Montana Plaindealer

THE MONTANA PLAINDEALER PROSPERITY! UNION! UNION! REPUBLICAN STATE TICKET CHARLES N. PRAY Clerk Supreme Court JOHN T. ATHEY Railroad Commissioner E. A. MORELY On the question of procedure or our people on the State issue in the pending campaign here should be no hesitation or quioration as to our stand, notwithstanding the strenuous political stunts in various sections of the country. It is very necessary that the principles even which are asked for by the progressive element of the party, an only be obtained by a republican Congress. So the way a plain and straight, elect a republican Congress and the processes will see to the rest. CHIEF JUSTICE THEODORE BRANTLEY FOR RE-ELECTION The present Chief Justice theodore Brantley of the supreme court on his eminent record in that position should receive a hearty support from all classes to succeed himself. The law making the courts of the state non-partisan is a good one and such being the case Montana with a Supreme Court of eminent jurists as it now has should keep it intact. The decisions of this tribunal with chief Justice Brantley at its head ranks second to none in the entire United States. In all of his decisions the prominent strain has been in the interest of the masses of the people and there is no question that in the pending campaign that or Chief Justice of Montana's supreme court that Judge Brantley will have a loyal support from all classes. The Western Negro Press Association wil meet in Muskogee, Okla., Nov. 26 and 27. We think the executive committee used good judgment in calling the meeting at this time of the year. It will make it possible for a larger attendance and a more enjoyable trip for those who must travel a long distance to be present. We note that the Hon. Nick Childs Stalwart of the Stalwarts off the reservation in The republican congressional campaign text book says that there are: 512 Afro-American employees in the Chicago post office drawing salaries aggregating $400,000 per annum. Also in Mobile, Ala., there are employed in the post office as clerks, 17 colored and 16 white all of the 32 letter carriers are colored. Also all the letter carriers of Muskogee, Okla., are colored and draw annually $10,260.00, also 30 employees in the Montgomery, Ala., post office who draw salarier aggregating $27,-000 annually. POLITICAL Capt. Adamson is out running all the entries in the contest for Constable in Helena Township with A. J. Walton a good second. Cap is decidedly popular with all classes of the voters and will receive a strong support all along the line. A. J. Walton, his running mate on the Republican ticket will also surely win the people recognize in him a successful business man and hard worker who deserves success and on all sides he is gaining support daily. Adamson and Walton will be the winners for Constables and this is as it should be, the other candidates are dubs and will not bein the running. And we wonder if Judge Horn thinks that he will be in the race for Justice of the Peace. Sheriff M. L. Higgins has made an excellent record in that office and no doubt will receive an endorsement at the hands of the voters at the coming election. It is strictly up to the republican voters to elect A. J. Walton. Johnny Frey has been nominated by petition to make the race for Constable if he shows no more strength running independent that he did when he ran for police judge and that received in the democratic convention, he will get the booby prize. Judge Terrence O'Donell has made good as Justice of the Peace for his first term and no doubt will be re-elected. If the politicians stand for fake hold-ups and some imposters around with voting lists doing business for the colored voters, it serves them right and they should never holler. M. O. J. Arnett, the old warhorse is spinx-like on the political situation. And E. Johnson it cannot be told just where he is at on some of the aspirants. Both the republican and democratic candidates are now doing overtime in their zeal to present their merits to the voters for political preferment. Congressman Chas. N. Pray will make a progressive campaign and be triumphantly re-elected. University, which is from Washington, D. C 1895, and the following the district court in Ja With Walton as constable and the old realiable Cap. Adamson to show him the ropes Helena Township will have an excellent brace of peace officers M. L. HIGGINS FOR SHERIFF. Martin L. Higgins, the present incumbent of the Sheriff's office of Lewis and Clark county has been deservedly re-nominated for the second term, he has faithfully and with credit to both himself and the voters who elected him, performed the duties pertaining to his office, and should receive even a larger M. L. Higgins republican candidate for second term as sheaiff Lewis and Clark couny. He has at all times been affable and courtous to everyone from the highest to the most humble. And, no doubt, will receive a hearty support and be triumphantly elected for his second term. HON GEO. H. WOODSON The following is a clipping from the Albia