tory to a conclusion by ' tabling tho

In seven hours of tense, turbulent
session, In which the Administration
opiKHionts charged that tin* President
was eoutoiidlng for a doubted legal
light and wuh shifting tho ivsponsl
bllty of dplomato negotiations to
Congress, tho House swayed hack and
forth In tho most sensational congres
sional spectacle of a decade, prob
ably not equalled since the eve of the
declaration of war on Spain.
President Wilson, calm and coii;
lldeut. beard the early results of tho
voting In the Cabinet room at the
Whl to House wlrh some of the Cabinet
grouped about hltn. He told them
he was much gratllled with the sup

dent Wilson now stands prepared to go

step probably will be an answer to

The President and his advisers re
gard the action of the House today
as a sutiiclent answer to reports cir
culated In Berlin, sent from Washing
ton, that Congress stood two to one
against him Lu the crisis.
One of the day's surprises was the
failure of the so-called Rryan Influ
ences to develop any appreciable
strength against the President.
Stand by the President and do not
euibarass him in his diplomatic ne
gotiations with foreign countries,"
was the whole burden of the argu
ment of the Administration leaders.
They paid little attention to the In
volved legal phrases of the situation.
It was enough, they argued, that the
President had said the reported atti
tude of Congress as opposed to his
policy was embarassing him abroad,
and to that they stuck.
Tributes were paid to the President
by almost every Democratic speaker
from Acting Chairman Pou of the
Rules Committee, who opened the
debate to Chairman Flood of the
Foreign Affairs Committee. who
closed it.
"It is charged that the President
wants war;" said Mr. Pou. "All the

Another "Cottonseed KimhI"
A reader asks tho following question
regarding a so-called cottonseed feed:
"What about this foed fur dairy cows
and' tho 'guaranteed analysis".' Is It
ohoapor than cottonseed meal to ho
used In eonneef ion with silage?"

Composed of cottonseed moal and cot
ton soed hulls.
No ono can answer tho question pos
itively as to w hether It Is cheaper than
cottonseed meal, for the simple reason
that our inquirer does not state tho
price, either of this feed or of cotton
seed meal, on his market,
it Is quite safe to assume, however,
since this feed is made up of cotton
seed hulls anil meal and only contains
ahout one-half the protein eontaluod In
high-grade cottonseed meal, that It Ls
[iiiflt. cheaper than cottonseed meal.
It one of those so-called cotton
seed feeds which, while complying
with tho law, because the laws are de
fective, are put on the market, because
the manufacturers know that they can
feet more for their hulls and meal mix
ed In this way, than they can get for
thotii sold separately. They merely
take advantage of the Ignorance or
carclessuess of the buyers and the de
fective laws to sell a product for more
than It Is worth. Usually these so
called cottonseed feeds contain only a
little more than one-half the feeding
value of cotton-seed meal but sell for
only $3' to $5 a ton less than standard
cottonseed meal. With high-grade cot
tonseed meal selling for $37..r>0 a ton,
a feed like this should not sell for
more than $20 a ton, at the outside. ?

Insurance Companies to Leave Stale.
New York, March 3. ? Various , for
eign and American lire insurance com
panies that have been doing business
in South Carolina ar^ preparing circu
lars notifying tboir agents in that
state to suspend operations there, it
was said here today, and those com
panies that have not renewed their
South Carolina licenses which expire
April 1 are planning to allow them to
lapse.
This action Is understood, to be in
pursuance of an informal decision
reached at a gathering of representa
tives of these companies in this city
on Tuesday, at which consideration
was given to the lire Insurance brok
erage and anti-compact bills then pend
ing, in South Carolina, and which have
since been signed by Governor Man
ning. This decision by the companies
located here is declared to mean a vir
tual abandonment of their lire insur
ance operations in South Carolina.
Who Does This Concern?

swamp among our growing trees the
writer found a large tombstone with
the following inscription on it. "Sa

It \yn* i lecided to have another written

an attempt be made to spell these
