or considerable consequence to AIi- zona isJhe effort now being made to segregate, or rather dIferentiate min erai lands on InGian reservations, writes ]. Henry Wood in the Lps An- geIes Mining Review. Many previous attempts have been made m this d. rection without success, hence there iS much doubt as to the outcome Of the present move. The work now progressing is in the form of bill be- fore congress asking that mineral lands within reservations in the terri tory be open to- entry the same as other public lands. The bill, intro duced by Senator Carmack of Tennes- see, provides that in addition to con- plianCe with present laws and regula- tons governing mineral locations, the mines taken up on reservations mus contribute royalty consisting of five per cent of the net profits arising frUm their operation, such profis to Dc dehred by the eCreJary of the iu- terior. Presumably, under that au- thurityr the secretary would include in net profits any gain made in sales of the mines, even prior to operations being commenced. Thefund accumu- lating from the royalty payments to be held in trust for the tribes on the several reservations, its expenditure being under control of the commis- sioner'Uf Indian affairs.
 At the present time leases of min era! lands on reservations are obtain. able from the interior department, but the secretary is not very anxious to tie up the resources in this way, and only short time leases are easily got ten: such leases as do not warrant large expenditures for mining plants.

eoies Defeated by a Big Majority,
While Lacey and Hedge Win Out.


Des Moines, Nov. 7.-Complete re-
turns from the ninety-n!ae counties of
Iowa show that Martin. head of the re-
publican state ticket, leads Burke,
head of the democratic state ticket,
74,7S5. Last year On governor the re-
publican plurality was S3,0S0. The re-
publican loss is thus 1926. This year
the democrats carry twelve counties,
Bremen, Carroll, Clinton, Crawford,
Davis. Des Moines, Dubuque, Fremont,
Ida, Johnson, Lee and Scott. A year
ago the democrats carried eight. The
counties which reversed their position
were Crawford, Des Moines, Ida and
Scott. Otherwise the political com.
plexion of the counties are unchanged.
The Iowa delegation to the next con.
gress will consist of ten republicans
and one democrat-the first Iowa has
sent to congress for ten years. The
successful democrat is Martin ]. Wade
of Iowa City, candidate in the Second
district. The later news served to in.
crease rather than diminish his plur.
atty, and complete returns from the
district show that he has a plurality
of Lac over William Hoffman, his op-
ponent.
The other districts are safely re.
publican. Judge Conner of the Tenth
district mas the honor of the largest
plurality, it being in the neighbor.
hood of $4,000. Among the gratifying
features of his canvass is the fact that
Crawford county, his home, tradi.
tional democratic Gibraltar, gives him
a plurality. The vote in Crawford
county was: Conner 1856, and Fal
tinson 1,947, plurality of nine votes.
Congressman Hepburn In the Eighth
district gets the compliment of an in.
creased plurality, receiving this year
more than 5000, against 1921 two
years ago. Judge Smith in the Ninth
district has a plurality exceeding
5000, or about the same as two years
ago. In the seventh district Congress
man Hull has 10000, or little less
than two years ago. In the Eleventh.
Congressman Thomas estimates that
he will have about $500. In the
Fourth district, Congressman Haugen
has 1000, or 1900 less than two years
age. In the Fifth district, Congress
man Cousins is reelected by approx
mately 5000.
In the contested districts of the
First. Third and Sixth the unofficial
figures complete show that Congress
man Hedg1 has 1880 plurality, Judge
Birdsall 5,255 and Congressman Lacey
1,769. The later returns have tended
to increase republican pluralities in
all the close districts except the
Second.

BALLET is SENTENCED.
Given One Year in County Jail and
Fine of $500.

Des Moines, Nov. S.-Letson Ballet,
convicted in the federal courts last
spring on a charge of using the mails
to promote fraud, was yesterday
sentenced by Judge Munger to one
years Imprisonment in the Polk coun.
ty Jail and to pay fine Of $500. Judg.
ment will also be entered against Bal
liet tor the costs incurred by him In
the aefense of the suit. The govern
ment will be required to pay its own
costs. With allowances for attorneys
fees it is estimated that the costs
amount to about $4,000, of which Bal.
liet will have about half to pay.
Immediately upon the sentence Bal.
liet, by his attorneys, gave notice Of
an appeal. Later In the day he filed
bill of exceptions and was released
on a $1,000 bond pending a decision on
appeal.
Ballet appeared IN court with his
father, former Judge Ballet, shortly
after it had been convened. Judge
Bishop, who was his attorney during
the trial of the case, was in court, but
when the case was called Judge Carr
appeared for the defendant, saying
that Judge Bishop, because of his ap-