Republican of Albia, Iowa, relating to our former townsman Geo. H. Woodson who only last year paid us a flying visit out here, many will remember the banquet given him at the A. O. U. W. Hall on 6th Ave. No doubt his many friends appreciate his success and are gratified of the recognition accorded him at his home. He lives at Baxton, Iowa. There must be satisfaction in the mind of George H. Woodson, of Buxton, in the achievement he has made in the study and practice of law. It was the case of a young colored boy without finance and without backing. Down in his heart he had set a place that was reserved for a mark among the lawyers of the world. There was no money to attend college, so he "worked his way through." This was probably done with some misgivings on the part of his pride, but every thought was put behind him when the question of making a lawyer of himself arose. He was studious and he worked hard and left the college with high honors. Then he came out to the broad prairies of Iowa, where he had employment in the attorneys' office in Oskaloosa. Following that he came to Monroe county. He graduated from the Howard University, which is just out from Washington, D. C., in June 1895, and the following term of the district court in January he was admitted to the practice. You can tell us the "poor boy" has no show in the world if you want to, but it is met with the record of a little colored boy who devoted all his time to make good in a profession and who now has a practice which extends all over the State of Iowa. While Mr. Woodson is located at Buxton he retains an office with a partner at Des Moines, and has business in all the courts. He was born December 15, 1865. All his life he has been a consistent republican and at the next primary will be a candidate for legislative honors from this county. From the humble log cabin to a seat in the Iowa legislature is a long step, but that step has been taken by many a man before. THOS. H. SPRATT FOR ASSESSOR For County Assessor, Thos. H. Spratt who has so faithfully served the people as Auditor for the past four years is the Republican candidate. We have known Mr. Spratt ever since we have been publishing this paper and know him to be friendly to the progress of all the people and there should be no hesitation in giving to him a hearty support. Billy Wheaton, Republican candidate for County Clerk is one of the wide awake, hustling young Republicans of Lewis and Clark county, and the people could not lend their support to a more worthy man for this position. On a recent visit to Butte, looking up our subscribers, we had the pleasure of meeting Police Magistrate McGowan whom we found a very affable gentleman and he deserves all the praise which is given him on all sides for the manner in which he has conducted that office. BUTTE NOTES The political pot in Silver Bow is now boiling in earnest with four tickets in the field. The colored brother is not yet enthused over the republican ticket, with that party in power both in the county and city two years ago they absolutely failed to in any way recognize the colored voters and so far as the local ticket is concerned, they seem to think one's goodas another. The only patronage that the colored voters have had in this city for many moons was under the McGinnis administration which was Democratic. We want more republicans like M. Gillis, the old Republican wheel horse. J. D. Gancey and L. C. Sheets went hunting but did not bring back any deer. Ike Hayes seems to be very active among the politicians. Ike is a valuable man as he knows everybody and everybody knows him. Rev. W. J. Tolliver will leave Wednesday to take up permanently, his new charge at Great Falls.

O. 201 161 The colored voters are to have several meetings here during the next 10 days to try and get together for the interest of the entire race in this city. On a recent trip to Butte we met the genial County Attorney T. J. Walker, and found him one of the most affable and courteous officials that it has been our pleasure to meet, our mission was not political, but regardless of this we shall not hesitate to say that we found him to be absolutely impartial and that in the conduct of his office he gives to all regardless of color or nationality a square deal. COLORED AMERICANS GAIN 14.397 ON U. S. PAYROLL Republicans Poine to Army of Negroes They Have Given Places—High Offices for Black Men. Claim Credit for Emancipation and Denounce Democrats as Unfriendly to the Colored Race. A direct appeal for the Negro vote in the coming Congressional election is made in the Republican textbook, mainly on the gorund that the party in power has shown "justice" to the Negro by appointing him to Federal offices. This discloses for the first time the extent to which Negroes have been given Government preferment. There are nearly 15,000 Negrose employed by the Government. They total salaries aggregating $8,255,761. Eleven are officials of the Diplomatic and Consular Service; 11 are officers in the United States Army; nearly 3,000 are employed in the Postal Service.

