Des Moines. June 29.-Attorney Cen
leral Remley yesterday rendered an
opinion to State Treasurer Herriott in
regard to the controversy between Her
riott and Christopher n. Jones. clerk OF
the supreme court. Mr.. Remley re-
fused to answer the categorical ques-
lions first put to him by Herrlott be-
cause they did not apply to any actual
existing facts. But he has answered
the inquiry when directly put. He is of
the opinion that the clerk is the only
person authorized to copy supreme
court opinions and that in making
these copies he does so in his official
capacity as clerk and not as an indi-
Bvidual, so that the fees received for
copying the opinions must be turned
over to the state. AT the same time he
holds that Mr.. Jones should be com
pensated for the expense of having the
work done. Under this ruling 1t is be-
lievctt Mr.. Jones will be asked to turn
in about $4,000. He has not determined
what to do in the matter. as the opin-
ion has not been made public or sub
mitted to him.

Indiana Supreme Court Decision De-

indianapolis. June eaThe Indiana
Natural Gas and Oil Company, which
pipes gas to Chicago, was given blow
by the supreme court in one of the most
advanced decisions handed down on the
natural gas question. The court holds
that no gas company has the right to
pump gas from we'll. All the big pipe
lines have resorted to this course for
come time on account OF the decreasing
supply. This decision eventually Will
shut Off most of the towns that are not
Immediately In gas territory.
1t is held that land owner has right
only to so much OF the gas as flows nat
urally to the surface. Where he pumps
it the back pressure which confines the
gas in Trenton rock is removed and salt
water rushes in, coon destroying the gas
supply. Each man has n co-equal right
to this reservoir. the court holds Un-
natural flow is declared Illegal.
In this suit the manufacturers of
Marion united to force the pipe line
companies out OF Indiana. There are
three more suite pending, one OF which

the court pursues its trend in this case
Chicago, indianapolis and many other
cities Will be shut off entirely. as the
natural gas flow is never strong enough

Chicago depends largely on its supply
from the Grant county line of the Indi-
ana company. and while the managers
claim they will appeal the case to the

state supreme court remaining dormant

KANSAS STOPS rWINE MAKING.
Prison Plant 10 Temporarily Closed Z
Affected by Northern Crop Failure.

AnectGd by NOrehern Crop Failure
Leavenworth, June 29.-The Kansas
!penitentiary twlne plant is not running
at present, and 1t will probably make
no more Irvine for some time. AT pres
-ent the Irvine machinery is undergoing
and few prisoners are
engaged in making rope.
There are two reasons for closing the
plant and the main one is that q large
amount Of Irvine remains unsold. There
is about SOC, 900 pounds or nearly ss0, 600
worth, of tWine stacked up in the ware
rooms. The second reason is that the
price of raw material Is very high at
present ard the chances are that 1t will.
fall within couple of months. All
wheat binding Irvine made from now
on has to be carried over until next
season, and should the price Of raw
material decrease the state would suf
fersa loss by buying al this time.
The making of Irvine MT the peniten-.
tiary has proved beneficial to the farm
ers of Kansas, but so far 1t has not
heen very profitable to the state. Kan.
sas wheat raiseTs have been able to get
their tWine from to 5 cents a pound
cheaper than the Irvine trust intended
TO sell it for. The trust Irvine finally
came down to penitentiary prices. and
cuts We're made on both sides.
A strong fight was made against the
penitentiary Irvine on the part of the
Irvine trust. All kinds of untruthful
stories We're told about the size of the
balls shortage in length of Irvine to the
pound and that it clogged the machin-
cry of binders. These stories tended to
retard the sale. The penitentiary Irvine
had to be paid for when ordered and as
many implement dealers sold on credit,
this also retarded the sale Of the prison
Irvine.
So far as the sale of twine in Kansas
assconcerned it turned out fairly we'll.
The officials can not sell large quanti-
ties as they expected. in Nebraska and
\ the Dakotas. owing to the failure of the
wheat crop in the states north of here.
There is a good wheat crop in southern
Nebraska, and much Irvine has been
shipped into this territory. but none

Cedar Rapids. June 29.-The date of
holding the democratic state conven-
tion. together with the names OF the
temporary officers Of the convention.
will be decided on July 3, when the
members OF the state central commit
tee meet at Kansas City. to attend the
national convention. AS has been here
$tofore announced, the convention will
be held in this city, probably about
August z or IA, at the Auditorium. As
soon as the date of the convention is
decided upon. the local committees will
proceed with the making OF all neces-
isary arrangements, and as the duty of
entertaining the delegates Is not a pos
slitical affair, the local republicans will
doubtless lend willing hand. Handi-
capped. as this city is, with the repu-
tation Of not having adequate hotel
facilities, IT will be necessary to demon-
strate how easily and how comfortably
such a convention can be entertained.

single event in Its history.