court, desired to withdraw his appear.
ance.
Judge Munger said the motion for
new trial had been submitted to
him on written arguments and that af-
ter careful review OF the case he had
come to the conclusion there was but
one point to be considered, and that
was whether or not the court had not
erred in permitting so much testimony
to be introduced relative to the intent
of the defendant in mailing circulars.
He said that most of the transactions
testified to show intent occurred in
California, while the act complained of
was the mailing of circulars in Polk
county, Iowa. He said he was salts
fed from the record that the defend
ant lad mailed the circulars for the
purpose of defrauding those to whom
they were sent, that he had diverted
large sums of money subscribed to
the stock OF his Oregon mining COM
pany, that much of 1t had been used
for injudicious advertising and adver-
tising Ballet himself, and that more
of 1t had been used for his own per-
sonal affairs. He said that the evil
dence of intent, while voluminous. was
not detrimental to the defendant inso-
far as he could see. He declared the
motion for new trial would be over.

ELEPHANT cHoKeo TO DEATH.
Became Unmanageable and Execution
Was Deemed Necessary,

New York, Nov. 10.-Mandarin. an
elephant of the Barnum C Bailey cir
Gus, was executed by strangulation in
his cage on the main deck of Tie
steamship Minneapolis of the Ameri-
can Transport line.
A two-inch hawser was placed in a
loop around Mandarin's neck, and
each end OF the hawser fastened to the
drum Of winch" engine. The engines
were started at the same time and ran
slowly at first until the hawser was
taut about the animals neck. when the
speed was increased and the hawser
quickly frightened. In a minute and a
half the hind legs sank to the floor of
the cage and the elephant was uncon-
scious. Just eight minutes after the
engines had been started Mandarin
was pronounced dead. The cage con-
tanning the body was then hoisted
from the ship by crane and loaded
on barge, in which it was towed
about twenty miles out to sea and
sunk, the cage being weighted with
about 5000 pounds of old railroad
iron. Mandarin was the largest ele-
plant in captivity at the time of his
death. and had been with the Barnum
& Bailey circus for twenty-four years.
He weighed five tons and stood nine
feet ten inches high. Tho elephant
had recently become unmanageable,

What Has Been Going on
During the Past
Week.
EXPRESS COMPANY TO TEST
Seizure of Liquor at Newton Under c. o.
ID. Decision of supreme Court VIII BE
Contested by the Company-New Point
to BE Decided.

Newton, Nov. 6.-The recent deci-
sion of the supreme court in the mat.
ter of c. o. d. packages of liquor will
be given a test by case begun here
yesterday which bids fair to display
some sensational features.
At the time the supreme court de-
cided that liquor delivered by an eX-
press company, c. o. D., in this state
was made, the Adams Express agent
here held a large quantity of liquor
consigned c. o. d. to private persons
in this town. He sent to headquarters
for instructions, and after waiting for
ten days he received word that he
should deliver the stuff.
Before he could do this Rev. John
Ferguson swore out a warrant for it
and it was seized by the officers. 1t
is in a cell at the county Jail. 1t will
be tried and probably the question
will again be carried to the supreme
court to determine whether or not
sale of liquor could be consummated
by its delivery. This point the SUI
preme court failed to decide.
There are ninety-four gallons of
whisky, nine cases of beer ana three
kegs of beer in the stock seized by the
offipers

FOR CARE OF INEsRIATEs.
Counties Must Settle for Keeping of
Inmates at Asylum.

inmates at Asylum.
Des Moines, Nov. THE first bills
for the care of inebriates under the
new law have reached the Office of
the state auditor. They are from the
Mt. Pleasant hospital and are against
some twenty or more counties in the
state. The law provides that the ex-
pense of commitment and the main
tenance of inebriates shall be certi.
fed ana borne in the same manner as
for the insane. The charge for each
inebriate in a state hospital is there
fore $12 per month. This amount is
entered up against the county from
which the patient was sent and must
be paid by that county out of its in.
sane fund.
The law provides, as in the case
Of insane persons, that the state may
recover from the estates of the pa
tients. However, it is not supposed
that any great number of persons will
be able to reimburse the county and
the most of the expense of care and
treatment of inebriates will fall upon
the several counties of Iowa.
The counties are abundantly able
to bear this expense, however. Coun.
ties are required to levy tax for care
OF insane persons each year, and in
most instances the levy has been one
mill on re taxable property of the
county. This has brought in much
more money than was needed and
nearly every Iowa county has sew.
eral thousand dollars in its insane
fund. The Iowa code says: Taxes
thus levied cannot be used for any
other purpose" SO that the balance
on hand has accumulated from year
to year. AS dipsomaniacs and inc
briates ere regarded the same as in
sane patients by the new law, the
money on hand in the insane fund can
be used in settlement of the hospital
accounts, the first of which were Ger.