Says Republicans Freed Negroes The campaign book quotes extracts from the speeches of acceptance of Taft and Sherman to show that they "stand squarely on the equal justice plank," and in discussing the attitude of the Republican party toward the Negro the campaign managers say: "Prior to the advent of Abraham Lincoln and the Republican party about 4,000,000 Afro-Americans were held in bondage in the Southern Continued Page 4 Col' 2 Sailors and Marines Were Returning to Battleship New Hampshire—Heavy Swells From Passing Steamer With Rough Sea Causes Disaster—Many Heroic Acts Noted. New York, Oct. 3.—There was given out from the battleship New Hampshire a list of 29 men who were supposed to have perished by the swamping of a barge being towed to the vessel at anchor in the Hudson river Saturday night. Appended to this list are the names of 11 men who are still abent, but who were not recognized as having been in the swamped boat. Mother With Heroic Son. The mother of Midshipman Chevalier, who was in charge of the swamped boat and who collapsed after saving 12 men himself, has arrived in New York from New Bedford, Mass., and spent most of the day with her son. He is still shaken after the extreme mental and physical strain. R. Kart, one of the men supposed to be drowned, is credited with having saved four men. Kart was a big fellow and a good swimmer. In the water he held up two men until two life preservers came his way. He gave these to the two and then swam around and found two other men who were exhausted and sinking. These he held up until they were picked up by a boat. Still regardless of his own safety, he did not attempt to get aboard for fear of overloading it. Nobody seems to have seen him afterward. The account of his bravery was given by his shipmates. When the accident occurred the tide was running out like a mill race. It probably will be several days before any more bodies are found. Various versions of how the accident occurred were circulated. The generally accepted one, however, was that the barge, heavily loaded with sailors and marines returning from shore leave, was towed into the heavy swells of a passing steamer. Rising for a moment like a cork, the barge then plunged into the trough between two waves, one of which broke over the side and swamped it. Instantly the choppy water became dotted with struggling, shouting men, intermingled with floating packages, suitcases and personal belongings. The whistle of the little steam launch that was towing the barge rent the air with sharp calls for assistance. Few boats were in the vicinity, however, for the river was running high in whitecaps, kicked up by the strong wind. What few there were put quickly across the 200 yards that separated the distressed craft and the shore. Many of the sailors and marines were pulled aboard these boats; others held tightly to the swamped boat. Still others, unequal to the battle with the heavy tide, disappeared. "VOTES FOR WOMEN." Campaign Starts in New York for Fall Work. With the return to New York from Europe of Mrs. C. H. Mackay, the last of the suffrage leaders to take up the fall campaign work, the activities of the $100,000 suffrage war in New York state will soon be inaugurated. All the organization heads who gave out their plans want it known that money will be no object this winter in the "Votes for Women" campaign. Realizing the necessity of sufficient campaign funds to carry out the large and active program outlined the suffragists have united to raise the money by the big state suffrage fair to be held early in December, in which all the suffrage clubs of the state will take part for a week. It is expected that a substantial start will be made on the work of financing the winter campaign SPOKANE CASE JANUARY 1. Interstate Commerce Commission Will Then Put Rates Into Effect. Interstate Commerce Commissioner Prouty has returned to the national capital from the Pacific coast, where he has been taking additional testimony in the Spokane and back haul rate cases. He said that no further testimony would be taken, but that after reports are received from representatives of the commission, who are now going over the books of the railroads affected by these decisions, an opportunity will be given both the railroad companies and the shippers to present final arguments before the commission renders its opinion and enters its orders. He expects some of the rates affected by these two decisions will be put into effect about January 1. Last Boat for Alaska Seattle, Oct. 2.—The steamship Northwestern, the last vessel to make the trip to Bering sea this season, sailed for Nome, Alaska, from Seattle Sunday night.

