After the election the pop World

for whom you vote, but if a single
pop pulls through it will point to a
pop victory and at once commence
to build around that victory for the
presidential election two years

The World advocates the taking
of the coal mines from the operators
by the government. 1t has probably
never read that part of the constitu-
ton which provides hat mo man
shall be deprived of life, liberty or
property without due process of
law" There is no law under which
Congress could take such a step.
There is no law under which
Congress can relieve the situation.
Nor can Congress pass such a law
until power to deal with corpora
tons is taken from the states and
given to the general government.
The republicans took the initiative
in making it possible to pass such a
law; the dems and pops in Congress
killed it. Place the blame where it
belongs.

The World says that as long as
this is an off year it will make no
difference who is elected, if this is
true take no chances but vote the

yourself be wheedled into voting for
a party that cannot tell you why you
should so vote.

The people of South Dakota are
corginced that Senator Kittredge is
becoming an important factor in nat
ional Legislation. They are realiz-
ing that he is growing in popular
estimation, both at home and abroad.
While he has been in the senate but
a short time, the people of this state
have reason to believe that he is
among the most influential Of the
new members. As Walter Wellnan,
the noted newspaper correspondent
has expressed il, a "new man has
come out of the vest" His work IN
connection with the canal question
stamped him as a man of research
and n OF ability to grasp national
questions. That he will be returned
to the senate is a foregone conclusion
and that he will become one of the
leaders OF the republican party in
shaping legislation is evident. Pub

BURNS GOES FREE
SUSPECTED OF THE MURDER OF
WALTER BROOKS.

New York, aMrch 22:-Florence
Burns, the young Brooklyn woman
who has been in the custody of the
police of this city since February Is,
under suspicion of knowing how
Walter Brooks met his death, was dis
charged from custody by Justice
Mayer tonight. Brooks. who vas a
young commission merchant here, had
been keeping company with Florence
Burns. He. was found dead the night
of February IA, in a room at the Glen
Island hotel. The gas in the room
was turned on and there was a bull
let wound in the head.
The district attorney tried to show
that Florence Burns was likely to
have killed Brooks because he was
trying to break off association with
her. The defense advanced the sui
eide theory and for several days JUS
tice Mayer has been examining into
the two theories. He finally decided,
when the hearing closed tonight, that
nothing had been brought out suf-
icent to hold Florence Burns to the
grand jury. After her discharge she
returned to her home in Brooklyn.

TO Be TRIED FOR HEREsY

Mcpherson, Kan, March 22.-Rev.
Granville Lowther, against whom
charges of heresy have been preferred
in the M. E. conference which will
meet at Arkansas City next week,
has been practically sustained by his
church in this city. Four-fifths of the
members have voted in favor of re-
tanning him. Rev. Mr.. Lowther today,
in explaining his idea of the tempta-
ton of Eve, which teaching prompted
the filing Of the charges against him,
said: ION the temptation of Eve we
maintain that the language used with
reference to the serpent that tempted
Eve was fgurative rather than literal;
that the methods used were serpen-
tine, subtle and deceptive in their
nature; that the serpent was a mar
of the same race to which Adam and
Eve belonged.
"The fact of the temptation was
written by Moses at least 1890 years
after the temptation. It would be
only natural that the spiritual idea
would be lost sight Of and the sign
stand for the thing signified. This
makes the temptation harmonize with
the temptations of men today as we'll
as harmonize with reason land does no
violence to the sacred record while
any other theory requires a miracle
and is irrational and unnatural. We
do not deny the power Of God to per-
form miracles, but when the scripture
can be made more reasonable without
a miracle we prefer the rational in
depreciation"

The Aristocracy in Russia Largely

st. Petersburg, March 22.-The gov
ernment's condemnation of rioters to
varying terms Of Imprisonment and
exile have numbered several hundreds
within two weeks. It is not true that
the persons arrested are chiefly Jews.
Only a few Hebrews have been SEN
fenced. The vast majority of the pris-
oners consists of noblemen and noble
women of Great Russia, a few Geor-
gian, Polish and Little Russian aristo-
Gratis and representatives of the in
dustrial, commercial, professional and
student classes. The rioters demand
reforms for the relief of impoverished
peasantry, obligatory free education
and liberty for the individual and the
press. The people arrested and those
like them constitute the fighting van
guard of the entire body of enlighten-
ed Russian society.

