cumstances they could not do this con-
sistently, owing to the fact that Lewis

rives with the mails at an hour which
would be entirely too late for distribution

generally adjusted by the department at

There is one thing about Carson Val
ley farm property: 1t doesn't matter
how much a man pays for it, he never
pays too much. A dozen instances can
be cited where men have bought ten
and eleven thousand dollar ranches,
paid couple of thousand down, and
paid off the debt in five or six years
and had money in the bank. Farm
property here is held at high prices,
more per acre than in any other Sec
ton of the State, but it is good prop
erty, and the man who owns piece of
it is on the high road to success.
Charlie Watson, the engineer for a
California mining company operating
a mine near Coleville, Antelope Valley,
passed through here on the stage We'd
nesday with his head all tied up. He
met with an accident in Antelope Val
ley. He was sitting in the back boot
of the stage when some dogs came out
at a farm house and attacked the
horses. The driver cracked his whip
and the horses plunged forward so sud
denly that Mr.. Watson was thrown
out on his face. His nose and face are
severely cut and bruised and he looked
like a man who had been in a spring
scrap, but he is not dangerously in
iured aud will be all right again in a
few days.

The fumes of the cigarette will sooner

The surrender of Cronie demon
strates neat bit of generalship on the
part of the Boer commander which has
not yet attracted general attention.
He has evidently succeeded in saving
all of his large guns. In the siege of
Kimberley a number of these were
employed, while General Roberts, in
his official report, mentions the cap
ture of only a few small field pieces
This leads up to the belief that Cronie
has succeeded in sending his more i'm
portant artillery into the Free State
before the retreat of his army COM
menced. These guns will probably be
in evidence later on.-S. II. Post.

REFUSED a coNrlNuANcE.
Judge CantriM Decided That Henry Yout-
soy, the Goebsi Morder suspecs,
Must Appear In Court.

Georgetown, KY, Oct. 16.-When
court convened Monday Nelson, for the
defense, said the physicians reported
Henry Youtsey's condition unchanged
and asked for further postponement
of the trial. Franklin, for the COM
monwealth, objected. Col. Campbell.
for the prosecution, said that the doc
tor held that Youtsey was able to
hear, understand and reason, but that
he could not always talk. He endeav-
ored to show that Youtsey was simu-
lating. Nelson said he and Judge
Askew were alone with Youtsey and
vainly tried to arouse him. Judge
Cantrill overruled the motion for
continuance and said that all the
rights of the defendant would be
preserved under the law.
Col. Crawford asked that the physi-
clans be allowed to testify to the con-
dition of the defendant. The request
was granted and DIR. Carrick said
Youtsey was weaker and no better.
While DR.. Knox was testifying the
door of Youtsey's room opened and
he could be heard groaning and sob
bling Historically. Judge Cantrill said
he had no discretion in the matter
and that the trial must proceed.
The court said unless counsel would
agree he would have to rule that
Youtsey must actually be present in
court. No agreement could be reached
and Youtsey was brought to the door
of the jury room on his bed and the
door left open.

NEAR BRITISH FRONTIER.
Chinese Rebels Three Thousand Strong
Threaten Trouble North of Canton
Rebellion Well Planned.

Hong Kong, Oct. 16.-A column of
troops was dispatched Monday to the
Kowloon frontier, with the object of
barring armed refugees, either rebels
or imperial troops. from entering Brit
ish, territory when defeated. The
rebels are reported to be 5000 strong
80 miles north of the British frontier.
A thousand of Admiral Hos troops
are in pursuit of them, while 1000
Chinese troops have left Canton, over
land, to intercept the rebels. Admiral
Ho has informed the governor that
the rebellion was carefully planned.
The rebels are anxious to conciliate
the villagers and gain the. respect of
foreigners, hence the absence of out
rage nd pillage. All indications point
to the rising being widespread. Out
breaks occurred simultaneously in
several centers of Kwang-Tung and
Kwang-Si. Apparently Kang-Yu-Wei,
Sun-Yat-Sen and the triads have ANAL
gamated their forces in the COM
mon cause.-the overthrow of Man
chu rule in south China. Some
positive indications of the attitude of
the foreign powers is anxiously
awaited. A French launch was cap
tured by pirates October 10 near
Mongh-Chow. The pirates secured
$50, 900 in specie.

Canton, o., Oct 16.-There were i'm
portant accessions to the Bryan train
befort it left Akron Monday morning.
These consisted of Mayor Jones, of
Toledo, and Former Attorney General
Monet. Both joined the party up
on the invitation of Mr.. Bryan and it
is understood that Mayor Jones viii
continue with the presidential candi-
date on his New York tour. The first
stopping point was Canton, the home
of the NebrasEan's rival for the pres
idency. This place was on the timer
airy only conditionaTly and when Mr..
Bryan was told that he could have a
stop of five minutes If he so desired,
he replied that whether he should
speak or not would depend upon
whether there was a crowd at the
station. As the train drew into Can
ton there were cheers and a goodly
crowd was there to meet Mr.. Bryan.
He was received with cheers and made
pleasantly to the president and saying
that if he should not be reelected he
could always be an eX-president, as the.
lex was title that, once earned,
could always be held.
At Mineral Point there was also a
brief stop. Mr.. Bryan asked Mayor
Jones and Mr.. Monnett to come to the
car platform and then pointed to them
as specimens of men who were being
driven out of the republican party by
it's policies. He asked his hearers to
look at them and to then ask them
selves whether these policies are such
that they could remain with the party.
Mr.. Bryan made his first important
stop of the day at New Philadelphia.
The entire public square there was
filled with people to hear him. Mr..
Bryan spoke for 40 minutes and was
then followed by Mayor Jones and
Congressman Lentz. Speaking of the
ice trust and the accusation that some
of the directors of that trust are DEM
ocrats, Mr.. Bryan asked why the re-
publican governor of the state did not
suppress that trust and thus prevent
democrats and others from getting
the stock.

