KANSAS PACIFIC PEOPLE oBJECT.
VIII Block the Work of ReOrGan-
1zatiOn If Possible.

NEW YORK Nov. 1.-The Herald tomorrow
will say: Opposition to the Union Pacific plan
of reorganization developed yesterday from a
new source. The Kansas Pacific bOndhoders
object to the treatment of their securities
under the modified arrangement, and they
propose to block the reorganization il pos
sible. Those bonds received under the orig
inal plan so per cent in first per cent bonds
and 80 per cent in preferred stock, but these
terms were modified 30 as to issue 5000, 900
bonds and, according to the amendment,
Kansas City consols receive 90 4 per cent
bonds at 10 per cent preferred stock. The
opposition to the plan, which is largely in
terested in Kansas Pacific consols, claims
that the agreement on which deposits Of
their consols under the plan were obtained
has been broken. 1t is said that steps will
be taken in the federal courts to test the
matter If the plan proceeds on its present
lines.
the government for the Union Pacific calls
as repositories. II is reported that the Ma
tional City and Chase National banks will
be two of the banks selected. because they
have large holdings of government bonds
which have to be deposited at Washington.
Such deposits of bonds have to be made
amounting to the government funds held by
the banks 1t is stated that the majority of
the New York banks have disposed Of the
bulk of the new government bonds by rea-
son of the high premium they command, and
hence if they take any considerable amount
of the government deposits they will have
to borrow government bonds to cover the
amount of the funds, and few Of them care
to do this.

OPENS WITH 4 SURPRISE.
w. c. t. L. Delegation ATTENDS the
Palm Garden show.

The Palm Garden opened with a full va
riety programme last night and a large
audience. In fact there were two more
spectators present than the management ex-
pected to see. Just as the performance he
gan, two ladies stepped up purchased tick
cts walked in and took seats. Everybody
looked Their appearance caused a buzz OF
excitement and half Of those present told the
other half:
There's Mrs Root"
The proprietor surveyed the w. c. T. u.
delegation, but said nothing to them, and the
play, "McGuiness' Reception" went on with
all the fire that ten women young and
otherwise, and several men could put in IT..
This was followed by a burlesque, "A Trip
to Klondike." 1t was a joyous jaunt for the
audience which seemed to enjoy every hit
of the stage journey; Mrs Root aud her
companion didn't think there was much fun
in it. But they remained until the curtain
fell.
After the performance. reporter for the
G o b saw the two ladies and asked them
how they happened to go to the show.
I'VE wanted TO what kind of a show
they are giving What kind is it? It's aw-
full. Worst than anything I've ever seen.
And everything that appealed to the pas
sions was apDlauded while the decent parts
were Kissed"
yes" put in the other lady and there
were so many boys present. There must have
been between fifty and hundred boys there
along about 10 and 20 years old.
There were some of the city officials
there. too" said Mrs. Root. 'at least I took
some OF them to be. suppose they went
to see what kind of show it was"
There was no liquor sold" the reporter
'No, but I didn't know but perhaps that
was because we were there.
What are you going to do about it, Mrs.
Root was asked.

ment enough.

street railway companies from the jul
risdiction and control of the states that
create them, but it carries out of their
control every other corporation for
whatever purpose formed that can pro-
cure some of it's shares to be owned
by non-residents.
And to this encroa chment there is not
only tacit assent, but the one politi-
cal party that has always stood for the
integrity of the states pursues a state
policy that co-operates with the in
fringing movement of the federal gov
eminent. We have seen for some years,
more accentuated this year, the Demo-
cratic party, contesting for the control
Of states, making national questions
the issue and either ignoring state
questions or RELOCATING them to second
place. We see today, in the city of
New York, a movement Of Democrats,
with Mr.. George at their head, making
a national issue the test in a municipal
election; in fact making the excuse for
their organization the ignoring
of national issues by the reg
ular Democracy? What is this but
a surrender by Democrats of their
cherished doctrine of state rights and
state autonomy? To what is it due?
Are we becoming, what Republicans
claimed after the war, "a nation with
a big NJ" Are we drifting to condi-
ton where the states will be mere
provinces?

was adopted, and the feeling of secur-
ity with which all parties now look
forward to an honest count of the Sc
cret ballots. In former years, is con-
troll oscillated from one party to the
other in the state, in which the votes
of New York and Brooklyn were con-
trolling factors, the defeated party i'm
mediately set up the cry of cheating
in the count. Prior to the voting there
were charges of false registration, of
preparations for ''repeating;" and on
election day the purchase Of voters was
open and shameless. Twice a presi-
electorate, and once the laundering
candor of a preacher defeated the
preparations of the bosses to dispose
of another. Between the purchase of
publican government seemed to be
breaking down in the initial act of it's
expression.
Now we have all efforts made to-
wards convincing the voters, winning
their support by appeals to their reason.
Great mass meetings have taken the
place of the work of the ward heelers.
The boss still dominates the nominal
ing machinery, but the voter smashes
it if he will. No longer is the voter
paid his price and marched to the polls
under the watchful eye of a henchman,
with his ballot displayed to give assur-
ance that he las fulfilled his agree
ment and earned his money. The reg
istration is honest, and the booth gives
to the voter security and also makes
profitless his purchase. This is much,
but the confidence with which all par
ties now rely upon the honesty and
practical accuracy of the count of the
this when it says: with what fear
and misgivings the friends of good
government in this city would look for
ward to the contest at the polls, if
Plat and Croker had control of the
election machinery and of the count.
But Plat and Croker will not
control the count. The votes for Low
will be counted as cast. Tracy votes
will not be counted for Van Wyck.
There will be an honest count and a
truthful return"
AS we recall the preceding condition
when such men did control both the
election and the count and compare it
with the feeling expressed by the
Times, one can see how far the efforts
for good government have prevailed
over the element of disorder, and, see
ing this, can take fresh courage to car
ry on the reforms yet demanded. With
this record to encourage, who can
doubt that the days of the boss are
soon to be numbered with the bad
things that are past?

