 We have called upon The Advertiser for the names of the papers whose rep resentatives voted an endorsement of President Rhodes's advice to the Demo- cratic delegates to prove disloyal to their pledges, but 1t has failed to an- swer. From the best evidence that we have been able to secure-from a par ticipant-there were just nineteen gen uine. simon-pure representatives of the press at Jackson's Lake on that day and as ten of those opposed the en- dorsement there were only nine left that endorse the traitorous advice. From our informant we secured the names of the nine papers whose rep resentatives voted to endorse. They are as follows:

Fort Scott's Peculiar Regula-
ton For Attorneys.
Occupation Tax Ordinance Dr.
vides Them Into Glasses.
S LEFT TO THEM.
May Enter ANY of the Glasses
They Choose.
First Glass Costs $50 While
Fourth Pays Only So.

PROBABLY the most peculiar occupa-
ton tax ordinance ever prepared in
Kansas is one that B. Hudson, city at
torney Of Fort Scott, is now preparing.
The plan of the ordinance is drafted but
IL IS not yet all typewriter.
Among its peculiar provisions will be
tax on lawyers and ministers by
classification. Lawyers will be divided
into four classes..frst,. second. third
and fourth. A first class lawyer will
nave to pay the city of Fort Scott $50
Tor the privilege of practicing law
there A second class lawyer will pay
class lawyers Will have to pay only IS.
They are issued a license in which it is
stated which class they belong to, but
they are allowed to choose their own
CLASS Every lawyer is required to
hang his license on the wall of his
office in plain view, just as pharma-
clsts are required to do with the phar-
maceutical certificates.
Mr.. Hudson expects this provision to
bring big revenue to the city He
does not expect that there will be any
fourth class lawyers in Fort Scott
All the boys are getting ready to
mortgage their libraries in order to get
into the first Glass; said Mr.. Hudson
today. We will have more first class
lawyers in Fort Scott when 1 get this
ordinance to working than any other
city in the country. There won't be a
single fourth rate lawyer in the town.
All you will have to do to find out
to look up his license. There you have
his own word for it, and if he says he
is first class it will cost him fifty dol
lars"
Mr. Hudson is here in company with
E S. Gates, another prominent Fort
Scott attorney, looking after the Fort
Scott poll tax case in the supreme
court.
The classification of ministers under
Mr.. Hudson's occupation tax will not
be according to what kind of preachers
they are, but according to the salaries
they receive. They will not be en- bar
raised by being required to give their
own opinion of their sermons. 1t is not
expected that this sort of requirement
will e1nbarrass a lawyer any, but with
a preacher it is different. His tax will
depend upon the salary he receives, or
is alleged to receive. If he gets 81 900
or more a year his tax will be So
Otherwise he will get off free.
Donation parties and such things
will not be counted" said Mr.. Hudson
land preachers who get only a bushel
of turnips now and then a dozen or
so pairs of slippers at Christmas time
will be let off easy. We may find out
what congregations don't pay up their

HALL IS ON TRIAL.

The defense will endeavor to prove
that Head was resisting arrest and that
Hall was justified in using his club
The prosecution will endeavor to show

Ensminger, for the defense, asked the
following questions:

you read?

Have you any prejudices against the
city administration?
Have you any prejudice against the
chief of police?
Have you any prejudice against
StahPs manner of enforcing the law as
he interprets it?
IF it came to a question of doubt
whether the defendant was justifiable
in making the arrest and of that I'M
fortunate result was an accident, would
you give the defendant the benefit of
the doubt?
IF it is shown that Cash Curtis and
Mat Cave are behind this prosecution
would that prejudice your mind?
IF there is a doubt as to the motives
which prompted the act will you give
the defendant the benefit of the doubto''
For the prosecution ATTORNEY Nichols
asked the following questions
Would the fact that the defendant is
a police officer cause you to give him

possibility that some radical recommen-