Carlisle, Kan.—Melville Waters, 17 years old, a junior in Carlisle, was kicked in the head in a football game between the Carlisle and Rockville high school teams and died an hour later. PARDONS SUGAR WEIGHERS. President Uses Clemency Toward Men Who Testified Against Higher Ups. President Taft has pardoned Thomas Kehoe, John Coyle, Patrick Hennessey and Edward Boyle, sugar weighers, who were sentenced last January to serve one year in prison for defrauding the government. The executive clemency was exercised because the men gave information against Charles R. Heike, secretary of the American Sugar Refining company, and against Superintendent Gerbracht of the Hoboken decks of the company. SPINNERS MAY SETTLE STRIKE Asquith Is Compromising Lockout in England. Manchester, England, Oct. 4.—The lockout by the federation of master cotton spinners of the operatives in 500 mills is likely to be of short duration.

Two trials of the machine in a field of wheat and a field of oats, and it is said the grain was threshed satisfactorily of both grains. It is also stated that on this machine one man can do the work of twenty-five men, and one machine and four horses supplant several expensive machines and many horses now used. By threshing the standing grain the use of binders, headers, wheat stackers, pitchers stackers and threshing machine crews are eliminated. Pendleton Roundup Pendleton, Ore.-It was a wild, tumultuous throng that witnessed the concluding day of roundup here Saturday, and the scene was a memorable one. Despite the fact that rain fell throughout the morning, the largest crowd of the three days' celebration was in the stadium. Excursion trains from Portland, Walla Walla and other Washington and Oregon towns swelled the number of spectators to 7,000. Explosion Jars Cincinnati Cineinnati, O., Oct. 3—An explosion, the shock of which was felt throughout a large part of the residence section of this city, occurred Sunday, resulting in a fire that did damage exceeding $40,000.

Besides Great Loss of Life Property Loss Will Reach Over a Million Dollars—Great Rewards Offered for Arrest of Party Responsible for Dastardly Crime. Disaster Summarized. The following is a summary of the events connected with the explosion which destroyed the Los Angeles Times Saturday: Fourteen men missing, almost certain all dead. Night Editor Churchill Harvey-Elder dead. Assistant City Editor Charles Love lace, dying. Baumgardt Printing company's loss $300,000. Damage to surrounding buildings, $50,000. City council sets aside $25,000 to hunt down criminals. San Francisco Building Trades council offers $7,500 for culprits. Bomb found under Otis' mansion, explodes in street. Mayor Alexander offers $2500 reward for dynamiters. Times issues extra charging organized labor responsible. General Otis, owner Times, returns from Mexico with bodyguard. . Authorities assert they have clew to identity of dynamiters. Police place 700 loaded rifles in police station. Los Angeles, Oct. 2.—The explosion which occurred at 1:30 o'clock Saturday morning, resulting within two hours in the total destruction of the three-story building occupied by the Los Angeles Times, the almost certain loss of 19 lives, the injury of more than a score of others and the financial loss of $500,000, followed by the finding of a dynamite bomb at 9:15 a. m. Saturday under the residence of F. J. Zeehandelaar, secretary of the Merchants and Manufacturers' association, and of another late in the day under the window of the residence of General Harrison Gray Otis, editor in chief of the Times, have kept this city in a ferment of excitement and made this day one of sensational and tragic events. General Otis Returns. Surrounded by a bodyguard of private detectives who joined him at San Bernardino, General Otie, owner and publisher of the Los Angeles Times, stepped from a train at the Arcade station late Saturday afternoon. Otis was met at the depot by a crowd of 400 friends. During the evening 700 Springfield rifles were removed from the armory of the National Guard and stored in the lobby of the police station. The laboring men of Los Angeles have expressed horror at the explosions, but they are thoroughly angered by the allegations of certain publications that they were responsible for the outrages. More Dynamiters Routed. What the authorities believe was another attempt at dynamiting occurred late Saturday afternoon, when three men, one carrying a suitcase similar to that in which the infernal machine found at the Otis home was concealed, were found trying to force an entrance into the basement of the Times warehouse on Fernando street. A watchman fired three shots at the trio as they fled. Officers were sent to the warehouse, but the men escaped. Time