The president of the lit tie republic is elected every four years. He receives a salary of $500 a year, but when at Washington on business for the republic he gets four dollars a day extra. He is called chief, but none but Cherokee of more than 35 years IS eligible for the chieftainship. When he is absent his duties are performed by an assistant chief, whose salary is S250 year. The chief has a cabinet of three secretaries and the congress 'olHPI ises C"o ueleSdIes 1lon every 190 members of the tribe.

The only people who fully appreci- ate the comforts of a good bath are those who summer in Phoenix. It is quite necessary for happiness to bathe often and to have everything nice con- nected with it. Towels are the prin- cipal things, as a good rubbing with a fine Turkish bath towel revives one as much as the bath. The Alkire com pany has just received a very large line of bath towels which are the best that can be obtained and they are selling far below the regular value. Prepare yourself for the summer while they are selling so cheap.

Robert Laughlin, who on Saturday
morning reported that his house
had been burned by murderers
who attempted his life, and whose
wife and niece were burned in the
building, last night confessed he
had committed the crime. The
general theory is he had first as
saulted his niece then KILLED her
and his wife to hide the crime.
But he denies this and says he
could not tell what put it in his
mind to brain them with poker
while they were asleep. To prevent
lynching it was arranged to take
Laughlin to Jail at Maysville.

BIBLE RAISES A ROW

In the Chicago Trade and Labor Assembly.
CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-After spend
ing two hours in debate and caus-
ing considerable ill-feeling, the
trade and labor assembly laid the
question OF the Bible in the public
schools on the table and decided to
confine its energies to securing free
text books for public school child.
rem. The assembly was about to
adjourn when w. G. Pomeroy
brought up the question OF the
Bible. The discussion was tame
enough until he introduced resoiu-
tions calling on the city council to
pass an ordinance which would pro-
vide Bibles for all reform organlza-
tions.
James ]. Linehan called the in
PRODUCTION of the resolution a
piece Of trickery.
j. j. Ryan said a delegate who
would couple the Bible question
with the free text proposition as
Pomeroy had done, had no right TO
be heard.
Matters grew worse and at times
there were three or four delegates
on the floor at once, each claiming
recognition. The Bible mustered
many friends, although the propo-
sition to introduce 1t into the
schools did not bring out many
supporters.
Delegate Ryan said II the dele
gates would read the Bible oftener
they would be better men.
Delegate Linehan said there was
not a delegate In the hall who could
quote two passages of scripture.
Delegate Preiss was not opposed
to teaching children things that
are good, saying they would learn
! the bad themselves.
Delegate Nelson wanted the mat
ter referred to a special com
mittee and still another thought
1t could be handled by the
committee on public Untrue
ton. More motions fell thick
and fast from all parts Of the
hall until someone moved that the
whole question be laid on the table
Only three dissenting votes were
heard. The committee previously
appointed to confer with the board
OF education was not ready to re.
port, but a member, Victor VIII
liams, of the Typographical union,
said he had talked with members
of the board and they appeared to
think it would not be wise to spend
100000 for school books until
buildings we're furnished to edu-
cate the 10000 children OF the city
in, who cannot now find room In
| tho schools.

The Need Of the Hour.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE
Phillips bill for the appointment
of non-partisan commission
to collect information and
consider and recommend leg
islation to meet problems present.
ed by. labor, agriculture and CAPT.
tai, has been reported to the house.
Accompanying the bill is long
report which says among other
things, that the commission
is designed also to bene-
fit the business men. The dis
turbed condition OF affairs has en-
tailed great loss on the business
community. The loss OF $34, 000,-
600 in six years to employers Of
labor as shown in tables presented
by the report is, it says, but a frac-
ton OF that sustained by trans
porters, merchants, and others en-
gagged in business pursuits. Bust
ness men have and will continue
to suffer great depressions in
values and increasing losses
unless better adjustment Is
made. Business and business in
terests require a just and more
satisfactory settlement Of differ
ences with those with whom they
deal and upon whose labor and
products successful business must
depend. The better labor is pro-
tected in all its rights, the better
will be the security for earnings.
