Both Houses Reconvene After Holi day Vacation This Week a Busy One President's Special Message Transmitted to Congress Yester day. Both houses of Congress recon vened after the holiday vacation at noon Tuesday but adjourned after brief sessions out of honor to the memory of the late Senator A. J. McLaurin, of Mississippi. Senator elect Gordon, McLaurin's successor, was present and took the oath of of fice yesterday. Representative Adair, of Indiana, made a 20-mln-ute speech in the House on govern ment extravagance. MR. MANN'S BILL. A bill making sweeping changes in the interstate commerce law for the regulation of railroads was In troduced in the House by Represent ative Mann of Illkmls. The bill is not in accord with the "administration bill" which was prepared under the direction of Pres ident Taft. Instead of providing a special court to hear interstate com merce cases it would create a bu reau in the Department of Com merce, to be known as the the bu reau of transportation, where a shipper may file complaints against a railroad. If justice Is found in the complaint, the Attorney General would examine it, and if satisfied that a cause of action exists, that of ficial would file .a petition with the Interstate Commerce Commission and prosecute the case at the cost of the government " : In the meantime the shipper would not be deprived of the privi lege of bringing an action before the Interstate Commerce Commiasion at his own expense, as the present law provides. The till enlarges the powers of the Interstate Commerce Commia sion In the matter of fixing and changing rates and would amend the law so that in no case should a charge for a short haul exceed the charge for a long one. It would also orohibit any through rate which Is more than the aggregate of the local rate. Every sMpment upon which a rebate ts paid would constitute a separa'e offense, and railroads would be permitted to pay for advertising No 236 W. Main Ave. Only Semi-Weekly their time tables in newspapers with transportation. SHIP SUBSIDY BILL. A bill for ship subsidy, which its author, Representative Humphrey of Washington, says has the approval of President Taft, was introduced "in the House today. Increases In pay to American ships carrying mails to South Amer ica, China, Japan, Australia, the Philippines; an increased tonnage tax on trans-oceanic trade and the admission of foreign built ships to American register for foreign trade, are some of Its features. It is proposed also to pay second claes ships at the same rate for car rying mails as first-class ships are paid. The same subsidy now given to ships of 8,000 tons and 20-knot speed will be extended by the new bill to ships of 5,000 tons and 16 ' not speed. To secure the subsidy, the ships nust be 'built on plans approved by Mie Secretary of the Navy, carrying 'our or more gunB of not less "than '-inch caliber; carry American boys nd train them In seamanship, be ifflcered by American men. They nust always be at the demand of lhe government. It is provided that the amount ex tended for subsidy in one year can not exceed the estimated revenue 'rom foreign mail service for that vear. None of the existing lines will benefit from the bill, the author says, and he estimates that about $1,000,000 a year will come in from the Increased tonnage tax on foreign vessels. Wednesday the Mann bill, provid ing for the administration of the Panama canal zone and centralizing the government thereof In the Pres ident of the United States, passed the House by a strict party vote of 119 to 102, the Democrats fighting every Inch of the way and delaying the final rote till 6 p. m. Section 2 of the .bill, which confers on the President military, civil and Judicial powers, Including the power to make taws, was the object of spirited at tack. . The bill as it goea to the Senate, authorizes the President to have eompleted the Panama canal and to appoint a director-general of the ca nal and the "canal sone thus doing away with the canal commission. It Invest the Judicial-power of the zone in one circuit court and such Inferior courts a the President may constitute and allows appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States in Gaston County in civil caees involving $5,000 and in criminal cases punishable by death or life imprisonment. Trial by jury is granted in all criminal prosecutions for felony. Since the expiration of the Fifty eighth Congress, there has been no act in terms authorizing the govern ment of the canal zone, but Presi dent Roosevelt continued in exist ence the civil government on the zone after the act of April 28, 1904, became effective automatically. INVESTIGATION ORDERED. Investigation of the Ballinger Pinchot controversy is ordered by a joint resolution today introduced In the Senate by Mr. Jones, and in the House by Mr. Humphrey, both of Washington. As heretofore announc ed the provision is for the broadest kind of public inquiry, the resolu tion being of the character requir ing the signature of the President which gives to it all the force of general law. A committee of twelve Is to be appointed to conduct the investiga tion, six of whom ehall be designa ted by Vice President Sherman' and six by Speaker Cannon. Unques tionably Senator . Nelson, chairman of the Senate committee on puhlic lands, : will head the list of Senators and this doubtless, will result In his selection as chairman of the Joint committee.