Alone Can Tell. The only possible means of learning the number of dead will be by checking the missing after time enough has elapsed for those unaccounted for to report. During the excitement following the destruction of the Times establishment little attention was paid to the entire demolition of the modest three-story building of the Baumgardt Printing company adjoining, whose loss will reach $250,000. The Times' loss will approximate $600,000. The total loss caused by the explosion, according to careful estimate, and including nominal damages to surrounding buildings, will be close to The action of the city council in appropriating $25,000 to hunt down the criminals, has met with general approval in all quarters. The action of the San Francisco Building Trades council in offering a reward of $7,500 for the capture of the culprits, was generally commended. The reward was offered by the trades council following the publication of a Times extra in which organized labor was charged with the responsibility for the dynamiting. Newspapers of the Pacific coast editorially commenting on the explosion were almost unanimous in ascribing the outrage to a band of fanatics. Police Defend Labor. Chief of Police Galloway, under fire of questions said: IN NEW YORK CITY TO LARGE AUDIENCE SATURDAY. Was Marked by an Unusually Conciliatory Tone Toward Insurgent Wing of Party—Gives All Factions Share of Credit—Defines a "Progressive"—No Tariff Report Yet. New York, Oct. 2.—President Taft delivered what will probably be his only public address of the present campaign at the banquet of the National Republican league at the Hotel Astor Saturday. His speech was marked by an unusually conciliatory tone toward the insurgent wing of the party. He gave "all factions of the party" due credit for their share in helping to put through congress the legislative program which the president took occasion to outline in some detail. The record of the last 18 months, he declared, was an earnest desire of the party to fulfill its platform promises and obligations, and he promised that if the republican majority in congress should be continued at the coming elections, the work thus far left undone would be carried through to completion. Progressive Party Upon the whole republican party the president bestowed the title of "Progressive." Then he undertook to define just what is meant by "Progressive." "A party of true progress is not a party of radicalism," he declared, amid cheers. "It is not a party of ultra-conservatism," he added, and again was cheered. "A progressive republican," the president went on, "is one who recognizes existing and concrete evils and who is in favor of practical and definite steps to eradicate them." Twice President Taft mentioned Colonel Roosevelt by name in connection with the campaign against corporation abuses, and a third time by inference when he referred to the New York situation. Mr. Taft did not take an altogether sanguine view of the benefits of the direct primary, but hoped the idea could be turned to a successful betterment of politics. "But, however effective these suggested changes may prove at first," he added, "I venture to say that no great permanent good can come from them unless they are accompanied by a change in the individual voter and his awakening to the necessity for constant watchfulness and effort on his part to prevent the old evils from appearing in a new guise." Tariff Out of Politics. Mr. Taft announced that he had directed the tariff commission to make no report of the work it had accomplished up to this time until after elections. He took this step, he declared, in order to lift the commission out of politics. He referred to his suggested future revision of the tariff schedule by schedule, and declared that the Payne tariff law is coming generally to be recognized as a most creditable bill. The president declared for a sweeping extension of the civil service. In outlining the future plans of his administration, he placed stress upon the proposed federal incorporation law. He referred to the Standard Oil and the tobacco trust cases pending in the United States supreme court and declared that he did not share the fears somewhat freely expressed that a decision adverse to the corporations would greatly disturb financial conditions. He ridiculed the assertion of the democrats that $300,000,000 would be saved in national expenses each year if that party were placed in power. He asked for a more definite statement of where the saving was to be expected, and demanded to know if it is proposed by the democrats to cut off the pension list or do away with the army and navy. Besides the president, Representative Longworth of Ohio was one of the speakers of the