BLAND DEAD.
Great Democratic Leader Peacefully
Passes away.

LEBANON, Mo, June 17.-Con-
gresham Richard Parks Bland died
at his home, near Lebanon, peaceful
ly and without apparent suffering
Mr.. Bland returned home when
congress adjourned in March and
soon suffered a relapse from an at
tack of la grippe. For more than
two months he had been confined to
his home, and his health has grad
ually declined. He thought he would
not survive the attack from the first,
and showed his thorough knowl
edge of his condition. On the Sd of
this month Mr.. Bland suddenly
grew worse, and his sons, who were
in school, were summoned home, and
for the first time the public was in
formed of his critical condition.
From time to time since then the
patient showed signs of improve
ment, but he continued to grow
weaker, Sunday and Monday he
presented an improved condition,
and Monday afternoon strong hopes
for his recovery were entertained.
About ten o'clock Tuesday night,
he fell asleep and continued in that
condition until death.

A STRONGER SENTIMENT
In Favor of Extending inc Ct,y
 Limits.

The annexation sentiment continues grown much since last Monday night, for it was aimosa unanimous then. But it is hardening and people con tinue to talk about it. The trouble heretofore in all matters Of municipal improvement the sentiment however favorable it might be- would go 10 sleep for want of discussion before the time for action. There seems to be none of the expected opposition in the territories proposed to be taken in. The wisdom and fairness in the mo- ton submitted by Major Evans in the Monday night meeting to again place tho matter before the residents Of the addition has met with appreciation in those quarters. Even the objection expected from the south half of the Murphy addition is not f0rcible and it is thought that it may be gotten over aitoge Jher.
 Yesterday J. D. Lorraine. the owner of a saloon and real estate there, said that he was ready for annexation and would sign a petition to be taken in. Others who had been holding cut pre- pairing to resist the efforts being made to annex them. have not publicly ex- pressed their views since the meeting. IL has been made clear now that the object of the etension is not wholly to benefit property in the present limits, but all the property in Greater Phoe- nix, no part of which can be benefited without to some extent benefiting all.

EARLY AMERICAN LITERATURE.
By Lorenzo Sears. l.. H. D. of Brown
 University.


 Amidst the grimness of both prose land verse there is enough Of the anus ing element to keep the subject from dullness, and the personality of the authors will crop cut Cften enough to prevent their disappearance in a tract ate on colonial letters. The author ex- poets to present the high lights" and prominent points rather than photo graphic detail. For this the curious reader will be referred 10 the writings themselves. which can be found in every well equipped public library. It is hoped that enough will be furnished readers to enable them to take up the study of our earlier and later writers with a good understanding of their relative achievements and Oi their place in the domain of literature.
 The papers on Early American Lit 6rature will treat of representative writers Of the colonial period from 1907 tci 1776. Usually the principal writer e group will be taken. as in dicating the prevailing thought and style of his age, with such supple mental discourse about his contempO rar3es as the limits of the article will permit. Fer example: John Smith and his narratives will illustrate the Virginia period Of settlement, and the subjects that interested his comp3n- ion writers, Strachey, Percy, Whita- ker, Sandys and Harp. William Brad ford's History of Plymouth Colony" is the leading document Of the first quarter century in New England, Of which combinations were written by Morton, WinslCw, Winthrop and John son. Succeeding periods will be rep resented by Roger Williams, Cotton Mather, Benjamin Franklin and eth CTS. Certain broad classes of Htera- ture will be incidentally exemplified, as the oratory Of the pre-revolution age and the poetcy which the colonial muse Wrestled to produce.

A RELATED CONTEST
for the Office of Treasurer of
 Apache County.

United States Attorney Robert F. Morrison arrived in tcrwn yesterday
 morning on his way home from Tue
 son in the matter of violations Of va rious federal statutes. H: I9ft last night for St. Johns, Apache county, to take part in a fight for an cff1ce. It is a controversy preceded by peculiar cir cumstances, the most peculiar Of which was board of supervisors which thought it was holding an cleo ticn contest, when it was Cnly hirad to canvass the votes.
 At the election last fall Hill w3s a candidate on the democratic ticket for the office of county treasurer The re- publican candidate was Schuster, who happened to be then treasurer Tle returns showed that there had been a tie vote.
 The first b1under was made by the election board of NutriOsa precinct Instead Of sending a regular return to the board of supervisors in Cne en- ve!cpe and the ballots sealed in an ether, Q special return accompanied by the ballots The special return callad the attention Of the supervisors to two ballots which had not been counted for the reason that the election board was not composed Of mind readers and nO- body else could tell what the voters meant to do.
 The supervisors, two democrats and one republican, having thus been given access to the ballots with which they had no business. decided to count one of them for Hill, just 10 throw off the tie. It would have been 3s easy to flip nickel, but the count ing of the ballots seemed more official, though it really wasn't
 "A certificate of election was issued to Hill, but Schuster refused to givs up the office, basing his refusal on the ground that there had been no elec- tiOn. He wasn't going to violate his official cath of two years before, that he would hold Cn to his officei untI his successor was elected and qualified.
 This contest under the ausp;c7s Of tEs supervisors left no room fir a regular contest in court and Hill has been figuring since how he could bre ak into the treasury Finally, he began for possession icf the Cffice i alleging that Schuster was usurping It. ] That is the case now to be tried The whole thing seems to hirga on the | action of the board Of supervisors. l. | is too late now fer a contest and for | the court to take into consideration | either the disputed CT rejected bal l cts.
