Corrupt Election Methods.

the State 1t was thought that the old
charges Of fraud and ineglity. so long

no longer be heard. 1t was said tina,

better days were before us. Oldmethods
OF questional propriety were to be adj

sentiment and new rigid laws govern
ing the conduct OF elections. Were
these high hopes realized in the last
election? The two political parties in
this district are openly changing each
other with gigantic frauds-the Demo.
Gratis with stealing and the Repub-
Means with corruption. Both parties
are familiar with these charges. and
the best men Of both parties hoped to
near not even their echo, after the in
auguraion OF the new constitution.
But what do We hear? 1t is CHARGED
that the Democrats are trying to steal
the Ninth District from Col Slemp or
IL not to steal it outright, to turn IT
unlawfully in favor of Judge Rhea and
defeat the will Of the people. On the
other hand, the Democrats charge,
openly, that the Republicans bought
the District with money. If it is true
that Col. Slemp put large amount Of
money in the District, land we have
not seen 1t dinied, and that the Demo-
Gratis are stealing the District (which

TO steal one, and no sort Of political

No other. witnesses were called and
the jury adjourned until 4:3O this
afternoon.
The night operator at Laurel has
been ~subpoenaed and the IRON
said there would be other witnesses
to examine.
1t is quite probable that the jury
will not render a verdict until the
statements of the engineers on both
trains can be secured, This is i'm
possible at present, as Engineer Vau-
pell is at his home in Livingston suf-
fering from injuries that r much
more severe than at first thought.
Engineer DeGroat is in the hospital
at Livingston, and Brakeman Kenney,
who was on No. SIS engine, is in the
hospital here suffering from severe
burns.

Liberality of Pupils Makes Such In
stitution Possible.
From Wednesdays Daily Gazette
!. The public schools of the city are
to have a firstclass gymnasium at a
modicum of cost to the public. The
pupils of the different schools have
organized themselves into. an athletic
club and submitted a proposition to
the board of education in which they
offer to supply all the needed para
phernalia, provided the board as
sumes the cost of putting a hard
wood floor into the third story of the
new southside building.
The board has accepted the proposal
and a contract has been let for con-
.struction of a maple floor. Further
more, Miss Straub of the high school
corps has been assigned as instructor
of the girls. Miss Straub is a gradu-
ate in physical culture and will put
the girls through a course of gymnas-
tics.
Professor Daniels will be instructor
of the boys.

dent. The name of j. E. Kurtz vas
proposed and he was elected by ac-
clamation. In the same manner F.

"A resolution was unanimously
adopted %instructing the president to.
take steps at once to place the Bill
ings club in %atfiliation with the State
Republican club. The secretary was
authorized to correspond with party
leaders in various precincts of the
county urging the necessity Of or
ganizing auxiliary clubs, all to af-
f1liate with the state club.
A number of colored voters were
present and requested permission to
organize a club OF, their own, auxil-
liary to the regular club, and the
members thereof to be allowed to re-
tain their membership in the regular
club. On motion the request was
granted.
1t was ordered that the club shall
hold regular meetings at its rooms
Tuesday night of each week until the
close Of the campaign and longer if
deemed expedient.
Many new names were added to the
roll of membership last night and
every member present expressed him
self as being willing and anxious to
take off his coat and go to work for
the success of the ticket. In fact a

First Game OF Bowls Between Cham
pions and "Subs."
From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
While it would hardly be proper to
call it a professional game, the one
played last night between Tschudy's
team of highs rollers and Ovren'
subs was still exciting and close
enough to interest the spectators who
had gathered to witness the first con-
test in which the men selected to go
against the All-Americans had been
pitted against the next best ones of
the local bowlers, c~aptained by Ovren.
An error was made in adding up
the scores and for a time it was be-
lieved that the SUBS had won, but
when the figures were cast up the sec
ond time the error was discovered and
the supposed winners had been de-
feated by 81 pins.

MORE THAN DOUBLE.
chicaso's Receipts Of Cattle Com
pared With Last Year.

Referring to the receipts of western
cattle in the Chicago market, the
Drover's Journal says the total for
last month was $4,000 head, against
46,5OO in September last year. The
supply for the easo to date amounts
to 1853, 900, against 10000 for the same
period last year Thus it will be seen
that arrivals thus far this year were
more than twice as large as last sea
son.
Receipts in September showed a
gain Of $4,000 over September, 1901.
Western cattle were generally much
better in quality than last year.

COLOMBIAN GOVERNMENT RE-
SCENTS cAsEY,s ORDER.
WANTS USE Of RAILROAD
Geperal salazar Declares That United
States Is Attacking His Ma
tons Sovereignty.

