The Bee's staff photographer.
Mr. Schofield and photograph

Colfax did not approve of it and
placed The Bee photographer under
arrest. He made no attempt to ar

Mr. Schonfield was taken io the

City Prosecutor Murray dismissed
the case without allowing it to go

he termed "poor judgment."
The accompanying picture was

By E. C. SNYDER.

Washington Bureau, Qmaha Bee,
Washington, D. C, July 21. The
republican members of the Ne
braska delegation, upon call of
Judge Kinkaid, had a conference
Monday evening at the Washington
hotel with representatives of the Ne
braska potash industry, including
Charles P. Craft, Aurora; W. R.
Richardson, and James Fitzpatiick,
Lakeside, and Elmer B. Stephenson
of Omaha. W. E. Sharp, of Lincoln,
who had expected to be present at
the conference, was suddenly cabled
home. ,
The meeting discussed the need of
immediate legislation for the poUsh
industry,, so far as Nebraska is con
cerned ami took up the Fordvey
bill as the one most likely to receive
consideration at the hands of the
ways and means committee.
It developed at the meeting that
there was considgrable opposition
in the ways and means committee
to the licensing feature which the
representatives of the potash pro
ducers had hoped would be adopted
and which they originally urged as
outlined in the Henderson bill now
pending in the senate, but as it is
immediate heV from the importa
tion of the foreign products that the
Nebraska producers want, they indi
cated that any bill that would in
sure protection for the Nebraska in
dustry would be satisfactory to
them. They urged upon members
of the delegation to press for early
consideration of any measure that
would bring relief, for they were fac
ing a grave situation and immediate
legislation was necessary to avert
ruin to an industry that had been
built up as a war necessity.

kill the girl.
He told police and the county at

Approximately 20,000,000 Feet

Burned in One Place.
Live stock within the drouth
stricken area of Montana and from
Wyoming, west of Orin Junction and
Newcastle may be shipped to the
green pasturage of Nebraska at one
third of the regular freight rate, pro
viding that when. returned the regu
lar one-way rate is paid. This is the
information brought back from
Washington by Chairman Mont
morency of the Omaha district
freight traffic committee.
Mr. Montmorency went to Wash
ington, where before the officials of
the railroad administration he de
tailed the conditions maintaining in
Montana and certain portions of
Wyoming, explaining that unless re
lief was provided quickly stock
losses would be heavy.
The railroad administration autho
rized a one-half rate on all grain and
I feed shipped to Montana and. to
points in Wyoming west of New
castle and Orin Junction.
According to Mr. Montmorency,
indications are that within the next
few days large numbers of cattle,
sheep and horses are likely to be
shipped into western Nebraska,
where the pasturage was never bet
ter, and coming from the ranges of
Montana and Wyoming.
Already represenatives of the
western cattle and sheep men are
cn the Nebraska markets, buying
hay and grain to be sent west.

t Spokane, July 21. Forest fire
condition's in northern Idaho, west
ern Montana and eastern Washing
ton continue critical with several
threatening blazes, according to
federal forest service officials and
timber protective association
wardens.
The most serious fire was re
ported in the Pack river valley be
tween Sandpoint and Hope, Idaho,
where 35 to 40 square miles have
beep burned over by flames that
Monday were within two miles of
the Great Northern Railway tracks
and three miles front Naples, Idaho.
Neither was believed to be in
danger, however.
Between 10,000,000 and 20,000,000
feet of wlnte pine timber has been
destroyed bv this fire and the loss
is estimated as high as $80,000. Only
rain can stop the fire, it was de
clared, and the only hope is to guide
the fire away from the richest tim
ber in its path.
One man was arrested at Sand
Point in connection with aliened
incendiary fires and it is expected
another man will be arrested. Two
tire fighters were arrested at Koos
kia charged with accepting govern
ment transportation and refusing
to join a fire fighting crew.
The most serious situation in
Montana is in the Blackfoot forest
where four large blazes are being
fought. Many fires in the three
states were checked or put under
control Monday and they were
thought to be beyond the likelihood
of . increased danger, unless more
unfavorable weather conditions de
veloped. The high winds of last
week have abated.

Accusations of John Poole, presi

Stockmen from 13 western states
are gathered here in convention to
discuss questions of peculiar interest
to the cattle and sheep industry.
Discussion of placing public land

Monday's sessions. Tuesday a rtoiu

passage of a bill by congress to
place the public domain under fed

Secretary of Agriculture David F.

Monday. He predicted great stnT.es
in the cattle and sheep industry and
declared that the great areas of the
public domain were destined-, bar

not for agricultural purposes, but tor
