California, Is Scene of Gruesome Sight When Miners Are Brought to Top by Their Comrades Jackson, Calif., Jackson, mining town In the Mother Lode country, has paid the toll demanded of those who delve In the earth for gold and stands unafraid but not Forty seven of her men died in the Argonaut mine early on the morning of August 28 she learned Monday. But Jackson is unafraid, for her men showed they knew how to die. Moreover, those who did not meet that fate showed they know how to live, for they gave of themselves without stint in the effort to save their entombed fellows. It was California's worst mine disaster, in one of California's greatest gold producers, and it was the hardest blow Jackson ever has had to suffer. For many weary days, disappointed some times by unexpected dlffucnlties and heartened sometimes by equally unexpected bits of good luck, rescue crews drove through the chocked tunnel that once had connected the two mines battered at the rock separating one of the Kennedy's drifts from the Argonaut's 4200 foot level. Early Monday a drill was driven through the last barrier of rock into the Argonaut. Sweating shoulders and unbreakable wills drove steel pick at the rock until this hole had been enlarged enough to permit a man to pass. Five men made a hasty and exploration of part of the Argonaut, seeking survivors at the Imminent risk of their own lives. The opening was enlarged so that a rescue crew could pass, and all day explorations went on without any result. The levels were clear, there was no sign of any miners left in them, either dead or alive. The rescue men, hampered by their oxygen helmets and the heat of the underground workings, turned their attention to exploring the the cross cuts and drifts leading from the tunnels already traversed. In one they found a bulkhead that had not been there when the miners went below that fatal midnight three weeks ago. Hope rose anew at this evidence that some, at least of the entombed men had not died at instant death from the pases thrown off by the fire in the shaft, and the rescuers pressed on. They found another bulkhead, not built of planks and timbers and stuffed with torn clothing like the first, but erected of earth, rooks and debris. It was a pitiful structure, gaping in places so that the rescuers could see through it, but it checked the air currents somewhat and the men in the oxygen helmets baited before It, afraid to tear It down while the air before It was poisonous lest they thereby cause sudden death to any who might be alive beyond It.

The soldiers' bonus bill is dead. President Harding's veto was sustained in the senate Wednesday by a vote of 28 to 44, after It had been overridden in the house by a decisive majority of 258 to 54. Reinforced by the defection of Senator MoKInley, Ilinois, and Senator Cameron, Arizona, Republicans, and aided by the absence of three "unpaired" supporters of the bill, the antlbonus forces mustered more than they needed to uphold the president. Seventy-twsenators were present and voting. To have obtained the ne s vote to override cessary the president's veto, the bonus advocates would have had to cast forty-eigvotes. They fell four short of this mark. Immediately after convening, the house, without debate, proceeded to vote on the question of passing the bill over Mr. Harding's objection. The resolution was an emphatic and overwhelming repudiation of the executive veto. The vote was nearly five to one, exactly the same ratio by which the hill passed several months ago. The measure was then rushed to the sennte, where, after e few hours' debate. It was killed. Only two changes In the senate lineup were brought about by President Harding's veto. Anouncement was made that Senator McKinley, now in Europe, If present, would have voted to sustain the president. He was paired with Senator Caraway, Arkan. sns, and Senator Jones, New Mexico, Democrat, who, if present, would have voted to override the veto. Senator Cameron who favored the bill when It passed the senate several weeks ago, was on hand to cast his vote in favor of the veto. House members from middle west states voted overwhelmingly to override the veto. Thirty-fivRepublicans snd nineteen Democrats voted to sustain the veto In the house, while 188 Republicans and 68 Democrats voted to ov. errlde It. President narding's support came largely from the east. He received some aid from the southern Democrats. In the house only seven votes were cast In favor of the veto by congressmen representing states west of the Alleghany mountains and north of the Mason and Dixon line. Delegations from the big western and middle western states cast their votes almost solidly in repudiation of the president's veto. In the Illinois delegation. Uncle Joe Cannon was the only member to vote to uphold the president. In the delegation from the president's own state of Ohio, only one member. Representative Himes, voted to sustain the veto.

