reciprocity law passed, but rejected by Canada. Wool, cotton, metal and. free list bills passed, but vetoed by' President Taft, Constitutional amendment for popular election of senators submitted to the states. Shipment of liquor Into prohibition states forbidden by law. Arbitration treaties with Great Britain and France negotiated, but failed of ratification because of changes made by the senate. Termination of the treaty ot 1832 with Russia demanded by congress. Notice served on the world by the sen ate that the United Stntcs will not per mit foreign nations to secure military op naval footholds where they might threaten the safety of this country. Children's bureau created In Depart, ment of Commerce and Labor, Panama canal law passed, establishing free passage for American coastwise ships and barring railroad owned ves sels from the canal. Campaign publicity laws passed, re quiring a complete public nccountlng of all campaign funds. William Lorlmer declared not entitled to seat as senator from Illinois. Judge Robert W. Archbald of commerce court Impeached and convicted on charges of Judicial misconduct. Money trust Investigation conducted, disclosing detailed methods of present- day financial operation. Campaign expenditures. Investigated, covering campaign funds of 1KH, 190S and 1912, and disclosing correspondence be- tween John D, Archbold of tho Standard 01 lcompany and members of congress.

Tito Personal S ninnies. trfTh These comprise but a few of the laws passed, investigations conducted, treaties I nasned on. nnd legislative subjects con Bldered during the two years of the Ifitxtv - second congress. The two great ' . t tnvnlulnv William struggles. Involving William , I'd bu mw Lorlmer and Judge Archbald, ran throughout the congress and with thel' Interesting personal phases helped to draw attention from the actual legislative work of the two years, While congress passed an eight-hour law covering all government contracts ex. cent on the Panama canal. It took no action on three Important subjects; antl Injunction, workmen's compensation, and anti-trust legislation. Recommendatlona were made by a senate committee within the last week, for radical changes In the anti-trust law. to restore competitive con ditolns and prevent monopoly; and they may bear fruit In legislation under the new administration. The final session, now ending, has wit nessed a struggle In the, senate betweep republicans and democrats, that prevented the confirmation of the greater part of President Taft'a appointments. With more than 2.000 appointments before the senate, democrats declined to permit action on the great majority, and th"i result will bo that President Wilson wilt fill the places after he comes Into office This factional struggle, coupled with the Internal democratic contest for the organization and control of senate and house iwder the new administration, In. Jected the political equation Into the last session's work to an unusual law In tha closing days ot this session have been held back because democcratlc leaders preferred to have the subjects carried over until a democratic president, senate and house1 can have an opportunity to carry out definite legislative progrvas. Important actions in the short sexslon Just closing Include: "Literacy test" Immigration bill pasred, COLD and GRIPPE I Will Refund Your Money If My Cold Remedy Fails to Cure HHiyon My Cold Remedy will relieve the head, nose, tbroat and lungs almost Immedi ately, and prerent Pneumonia, Bronchi tis, Grippe and other disease.

Tnrirr Vetoes. j The democratic majority that took con- i trol of the house when the congress or ganized Insisted on going ahead with other features of tariff revision, and passed wool, cotton, free list and some other bills. All three measures with the i nld of tho progressive republican forces In the senate, reached President Taft. They were vetoed on the ground that the tariff board was conducting Investiga tions, the result of which must be known before a proper revision of the tariff could be made. Legislative work throughout the special session and the long session beginning In December, 1911. and running through last August, Included the fololwlng: Increase In the size of the house of representatives from 396 members to 435 members.

COMMERCIAL CLUB HITSjbWELL BILL (Continued from Page One.) erles, as It said to us, "You've got to s'.mt off your water and take water from us.' "Another section of the bill gives more power to the Water Board of Omaha than has the czar ot Russia. It reserved the right to take away out very liberty. A section of It says, 'If you Interfere In any way with our plans, obstruct the digging up and demolishing of your property bv us you arc to be fined and Imprisoned." City Attorney John A. Bine. In refut ing some of Howell's arguments that all tho present bill does Is to extend the Jurisdiction of the Water board while maintaining the same laws that govern Its operations now, declared that not a section of the Howell bill maintains the same conditions that govern the Water board now. He pointed out that the Howell bill will throw, off the election laws which govern nil other branches jf the government and give to the Watsr board, a body of seven men, the power to call an election and determine ltslf the result of the election. Chairman Howell defended his bill chiefly by a tirade on the stock yards and the beef trust, declaring that the In stallation of a wator plant at the stock yards would cheat Omaha out of the interest on $4,000,000. Hp said that when the present board came into power it found that 45 per cent of the water from the Omaha plant went to the stock yards, a distance of twelve to fourteen miles. The Water board found that It had co'mplcto authority over Omaha, but limited authority over South Omaha. He gave a history .of the injunction suit brought against the stock yards and Un franchise granted the stock yards by the South Omaha city council. The Water board thought that the action of the council was against public policy and the franchise would be found to be Invalid, He cited Boston and San Francisco a examples of cities which have water dis trict laws "similar to the one he pro. poTs for .m?h"-" The rest of tho Water board man ager's arguments followed along the same line, similar to his presentations of the, proposition before the legislative commit- tees at Lincoln and before Omaha organi zations. At the beginning of the evening's argu ments he asked Chairman Yost to allow Everett Buckingham to present the stock yards' side of the case. Buckingham answered that he had not heard the Water board's arguments. "We have been Invited here," he said, "to hear this bill presented to the execu tlve committee of the Commercial club and the board's side of it. After hear ing the bill and explanation we1 'cap present our side. The meeting was called for Mr. Howell's benefit." i llnlf-x llnrillr Mentioned, There followed some discussion as to who was to start the debate and the time which Bhoulj be allotted each side. Vic tor Row'iitei- laughingly suggested that before thn affair began agreement should be reached that no reference be made to water rates. Incidentally, it turned out that' ve,-y little was said in defense of present rotts. The excrutlv committee quickly agreed that one hour should be given each side, but tho rule was rc-voked after two hours. as It was found that there were many ob jections fv be entered against tho bill be sides thos- from tho stock yards.
