No Jurisdiction.

the arguments in the motion TO dismiss
the case against State Secretary George

same situation as before, without a
double ticket; two tickets bearing the
same names under different headings.
The tickets both being the result of the
nominations by two state conventions.

RAN DLETASSAILSASS0CIAT
Grating Attorneys Seem Gent on Rob
bling the indians.

Washington, Oct. 90 Lieutenant
Colonel Eandlet, U. 5. A., in charge o
the Kiowa Indian reservation IN okla
homa in his annual report to the com
missioner of Indian affairs vigorously
assails the Indian Rights association
and the government board of Indian
commissioners. The attack is brought
out by statements made at the last
Lake Monkonl, N. Y, conference,
which the agent alleges are misrepre-
sensations.
''It is apparent" says the report,
that the time has tome when the
righteous should, in praying for the
interests of this agency, plead God
save them from their friends, the
board of Indian commissioners and the
Indian Rights association, the latter
having developed as allies of grating
attorneys who seem bent on robbing
the Indians of the magnaminous pro-
visions made for them by by the act OF
congress of June g. 1900. This has en-
couraged the constant demand OF
legislators and congress that the pos
sessions of the Indians of this agency
be taken from them and has engend-
cred the want of confidence and distrust
which is disturbing the minds of the
Indians, who have raised the question,
What calamity have we to expect?"

Ruling Concerning Ballot.

Topeka, Oct. 1s.-Attorney Genera.
GODDARD rules that where a party had II
state ticket TO go on the official ballot
that space must be left for county
ticket of that party, even though that
party had no county ticket in the
field. This will make the official bal
lot cumbersome, but the attorney gen.
eral said he followed the ruling of the
New York courts on the New York
election law, which is practically the
same as the new Kansas law.

Topeka, Oct. 2O.-George X. Shar-
rift, clerk of the United States court at
Topeka, has sent out notices of the
fact that many canneries in Kansas
are sending out their products bearing
labels which represent that the goods
are put up at places in other states,
which have established reputation in
special lines. 1t is done in violation
of United States statute forbidding
such practices and placing heavy PEN
alties upon parties who are guilty of
them. The new law will ultimately
give each state the credit for the ar
ticles IL produces.

PRICES EASILY MAINTAINED.
Settlement Of Coal Strike Removes
Business Handicap.
VERY SPEEDY RESTORATION.

New York, Oct. 2O.--R. G. Dun &
Co.. Weekly Trade Review says that
the settlement of the coal strike re-
moves the only serious handicap to
industrial progress. Five months OF
restricted fuel production has begun to
check the wheels at many manufacture
ing centers, while there was percep-
tible diminution in consumptive de-
mands as the purchasing power of the
wage earners steadily decreased.
Savings have been exhausted and
much money has gone out of the coun-
try because of this struggle, but the
nations remarkable strong position
assures a speedy restoration of pros
porous conditions. Transportation is
now the worst feature, and threatens
to continue disturbing. While the
grain crops are being moved the supply
of rolling stock and motive power will
prove insufficient, although every effort
is made at the shops, liberal premiums
being offered for early delivery. That
the railways are well occupied is evil
denced by earnings for the fret week
of October 3.5 per cent larger than last
year and 1919 per cent above 1900.
Inadequate supplies of fuel caused
further banking of furnaces, but the
effect of decreased output of domes-
tic pig iron has been partially neu-
tralized by larger arrivals from
abroad. Footwear shops are actively
engaged, many producers having add
ed to their long list of orders, and
while practically all of the New Eng
land manufacturers are assured full
time up to the end of the year, they
are also taking orders for deliveries in
March. Prices are easily maintained.
Leather is slightly weaker, owing to
the sharp fall in hides, which has been
accumulated by the poorer quality now
coming on the market. In cotton
goods the feature was a purchase of
about 25O,oO0 pieces of print cloths.
While quotations were not altered, the
tone became decidedly firmer.
Failures for the week numbered 206
in the United States against 220 last
year, and "a in Canada, compared with

Transports VIII Not Bring Cholera.

Washington, Oct l6.-The army med
ical officers say there is little danger of
the bringing of cholera to this country
by the army transports from Manila.
The Sherman reported that she had
seven cases of cholera since leaving
Manila. This fact gave rise to appre-
hension. The Sherman arrived at San
Francisco twenty-one days after the
last case on board. AS the period of
incubation of cholera is only five days,
the disease must have died out long
before the ship arrived in quarantine.

Tremendous Simplicity.

New York, Oct. 17.-English moral
lists are staggered by the tremendous
simplicity of the negotiations for
bringing the coal strike to close
Neither sovereign nor prime minister
here could have interviewed in an in
dustrial crisis as the president has
done; nor is there any English financier
capable of playing Mr. Morgan's part
No labor leader has arisen in England
with Mr.. Mitchell's influence over the
workers. The strike if settled by arbi-
tration will be fresh proof, according
to English observers, that Americans
have the power of keeping their heads
while walking on the verge of high
precipice.

Counterfeit Dollar. In Manila.

Manila, Oct 15.-Counterfeit Ameri-
can silver dollars are being made in
China and circulated here extensively.
The suspicion is held that some of this
money was shipped from San Fran
cisco. The dollars are of silver and
are of standard weight. They have
been detected through the improper
stamping of the word Liberty" on the
goddess. The low price of silver insured
to the maker of this counterfeit money
a profit of 100 per cent. American silver
circulates as gold in the Philippines.

tors. He came west in 1872 and after
serving as brakeman on various roads
became a conductor on the Denver and
Rio Grande in 1884. He was elected
grand senior conductor of the Order of
Railroad Conductors in 1855 and in
1890, at Rochester, N. Y, was chosen
grand chief conductor.

TROUBLE BEGINS.

Trouble begins with the first back
ache.
Backache comes in many forms
sudden twinges of pain, sharp stitches,
slow. exhaustive aches.
Most backache pains are kidney
pains.
The kidneys fail to perform the
duties nature intends them to do and
the warning Of trouble comes through
the back.
Neglect the kidney warning, grave
complications will surely follow.
Urinary disorders, Diabetes,
Bright's Disease, are the downward
steps of neglected kidneys.

outIook 4. Rather Dark.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 16.-The arbi-
tration talk has acted as check upon
the movement of men returning to
work. The prospect for coal supply
is by no means bright If the miners
should accept the arbitration plan of
the operators it would take at least
two weeks before the details of send
ing them back could be worked out
As the outlook for arbitration is rather
dark, it can be safely said that there
will be little coal on the market for
some time to come.

PERMANENT TARIFF BOARD.
Could Keep Committees of Congress Con-
stantiy Informed.

stantty Informed.
Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 16.-Postmas-
ter General Payne in an interview said
that the Forthcoming annual message
of President Roosevelt to Congress
would probably recommend that per-
manent tariff board or, commission be
appointed. Mr.. Payne said:
"He will probably favor reduction
of import duties upon products which
no longer need protection. He is also
inclined to favor the creation of "a per-
manent tariff commission which can at
all times receive testimony subject to
expert considera ton and trade, sub
hitting it's reports and Recommended
tions to congress as other departments
of the national government. This will
insure the careful and thorough COM
pilation of all information accessible
and will save to congressional commit
tees a vast amount of labor. This was
the policy outlined by the president in
his speech at Logansport, Ind, and
which it is safe to predict will be en-
bodied in his annual address to con-
gress. He is strongly in earnest in
these views, as we'll as in those in re-
lation to reciprocity us feature of our
commercial intercourse with foreign
nations.
