Iowa City, Feb. 16.-The members OF
the Iowa Evening Press association
held their second annual meeting in
Iowa City yesterday. John j. Hamil-
ton, of Des Moines, introduced reso-
luton, which was adopted. pertaining
to existing laws regarding libel, in part
as follows:
That we earnestly demonstrate
against the continuance of this dis
elimination against an honorable and
useful profession, and we petition the
honorable general assembly OF our
state to so modify the statutes that be-
fore prosecution for libel the pub
Usher shall be called upon by the ag-
grieved party for a retraction, and that
it such retraction is made in as public
manner as the publication complained
of, then it shall rest upon the plain
tiff to prove that the publisher was ac-
tuated by malice. We, ask no protec-
ton for abuses of the freedom of the
press, but only desire that the honest
and careful publisher shall not be pre-
sumed to be guilty of offenses which
every well disposed publisher constant
ly strives to avoid"

luton, wnichiwas adopted, favoring the
abolition of all tariff duties on paper

-Committee to Re-Present Res.

[From FL days Daily.l.

Des Moines. Feb. 16.-The operat ors
proved victorious in their contest with
the miners for a postponement, of the
jos conference till February 81, which
will be after,the meeting of the Illinois
operators and miners
At the session of the United Mine
Mine Workers of America Wednesday,
committee was appointed to notify
the operators that they would be eX-
pected to meet with the miners at ,
O'Clock Yesterday afternoon. The COM
mittee performed its duty but when
the hour of o'clock arrived yesterday.
only one operator appeared before the
mipers. This gentleman, Mr.. Bradley
OF Ventervilie, superintendent of the
.Appanoose district mines, said he was
NOT responsible for the action of the
other operators, and advised a post
ps&ement of the conference.
The miners went into secret session,
and after a long discussion, during
which some bitter reflections were cast
upon the mine owners, it was decided
to accede to the demands of the opera
tors and postpone the date of the joint
meeting until Feb. 81. Some of the
least conservative OF the miners were
in favor of ordering general strike,
but the resolution was finally adopted
by vote of about seventy-five to
twenty-five.
At the session tomorrow the
miners will elect officers and appoint
the scale committee, after which an
adjournment will be taken until the
Goth or 27th.
Some time today committee will
call on Governor Shaw and present the
resolution to him. censuring Mine In
spector Campbell for alleged neglect of
official duty. This committee is com
posed of Edwin Perry, John Reese and
l.. P. Joyce. They were instructed by
the miners to place their complaint
before the governor in such a forceful
minds of his eNcellency as to what the
miners think of Mrs. Campbelrs afficial
attitude on the ventilation and cage
questions.
A resolution was adopted memorable
ing Iowa members in congress to use
their best efforts to secure the passage
of the bill presented by the miners
OF the Indian territory. This bill
has practically the same provisions as
are contained in the Iowa mining
| laws.
1t was determined to add one more
member to the executive board, MAX
| ing the number eight in all, and a
resolution was adopted placing the
secretary upon a regular salary and
providing he shall devote all his time
to the duties of the office
In the evening the miners attended
the governors reception in body.

Barton made the mortgage under a
seemingly good title, but. plaintiff all
leges that the deed to him was forged.
After the facts became known Mr..
Kane did not dispute that the title to
the property was not in this plaintiff
and the decree was signed yesterday
afternoon. But here is the rub. Last
June petition was filed by John r.
Kane against John w. Barton, the
mortgagor, and who held no title to
the land in question, and G. r. Norton,
the notary public, who acknowledged
the mortgage. In this petition dam
ages are asked against the notary pub
lie on his official bond, and this is the
case where the fight will be. Nobody
disputed in the quiet titlecase that the
plaintiff did not have a perfect right
to have the cloud on the title removed,
caused by the Illegal mortgage. 1t was
a swindle pure and simple on the part
of Barton, it is said. and to which c. r..
Norton was an innocent party, which
however may not, affect his. liability.
The attachment case Of d. T. Evans
VS.. c. d. -tldridge was settled and dis
missed yesterday. The plaintiff brought
suit on promissory more for the sum of
ment issue on the goods and chattels
of defendant to secure the payment of
the debt.
In the matter OF the estate of Dem
mis- Moriarty, whose heirs cannot be
found after hunt of years, an order
was signed by the court yesterday APP
proving the final report of t. r. Bick-
ley, administrator of the estate, and
directing that he be discharged, when
he files receipt from the clerk of the
court for the sum of $963.65, the
amount of money in his hands belong
ing to the unknown heirs.
Court adjourned at noon today I'M
til tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.
In Bankruptcy.
The petition in bankruptcy of Henry
Beard, of Eldon, WHO gave his occupa-
ton as that of a wood mechanic, was
filed with Referee John w. Lewis to-
day. The liabilities are given as
amounting to $2,256.67, and the assets
at $125, the latter being claimed as
exempt.
The first meeting of creditors of C.
L. Hartman, bankrupt. has been set
for March Z, at o'clock, while that OF
Clara f. Hartman has been set for the
same day at $3.50 o'clock at the office
of the referee. A like meeting will be
held the same day at i o'clock in the
matter of the petition of Samuel Bir-
ney. These petitions reached the Of
lice of the referee yesterday.

rectly from the state of mileage due

if they see fit to give it to the guard
they will get the glory, and not
the politicians back of the other
scheme.

that the people of Iowa will permit the

Black Diam onds.

Black diamonds are comparatively
rare and correspondlngly high priced.
They are three or four times as hard as
the white ones, and fire cannot harm
them, however great the heat, but If n
drop Of water should touch them while
heated they will explode and leave
nothing but little heap of sand in
their place,
Their beauty is not remarkable. but
on account Of their extreme hardness
they are Invaluable for dressing sur
faces irpervious TO the friction of any
other material, The largest black dia-
monds are set in the end of Il round
short bar of steel with a handle CT
wood, and are used in dressing emery
wheels that have lost their "trueness."
a black diamond is the only substance
that will not be ground away by con-
tact with the emery surface.
Black diamonds are also used as
points in scoring pencils which are
used by senlers of weights and meas
ures to mark glass receptacles. They
are used by dentists for drilling teeth
before filling them with gold. In ap
pearance they look more like shining
little splinter of iron or grain of ccal
than precious gem, and their ch ef
mission is distinctly commercial and
not an ornamental one.