Russia's shipyards Will Do All Cars
Naval Work.
New York, March 22.-According to
Colonel P. P. Tchignorsky, of the Rus
sian navy, who has just sailed with
his wife and daughter for home on the
steamer st. Louis, Russia is not like
ly to order any more war vessels from
foreign ship builders. He has been
in this country experimenting the
construction at the Cramp yards of
the Varing and Retvizan for the Rus
sian navy. These vessels having
been completed, he, is now on his way
home.
Russian yards" he said, "have a
capacity for building eight ships sim
ultaneously. I have prepared a re-
port on American methods which will
have the effect, I think, Of doubling
their capacity. If at any time Russia
should need any more warships from
a foreign country. America will get
the order. The United States is far
ahead of any of the European coun-
tries in the building of battleships,
and its ideas are more advanced"

lieve that ammunition found in the
ruins of the Hoboken fire was intend
ed for the Beers.
''The Beers have no money to buy
ammunition" he said, "but when they
need any all they have to do is to
capture a British convoy and they
have enough to supply them for a
long time. The Boer-British war will
establish a precedent for other wars
to- come in the inhuman fashion in
which it is being carried on. 1 asked
the president to appoint a commission
of army officers to reiew the conduct
Of the Boer-British war, but whether
he will do so I cannot say"
Mr.. Vessels said the Beers have no
uniforms of their own and. therefore,
when they run out of wearing apparel
their only is to take British
soldiers clothes, from which the dis.
tinguishing marks were always remov-
ed, even 10 cutting off the coat but.

LEFT BROWN STONE FRONTS
CAVE-IN MADE 1T DANGEROUS TO
REMAIN.

New York, March 21.-Park enu
this city, today was again the scene
of an accident, which, while it entail
ed no loss of life, caused a property
loss of considerable proportions. The
brown stone fronts of several four
story private houses on the east side
of the avenue sank because Of the un-
derming of the foundations by exca-
vations for the Rapid Transit tunnel.
The first serious cave-in occurred
when the sidewalk and area way of
No. IS Park VEN sank to a on
siderable depth leaving the front wall
with no support and exposing the eel
lar. The houses on either side of No.
IS were also rendered unsafe.
Later in the afternoon there occur
red a further settling of walls and
sidewalks and residents on the east
side of the block we're ordered by the
police to leave their homes.
The tunnel. along Park avenue,
where the trouble occurred, is bored
through solid rock. On account of
seams in the rock an area of 60 feet
in length commenced to slide in a
lateral direction into the tunnel We'd
nesday night. It was not believed.
however, any great damage would be
done until today, when the first cave
in occurred.
The financial loss was estimated at
from 5000 to $780, 900.

ALICE ROOSEVELT

Berlin, March 22.-The yacht which
Emperor William has named the
"Alice Roosevelt" is beautifully deco
rated in the modern, impressionistic
style which his majesty disapproved'
of in his recent art utterances. Never
theless the emperor was greatly pleased
with the decorations when he saw the
Yacht at Kiel this week. The artists
y'nre selected by Admiral Won Thorn
SCI. The walls are done in serpen-
til effects, the woodwork is silver
gra' and the upholstry is of a strange,
vivid tint. The yacht was built for
a torpedo boat and why she was trans
formed into a yacht is. not explained,
but it is supposed this was on account
of her rather too delicate framework.
considering the British governments
recent experiments with torpedo boat
destroyers. The "Alice Roosevelt"
which is still at Kiel, will be trans
fered to Wilhelmshaven 500 for the
use of Admiral Won Thomson as COM
mander of the North Sea squadron
Prince Henry, with the first squad
ron, will visit Spanish waters in May,
when the young king of Spain is en-
throned.
Prince Henry's son, Waldemar, ap-
pears to be more seriously ill than
supposed last week, when he went to
the White Stag sanitarium at Dres-
den. He has difficulty in walking,
and is carried about a good deal, and
also rides in a pony cart. Waldemar
celebrated his thirteenth birthday on
Thursday. his presents included some
of the things Prince Henry brought
from the United States for him.

IRISH CHAMPION KNOCKED OUT

RHULIN LANDED ON HIS JAW
Bell Found Him on the Floor and Sec

Corner.