Why the fight on mayor in New York
should shake the whole country from center
to circumference is a mystery to most peo-
ple.-Granite Falls Tribune.
Then most people" have not sensed its
significance 1t is not strife between par
ties or the bosses of parties; it involves the
question OF the capability OF our people for
seif-government. Our big cities present the
problems that will confront the whole coun-
try when population becomes dense, and if
good government cannot now be had in them
it cannot be had for the whole country then.
And it is matter of encouragement that
this administration is arraying itself on the
side of all that 1t bad in local government.

ONE LONG STEP IN ADVANCE.

Whatever may be the defects in mu-
nicipal government, against which a
large contingent of the voters of New
York are now in opposition, some dis
tinct progress has been scored by the
reformers in recent years. A civil
service that secures qualified men to
transact the minor affairs of the city
has been established and maintained
against the strenuous hostility of those
who made profit by the spoils system,
and the efforts since made to take the
starch out of it," as Gov. Black phras-
ed the movement to destroy it, have
been futile But the greatest improve
ment, the longest advance step to-
wards the possibility OF good govern
ment, was the adoption of the Aus
tralian ballot, a movement for
a time resisted by men like
Platt on the one side and Hill on
the other, men differing only in the
party badge they wore, and not at all
in their concepts Of government.
To measure the length of this step
and to sense its significance. one has
but to compare elections in that city

EDITOR MoFFET,s TRIALS.
Change OF Venue VIII Probably BE
Asked.

BISMARCK, N. d, Nov. 1.-The reg

Venes IN this city on Nov. % and prom
lSeS 10 be the most interesting ever
held in BurleiSh county. The libel suits
against Editor Moffet, of the Settler
are among the first cases on the calen-
OAR ana they Will undoubtedly attract
great interest all over the Northwest.
1t is said that Judge Winchester has
decided to call in another judge to try
the cases. If he should not do so.
Moffet will probably request that a
judge from one of the other districts
in the state be asked to try the cases.
which request might be granted under
the law which states that in criminal
cases the district judge may call in
another judge when the defendant
makes an affidavit alleging prejudice,
ana the supreme court in the famous
sent murder case held that the word
may should be construed to mean
must in this section of the statutes
AFTER MOtfet succeeds in securing an

change OF venue to some other county.
he VIII ask this on the ground that
the oflclals whose duty it is to select

1t would be very hard to secure q illry
in BurleiSh county, as nearly every
/ man in the county has formed and ex-
pressed an opinion in the matter. Just
where the cases will be taken for trial
is impossible to say. 1t is stated on
good authority that Moffet will have
| two Of the leading lawyers of the state
engaged in his defense and the prose-
cution will also have the best legal
talent Obtainable.

siderable interest is the Dixon-B arthol-

FIFTY SHOTS FIRED.
4 Serious Labor Riot In n PennsyI-
Vania Town,

SCOTTDALE, Pa, Nov. IA riot oc-
CURED here tonight in which Henry Gillespie
John Jordan and Manager Skmp, of the
Scottdale Iron and Steel company, were bad
ly injured. Yesterday, union man, Frank
Keltz was beaten into insensibiIity by non
union iron workers and Keltz and his fellow
workmen vowed vengeance. Manager Skimp,
fearing trouble when his men quit work
formed thirty or forty of them in line and
marched up Pittsburg street. At Broadway
a large crowd had gathered and four of
the marchers with drawn revolvers, stepped to
the front and ordered the crowd back. Just
then some one threw a stone into the crowd
of nOn-unionists This was responded to
by a shot. followed by a regular fusilade
fully fifty shots being fired, nearly all COM
ing from the nOn-union men. Manager Skimp
was shot in the left foot and was struck
by a stone or brick on the left side of the
head. and is seriously though not danger
ously wounded. Henry Gillespie was shot
through the right arm, the ball passing
through an artery, and he almost bled 20
death before the wound could be dressed.
John Jordan had three fingers shot off. Sew
eral others were slightly injured by being
struck with stones. From the numbers Of
shots fired it is almost miraculous that no
one was killed outright Gillespie claims that
when the shooting commenced he started for
a place of safety He claims that he was
fired at by Manager Skimp. Thomas Gillespie,
a brother of Henry, stated that he saw Man
ager Skimp fire three shots in the direc-
ton of Henry. Gillespie will swear out a
warrant for the arrest Of Manager Skimp for
felonious shooting. Four non-union men
arrested.