STRIKERS ARE STILL OUT.
Everybody Expects an Early Set
Element of Anthracite Troubles.
But It Is Only Rumor.
THE OPERATORS OPPOSE ARBITRATION.
Willing to Take Up Any Grievance with
Their Men, But Refuse to Recognize
the Mine Workers' Union In Any Way
Want and Ruin Are Following In the
Wake of the Strike.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 16.-Operatora
who were interviewed and asked what
are the prospects of the anthracite
strike being settled said the men can
return to work again as soon as they
accept the offer of the companies to
increase their wages ten per cent.
Officially, they do not know of any
-overtures by the strikers for set
Element on any other basis. They
have read of the action of the con-
vention at Scranton, but it was a con-
vention of United Mine Workers and
they do not and will not recognize
the union.
AS to arbitration, the operators are
utterly opposed to it, and will refuse
it in any form. They are willing to
take up any grievances with their
men, but they have always been SO.
and this is no change. Markle's ex-
perience with arbitration, they say,
has shown the folly of trying it, be-
cause it is altogether one-sidedr De-
spite the fact that each of Markle's
500 employees had signed a contract
to submit to arbitration any griev-
-ances they had, they all went out on
a strike at President Mitchell's order
without attempting arbitration. The
Officers declare an agreement to arbi-
Hrate would be binding to one side
only, that they would be held to it
and the men would not.
Want and ruin have followed in the
wake of the strike in the anthracite
region. Families who lived in comfort
while the mines were in operation now
feel the pinch of priyation and the
bare necessaries of existence seem lux
uries; business men, upon whom pros
.perity had smiled, have been brought
ito the verge of bankruptcy, thriving
stowns have become stagnant, casual
travellers have forsaken them and
newspaper correspondents and labor
leaders constitute the most important
element in the floating population.
The production of coal constitutes the
sole industry of this section. There
IS no farming in the neighborhood of
the collieries. The land is rocky and
barren. 1t has been stripped of tim
Der, and stunted pines, oaks and I'M
derbrush straggle over hill and dale.

-turbance is to the effect that a set

'cORRUPI|NG THE BALLOT.
This Was the Theme of Gov. Roose-
velt's Address to Kentuckians
at Lexington Monday.
REFERS TO LAST FALLS ELECTION.
He Said "the People Elected . Legislature
to Choose . Senator, and Saw Legisla-
ture That Had Not Been Elected Choo- .
. Different Senator''-Thinks the Up
Per House VIII Not Seat Him.

Lexington, KY, Oct. 16.-Gov. Roose-
velt was rendered hearty reception
when his special train reached here
Monday morning, making the first
stop of the day. A splendid crowd
greeted him at the railroad station
and expressions of enthusiasm were
heard on every hand. Gov. Roosevelt
spoke from stand in front of the
courthouse and was introduced by ex-
Congressman w. C.. p. Breckenridge
and ex-Comptroller NJ. J. Durham, who
served during Cleveland's first admin
stration was a parade in which were
several hundred rough riders. The
governor said in part:
In a sense there is peculiar state con-
test in Kentucky, but no contest for the
fundamental rights of manhood can be
merely a state contest. Last year you
elected a legislature to choose q senator.
and saw a legislature that had not
been elected choose different senator.
and there the nation comes in with its
rights. hope and believe that the upper
house, like the lower house, will decide
that no man shall be admitted to sit
within its walls whose election was at
tended with fraud and with a threat
against the rights of the people. The dan
ger of Imperialism in this country comes
from ourselves IL we are wrong. never
will we see our government fall unless we
connfve at and condone the outrages upon
the ballot, that corruption of the fran
chise which puts in power against the
will of the people those who sit in office
and deprive the Office of the men hon
estly elected to sit there. want to speak
especially to those democrats who still
remain under. the influence of a party
name that has lost all its significance.
At present your leaders are persuading
you to follow them on the ground that
they have cheated in your interests. Your
party leaders who cheat for your inter-
ests if it agrees with their interests,
would cheat you as they have previously
cheated their foes.
At Winchester the governor was
greeted by large crowd which
marched to the speakers platform.
Gov. Roosevelt spoke a few minutes
and was repeatedly cheered. Short
stops were made at Mount Sterling,
mining town, and Morehead. At both
places enthusiastic crowds were as
semb1ed. Shortly after one o'clock the
train left the latter place for Ashland.
