been necessary to draw heavily on the treasury; the council has provided for city barn, which was a step in the right direction, and the completion of the city jail will be highly commend ed. These things the people of Bis bee endorse. It was for these things that the citizens banded themselves together. Now, let us look little farther: Bisbee needs better fire pro- lection. The people of Bisbee would rather have better fire protection than an expensive police system. If the council cannot maintain and provide for both, then abolish the police sys- tenn. Let us have one thing at time. but let us have that thorough. With the present income the city should cer- tain.y maintain the city scavenger service free of charge Along this line the council should get back to the original aims and ideas of incorpor-
 tion. Don't try to walk too fast. The incorporation of the town is still very young and may be ruined by over training.
 The success or failure of city gov ernment in Bisbee depends on the present council Are you equal to tn , occasion, gentlemen:
 Don't be discouraged by the mouth ings of the malcontents. who are to be found in every community. Put your shoulder to the wheel and fix your eye on one thing at a time for the benefit of this community, and see that aim accomplished before anything else is taken up.
 Bisbee is not asking for Cheap John" administration, neither does it relish the idea of extravaganza. De vote your time and attention to the scavenger and health department and better fire protection, and let every thing else slide, for the present at least.
 4hO <NO6oiSS OoSAS III on the situation in Bisbee says: The people of Bisbee who organ ized a town government only a year ago, have already engendered a prop osition to disincorporate. Such a course would be a step backward, which no progressive town can afford. had the same issue some seven years ago. and the contention was fought out fiercely, but the pro- gressive people won. Now everybody that the best ends were at tained. The Bisbee people have among them no doubt some Of the same sort we have here The moment the diff culties of a given cause present them selves, they want to quit What they should do is to bring pressure upon the town authorities to carry out the objects for which the town govern ment was created, and failing in that, the next time elect men who will.

EMERSON STlRS THEM.
Says Government Is In Liquor
Partnership.

Rev. F. W. Emerson, of Topeka, Gre
ated a stir in Kansas City Sunday by
a temperance address.
The following account of the meet
ing is from a Kansas City paper:
From the time the national govern
ment entered into partnership with
the liquor traffic that traffic has grown
steadily until now it controls our gov
ernment-I say it boldly-controls our
government, and controls our state and
municipal governm ents as welli'
This assertion was made by the Rev.
E. w. Emerson, of Topeka, Kas., at the
First Christian church last night in a
temperance address to the American
Young Peoples Christian Temperance
union. The Rev. Mr.. Emerson is a
minister of the Christian church and is
subject of his lecture was, THE Bor-
der Warfare, Kansas the Battle
ground" The subject was somewhat of
a misnomer, however, as he declared it
the battle-ground.
I'VE could center this fight in Kan
sas,' he said, IF it were not for the
federal appointees who are always a
hindrance to the enforcement of the
liquor laws. They stand right in with
the saloon element and openly boast of
1t. The only way this can possibly be
overcome is to force the temperance
question into the national congress, and
L believe there's a way of getting 1t
there. Let US all petition congress to
repeal the internal revenue laws. Or
course, all the wealth of the liquor
dealers would be poured into Washing
ton to buy our representatives, and 1t
would be a terrific battle, but, be-
heve, with the grace of God, we could
win.
with the government law and the
government example out of the way,
the state and municipal licenses could
be revoked. The traffic would then kill
itself in six N onths."
Some of the speakers sensational
charges created a slight stir in the au-
dience. The district judge and county
attorney at Topeka openly boasted, he
said, that they were on the side of the
saloon men. Since the new Topeka
mayor was elected and a new chief of
police appointed, he noticed the bars
and saloon fixtures that had been in
disuse for some time moving back into
place again. He said saloon keepers
were foreigners and anarchists and
should not be permitted to remain in
the United States. The slavery QueS-
ton, he declared, could have been set
tied without bloodshed had it been set
tied fifty years sooner and he drew a
parallel between the liquor traffic and
slavery.
He denied that prohibition was fail
ure in Kansas. In proof of this position
he cited the fact that Kansas sent the
only regiment to the Spanish war every
man in which could sign his name.
There is no city in all this country
where the workingmen have better
Topeka he said. Talk about prohl-
bition not prohibitingi Look at the
happy homes throughout the state and
at the small percentage of drunkards. -
After the address a collection was
taken up and total abstinence pledges
ME J. Henry, M. D., president of the
Temperance union, presided.

