Legality OF the Iseccivership to He
Tested I'm Court.

INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. 1.-THE legality
OF the suppression Of tho Roby prize
fights has been disputed by the Colum-
bian Athletic club. and the question
will be settled in the supreme court.
The matter has been brought up for the
consideration OF the bench OF last re-
sort in the way OF an application on the
part of the club TO set aside the receiv-
ership granted by Judge Gillette OF the
Lakc circuit court.
In the order in which it is fled on the
docket the case will not come up for ac-
tion before a year and a half, but IL IL
more than probable that the court will
set aside the regular rule and grant a
hearing directly after convening in Oc-

OF woe which looks plausible to the
farmers, who give him grain varying
In amount from a half a bushel TO
two and three bushels. He places the
grain In his wagon, covering it with
hay to conceal 1t from view, and when
ne gets a load accumulated, drives to
the nearest market, disposes Of the
grain and pockets the proceeds. The
old fellow Is the owner OF good farm

said to have been working this and
similar schemes for some time past.

MulYane Record.

We were afraid the late freeze had
damaged the fruit crop, but a close
examination proved TO the contrary,
and il nothing happens from now on,
IN enormous crop is assured.
G. W. Blair. who recently traded
for John A. W. Dyer's farm near this
city, Will plant $50 apple trees on it
this spring. He will soon have the
entire los acres planted with apples
and peaches.
Most of the corn planting will be
done this week. Farmers say the
trst planting is coming up nicely.
The wheat is growing rapidly and
oats never looked better at this time
of year. The fruit prospect is all
that the most enthusiastic fruit grow
er could ask. Prosperity has camped
in this valley this season.
The last years wheat crop aver
aged 55.5 lbs. per bushel in North Da-
kOta, to 59.5. lbs. in Colorado. The
Kansas crop averaged SO lbs. Kansas
led all Others in the quantity prOduc-
ed, her output being 69,65O, ,4S3 BUSH
els. Mississippi raised the smallest
crop, only 1882 bushels. California,
with all her bOasted productions and
wheat farms, raised only 3S.504, 1888
bushels. just little more than half
as much as Kansas, and she was the
closest competition Kansas had.
Talk about drOuth, grasshopsers and
cyclones and come to Kansas and get
a farm where you can raise a crop.

Now as the statement that there
are eleven banks in my county lSIm-
ner) that had not been examined be-
tween such and such periods, | will
take as correct, but not with the infer.
ence attached that | had not done my
duty. Every bank in Sumner county
subject to the Jurisdiction Of the bank
commissioner had been examined by
the deputy commissioner, and they
are doing business today by reason Of
it. One would infer that it was the
duty of the commissioner or his dep
uty to examine bank every time he
came near it; if so, banks should be
taxed to death. Our policy, as a rule.
was not to re-eXamine a bank after it
had been once examined and found
qualified to transact business until
we had examined all Others, unless
some special reason was known to de-
termine otherwise; any other course
would be manifeStly unjust to the
banks that had raid additional fees.
AS to the remainder of the interview
it will be readily seen by the fOrego-
ing statement that the bank commits
SlOner chose to take my expense ac-
count for the last two months Of Of
flee. and make it the rule for the
whole term when there were but few
banks to examine not yet having been
examined, and they remote. scattered
and somewhat difficult of access, and

upon law, order and the constitution,
and too when | expected weekly that
each one would be the last of my Off

accomplished as much before, and my
trips home were more frequent.
Saying this much, submit the case.

truth, | remain very truly yours.