evening. His address was mainly a defense of the Payne tariff law. Ovation for Mrs. Taft. When the president entered the room shortly before 8 o'clock it was the signal for a burst of cheering and a salvo of handclapping by the thousand diners. Between courses the president held an impromptu reception at his seat on the dais, and many friends talked with him. While the coffee was being served the band played "The Star-Spangled Banner," and as all rose Mrs. Taft, the wife of the president, accompanied by her sister, Miss Heron, entered a box. Instantly the diners were cheering lustily for Mrs. Taft. The president looked up and smiled. Then the assemblage shouted, "What's the matter with Mrs. Taft? She's all right. Who's all right? Mrs. Taft is all right." While the uproar was at its height a ladder was placed against Mrs. Taft's box, and a delegate bearing two bouquets of American Beauty roses mounted the ladder amid the applause and presented one of them to Mrs. Taft and the other to Mrs. John Hays Hammond. Taft on Vacation Again. President Taft is at Beverly for two more weeks of vacation. The president left New York accompanied by Mrs. Taft and her sister, Miss Maria Herron, Secretary and Mrs. Norton and Mr. and Mrs. John Hays Hammond. "I do not believe this affair can be charged to Los Angeles union men. It is possible that it was done by persons who came to Los Angeles for the purpose, further than that I will say nothing." The police admitted that they are in possession of information that may result in the capture of the dynamiters. They refused to divulge the source of their information. Around the temporary office the Times has established on Spring street a cordon of police was drawn at dusk. They will remain on duty all night. In the new Spring street office the Times force has assembled a score of linotype machines and other machinery necessary to the issuing of a newspaper. Every daily in Los Angeles has loaned a portion of its equipment. Managing Editor Harry Andrews announced that the paper will be issued as usual Sunday. Death List Reaches 17. Later Report. The work of 300 employees and as many street department hands, laboring unceasingly for 30 hours in the debris of the wrecked Times newspaper building, Sunday, resulted in the recovery of five of the 19 bodies buried under tons of ruins. The shovel brigade is still at work tonight burrowing after more victims, aided by a huge railway crane and a derrick, which is lifting out of the mass the curled and twisted remains of steel structural work and ruined linotypes that fell down through flaming floors upon their fire-trapped operators. Rewards Aggregate $18,500. In the hope of securing outside aid in the quest for the perpetrators of the outrage, or the participant in the supposed conspiracy, Mayor Alexander increased today the city's offer of reward to $10,000. This, together with the offers of local newspapers and labor organizations, whose leaders have expressed a determination to assist in the search for the criminals, raises the total amount of preferred reward to $18,500. MONTANA NEWS NOTES The Montana Veterinarian Medical society met at Helena recently and elected Dr. A. H. Cheney of Miles City, president; Dr. J. R. Ward of Missoula, vice president, and Dr. G. E. Thomas of Billings, secretary-treasurer. Two persons were shot Saturday near Butte, both probably fatally and both accidentally. M. B. Noble's six shooter slipped from its holster and the bullet passed through his abdomen. Emil Blanston, aged 13, while walking, was hit by a bullet from an unknown hunter. Richard Northey, a minor employed in the Speculator mine, Butte, was terribly injured recently. He drilled into a missed shot, causing an explosion which filled his body on one side with small stones and bruised him all over. He will probably recover but his injuries are very severe. A portion of the lands in the Crow Indian reservation in Montana will be sold by the government at auction at Billings October 15.

Of the total number of 732,538 deaths in 1909, in the census bureau's death dignitation area, representing a fraction over 55 per cent of the provisionally estimated population of continental United States, no less than 196,534 or 26.8 per cent, were of children under 5 years of age, and 140,057, or 19.1 per cent, were of infants under 1 year of age. While the total number, 81,720, of deaths from tuberculosis in 1909 was greater than for any preceding year and exceeded by 3,431 the number, 75,289, compiled for 1908, the death rate showed a decline from 173.9 in 1909 to 167.5 per 100,000 estimated population in 1909. External causes, other than suicide were responsible for 47,135 of the deaths reported for the census registration area for 1909.