Panama, Oct. 6.-After the confer
ence held here last week by General
Salazar, governor of Panama, Colonel
Nader CT the Colombian forces on the
isthmus and Commander Mclean Of
the United States cruiser Cincinnati,
no further difficulties were feared, for
it was believed that General Salazar
was satisfied that landing Of Amerf-
can marines on the isthmus had for
it's object the maintenance of free
railroad transit between Panama and
Colon.
The arrival at Colon of Rear Admir-
al Casey on the battleship Wisconsin,
however, has quite changed the sit
uation. 1t now appears that the in
structions brought by Rear Admiral
Casey to the effect that the transpor-
tation Of arms and unarmed military
employees Of the government or of war
material Of any kind, by the Panama
railroad, must be stopped, may result
in serious complications. At a con-
ference with Admiral Casey yesterday
General Salazar says that the United
States, according to the convention
of 1884, had contracted two separate
obligations, namely, to guarantee pos
itively and effectively, free rights of
sovereignty and property which Co
lombia possesses over the isthmian
territory.
He said further that if the Colon
bian government is not allowed to
transport it's troops and val material
by rail over the isthmus, not only
does the United States not fulfil it's
obligation, but it attacks Colombia's
rights Of sovereignty and violates all
principles of morality and justice;
that he as the representative of the
nation and government could not ac-
cept such Interpretation of the con-
~vention and that he must energetical-
ly protest. +
General Salazar said that an inter
probation Of the convention which
did not permit Colombia to transport
it's troops and wal material yer the
isthmian railroad constructed on its
own territory, while allowing other
nations and even those openly in re
bellion, to transport their material
over the road under the protection
of American marines must necessarily
be entirely erroneous. To General
Salazar Admiral Casey answered
that he was complying, with instruc-
tions received. He also said that he
would consult with. Washington and
see what could be done in the mat
ter.
1t is the general impression that
Admiral Casey has misrepresented his
instructions. 1t is considered fortu-
nate that General Salazar has acted
%prudently in this matter and that
cordial personal relations exist be
tween him and Admiral Casey, as
these facts may do much toward pre-
venting the very serious complied
tions which are now thought to be i'm
minent.
It is believed by Colombians here
that unless the Washington author
tiles send instructions to their repre-
s~entatives on the isthmus which do
not have the appearance Of attacking
the sovereign rights of Colombia, the
manner of handling the isthmian
question, which does attack Colom-
bias sovereignty, may decide the vote
Of the Colombian congress on the ca
nal bill.

MUST HEAR THE ENGINEERS

From Wednesdays Daily Gazette.
The c%oroner's jury in the matter of
examining into the cause OF the rail
road collision nea Rapids, last Sat
urday morning, re-convened at the
court house at 4:3O yesterday after
noon in order to hear the testimony
of G. E. Foster, the operator who was
on duty at Laurel the morning Of the
collision. Mr.. Foster failed to appear
and an adjournment vas taken until
Z p. m.
At that hour Mr.. Foster was present
and gave his testimony. He stated
that he was on duty at the time No.
8 passed his station Saturday morn
ing, and that the train arrived there
at 4:34 and departed at ABS. ten min
utes later than schedule time. He
said that he reported the time of the
train to the dispatcher's Office imme-
diately after it pulled out.
AS regards the time he reported the
train his evidence corroborated that
of Train Dispatcher Stack, who was
on the stand the day previous.
Mr.. Foster said that he took the
time from the clock in the depot and
was very sure that he made a correct
report of the leaving time Of the train.
o. J. David, night operator at Bill
ings, next took the stand. He testi-
fed that he was on duty when the
train in question, No. s., pulled out of
this station and that he reported its
leaving time at 4:1O, or five minutes
late. Conductor Kelley testified Mon
day afternoon that he vas four min
utes late in leaving here, and the diff
ference of one minute is very easily
accounted for by the fact that the
operator reported the train at the time
it passed the freight depot while Mr.
Kelley probably reckoned from the
second the train left the passenger
station.
Mr.. David said that Conductor Kel-
ley compared his watch with the
clock in the operators Office before
leaving and there was only 80 seconds
difference between them.
1t will be remembered that Conduc-
ter Kelley testified that he left here
four minutes late and had made up
one minute of the time when he reach
ed Foster. The evidence also show
ed that No. 5 was a comparatively
light train and had a first-class en-
CINE and how the train could lose six
minutes between here and Laurel and
five minutes more between that place
and Park City is a mystery that has
not yet been solved by any of the
witnesses. With only five minutes
in which to make nine miles between
Park City and Rapids, according to
the report sent in by the Park City
operator, it is regarded as unreason-
able that two old and experienced
railroad men like Engineer Vaupel
and Conductor Kelley, would, after a
comparison of time, pull out Of a sta
ton knowing that the opposite train
was on time.
The jury announced to the coroner
that it would like to hear more evil
dence before attempting to arrive at
a verdict and an adjournment was ac-
cordingly taken to such time as En-
gineers Vaupel and DeGroat are able
to appear and give their testimony.