SLEPT IN HIS CAB.
Mo. Pac. Engineer Brings About
Serious Collision.

Kansas City, Jan. 20.-Because an en-
gineef slept in his cab, two trains met
headon on the Missouri Pacific railroad,
near Elijah, 81 miles this side of St
Louis. Nobody was killed in the wreck,
but a dozen or more people were slight
ly cut or bruised. Among these were
Judge Elijah Robinson, William Hull
and Joseph b. shannon, of this city.
Judge Robinson was cut about the face
by broken glass and was considerably
shaken up. Shannon received a cut in
the face from the chain on his berth
and was slightly cut and bruised. Other
Kansas City people on the train were
Mayor James A. Reed, Frank Hager-
man, Attorney Jesse L. Jewell, ThoS.
Till, Fred Bullene and Walter Evans.
The collision was between a passen-
ger and freight train. The engineer of
the freight train had orders to pass the
weStbound passenger train at Elijah,
but was asleep when his train reached
that point. He awakened in time to see
the headlight of the passenger train in
the distance. Reversing the lever he
brought his train to a standStill and
ran ahead in the hopes of tagging the
passenger train But he was too late.
The fireman sprang in time to see the
passenger engine crash into the freight
engine, slide up over it and demoliSh
four boxcars. The fact that the pas
senSer engine slid over the freight en-
gine probably saved many lives from
being lost in the accident as the check
ing of the train was gradual.

SUIT OVER DEAD BODY.
Old Quarrel Over J. F. Crennan in
Supreme Court

One of the interesting cases which
will be argued at the February sitting
of the supreme court is the appeal of
j. NJ. Knight from the decision of Judge
Hazen which compelled him to give up
the body of ]. F. Crennan about two
years ago.
Crennan was the Topeka representa-
tive of the Standard Oil company, and
he was accidentally killed by an en-
gine. Mr.. knights an bulance was the
first one to reach the scene of the acc1-
dent, and he secured possession of the
body. Crennan'S relatives lived in
Ohio, and they instructed his friends
here to have the body prepared for
shipment and expressed to them at
Toledo, Ohio. Crennan's friends thought
Mr. Knight wanted to charge an ex-
orbitant price for metallic caSket, and
they decided to change to another un-
dertaker, but when they went to
Knight for the body he refused to sur
render it under any circumstances. 1t
was necessary to go into the district
court and secure a mandatory injunc-
ton from Judge Hazen before Cren-
mans friends could get his body.
Mr.. Knight was not satisfied with
Judge Hazen's decision, and he ap-
pealed the case to the court of appeals,
and when that went out of existence
it was transferred to the docket of the
supreme court. The main question in
volved is the possession of the body,
and if Mr.. Knight should win the de-
cision of the court would only be that
he is entitled to the body, although IL
has been buried for two years.
There are many cases on record in
the court reports of the country of
suits over the possession of bodies in
cases of removal long after burial, but
this case, where an undertaken sues for
the possession of a corpse two years
after death, is unparalleled.
w. F. Schoch is representing Mr.
Knight in the case, and Troutman &
Stone and c. F. Spencer are represent
froc n 70 TTho naS will
be argued in February and probably
submitted at that time.

PANAMA ROUTE.
Supplemental Report of 18TH
milan Canal Commission.
Unanimously In Favor of the
French Proposition.

Washington, Jan. 20-The president
today transmitted to congress the sup
Elemental report of the Isth1nian canal
commission on the proposition of the
Panama Canal company to sell its pro-
perty to the United States for $40, 600 600.
The commission unanimously reports
that after considering the changed con-
ditions that now exist and all the facts
and circums tances upon which its pres
ent judgment must be based. the COM
mission is of opinion that the most
practicable and feasible route for the
Isthmian canal to be under the control,
management and ownership of the Uni
ted States is that known as the Pan
anna canal route. The report is signed
by all the members of the commission.
1t was accompanied by a letter of
transmittal from the president to con-
greSS.
The original report of the commission
favored the Nicaragua route owing to
the fact that the Panama company ask
ed $109, 100000 for it's interests. In that
report the commission estimated the
French company's property at 100000
000 This sum the owners have since
offered to take hence the supplemental
report of the commission.