President Harding on Thursday signed the tariff bill of 1922. The bill was signed shortly after 11 o'clock in the president's office in the presence of Chairman McCumber of the senate finance committee. Chairman Fordney of the house ways and means committee, a number of house members and others. Remarking that the measure had been "long in the making," President Harding, after he had affixed his signature with a pen presented to him by Mr. Fordney, who said he intended to keep it as a souvenir, said "that if we succeed as I hope we will succeed In making effective the elastic provisions of this bill this will prove the great contribution toward progress in tariff making in a century." One of those who witnessed the signing was Harry Parker, negro messenger for the house ways and means committee for the past 33 years. Parker was introduced to the president with the remark from Chairman Fordney that he had witnessed the signing of the Dingey, and Underwood tariff bills. In addition to Senator McCumber and Representative Fordney, those who witnessed the signing of the bill included Representative Hawley, Oregon, Timherlake, Colorado, .Hardley, Watson, Washington, Pensylvania. Young, North Dakota, Green, Iowa and Republican members of the ways and means committee. Treasury officials In discussing the new act said that although no reorganization of the customs service would be required, the staffs of the customs offices in a number of the larger ports of entry would have to be expanded to handle the increased volume of work. Payne-Al-dric- h Harding Signs Grain Trading Act Washington. The Capper-Tlnchbill providing for regulation of trading in futures on grain markets was signed Thursday by President Harding. The new act, which becomes effective November 1, was passed by Congress as a substitute for the regulatory provisions of the futures trading act of 1!f2l, which provisions were dt lared inoperative by the supreme court. It follows along the same lines as the act of 1!I21, except that it is based on the power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce while the statute to hlch the supreme court found objection was predicated on the taxing power of Congress. Grain exchange coming under the new act are those at Chicago, Minneapolis, Duluth, Ksnus City, St. Toledo, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Los Angeles snd Baltimore. Ford Plant Resumes Operation Detroit.

The Republicans are going home to praise the record of tills Congress and assure their constituents that a great era of prosperity lies just ahead as a result of the new tariff bill. They will also stress heavily the "business administration" inaugurated by the Republican administration. The Democrats are going to tell their constituents that the new tariff hill is to raise the cost of living in the United States some $:!OO.O00,O00 a year and they have organized a flying squauYon of speakers to tear down the business arguments of the Republicans. One fact the Democrats will stress is that the Republicans closed this session of Congress Vith a deficit of $Gr0,((iO,000 staring them in the face reported by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon as one of the chief causes of the bonus veto.

A few Senator Borah of Idaho Is Credited With Crystalizing the Feeling Which Caused the Act to Fall Washington. The comment of the on the ret leaders of the of the bonus bill, says Mark Sullivan, Is that the fight has just begun. The soldiers bonus is a settled not only for the present session ef congress, but forever. It will never again come so near to winning in any future congress as it did in this. It was passed by the house over the pres ident's veto. In every future congress the number of senators under the obligation of a. promise to vote for it will be smaller than in the present session and the number of senators who will feel free to oppose it will be larger. Furthermore, Harding's veto Is based not merely on the present state of the treasury, but on principle. Every reason that the president gave for his veto will continue to exist and wil even exist in a stronger form during the remainder of his term. So long as Mr. Harding remains In the White House, whether it is for the two and a half years remaining of his first term or for six and a half years if he should have a second term, he can he expected to veto any bonus measure that comes up. For that matter, the measure is not likely to be brought up again in good faith. Only In case there should be a congress politically hostile to the president and with a purpose to embarrass him is the bonus measure likely to be brought up in the future. The reasons that make the measure linposible of success will in time become so apparent that the agitation for the bonus win never again have ts large a popular backing as it had on this occasion. As a final reason the bonus proposal cannot be successful at any forseeable time in the future, it can be said that however unable the treasury is to stand the 9train this year it will be still less able at any time for several years to e, come. The treasury already faces the of a revenue which is .$'100,000,-D0- 0 short of enough to pay the appropriation. It may seem sensational to say so. but it is a fact that, even disregarding the bonus, taxes In this country are likely to become higher bt fore they become lower. The veto message was Harding at his best. It combined his familiar qualities of patient and tolerant reasonableness with complete firmness. In his veto he undoubtedly has had the suport of the best and the largest number of his advisers. Here in Washington we have understood that out of the ten members of the csibinet only one was in favor of the bonus and one other noncommittal and eigM against It. The bonus message has a dozen angles from which it must excite admiration even on the part of many who do not agree with it. His giving it the tone of an address to congress was both good politics and sound in principle. It Is a fact, as Harding implies throughout the message, that the bonus proposal arose not out of any solicitation from the but rather from the desire of members of congress and other politicians to do a thing which would consolidate the behind them politically. One final point: Whether you like or do not like this final outcome of the bonus, give the principal credit for it to Senator William K. Rorah, of Idaho. It was largely his aggressive eneriry that built up a following in the senate from almost nothing, and It was chiefly the outspoken courage of his speeches and writings that crystallized enough feeling throughout the country to bring about the present result. pro-Me- m Discard Donkey Emblem Mo The Ooddess of Liberty was ndopled unanimously by the executive committee of the state committee ns the emblem of the Democratic party In Missouri, speeding the donkey, which has served the Democratic party as Its emblem for many years.
