Another Warden Candidate

Lansing, Mich, Nov. 19.-Former
Warden Hiram F. Hatch, now shirt
contractor at the Ionia prison, is the
latest candidate to be mentioned for
the Jackson wardenship. 1t should be
borne in mind in specializing on the

not an executive appointment, but is
to be made by board of three mem
bers, the governor being a member ex
officio. Further than that, two of the
members were appointed by Gov. Pin
gree.

MAKE FARMERS OF INDIANS.
"seIl Their Lands" Says Gov. Murph,
They Encouage IdIeness.


Washington. Nov. 1l.-Gov. Murphy
OF Arizona, in his annual report, adj
vocates the sale and settlement of the
large Indian reservations within the
territory, with the possible exception
of the Navajo reservation in north
eastern Arizona. and the government
construction Of reservoirs for water
storage for irrigation in suitable To-
calities, with canals leading to lands
allotted the Indians. The governor
says the latter action, in which Indian
labor could be largely utilized. would
help to make farmers of the Indians,
and that further maintenance. Of the
tribal relations as now conducted and
the retention of reservation agencies
around which the Indians cluster and
live in idleness on government rations,
most seriously retard the civilization
Of the Indians.

Gov. Bliss has decided to call an extra

never threatened to summon the mem

that no reason for doing so is suggest

Thu State WAS entering upon an era oil
municipal development, and towns on all
hands were issuing bonds for improve
ments Of all kinds. If these bonds were
taxed it would be impossible for these
towns to get a lower rate of interest.
1t would operate oppressively to the pub
Ii cby hampering the city in being able
to float its bonds.
Judge Graham was OF opinion that
there was no power to exempt these
bonds from taxation. and that such sec
ton should be in the law so that no
were exempt.

inclusive, be stricken out entirely

THE DRAWING COMMENCES.
Every Possible Precaution Made
to Secure a Fair Drawing.
EACH DISTRICT SEPARATELY.

FL Reno, July 29.-The Commission
ers in charge of the drawing at their
first conference made a formal an
nouncement of their plans. Under
these a platform was erected in the
street upon which the drawing COM
mences this morning in full view of all
present.
Envelopes containing the names of
all registered applicants were placed
in two boxes, one for each land district.
These are large enough and so con-
structed and mounted, as to permit q
thorough mixing of the envelopes.
The envelopes containing the names
of all who have registered are now,
a. NJ, being brought to the platform
in packages consecutively numbered.
A corresponding series of numbers
will be placed in a receptacle, from
which they will be drawn out at ran
dom.
The package of envelopes bearing
the first number drawn will be the
first one to be put in the drawing box,
and well distributed, when another
number will be drawn and another
picking of envelopes distributed, and
this course will be continued until all
of the envelopes have been placed in
the boxes, after which the boxes will
be revolved for a sufficient length of
time to insure thorough mixing of
the envelopes. These boxes will be so
constituted that five men can be en-
ployed in the drawing at each one of
them and the order in which they will
begin at each box will be determined
by lot. The first envelope drawn will
be number one Will be at once
opened and the Identification slip
which it contains will be given cor
responding number and the names an
residences which appears upon the
slip will be publicly announced. This
course will be pursued, numbering
each envelope and it's contents con-
secutively until twenty-five numbers
have been drawn from one box when
an equal number will be drawn from
the other box in similar manner.
This course will be pursued until
500 names have been drawn from each
box, when, if the committee deem it
best to do so, arrangements will be
made for drawing simultaneously from
each box.
After the names have been drawn
and announced they will be recorded
and notice prepared to be mailed to
the ones whose name is drawn. The
drawing will proceed in this manner
until every envelop in both boxes has
been drawn out.

Dried Emit on Trees.

Kansas City, July 27.-Peaches in
orchards around Kansas City are dry
ing up on the trees. Trees are well
loaded with the fruit, but for a month
the only transition has been for the
stone to grow. At present there is
nothing between the skin and the
stone. Apples are total failure. At
Weston, the Morris-Powers distillery
intended making apple brandy. it was
reported the apple crop would be an
entire failure. and similar reports
come in from Jackson county orchards.
Plums have yielded well, but curious
circumstance is that the flavor is sour,
even of the sugar plums.