PISO's is the name to remember when you need a remedy for COUGHS and COLDS IN THE PUBLIC EYE ROCKEFELLER AND HIS RELATIVE HAVE MADE UP JOHN D. ROCKE- feller has over a victory over him- self greater per- haps than any he has won over his bus inss rivals. The New Testa- ment tells us that a person who has aught against his brother should first be reconcilied to that brother JOHN D. ROCKE- weller has won a victory over him- self greater perhaps than any he has won over his business rivals. The New Testa- ment tells us that a person who has aught against his brother should first be reconciled to that brother before offering his gift at the altar; but many men find it difficult and some even impossible to carry out this clear injunction of the Master. Evidently John D. Rockefeller was one of those who found the task of reconciliation a hard one. For years he and his brother, Frank Rockefeller, did not speak, and an emnity, deep and bitter, was entertained by the latter against the oil king. Frank claims that John D. wronged him and he had registered a vow not to speak to him until that wrong was rectified. Just what the specific injury was is not publicly known, but it kept the brothers apart until recently, when Frank and John D. met, buried the hatchet, and exchanged the brotherly kiss. Just as it is not known what Frank's specific grievance was, so it is not known what were the terms of reconciliation. But they must have been satisfactory to Frank; and now John D.'s Sunday school in Cleveland may expect to hear a discourse in due time upon the beauty of brotherly love. Frank Rockefeller is little known to the public, and is of such paltry concern to the biographer that his name is not even mentioned in Who's Who. He was at one time interested in ore mines in the Lake Superior region and was associated with James Corrigan, a former business ally of John D. Rockefeller. But in the panic of 1893 Frank and Corrigan went under, and the power that submerged them was exerted by John D. Possibly, that may have been the grievance of which Frank complained. Anyhow, the grievance is now removed, and the brothers are as happy as school boys. This ought to be a good time to strike John D. for a loan CAPT. SCOTT, BROTHER OF LAKE COMO VICTIM HIS determined efforts to bring to justice the Lake Como murderer has kept Capt. H. H. Scott more or less in the foreground of late. It was his sister, Mrs. Mary Scott Charlton, who was slain by her husband, Porter Charlton, in PETER H. BURKE their villa on the shore of the beautiful Italian lake, the body afterward being found in a trunk in the lake. The murderer fled to America and was arrested on arrival. Then arose the question of his punishment. Italy having refused to extradite several of her subjects who had committed murder in the United States and escaped to the mother country, the Washington government declined to send Charlton back to Italy for trial. As the crime was committed abroad, Charlton could not be tried here. It is this miscarriage of justice that Capt. Scott has fought against. Capt. Scott has a very fine army record. He was one of the four army officers sent to the city of San Francisco at the time of the earthquake and he worked there so successfully in an effort to bring order out of chaos that he earned the commendation of all those who were actively interested in the work of rescue and reorganization. He has a great many letters from San Franciscoans praising his work and thanking him. An interesting story concerning the bravery of Capt. Scott has just come to light. Some years ago the newspapers were full of the story of an explosion at Lafayette Island, New York, and the killing of seven men. Lafayette Island is a storage place for navy explosives. The explosion occurred one winter day when a workman was drawing the fuse from an eight-inch shell landed at the island by the Brooklyn. The news came to the outside world through the telephone when a watchman—the one man on the island not injured by the explosion—telephoned the news to Fort Hamilton. When the news came, two officers volunteered to go to the rescue of the injured men. It was perilous work for the island was full of explosives and a fire was raging which might communicate with them at any minute. The volunteers were Capt. Scott and Maj. Webb, now on the retired list. These two manned a steam launch and broke their way through the ice from Fort Hamilton to Lafayette Island which was a small piece of land almost entirely covered by fortifications. The interior of the fort was a mass of flames and in the midst of the fire lay eight mangled bodies. One man's head had blown to the roof and lodged there. But the other men were alive, though fearfully mangled and helpless. Capt. Scott and Maj. Webb worked with feverish haste to drag the torn bodies of the men to their launch while the old watchman played a hose on the burning magazine. But the fire had not eaten its way to the magazine when the last of the bodies was piled into the launch and the two brave officers and the old watchman followed and put out through the ice toward Fort Hamilton. Before they reached that destination they saw Lafayette Island blown up by the explosion of the magazine. The brave conduct of the two officers never became known. Nor was their bravery rewarded in great measure by the result of