the state or somebody pay the Indians
for the injustice done them.
make no mistake about It," he said.
"the tax title sharks ought to pay
them. The Indians ought not only be
returned to their lands, but ought to
be paid for their houses that were
burned. I've copies of the laws in my
grip, and l propose to show them at
the Indian department that the In
dams have been grossly wronged.
Somebody is responsible forNthe state
having put the lands on the tax list"
At the Indian department Tuesday it
was stated that nothing had been
heard of the Cheboygan Indian griev-
ances and until the governor produced
his documents it could not be stated
whether or not case could be made
out Of them.

report that he wrote pardon for Gen.
White before he left Michigan.
Funny report, isn't it?" he retorted
"Why there are lot of pardon blanks
at my office in Lansing already signed
/ always sign lot in advance so when
a man is to be pardoned l don't have
to chase to the capital to put my name
on the paper. All l have to do is to

name"

Says it's Usury.

Lansing, Mich, Nov. estate Tax
Commissioner Freeman expressed him
self freely Tuesday on the taxation of
mortgage credits. Regarding the dou-
BILE taxation argument he expressed
the opinion that if the validity of the
agreement whereby the mortgagor
pays the tax were to be submitted to
the courts, it would be held as usury,
just as was the case with the old pro-
vision that the mortgagor should pay
whatever attorney fee might be agreed
upon, no matter how large it might be.
He believes the legislature should
amend the law so as to prohibit such
an agreement.

REPUBLICANS
Of West Virginia Put Out Full State
 Ticket

Charleston, W. Va, July Ex-Governor, A B. White; Auditor Arnold S. Scherr; Treasurer, Peter Silman; AttorneyGen- eral, Romero H. Freer; Superintendent of Schools, Thomas c. Miller; Supreme Judges, Henry Brannon and George Pof- fenbarger; electors at large, Benson B. McMakin and J. B. Lewis.
 The Republican State Convention, after completing the foregoing ticket, adjourned at p. m. after being in session since 10 a. m, with recess from 12:40 to 2:30 Two candidates for supreme judges were
 nominated for terms of twelve years each
 Twelve years ago Judge Henry Brannon had been nominated by the Democrats and
 elected. Four years ago he changed his politics and he was today nominated by
 the Republicans to be his own successor and practically without opposition. Judge Freer, whose term in Congress ex-
 pires next March, had been MT. Whites op- ponent for the nomination for Governor. He was made the permanent chairman of
 the convention last night and became such favorite that delegates insisted on him
 going the ticket. There were 1,O54 dele gates and unlimited number of workers for the different candidates who crowded into the wigwam.
 In such contests as those for Auditor, Treasurer and Superintendent of Schools
 there were at times indescribable scenes of disorder. The chairman of the convention used maui, not gavel, but pounding was of no avail. Finally he secured a large megaphone, used on steamers on the big Kanawha for haling passing craft and at tempted to make himself heard, but no
 foghorn was equal to the general pande- monium.

In brief, the company appears to take the men at their own word and says: "Since they declare they do not believe a settlement can be effected which will be permanent as long as the present officers control the affairs Of the company, 1t is useless to talk about settling the strike by arbitration or otherwise

 ALLIED FORCES Engagement Lasted Six Hours and was Fought With Great
 Determination

London, July 12-(3:30 a. m.)-The Chinese situation presents an aspect more ominous than ever. A dispatch from Tien Tsin an nounces that after a heavy engagement the allied forces have been defeated and driven out of the eastern arsenal by General Ma.

 General Ma has defeated the allied troops and re-occupied the Chinese eastern arsenal, after iniicting great loss upon Its defenders. The engagement lasted six hours, and was fought with great determin- ation by both sides.
 "The Chinese were eventually able to use the effective guns of the fort abutting on the city walls near the Taotais yamen, the allied troops suffering severely from lack of heavy guns and cavalry.
 "The Japanese commander sent an urgent appeal to hurry re-enforcements as the allies were in imminent danger of general defeat"
 Eighteen days ago Sir Robert Hart dis patched his last message, declaring that the situation was desperate. and since then no word has come from the Europeans in Pekin.
