cRAZED BY RELIGION.
o. crisscy. of Fayette, is Taken to the
Asylum

Fayette, Nov. 3O.-Monday o. Crissey.
an old time resident OF this place, was
taken to Independence, having been ad-
judged insane by the county commits
sioners. His insanity is not Of dan
gerous form. although there We're fears
that 1t might possibly become so, nor
is 1t sudden attack, having apparent
~ been coming on him for week or
more. Some weeks ago the fiftieth an
niversary of his marriage was celebrat-
ed by number of his friends here, and
a considerable sum of money was pre-
sented to Mrs. Crissey. He has for a
number of years been very religious,
being influenced very easily by any
thing of a religious nature. Some re-
ligious services We're held at that gath
ering and the old man from that time
has been in very excitable condition,
going about the streets preaching. He
labored under the delusion that the
Lord had called on him to Clean up
certain resorts which have no existence
except in mis- mind, and that the city
owed him SO cents. Other mental va
carries attracted the attention of parties
in authority and he was taken before
the commissioners.

BoERs AS EXPANsIoNIsTs.
Sir Arthur Balfour Declares Beers
Are After More TERRITORY

London, Nov. 30.-Arthur j. 3alfour,
government leader in the house of com
mons. addressing the national conserv-
ative conference at Dewsbury, repelled
the charge that the governments mo-
tice in the war in South Africa was the
acquisition of the gold fields. Britishers
were now sacrificing the lives OF those
dearest to them. he asserted, for the
sake of the security and honor of the
empire. The first acts of the drama
We're being played in Cape Colony and
Natal; but the denouement would be
played, ne trusted, in dominionS not
now subject to the crown. Il have now
come to the conclusion" he said, that
the declaration of war by the Trans
vaal and the Free State was not any
despairing struggle for liberty. but a
bold bid for empire; bid TO make
themselves a nucleus of a Dutch
speaking, paramount power in South
Africa, and TO exclude forever the
British from dominating influence in
that part of the world. These people
have risked their all upon the stake of
war, and it is incredible that such a
risk would DE run merely to prevent
the outlander getting a vote. Their
dream may be madness, but it is intelli-
gent madness, when we consider the
whole situation and the military diff
culties that beset Great Britain in
South African campaign. They have
vainly counted on the British party
system. and another reason may be
found in their profound contempt for
British arms" In the course of an elo-
~, =.
he was not entitled to lift the veil hid
ing the future, Mr.. Balfour expressed
confidence that an era of peace, pros
perity and freedom would follow these
dark struggles

silver. Republicans Decide to Hold a
National Convention.


National Convention.
Chicago, Nov. 3O.-The national silver
republican committee gave the Asso-
of action taken at the meeting yester-
day:
"A resolution was unanimously
adopted that a national convention or
the silver republican party be held and
the executive committee was instructed
to confer with the democratic, populist
and national committees in an effort
to secure, IL possible. the holding Of all
three national conventions at the same
time and place at the earliest practica-
BILE date, to the end that complete CO.
operation of the reform forces be had.
The executive committee was author
ized to determine the number of dele
gates to the national convention, the
same to be not less than 1000, to ar
range a basis Of selection and allot the
representation of each state. 1t was
decided to call for convention to in
clude as eligible to representation all
voters who heretofore, prior to 1896, or
since, have acted politically with the
republican party, but are bimetallists
and favor the unrestricted and inde-
pendent coinage of both gold and silver
at the present legal ratio. who are op-
posed to the policy of extending the
gold standard of the United States by
retiring the greenbacks, destroying the
full money power of the heeexisting silver
dollar, providing for the payment Of all
government obligations and the re-
demption of all forms of paper money
in gold alone and surrendering to the
banking combination the sovereign
functions of issuing paper money.
Pledges were made covering the ex-
pense of holding national convention
Hon. Elwood S. Corser of Minneapolis
was chosen treasurer of the committee,
with instructions to maintain the re-
lations of practical cooperation with
the democratic and populist national
committees
The resolution was unanimously
adopted paying a high tribute to Hon.
Charles A. Towne, chairman of the ma
tionaI committee"

FIGHT ON MULcT LAW.
Litigation Involving Liquor Inter-
ests of the State started at Sioux

City.
Sioux City, Nov. 3o.-Iowa's liquor in
terests have at length reached a show
down in their fight against the Martin
mulct Law, under which all saloons in
The state are supposed TO be operating.
Tie outcome Of the litigation just COM
nlenced here, between the Sioux City
Brewing Company and persons en-
gagged in an effort TO enforce all the
provisions OF the code will mean either
tile practical nullification of the law or
the placing Of restrictions around the
saloon business which can not fail Sc
riously to iniure it in every consldera-
ble town throughout the state
The controversy was not precipitated
by the prohibition element. but by
former travelling salesman for the
Sioux City Brewing Company. This
man, y. u. Brauner. had lost his posi-
zion, and after several alleged attempts
10 induce tha company To re-employ
him commenced Injunction proceedings
against seven local saloons handling
the company.s product.
That the law had been violated there
was not the slightest doubt. The code
requires the payment of heavy
monthly license fee. 1t also requires;
that saloons shall be conducted iD
rooms on the ground floor, that they
may haze but one entrance, that no
screens or other obstructions be placed
IN front of the doors or windows, that
all shall close on Sundays and at 10
oclock every night and that chairs and
tables, games Of skill or chance, music
of any kind, women and winerooms be
vigorously excluded.
When the actions We're originally
commenced the ccmpany's attorney, G.
A. Irwin. asked that the proceedings be
transferred from the state to the fed
eral court on the ground that the Mar
Tin Law was in violation of the federal
constitution, inasmuch as it permitted
private individuals TO prosecute the liq-
uor dealers without the consent of the
authorities, and that it provided for
their conviction and the destruction of
their property without jury trial. The
state court overruled the motion, and
a few rays later Brauner and his attor-
ney, Eugene Lutz, We're arrested
charged with conspiracy to ruin the
brewery business.
The original nformations We're fol-
lowed by others. charging them with
an attempt 10 eNtort money from tne
company, and by a petition for Lutz's
disbarment. The cases will be tried
early in December. and promise to at
tract attention throughout the state.
Lutz announced his intention of re-
taliation upon Attorney Irwin with a
demand for the latter's disbarment.

pany and the local authorities for false
arrest and Imprisonment and malicious

Special 10 Times Republican
Grundy Center, Nov. 30. Contest pro.

of the board of supervisors and two
other persons. one selected by each of
the contestants. for the office OF sheriff
of Grundy county j w. Morrison is
the plaintiff and j. w. Pepperman is
the defendant. Pepperman was de-
clared elected by the board of supervis-

election. they having found that he had
a majority Of one. Mr.. Morrison feels
that he is not willing 10 concede the
election on So small a majority and SO
has filed his petition for a recount of
the votes of the entire county. and feels
quite confident that he viii win out
and thus make the Grundv county re-
publican ticket straight. Both parties
have engaged counsel. The first hear
ing has been set for the 11th day of De-
cember. Such cases do not generally
stop short of the supreme court so the
end of this litigation will very likely be
found some distance in the future.

the game, for should Wisconsin win to-
days game, the result of
game between Chicago and Wis

While no credence is given the rumor
that Ladysmith has fallen, the scare
serves to impress the public with the
danger Of what is still within the
bounds of possibility. Such a misfor-

that thus far the Beers have been able
to compel attacks by inadequate forces
