Almost Immediately Dickson seems to
nave got beyond his depth and In need
OF assistance from Messrs. Sanborn &
Sanborn. The frequent conferences and
the advice given by Mr.. Dickson (see his
BILL passem) aided by neglect of duty by
the assignee, soon brought the estate TO
such pass that large sums of money
and much time had to be expended solely
for the purpose of ascertaining the true
condition Of affairs and preventing the
summary removal of the assignee. Mr..
Dickson appears from his bill to have
given very constant attention to the mat
ter OF the estate. and as he has remained
to presume the assignee followed the ad
vice given in one sense freely, but at ex-
orbitant prices by Mr.. Dickson. The re-
suit has been disastrous to the estate
which should not be compelled to suffer
further depletion at the hands of those
who are responsible for the losses already
Of Mr.. Dickson's bill. Almost all of them
are eXorbitant. The items ARE so numer-

Then follows specifications Of certain
items, some of which are objected to on
the ground that they are for work that
should have been performed by the as
signee, and others on the ground that the
services were made necessary only by
reason of the alleged wrongful conduct of
the assignee and his attorney
The objections conclude with the state

incompetence and indifference to the well

the court disclosed such neglect of duty
and ignorance of what had been done N

$500 that has been paid. This is also OBJ

letter was sent.
Speaking of the Cape Nome country, he
says bushels of money are being made

people at Cape Nome. Anvil City is the
name of the town. Next season there
will be 10000 or $4,000 people there. There
are three Laplanders there who have
taken out more than 100000 the last
three months. They ought not to have
been allowed to hold their claims at all,
because they were not citizens at the
time they took them. But the money will
not do them much good as they are
drunk all the time. They spend 1000 or
more a day.

DIES MONIES, To-, Nov. 14-Hon. A. B.
Cummins, Iowa member of the Republic
an national committee, in an interview
today regarding an effort to change the
basis of representation in the national
convention, said he favored change Of
representation according to votes cast for
Republican presidential candidates, and
not according to representation in con-
gress, as at present. He realized that
this would work a hardship to Repub-
licans Of the South, who need encour-
agement, but he sees no reason why they
should be able to control more strength
In the convention than their ratio of
votes would ordinarily allow He says,
however, that it will be difficult if not
impossible to effect the change at this
time. Gov. Shaw expressed similar opin-
ions Many leading Republicans seen to-
day expressed their choice of Chicago for
the next convention.