J7-14M15-22 Gastonia, N. C. BICKETT ON NEAR BEER. Famous Description of This Bever age' Going all Over the Country Knjoys a Good Yarn. Washington Correspondent of The Charlotte Observer. T. VV. Bickett, Attorney General of North Carolina, is In the city. As the State learns this fine son of Un ion, who combines the blood of the Covlngtons and Bicketts of Mon rce, it will realize two things: First, that he is a full grown man, and second, that he is a very able law yer. With all of his sense, his learn ing and his oratory, however, he ia a bully good fellows-one who likes a joke, a pointed yarn, or a ridicu lous situation. Therefore, when he comes to Washington, it Is a real pleasure to hear him talk, and to get his ludicrous views "of men and aft fairs. Who could have said smarter things about our old Tar Heel friend, near beer, than this brilliant young attorney? What fine humor! What a sense or the absurd!;. Listen: "What is near beer?" he asked. : "The testimony in this case shows .that it is a beverage that finds ready, sale as a substitute for real beer; Our bibulous 'constituents cry for It as the children cry for Castorla. It is made by .' the people, who make beer, and drunk by the people who drink beer. It looks like beer, smeels like beer, tastes like beer. It is served by the same white aproned many chinned friend who 'Was wont to comfort us in other days. ' It is shoved across the "bid oaken counter,, and the mlrrowed. ba'ck L bar,.. with the picture of Aphrodite springing from the foam makes the illusion complete. And aometlme In the gloaming the alchemy of a shadow projected from a policeman's expan sive back and fall lnge athwart the bar, works a transformation 'and1 suddenly, even a the : thirsty one lifts the cup to his Hps. near beer becomes the real thing.-; . . . . "And yet this court, la asked to relegate this lusty beverage, this fcclbn of centuries of vats to the In sipid level of soda water! : Perish the thought! Itvproc1afms Itself la North Carohna-a sole heir and us" cesser to the gaudy fluid. . It boast of it bubble, and sparkle and snap. It aays. re the disconsolate legions to an arid land. 'I.tnay not he entirely wicked hut try me.' It capitalizes it kinship wtth Budwelaer and Schlltx. It acorns soda water ; a Roosevelt scorn a mollycoddle, and lord It over grape Jake like a mint 1910 julep over a milk shake."-" ' This eloquent attack on near beer has been copied in every section of the country. It has legs and will keep on going. Bickett can be seri ous when the occasion demands, but' he would rather laugh than to cry. AGRICULTURAL OUTLOOK. Present Outlook is that World Can not Next Season Produce Suffic ient Cotton to Put Price Lower Than Twelve Cents Danger of Overplanting. YorkvIIIe Enquirer. As matters now standi we do hot' think that there is a reasonable nrnhnhllltv thnt tho umrlri will h . able to make, enough cotton next.. year to reduce the price below 12 cents not on the ordinary basis of supply ana aemana. Jhe most serious danger to next year's prices, as we view the situa tion from-this point, is that because, of the attractiveness of present flg: ures, an unusually large number of . . .. ' V - .v people 'are likely" toJ be" induced to go Into cotton raising-onr a ' speculative credit, basis' and on' being squeezed to sell next fall on a temporary glutted market, the bears will.be able to make use of the opportunity to heat down' prices ' '' " Jl vw aUVfcIU aiv uui fcv" log to lose sight of .the faot that 'at the nreAAnt Hma lnHnn lm - - iwij .isi j little higher In propoctlqn . to, pther commodities, such ai corn,o meat etc., than when'' cotton' was ' only 8 oents a pound, and they 'ehbuldovs' m msiuueives accoratagiyv . ,.