their work of rescue. Only one of the men they dragged from the flames on Lafayette Island survived. PHILANTHROPIC DONOR OF THE NOBEL PRIZE FUND WHEN Alfred Bernard Nobel died in San Remo, Italy, some years ago, he left a substantial fund which instigates our great scientists, authors and statesmen to their mightiest endeavors a great deal more than the mere plaudits of A. H. world. Alfred Bernard Nobel was an oil king second only to the present-day magnate, John D. Rockefeller, and in being an oil king second only to the great John D. he accumulated an immense fortune as oil kings generally have a habit of doing. Upon his death some $9,000,000 was left behind, of which small legacies were given to his already wealthy relatives and the interest on the remainder which accumulated during a year was then divided into five equal parts and is annually awarded as prizes to the persons who shall have made (1) the most important discovery or invention in the domain of physics, (2) in chemistry, (3) in physiology or medicine, (4) who shall have produced in the field of literature the most distinguished work of an idealistic tendency, and (5) who shall have most or best promoted the fraternity of nations, the abolishment or diminution of standing armies and the formation and increase of peace congresses. The awards for these prizes are controlled entirely by Swedish courts. The winners of (1) and (2) are selected by the Royal Academy of Science in Stockholm; (3) by the Caroline Medical Chirurgical institute in Stockholm; (4) by the Swedish Academy in Stockholm, and (5) by the Norwegian storthing (parliament). The Nobel prize fund is a fine philanthropy, bringing out the very best in the man who is making an effort for the prize and gives the people the benefits of his masterpiece in science, art or literature. MISS BULA EDMONDSON, TYPE OF INDIAN BEAUTY WHEN one thinks of Indian beauty, especially after a visit to a wild west show, his sense of the aesthetic is horribly shocked — great guff men, broadnosed, ugly-featured and homely appearing women, possessors of WHEN one thinks of Indian beauty, especially after a visit to a wild west show, his sense of the aesthetic is horribly shocked — great guff men, broad-nosed, ugly-featured and homely appearing women, possessors of every feature which does not tend to beautify a human countenance. But if one enters into a chance conversation with an Oklahoma and mentions Indian ugliness he will soon be told that in Oklahoma they have Indian beauty, and if need be the westerner will cite well-known examples. One of the best-known types of Indian beauty is Miss Bula Benton Edmondson, principal of the public schools at Tablequah, Okla. Miss Edmondson is a rare combination of classic beauty, grace and surpassing accomplishments. Her picture adorned the walls of the Oregon building at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition and for months it was the center of marked attention from thousands of visitors who found in the classic features a study which aroused the keenest interest. Talented, beautiful, holding the highest position which the citizens of her community can give her Oklahoma points with pride to her protege whose lineage is linked with the Cherokees, as the highest type of Indian civilization and beauty in the world.

There is a certain dash to it that's due partly to the plain little banding of a contrasting shade. There were once two retail grocers—bitter competitors—who lay awake nights figuring out ways to best each other. If Jones sold Binks beats at regular prices Smith would cut. One day Smith put a card in his window, "Guaranteed Eggs—30c a dozen." Jones saw him and dropped to 25c a dozen. Smith cut to 20c. Jones slid to 18c—and the neighborhood waked up and reached for its pocket-book. Smith hung a ham on the safety valve, and reduced his price to 10c a dozen—Jones matched him with a duplicate sign. By this time the whole town was on a ham and egg diet, and each dealer had a steady line of callers. After two days of this Smith wore a worried look—he was $150 out. Jones looked cheerful and mysterious. Three days—Smith losing weight—out $250; Jones holding back a laugh with both hands. Four days—Smith on verge of nervous prostration; sends his nephew to find why Jones is cheerful. Boy tries to buy eggs—and is told he has been sold out for four days, but that "Smith across the way—will sell him all he wants at 10c a dozen." This rang down the curtain on the price surgery.—Butterick Trio. Perhaps the golden rule means a cubic deal as well as a square one. Doing is the only path to becoming U.M.C.

"The Republican party determined that the Confederacy should be destroyed; that the Union should be preserved; and true to its principles and in keeping with his own declarations, the Great Emancipator struck the shackles from the limbs of the bondmen. Following the freedmen of the slaves came their enlistment in the army and navy, and by this act the names of 200,000 Afro-Americans were added to the honor roll. The leaders of the Republican party, feeling that their work was far from completed, framed and passed the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments and the States ratified their action, thus" making slavery impossible and confirming the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people.
