A New Proposition.

The Strike Commission has had q
proposition submitted which NAV have
the effect to bring about a settlement
outside that body.
The commission was in session only 20
minutes Saturday. Immediately upon
convening C. S. barrow, counsel for the
miners, suggested that the commission
adjourn until either the first or third of
December. He gave as his reason the
inability of the miners to present ad-
ditiona facts and figures at this time and
said if the suggestion was agreed to he
bad the greatest confidence that it would
be productive of much good.
Judge Gray as chairman of the COM
mission in reply, said that he heard with
much satisfaction the suggestion of Mr..
Darrow and said he felt the adjournment
could be acceptable to his colleagues
la the meantime he hoped both sides
would confer regarding the submission of
facts and figures and hoped that they
might be able to consider other matters
satisfactorily. Both sides had made SUBJ
mission of their cases, ne said, and the
commission cannot abrogate its duty
to make final award unless the sub
missions are withdrawn.
Much is hoped for this attempt to
settle the issue and IL accomplished il
will be happy solution of the difficulty.
The agreement, as it is understood, is
that the contending parties shall come
together and attempt to adjust their
differences on the basis of 10 per cent
increase in wages, nine-hour day, and
trade agreements by which they are
employed II this plan does not succeed
the commission will be obliged to take
up the work where they left off on Sat
urday.

Successful Raid.

Sheriff Pencil assisted by officers
Clifford and Gilbair gave the Skowhegan
House thorough searching, Thursday,
the 20.h instant on warrants sworn out
by selectmen, Parker and Wyman.
They succeeded in getting two bottles
containing a small quantity of whiskey,
each, also a half dozen bottles, more or
less, of beer. This the officers got when
they first entered the house but they con-
tinued the search for two solid hours ex-
pecting to fiod hide containing guam
tity OF the stuff, but were not successful.
Selectnen Parker and Wyman accom-.
panied the officers to the hotel and took
part in the search.
Three warrants were issued, one for
search and seizure against Warren Tut
tie, Charles H. futile and Fred Towle !;
one for being common seller, against
the same three men and one for single
sale against Warren futile.
The respondents were brought before
Judge Bachelor, Thursday afternoon,
and pleaded guilty to all the processes
and sentences were imposed, as follows ::
On the search and seizure process, 800
and costs and to each of the three re-
spondents 60 days in Jail. The fine was
paid and the Imprisonment part of the
sentence was suspended so long as they
each refrain from violation of the pro-
hibitory law.
On the warrant as common seller the
three men pleaded guilty and a fine of
800 and costs and 30 days imprison-
ment, to follow, the sixty days imposed
in the search and seizure warrant were
imposed. Both fine and imprisonment
were suspended in this case on the same
conditions as in the first named case.
On the warrant for single sale Warren
Tuttle pleaded guilty and was given a
fine of 800 and costs and 30 days i'm
prisonment. This sentence was sus-
pended on the same condition as the two
former cases.
L. L. Walton, Esq, appeared 10 the
cases for the state and Forrest Goodwin,
for the respondents and the disposition
of the cases was the result of conference
between the selectmen, the counsel for
the state and counsel for the respondents,
sanctioned by the court. Two respon-
dents stood up in court and promised
man hOpnr ~ otoF, tho 10 ~ lipnoro In,
their premises and to sell no more liquor
in violation of law.
AS the cases stand, they pleaded guilty
to the several violations and sentence
was imposed for each offense. The con-
dition Of suspension is their refraining
frem violation of the law against the
sale of intoxicating liquors, and If at any
time, the court becomes satisfied
that the sale of liquor is resumed, he can
issue a mittimus for their commttal.
They have in these cases no power to
appeal.
The selectmen, the counsel for the
state and the court have no disposition
to inflct Imprisonment as a sentence or
even heavy fines. All they desire, and
all law abiding citizens of our town de.
sire and urge, is that the law shall be
obeyed and the sale of rum be stopped
That is all and that is enough.
Thanks to the selectmen in this recent
action ours is a dry town again. We
hope 1t may remain so. There are no in
surmountable difficulties 10 enforcing the
prohibitory law, once our officers mean
business and our citizens sustain them.

AT the recent election in Mississippi
only $1,000 votes were cast for members
of Congress, though there are In the state
over one hundred and fifty thousand
whites of the voting age, toisay nothing
about the nearly 200. 600 negroes of vot-
ing age. The disfranchisement of the
negro has practically destroyed the vot-
ing habit In Mississippi. In single New
England district at the recent election as
many votes were cast as in the whole

vote the whites would divide, but such

MU RRELL TELLS ALL.


 Another Chapter in the St Louis
 ssBoodle' Case.
 ST. LOUIS, Sept. 9.-Warrants have been issued by Circuit Attorney Folk against eighteen former and present Alembers of the house of delegates of this city.
 All eighteen are charged with bribery ill connection with the Suburban and other bills, and fifteen of the eighteen are charged with perjury because of testimony given by them before the grand jury.
 These warrants are issued on the confession of J. K Murrell, who is now in St. Louis in the custody of the cir cult attorney Murrell was brought from Mexico to St. Louis by the Post Dispatch.
 It is charged that the men for whom warrants are out composed a ''com- bine' in the house of delegates at the time the Suburban railway and other poodle bills were passed.
 In a statement made by MT. Murrell for publication he says:
 Il have surrendered internationally to Circuit Attorney J. w. Folk and have made full confession to him. I am not permitted to give the details of the evidence that I have put the cir cult attorney in possession of. This will all come out in the trials, and l am willing to go on the stand and tell all know. I held the key to the box in the Lincoln Trust company contain ing the $75,00O bribe money to go to the house of delegates upon the pas sage of the Suburban bill.
 ''This money was put up as the pur- chase price for the votes of the com bine, that price having been agreed l upon.
 "The combine of the house of dele gates was composed of nineteen men. When the Suburban matter came up before the combination, I was selected to negotiate with Philip Stock, the rep resentative of the Suburban railway. as to the best price we could get for our votes upon the passage of the bill. 1T am not permitted to make the op- erations of the combine on this particu- lar matter public at this time. The pur- l pose of the combine was to control leg l islation and sell legislation for the ben eft of the members of the combine. l Shortly before the Suburban bill came l up the combine sold their votes on the l lighting bills for SAT, ,500. This money 1 was handled by Kelly and was paid to l the members of the combine at a meet l ing arranged for that purpose at Julius l Lehmann's house Each member of the l combine received $2,50O. l "I was present and saw that money paid to the various parties. These are only two instances, but there are oth- CTS, evidence of which is in the posses l sion of the circuit attorney"
 It is stated that Murrell has been in the city since last Friday in the custo- dy of the circuit attorney.
