The 1aior Let Out.

Ell Reno, Okla, Aug. 27.-As
the result of a long continued fight
A. E. Woodson, major of the
Ninth cavalry (cOlored) and act
ing Indian agent Of the Cheyenne
and Arapahoe Indians at Darling
ton, resigned yesterday. Major
Woodson has held the agency for
nearly six years, which has been
one long campaign against sensa-
tions, scandals and charges. Some
late developments of highly SEN
sational character, such as reten-
ton of lease moneys, ETC., led to a
request for Maj. Woodson's resig-
nation, which was on the table
when he returned from Colorado
last week.

King, retired, will succeed as

Darien. Ca. August 27.-After
night of intense anxiety, with
the militia on every street, and all
white citizens under arms at their
homes and at the Jail, the day be-
gan with no particular incident.
The court house had been turned
into barracks for the soldiers,
and those who were not constantly
on duty were allowed to rest there.
Many of them tonight are COM
pleteiy exhausted, having been on
duty constantly for three days and
two nights.
Col. Lawton was here at an early
hour, keeping himself informed by
courier, and sending frequent mes
sages to Gov. Gambler, in Atlanta.
AT noon a courier from the swamp,
Is miles out, arrived and reported
that the negroes had congregated
in and around the house of the
Delagells, six miles from the swamp,
and that they would not surrender
or permit the Delagells to be taken.
The sheriff, with a posse of 100
men, went 60 the Delagells' house,
but retired without making an at
tack. The sheriff gave out the in
formation that he would need more
men to enforce a demand for the
much wanted negroes, and he set
about enlarging his posse.
Col Lawton, after communicate
ing with Gov. Gambler, ordered the
Liberty Independent Troop of Light
Cavalry here, and they left Jones
Station and came through the coun-
try over the wagon road. distance
of 25 miles. arriving at 4 O'Clock
this afternoon.
REGIMENT ORDERED OUT.
Col. LawtOn also ordered the
First regiment of the National
Guard at Savannah to proceed at
once to Darien They reached here
this afternoon at 6 o'clock. Col.
Lawton has ordered tents and all
camp equipments for the men in
case they are needed.
1t has been reported here that
1000 negroes are in the vicinity of
the Delagells' house, having come
from all parts of Liberty and Nc
IntOsh counties. ReconnoiterinS
was done by couriers, but as
the negroes are scattered for sew
eral miles through the swamp, their
number was not definitely ascer

Col. Lawton late this afternoon
ordered the Fourth Regiment,
National Guard of Georgia. with
companies at Brunswick, Valdosta,
Way Cross and other towns in this
section of the state, to be prepared
to move at a moments notice. The
militiamen at Brunswick and Way
Cross are in their armories await
ing orders to proceed to Darien.
The white people have been
aroused for miles around, and they
came in during the day in large
numbers. Every available white
man in Mcintosh county was depu-
tized by Sheriff Blount, but still
he could not muster a sufficiently
large posse. The negroes number
five to each white man, and out
side assistance was considered nee

Probably the only case on record
in which the voters who didn't vote
won the election was furnished by
the recent submission of the ques-
tion of prohibition to vote of the
people Of Canada Although the
vote cast showed majority of 49,
916 IN favor of prohibition, there be-
ing a large majority in every prov
ince but one, the government has de-
cided that as the vote for the meas
ure represented less than % per
cent of the voters of the dominion,
the people do not want prohibition
and shall not have it. Thus the
election is decided in favor of the
69O,79 voters who staid at home
and didn't vote at all. This principle
would strike most people as decided
" peculiar, especially were it APP
piled in an ordinary election; and
if good in one case, why not in an
other?

Post No Bills.

AT the request of one OF our worthy
bailitfs the TIMES takes pleasure in assist
ing in jostling the memory OF the munich
pality by publishing Article 2l OF the cor
poration bylaws. This article says:
1t shall be unlawful for any person with
in the corporation to post any show bill,
advertisement or paper or paint, or fasten
any sign or notice on any telegraph. tele-
phone, electric light post or pole, or on
any building, fence, post, tree or any other
natural or artificial object, or. deface by
marking with paint or other material, or in
any other way injure any building, fence,

the corporation, without permission frs,
obtained Of the proprietors thereof and Of
the bailiffs, and no person shall wilfully OF
carelessly destroy or injure any shade tree
growing or standing on any street within

The Meeting Next Monday.

The warrant for the special corporation
meeting next Monday evening at 7.3O
o'clock has four articles. One is regard
ing the laying of six-inch water pipe from
Granger street to the south end of w. A.
Halls paint shop. The second is regard
ing the payment of $500 to the Bellows
Falls band as compensation for open air
concerts. This has been voted once, but
there is some question as to the legality of
the vote. Another article is ito see if
the corporation will vote to instruct the
water commissioners to lay an eight-inch
pipe from the main pire in the Square
easterly between Arms Block and Browns
Block, along the westerly side of the canal
to Bridge street, easterly along Bridge
street to point near the Island House
thence northerly along Island street to
point near the north end of the Yer
mont Farm Machine company building,
the same to be laid in lieu of that voted at
the special meeting of june 6, 1899, and
appropriate means therefor
At the June meeting it was voted to lay
the pipe from Rockingham street. along
Canal street, and across the canal bridge.
We understand that good authority states
that it is insdvissble to suspend 8 pipe
under the bridge owing to the vibration.

The Bankruptcy Law.

Some interesting facts concerning the
new federal bankruptcy law are shown by
the books Of the deputy United States dis
trict clerk in Brattleboro. As is well
known, the new law has been subjected to
considerable criticism, and it is the gener-
al opinion in Vermont that the law is not a
success Much of the criticism made has
been well grounded, but nevertheless the
law has many redeeming features, and the
defects which the trial of the law has
brought out should be remedied by amend
ing the law rather than repeating it. The
law went into effect in July, 1898. Since
then there have been over $50 petitions in
bankruptcy in Vermont, or an average of
IS in each county. Nearly all of these pc
titions have been fled during the past IL
months, as several weeks elapsed after the
law went into effect before many people
took advantage of it. The liabilities in
most instances do not amount to more than
$500, and usually there are very small
assets. There are few petitions, how
ever, with large liabilities, which brings
the average of liabilities up to about $500.
Windsor, Franklin and Caledonia coun-
ties furnish more bankrupts than any of the
other counties. In Franklin county, for
instance, there have been from IS to 100
petitions, and in Windsor county there
have been about 35, the average number of
petitions in the latter county under the old
insolvency law being about two ID year.
The majority OF the petitions in these coun-
ties are filed by Central Vermont railroad
employees, and the reason for this is said to
be that the company has given notice to its
men that ii will discharge any of them whose
wages are trusteed. Rather than be dis
charged the men who are In debt go through
bankruptcy, relieve themselves of their old
debts, and start anew. Another reason
why there are so many more petitions in
bankruptcy than there were in insolvency,
is that the cost is only about one-fourth as
great. Still another reason is that ordi-
narily no hearing is required in order to be
adiudged q bankrupt.
One of the great benefits of the law is
that it greatly curtails credit. 1t is posi-
BILE for person to run up large bills at va
rious stores with the intention of going
through bankruptcy to relieve himself Of
the obligation of paying them. For this