Philadelphia, March 21.-Gus Rub
lin and Peter Maher met at the In
dustrial Athletic club tonight for a
six round go and in the latter part of
the second round Maher went down
and out from a hard left on the jaw.
Rubin had the best of the go as far
as it went. He repeatedly rushed
Maher to the ropes.
In the first round the men rushed to
a clinch, Rubin jabbed his left to
Peters face twice and they again
came to a clinch. Gus again jabbed
his left to the face and Peter returned
his left to Ruhlin's ear. Several ex-
changes followed without particular
damage. Maher then planted a right
on Ruhlin's eye bringing first blood.
The men were sparring as bell sound
ed.
In the second round Peter opened
with a left on the forehead and receiv,
ed a left on the jaw that sent him
down for a count. Gus then rushed
Peter to the ropes and after an .ex-
change smashed Maher again on the
jaw. Maher looked weak and was
again rushed to the ropes with Rubin
landing right and left. After a few
light exchanges Peter was again sent
to the ropes with Gus jabbing him re-
peatedly on the chin. Gus then
smashed right and left to jaw and
Peter went down and out.
The bell found him on the floor and
his seconds carried him to his corner,
completely done for. He revived in a
short time, however.

BE RENEWED.
TWO SUITS TO Be STARTED
One in Minnesota State Courts Other
in Federal Court of State
of Washington.

St. Paul, March 22:-The Pioneer
Press tomorrow will say that Attor-
ney General w. B. Stratton, of the
state of Washington, has been in the
city during the past week in consulta-
ton with Attorney General Douglas
and that plans have been outlined for
proceeding against the so-called merg-
er of the Great Northern and North
ern Pacific railroads. The plan en-
braces suit against the two railroads
and the Northern Securities company
in the state courts of Minnesota and
against the same defendants in the
federal courts of Washington state.
1t had been argued that because the
Northern Securities company vas a
foreign corporation, that the state
courts would refuse to take jurisdic-
ton over it, and that as the decision
of the supreme court of the United
States held that Minnesota's remedy
lay in her own courts the state was
helpless to act against the proposed
merger. Attorney General Douglas,
however, has come to the CONCLUSION
that as the situation is unique, in that
a sovereign state would thus be left
at the mercy of a foreign corporation,
formed as alleged, for the purpose Of
violating the state law, the courts will
take a broad and liberal view Of the
matter and allow the state to present
it's case before them. r
AS to the proposed action in the fed
eral courts of Washington, that state
is not barred from the federal courts,
because one of the corporations is a
citizen of that state. The allegations
and complaints to be brought in that
state, it is said, will be identical with
those made in the United States SUI
preme court by the state of Mime
sofa.

teous Delegates Gave It Her.
Sioux City, Iowa, March PA pref
ty, blue-eyed, brown-haired girl of 1S,
Miss Louise Marie Skogerson, swept
the republican city convention off it's
feet yesterday afternoon, and 121 dele
gates shouted themselves hoarse NOM
mating her crippled father, o. Skoger-
son, for superintendent of markets.
There were six other candidates, but
they had no more show of getting that
humble, $60-a-month position from the
father Of the truly pretty girl who
smiled and smiled on the delegates
as she asked them modestly to vote
for her father, than they could Of be-
ing president of the United States.
While the convention was yet vot-
ing for police judge, she appeared, and
began distributing printed tickets
with her fathers name-the only wo-
man in the damned and crowed room.
Her form was followed by the dele
gates as she went quickly up and
down the benches, and all interest
was lost in the police %judgeship.
When the seven nominees for super
intendent of markets were put before
the convention, Miss Skogerson was
still moving about among the dele
gates. The first ward divided it's vote.
The second cast all but two for her
father. She stopped short in the aisle,
her arms akimbo, and watched the
voting. The third ward chairman
called out, "Twenty-seven for Skoger-
son." and the house broke into cheers,
and the blue-eyed girl, her eyes dane
ing, clapped her hands. The fourth
split, but Skogerson got the big end.
The fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth
went solidly for Skogerson, and when
the result was announced the conven-
ton cheered Justify.

CONTESTED ELECTIONS.
Committee Report in Favor Of One
Member and Against Another.

Member and Against Another.
Washington, March 22.-The house
today entered upon the consideration
of the contested election case of Moss
VS.. Rhea, from the third Kentucky
district. In this case the committee on
elections divided on party lines. the
majority sustaining the view that
Moss had been elected and the minor
ity that Rhea, the democrat, was en-
titled to retain his seat. On the face
of the returns Rhea had 1856 plurality.
According to the contention of the
majority certain votes rejected under
the Goebel election law would trans
fer this plurality for Rhea into a plur-
ality for Moss of Il.
Mr.. Mann of Illinois and Mr.. Smith
of Iowa spoke for the majority today
and Mr.. Burgess of Texas for the mi
nority! An agreement was made
whereby a vote shall be taken next
Tuesday.
Before taking up this case a unan
imous report of the committee in the
case of Spera VS.. Burnett from the
seventh Alabama district, confirming
the title pf the sitting member to his
seat was adopted.
